C/INF Derek Kubek (Oswego East, 2025) was a winner during the workout portion of the event, showcasing well in the box and behind the dish. At the plate, Kubek worked from a quiet, easy setup into an easy, loose swing from the left side that worked through an uphill path to a balanced finish. Defensively, he displayed position versatility during gameplay when he started the final game behind the plate before later moving to shortstop. Behind the plate, Kubek was quick out of the crouch (2.01-2.09 pop time) and had a quick, accurate arm with a max velocity of 76 mph.
