Scouting career

Gibson is regarded as a projector scout which will envisions what a player will be able to do in a two or three years term. Despite the fact that Gibson had a successful pitching career, he has been able to analyze the players’ ability regardless his position. Gibson style of scouting looks also for some particular traits in the players’ personality and character to ensure that they could handle the pressure and be team leaders.

Experiences as a Scout

Beginning in 2006 and for three years, Gibson served as an area scout supervisor for the Atlanta Braves. During his tenure with the Braves he was in charge of all scouting aspects of amateur players in the Northeast.

In 2008, the Seattle Mariners’ Director of Amateur Scouting Mr. Tom McNamara, named Mr. Gibson as the Eastern Cross-checker Scout for the organization. Gibson was part of a bigger plan in which he was expected to work closely with the Mariners baseball operations department and scouting staff in evaluating talent for the amateur draft. Concurrently, Seattle's scouting department underwent a transformation, Carmen Fusco (Director of Pro Scouting) and Mike Cadahia (National Crosschecker) joining the organization.

In 2010, Gibson joined the Kansas City Royals scouting office as the National Scouting Supervisor.

Prospects Signed

Under Gibson’s supervision, the Royals have signed Bubba Starling, Kyle Zimmer, Cameron Gallagher and Alfredo Escalera-Maldonado, at 17, the youngest player ever drafted by any MLB organization since the insertion of the First-Year Player Draft.
