Week 1 Scout Blog

2026 RHP Brooks Bartram, Braden River, Uncommitted

Bartram impressed in relief last week against Lakewood Ranch, firing 2.2 shutout innings with three strikeouts while touching 94 mph on a lively fastball. Coming off an injury, this was one of Bartram’s first outings back, and he looked to be in full form. He mixed in a sharp 79-81 mph slider for bite and an 84-86 mph changeup, showcasing clean arm action with his lean, athletic 6'0", 155-pound frame. Projectable uncommitted righty with easy velocity and swing-and-miss potential should be a name to follow throughout the spring.
