McKenzie is a lean and projectable lefthander with a 6-foot-2, 185-pound frame. He delivers the ball from a three-quarters slot with some depth in the back of his arm stroke. McKenzie has pitched in the low-90s and touched 94-95 mph at peak velocity, but in extended outings his velocity can drop into the upper 80s. His mid-70s breaking ball has great upside thanks to huge spin rates and quality depth if and when he adds more power to the pitch. He’s also mixed in a low-80s changeup that needs more refinement.
