Official Scouting Report

  • Position Projection

03/24/2017 - Dubai Select Training - Dubai, UAE Zach continues to stay consistent as a young, athletic switch hitter. He also shows position versatility in both the IF and OF. Very good footwork, understand angles and has a good release when throwing. Offense 1. Solid from both sides of the plate 2. Good barrel accuracy 3. Needs to work on keeping backside through (spins) Defense 1. Footwork 2. Good, quick hands 3. Work on improving throwing hand placement when fielding

03/25/2016 - Interactive Video Program - Dubai, UAE Zach continues to work hard. He showed this time behind the plate. He sits in well and tracks pitches into a soft mitt. Transfer/exchange is clean as he replaces his footwork and works in-line toward 2B - pop times of 2.80. Offensively, Zach stands in well with a square setup with patience, waiting for his pitch. He takes an aggressive hack and likes the pitch inside, pulling it down the line. Increased power will come with more lower 1/2 drive and with overall physical maturity. Zach is a young player who has energy and a ton of time to progress.

04/06/2015 - College PREP - Dubai, UAE Zach is a switch-hitting 1B who brings energy to the field. At the plate, he displays a square setup with rhythm in his hands. Swing is level as his upper & lower 1/2 stay connected well. He squares the ball up and hits line-drives. Defensively, Zach is aggressive and hustles to come and get the ground ball. He fields the ball out in front and has a clean exchange to throw. Zach is young and still has a ton of time to physically mature and develop his game. Overall abilities will improve with work on the following.

Offense
1. Balance throughout swing
2. Extension through finish
3. Avoid glove flip
Defense
1. Approach to GB
2. Lower fielding position
3. Arm strength (long toss)

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).
