The brother of former Red and current Giant TJ Hopkins, Brody Hopkins was a two-way player, starting at College of Charleston, where he pitched very sparingly over two years. He moved to Winthrop and got the chance to play the outfield and start, showing enough on the mound for the Mariners to take him in the sixth round of the 2023 Draft while signing him for an under-slot bonus of $225,000 with the intent to develop him as a pitcher. He got off to a tremendous start at Single-A Modesto and was traded to the Rays before the Trade Deadline in a move for Randy Arozarena.
Long and loose, the 6-foot-4 right-hander has some good stuff he can rely on. While his fastball was typically in the 93-96 mph range in college, he could reach back for 98, and he’s carried that promising velocity into his first full season. His low-80s slider can flash plus at times and misses a good amount of bats and plays well off the riding fastball out of his low release height. His mid-80s changeup lags behind the other two offerings, and he's also added a cutter that helps play between the fastball and slider.
The biggest thing that could hold Hopkins back is his command. He walked 7.3 per nine at Winthrop in 2023 but exhibited promising steps forward in the Seattle system before the trade. The Rays were in need of promising arms with starting capabilities, and they’ll hope Hopkins can continue his upward trajectory now that he’s focused on the mound.

The brother of former Red and current Giant T.J. Hopkins, Brody Hopkins was a two-way player, starting at College of Charleston, where he pitched very sparingly over two years. He moved to Winthrop and got the chance to play the outfield and start, showing enough on the mound for the Mariners to take him in the sixth round of the 2023 Draft and signing him for an under-slot bonus of $225,000 with the intent to develop him as a pitcher.
The Mariners are hoping the athleticism Hopkins showed on the mound will help him as he turns his focus to the mound full time. Long and loose, the 6-foot-4 right-hander has some good now stuff he can rely on. While his fastball was typically in the 93-96 range, he could reach back for 98 mph and it’s not hard to dream on more consistent velocity in the future. His low-80s slider can flash plus at times and misses a good amount of bats. His mid-80s changeup lags behind the other two offerings, but it could be fringe-average in time.
The biggest thing that could hold Hopkins back is his command. He walked 7.3 per nine at Winthrop in 2023, but the Mariners plan to let him at least begin his pro career as a starter, with the hope that no longer splitting his focus along with that athleticism, could unlock some upside potential.
