PBKC Top Fastball Class of 2027: Bubba Day
February 10, 2026
As we look back on the 2025 summer tournament circuit here in Kansas City, we’ll be breaking down the top players by tool from each class — based on evaluations from our scouting team at Homefield and Creekside. Follow along as we take a deep dive into these players and highlight the summers they put together. Each week will feature our top five players based on each tool from the class, presented in no particular order.

Bubba Day was one of the top two-way prospects we saw all summer, even though his long-term projection is as a weekend starter on the mound for Florida State. A 6-foot-4, 190-pound athlete, Day moves free and easy on the mound with long levers, plenty of room to add strength, and the overall athleticism to become a difference-maker at the next level and beyond.
At the 2025 Future Games, he topped at 93 mph with quality side-to-side movement from his 3/4 arm slot, making him especially tough on right-handed hitters. Pair that with a firm slider and he becomes a nightmare matchup, with the ability to work the ball in and away with intent. We also saw him firsthand this past summer at the KCPI with the Nebraska Prospects.
