Jaden Keenan, Catalina Foothills (AZ), 2023
Positional Profile: LHP/1B Twitchy athlete. Will follow progression both on mound and as a hitter.
Body: 6-1, 165-pounds. Athletic build, wiry strength.
Hit: LHH. Base is just outside of shoulder width, in a slightly open stance with a bend in the knees. Hands are held at chest height with a vertical bat angle.  Load is slow and controlled. Uses a direct stride that gets him back to a squared position. Bat gets into the zone quick and stays on plane. Handles balls out over the plate best, tends to spin on the inside pitch.
Power: 92.1 max exit velocity, averaged 85.2 mph. 318’ max distance. Gets to the top half well, not much lazy air. Line drives to the middle are driven well with back spin flight. Balls to the pull side were on the ground with top spin.
Arm: LH. INF - 80 mph. Short arm action from a high 3/4 slot. Quick arm with good arm strength across the diamond.
Defense: Athletic at 1B, moves his feet well and is quick for the position. Glove work was consistent, fielded balls cleanly, lost some on the transfer.
Run: 7.49 runner in the 60.
