2017 Summer Collegiate Top Prospect Index

www.capecodbaseball.org
Year Established: 1885
States Represented: Massachusetts
No. of Teams: 10
Best overall record: EAST - Orleans Firebirds (29-15) WEST - Falmouth Commordores (24-19-1)
Postseason Champion:  Brewster Whitecaps
No. 1 Prospect, 2016: Brady Singer, rhp, Yarmouth-Dennis (Florida)
First 2016 Player Selected, 2017 Draft: Pavin Smith, 1b, Harwich (Virginia; Diamondbacks/1st round)

Most Valuable Player: Greyson Jenista, of, Cotuit (Wichita State)
Outstanding Pitcher: Kris Bubic, lhp, Yarmouth (Stanford)
Top Pro Prospect (as selected by league): Griffin Conine, of, Cotuit (Duke)

The summer of 2017 on the Cape proved to be a fruitful one for scouting staffs as the talent was deep and more than a couple of players stepped up on the big stage to establish themselves of potential high first round selections next June. Orleans had a pair of aces in Stetson’s Logan Gilbert and Mississippi’s Ryan Rolison, both of whom could very easily have been named the No. 1 prospect in the league and appear to be early first round talents at this current junction.

Wichita State has a pair of big bats in Alec Bohm and Greyson Jenista to get excited about in the spring, and after monstrous summers Head Coach Todd Butler should have packed stands throughout the 2018 season. Jenista went on to win the league’s Most Valuable Player award while Duke’s Griffin Conine established himself as one of the best collegiate hitters in the country with a strong summer in Cotuit, hitting alongside Jenista in the heart of the order.

While Orleans and Cotuit both hard formidable lineups, it was the Brewster Whitecaps who was the last team standing, and did so in impressive fashion. Not only did Head Coach Jamie Shevchik’s club take each of their three series to a game three, they also had to go through the gauntlet of Eastern Division clubs as they thwarted Yarmouth-Dennis’ attempt at a four-peat before taking down one of the favorites in the Orleans Cardinals. Their 2-0 victory over the Bourne Braves in game three brought the CCBL Championship to Brewster for just the second time and for the first time since 2000.

With the summer coming after a long spring season, plenty of talented players made brief cameos on the Cape while others did a quick tour in Massachusetts before heading to the USA Collegiate National Team and thus weren’t included in the list below.

Also considered for the list was UC-Irvine's Cameron Bishop, a 26th round selection of the Baltimore Orioles, who ultimately signed with the club after impressing in his 11 innings on the Cape.

Top 30 Prospect Reports

1. Logan Gilbert, rhp, Orleans (Stetson/JR in 2018)
Within a few pitches of watching Stetson’s Logan Gilbert, the tall and ultra-projectable righthander quickly checks several boxes that scouts are looking for regarding a high-end, premier draft selection. And when you take everything Gilbert currently brings to the table and consider there’s a good chance he hasn’t hit his ceiling yet, you’re looking at one of the most interesting arms in all of college baseball. His athleticism is clear immediately as he controls his long 6-foot-6 frame like a pitcher who’s 6-foot-1, repeating his mechanics extremely well pitch-to-pitch with a deliberate tempo and an overall ease to his release. With his long levers Gilbert manages to work on top of the baseball very well, generating hard downhill plane on his fastball while sitting in the 93-96 mph range while showing the ability to locate to either side of the plate. It won’t come as much of a shock if reports begin to circulate this upcoming spring that Gilbert is running his fastball into the upper-90s as the physical projection, ease of arm action and continued refinements to his delivery all suggest another jump. Over 37 1/3 innings on the Cape Gilbert did nothing but fill the zone, miss bats and post zero after zero as he finished with a mere 1.93 ERA and better than a strikeout-per-inning while walking just six batters. His curveball will grade out above average at times, showing depth and bite through the zone into the low-80s while his slider offers more tilt in a similar velocity band.

PG All-Americans: Where are they now?

PG All-Americans - Where are they now? Every year, Perfect Game hosts its All-American Classic, one of the most prestigious honors for high school players across the country. It’s a storied event with 23 years of rich history — between the countless big leaguers who have gone on to produce incredible big-league careers, to future World Series champions, and players from more recent years who still have a whole road ahead of themselves. This week, our PG Draft Team has decided to take a look back at the history of this event over the years. Our scouts on the draft team went through and selected a PG All-American Classic from the past to discuss across three different eras. Over its 23-year history, we have divided it into three eras: the 2000s, the 2010s, and the 2020s. Our Scouts take a look at some of the noteworthy performers from the years they chose, and give a little...

Down on the Farm: NL Central

It’s the time of the year again (i.e. the off-season) for the annual PG Down on the Farm feature.  We identify a top prospect in each of the 30 Major League organizations with as much Perfect Game background as possible and delve into that PG history for some insight into his development as a prospect.  Some of them might be high profile, high draft pick, ex-PG All-American talents who fans have been long familiar with.  Others might be more obscure prospects who have significantly improved either in college or as professionals.  Note that players who have used up their rookie eligibility are not considered. The idea isn’t to necessarily pick the best PG background prospect in each organization but the one who might be closest to the big leagues.  Sometimes that is the same player, other times not. And there is plenty of variation among organizations...

UNC Greensboro Spartans 2025 Highlights: A year after head coach Cody Ellis led the Spartans to the SoCon Regular Season title in 2024, the exodus of impact talent caught up with his club. They started off the season in a promising way with a series win over Creighton, a mid-week win over Wake Forest and a victory on the road at Virginia Tech. However, they would end up losing 8 out of their next 10 games and from there the rollercoaster of a season began. When it was all said and done, the Spartans won 21 games, finished 6th in the regular season with 9 wins in conference play and would lose to Wofford in the first game of the SoCon Tournament. Impact Returners: · Junior Jacob Dilley (.255/.431/.356, 7 doubles, 6 HR, 20 RBI) has the full complement of tools behind the dish with improved power and plate discipline · Sophomore Parker Wight (.260/.479/.399, 11 doubles, 9 HR,...

Dan Pardini, LHP, Class of 2026 Commitment: Penn State Penn State continued their Tri-State area recruiting trend, landing southpaw Dan Pardini out of Christian Brothers Academy. Pardini works from a medium left-handed frame with present strength in the lower half. He starts above the belt before transitioning into a sidestep windup that features a high and quick leg load. Pardini fires down the mound via a standard reach back arm action and a true three-quarters slot, with ease and repeatability to the operation. The Nittany Lions’ recruit operates in the mid-to-high 80s with the heater, flashing cutting action, while mixing in a sweeping slider. Pardini displays feel to land on both offerings, carving through lineups thanks to his two-pitch mix.

MLB Draft Superlatives

Article Image
Most likely college player to make a massive jump up the board? Garrett Wright, C/OF, Tennessee Wright joins the Volunteers after two really quality seasons with the BGSU Falcons in the MAC. Wright has slashed .390/.505/.619 with 28 doubles, three triples, and 14 homers over his 430 plate appearances during his freshman/sophomore year campaign. He’s currently ranked 144th on the Top 150 MLB Draft Prospects, but I’m betting on a big year from the backstop as he settles in for the Vols. Wright’s got the upside at the plate and has shown it in the past; a big move up the board would be a no-brainer if he can tap into that success he’s seen before at the SEC level. -Tyler Kotila C Ryder Helfrick (@RazorbackBSB) deposits this over the wall for a solo shot.

Most Likely To Make a Huge Jump in the Rankings in 2026 Wade Cozart (‘28, NM) competed in this complete game striking out 14 while filling up the zone consistently. Fastball up to 90mph and settled in at 85-88mph. Quick arm with a repeatable motion. #AZFallState pic.twitter.com/gqtiiIhkKY — Perfect Game Four Corners (@PG_FourCorners) October 18, 2025 Wade Cozart (2028, Carlsbad, NM) is a sneaky two-way player that has flown under the radar for now, but looks poised to make a significant jump next year. At the plate, the left-handed hitting Cozart possesses a fluid stroke with sneaky power. He posted an OPS over 1.400 in a smaller sample this summer. While there are some tools on the offensive side, Cozart's highest potential is likely on the mound. The righthander was up to 90 mph in PG events this year already with feel for a slider and changeup shown. He pounds the zone and...

Brighton Fontaine, RHP, Class of 2026 Commitment: St. John's Fontaine made his pact to the Johnnies and Coach Hampton, as the durable right-hander adds another to the staff that should be able to garner innings immediately upon reaching campus. He runs it into the low-90s with downhill plane and heaviness through the zone, as he generates plenty of misses when in the zone. He pairs it with a two-plane slider and heavy faded changeup to complete his repertoire. The durability, physicality scream innings eater should the command take a step forward. Brent Walulak, INF, Class of 2027 Commitment: Marist Walulak makes four commits for the Red Foxes and Coach Ratchford, bringing a level athleticism to the group that should make an impact once on campus. The left-handed hitting infielder can handle all three infield spots effectively albeit is probably better suited for second long-term....
