Liam McKinney: OF/LHP, (2027) Catholic Memorial, MA. 5-foot-11, 160-pound.
Liam McKinney: OF/LHP, (2027) out of Catholic Memorial, MA. is a 5-foot-9, 145-pound two-way prospect. In the box, the left-handed hitter had an exit velocity of 79 mph with a (62.9 mph bat speed average) and (20.5 mph hand speed average). McKinney starts in a balanced, athletic stance with the hands set just off the back shoulder. He then used a short stride to trigger a simple, flat swing that stays on plane through contact. From the outfield, he made throws to the infield up to 68 mph, while showing smooth, consistent feet, a clean exchange, and sure hands. He also recorded a time of 8.03 in the 60-yard dash. On the mound, McKinney uses a long, high ¾ arm slot to produce a fastball that sits 67-69 mph (Max spin 1835; Avg 1713) with some arm side run. The delivery is simple and direct. He uses simple movements to get to a good, consistent balance point. He lands square with a clean finish. mcKinney also featured a sweeping curveball (56-58 mph)(Max spin 1778; Avg 1383).
