Carson Brumbaugh, MIF/RHP, Uncommitted

Brumbaugh played in minimal events this summer due to an injury, but he took full advantage of his time on the diamond. He has a strong 6’2” 190lb frame with noticeable strength already present in the lower half. There’s a lot going on with the swing with a medium leg kick and active hands, but this doesn’t stop him from consistently getting the barrel to the ball. 

He shows an excellent feel at the plate with impressive barrel dexterity that allows him to cover all parts of the zone and impact the baseball with authority to all parts of the field. He comfortably possesses an above-average hit tool with present average raw power that could blossom into an above-average tool. 

In the field, he showed rhythmic feet and soft hands, indicating that he could handle the six spot at the highest level. In the one event that he did play, he was recovering from an arm injury and only played second base, but there is very real arm strength present here as well, as he was running it up into the mid-90s on the mound prior to this injury. 

Brumbaugh is an absolute toolshed with present, innate feel for the barrel who should continue to rise up boards as the 2025 draft creeps closer.

We're highlighting incoming junior two-way athlete Carson Brumbaugh, an uncommitted Oklahoma native who's been one of the premium performers of the summer. He starred at the PBR Future Games, at Area Codes, and now he's headed to Milwaukee to take part in the inaugural PBR All-American Game.

 

PBR's VP of Scouting Shooter Hunt had this to say regarding Brumbaugh's electrifying performance at Lake Point as a member of Team Oklahoma inside the Future Games at the end of July: "Brumbaugh stole the show during workouts as his mic-dropping moment included an array of home runs belted with an average exit velocity of 97.9 mph and a max of 104 mph. 

The right-handed hitter nearly broke the Blast Motion metrics, and had the company buzzing about the advanced analytics of his bat and hand speed combined with elite rotational acceleration... At 6-foot-1, 189 pounds his frame is wiry-athletic with some lean strength present, and more likely on the way. 

A versatile defender who can play anywhere on the diamond, he only amplified his value by hopping on the bump and running his fastball up above 93 mph with a quick arm and significant effort out front. His wipeout slider is a real weapon, and while he warrants an initial look as a position player, the fall back option as a power-armed right-hander is reassuring."
