Brody
Brehm

The Broncos picked up their first win of the year thanks in large part to Brehm. The two-way standout broke the game open in the sixth inning with a pull-side grand slam, continuing his recent stretch of loud performances after also leaving the yard at the San Diego Preseason All-State in January. At 6-foot-5, 225 pounds, Brehm brings an intimidating presence both in the box and on the mound. The frame is physical and imposing, and the power potential is obvious. Defensively, he once again showed soft hands and a sure glove at first base, making two impressive picks to bail out his infielders on errant throws, one of them saving a run and preventing Temecula Valley from taking a lead early on. The two-way ability is real (FB: 84-86, SL 71-72 at SDPSAS), and his confidence continues to grow. Brehm is quickly making a name for himself in San Diego, and with performances like this, he’s firmly planting himself on the radar as a fast-rising 2027 prospect.

Brehm entered the event as an under-the-radar name and left as a name to follow moving into the 2026 season, putting together a strong showing across multiple facets of the game. Offensively, he posted loud metrics across the board, including a 96 mph max exit velocity, 90.5 mph average EV, and a 374-foot max batted distance. That power translated immediately into live action, as he homered in his first at-bat, showing off the same pull-side power he displayed during BP. Brehm also flashed two-way ability on the mound, sitting 84-86 mph with his fastball while spinning it up to 2333 rpm. He showed feel and command of his slider at 71–72 mph, which featured heavy horizontal break with late vertical action, giving him a reliable secondary weapon. With a strong, physical 6-5, 226-pound frame that already stands out and still has room to continue developing over the next two years, Brehm looks like a prospect whose arrow is pointing up and one who will be worth tracking closely throughout the 2026 baseball season.
