01/17/2025 - 2025 Baseball Factory Pre-Season All-America Tournament Sawyer,a 2026 catching prospect out of Costa Mesa, CA brings solid athleticism and defensive potential, with an above-average arm and projectable receiving skills. Offensively, the power tool is slightly ahead of contact ability, but overall, the bat showcased very well over the weekend with a ball that just missed leaving the yard. Athletic tool definitely plays, so improving consistency behind the plate and increasing barrel accuracy will continue to elevate the long-term potential for this prospect.

10/20/2024 - National Showcase - Orange County, CA Sawyer is a 2026 catcher from Costa Mesa, CA, who possesses a medium frame with a strong build and demonstrated impressive speed, running the 60-yard dash in 6.82 seconds. Behind the plate, he shows strong hands and a quiet, efficient setup with an easy sit. His front elbow hinge and in-line stride contribute to his smooth, controlled actions. On his blocks, he takes a short jab step, keeps his chest soft, and is quick to his feet. His best pop time is 2.25 seconds, with an arm velocity of up to 86 mph, showcasing both accuracy and arm strength. At the plate, he exhibits excellent hand separation and the ability to backspin the baseball, working well to the middle of the field and controlling the barrel with precision. As a rising junior, he has good upside and athletic actions, and with continued development, he is poised to enhance his skills and make an even greater impact in the years ahead.

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).
