A full numerical Player IQ is withheld until an official performance sample exists. The profile below still evaluates verified role, position, level, handedness, organization context, and development stage.

WHAT THE MODEL USES

  • Official position and role
  • Current organization and level
  • Bats and throws
  • Verified physical profile
  • Draft or prospect context when available
IQDugout position- and role-aware Baseball IQ model · Baseball IQ 4.3 Data confidence: Insufficient
Role and position Shortstop

Official listed role and positional responsibility.

Organization Dunedin Blue Jays

Current official team or organization context.

Athletic profile Not yet verified

Public game data does not directly measure raw speed, explosiveness, or agility.

Arm strength Not yet verified

A private scouting-grade arm score is not inferred from position alone.

Decision making Not yet verified

A numerical grade requires meaningful game or pitch-level evidence.

Winning impact Not yet verified

Leadership, confidence, and clubhouse value are not invented.

Accuracy safeguard — IQDugout does not invent Arm strength, Raw speed and athletic testing, Leadership and clubhouse impact, Confidence and mental toughness when verified evidence is unavailable. Those areas remain clearly labeled rather than receiving false precision.

READINESS

Single-A Assignment

The official assignment is Single-A. IQDugout displays the assignment as development context, not as an MLB-readiness grade.

CALL-UP OUTLOOK

Not Determined

Level alone cannot support an individual call-up judgment. Performance, health, roster status, role fit, and organization need would also have to be evaluated.

PROJECTION

Shortstop

This is the player's currently listed role or position context, not a prediction of a future MLB role.

DEVELOPMENT RISK

Not Graded

Development risk is not graded from league level or draft year alone.

Ceiling
Not Graded

Ceiling is withheld until supported player-specific scouting or performance evidence is available.

Floor
Not Graded

Floor is withheld because a league assignment does not establish a player's likely outcome.

Organization
Toronto Blue Jays

Organization rank: Unavailable from current official MLB data

ETA
Not Determined

No exact or broad ETA is shown without supported individual performance, development, health, and roster evidence.

DEVELOPMENT TREND

Full-Season Development

The current official assignment is Single-A. Assignment level is factual context and is not treated as proof of promotion readiness.

IMPROVEMENT AREAS

  • Evaluate sustained performance with level and age context
  • Review role fit, health, roster status, and organization need

SCOUT REPORT

Hailing from a Jesuit High School program in Oregon that produced first-round arms Mick Abel and Noble Meyer, Cooney headed south from his Portland area school to attend the University of Oregon for college ball. He was the only true freshman to start on opening day for the Ducks in what turned out to be an up-and-down first collegiate season for the infielder. Things clicked as a sophomore for Cooney, who earned All Big Ten first-team honors while leading Oregon in hitting and stolen bases. It's been more of the same as the Ducks' top bat during his junior campaign. If you get just one look at Cooney, he might not jump off the page because he doesn't possess overly loud individual tools. Watch him for a while, though, and you can't help but leave liking what he can do. There is some definite bat talent from the right side of the plate, with a good feel for the barrel and an advanced approach that has led to him walking as much as he's striking out. He has a definite hit-over-power profile, but he has been getting to more damage this year and has been really locked in during conference play. Cooney has above-average speed and knows how to steal a base. He plays with an edge in a Dustin Pedroia kind of way, an aggressiveness scouts like. He initially lost his starting job at short to teammate Maddox Molony, then worked his way back into the starting lineup at second base. He's a solid defender there, with some evaluators thinking he could still handle the left side of the infield at the next level.
