Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • RHP/1BPosition Projection

06/24/2010 - Omaha Pro Select Training and Tournament - Week 2 Richard continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities, especially in the mound where he now projects best for the next level. Arm strength has improved as he topped out at 80 mph with fastball showing a range of 75-80 mph with solid tailing action on a strong downhill plane. Off speed pitches show potential as being quality pitches at the next level. He attacks hitters, throwing strikes with all his pitches, changing speeds well and displayed the ability to hold runners close. Stock will continue to rise quickly as more arm strength is developed.

03/21/2010 - College PREP - Bowie, MD Jacob is a young, strong, 2-way player that Pitchers and plays 1B. He currently projects equal at both positions, and still has plenty of time to improve his overall skills at both. On the mound, Jacob is an aggressive pitcher that goes right after hitters. His overall mechanics are sound, and he stays balanced throughout his delivery. For a young Pitcher, Jacob can throw all of his pitches for strikes. Improvements on the mound can be made if Jacob can avoid falling off to 1st base, loosen his landing leg, and improve his glove side lead. At 1B, Jacob has okay hands and makes plays on balls hit his way. He square the ball up and throws accurately to his target. Quicker footwork and actions, along with some instruction should help his defensive tool grades improve. Offensively, Jacob has a simple approach and solid base. He has pretty good balance and bat speed for his age, and has some pop in the gaps. A shorter stroke, more level swing, and spraying the ball to all fields will help offensive numbers get even better.

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).
