2018 Summer Collegiate Top Prospect Index

Year Established: 1885
States Represented: Massachusetts
No. of Teams: 10
Best overall record: EAST â€“ Orleans Firebirds (29-15) WEST â€“ Falmouth Commodores (25-19-1)
Postseason Champion:  Wareham Gatemen
No. 1 Prospect, 2017: Logan Gilbert, rhp, Orleans (Stetson)
First 2017 Player Selected, 2018 Draft: Joey Bart, c, Harwich (Georgia Tech; Giants/1st round)

Most Valuable Player: MatthewBarefoot, of, Hyannis (Campbell)
Outstanding Pitcher: Adam Laskey, lhp, Wareham (Duke)
Top Pro Prospect (as selected by league): J.J. Bleday, of, Orleans (Vanderbilt)

As we see every summer, the 2018 season on the Cape saw swarms of scouts flocking to Massachusetts as they began their lists for the 2019 June draft. Whether players are from a Power 5 program or a mid-major, they were able to leave their mark as they established themselves among the best. That includes players like J.J. Bleday of Vanderbilt, who took home the league’s Top Pro Prospect award, or Matthew Barefoot of Campbell, who was honored as the league’s MVP after hitting an impressive .379 over 140 regular season at-bats.

Due to the scheduling of the USA Collegiate National Team this summer several players were able to make longer reservations on the Cape this summer, leaving their mark on the league as each of the top four prospects suited up for the Red, White and Blue. The Pac-12 slug-fest last spring between Cal’s Andrew Vaughn and Arizona State’s Spencer Torkelson continued on the Cape as Torkelson blasted 10 home runs while Vaughn countered with five, though his overall hit tool and comfort in the box earned him the top spot on this list.

While the list is position player heavy at the top, West Virginia righthander Alek Manoah made arguably as much noise as anybody this summer, proving to be not only a physical presence at 6-foot-7, 270-pounds, but also one with a big arsenal highlighted by a fastball that topped out at 97 mph. Pitchers are showcased up and down the list, some with big stuff others with advanced pitchability and feel. Adam Laskey of Duke was tabbed the league’s Most Outstanding Pitcher after a big summer on the mound.

At the end of the summer it the Wareham Gatemen who hoisted the Arnold Mycock Trophy, sweeping the championship over the Chatham Anglers. Just as he had all summer, Florida International’s Austin Shenton continued to a hot bat, going 2-for-4 with three RBI in the clincher, allowing head coach Don Sneddon and the Gatemen to bring a championship back to Wareham for the first time since 2012. Shenton was named the PG/Rawlings Summer Collegiate Player of the Year as a result.

Top 30 Prospect Reports

1. Andrew Vaughn, 1b, Wareham (California/JR in 2019)
While he may not have the typical build often associated with first base at 5-foot-11, Vaughn arrived on campus as a primary infielder and could potentially move to a corner outfield position at the next level. Wherever Vaughn eventually calls home defensively there will be no mistaking his abilities with the stick as he has as much of a track record as any in college baseball. Vaughn has done nothing but shine during his first two years at Cal hitting .349-12-50 as a true freshman before taking home the Golden Spikes award last spring after hitting .402-23-63. His swing is geared to an all-fields approach with plenty of barrel skill and lots of strength, showing easy plus raw power while showing an advanced approach at the dish. Simply put, Vaughn is one of the best pure hitters with some of the best strength the 2019 draft class has to offer and he topped it off with an exceptional stint on the Cape in which he hit .306-5-14 prior to his time with USA.

Coastal All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley
Article Image
COASTAL REGION (NC, SC, VA, WV)  The first thing that stands out about the players on the Coastal Region team is that this is undoubtedly the fastest All-Region Team in the country.  There are four or five players who could legitimately have 80 grades on their running speed from the region and all have other tools to back up their speed. Another thing that jumps out is the quality of the juniors on the team.  While the region features only one 2025 PG All-American in left-handed pitcher Carson Bolemon, there are six juniors on the All-Region team who are ranked in the top 34 in the 2027 class, with plenty more talented underclassmen just behind them.  Three region high schools break into the Top 50 in the Perfect Game Pre-Season High School Rankings.  Charlotte Catholic at 33rd overall and Metrolina Christian Academy at 42nd represent the North Carolina schools...

2026 Staff Picks: College Edition

2026 College Preview Index With the D-I season opening up right around the corner, our staff came together and took a shot at who they'd pick within 7 different categories. Most are self explanatory while the "Sleeping GIant" category is in reference to a draft prospect outside of our latest Top 50 on the MLB Draft Board. It's also worth noting that once a player was selected for a category, he was unavailable for others to choose, outside of the Golden Spikes category, where we do see some double-ups.  Enjoy the weekend, there's sure to be plenty of excitement as baseball is officially back across the country at all collegiate levels!  Category Cohen Sutherland Cervino Billock Henninger Rankin Russo Impact Freshman Mason Braun Angel Cervantes Cooper Underwood Marcos Paz JD Stein Alec Blair Sam Cozart Impact Transfer Jake Schaffner Will Gasparino Brady Frederick Andrew Whalen...

Southwest All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley

SOUTHWEST REGION (AZ, NM, NV, UT, CO)  The most dominant tool in the Southwest Region for the 2026 season is undoubtedly power at the plate, as most players featured below not only have the size and bat speed to drive the ball but have put up the numbers as well.  While that isn’t exactly surprising given that virtually the entire region plays at elevation, it certainly stands out on the individual top prospects. The Region features four Perfect Game All-Americans in OF Ryan Harwood, IF Rookie Shepard and C Alain Gomez-Gudino and RHP Dylan Blomker.  The 2027 class is looking very promising as well, with four juniors gaining mention on the All-Region team below and Arizona in particular having a very talented class.  Keep an eye out especially for 2027 3B Colton Floyd (Corona Del Sol HS, Ariz.), one of the best and biggest power hitters in that class.

DII Top 25: February 11

Nick Herfordt
Article Image
Preseason rankings are less about certainty and more about expectation. Experience, continuity, and proven production tend to win in Division II baseball, but every spring reminds us how thin the margins can be. The teams below enter 2026 carrying varying combinations of momentum, pressure, and opportunity. Some are defending a standard. Others are chasing it.  At this level, projection is rarely about raw talent alone. It is shaped by familiarity, by the players who have been through a season together, by staffs that know how to manage the quiet stretches as well as the loud ones. Injuries, turnover, and postseason moments leave marks that don’t always show up in the numbers, but they shape how teams respond when games tighten.  The programs at the top of these rankings carry more than returning statistics. They carry memory and momentum. They remember what it felt like...
