Notes

Comments

5/05/25
Uncommitted, standing at an athletic 6-foot, 173 pounds. Hit three hole and played second base for the Orioles going 2-for-4 on the day with a double. At the plate, the right-handed hitter takes a direct path to the baseball and consistently makes contact no matter the location in the zone. Showing increasing feel to leverage the ball in the air, something that can continue to tick up with added strength.
4/19/25

Helms would hit out of the cleanup spot for his Hartford squad during their first game Saturday, going 3-for-5 with 2 RBIs and two runs scored. The right-handed bat showcased a simple all-field approach with a balanced base and medium stride that allowed the sophomore to consistently get into a position of launch. Athleticism and polish are obvious parts of Helms' profile, making him a must-know name in Wisconsin's 2027 class. 6-foot, 174-pound frame.

3/19/25

+ INF/OF Brady Helms (Hartford, 2027) showed smooth actions and athleticism during the defensive portion of the event with a rangy first step laterally. He ran a quick 7.18-second 60-yard dash. At 6-foot, 174 pounds, he displayed a compact swing and consistently drove the ball to all fields. Helms projects to add size and strength as he matures and will certainly add to his raw power tool in the future.

6/20/24

INF/OF Brady Helms (Hartford Union, 2027) was a standout underclassmen at the event. Standing at 5-foot-10, 170-pounds with room for added muscle, the right-hander worked the middle of the field throughout his round of batting practice. Showing the ability to stay inside the baseball and extend past contact, Helms was able to consistently find the barrel and hit line drives. Defensively Helms showed a strong arm and steady actions for his age in the outfield, up to 83 mph. In the infield Helms showed the ability to make plays on the move and make accurate throws, his arm played at 78 across the diamond.
