Kanaan Taylor: 1B/RHP, (2026) University Liggett, MI. 5-foot-9, 165-pound. (66.1 mph bat speed average). (21.9 mph hand speed average). Begins in a tall active stance with a quick controlled load, then uses a small leg kick. Found some barrels with some loud contacts. Raw in the infield, displayed a velocity of 73 mph; had average footwork, developing consistent hands, and a packing lengthy exchange. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were average. Solid on the mound, showed good arm speed, he had a moderate arm action with an over-the-top high ¾ arm angle. Tall-and-fall type pitcher who shows some effort. Has even in line shoulder and tall balance point. Lands closed with recoil upright finish. (Max spin 2196; Avg 2013).
