LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2025 PG Puerto Rico National Showcase Qualifier
Kebdiel Melendez is a 2026 RHP/SS with a 5-11 175 lb. frame from Barceloneta, PR who attends Central Pointe Christian. Medium athletic build. Works exclusively from the stretch with a full arm takeaway in back and a long stride down the mound, high 3/4's arm slot with good arm speed. Fastball topped out at 86 mph with some ride and carry up in the zone, lived in the strike zone after settling in. Threw a short cutter-like slider that showed good power and sharpness and also mixed in a 12/6 downer curveball that created some weak swings. Starter profile with three solid pitches and some ability to mix. Good athlete who fields his position well. Named to the PG Puerto Rice National Qualifier Showcase Top Prospect List.
