Keenan Donaldson

2025 Senior Future Games: C Keenan Donaldson (New Trier, 2026) emerged as a high follow at the West Suburban ID earlier this spring, and he continues to establish himself as one of the top backstops in the state down here at the Senior Future Games. Listed at a muscle-bound 5-foot-11, 180-pounds, there’s loud tools across the board, starting with strength in his right-handed bat. He was all over the barrel in his round with a peak EV of 99.2 mph, averaging 94 mph throughout - also averaging 22.3 mph for his hand-speed and 77.2 mph for his bat-speed. He took a clean round of defense behind the plate, showing off plenty of arm-strength (T80 mph) and a quick/clean transfer (1.82 pop-time). On top of all that, he’s also a 6.93 runner in the 60.
