1. Brendan Rodgers
, ss, Lake Mary HS
R/R, 6-1/190, Longwood, Fla.
College Commitment: Florida State

All eyes have been on Rodgers this spring, and while he's been pitched around extensively and pressed occasionally, he's been able to show his full range of athleticism and tools as well. The top of the draft is fluid and complicated this year but one certain thing is that Rodgers will be involved in it. Rodgers hit .360-8-23 in 25 games this spring.

2. Dillon Tate
, rhp, UC Santa Barbara (JR)
R-R, 6-2/200, Claremont, Calif.
Previously Drafted: Never Drafted

Prior to this year many had wondered what Tate would look like if he were to bring his dominant closing arsenal into a starting role. With a plus-fastball that approaches the upper-90s and an array of above-average off-speed pitches that also have plus-potential, Tate has answered many of those questions throughout the spring, providing the helium on his ascent to a potential No. 1 selection.

3. Dansby Swanson
, ss, Vanderbilt (JR)
R-R, 6-1/190, Kennesaw, Ga.
Previously Drafted: Rockies ‘12 (38)

Swanson has made a seamless transition over to shortstop this spring and his ability to play the position at a high level has helped solidify his status as a top pick in 2015. With smoothness and fluidity in everything he does, Swanson’s righthanded swing has been equally as impressive, hitting for both average and power while providing even more value from his premium position.

4. Alex Bregman
, ss, Louisiana State (JR)
R-R, 6-0/190, Albuquerque, N.M.
Previously Drafted: Red Sox ’12 (29)

Alex Bregman is a baseball player first and foremost. He may not be the biggest but he’s the starting shortstop for the nation’s top team and everything he does is at the highest of levels. His high-end athleticism will allow him to stick at that premium position at the next level while his fast hands and advanced approach allow him to put solid swings on premium offerings with Bregman winning most of those battles.

5. Daz Cameron
, of, Eagles Landing Christian Academy
R/R, 6-0/190, McDonough, Ga.
College Commitment: Florida State

Scouts needed to see some offensive spark from Cameron this spring and they got it as Cameron hit .455-8-32 with 21 walks in 25 games and showed a more aggressive swing than they'd seen most of last summer. Cameron had established the rest of his game, especially his athleticism with superb baseball instincts, long before.
