151. Brendon Little
, lhp, Malvern Prep
L-L, 6-2/200, Malvern, Pa.
College Commitment: North Carolina

Little has a strong and mature build and throws from a high three-quarters to over-the-top arm action that produces big downhill angle on his pitches when he's working low in the strike zone. His arm action is loose and tension free and he still has some projection left despite his build. Little usually works in the 88-92 mph range but has touched as high as 95 mph this spring, big numbers for a southpaw, and the potential is there for him to settle in with a consistent low-90s fastball. Little's best secondary pitch at present is his mid-70s changeup that has lots of life which Little throws with confidence. He also throws a mid- to upper-70s curveball that will flash good depth at times.


152. Travis Lakins
, rhp, Ohio State (SO)
R-R, 6-1/175, Franklin, Ohio
Previously Drafted: Never Drafted

A true draft-eligible sophomore, Lakins has experienced an increased workload this spring as he nearly doubled his innings pitched from his freshman season to 2015. Showing durability from his 6-foot-1, 175-pound frame, Lakins is the only pitcher on the Buckeyes pitching staff to make 15 starts this spring, accruing 96 innings on the mound. With a high leg lift at the start of his delivery and a fast arm coming through, Lakins shows the ability to work both sides of the plate, mix well, and miss bats with his entire repertoire. Armed with a fastball that consistently works in the low-90s, Lakins can amp it up into the mid-90s throughout a start while spotting low to either side. The righthander is full of athleticism – as evidenced by three all-conference selections in basketball during his prep days – that allows him to both repeat his delivery and field his position at a high level. Of his four-pitch mix it’s his curveball that he shows the most comfort for working in the 70-74 mph range with big depth and 12-to-6 shape. Rounding out the arsenal, Lakins has both a slider and changeup though his fastball and curveball are his two primary pitches.


153. Devin Davis
, 1b, Valencia HS
R-R, 6-2/215, Santa Clarita, Calif.
College Commitment: Loyola Marymount

Davis has had a strong spring, hitting .407-6-26 with 18 walks versus only 12 strikeouts in 28 games. He's also been a consistently strong performer on the summer and fall travel circuit, where his powerful righthanded swing has produced some big home runs in heavily scouted games against top level pitching. The PG All-American also stands out for his smooth glove work at first base and his overall athleticism. Scouts often like their first base drafts out of high school to be lefthanded hitters, and more projectable, but Davis' present tools play loudly now.


154. Braden Bishop
, of, Washington (JR)
R-R, 6-1/190, Mountain View, Calif.
Previously Drafted: Braves ’12 (36)

In terms of pure athletic ability, Bishop is right up there with anybody in the 2015 draft class. Standing at 6-foot-1, 190-pounds, Bishop shows present strength on his frame and does so while maintaining the fast-twitch muscle that helps impact his overall game. A top-of-the-order bat who projects to stay in center field long-term, Bishop is an easy plus runner whose speed shows up in a game more often than not. The second member of the University of Washington to appear within the top 200, joining catcher Austin Rei, Bishop hit .295 on the spring while starting all 49 games in which he appeared. A righthanded hitter, Bishop has been a steady performer at the top of the Huskies’ lineup showing a direct path to the ball with the feel and ability spray hard line drives to all parts of the field. Going gap-to-gap allows Bishop to put his big speed on display and stretch out an extra-base, though he has also shown some power this spring hitting four home runs after never hitting one his previous two seasons. Once on base that speed becomes a factor yet again, leading the Pac-12 in stolen bases last spring before finishing fifth in the league with 15 this year. His high-end athleticism plays extremely well in center field also, showing big-time closing speed to either gap with long gliding steps after getting a solid first step.


155. Ryan Johnson
, of/rhp, College Station HS
R-R, 6-3/200, College Station, Texas
College Commitment: Texas Christian

One of the higher-end two-way talents in this draft class, College Station High School’s Ryan Johnson has been intriguing scouts for quite awhile now with his ability as a position player as well as his talent on the mound. At 6-foot-3, 200-pounds, Johnson possesses a really athletic, strong build that projects well in both phases of the game. As a hitter, Johnson shows a very smooth lefthanded stroke with outstanding hands and bat speed to go along with solid present power that could project to be plus in time. He’s a very good defensive outfielder, covering lots of ground with true middle-of-the-field athleticism. He ran a 6.86 60-yard dash at last summer’s National Showcase, while throwing 92 mph from the outfield. He projects well in either center or right field at the next level. And if all of that wasn't enough, he’s also a very good pitching prospect, showing low-90s heat consistently while being clocked as high as 94 mph to go along with a developing curveball and changeup to round out his arsenal. Johnson has recently let it be known that he fully intends to honor his commitment to TCU.

Then vs. Now: '26 Class Look Back

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
One constant across our scouting staff is the volume of in-person looks we get at prospects during their high school years. With assignments at national tournaments and showcases throughout the calendar, we’ve built a deep library of reports and video on many of today’s top college prospects dating back to their prep days. This week, we took a step back to revisit what those players looked like as high school prospects. Which tools stood out? What was missing from the profile at the time? And what, if anything, did we overlook that ultimately helped shape the player they’ve become? Below, we break down 10 players in a “Then and Now” reflection. Justin Lebron (23 FL) finishes off the tournament getting in on the hit parade with a single to the pullside. #PGShowdown #Bama commit pic.twitter.com/C4Irym2ZTR — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) March 4, 2023...

College Players of the Week: Feb. 24

Vincent Cervino

February 24 Perfect Game/Player of the Week: Will Gasparino, OF, UCLA After playing 117 games, launching 27 doubles and 25 home runs in Austin, TX for the University of Texas, Will Gasparino decided it was time to head back to his hometown of Los Angeles, CA. Based on his performance in the first two weeks of the season for the Bruins, he looks very comfortable and ready to push his name up the Draft Board. UCLA (6-1) enters 2026 with incredibly high expectations, jumped to No. 3 in our Top 25 poll with their 3-game sweep of previously ranked TCU and Gasparino provided much of the offensive firepower. For the week, the 6-6/220 outfielder went 7 for 13 good for a .538 BA, with a double, 5 home runs and 13 RBI. That brings his slash line through 7-games to .391/1.304/.548 with a double, a triple, 6 home runs and he has driven in a total of 15 runs. The scary thing is that Gasparino is just...

PG Salutes Chet Brewer, a Youth Baseball Pillar

PG Salutes Chet Brewer, a Youth Baseball Pillar A few weeks ago, Perfect Game and its Believe in Baseball foundation held a fundraising event in Los Angeles. The “In the Spirit of the Game” dinner and auction brought in thousands of dollars, all of which will go toward providing deserving youngsters an opportunity to play and grow in the game. Chet Brewer was not at the event – the former Negro Leagues star died at age 83 in 1990 – but his spirit was. Big time. “That night was all about Chet,” PG commissioner Dennis Gilbert said. “He was all about giving kids chances to play the game, especially kids from underprivileged backgrounds. “When you’re 15, 16, 17 years old – those years are the basis of your life. Chet helped put a lot of kids on the right path through the game of baseball.” Brewer’s impactful life has...

College Top 25: February 23

Vincent Cervino
Article Image
College Player Report Database In Week 1, the Top 15 teams in the poll remained unchanged but the college baseball landscape had a different narrative in mind for Week 2. With plenty of upsets and teams at the top establishing their dominance, there was quite a bit of upheaval across the country. While there were some special performances on the mound, runs continue to be scored in bunches and high drama extra-inning games seem to be the norm. There is no time to relax or take the foot off the gas in the college game today; we are in for another wild season it appears. The LSU Tigers (8-0) made the trip across the panhandle to Jacksonville, FL, swept through the Live Like Lou Jax Classic by outscoring their opponents 33-11 and remain No. 1 this week. The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (8-0) secure their spot at No. 2 and are off to a program record breaking run scoring spree, averaging...

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 63

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 62, Part 1 | Part 2 Demystifying the Curveball, Pitch Counts, and Weighted Balls - Part 3  We've made it to Part 3…the final installment of our series on baseball's most misunderstood and debated topics.   In Part 1, we tackled the curveball. The takeaway: the pitch itself isn't what’s dangerous. Decades of awful and ineffective coaching cues, ”snap your wrist," "turn the doorknob”…exacerbated and even in many causes caused some of the problems. Teach it correctly, when the athlete is ready, and it's no riskier than a fastball.  In Part 2, we examined pitch counts. The takeaway: they're a useful tool, but a limited one. Treating a single number as a universal measure of safety ignores everything...

Pacific Northwest All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley

NORTHWEST REGION (WA, OR, ID, WY, AK, MT, HI)    The biggest change in the Northwest Region for 2026 is the addition of Hawaii, which has always been overlooked due to being lumped with California in the former Pacific Region.  This also coincides with an increased Perfect Game presence in the islands in the form of additional events and scouting.  And Hawaii certainly contributed in it’s first year, placing four players on the All-Region team, including slugging 2026 outfielder Judah Ota. The powerhouse Puyallup HS team is the only Northwest Region team to be represented in the PG Pre-Season Top 50 National HS Rankings, beginning the year ranked 26th.  C – Teagan Scott (Sr., South Salem HS, Ore.)

PG ID Camps Help Youngsters Build a Baseball Resume There was still snow on the ground in a lot of places last weekend, but that didn’t stop more than 200 young players from going indoors to participate in the first round of Perfect Game Select Fest ID Camps for the 2026 season. John McAdams, PG’s national crosschecker and Northeast scouting director, ran the event in Farmingdale, New Jersey, and was impressed with his group’s energy and desire to improve at the game. “We’re giving young players the opportunity to build their baseball resumes and chart their growth and progress over a span of years,” he said.
