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 it with 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 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 swing and miss with it.

Keithley has the natural athleticism as a two way player that college coaches love to see. On the mound, the left-hander has a loose arm swing and pitched at 83-85 with arm side life on his fastball. Really like the feel for the curveball at 73 mph, the pitch has good 1/7 shape and depth to finish. He even choked one for a two-strike swing and miss to a left-handed hitter in the dirt at 79, it was a whammer. In the end, I think Keithley is likely to be an upper-80’s left-hander with a quality curveball.

08.05.17
Keithley is a young player with long-limbed 5-foot-9, 145-pound frame with lots of room to add strength in the coming years. The left-handed hitter has a simple swing with a flat path and loose finish as the barrel stays in the zone a long time. He had several hard groundouts the the other way, including a base hit on a chopper up the middle. With Ketihley's all-around athleticism and projectable frame, he is likely to make significant jumps in the coming year.

On the mound, the left-hander worked with good tempo, clean delivery, quick arm stroke and presence on the mound. The left-hander pounded the zone from a high-3/4 slot, has a good feel for controlling the running game and is an athlete when fielding his position. He challenged hitters throughout his outing with a fastball that sat 80-83 mph, also showing a breaking ball with 1-7 shape at 67-69.

07.25.17 - Keithley is an exciting young player with a quick arm and athletic frame at 5-foot-9, 145-pound frame. On the mound, he works from a high slot with a loose, quick arm stroke. Drop and drive delivery, good hip turn and leg drive down the mound, landing open with an athletic finish. Confident on the mound with an up tempo delivery, Keithley goes right at hitters. His fastball velocity was 81-85 mph, but there is certainly more to come in the future. His curveball was 66-69 mph with good 2/8 shape and more lateral action. Although the pitch has mostly sidespin, he did flash one at 71 mph with sharp break. Throws his changeup with fastball arm speed at 76 mph and arm side fade. A two-way player, Keithley is an athletic defender with a long stride, rhythm through the ball, soft hands and a quick exchange. The ball jumps out of his hand at 85 mph with plus carry and accuracy to the dish. A left-handed hitter, Keithley has a simple swing with a flat path and loose finish as the barrel stays in the zone a long time. Quick hands and a good sense of timing as his quick hips transfer his lower half through contact, creating good extension. With Ketihley's all-around athleticism and projectable frame, he is likely to make significant jumps in the coming years.

Keithley was impressive with his arm speed and athleticism in the outfield, topping out at 84 mph. And once he got on the mound, the athleticism transitioned nicely from his 5-foot-9, 145-pound frame. The left-hander has a loose, quick arm stroke from a high-¾ slot, with his fastball ranging from 79-81 mph, with more velocity to come in the future. His curveball shows good spin for his class at 65-67 mph and 1-7 shape, while his changeup was 71-72 mph. The left-handed hitter starts from a wide, neutral stance with a flat bat over his back shoulder. He uses an athletic leg kick with advanced rhythm and a level hand path to get through the baseball with a loose, easy finish. He took a quality round of batting practice, driving the ball with ease and strength at contact.
