I don't post about players we're not connected to very much. I just saw a kid on twitter from Cisco JC throwing 98-99 and touching triple digits. Kyrin Leblanc is a RHP from St Martinville that plays at Cisco currently. I saw some indication he may be committed to Texas State, but I didn't see any reference to it on his Twitter.

He's still figuring out how to harness it, 19 Ks 9 BBs in 11 innings. But that's a big arm.

Kyrin Leblanc - NJCAA


Looks like we’re on him now.

The St Louis Post Dispatch did a profile on Brady Kehlenbrink ahead of the local high school season starting this week.

STLtoday.com

quote:

Kehlenbrink posted a 5-1 record as a junior with a 3.11 ERA in 27 innings pitched. He led the Patriots with 59 strikeouts, and his strikeout average of 15.3 was third best in the area behind Winfield's Colin Morse (17.71) and Timberland's Adam Hachman (16.06).


quote:

After Kehlenbrink committed to LSU, former pitching coach Wes Johnson — now the head coach at the University of Georgia — asked Kehlenbrink if he knew what made him so good on the mound.

"I thought it was because I throw hard, but he's like no," Kehlenbrink said. "That's when he brought up the IVB (induced vertical break) and it being so hard."

While at multiple camps in front of scouts, Kehlenbrink discovered the IVB on his four-seamer had over 20 inches of vertical break.

According to Baseball America, a pitcher who can reach 20 inches or more of IVB is considered to have elite movement.
