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.
