Harry Chubb Jones Jr., RHP/SS, Class of 2027
Commitment: Alabama

Jones recently flipped his commitment from Clemson to Alabama, landing Rob Vaughn and staff a high-end two-way talent in the ’27 class. The Georgia native possesses tremendous upside on the mound, working from a long and lean right-handed frame that displays projection and athleticism. Jones starts over the face before working to the belt and into a higher pronounced leg lift. He fires down the mound via a standard-length arm action and high three-quarters slot. Chubb’s fastball/slider combination and feel for the zone, with the heater showcasing run/ride traits and power into the high-90s. His slider displays two-plane tilt with late horizontal bite, while also mixing in a change-up. Jones is regarded as an advanced strike thrower and translates his high-end athleticism to the batter’s box with plus speed. He starts upright and even at the base with high hands, working to a quick barrel by way of a simple and direct leg load.




Aidan Kent, RHP, Class of 2027
Commitment: Georgia

California right-hander Aidan Kent announced his intentions on Georgia, providing Athens with a high-quality arm from the West Coast. Kent works from a big and lengthy frame with obvious projection, operating exclusively from the stretch. He starts above the belt, working into a medium pronounced leg lift before firing down the mound via a longer reach back arm action and high three-quarters slot. His fastball operates in the low-90s, jumping out of the hand with big run/ride traits. Kent works with a steady diet of heaters, mixing in a developing breaking ball. Wes Johnson and staff landed an intriguing right-hander with traits to build on, continuing the trend of high-level talent heading to the Southeast no matter their roots. 


Wyatt Plyler, OF, Class of 2027
Commitment: Wake Forest

Washington state outfielder Wyatt Plyler brings an exciting blend of tools to Winston-Salem, announcing his commitment to Wake Forest. Plyler displays quick-twitch athleticism in a bigger right-handed frame with noticeable strength present. In the box, he starts with a slightly wide base and low hands, utilizing a deeper inward hovering leg lift pre-launch. Plyler fires through a quick barrel at good angles, peppering all fields with hard hits that near 100. Defensively, his quickness and athleticism translate, while producing strong throws up to 96. Plyler’s loud blend of athleticism and tools make him a name to know in the 2027 class. 


Malcolm Blaqman, SS, Class of 2027
Commitment: Rutgers

The Scarlet Knights experienced a massive recruiting win in landing Malcolm Blaqman out of Maryland, an athletic middle-infielder with continued offensive performance on the circuit. Blaqman operates from a medium frame that features lower half strength, moving well laterally and posting sixty times as low as 6.65, while displaying a soft glove on the dirt. In the box, he starts with a wide base and active high hands, utilizing a quick inward toe tap before firing through a speedy and compact barrel. Most of Blaqman’s present impact comes by the line-drive variety, peppering the gaps and allowing for the use of his speed. His frame allows for more projection, leaving his power output to be determined. Blaqman is a no doubt infielder with the quickness and athleticism to prove it, along with an intriguing up arrow offensive profile. 


James Clark, SS, Class of 2026
Commitment: Duke
In terms of high school draft risers, Clark may top the list and recently announced his commitment to Duke after previously being pledged to Princeton. Clark works from a medium frame that features length and lower half strength, starting even and upright with high hands in the box. He works to the barrel via a direct outward step leg load, firing through a quick and compact barrel at strong angles. Clark displays present feel to hit to go along with a decent amount of impact, a hit/power blend that may earn him a top round draft selection. His speed plays on both sides of the ball, especially defensively where he profiles as a no-doubt middle infielder that has recorded throws up to 92. Clark ranges well to either direction via a quick lower-half, utilizing soft hands and a strong internal clock. 


Miles Clark, OF, Class of 2026
Commitment: Duke

Miles, like his brother James, also recently announced his commitment to the Blue Devils, providing an immediate boost to Duke’s 2026 class. Miles boasts athleticism of his own, working from a medium right-handed frame with sixty times as low as 6.72. Defensively, Clark attacks well in the outfield before unleashing strong throws that have reached 96. At the plate, Clark starts upright and even at the base, keeping the hands behind his ear. He works into a direct leg load before firing through a quick barrel that showcases pull side impact. Clark brings an exciting all-around blend to his game with tools both on defense and at the dish. 


Bubba Day, RHP, Class of 2027
Commitment: Florida State

Nebraska native and right-hander Bubba Day announced his intentions to attend Florida State. The Seminoles land a top arm in the 2027 recruiting class, adding to a highly talented group mainly from Florida. Day slots in as their highest rated pitcher per our rankings, utilizing a lean and lengthy frame that possesses obvious projection. The Omaha product has a bit of funk to his operation, starting over the face before working into a high and compact leg load, dropping the arm to create a low three-quarters slot. Day’s fastball operates in the low-90s, featuring jump from the hand and a run/ride profile. He commands the heater well and mixes in a sharp two-plane breaking ball with late bite.

College Top 25: April 13
Vincent Cervino
Article Image
In a season where remaining in the Top 25 has become a war of attrition, the No. 1 UCLA Bruins (33-2) are making the game look much easier than it is in all reality.  Winners of 27-games in a row, this club continues to win games by any means necessary as they continue their historic run.  Beyond the incredible win streak, the Bruins have started off Big Ten play (18-0) by sweeping their first six conference weekend.  Adding to their resume, in Game 1 of their series at Rutgers, they won a 14-inning thriller by a score of 4-1where their pitching staff registered an eye-popping 30-strikeouts while only surrendering 1 walk and 4 hits throughout.  In most any other season, the No. 2 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (30-5) would be sitting atop the poll as they are putting together a historic season of their own.  They swept Florida State (24-11) who was previously ranked...

PG Draft: Favorite Position Group

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
Every draft class has its strengths. Some years its a loaded group of prep infielders, some years its a deep collection of college arms. In this year’s class, certain position groups stand out above the rest to us. This week, the draft team dives into their favorite position groups. Groups that we believe are loaded with depth, upside, and big league potential. College Infielders It’s hard not to get excited about the crop of college infielders in this year’s class because of who is at the top. Roch Cholowsky alone makes the group exciting. He’s got gold glove potential at the next level and an offensive profile that should make him one of the Top 15 to 20 prospects in all of baseball the second he gets drafted. Justin Lebron is another player with as much upside in the class. He is a premium athlete that can really pick it at short and has big upside with the...

Wolforth Throwing Mentorship: Article 64

Ron Wolforth
Article Image
What Do Barry Zito, Justin Verlander, Trevor Bauer, and Dallas Keuchel All Have in Common? By Ron Wolforth | Texas Baseball Ranch® | PG Arm Care Take a second and think about the question posed in the title before you read on. Four Cy Young Award winners. Four of the most decorated pitchers of their generation. What's the common thread? The first answer is obvious… they all won the most prestigious individual award in pitching. Most of you probably got there immediately. The second answer is less obvious… they all trained at the Texas Baseball Ranch® at some point in their development. Interesting, maybe, but not the point of this article. The third answer is the one I really want you to sit with, because it has direct relevance to your career right now: they all move completely differently. And they all attack hitters completely differently. Don't rush past that....

You like 6-foot-9 lefties up to 100 mph? 2026 Brody Bumila (MA) was electric in season opener, super easy upper-90s, multiple 100s. Easy operation w/ simple delivery despite size. Punched out 9 over 3, double digit whiffs. @PG_Draft pic.twitter.com/BChMhKIIhO — Perfect Game New England (@PG_NewEngland) April 2, 2026 Brody Bumila, LHP, Bishop Feehan (MA), Class of 2026 He's 6-foot-9, 18 years old, left-handed and was up to 100 mph (upwards of 3 times on some guns) in his first start of the year in low-30 degree temperatures.

Coming off a state-championship run in basketball, Texas signee Brody Bumila made his first start of the spring on April 2nd and didn't disappoint in front of at least 40 scouts packed tightly together behind the backstop.  Knowing it was going to be a quicker look given...

‘30 UTL Chase Jelks (GA) lifts this one deep into the gap & rolls around the bags for a triple. Loose LH swing w/ feel to lift. #DontBootTheLoot @PG_Georgia pic.twitter.com/leF4GMTawJ — Perfect Game Youth (@PGYouthBB) April 4, 2026 Chase Jelks (2030, Atlanta, Ga.) put together a great weekend for The Dream 14u Black in their run to a championship game appearance, hitting .444 with two triples and a double along with three RBI.

McLennan jumps up to number 3 with a big series sweep over rival Texas powerhouse, Weatherford.

A couple of debut appearances down the board with Harford, CCF, and Linn Benton all earning their spot on our top 25 for the first time in the first week of April.

DII/DIII/NAIA Rankings Update: April 8

Nick Herfordt
Article Image
We are past the midpoint of the college baseball season and the stakes are rising by the week. Conference races are tightening, schedules are getting harder, and the résumés that will matter in the selection room are being written right now — one series at a time. This week's most significant development came in Division II, where North Greenville swept Young Harris in three consecutive one-run games to claim the top spot for the first time this season, knocking Tampa from a perch they've held most of the year. It's a genuine changing of the guard at the top, and it's exactly the kind of shakeup that makes this stretch of the season worth paying close attention to. Across all three divisions the picture is coming into focus. In Division I NAIA, Georgia Gwinnett remains the standard while Taylor and Cumberlands continue to make their cases from behind. In Division III,...
