101. Simeon Woods Richardson, rhp, Kempner HS
R-R, 6-3/200, Houston, Texas
College Commitment: Texas

Woods-Richardson has had a very consistent spring, working in the low-90s and touching the mid-90s to go with a big downer curveball and improved command. Scouts know that he is a 17-year old senior and an above average athlete with some projection remaining, two factors that should positively impact his draft potential.

102. Jonathan Gates, lhp, Nature Coast Technical HS
L-L, 6-2/190, Brooksville, Fla.
College Commitment: Miami

Gates represents a talented lefthander who has some of the best command and pitchability in the class. The Miami signee works all three of his pitches to any quadrant of the plate in any count, and does a pretty good job at working backwards and utilizing the depths of his repertoire. In particular, Gates has one of the better changeups in the class and overall has a lot of polish for a prep arm.

For more on Gates view his High School Notebook report with video here.


103. Noah Song, rhp, Navy (JR)
R-R, 6-4/200, Claremont, Calif. 
Previously Drafted: Never Drafted

Song is one of the more fascinating case studies in this draft cycle, as the Navy righthander is in a most unique position. As a student at one of the armed forces academies, Song has a certain level of commitment to the Navy that he is required to keep, and that commitment could potentially inhibit him from signing a professional contract. Now, there are several circumstances and scenarios where this may be circumvented/pushed back, and we won't pretend to be able to explain all of them, but the fact of the matter is that Song's potential signability concerns have kept some teams from even considering the righthander. Regardless, Song is viewed as a solid early- to mid-Day 2 type of talent with a power arm, so in the vacuum of talent alone, he's potentially worthy of a fourth round pick, but we'll see how that all shakes out on draft day.

104. Brett Kinneman, of, North Carolina State (JR)
L-L, 6-0/190, York, Penn. 
Previously Drafted: Never Drafted

In a year where the NC State offense has an OPS of nearly .900 as a team, outfielder Brett Kinneman is more than doing his part, slashing .289/.406/.630 with 34 extra-base hits, including a team-leading 17 home runs. He's certainly done his part in the performance aspect, and though he has a high strikeout rate, he likewise has a high walk total. A solidly-built athlete with good tools, Kinneman is viewed as more of a left fielder as far as his future position in professional baseball, and though he has some holes in his swing, his lefthanded raw power and overall athleticism are enticing to scouts, and he's valued in the fourth round on the PG draft board as a result. 

For more on Kinneman check out his College Player Database scouting report with video here.


105. Isaiah Campbell, rhp, Arkansas (R-SO)
R-R, 6-4/235, Olathe, Kansas
Previously Drafted: Never Drafted

Campbell was lauded as a potential monster heading into the 2017 season before an injury kept him off the field for the entirety of that campaign, so his assault on the college baseball world had to wait a year. He's been a bit inconsistent this year with elevated walk totals and too many hits, but he's still striking out over a batter per inning and showing loud stuff. With a pro build and physicality, Campbell is capable of reaching the mid-90s with his fastball and backing it up three distinct off-speed pitches, all of which show the potential to be at least average. There is significant upside here, and it's important to remember that he's still just in his first season back from injury.

South Fall World Series Scout Notes

Jay Vossler
Article Image
Kason Mead (2029, Spring, Texas) had a great weekend for Premier Baseball Donato 2029. Went 5-9 with a pair of doubles and a home run, driving in five without striking out. Physical frame with a lot more strength on the way. Impressive bat speed that attacks the top of the zone well. Works to all fields consistently and the profile indicates that he’ll be able to build off that with more impact. Lot to like, should be a riser as he goes into his sophomore season. Sterling McCormack (2029, Magnolia, Texas) performed well for Premier Baseball Donato 2029. Reached four times, including a double. Gains ground well on the stride, using his physicality to his advantage as he stays on an uphill plane, geared for slug. Plenty of strength at the point of impact. Landon Hardy (2029, Spring, Texas) had a strong showing for Scorpions Team Easton 2029. Went 4-11 with a double and homer, driving...

Stars Being Stars These are some of the more well-known names on the national landscape, playing across several big events in which they performed at the highest of levels. Their showings in West Palm were simply a continuation of what we've almost come to expect at this point from them!  Kolt Hampton (2030, Chandler, AZ) is a left-handed hitting infielder with present barrel speed and twitch in the turn. Turned around an upper 80s heater that plated two runs in the first inning of the quarterfinals and never looked back. Also got it done on the rubber punching out three and topping out at 86. The number one player in Arizona produced all week and took care of business defensively.  Landen Davis (2030, Beaufort, SC) showed up at the dish this event hitting .500 with four doubles and five RBIs. Stays tight in the turn with present strength and the approach plays to all fields....

SBA Takes 14u Title Behind Offense

Jheremy Brown
Article Image
To say there were standouts all over the field for the 14u WWBA World Championship would be an understatement as the matchup of Team Elite 14u Scout and SBA Bolts National 14u saw two of the more loaded rosters going head-to-head with a title on the line. And after weather threw a giant wrench into pool play, both Sunday and Monday were nothing but sunshine and high intensity baseball leading into the final game of the event.  While the game ultimately ended via run rule after five in favor of SBA upon a 9 run inning, it was a tight contest up until that point with Team Elite carrying a 3-2 lead thru four innings.  Team Elite drew first blood as a Ross Logan walk quickly turned into the first run of the game following a well struck single by Cooper Ooten into left field who eventually came around to score following a double steal, scoring before the third out of the inning was...

PG Softball Chesterfield Fall Showcase HS Division Oct 17-18, 2026 Chesterfield First Community Athletic Complex CHESTERFIELD, MO — It was a perfect weekend for softball, with 16 teams converging on the Chesterfield First Community Athletic Complex to compete in the High School Division. Teams from Illinois, Minnesota, and Iowa were there to battle it out, and there was only one undefeated team in the tournament: the Southeast Iowa All-Stars 16U Gold Flowerbach, who went a stellar 5-0 on the weekend. We were treated to some stellar performances all weekend and below we highlight some of the standout athletes who caught our eyes.  Lucy Turner (2027, Marion, IA) of the Cedar Rapids Reds was a truly dynamic two-way player this past weekend. Offensively, she batted .444 with 5 RBIs and an impressive 6 stolen bases, which led the tournament. She also scored 6 runs for her team and...

Wildcatters Reign Supreme at 13u WWBA

Jheremy Brown

After both the Best of the West and the Beast of the East wrapped up, a big conglomerate of high end talent and stacked teams descended upon West Palm for both the 13u and the 14u WWBA World Championships. While the weather threw a wrench into the plans early on and some adjustment was needed to ensure the event moved forward, it was nothing but sunshine and competitive baseball throughout Sunday and into the early morning Monday.  Kicking off with the 13u WWBA World Championship, the first thing to point out is the fact this was a wood bat tournament played on 60-90 fields and while the combo was a first for most, you wouldn't know it with their level of play throughout the weekend. In an unsurprising twist and a continuation of their 12u dominance, the 13u championship saw the #2 seeded Goldin Prospects lock horns with the top seeded Houston Wildcatters, aka the champion of the...
