View Draft Report
Keele is a productive senior sign with legitimate stuff. The righthander throws an above-average 90-94 mph fastball with good finish, while he mixes in a fringe-average slider that has gotten much more consistent this year--it flashes average regularly now. He also throws a splitter, although the lack of quality of the pitch and pro teams' reluctance to let pitchers throw a split may move him to a two-pitch reliever in pro ball.
