Unsigned Senior Showcase Spotlight: RHP Jacob Sullivan


By Drew Locascio
Illinois Scouting Director

On Jan. 12, 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. 

RHP Jacob Sullivan (Brother Rice) will be another uncommitted arm to watch come Sunday. Sullivan has a clean, loose arm with plenty more in the tank and has feel for pitching. Sullivan got quality innings for the Crusaders last year and is line to be a dependable arm yet again in 2020.
