Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • LHPPosition Projection

01/18/2019 - 2019 Baseball Factory All-America Pre-Season Rookie Tournament Ethan is a tall, solid 1B/LHP who has a promising future on the diamond. At 1B, he displays clean/smooth actions. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Glove action is soft/sure and presents well out front. Range will increase as he improves his foot quickness. At the plate he continues to shine through an athletic setup. Hands are quick (81 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields with gap-to-gap pop. Hitting abilities will continue to improve as he works to get his stride foot down sooner to work on time. On the mound, fastball showed a range of 70-74 mph with tailing action. Breaking ball displays 1/7 shape with late/sharp break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup and shows a solid feel for the pitch. Getting on a long toss program will help to increase arm strength which will aid in his development on the mound. With 3 years to further develop, Ethan has the makings of a special type player and will get looks from collegiate coaches as he continues to progress his game.

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).
