Official Scouting Report

  • SS/2BPosition Projection

01/16/2023 - National Showcase - Gambrills, MD Michael is a SS who will graduate in 2024. Tall frame athletic build with strength present and room to add throughout. At SS, he takes aggressive routes to batted balls, with quick/fluid feet, and showed ability to play through the ball. He works from down to up and fields from an athletic/low fielding position with a low funnel. Showed a glove angle with soft hands out front. Made on-line throws consistently from a 3/4 arm slot with an arm velocity up to 79 mph. At the plate, he hits from an athletic and square stance. He is centered at contact and has natural juice in swing. Showed quick hands with a good lower half turn. A direct barrel allows him to hit balls hard into both gaps with a bat exit velocity up to 88 mph. With another year of growth and development, we foresee Michael having a bright future on the baseball field.

12/27/2022 - Baseball Factory Christmas Camp & Tournament at Pirate City - Session 2 Michael is a tall, athletic SS who has a promising future on the diamond. At SS, defensive abilities are solid as he displays clean / smooth actions. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork as he works to square ground balls but needs to play through with his body. Glove action is clean but needs to present earlier and more out front. He utilizes his foot quickness (7.18 60 time) in covering a lot of ground in the MIF. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he continues to shine, displaying well above average hitting / power potential through a squared setup. Hands are quick (88 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields with gap-to-gap pop, Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. Michael has a lot of potential and will get looks from the collegiate coaches as he continues to progress his game.

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).
