Verbally committed to Louisville.

6/05/24
Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 33 in the state, standing in at a loose-limbed 6-foot-3, 160-pounds. Shannon got the start for the Warriors in the Sectional Semifinals and continued to show why his stock has been rising over the course of the year. His fastball played in the upper 80’s consistently throughout the game; sitting 88-90 mph (T91) with life through the zone. His slider played tighter in this look at 77-79 mph, while flashing an 11/5-shaped curve to go with it, rounding out his arsenal with a splitter at 81 mph with downer bite to it. Shannon turned in a final line of: W, 6 IP, 2 ER, 5 H, 3 BB, 6 K.

Uncommitted, currently ranked No. 35 in the state. Got the start for the Warriors and showed upside throughout his outing. Listed at a projectable 6-foot-3, 160-pounds, Shannon is an athletic mover down the mound. He works with a quick, compact arm action, releasing the ball from a high ¾ slot. He pounded the zone throughout his outing (65% strikes), and had confidence in all three of his offerings. His fastball sat 84-87, touching 88 in the first inning with some sink to it. He went to a 75-79 mph breaking ball with 11/5 shape for consistent swings and misses, while also going to an 80-82 mph splitter with sharp downer action to round out his arsenal. Shannon finished the day with seven strikeouts over his six innings of work and will be a junior arm to continue to keep tabs on this spring.

RHP Brandon Shannon (McHenry, 2025) gave our staff an eye-opening first look on Saturday. He has a highly projectable frame, coming in at 6-foot-3, 160-pounds with long limbs and a high-waist. He has an easy and athletic delivery, and there’s plenty of upside in his operation alone. The right-hander cruised with his fastball around 89-90 mph, pounding the zone with running action and finish, playing with easy life from his high ¾ release. His curveball and slider both have out-pitch potential, with his curveball playing around 75-79 mph (T2664 RPM) and his slider sitting around 77-80 mph (T2411 RPM), delivering both offerings with arm-speed and late bite. To round off his arsenal he went to a splitter in the 83-85 mph range, falling off the table with running action to his arm-side. High-upside arm with his best days still yet to come.
