Brady
Cunningham

Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 14 in the state. Physically advanced frame, listed at 6-foot-2, 212-pounds. The right-handed hitter showed no fear at the plate despite being just a freshman, working with an easy and simple operation with little perceived effort, he sees spin well and battles deep into counts, utilizing quality pitch selection, also attacking early in the count when he sees a pitch he likes. Already has some present power with a max EV of 93 mph in-event, projects into much more as he continues to develop.

INF Brady Cunningham (Brother Rice, 2027) was one of the more physical freshmen in attendance, listed at 6-foot-2, 205-pounds with present strength throughout. The right-handed hitter delivered a heavy barrel throughout his round of BP, averaging 87.3 mph for his EV with a max of 92.6 mph, staying on top of the baseball throughout his round. Power potential should continue to present itself as he matures and creates more loft in his swing.

INF/RHP Brady Cunningham (Brother Rice, 2027) stood out as a two-way prospect this weekend. A recent PBR Junior Future Games participant, Cunningham has been a standout at seemingly every tournament we’ve seen him at this summer and this weekend was no different. Cunningham stands in at a physical 6-foot-1, 195-pounds with strength throughout. Starting on the mound Sunday morning, Cunningham navigated a two-pitch mix to get himself through three scoreless innings, scattering three hits and two walks, while also punching out five in the outing. Cunningham’s fastball worked 78-79 mph, T80 with mostly 4-seam action. He paired the fastball with an 11/5-shaped breaking ball that seemed to be thrown with more conviction than previously seen this summer. Cunningham can also swing it at the dish. A right-handed hitter, Cunningham has a very simple setup and swing at the plate that manufactures easy power to both gaps. Cunningham collected two hits on Sunday morning, including a pull-side triple.

RHP/INF Brady Cunningham (Brother Rice) was another name to know from the 2027 Cangelosi Sparks squad that ended up taking home the Championship at their age group. Cunningham has a 6-foot-1, 195-pound, strong, advanced frame and true two-way potential. In a quick look on Friday he squared up a baseball to center field, showing strong wrists and a heavy barrel.

Cunningham impressed for the second day in a row with his offensive pop. He barreled a ball to deep center for the Sparks for a double. 

Cunningham has a large, physically imposing frame from the right side of the plate. Setting up tall, he has a medium leg-lift load, a level bat path with natural lift and barrel control. Was on the barrel going 3-for-3 with a double and two RBIs. 

Gavin Stanislawski, Anthony Cartolano, Aidan Dillon, Mikey Watson, Jordan Culbreath and Brady Cunningham are just a few 2027s in attendance that showed well and are heading to Brother Rice next year. Of them, Stanislawski had one of the top all-around showings on the day. On the mound, he has a polished repertoire with a clean upside arm and fastball that topped at 82 mph. Stanislawski also had one of the more intriguing swings on the day, working highly-repeatable, short and flat through the zone with a knack for hard contact.
