The Numbers That Matter
The three tools every scout measures first.
These three measurements form the foundation of every professional scouting report.
If you don't know exact numbers, estimate your best guess. Scouts estimate all the time.
Tool — Arm Strength

Throwing distance demonstrates arm strength, which scouts prioritize for position versatility.

Contact quality is a primary predictor of overall offensive value and consistency.

Tool — Running
How often does your son beat out a ground ball to first?
Speed and instinct on the bases matter at every level of competitive baseball.
How many steals does he usually have per year?
Baserunning aggression reveals instincts and ability to create value beyond the batter's box.
On a clean triple (ball in the gap), can he make it to third standing up?
