In his Prep Baseball debut, RHP Luke Busse (Olathe Northwest, 2028) oozed projection from a long 6-foot-6, 178-pound frame. With plenty more in the tank, Busse worked in the low-80s with his fastball, topping at 82.8 mph with 2,300+ RPM spin. He showed feel to land a 67-70 mph slider for strikes with 2,400+ RPM spin and upwards of -18.3 inches of horizontal movement, while also turning over a 70-72 mph changeup. Busse will be a name to keep an eye on moving forward.
