Unsigned Senior Spotlight: OF Kyle Labedz
January 10, 2019
On Jan. 13, at The MAX sports facility in McCook, Ill., PBR will be hosting the winter's Unsigned Senior Showcase. You can find registration information within the previous hyperlink, but we’ll use this post today, as well as the posts following this one leading up to this week’s event, to shine the light on a few of the attending prospects who merit specific mentioning.
Kyle Labedz, an outfielder from Lincoln-Way Central, attended GPA Games last August, marking the first time we had the chance to see the left/left prospect at a PBR event. He came away from the showcase as one of the top-ranked outfielders in attendance for his line-drive contact at the plate coupled with his natural outfield actions.
We're looking forward to seeing the progress he has made over the fall and winter.
