RHP Blaine Larkin (Lawrence Free State, 2025) is an arm that is long known to our staff and continued to make jumps in both velocity and command in this most recent look. Listed at 6-foot-5, 210-pounds, Larkin has plenty of arm strength on the mound with more to come in a physical frame, emerging as a must-follow prospect this spring. The righty was consistently 87-89 mph on the mound with his fastball, showing natural run at times. He flashed feel for his slider at 74-75 mph and also threw a changeup at 81-84 mph.
