2026 Draft Board: Top 300

The 2026 MLB Draft class is shaping up to be one of the better in recent memory and, potentially, the best class in the last decade. It’s led by UCLA superstar shortstop Roch Cholowsky, a true five-tool prospect who’s the early favorite for 1:1. One of the most popular pieces of industry feedback when constructing this list was some variation of “Roch is too low” or “go up on Roch” and he’s the best college prospect since 2019 when Adley Rutschman (Oregon State, Orioles) was the consensus No. 1 prospect. Similarly to 2019, there’s a superstar Texas prep shortstop at No. 2, in 2019 it was Bobby Witt Jr. (Colleyville Heritage, Royals) and this year it’s Grady Emerson. Both Emerson and Alabama’s Justin Lebron would have been solid 1:1 candidates in years where Roch Cholowsky is not eligible and both have All-Star potential. Following the top three is the consensus top arm in the draft: UC Santa Barbara’s Jackson Flora. He’s been outstanding to start and has shown consistency as well as excellent pitch data to solidify that top pitcher status. Florida prep shortstop Jacob Lombard is a toolsed-up shortstop who is among the best power hitters on the prep side. Georgia Tech teammates Drew Burress and Vahn Lackey follow and Lackey is among the biggest risers in this iteration of the board, with some industry sources having Lackey above Burress on their respective pref lists. Rounding out the top ten are two of the safest college bats in the class in Virginia’s AJ Gracia and Mississippi State’s Ace Reese while Mississippi prep outfielder Eric Booth Jr. is among the biggest risers in the first round, solidifying himself as prep bat 3 in the early going. 

College arms have already begun rising and they will likely continue to do so. Currently there are five college arms in the top 30 but history suggests that number will more than that come draft day and the depth of college arms in general is exciting. A theme that came up when constructing the board is just how much Day 1 (rounds 1-3) there is perceived to be. The amount of college arms among that group is particularly high as and the college bats at the top of this draft are thought of as highly as the 2023 Draft. Left-handed pitching dominates the pitching side of the prep class as Gio Rojas (No. 12, Fla.), Carson Bolemon (14, S.C.), and Logan Schmidt (22, Calif.) highlight the southpaws in the top 30. Reclassification has also been a major theme in this draft as four high school prospects on the board have reclassed from last fall to this spring: Will Brick (23, Tenn.), Jared Grindlinger (42, Calif.), Kaiden McCarthy (91, Vt.), Rocco Maniscalco (101, Ala.); Logan Schmidt also reclassified but did so prior to the summer circuit. Lots of factors surround these decisions but the structure of future drafts given the MLB’s CBA status is certainly one of them. 



As always, this current Draft Board is a mix of a number of factors: evaluations of our own scouts with our own eyes, industry feedback and evaluations, advanced stats and under-the-hood metrics, and where we forecast some of these players ending up years down the line as pros. We are also very early in this process, most conferences are either one or two weeks into conference play while on the high school side Midwest and Northeast schools haven’t even gotten started with their seasons yet. Lots will change as the season progresses but Perfect Game’s coverage will not, we have you covered with live looks via our High School Notebooks and College Player Reports to go along with a ton of High School and College related content throughout the spring. Here are the Top 300 prospects for the 2026 MLB Draft below, enjoy!

PG Staff Mock Draft

Welcome to another Perfect Game Mock Draft. This is not your typical mock draft as it features 15 different GMs drafting the first two rounds of the draft. Each member of the mock draft was assigned two teams and as such will be drafting all of the picks in the first two rounds for each responsible team. The actual draft order will be presented below and we will dive into how teams made their selections and how they feel about the players drafted. It is important to note that this is not how we think the draft will play out in almost any capacity. This is simply an exercise 4 months ahead of time with a large portion of the scouting staff and some picks fall under personal favorites, best available, and a multitude of other factors. Chicago White Sox 1:1 Roch Cholowsky, SS, UCLA | 1:41 Jack Radel, RHP, Notre Dame The White Sox don’t overthink here and select Roch Cholowsky, who has...

Lennex Minor (‘28 CA) absolutely destroys this offering to the PS for a 2-run shot. 2-4 on the day w/ 4 driven in. Athletic in the box w/ a quick stroke and strength throughout the frame. Also closed out the game running the FB up to 88 in a St. Bernard win #PGHS @PG_Scouting pic.twitter.com/KF7BsKGcm7 — Perfect Game California (@California_PG) March 29, 2026 Lennex Minor, MIF/P, St. Bernard (2028) Minor had a massive day in my look this past Saturday in a game being played at the University of San Diego.  The sophomore had a pair of hits, one which was a no-doubt homer, and drove in four.  Minor’s athleticism jumps out on the field with twitchy actions both at the dish and in the dirt.  He features a 6-foot, 170-pound frame with room to add and generates from a strong lower half and exceptionally quick hands.  Showing two-way potential, he made an...

Welcome to another week of Perfect Game Small School baseball — and if you're looking for clarity at the top, you've come to the wrong place. Across all three classifications, the No. 1 spot is very much an open question, and nobody is sleeping comfortably right now. In NCAA Division II, Pittsburg State is stumbling at precisely the wrong moment, leaving the door cracked wide open for hungry challengers to come knocking.

And in NCAA Division III, the race for the top ranking is less a competition and more a ten-car pileup of elite programs, none of whom have done enough to pull away — and all of whom have done plenty to deserve it. Three classifications, three vacancies at the top, and a whole lot of...

Starts the load early and controls his body well, the up the middle approach really plays in game. Also worked from off the mound for an inning and picked up a punch out.  Colton Russo (2030, Coral Springs, FL) Showed off the power burning outfielders all weekend. 5 hits including two triples that carried over the CF and RF heads. Has a good understanding about using the lower half in the swing and the bat to ball skills really impressed.  Karson Blakney (2030, St. Augustine, FL) Made his impact in a big way this week, collecting the win in the quarterfinals. In his outing he went 5 shutout innings and struck out 5 while only allowing 2 hits. Worked in the mid 70s with the FB and topped out at 78. Also produced on offense driving in 5 RBI on 4 hits. ...
