MOKAN Top Prospect Games: Underclass Pitching Leaderboard
June 14, 2023
On Tuesday, June 6th, the PBR Missouri and Kansas staffs traveled to Creekside in Parkville, MO, to host the annual MOKAN Top Prospect Games: Underclass event. This invite-only showcase featured some of the top 2026 and 2027 underclassmen from the two states, and those in attendance participated in a pro-style workout, followed by a simulated game.
Over the years, this event has provided our staff with an up-close look at some of the state’s premier underclass talent. These ‘Top Prospect’ events, like all of our PBR showcases, serve as identifiers for future invite-only events, like the PBR Future Games.

Then, with the help of our tech partners, we compiled a hitting leaderboard, shining some light on multiple top offensive performers through an analytical lens. Those names can be found HERE.
