Scouting MLB Draft prospect Brody Bumila, the Massachusetts phenom with plus velocity

Left-hander Brody Bumila of Bishop Feehan High School in Massachusetts came out firing bullets this spring, reaching 100 mph in his first outing and 102 in a more recent start. I caught his start on Monday against rival Xaverian Brothers.Bumila’s stuff was a little down in the outing and you could see why some teams at least will not view him as a first-rounder even with that premium velocity. There were at least a half-dozen scouting directors there, several from teams picking in the top 10, as well as a crowd of scouts that was as large as I’ve seen at any single game all spring.Advertisement
