Joseph Keller, Damien (CA), 2027 Positional Profile: RHP/OF A 3-pitch arsenal featuring a FB, CB, and CH. Long levers help create whippy movements and deception through the delivery. Body: 6-2, 170-pounds. Tall and lengthy frame, will grow into body as he matures. Delivery: Easy mechanics until a more violent action as the front foot strikes. Drops into his backside as he rides the slope and swings his lead leg out infront. Times the frontside with front foot strike, allowing the arm to get up on time. Rotational delivery, as he finishes over his front foot. Arm Action: RH. A longer arm path as he collects himself with a glove tap. Arm is whippy and comes from a 3/4 slot. FB: FB showed more ride than run with a max of 81mph. The pitch profile had an avg movement profile of 11.3in of IVB and 7.1in of HM. Heavy fastball. CB: A bigger CB with a 12-6 movement profile. Quality pitch that can either steal strikes early in the count or freeze a batter with 2ks. CH: A low spin CH showed more fade than depth with an avg of 9.0in of IVB and 14in of HM. Tunnels well off the FB and can be a quality pitch against LHH.

Joseph Keller, Damien (CA), 2027 Positional Profile: RHP/OF Long levered frame, with ability to add more weight and muscle. Curveball spins well and will be interesting to see progression as body matures. Body: 6-2, 170-pounds. Tall and lengthy frame, with weight and muscle to add on. Delivery: Worked exclusively out of the stretch, small leg lift with front leg coming around to create lag. Front side stays firm through delivery. Arm Action: RH. OTT arm slot with high release point, takeback is long and comes behind body. FB: T77, 75-77 mph. Works well to top of the zone, with some ride. T1877, 1774 average rpm. CB: 62-63 mph. Shows shape and works truly at 12/6. Spins tight when released out front and with present arm slot is deceptive. T1859, 1837 average rpm. CH: 69-71 mph. Arm side run, and velocity change shows seperation from fastball. T1789, 1725 average rpm.
