In the field, David shows athleticism with agile range that allow him to make difficult plays. He shows a low fielding position and firm hands as he fields ground balls. David has raw talent and needs to work on his mechanics to be more efficient in the field. After fielding, he makes clean exchanges into a quick arm action from a high 3/4 arm slot. David's raw velocity has increased from 64mph to 69mph since past events he attended. He makes accurate throws to his targets by using his body's momentum at his release, throwing the ball on a line.

Tool Grade Scale

Our main goals with the BF "10-70" Scouting Scale are to provide the player with a realistic evaluation of his "PRESENT" abilities (what he can do today), and to provide college coaches with information they can use to identify and/or compare potential recruits.

Tools are graded for all players and pitchers, regardless of age or graduation year. However, for High School players we use only grades 20-70 (grades 10-18 do not apply), while for Middle School players we use only grades 10-52 (grades 55-70 do not apply).
