Brua is an imposing southpaw that stands in at 6-foot-5, 218-pounds. He showed feel to spin his fastball (avg. 2280 rpm) that played with heavy arm-side run (avg. -18.3” HM) and carry (avg. 15.9” IVB) through the zone at 84-85 mph. He had a feel for the zone with his slider at 76-78 mph, playing with short vertical action from a 2/8 shape.

5/16/24

Uncommitted. Stands in at an imposing 6-foot-5, 217-pounds, and got the ball to start for Mundelein. The southpaw impressed with his composure in big spots in the game; he gave up a solo home run in the top of the first inning, but continued to throw strikes and go right at the opposing lineup, and trust his stuff. He has a simple and repeatable delivery, with clean and loose arm action to pair from a ¾ window. His fastball played with natural arm-side run at 81-82 mph (T83), while his go-to secondary offering was a 75-76 mph late-breaking slider that earned whiffs throughout his outing. Brua turned in a final line of: W, 6 IP, 3 ER, 4 H, 3 BB, 6 K.

2/10/24

Staying on the topic of physical prospects from Saturday, CIF Baris Brua (Mundelein, 2025) falls right into that category with his durable 6-foot-5, 217-pound frame. The L/L first-baseman took an impressive round of BP, scorching balls as high as 95.6 mph for his max EV, rocking his hands back with rhythm before transitioning into a flat path. He stayed through the baseball up the middle, and also showed the ability to stay through it the other way with authority. At first base, Brua displayed steady actions and appeared comfortable around the bag.

2/10/24

Positional Profile: LHP

Delivery: Simple, repeatable delivery. High leg-lift into balance point, tall/fall, lands in-line.

FB: T81, 80-81 mph. Has true 2-seam feel, throws for strikes. T2110, 2086 average rpm.
SL: 73-74 mph. Short wrinkle, flashes 1/7 shape, developing. T2023, 1953 average rpm.
CH: 74-74 mph. Mostly straight actions, developing. T1752, 1677 average rpm.

Arm: LH. INF - 77 mph. Strong arm from a 3/4 arm slot. Short arm action.
Defense: Steady actions, comfortable around the bag, clean release.
Run: 4.37 30-yard dash.

6/05/23

LHP/1B Baris Brua (Mundelein, 2025) stands at 6-foot-5, 195-pounds. The left-handed hitter showed a clean and easy on-plane swing that produced a max exit velocity of 91 mph and a max distance of 328’. On the mound, he showed some quickness to his arm with a fastball that sat 76-79 mph, topping out at 80 mph working downhill with slight arm-side run.
