Preseason All-State Showcase Spotlight: 2020 RHP/SS Michael Kilker

2018 PBR Future Games - Team Pennsylvania

6/20/18 - Athletic 6-foot-1, 185-pound frame. Primary pitcher sat 83-85 while touching 86-87 at times during his three innings of work. Starts his delivery with a short, side-rocker step and delivers from a mid-3/4 arm slot. Changeup is thrown with above average sell at 75-77 and curveball has good depth at 71-73. Very live arm that is likely to be upper 80s by this time next year. Two-way prospect ran a 7.60 60-yard dash and displayed 82 mph arm strength defensively. Size and defensive actions would be best suited for an eventual move to third base. The right-handed hitter starts from a slightly open stance and he initiates his swing with a leg-hang stride. Displayed an above average feel for the baseball in BP with a bat exit velocity of 84 mph. Went 5-for-7 with a triple in game action over two days.

8/17/17 - 6-foot, 160-pound primary pitcher sat 78-80 from a high 3/4 arm slot.  Initiates balanced delivery with a side rocker step and stays balanced throughout.  Changeup is currently best secondary offering at 73-74 with some arm side run.  Curveball displayed 11/5 rotation with limited break at this stage in its development.  Right-handed hitter battled through a finger injury to take a solid round of batting practice.  Starts from a slightly open stance and initiates his lower half with a leg-hang stride.  An upper half dominated swing produced a bat exit velocity of 75 mph.  Showcased a quick release from a 3/4 arm slot defensively with 73 mph arm strength across the diamond and ran a 7.30 60-yard dash.
