Q and A – RHP Keaton McKinney - Ankeny HS (IA)

Mack – We’re starting off the 2013-2014 series of interviews of potential 2014 draft picks with the pride of Ankeny High School, in Ankeny, Iowa, 6-5 RHP Keaton McKinney. Hey Keaton, how are things going in Iowa tonight?

Keaton - Everything is going good. We have summer baseball here and played 9 games so far this season.

Mack – Let’s go over your repertoire. I’ve got you with a 91-92 fastball that hits 94, an 11/5 curve that tops at 80, and an 80 change-up. Do you have an update on this?

Keaton - Yes sir, that summary of the repertoire is correct. I've thrown eight or nine times this spring. My last outing a couple days ago I sat 92-94 for five innings. I have been working on a slider as well.

Mack – Keaton, someone told me you swing a serious bat including that monstrous homer you hit the other night against Ottumwa. I assume your future in this game is as a pitcher, right?
