Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • OF/2BPosition Projection

01/13/2023 - 2023 Baseball Factory Rookie Pre-Season All-America Tournament James is a 2026 OF/RHP who showcased his skills at the BF Rookie PSAA Tournament. In the OF, he tracks the ball well and fields from an athletic/low position. He takes aggressive routes to balls as he works behind the ball and showed a high 1-hand catch. He gets rid of ball, with a short arm stroke, and has an arm velocity up to 83mph. At the plate, he hits from an athletic and even stance with loose hands. A controlled glide step, with activated hands, and showed good barrel control. He hit line drives to all fields with a bat exit velocity up to 76mph. In live game action, James reached base 4 times with a triple and 3 base on balls. On the mound, he works downhill and keeps his eyes on target throughout his delivery. He attacks hitters with a FB that topped out at 80mph with good movement, a 10/4 shaped breaking ball with tight spin, and a changeup with with good sink that he throws with FB arm speed. With 3 years of growth and development, we foresee James making huge strides on the baseball diamond.

01/15/2021 - 2021 Baseball Factory Rookie Pre-Season All-America Tournament James is an athletic OF who makes the out filed a no fly zone for all hitters. In the OF, James showed off efficient feet, clean exchange and soft hands. These tools will continue to develop and have him ready to compete at the next level. Not only did he impress in the OF, but he also showed his barrel control off with a 62 mph exit velocity. His short stride, athletic stance and centered balance would help him make consistent hard contact. This is where he shined the most and can make an impact in any line up. Overall, James is solid in the OF with some tools that will continue to develop. We are excited to see where this game takes him in the future.

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).
