Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • LHP/1BPosition Projection

01/18/2013 - Baseball Factory National Spring Training at Pirate City Burroughs continues to show as a LHP/1B that will graduate in 2015. At 1B, feet are active as he works to square ground balls, displaying clean hands. He shows proper footwork around the bag and is a solid receiver. Throws are accurate but needs to build more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows a balanced setup. Hands are smooth / loose and works through a level swing path. For hitting grades to continue to improve, he needs to improve bat speed and work to stay inside the ball to utilize all fields. Power numbers will continue to improve as he learns to use his lower half more. At the event, he was 4 for 6 with a 2B. On the mound, fastball shows a range of 70-72 mph with arm side run. Breaking ball displays 2/8 shape with gradual break. He shows a feel for his changeup with fading action. Control is a plus as he throws strikes with all his pitches. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as more arm strength is developed. Mental makeup is a plus as he is very coachable and works hard.

09/30/2012 - College PREP - Charlotte, NC Michael is a 2015 LHP that has a tall/lanky/thin pitchers body. On the mound, he throws three pitches, with his fastball sitting from 74-76 MPH. His curve-ball has 2/8 shape with flashes of sharp break, but consistently tight spin, from 59-63 MPH. His change-up is his best off-speed pitch, throwing it consistently for strikes, with arm-side run and velocity sitting 70-72 MPH. He throws from a high 3/4 arm slot with long easy arm action and good front side extension. He is on-time with his separation, with good smooth rhythm/tempo, level shoulders and a complete finish. His stride is too stiff, he throws across his body, and at times lands awkwardly. Offensively, he has a square/crouched setup, level bat path, okay balance and is a contact type hitter. Distributing his weight to the balls of his feet, off his heels will increase his balance throughout his swing, while loosening his grip will increase his bat speed. Overall, Michael is a promising, young, left handed pitcher with an ability to throw strikes and change speeds.

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).
