Keeler Morfe

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked Baltimore Orioles #14 prospect in 2025
  BA Grade/Risk: 50/Extreme.
  
  Track Record: The Orioles like to spread their international signing money around on the pitching side and gave Morfe just over $200,000 as part of that plan in their 2023 international class. He was too good for the Dominican Summer League in his second stint there—striking out 38 with a 0.86 WHIP in 22 innings—before jumping to Low-A Delmarva for four starts to finish the 2024 season.
  
  Scouting Report: Morfe’s size and slight frame make him seem unremarkable—but the arm speed he generates is jaw-dropping. His four-seamer was up to 99.8 mph and averaged 97.5, and Morfe confidently attacks hitters in the zone with it. His plus mid-80s sweeper and plus changeup—a pitch in the 90-92 mph range with significant run—round out an arsenal that’s advanced for such a young pitcher. It takes a consistent, repeatable delivery from an athletic, twitchy body to generate the power Morfe does, given how small he is. But the Orioles believe he can sustain a heavy workload and are working on adding a second, harder, breaking ball shape that he can land for strikes and to build out his arsenal as a starter. He’ll need to improve his below-average control.
  
  The Future: Morfe has the arsenal to be a quality major league starter with big stuff but will have to prove his body can handle the workload and that he can throw enough strikes. He’s set to start 2025 back at Delmarva.
