Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • CPosition Projection

12/05/2010 - College PREP - McCook, IL Josh showed improvements in his tools behind the plate. Recieving and blocking skills are now near above average, showing as quality tools at the next level. Pop times displayed a range of 2.25-2.31 as he showed consistency and accuracy on his throws. Pop times will continue to drop as he stays on a long toss program to develop more arm strength. Offensively, Cooper displays a solid setup allowing him to keep hands inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a level swing path. He is patient but needs to be more aggressive on balls in the zone. Power numbers will continue to increase as he learns to load more and transfer weight properly through his lower half.

08/11/2010 - Pirate City World Series 2010 - Session 2 Cooper showed similar abilities that we had previously seen in Lisle, IL. He presents a big target behind the plate, displaying soft glove action. He is directional with his throws as he threw his lowest pop time of 2.22. Offensively, Joshua shows a quiet approach, showing a level swing path. He is very coachable, willing to make adjustments to be the best he can be.

06/13/2010 - College PREP - Chicago, IL Josh is a 2011 catcher. Behind the plate, he presents quiet hands when receiving and moves his head to the ball well. Needs to make a slight adjustment on balls thrown inside to right handed hitters. He covers the ball well when blocking and takes good angles on occasion but will need to become more explosive with his feet. When throwing, he squares himself well to 2B and transfer the ball from glove to hand efficiently. He is very accurate but he will need to increase overall arm strength. Offensively, he presents a quiet approach with a short stride. He has good weight transfer on occasion and hits it where pitched. He wraps the bat slightly which makes him a little long to the ball and can affect his extension through the contact point. Overall he has some time to make some adjustments and build on the strengths he already has.

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).
