09/18/2024 - Arizona Junior Fall Classic (2026) Dominic French is a 2026 2B out of San Clemente, CA that recently played at the Arizona Junior Fall Classic. Simply put, this kid is a solid ball player. He makes every routine play. His range is phenomenal because he anticipates a lot. His first step could be a little quicker and that would only improve his range but again he still covers a lot of ground due to his ability to anticipate where the ball is going to go before it goes there. At the plate, the switch hitter had a solid weekend and used the entire field as he was able to collect three hits. He had two long fly balls that he slightly got underneath that could have very easily been doubles off the wall. We believe this kid has what it takes to play at the next level as we've had the luxury to coach him in multiple events and we can speak on his talent for days.

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).
