Carson Keithley, LHP, Alvin, 2020
Uncommitted. Estimated 5-foot-11, 170-pound athletic frame. The left-hander throws from a high ¾ slot with a loose arm swing. He’s a good athlete on the mound and repeats his delivery very well. His fastball was 83-85 mph and was 81-83 mph late in his outing. Threw the fastball with the command to all four quadrants of the zone, flashing arm-side run. Also threw a big curveball at 67-71 mph, touching 74 mph with 11-5 action. Has a great feel for the pitch and landed it for a lot of called strikes on both sides of the plate and was able to get plenty of swings and miss with it.
