Gavin Brunsman

Class of 2022 / 3B

Player Information

  • Graduating Class: 2022
  • Primary Position: 3B
    Secondary Position: SS
  • High School: Bishop Ireton
    State: VA
  • Summer Team: Prime Time Aces
  • Height: 6-2
    Weight: 185lbs
  • Bat/Throw: R/R

Gavin Brunsman - Good combination of ride and velocity, with a very low release on the fastball. Up to 88.1 with 22.1” of VB max. Executed an elevated heater with a -3.8 approach angle, which should play at the top of the zone very well. Has low-spin, but the outlier release and feel for backspin make up for it and more. Throws a sweeping CB at 73.6, most of the spin is sidespin, though he does get some topspin on it and creates some depth. Has a ton of HB on the CH (21.4” on average) and completely reverses the spin-profile on the pitch from his FB to play off it well.
