10/06/2021 - Arizona Sophomore Fall Classic
Jack continued to show off his skills at the AZ Fall Classic. Defensively, he wowed the coaches with his arm talent but also did a very good job blocking the baseball with proper mechanics and received the ball with soft hands. Offensively, he uses a simple set up with an explosive lower half to make hard consistent contact from gap to gap. Jack continues to impress the coaching staff of BF and with continual progression the sky is the limit for this young man.
01/15/2021 - 2021 Baseball Factory Rookie Pre-Season All-America Tournament
Jack is an absolute stud catching prospect who will graduate in 2024. During this event, he would show great defensive work behind the plate posting some of the highest ratings in his receiving that we saw at this event. We felt he looked very comfortable in his stance, smooth as he received the ball and quick/clean with his blocking footwork. With an impressive 88 mph raw velocity and quick exchange as he threw to 2nd, Jack posted a 2.14 pop time. This was one of the best times recorded at this event. Not only did he impress behind the dish, but Jack also showed his power off at the plate. His fast hands and centered approach helped Jack provide a consistent approach at the plate. Overall, we were extremely impressed with Jack. Keep your eye out for him in the future.

Jack is a nice player with a bright future.
08/02/2018 - Baseball Factory Pro Select Training at Historic Dodgertown (Ages 12-14)
Jack is an athletic and talented 2024 2-way prospect that was eager to learn and made several adjustments throughout the week at Vero Beach. In the OF, Jack is on time with his pre-step, he anticipates the ball off the bat, and plays through ground balls. He creates momentum in his lower half and makes accurate throws. At the plate, Jack starts in an open stance, loads his hands back into the drive position, and stays balanced through contact. He needs to continue to attack the inside part of the ball, get his front foot down on time, and create backside rotation. On the bump, Jack gathers over the rubber, he separates on time, and has a loose arm action. He has tail on his fastball and throws it down in the zone for strikes. He needs to continue to work north to south and keep a strong front side. Jack will continue to improve with experience and we hope to see his progress in the future.
