Brumbaugh can dial up his fastball with some of the best velocity in the class. He’s an athletic righthander who can reach 96 mph, generating good armside run on his fastball from his low three-quarters slot. His excellent arm speed is evident on his fastball and his slider, which he throws in the low 80s with spin in the 2,100-2,400 rpm range, using it effectively to righthanded hitters by starting it on the outer third before it breaks off to induce whiffs and chase. Brumbaugh throws a firm changeup in the upper 80s, though it’s not a big part of his repertoire right now. Yet some scouts prefer Brumbaugh as a position player. He has outstanding bat speed, making hard contact now with significantly more power projection given how he’s able to whip the barrel through the zone, though it does come with a higher swing-and-miss rate. Brumbaugh is a solid-average runner with a plus arm from shortstop.
