The son of Cardinals manager Mike Matheny and brother to Missouri State outfielder Tate and 2016 catcher Jacob, an Indiana recruit, Luke Matheny is committed to Oklahoma State and eyes a future on the mound. He sits at 87-89 mph, but has shown he can get his fastball into the low 90s. It has some running action to it and he spots it well. His changeup is his best secondary pitch right now and curveball is still a work in progress, though he’s not afraid to use it. He has a lean frame with room to add strength, which should help him add velocity down the road.
