RHP Kahler Key (La Crosse Aquinas, 2022) will look to be another key arm for the Golden Eagles this coming spring, returning 21.2 innings from last season. Towering 6-foot-7, 240-pound frame. Key has an up-tempo delivery that works in-line, front hip tends to open and swing into footplant. Medium arm circle out of the glove that works into an over-the-top slot. His fastball played with noticeable carry and life, averaging 24.1 for his IVB while sitting 86-88 mph, T89. He went to a downer curveball at 71-76 mph (+2600 RPM), backing up on him at times but playing with sharp action when kept down. His final offering was a changeup at 78-81 mph, averaging around 16” of run.
9/21/22

True Freshman. 6-foot-6, 200-pound frame, room to add on additional strength. His height paired with his over the top slot makes for a deceiving look for would-be hitters; especially with his fastball where he sat in the 84-85 mph range with an average IVB of 19.3 (T20.4). His curveball plays with tight 11/5 shape, averaging over 2,400 RPM and sitting 73-76 mph. His slider plays with short 10/4 action, thrown with fastball intent at 77-79 mph. He also featured a straight change at 78-80 mph.
