2023 Player Spotlight: RHP Kade Langhorst

Langhorst has thin, wiry levers and projection in his 6-foot-1, 160-pound frame. He was arguably the liveliest arm at Grand Park last weekend, showing premium arm speed from an over-the-top slot with little effort. He faced a tough and older line in 5 Star National Midwest, holding 83-87 throughout his start and touching 88 in the fourth inning. The curveball was one of the best of the event, with tight 11/5 action that was sharp and late, spinning at or a tick above 2600 rpm. It was 69-71. He also mixed in a 76-77 changeup that looks like an excellent third pitch with late fade.
