With the year coming to an end, our staff is taking some time to highlight and reflect on the most viewed profiles in Missouri throughout 2023. We’ll be counting down to the top spot, starting with No. 10 earlier in the week working our way down, releasing the most viewed name prior to the end of the year.  

Our profiles serve as an all-in-one platform for players, hosting vendors such as verified stats, event video, contact information, and more. To create a free PBR profile, click HERE.

We've already released three stories, which you can find here:

+ No. 10 Tytus Cissell
+ No. 9 Drew Dickerson
+ No. 8 Trey Snyder
+ No. 7 Kade Durnin

We’ll keep making our way to No. 1 on our list today with the sixth most viewed profile in the state this year, OF Leo Humbert (Francis Howell, 2025; Missouri commit). 

Humbert’s status as an elite prospect in Missouri’s junior class only climbed throughout this calendar year - he sits at fifth overall on our class rankings currently, and within the top-100 on a national scale, too. 

He’s one of the more gifted offensive talents in the state with an equal blend of raw power and feel to hit. Humbert owns big bat speed, keeps his barrel flat through the zone, and holds prodigious raw power, posting triple-digit exit velocities at a few events this year with a 104.6 mph max in the winter. Aside from his tools, Humbert’s a proven offensive performer, slashing .371/.480/.645 with 21 extra-base hits over 154 plate appearances for Francis Howell this spring, as well as an excellent showing at the PBR Future Games, too.

Plenty physical at 6-foot-1, 200-pounds, Humbert doesn’t lack any upside across all aspects of his game with real five tool potential. He’s a 6.68 runner with speed that translates to the field, particularly on defense, where Humbert floats around center field effortlessly as an advanced defender for the position. With that, Humbert’s arm strength shows both in a workout and gameplay setting, giving him even more value defensively.

A few months after the Future Games, Humbert announced his commitment to in-state Mizzou, making him the highest ranked national prospect from the ‘Show Me’ state in any of the Tigers current recruiting classes. Given his tools, Humbert’s ceiling is unquestionably one of the highest in the class and he enters his junior year with plenty of positive momentum behind him.
