Fresh off an outing for Team Illinois at the PBR Future Games, RHP Keegan Luxem (Hersey, 2025) continued to display a high upside on the bump. Luxem stands at an imposing 6-foot-5, 215-pound frame with more strength to come. The right-hander features an effortless delivery that is well-balanced and sequenced. In gameplay, he came out firing with a heavy dose of power fastballs that worked in the mid-80s, T87.2 with significant spin (2371 RPM). Luxem used his heater to get swings and misses up in the zone, partly due to his event best 24.5” of max IVB. He often went to a slider that played in the upper-70s at times with short break and depth to miss barrels. Also flashed feel for a low-80s changeup and a high spin curveball (2444 RPM).

RHP Keegan Luxem (Hersey, 2025) certainly stands out on the field, bringing a hulking 6-foot-5, 215-pound frame to the mound. Luxem’s fastball touched 87 mph, pitching in the low-to-mid-80s with a low-70s curveball to pair that spun at upwards of 2500 RPM.

6-foot-5, 215-pound frame with a strong lower half. Ball comes out of the hand clean upon delivery with a longer stride towards the plate. Fastball sat 82-85 mph, T86 mph with natural cut. Curveball was 68-73 mph with quality vertical depth. Slider was sharp and late-breaking at 74-77 mph.
RHP Keegan Luxem (Hersey, 2025) made a loud statement in his ‘pen on Sunday. Standing at an already physical 6-foot-4, 200-pounds, Luxem catches the eye before he even steps on the mound. His delivery is simple and he showed the ability to control his limbs and repeat before moving into a high ¾ slot. His fastball plays with some angle through the zone and a max IVB of 19.8, sitting 82-84 mph throughout his ‘pen with spin reaching over 2,300 RPM. His curveball has potential, playing with sharp 11/5 action at times while occasionally missing up in the zone, 66-67 mph. His final offering was a changeup at 75-76 mph, playing with tilt when kept down and arm-side fade through the zone. With Luxem’s ability to control his body at his young age, the command over his arsenal should only continue to tick up as he develops in the coming years.
