Kane Kepley

Draft Prospects

• Ranked #89 prospect in 2025 draft
  School: Liberty
  Kepley is very reminiscent of former Wake Forest outfielder and current Guardians prospect, Tommy Hawke. Kepley this spring hit .330/.482/.521 with 22 extra-base hits, 25 stolen bases and a ridiculous walk-to-strikeout ratio of 53-to-27. He also enjoyed a productive start to the summer on the cape. Kepley’s bat-to-ball skills and approach are both outstanding. On top of his 93% overall in-zone contact rate, Kepley’s overall chase rate this spring was a diminutive 17%. He has high-level pitch recognition skills and his swing decisions are quite advanced. Kepley has a quick, compact swing and while he is definitely a hit-over-power profile, he does have some sneaky thump to the pullside. Kepley’s advanced baseball sense helps his already-plus run tool play up in that he knows how to run. He has shown comfortability deploying jump and shuffle leads, and he is a mighty effective basestealer. Kepley can man all three outfield positions and he will stick on the grass professionally.
