  • OF/3BPosition Projection

03/26/2023 - National Showcase - Manalapan, NJ Mykell is a class of 2024 3B/OF. Tall frame athletic build, with broad shoulders, and strength present. In the infield, he shows active feet and athletic actions. Eyes behind glove, with good footwork, on balls hit to his glove side. Made on-line throws from a high 3/4 arm slot, with momentum towards his target, and an arm velocity up to 77mph. In the OF, he starts with efficient feet and covers ground. He tries to play through the baseball and fields off his left foot. At the plate, he hits from an upright and even stance. Has natural strength at contact with a good bat angle at contact. Showed a good lower half turn and a fast barrel through the hitting zone. A flat barrel enables him to line drives to all fields with a bat exit velocity up to 88mph during BP. With another year of continued development, we foresee Mykell making huge strides on the baseball field.

01/13/2023 - 2023 Baseball Factory Pre-Season All-America Tournament Mykell is a 2024 OF/3B who showcased his talents at the BF Pre-Season All-America Tournament. In the outfield, Mykell tracks the ball well and has a good pre-pitch step. He does a good job of attacking ground balls and uses his momentum into his throw. He throws from a low 3/4 arm slot and showcased a velo of 78mph. At the plate, the left handed hitter stands closed and has a short-effective stride and load. He has quick hands and a level swing path with a line drive approach to all fields. Mykell showcased a top exit velo of 83mph. With a couple more years to grow and mature, we expect that Mykell will continue to improve on the baseball field.

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).
