McKenna pitched well in Jupiter over the fall and threw well in front of scouts in January after not being high on the radar for many evaluators. A St. John’s commit, McKenna has a huge, projectable frame at 6-foot-6, 215 pounds, but he will have to work on cleaning up his operation from the left side. Throwing from a high overhand slot, he produces forced riding action on his 12-to-6 curveball that has a chance to be above average in the future. His fastball has sat in the high 80s, but he has gotten up to 91 on it at times—it’s likely a fringe-average pitch for now. His strike-throwing ability suffers due to his robotic delivery, but with his great makeup he should be able to fix any issues with continued development at the collegiate level.
