Jupiter Recap: Uncommitted...For Now

Jupiter Recap: Stars Being Stars

WWBA World Championship Scout Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Days 4-5

Today we're pretty self explanatory. The players below all entered Jupiter with an uncommitted tag next to their name, but given their talents and performances, that's something that shouldn't last long. So if you're a school looking for a late pick up in your 2026 class or looking ahead to add a stud to your 2027 class, go no further than down below to uncover some names. 



Ryder Olson (2026 Perkasie, PA) was one of the major uncommitted standouts over the course of Jupiter, coming out of the pen chucking straight fuel for Team Northeast up to 95 mph with a handful of 92-4s. The 6-foot-3, 170 pound prospect is still super projectable with a clean arm that may not be done developing yet. In just his first PG appearance of the year, Olson certainly made it count, as the Perkasie native now has a wide range of interest across the country, really showing what Jupiter is all about.

Zander Wills (2026 Hudsonville, MI) has had a monster 2025 season on the bump that deserves to be appreciated, as the 6-foot-1, 195 pound prospect now holds a 1.73 ERA over the course of 56.2 IP including 71 Ks to just 29 BB. Wills once again put together a quality appearance in Jupiter, running the FB up to 90 mph with present jump out of the hand from a low ¾ slot. He has feel for spin in the arsenal and clearly knows how to pitch, making for a refined arm that should be finding a home soon.

Joseph Soto (2026 Alpharetta, GA) is another arm who’s been performing at a high level all Summer, as the 5-foot-11, 180 pound LHP finishes the year with a 1.20 ERA in 23.1 IP with 27 punchouts. The Alpharetta native constantly misses barrels and sequences effectively to keep hitters off balance, working in the 86-89 mph range with natural movement present. He replicates arm speed on the CH effectively and kills spin in the 1500 rpm range, locating to all quadrants of the zone. Soto is another guy that should have plenty of interest heading into the offseason with clear stats to back up that interest.

-AJ Denny
Kaden Wasniewski, LHP, Cincinnati Reds Scout Team

Wasniewski has been one of the premier arms on the 2027 circuit for a while now, and he showed out his stuff in Jupiter, working 90-93 mph on the fastball, and a sharp slider in the upper-80s, with feel to turn over an upper-80s changeup as well. It’s a high-caliber delivery and arm action with tons to like moving forward. It’s a terrific profile that will make a school very happy at the next level.

Maddux Mueller, IF/RHP, Iowa Select Scout 2026

Mueller is one of the premier uncommitted talents remaining on the Midwest circuit from the 2026 class. Mueller is a 6-foot-3, 190-pound frame and build, with present strength and physicality. He controls the barrel well and takes really quality at-bats, showing feel to leverage and lift the baseball. He’s more than serviceable on the infield as well. He had a good week in Jupiter possesses a profile that would be a great addition to any program.

Kyle Rogosienski, SS/3B, Wow Factor National 17U

Rogosienski picked up a few hits on the weekend for his Jupiter squad, producing well-struck barrels. He’s athletic in the box, with a clean move through contact, and can impact it to all fields. He has strength throughout that leads me to believe he can hit for both average and for power at the next level. Rogosienski is one of the premium uncommitted players on the Midwest circuit remaining.

- Tyler Kotila

Lukas Waite (2027, San Diego, Calif.) had two different scoreless relief outings where he overpowered hitters with his low 90s, T93 fastball while mixing in a sharp upper 70s breaker (~2600). It’s a repeatable delivery that works with force down the mound and a real whippy arm that accelerates to release. Seems like Lukas is still just scratching the surface of his potential as it’s a 6-foot-2 frame that still can add strength/mass and it’s a real athletic engine underneath the hood. #73 in '27 class nationally. 

Pratt Morley (2027, Spanish Fork, UT) was dominant in his one three shutout inning outing last week where he gave up just one hit and struck out six. There’s some present strength to his 6-foot-2, 200-pound frame that moves within a loose low effort operation that still produces easy low 90s, T93 velocity. The fastball came out the hand with a ton of life exhibiting ride/run type action, and the slider showed sharp and late depth in the low 80s. High level uncommitted arm in the four-corner region that most definitely helped his national recruiting stock with this outing. 

Max Tello (2026, Chula Vista, Calif.) has been stringing together a streak of dominant outings together as our scouting staff took in strong performances of his at the Champions Cup, WWBA National Invite and he threw four shutout innings last week giving up just one hit and striking out seven. It’s not super loud stuff but it’s consistent strikes with his complete mix, pitchability and a somewhat deceptive delivery that still shows balance and repeatability. Any talk of uncommitted ‘26 arms in SoCal needs to start with Tello. 1.24 ERA across 22.2 innings this summer/fall circuit. 

-Joey Cohen


Chris Guillory, RHP, Covington, GA. MLB Breakthrough Series (2026)
Guillory's projectable 6-foot-4, 195 frame suggests room for velocity gains, making him an intriguing prospect on the mound. Currently ranked #9 among Georgia right-handed pitchers, Guillory was uncommitted when he arrived in Jupiter. His performance on the mound indicated he wouldn’t be for long. Immediately after the WWBA’s he committed to the University of Houston proving he was already on the radar. Keep an eye on this projectable, talented pitcher as he continues to develop into his frame.

CJ Woolcock, 1B, Lilburn, GA. East Cobb Astros ST (2026)
Continues to turn heads with his projectable 6-foot-5, 205 lb frame and raw power potential. Woolcock demonstrated his ability to impact games with the bat. A 6.67 runner further cement his status as Georgia's #4-ranked uncommitted first baseman. As Woolcock remains uncommitted, his projectable frame and current tools make him a high-follow prospect for college programs looking to bolster their lineups with a power-hitting first baseman.

Ayden Roman, C, Queens, NY. MLB Breakthrough Series (2026)
New York's top-ranked catcher in the class, made a statement in Jupiter with a jaw-dropping 3-run home run. Roman's athletic build and strength are evident. His ability to handle velocity and drive the ball suggests a hitter with the tools to impact games at the next level. As he enters his senior season, Roman's performance at this high-profile event underscores his readiness to contribute immediately to a collegiate program

-Steve Doherty

Jason Phillips, East Cobb/SD Padres ST

Phillips was one of the biggest pop-up two-way talents over the summer on the circuit and he continued to shine in Jupiter. The ultra-physical corner infielder/right-handed pitcher has big strength in the box that has shown up in a big way in PG events. On the bump, he has run the fastball into the low-90s and it comes out easy with a three pitch mix. He’s one of the top uncommitted talents in the entire ’26 class.


Jackson Kolb, Midwest Halos/Blizzard Elite Scout Team

Kolb got the ball to end pool play against one of the tougher lineups in the event and absolutely shoved, going 5 2/3 innings with eight punchouts. The stuff isn’t overwhelming as he worked in the upper-80s throughout but the ability to mix and match quality pitches in any count was as good as any I saw in Jupiter. It’s an underclass name that stood out in the biggest event of the year and is a Minnesota arm people should jot down to follow up on next summer. 


Griffin Boesen, Canes Midwest National

It’s not very often you see an underclass bat come down to Jupiter and dominate, but that’s exactly what Boesen did for Canes Midwest National through their deep run through the playoffs. The 6-foot-4, 190-pound uncommitted first baseman wrapped up the event hitting a staggering .700 with a double and ten RBI, 14 hits overall through the event. It was quite the performance for Boesen and he was on the barrel throughout against elite arms, this is yet another name to know in the ’27 class that had a monster showing in front of a lot of eyes.


Zach Bender, Canes American 18u

Every time I see Bender, all he does is hit and that was no different in one of the premier events of the entire calendar year in Jupiter. The 5-foot-10, 183-pound outfielder was on the barrel a bunch in Jupiter, collecting three hits over three games, including a double and a triple while driving in six. The bat-to-ball skills stand out and somehow, he’s still uncommitted.

-Cam McElwaney

Carter McMillan (2026, Douglas, Georgia) toed the rubber and showed plenty to like throughout his outing going 4 innings while striking out 6 batters. He worked up to 91 with his fastball and lived in the upper-80s with late life. Showed excellent feel to spin it with a curve in the low-70s and a slider flashed in the mid-70s. He has the stuff to play at the next level and has the frame to go with it standing in at 6-foot-5. The projection is very real and should not remain uncommitted.

Josh Horvath (2026, Round Rock, Texas) is another one of those Texas flamethrower type arms that is going to throw very hard later down the road. He still has a lot more to tap into and this is a high upside arm that will make an impact at any program. Horvath worked up to 93 with his fastball with a nasty slider in the 77-78 range that plays hard. He also has a change in the low-80s. Both secondaries will need more polish, but he has shown flashes of what it could be when it all gets put together. Absolutely no reason for Horvath to remain uncommitted.

Alex Famolari (2026, Lebanon, New Jersey) is another high upside arm who was uncommitted going into the event and remains uncommitted. He went 3 dominant innings in his outing while striking out 5 batters from a physical 6-foot-3 frame. Fastball worked up to 92 with great life out of his hand and was located well. Slider was 78-81 with bite and could locate it. Also showed a change in the 82-85 range. It’s a quality 3-pitch mix and the stuff is polished for what it is. He should be getting plenty of interest after showing the stuff out in Jupiter.

-Geoff Billock

Soren Etheridge (2027, Phoenix, Ariz.) showed one of the best fastballs in the entire class. It’s a low launch carry flat four-seam at 90-94 from a 5-foot-5 release height, garnering 13 whiffs and played up in the zone. He mixed in a curveball and slider with a mid-80s changeup that all need some time to refine, but the arm talent is immense and he’s a must follow in the class and impressed playing up. 

Allem Borrero (2026, Hormigueros, P.R.) an uncommitted talent from Puerto Rico who has legit left-handed power. It’s a simple setup and process and he stings balls out front with middle of the order type upside if it all comes together. He has untapped arm talent on the bump too, a big talent that should get scooped up. 

Juriel Collazo (2026, Ponce, P.R.) a rangy middle infielder who produced one of the loudest EVs of the event, a 98 mph exit velocity on a clean inside knock facing low-90s. There is feel to hit, staying inside and producing clean cuts with a good set of feet and hands at short. There is well-rounded tools across the board with a knack for the game that should not go unnoticed. 

-Isaiah Burrows

‘27 Damarcus Rideout-Carter (CAN) was really, really good for two innings… up to 91 with life thru zone & spun 26-800 RPM SL in upper 70’s with tight 2-plane shape. Fast arm, good mover & lots of physical projection. #WWBAWorlds @pg_int1 @PG_Uncommitted pic.twitter.com/HDuejov5UA


‘27 Damarcus Rideout-Carter (Brampton, ON, CAN)

The uncommitted Canadian was up to 91-mph in his two inning look, filling up the zone with a good quality heater and spinning a tight two plane slider with spin rates registering up to 2800. It’s a fast arm and good mover down the slope, repeating his motion well with a clean arm path that is consistently on time. The frame has plenty of room to hold more mass without sacrificing anything… stuff and strikes with room for much, much more.
 

Joshua Priest (‘27 CA)- with his 2nd 💣 of the game. This one a solo-shot that got out in a hurry & eventual game-winner. @California_PG #WWBAWorlds @PG_Uncommitted https://t.co/v5BAgmCI3G pic.twitter.com/HiNVYgpqxq


‘27 Joshua Priest (San Diego, CA)

Mentioned in the “Stars Being Stars” article before this one, it was just too good of a performance to leave him off this list as well. Priest has the tools and makeup to thrive at the highest level of collegiate baseball once his prep days are over, and that is readily apparent to any coach who takes in a game of his. It’s an extremely high motor with a twitch/strength profile that allows him to play centerfield while also hitting .400 on the week and hitting two homeruns. As good of an uncommitted profile as you will find nationwide for this class.
 

‘27 Tielor Howie (KY) rifles this to left & drives in a big run T5. Athletic CF that made a really nice diving grab, fast hands with a compact swing. #WWBAWorlds @PG_OhioValley @PG_Uncommitted https://t.co/aDzcEsz5h2 pic.twitter.com/yP4v5HLFaW


‘27 Tielor Howie (Richmond, KY)

Athletic centerfielder that would hit .421 on the week over a good sample, as his Canes Midwest club would make a deep run in the playoffs. It’s a simple swing with a good set of hands, showing quickness with a linedrive stroke that works all parts of the field with hard contact. He possesses a lean, athletic 6’1/175 build and will hold more muscle without issue down the line. Easy to like and recruit centerfielders that can handle the bat well on the biggest stage against the best in the country. 
 

‘26 Lincoln Turner (WA)- Good body @ 6’3/185 with more there, up to 89-mph with full mix of SL/CB/CH; SL showing sharp with RPM up to 2700 & comfort landing IZ. #WWBAWorlds @PG_PacificNW @PG_Uncommitted pic.twitter.com/ts1CuOluAk


‘26 Lincoln Turner (Bothell, WA)

Nice uncommitted arm in the pacific northwest region that came down with the MN Twins ST/Canes Southwest club and threw well over three innings, allowing just one hit with five strikeouts. Good size at 6’3/195, providing a durable and strong frame. Up to 89-mph in this look with capacity to spin it well and land in zone, snapping it off with raw spin up to 2700 RPM. Good traits here within a recruitable profile. 
 

‘27 RJ Shields (FL) came out blowing some smoke in the 1st, sat 93-95 to open with 2400 RPM & life to the top rail. Sharp SL @ 79 played well with good action. Compact w/ good lines down the slope. #WWBAWorlds @Florida_PG @PG_Uncommitted pic.twitter.com/CIXArYTixY


‘27 RJ Shields (Venice, FL)

Another name mentioned in the “Stars” article, Shields is also an uncommitted name that deserves to be on the list too. He was up to 95-mph on a carry heater with a sharp slider to pair, a good 1-2 punch that will have the attention of anybody - coach, scout or fan, in attendance. It’s not too hard to convince yourself of the ceiling of this profile.

-Michael Albee

Yadiel Perez (’26 FL) getting a look at the switch hitting third baseman twice over the course of the fall left impressions. It’s a clean hack from either side with more pop on the right side. That being said, he left the yard in pool play action from the left-side amongst the many hits Perez compiled across the event. While he does play short, I think he profiles best as an athletic third baseman. Good lateral mover for the size with plenty of arm strength for the spot. Pro bloodlines and top of the scale person. Potential difference making player type player at the next level. 

Parker Reavis  (’26 SC) Came away impressed with the undersized right hander. He repeats a clean operation well with low tension stroke that produces carry through the top of the zone at 88-91, topping out at 92. Mixed in two polished off speed pitches behind the fastball with a two plane slider and downer kick change.  Commands the whole arsenal well and can really sequence and execute. Plenty more in the tank velocity wise and has an air of high level pitching acumen. 

Baylor Denny (’27 AZ) The middle infielder from Arizona shine all week with more of a coordination over athleticism type profile. It’s a quick clean stroke that has innate feel to barrel. Sound mover on the dirt that has all the actions. Intent and feel for the game stands out on both sides of the ball and should be scooped up in short order if he continues to play at the level he is capable of. 

-Troy Sutherland

‘26 Bane Barker (FL) with 4 Ks thru 2 hitless frames thus far. Heater being worked e-w with good life thru the zone (89-90, T92). Landing his 2-plane BB w/ teeth for Ks (clip). Lean 6’8” 223-lb frame w/ more in the tank. #Uncommitted.#WWBAWorlds @Florida_PG pic.twitter.com/dCmmVGJS8K


Bane Barker (2026 RHP/1B, Jacksonville, Fla.) wears a physically-imposing 6-foot-8 223-pound frame with an arm that throws baseballs 92 mph. However, he doesn’t just throw hard or offer a ton of projection. The uncommitted right-hander has performed. He tossed three hitless innings in Jupiter, punching out seven while allowing just two walks. He worked his fastball in all parts of the strike zone, living in the upper-80s mph range with a 92 showing up early on. The heater showed good life through the zone with short arm-side run, setting up his two-plane breaking ball to make appearances later on in counts. His breaker showed bite and late depth to it, proving effective against both righty and lefty bats. Command has been a strong suit for Barker, who threw 24 innings at PG events this summer with a 40-8 strikeout-to-walk ratio. He allowed just a single earned run during those appearances.

Landon Klein (2027 C/IF, Snohomish, Wash.) had a very impressive showing at the plate in Jupiter, batting .500 with five runs scored and another five driven in over the course of six games. The 5-foot-11 righty hitter was all over the barrel, spraying hard line drives to all parts of the field. He showcased his speed and baserunning ability while also proving to be a reliable bat for his team in high-pressure situations. The uncommitted catcher swings a whippy barrel that adjusts well to both spin and velocity.

Androckles Larsen (2026 LHP, Davie, Fla.) showed out in two separate appearances on the mound in Jupiter. The 6-foot-3 southpaw tossed a total of 8.2 scoreless innings, collecting five strikeouts while allowing just four hits and two walks to a couple of quality lineups. He induced a ton of weak contact from opposing hitters, allowing his fielders to make relatively easy plays. The uncommitted left-hander lives in the low-80s with great command and feel for his secondary offerings. He looks to pepper the corners of the strike zone and get hitters to swing at his pitches. The velocity will certainly improve for Larsen as he continues to add strength to his frame.

- Anthony Gambardella

Carter (Cj) Lake (2026, St. Louis, MO) put together a standout performance on the mound in Jupiter. FB at 92-95 for 3 innings. 2 distinct breaking balls with depth and sharp traits. One of the hardest throwers in the Midwest region. Whoever lands him is going to get a great late addition to their roster. 

Jacsen Tucker (2027, Oswego, IL) an athletic 6-foot-4 shortstop with big offensive upside.  Hit .400 in Jupiter 6 RBI and 8 runs scored. There’s big traits here with power projection and the chance to stick in the middle of the field. All the traits to be an impact player at the next level. 

Grayden Seuferling (2026, Blue Springs, MO) has now put together back-to-back national level tournaments with scoreless outings. Went 2 scoreless with 3 strikeouts in Jupiter. Featured a FB up to 94 and an effective gyro shape SL. A really fast arm on the mound. Whoever lands him is getting a good one. 

-Blaine Peterson

Wilson Shaw (‘27 FL)- with 4 scoreless IP in relief on 1H. @PG_Uncommitted LHP w/FB to both sides up to 86 w/ SL 72-75 & CH seen here 77/78. 61% strikes w/ 8 punch outs. #WWBAWorlds @Florida_PG pic.twitter.com/PS6r7fPxec


Wilson Shaw (’27, Englewood, Fla.)- the uncommitted left-handed pitcher from Lemon Bay High School tossed four innings of scoreless relief for BPA. He displayed a feel to command the strike zone with a solid three-pitch mix. With a slight crossfire delivery working from the third base side of the rubber, Shaw gets over his front side as the fastball velocity plays up. He works a slider off the same plane and flashed a changeup with fading action to right-handed hitters. A dominant effort from Shaw as he was named to the 2025 PG WWBA World Championship All-Tournament Team (Pitching).

Nice look here at #Uncommitted Payton Holinka (‘27,AZ). Intriguing High Spin Arsenal; FB up to 89 mph (high 2500’s) & well-tunneled CB in the upper-70s T80 (2680 RPMs). Repeats well; pounding the zone at a 70% clip. #WWBAWorlds @PG_FourCorners @PG_Uncommitted pic.twitter.com/WYKGKYEcyU


Payton Holinka (’27, Gilbert, Az.)- the 6-foot-2, 186-pound right-handed pitcher showcased some solid stuff over three scoreless innings pitched for Ghost National. The Perry High School senior ran the fastball up to 88 mph with spins (2500+) and ride through the top of the zone. He coupled it with a sharp breaking ball with depth (2600-2700 RPM) to change eye levels and control the zone. Holinka finished with four strikeouts on just 39 pitches. Holinka controlled the zone at a 71% strike rate from his high slot and clean delivery down the slope. For his efforts, he was named to the 2025 PG WWBA World Championship All-Tournament Team (Pitching). 

Troy Mastrogianakis (’26, Marietta, Ga.)- the 6-foot-2, 180-pound outfielder displayed a solid toolset on both sides of the ball for the East Cobb Astros. The right-handed hitter from North Cobb Christian High School turned around velocity during his at-bats with multiple hits including a long double to left-centerfield against Ghost National. Leading off against mid-90s arm, he jumped all over a high fastball in the 1st inning and drilled a one-hop double off the fence to get things started for the Astros. The drive ignited the offense as the Astros went on to upset Ghost National 4-1. A primary outfielder, he showcased his athleticism on defense with the ability to play all three spots and the versatility to fill in at both corners on the dirt. Mastrogianakis is just breaking the surface on his athletic potential as a versatile defender with barrel control and strength in the box and the skills needed to compete at the next level.

Joe Villavicencio (’26, Burleson, Tex.)- the 6-foot, 180-pound right-handed pitcher did not allow a hit over four innings of relief for GBG National 2026. The Burleson High School senior dominated The Dream NTL 18U lineup with eight strikeouts to just one walk on 53 pitches to get the win. Working from an abbreviated windup and quick leg lift, he sat in the upper-80s on the fastball and coupled it with a slider in the high-70s. An athletic delivery and quick arm from Villavicencio, he was named to the 2025 PG WWBA World Championship All-Tournament Team (Pitching).

-Jason Phillips

Will Meehan (‘26 NJ) working 85-89 in relief. Difficult AB w angle to the FB & feel for the sweeping style slider. #WWBAWorlds @PGMidAtlantic @PG_Uncommitted pic.twitter.com/F2hprMKzSu


Will Meehan, LHP, Hazlet,NJ

Meehan was outstanding in “Jupiter” as the uncommitted left-hander worked four no-hit innings against a loaded SBA Bolts National squad. He ran the fastball up to 89 mph in this look with easy life out of the hand and generated tons of whiffs in the zone. It is a simple delivery with good lower half engagement, plenty of arm speed and he does a nice job of creating a tough angle with his slot. He paired it well with a sweeping slider that has big swing-and-miss potential, while also showing the aptitude to manipulate the shape to it at-times. He completes his arsenal with a firmer, well-replicated change up with heavy sidespin and fade to it. He punched out five on the biggest stage in amateur baseball, has all the ingredients to succeed in various roles for anyone looking for an immediate impact arm in the 2026 class.

Ethan Dubois, INF, Newfield, NJ

Dubois has been about as steady of a performer that I’ve seen throughout the circuit this year and continued to just “Hit” in Jupiter. The right-handed hitting infielder possesses advanced barrel skills and impacts the baseball with authority to all fields. He hit .500 at the WWBA Worlds despite nursing a fractured thumb, which epitomizes the toughness he has as well. His 2025 state line speaks for itself, as he his hitting .453 with twenty-one of his forty-eight hits going for extra bases. Defensively, he offers versatility with the ability to play on both sides of the infield and can even handle a corner outfield spot. The bat is the carrying tool and this bat can surely impact a lineup immediately. 

#Uncommitted Enmanuel Acevedo (‘27,NY) running it up to 95 mph here w/ carry thru the zone. Super physical 6’5 RHP; repeats operation well. Varied command but huge intrigue/peojection. #WWBAWorlds @PG_Uncommitted @PGMidAtlantic pic.twitter.com/aXOhTOPKH6


Enmanuel Acevedo, RHP, New York, NY

Acevedo possesses some of the highest upside and stuff within the Class of 2027, as the strongly built uncommitted right-hander works in the low-to-mid 90s with his fastball and pairs with two potential swing-and-miss secondary offerings. There is no denying the physical projection along with the real arm strength. The advancement in his overall command could lead to plenty of eyes watching very closely over the next few years but for now he may be the top uncommitted arm in the class. Look for someone to scoop him up rather quickly, as the high-octane stuff is just too good to pass up. 
 
-John McAdams

Adam Bowman (2026, Iowa City, IA) was really good for Iowa Select 2026 Scout in his start on the mound. The sturdy 6-0/195 righthander put his club in position to win and impressed with his ability to command the strike zone. He had to navigate some traffic in the first inning and once he did, he cruised through his 4.0 IP. Bowman uses a full, inline arm path, a high ¾ arm angle and a rather short stride giving you the feel that there is more to come stuff wise. His fastball held the upper-80s throughout and he only needed 51 pitches to finish his outing with 76% strikes. He showed the ability to spin the ball proficiently as well, with a mid-70s two-plane slider. All told, Bowman allowed 5 hits, 1 earned run, 1 walk and he finished 6 batters via the strike out.

Benjamin Reed (‘26 TX) looks sharp in the early innings, collecting 3 Ks in his first 2.0 IP…FB up to 90 from a lower angle, cross fire look…SL is a real out pitch in the low-80s @PG_Uncommitted #WWBAWorlds pic.twitter.com/e5bstpZLrc


Benjamin Reed (2026, Grapevine, TX) put together an impressive outing as he held the line for SBA Bolts National 2026 in a scoreless battle through the first 5.0 innings played. The righty is a compact 6-0/185 and has a unique delivery that creates deception to go with his explosive arm. Bowman gets a lot of inward turn at balance and has a crossfire look to his delivery before accelerating through a low-3/4 arm angle. Going 6.0 IP, he held his velocity over the course of 93 pitches, allowing 3 hits, 1 earned run, 3 walks and he collected 7 strikeouts.

Kekahupono Kong (2027, Mililani, HI) was a workhouse out of the bullpen for Hawaii Elite 26 National. The righty made an impressive 3-appearances in five days for his club and didn’t surrender a single run. Using a full arm path, Kong featured a fastball that reached 90 mph several times and was still living in the upper-80s in his last appearance. He supplements his lively heater with a mostly vertical breaker in the low-70s. Kong finished his week with 6.0 IP over those 3 appearances, allowing just 2 hits, 3 walks and accumulated 8 strikes outs in total.

2027 MLB Draft Board Update: Top 200

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
PG Draft Content Hub With the fall season winding down and the winter months approaching, it is time for another draft board update.  After getting more live looks and gathering information from the fall action across the country, we have expanded the board to a Top-200. The class continues to feature an intriguing mix of arms from both the prep and college ranks, along with an enticing position player pool.  There is still plenty of time for new names to emerge and established prospects to continue to improve their draft stock, but here is where things stand as we head into the winter.  * denotes draft eligible sophomore Rk.

Virginia Cavaliers  2026 In Review:  Under the leadership of first year Head Coach Chris Pollard, the Cavaliers won 37 games which was the second most victories by a first-year coach in program history.  Virginia went (37-23) finishing tied for 8th in the ACC and earned an at-large bid to the Hattiesburg Regional.  They fielded a talented offense that averaged over 8-runs per game, highlighted by AJ Gracia and Eric Becker who were both selected on Day 1 of the 2026 MLB Draft.  While the defensive squad wasn’t quite as elite as usual, they were ultra-competitive on the mound with a strong rotation and lock down bullpen.  With plenty of talent returning for Pollard and his staff in ’27, they should be a force on a national level once again.  Impact Returners:    Senior Antonio Perrotta (.266/.459/.431, 5 HR, 6 2B, 24 RBI) experienced...

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 70

That Off-Season Program Wasn't Built for Your Son. It Was Built for Nobody. The Harsh Reality of Skill Development · Part 2 of 5 Somewhere right now, a pitcher is starting a twelve-week off-season program. It came from his travel team. Or a trainer. Or a big leaguer's Instagram. It has phases and a logo, and every kid in the building got the same one. Here is the harsh reality. That program was written before anybody looked at your son. It doesn't know he exists. It was built for the average pitcher... and the average pitcher does not exist. A Template Fixes Somebody's Problem. Maybe Not His. Every pitcher who is stuck is stuck for a reason. We call that reason his constraint... the thing that is actually limiting him right now. For one kid it is strength. For the next it is mobility. For the next it is a mechanical inefficiency, or an arm that isn't recovering, or a body that...

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 69

Your Son's April Arm Injury is Being Scheduled Right Now   The Harsh Reality of Skill Development - Part 1 of 5 Let me start this series with something most people in baseball won't say out loud. In my experience, a great many of the arm problems we will see next April are being set up right now... in October, November and December. Not necessarily because a young pitcher is throwing too much. Often it's because of what happens when he stops. Here is the pattern. I have watched it for more than thirty years. The fall season ends. The arm is tired, so the family does what seems like the responsible thing.  They shut it down. No throwing. For a lot of kids, no anything. Weeks go by. The holidays come and go. Then somebody looks at a calendar in January and realizes tryouts are three weeks away. Suddenly, an arm that has done nothing since October is asked to go from zero to game...

Complete Class of 2027 Rankings With the end of the summer and fall seasons behind us, it was time for a quick refresh of the 2027 class rankings. Below you'll be able to read about some of the biggest risers up the board, led by North Carolina outfielder John Hucko who jumped more than 110 spots to now sit at No. 20 overall.  John Hucko, OF, Charlotte, N.C. Previous Rank: 132 | Current Rank: 20 Hucko makes a huge leap into the top-20 players in the class after a dominating showing in Jupiter. It’s as good of a left-handed swing as you’ll come across with pretty easy impact to all parts. He’s a supreme athlete with all the tools to play center long term and is a present plus runner. Hucko is a name that cemented his prospect status in Jupiter and will be a name to follow for next year’s MLB Draft. Elyjah Mason, SS, Lake Forest, Calif. Previous Rank: 71 |...
