How I Got Here with Corey Koskie

Miscellaneous


Kyle Gibson started his path to the big leagues from the Hoosier state. He loved basketball but he loved baseball more.  He has been around baseball his whole life, as his dad was a coach at the high school.  Elbow surgery at 15 didn't deter him and he continued to impress scouts throughout his youth career.  He was drafted out of high school by the Philadelphia Phillies. He decided not to sign and go to the University of Missouri.  He was drafted in the 1st round by the Minnesota Twins.  After only 2 years in the minor leagues, Kyle made his MLB debut June 29, 2013, against the Kansas City Royals.  Gibson has had success in the big leagues and he has had his struggles.  Kyle talks about his youth sports experience and how he has dealt with his struggles.  This is how he got here.
