RHP DANNY KERR

THE SKINNY: Kerr is a 6-foot-10 190-pound right-handed pitcher out of Bishop Eustace Prep in Haddonfield, New Jersey. On Perfect Game, Kerr is a Top 1000 prospect in the country. He’s also the 113th ranked prospect and 35th ranked right-handed pitcher in New Jersey.

Kerr made his commitment to the Scarlet Knights almost a year ago as he committed to Rutgers over Coastal Carolina, Penn State and others. “I chose Rutgers because I’m only an hour away from home and I’m playing Big Ten baseball, you can’t beat that,” Kerr previously told The Knight Report.

During his senior season, Kerr had put up great numbers as he pitched 27.3 innings with 46 strikeouts, ten walks and a 1.28 ERA. According to Perfect Game, Kerr has a four-pitch mix highlighted by an upper-80s fastball. He also throws a slider, curveball and changeup.
