The rankings as shown below are a combination of Perfect Game's personal observations and opinions combined with those from the scouting community.

2023 MLB Draft: Top 75 Prospects
2023 MLB Draft: Top 50 College Prospects
2022 MLB Draft: Top 150 Prospects
Friday: 2021 MLB Draft: Top 400 Prospects

2020 was a weird year in terms of the MLB Draft. As with most of the country, baseball experienced an upheaval due to the global pandemic and, as such, future drafts and the sport entirely are going to be looking a little bit different moving forward. The 2021 draft is looking to be around 20 rounds and was moved back into mid-July which allows for another couple of weeks to be added for the age cut off concerning players who will be eligible in their second year. We’re not going to pretend to know what the official draft dates will look like in 2022 or 2023 so we’ve put these underclass lists together under the presumption that the date will remain the same as it is now. Player eligibility for each draft year will change dependent on the date but this is what the top 2022 prospects would look like if that draft took place from July 11, 2022 through July 13, 2022. Many impact freshmen are eligible to be drafted in their second year and are included this list but considering the five round draft earlier this year, the 2022 list is loaded with talent.

PG Top 400 Draft Board Breakdown
With a recent update to our Top 400 Draft Board, the PG Draft Team took a deeper dive into some of the biggest risers as well as some names making their debut.

2024 Mock Draft: April 11
We're still so far away from the July date of the 2024 MLB Draft that anything can, and likely will, happen moving forward but here's how the draft team sees things falling into place if the draft were to happen now.

MLB Draft Board Update: Top 400
The 2024 MLB Draft doesn’t happen for another three months, but it has already drawn a reputation for being a bit light in terms of overall talent compared to years past. The truth is we’re not going to know that answer for at least another five years or so but there are strengths to this class particularly at the top of the draft.
