What is Tennessee Baseball Getting in Brady Buenik as a Player?

"Brady is a big, strong, and athletic pitcher who has three high-level pitches. His fastball is usually in the mid-90s, but reached the upper 90s often throughout last year. His secondary pitches are also great. His slider is hard, but he can also throw a slower curve. His splitter is also high quality and falls off the table," Thompson said.

What Type of Person is Brady Buenik?

"Brady is a great person too. He is a strong student and always polite to his teachers and classmates. He is the best teammate too. Being a pitcher-only he is a huge fan of all his teammates and celebrates their successes more than his own," Thompson said.

I am excited for Brady to sign with Tennessee because it is one of the best programs in the country, and I look forward to seeing him pitch in Omaha!" Thompson said.
