Official Scouting Report

  • Class Rating
  • 2BPosition Projection

07/28/2017 - Baseball Factory National World Series at Pirate City - Session 1 (Ages 14-18) Thomas is a talented 2018 2B who continues to improve his game. In the infield, he shows athletic actions charging the baseball and fields out in front. He is slick around the bag, giving good feeds to 2nd baseman and delivering a quick transfer when on the back end of a double play. His arm shows good carry across the diamond. At the plate, Thomas starts from an athletic stance and is direct and level through the zone. He lets the ball travel allowing him to hit balls hard the other way and make consistent contact. Getting through the zone quicker and using his lower half will help him generate some power. Thomas is a solid 2B prospect with plenty of room to grow.

04/09/2017 - College PREP - Lake Charles, LA Thomas is an athletic and talented 2018 2B prospect. As a 2B, Thomas presents a low/early glove; he is aggressive to the ball, and plays through the ball. On DP turns he needs to continue working on a quick/smooth exchange and getting his feet in a strong position to make an accurate throw. Working on funneling the ball from his glove to his arm slot and gaining momentum with his feet while throwing the ball will increase his overall skill set as well. At the plate, Thomas loads his hands, stays balanced throughout his swing, and gets extension through the ball. If he continues to loosen his grip on the bat (less tension), attack the inside part of the ball, and drive his back knee down into the ball, he will continue to drive the ball to all fields and increase his bat speed.

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).
