RHP Gavin Lykins (Plainfield) is a sophomore arm that we have been monitoring that is beginning to blossom into a power arm. Uber-projectable at 6-foot-4, 195 pounds - Lykins attacks with a shorter stride and a long, full arm swing that accelerates to an over-the-top slot. There is some carry properties to the fastball, and it works at 85-87, touching 89 mph on his best bullet. Lykins showed a firmer, 73-75 mph slider that has improved since looks in the fall. An athletic arm built with lean strength, Lykins continues to make positive trends.

I am very high on ‘26 RHP Gavin Lykins (Plainfield HS). There is all-kinds of upside within the 6-foot-3, 185 pound frame and the projectable right-hander has an uninterrupted arm swing that works from a high, over-the-top arm slot. His fastball worked in the low-80s (T 85 mph) with carry (17 - 20.5” of IVB) and it is easy to project significant velocity gains to come in the future. Lykins spun his curveball at 68-73 mph, an 11/5 shaped offering that tunnels well with his carry fastball.
