Brandon Shannon brings power stuff and real upside to Louisville’s right-handed pitching mix
Shannon is a 6-foot-4, right-handed power arm whose fastball has climbed into the low 90s and has been reported up to 95-97 mph, pairing well with a sharp breaking ball and splitter that helped him dominate in high school and earn top-100 freshman recognition at Louisville. He is a strikeout-heavy competitor with a proven track record of big-game performance, but his early college line in 2026 shows some command volatility, so he looks like a high-upside fit if your staff can sharpen the control and consistency.
