2026 Draft Board: Top 300

Vincent Cervino
Tyler Henninger
Michael Albee
Joey Cohen
The 2026 MLB Draft class is shaping up to be one of the better in recent memory and, potentially, the best class in the last decade. It’s led by UCLA superstar shortstop Roch Cholowsky, a true five-tool prospect who’s the early favorite for 1:1. One of the most popular pieces of industry feedback when constructing this list was some variation of “Roch is too low” or “go up on Roch” and he’s the best college prospect since 2019 when Adley Rutschman (Oregon State, Orioles) was the consensus No. 1 prospect. Similarly to 2019, there’s a superstar Texas prep shortstop at No. 2, in 2019 it was Bobby Witt Jr. (Colleyville Heritage, Royals) and this year it’s Grady Emerson. Both Emerson and Alabama’s Justin Lebron would have been solid 1:1 candidates in years where Roch Cholowsky is not eligible and both have All-Star potential. Following the top three is the consensus top arm in the draft: UC Santa Barbara’s Jackson Flora. He’s been outstanding to start and has shown consistency as well as excellent pitch data to solidify that top pitcher status. Florida prep shortstop Jacob Lombard is a toolsed-up shortstop who is among the best power hitters on the prep side. Georgia Tech teammates Drew Burress and Vahn Lackey follow and Lackey is among the biggest risers in this iteration of the board, with some industry sources having Lackey above Burress on their respective pref lists. Rounding out the top ten are two of the safest college bats in the class in Virginia’s AJ Gracia and Mississippi State’s Ace Reese while Mississippi prep outfielder Eric Booth Jr. is among the biggest risers in the first round, solidifying himself as prep bat 3 in the early going. 

College arms have already begun rising and they will likely continue to do so. Currently there are five college arms in the top 30 but history suggests that number will more than that come draft day and the depth of college arms in general is exciting. A theme that came up when constructing the board is just how much Day 1 (rounds 1-3) there is perceived to be. The amount of college arms among that group is particularly high as and the college bats at the top of this draft are thought of as highly as the 2023 Draft. Left-handed pitching dominates the pitching side of the prep class as Gio Rojas (No. 12, Fla.), Carson Bolemon (14, S.C.), and Logan Schmidt (22, Calif.) highlight the southpaws in the top 30. Reclassification has also been a major theme in this draft as four high school prospects on the board have reclassed from last fall to this spring: Will Brick (23, Tenn.), Jared Grindlinger (42, Calif.), Kaiden McCarthy (91, Vt.), Rocco Maniscalco (101, Ala.); Logan Schmidt also reclassified but did so prior to the summer circuit. Lots of factors surround these decisions but the structure of future drafts given the MLB’s CBA status is certainly one of them. 



As always, this current Draft Board is a mix of a number of factors: evaluations of our own scouts with our own eyes, industry feedback and evaluations, advanced stats and under-the-hood metrics, and where we forecast some of these players ending up years down the line as pros. We are also very early in this process, most conferences are either one or two weeks into conference play while on the high school side Midwest and Northeast schools haven’t even gotten started with their seasons yet. Lots will change as the season progresses but Perfect Game’s coverage will not, we have you covered with live looks via our High School Notebooks and College Player Reports to go along with a ton of High School and College related content throughout the spring. Here are the Top 300 prospects for the 2026 MLB Draft below, enjoy!

High School Notebook: May 7

Cam McElwaney
Article Image
Ryder Bell, LHP, Hamilton (AZ) Bell got the ball for Hamilton in the first round of playoff action and did not blink. The young left-hander tosses 6 2/3 strong innings with four strikeouts and just one walk. Bell faced some adversity at times with runners on, but consistently competed and found a way out of most jams. An athletic operation with intent is shown on the mound. Bell throws from a lower 3/4 slot that can create a tough angle. The fastball worked 82-85 mph with armside run. It paired well with a sweeper at 70-72 mph. Bell attacked the zone with both pitches often and landed the sweeper arm side consistently. The stuff has already shown it can play against quality lineups. Bell should be a fun name to monitor over the next couple years.    Cory Wuttke (‘27, AZ) hammers this out to LF for solo 💣. Multi-hit performance. Stays compact with strength at contact....

Coppy's Corner: May 7 POY Deep Dive

John Coppolella
Article Image
Each week I huddle with Vinnie Cervino and Craig Cozart to discuss Top 25 rankings and Players of the Week. In Coppy’s Corner, I dive deeper into these Players of the Week, providing analysis from 20+ years working in baseball front offices at the highest level.   Player of the Week: Tyce Armstrong – Baylor University  Armstrong is a big man with a big bat that produces big power. Just the second player in the history of Baylor to reach 20 HR in a single season – if you knew the other one was Charley Carter in 1998, you get the gold star – Armstrong brings an impact bat that can turn the game around with one swing. Listed at 6’4 / 228 he is Texas-strong and has been tearing up the Big 12 this season. Armstrong spent his first three season at the University of Texas – Arlington before transferring to Baylor for the 2026 season. He had a...

High School Top 50 Update: May 6

Tyler Russo
Article Image
Another week of high school baseball has come and gone across the country, and we have another update as we continue to roll to the finish of the high school seasons in the southern states in just a few weeks. Regular seasons are wrapping up across the country and playoffs are deep in progress down south, with every update there’s some movement inside the High School Top 50 along with a few new names breaking in. The top-10 remains very similar at the top with Venice (FL) holding onto the No. 1 position for the third straight update. Tomball (TX) jumps up to No. 2 as they continue to rattle of wins with Orange Lutheran (CA), Aledo (TX), and IMG Academy (FL) rounding out the top 5. Trinity (KY) and Harvard-Westlake (CA) sit at No. 6 and No. 7 respectively with a trio of new teams inside the top-10 in Magnolia Heights (MS) at No. 8, Norco (CA) at No. 9, and South Walton (FL) and No....

DII/DIII/NAIA Rankings Update: May 6

Nick Herfordt
Article Image
Records and rankings tell you who has won. Résumé tells you who can win. Every season when the final regular season rankings are released the natural instinct is to point at the team sitting at number one and label them the favorite. That instinct is understandable — those programs have earned their place at the top of the table, and none of them should be dismissed.   Alas, college baseball has a way of humbling the polls when the bracket opens. The teams that survive the NCAA Tournament and the NAIA World Series are rarely the ones with the prettiest record — they are the ones who have been tested repeatedly by elite competition and passed those tests at the highest rate in the country. Winning streaks built against soft schedules tend to dissolve the moment the opponent is worth a damn.   In each of the three small-school divisions, there is a...

College Top 25: May 4

One of the keys to putting together a historical season is not purely talent, but the ability to win games by any means necessary.  The No. 1 UCLA Bruins (43-4) have demonstrated that all year, often riding the strength of their pitching and defense to victory but at other times, slugging their way to a win.  The latter is what kept their perfect (24-0) record in Big Ten play intact, as they overcame an 8-run deficit in the last 3-innings yesterday to defeat Michigan State on the road by a score of 13-11.  The Bruins have already clinched the Big Ten Regular Season title and only have two series remaining in their quest for an undefeated conference record.  UNC (37-9) had an off week and remain at No. 2, while No. 3 Georgia Tech (39-8) won an out-of-conference series against Xavier.  The Texas Longhorns (35-10) stick at No. 4 this week after a huge home series...

Slo-mo look at the swing by Jordan Ransom (‘26, AZ) #PGHS @QCHS_Athletics @PG_Draft https://t.co/fyPaOimF5k pic.twitter.com/T7yH6a1qRI — Perfect Game Four Corners (@PG_FourCorners) April 29, 2026 OF Ryan Harwood, Casteel (Ariz).  Harwood is one of the premier draft names in the state and showed why in the regular season finale. The Texas A&M commit collected a pair of hits and also threw a runner out at home from left field. Harwood possesses impressive physicality that can produce big impact at the plate. The profile has middle of the order upside. Defensively, Harwood profiles best for a corner outfield spot long term. The arm strength may allow him to slide over to right field, as he can produce strong on-line carry. Harwood showed off that arm strength on the mound, where he threw the last inning and ran the heater up to 91 mph. IF Jordan Ransom, Queen Creek...
