12/01/2023 - Baseball Factory Academic All-American Tournament Mason is a 2025 1B who showcased his skills during the BF Academic All-American Tournament. At 1B he presents a big target and is a natural leader on the field. He works to keep the ball in front of him and shows a good glove angle. Made accurate throws from a high 3/4 arm slot with a recorded arm velocity up to 77mph. At the plate he hits from an athletic and square stance with comfortable hands. He takes an aggressive swing and shows natural juice in his swing. He has on-time load and hits into a firm frontside. In live game action, Mason reached base 3 times with 2 singles, and a base on balls. As he continues to fill out, we see Mason having opportunities to play at the next level.

06/29/2023 - Cape Cod Select Training & Competition (HS) Mason continues to show improvements in his baseball abilities at Cape Cod event. At the plate, hitting / power potential has improved through a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He has strength in his swing and stays inside the ball with gap -to-gap pop. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn. At 1B, he shows smooth / fluid actions. He displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Hands are clean and presents out front. He moves well laterally with range improving as he increases foot quickness. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. Mental makeup is a plus as he has a positive attitude, works hard, and is very coachable.

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).
