11/18/2022 - 2022 Baseball Factory Fall Prospects Tournament (HS) Tristen is a class of 2024 1B/RHP. In the field, he showed solid fielding mechanics and worked through the baseball. Had good throws across the diamond. Arm velo needs some improvement that could come with the help of a long toss program. At the plate, he hit from a tall stance. Did a good job hitting into a firm front side and showed feel for the barrel. On the mound, he did a good job finding a consistent balance point. Tried to engage his lower 1/2 in his delivery. Showed some feel for his pitches. Fastball worked up to 71 MPH. He shows off a large frame that could benefit by getting in the weight room to add athleticism. Tristen is a good kid that needs to continue his development. We hope to see him again soon.

08/07/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - San Jacinto, CA Tristen is a 1B/RHP who will graduate in 2024. Medium frame thick build with strength present and room to add throughout. At 1B, he starts with efficient footwork as he works to center ball and showed good lateral range. Tries to pick out hops and keeps ball in front of him. Throws from a 3/4 arm slot with an arm velocity on his throws to second base up to 79mph. On the mound, he showed good command on all of his pitches and keeps the ball down. Throws a FB that sits 74-76mph, an 11/5 shaped breaking ball that flashes good depth, and a changeup with arm side run that he throws with FB arm speed. A switch hitter, he starts with an athletic and open stance from both sides of the plate. Shows natural strength in swing and is centered at contact. A flat barrel path enables him to hit balls into both gaps with a bat exit velocity up to 88mph. With 2 years of continued growth and development, we foresee Tristen having a bright future on the baseball diamond.

01/23/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - San Bernardino, CA Tristen is a two-player in the 2024 class. As RHP he shows some qualities that have potential to be improved upon and grow to become a well-rounded pitcher. Currently he has a FB with some life that sits in the low 70s and curve ball with some 11-5 shape. His frame will continue to fill out as it continues to grow and he gains better body awareness. That will help create a big jump in the velocity as a whole. The frame coupled with his ability to have a controlled tempo in his delivery, throw strikes, and work efficiently will help him see quick improvements on the mound. On the field, he shows a good back hand and makes all the routine plays. Tristen has good bag awareness and presents a good target to those throwing across the diamond. Furthermore at the plate, he displays a good smooth swing and potential pop with an 81 mph exit velocity. With 2 1/2 years to develop he has time to build upon his skills.

11/10/2019 - National Tryout Plus - Wildomar (Los Angeles), CA Tristen worked out on the mound and at 3rd during his last workout with The Factory.

11/09/2017 - Baseball Factory Select Training & Competition in Arizona (Ages 12-14) Tristen continues to show steady progress in his baseball abilities. At the plate is where he shows best through a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He stays inside the ball, utilizing all fields through a line drive approach. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. At 1B, he displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Hands are clean but needs to present more out front. Feet are aggressive as he attacks balls and plays through with his body. Range will increase as he continues to improve foot quickness. Throws are accurate but needs to build more arm strength through a long toss program. Mental makeup is a plus as he is very coachable and works hard to be the best player he can be.

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).
