School: Corona (Calif.) HS Drafted/Committed: Auburn
Age At Draft: 18.8
BA Grade: 50/Extreme
Bingaman transferred to Corona High in California ahead of his senior season, joining fellow 2025 prospects Seth Hernandez, Billy Carlson and Brady Ebel to form one of the most talented high school rosters that scouts have ever seen. Bingaman is a two-way player with a 6-foot-1, 200-pound frame who could likely make an impact as a hitter in college, but whose pro future lies on the mound. He has some depth in his arm action and throws from a higher, three-quarters slot with a bit of effort in his finish but solid strikes. Bingaman has pushed his low-90s fastball up to 95. It’s a high-spin heater with great vertical riding life that should allow it to consistently miss bats at the top of the zone and play up from its velocity. He pairs the fastball with a high-spin 12-to-6 curve in the upper 70s and low 80s. The shape and spin of the pitch should make it a nice complement to his fastball, though there are times when hitters can track the movement reasonably well out of his hand. Bingaman rounds out his arsenal with a firm, upper-80s changeup. As a position player, Bingaman stands out for his strength in the righthanded batter’s box, with arm strength that would be a nice fit at third or right field. He mostly played right field for Corona, in deference to Ebel at third base who was there in deference to Carlson at shortstop. He’s committed to Auburn but could fit in rounds 3-7 on draft day.
Scouting Grades: Hit: 45 | Power: 50 | Run:40 | Field: 45 | Arm: 55. Fastball: 55 | Curveball: 50 | Changeup: 45 | Control: 50.

Bingaman has elevated his profile over the past couple years. After reaching 91 mph last year, Bingaman now pitches in the low 90s and can hit 95 from a high-energy delivery. He throws from a high arm slot and gets good carry on his fastball, helping him miss bats when he elevates. There isn’t a lot of physical projection in his strong, compact frame, but Bingaman pairs what’s already good velocity for his age with one of the better curveballs in the 2025 high school class. It’s a big-breaking, high-spin curveball with good depth at 75-80 mph, enabling him to get a lot of whiffs by attacking hitters up in the zone with his fastball and changing eye levels with his curve. Bingaman has a firm changeup but it’s a below-average pitch he rarely uses. Bingaman has hit as well on the showcase circuit, but his professional future looks best on the mound.
