Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • 1BPosition Projection

03/13/2021 - Spring Pro Training Experience - MD (MS) Raul is a strong 1B prospect who worked hard on his skills during the Spring Pro Training Experience. In the field, Raul makes the routine plays and works to keep his throws accurate to his target. Continuing to develop his athleticism can help Raul make more plays defensively. At the plate, this RHH sets up in a square stance and works to barrel up the baseball, spraying the ball to all fields. Raul can create more consistent contact by working through a more level swing path. Overall, Raul is a developing prospect who has the time and potential to further build upon his skills on the field.

02/15/2021 - National Evaluation and Tryout - Gambrills, MD In 8 short months, Raul has improved his 60 yard dash two full seconds. This is a testament to the hard work he's putting in on his overall conditioning. Defensively, he needs to continue to work getting lighter on his feet. At the plate, he showed line drive power to the pull-side. His aggressiveness resulted in many hard hit balls. We hope Raul continues to work hard to get where he wants to be.

06/23/2020 - Official Player Development Membership - Frederick, MD Raul is a 1B prospect who will graduate in 2026. In the field, Raul centers the ball in the middle of his body and makes the routine plays. He throws from a high 3/4 angle and keeps his throws accurate to his target. Getting into a lower fielding position can help Raul improve defensively. At the plate, this RHH sets up in a square stance and takes a short stride. He works to barrel up the baseball and drives to his pull side. Raul can improve as a hitter by maintaining center balance throughout his swing. With six more years to develop, Raul has the time and potential to further progress his skills on the 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).
