Stands in at 6-foot-1, 145-pounds with plenty of room to fill out. Kenyon was impressive out of the bullpen in this look. The righty showed a five mph jump in fastball velocity from when we last saw him in February. Kenyon worked with a two-pitch mix including an 84-86 mph fastball that also had spin rates anywhere from 2100-2300 rpm. Kenyon also threw a sharp slider that had spin rates of over 2700 rpm. Kenyon struck out two in his one inning of work.
Positional Profile: RHP
Body: 5-11, 143-pounds. Thin frame. Plenty of room for continued growth.
Delivery: Stretch only. Works on line. Level shoulders. Front side opens early at times.
Arm Action: LH. Long arm action, high 3/4 arm slot.
FB: T75.9, 74.7-75.9 mph. Plays Straight. T2081, 1985 average rpm.
CB: 64.4-66.1 mph. 11/5 shape. Depth. Able to locate for strikes. T2553, 2448 average rpm.
SL: 64.2-66.3 mph. 10/4 shape. T2463, 2422 average rpm.
CH: 69.4-70.6 mph. Plays straight. T1806, 1750 average rpm.
For a freshman, RHP Cole Kenyon (Lake Zurich, 2025) demonstrated an especially impressive and mature four-pitch mix. The projectable 5-foot-11, 143-pound right-hander works from the stretch exclusively, utilizing a drop/drive lower-half down the mound before transitioning into a loose and whippy high ¾ arm action. His fastball sat 75-76 mph with some life through the zone while setting up two different breaking balls. The first being a curveball with 11/5 shape at 64-66 mph that he was able to control around the zone, showing depth while spinning at 2,500 rpm, a high mark for a player his age which typically signals a positive sign for the future. His slider profiled somewhat similarly, though it featured shorter action that he also landed for strikes. Kenyon's changeup featured sink/fade at 69-71 mph that he located down in the zone effectively.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-1, 145-pounds. Athletic, wiry frame with room for added strength.
Delivery: Controlled delivery, simple, medium balance point, drop and drive lower-half.
Arm Action: RH. Long and loose arm swing into a high 3/4 slot.
FB: T81, 80-81 mph. Life through the zone with finish. T2205, 2159 average rpm.
CB: 69-70 mph. Sharp 11/5 action with late bite, above-average spin. T2686, 2628 average rpm.
SL: 70-72 mph. Sharp 10/4 action, late break with above-average spin. T2628, 2600 average rpm.
CH: 75-77 mph. Thrown with intent, late fade to the arm-side. T1841, 1765 average rpm.
