Pacific Northwest Region Preview

David Rawnsley

The Northwest Region is led by a deep group of talented pitchers, led by PG All-American right-hander Noble Meyer and potential first day southpaw Paul Wilson, both Oregon products. The Region seems to have lots of projectable arms just below the All-Region level that it’s easy to imagine blossoming after three years in college.

The All-Region team is composed entirely of players from either Oregon or Washington this year, although Idaho right-hander Robert Orloski (Sr., Middleton HS, Idaho) narrowly missed the cut for the pitching staff.

Jesuit High School in Portland is the only Region team in the PG Pre-Season Top 50, checking in at 46th overall. The Crusaders are led by Meyer, All-Region 3B/OF Levi Jones and senior shortstop Ryan Cooney, an Oregon signee.

C – Carson Ohland (Sr., Tahoma HS, Wash.)
Ohland is a switch-hitting catcher with a solid bat and hit .426-2-14 with 23 walks in 22 games as a sophomore. Where the Washington signee really stands out is on defense, where he combines outstanding lower half quickness and athleticism with a strong throwing arm.

1B – Brody Mills (Sr., West Valley HS, Wash.)
Mills is a two-way standout who could see action both ways at Washington in college. The 6-foot-1, 220-pound left handed hitter has big power at the plate and also throws in the upper 80s on the mound with a big breaking slider.

MIF – Mason Pike (So., Puyallup HS, Wash.)
Like fellow All-Region honoree Xavier Neyens, Pike was a participant in the 2021 PG 14U Select Festival and is the 25th ranked player in the 2025 class nationally. A switch-hitter with strong barrel skills, Pike has all the athleticism to stay in the middle infield for the long term, including an arm that is already 90+ on the mound.

MIF – Sebastian David (Sr., Lakeside, HS, Wash.)
David is a very athletic middle infielder with 6.61 speed in the sixty and outstanding body control on defense. A right-handed hitter, David has some strength in his 6-foot-1, 195-pound build and can drive the ball to the gaps. The Stanford signee was named to the All-Tournament team at the 2022 WWBA World Championships while hitting .357 in six games.

3B – Xavier Neyens (So., Mount Verson HS, Wash.)
The 6-foot-4 Neyens is a former primary catcher who has moved to third base after outgrowing the catching position offensively. The 10th ranked player in the 2025 class, Neyens has outstanding left-handed bat speed and could develop top of the scale power as he continues to mature. His arm strength at third base won’t be a question as he’s already been up to 92 mph on the mound.

OF – Levi Jones (Sr., Jesuit HS, Ore.)
Jones is a primary third baseman but also plays outfield, where his 6.64 speed and 89 mph outfield arm will make him solid defensively out on the grass. His best tool is his left-handed bat and Jones hit .400-7-33 for Jesuit High School as a junior. He’s signed with Oregon State.

OF – Maxton Martin (Sr., Southridge HS, Wash.)
Martin is a the brother of Pittsburgh Pirates AAA first baseman Mason Martin and has lots of the same attributes as his older brother, who was drafted in the 17th round in 2017 out of Southridge High School. He’s a strong 6-foot-1, 205-pound left-handed hitter with tons of juice in his bat.

OF – Grady Woodward (Jr., Eastlake HS, Wash.)
Woodward is a very toolsy 6-foot-3, 190-pound right-handed hitter with center field tools on defense. He’s a high ceiling bat with outstanding hitting mechanics and very good bat speed for his age. The Washington commit hit .338-2-22 as a sophomore with 23 walks and 14 steals in 25 games.

LHP – Bjorn Johnson (Sr., Lincoln HS, Wash.)
Johnson is a very projectable 6-foot-2, 175-pound left hander with a fastball that can reach 91-92 mph to go with an outstanding changeup and a short well-controlled slider. He posted a 0.89 ERA as a junior with 68 strikeouts in 42 innings while also hitting .368 as a first baseman. Unlike many of his peers in the Northwest, Johnson is going cross country to attend school at Auburn.

RHP – Dane Lais (Sr., Oregon City HS, Ore.)
Lais has a big and strong body at 6-foot-4, 210-pounds and a smooth delivery that enables him to throw strikes with all three of his pitches. The Oregon State signee has already been seen in the 91-94 mph range this spring and also throws a low 80s slider and a change up.

RHP – Noble Meyer (Sr., Jesuit HS, Ore.)
Meyer was named the Oregon 6A State Pitcher of the Year in 2022 after going 10-0, 0.72 with 129 strikeouts in 58 innings. He’s the topped ranked right-handed pitcher in the 2023 class, checking in at eighth overall. Interestingly, Jesuit High School was also the home of right-hander Mick Abel, the Phillies first round pick in 2020.

RHP – Zach Swanson (Jr., Toutle Lake HS, Wash.)
Swanson is the highest ranked junior in the Region and checks in at 23rd overall in the 2024 class nationally. The highly athletic right-hander topped out at 94 mph at the 2022 WWBA World Championships to go with a swing and miss slider in an outstanding four-inning, one-hit, six-strikeout performance.

LHP – Paul Wilson (Sr., Lakeridge HS, Ore.)
The son of former MLB left-hander Trevor Wilson, Wilson was a dominant player on both sides of the ball as a junior, going 9-2, 0.74 with 155 strikeouts in 65 innings while also hitting .358-5-34. Wilson works in the low 90s consistently with his fastball and has an advanced ability to add and subtract from his breaking ball while throwing a changeup as well.

UT – Drew Rayment (Jr., Mt. Spokane HS, Wash.)
Rayment is 6-foot-5, 195-pound athlete with a complete tool box on the baseball field and is also an outstanding basketball player. He’s a 6.51 runner in the sixty with big left-handed power potential at the plate but may have a higher ceiling on the mound with a fastball that topped out in the upper 80s last summer to go with an 80 mph slider.

Northwest Region Top Tools

Best Hitter for Average: Levi Jones (Sr., Jesuit HS, Ore.)
Jones’ left-handed bat is already very advanced and he’s very smooth through the zone and sees the ball very well. He should be able to adjust to college level pitching immediately.

Best Hitter for Power: Xavier Neyens (So., Mount Verson HS, Wash.)
Neyens already has a swing geared for power with lots of natural lift and he doesn’t get cheated at the plate either. He still has plenty of room to add strength to his long 6-foot-4, 195-pound build.

Best Runner: Drew Rayment (Jr., Mt. Spokane HS, Wash.)
Rayment’s 1.46 10-yard split when he ran a 6.51 sixty really stands out for an athlete of his length. He might be the type who’s running 6.2’s or 6.3’s this summer.

Best Defensive Catcher: Carson Ohland (Sr., Tahoma HS, Wash.)
Ohland was so impressive defensively at the 2022 PG West MLK Championship that he was named Most Valuable Player for the event despite hitting only .231 over six games. He should be able to step in immediately behind the plate at the college level and excel.

Best Defensive Infielder: Sebastian David (Sr., Lakeside, HS, Wash.)
David is a polished defender who does his best work on the move where his athleticism really comes into play. His 90 mph infield arm strength is plenty to keep him on the left side of the field.

Best Defensive Outfielder: Grady Woodward (Jr., Eastlake HS, Wash.)
Woodward has the combination of length, speed and arm strength that almost invariably produces high level defenders in the outfield.

Best Defensive Arm: Xavier Neyens (So., Mount Verson HS, Wash.)
Neyens arm plays at any position on the field and is just going to keep getting better as the 16-year old sophomore fills out and gets even stronger.

Best Fastball: Noble Meyer (Sr., Jesuit HS, Ore.)
Meyer’s gained about 10 mph on his fastball between his sophomore and junior summers and now pitches consistently in the 94-96 mph range and tops out at 98. It seems like just a matter of time until he’s touching triple digits.

Best Off-Speed Stuff: Noble Meyer (Sr., Jesuit HS, Ore.)
Meyer’s mid-80s slider regularly generates spin rates in the elite 3,000-3,100 rpm range and has been two-plane break when he stays on top of the ball. He also throws an upper 80s changeup with some feel to it; just the concept of a high school arm throwing a viable upper 80s change up stands out.

Best Pitchability: Miles Gosztola (Sr., West Seattle HS, Wash.)
Gosztola is a 6-foot-3, 190-pound lefty who pitches in the upper 80s and occasionally touches higher to go with an outstanding curveball and solid changeup. He posted a perfect 0.00 ERA as a junior while striking out 97 hitters in 49 innings and only allowing 18 walks. Gosztola is signed with Gonzaga.

Best Multi-Sport Athlete: Zach Swanson (Jr., Toutle Lake HS, Wash.)
Swanson is an outstanding basketball player in addition to his ability on the mound and averaged well over 20 points a game as a junior, including a season high 38 points. He surpassed 1,000 points as a sophomore.

Georgia HS All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley

Georgia has its usual depth of high-level athletes and Perfect Game All-Americans, although three 2027 players did make the All-Region team. There are an unusual number of two-way prospects among the All-Region players, a testament to the big arms that the state has right now. Two Georgia high schools are ranked in the top 10 of the PG Pre-Season High School Top 50 rankings and the Georgia high school ranks are annually among the most competitive in the country. Etowah is the highest ranked team at 5th overall, while Blessed Trinity Catholic checks in at 8th. Parkview is the only other Georgia team in the top 50, holding down the 34th spot. OF-RHP Dexter McCleon Jr will be fixture on the Georgia All-Region team for the next two years but the top ranked prospect in the 2028 class will have to take a back seat to his elders this year. McCleon’s absurd...

Baseball Meets Hollywood For Great Cause

Jim Salisbury

BASEBALL MEETS HOLLYWOOD FOR A GREAT CAUSE There’s no crying in baseball, but there is laughing, and there was lots and lots of it -- for a great cause -- last Saturday night in Hollywood, California. Perfect Game and its Believe in Baseball Foundation assembled a star-studded cast of comics and guests for the inaugural “In the Spirit of the Game” dinner and auction. The event was held at the iconic Laugh Factory, a historic venue that, in baseball terms, would be equivalent to Dodger Stadium or Wrigley Field. Late-night superstar Jay Leno took a turn on stage. So did comedic aces Tiffany Haddish, Nikki Glaser, Dustin Ybarra and Gary Cannon. “It was 4 ½ hours of straight laughter,” said PG commissioner Dennis Gilbert, still beaming a couple of days later. “It was a really nice success.” No one kept score at the event, but...

West Region High School Sleepers

Joey Cohen

Talking and debating sleeper prospects might be my favorite part of scouting. It’s where context, projection, and conviction matter most—whether it’s an underrated performer who keeps producing on the circuit, a raw but explosive athlete you can dream on, or an arm with starter traits that hasn’t quite made the stuff jump yet. These are the players who tend to separate evaluators, reward patience, and make the spring HS season really fascinating. Below are several West Region prospects outside the T100 who fit that mold and deserve serious attention as the spring unfolds. Jet Berry, Queen Creek HS, Arizona There’s a lot to like with Berry. He’s one of the more explosive, twitchy athletes in the country, and it shows consistently in all facets of his game. From a tools perspective his easy plus run and bat-to-ball ability stand out. He’s been a...

Preseason NAIA Top 25

Nick Herfordt

The 2026 NAIA Baseball Rankings arrive with the familiar weight of expectations and a few fresh storylines that make the new season feel electric from top to bottom. At the very front of the pack, perennial power Tennessee Wesleyan stands tall once again, a program that has turned sustained excellence into something bordering on routine. The Bulldogs are not just ranked highly, they set the tone. Year after year, they combine elite talent, veteran leadership, and a culture that refuses to blink under pressure. It says everything about the depth of this year’s field that it was genuinely difficult not to slide LSU Shreveport back into the top spot yet again. After all, how in the world does a team stay that good after losing so many impact players? The answer is simple and timeless. Success breeds success. Programs that live in championship air know how to reload, not reset, and...
