2014 Northeast Indoor Showcase  
Kevin Shields is a 2015 LHP/ with a 6-1 155 lb. frame from Royersford, PA who attends Pope John Paul II. Large frame with long limbs, high waist, and a lean, projectable build. Ran a 5.47 40 yard dash. Left handed pitcher, works with a steady tempo and throws from a three-quarter arm slot. Repeats delivery well, shows a short, easy arm action, front shoulder opens early at times. Fastball topped at 76 mph with slight arm side run, works both corners well when closed, works low with fastball. Good feel for off speed, curveball has short, late 1/7 break and shows ability to back door to right handed hitters. Changeup shows nice late fade at 69 mph. Left handed batter, starts from an upright stance, shows bat speed and makes contact to the middle of the field. Very good student.
