@Acebaileythefut @dannybarrand_ Too early to know. Though I'm sure he will be developed as a starter.

@BenBadler @dannybarrand_ Is he going to be a starter or reliever?

100 mph at 16 years old in the Dominican Republic. On Friday I saw Yoel King, one of the top pitchers in the 2027 international class. 6-6, 245 lbs, power arm up to 97 mph here, 100 mph in other outings this year, slider up to 90. Big arm for the San Diego Padres on Jan. 15.

@GabeMueller21 Yes

@BenBadler is he still expected to sign with SD?

@BozMont406 Yes

@BenBadler Does he have more then a fastball

Not sure how obvious it is from the video, but he is a massive human being.

Welcome to the Top 100, Luis Hernandez 👀 The @SFGiants teenage shortstop joins the list today. baseballamerica.com/rankings/2026-…

@BenBadler I wonder how he compares to one time Mariners 6’10” pitching prospect Ryan Anderson

99 mph today from 6-foot-9 LHP Brody Bumila (2026) and dominant in Rhode Island. 10 batters faced: 1. SO swinging 2. SO swinging 3. SO swinging 4. SO swinging 5. HBP 6. SO swinging 7. SO swinging 8. SO looking 9. SO swinging 10. SO swinging

@nucklecurve Pretty good year all around for him and it's still April

@BenBadler Bumila going to be a top 20 pick huh? His basketball skills arent bad either

@WillDud6906775 He should

@BenBadler Do you think he gets a shot this year?

James Tibbs since joining the Dodgers is hitting .309/.430/.634 in 215 PAs between Double-A and Triple-A.
