Official Scouting Report

  • OFPosition Projection

06/18/2021 - Baseball Factory All-State Tournament (HS) Gavin is an OF who will graduate in 2023. Medium frame athletic build with strength to come. In the OF, starts with active feet and takes good routes to balls. Shows ability to work behind and through the ball while keeping his feet active. Good glove angle as he fields the ball off of his left foot with a clean gather. Short arm action into a high 3/4 release point with on-line throws into the infield at 80mph. A right-handed hitter, hits from an athletic and closed stance. Smooth swing who swings with intent. Rotates hips as he gets his hips thru the swing with good extension. Hard/square contact and ability to hit line drives into both gaps. Hit multiple balls hard in live game action with a bat exit velocity of 81mph. With continued development, we foresee him having the opportunity to play at the next level.

11/20/2020 - Texas Regional Offensive Skills Weekend Gavin is an OF prospect who worked hard on his skills during the Texas Regional Skills Weekend. At the plate, this RHH sets up in a closed stance and takes a centered stride. He shows fluid rhythm and hits against a strong front side, producing solid contact. Activating his hands more in his load can help Gavin barrel up more baseballs. Overall, Gavin is a solid prospect who has the potential to further build upon his skills on the field.

11/08/2020 - National Evaluation and Tryout - Midland, TX Gavin is an OF prospect who continues to showcase his skills on the field. In the OF, Gavin shows fluid footwork and is agile moving to the ball. He gets into an athletic position and fields the ball out in front with soft hands. His exchange is clean and he gains ground well on his throws, working to keep them accurate to his target. Long tossing can help Gavin build up his arm strength. At the plate, this RHH sets up in a square stance and takes a short stride. He maintains center balance and produces solid line drives to all fields. Gavin can barrel up more baseballs by working through a more level swing path. Overall, Gavin is a solid prospect who has the potential to further build upon his skills on the field.

07/14/2020 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Frisco (DFW), TX Gavin is an athletic R/R OF who has speed and a solid all-around skill-set. In the OF, he takes a quick first step and hustles to track down fly-balls hit to his right and left (60 yard = 6.78). He works behind the ball, gathers well. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. With the bat, this righty stands in well with a square/athletic setup and centered balance. Hands are loose and work through the zone as he connects and sprays line-drives. Added power will come with more lower 1/2 drive. With 3 years to further develop, Gavin has abilities with time and room to develop.

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).
