INF/RHP Brayden Steinbecker (Manitowoc Lincoln, 2025)is another Prep Baseball Future Games participant who was in attendance during Saturday’s event. At the plate, he begins in a strong hitting position, a wide and open set-up. He makes good use of his lower half, using that aggressiveness, strong hands and compact swing to generate hard line drives through the middle of the field - Steinbecker maxed at 94 mph off the bat. His quick first step and soft hands have the makings of a quality infielder, as does his arm which reached 85 mph across the infield. His 7.25 60-yard dash was one of the better times of the day, adding speed to his already well-rounded overall game. On the pitching side, Steinbecker has a quick, repeatable delivery that leads into a short arm path and ¾ arm slot. His fastball reached 84.2 mph with a downhill angle and the ability to hit spots. The 73-74 mph curveball showed 11/5 shape with good break, a pitch he was able to land low in the zone. Steinbecker’s changeup flashed depth at 76 mph, a pitch thrown with fastball intent.

Steinbecker is listed at a wiry 6-foot-2, 168 pounds with quick-twitch and athleticism. He has a projectable frame and should continue to add size and strength. Steinbecker showed out well in batting practice, lacing line-drives to both gaps from a balanced swing and quick hands. He registered a top max exit velocity of 90 mph as evidence of this, and he also showed well in infield work, displaying a quick first step and soft hands fielding ground balls out in front. Steinbecker earned a spot on our first edition of the state’s Class of 2025 rankings, and he reiterated why that was the case over the weekend.
