RHP Daniel Kane (Oak Park-River Forest, 2025) is an upside arm strength sophomore to follow. On Saturday, Kane sat 85-87 mph and reached an 88.2 mph high on a fastball that spins at an above-average rate (2,198 rpm avg.) that also has large arm-side movement. Kane’s secondary feel is presently raw, but his fastball velocity and his 6-foot-4, 195-pound stature combine to make him a ‘25 prospect to monitor this spring and summer.
