Prospect 1-50
Prospects 51-100
Prospects 151-200
Prospects 201-250


101. TAYLOR WILLIAMS, rhp, Kent State University
Williams endured a difficult freshman season in 2011 at Washington State, going 0-1, 12.19, while allowing 34 base runners (25 H/9 BB) in 10 innings, and striking out just four. But the 5-foot-11, 185-pound right-hander has rebounded strongly from his early adversity, leading to his improbable emergence as an early-round candidate in this year’s draft. His turnaround began two summers ago playing for Keene in the New England Collegiate League, where he experienced dramatic improvement in his raw stuff and command while transitioning from a reliever to the ace of the SwampBats staff. Williams led the NECBL in wins, while going 6-1, 2.18 overall, and also sparked Keene to a league title. Perhaps of greater significance, his career path took an interesting turn that summer as his Keene teammates included four players from Kent State, including current Golden Flashes ace Tyler Skulina, who openly encouraged Williams to transfer to Kent State after it became known that he was leaving WSU. Rather than sit out a year while transferring from one Division I school to another, Williams spent the 2012 season playing at Oregon’s Mt. Hood Community College, where his fast arm and velocity at 90-94 mph quickly came to the attention of Northwest scouts. His dual role as an everyday position player took a toll on him physically, which impacted the ability for him to sustain his velocity, and he went undrafted. That paved the way for Williams to move on to Kent State as a junior, and he has been dominant this spring with a heavy, sinking fastball at 93-96, and an equally impressive slider. With his short, compact frame, two dominant pitches and a nasty, combative approach on the mound, some scouts have always been quick to cast Williams in a short, end-of-game role. But they have been less inclined to do this spring as he has shown a decent curve and changeup to complement his overpowering fastball/slider combination, and dominated as Kent State’s Saturday starter, posting a 9-1, 2.14 record with a team-high 91 strikeouts and only 16 walks in 93 innings.

102. CHANDLER EDEN, rhp, Yuba City HS (Calif.)
After becoming a primary pitcher during his junior season at Yuba City HS, Eden has seen significant strides and has gone from an unknown product to having worked his way into a potential signable round draft prospect. He topped out at 92 mph at the 2012 Area Code games, and generally pitches in the low-90s, though there are reports that he's topped out a bit higher than that this spring. He has a fast arm and a projectable frame, and if he honors his commitment to Oregon State he could be a player to watch for the 2016 draft. At this point in his career he's a quality projection arm, albeit one with a limited prospect resume, that should draw some interest this June if he indicates an interest in signing.

103. VICTOR CARATINI, c/3b, Miami-Dade JC (Fr.)
Caratini’s career was going nowhere fast a year ago as a freshman at Southern University, when he was declared ineligible on the eve of the 2012 season. It came too late for the Puerto Rican product to transfer elsewhere and he still didn’t have a college in the works for the current campaign until he was re-routed to Miami-Dade just prior to classes enrolling last fall. It’s been all positive since for the switch-hitting Caratini, who leads the Sharks in homers and RBI, and has been instrumental in his team’s rise to No. 1 in Perfect Game’s ranking of the nation’s top junior colleges. Caratini’s ability to square up balls from both sides with a controlled, aggressive approach has set him apart as the best all-around hitting prospect in the Florida juco ranks, and his surge as a prospect this spring has occurred even he as he spent most of the 2013 season playing largely out of position at third base. Miami-Dade has the luxury of a roster with four catchers who could conceivably be drafted in June, and Caratini’s flexibility in the field made him a logical candidate to move from behind the plate and fill in elsewhere. He excelled defensively at third with his range and superior arm strength, but scouts still view Caratini mostly as a catcher on the strength of his sound defensive skills and enthusiastic style of play, though his bat remains the strength of his game.

104. TREY MICHALCZEWSKI, ss/3b, Jenks HS (Okla.)
Michalczewski has been the fast rising prep player in the state this year and there is speculation that he could even be drafted ahead of Drew Ward, a thought that wasn’t on the table a few months ago. Last summer the 6-foot-3, 195-pound Michaleczewski played at many of the same events with then fellow Oklahoma high schooler Ryder Jones (now living in North Carolina), and likely suffered by comparison. Although similar athletes with the same size and defensive profile, Jones had two distinct advantages in his then better present physical strength and a much stronger throwing arm. Michalczewski has made up the gap in one of those areas, as he has gained significant strength over the past 6-8 months and gained a corresponding amount of bat speed from both sides of the plate. His smooth and loose swing has classic extension out front and his hand path to the ball short and direct, making the added strength stand out even more. Michalczewski is a 6.78 runner even at his size and has easy athletic actions at shortstop. He likely profiles better at third base at the professional level.

105. MYLES SMITH, rhp, Lee University (Tenn.)
Smith was drafted in the 16th round a year ago by the New York Mets out of Miami-Dade Junior College, but decided against turning pro in favor of accepting a scholarship to play at nearby Miami. His decision to bypass an offer from the Mets came into question when he was subsequently declared academically ineligible at Miami, and was left only with offers from NAIA schools to ponder. But Smith has turned his adversity into a golden opportunity to exponentially improve his worth for the 2013 draft. As a junior at Tennessee’s Lee University, an NAIA power, he has improved the velocity on his fastball from a standard 90-93 mph in 2012, to a more eye-popping 93-97. His changeup has continued to be a dominant off-speed pitch, while the Lee coaching staff committed him to throwing his slider more frequently to give him a breaking ball and enhance his chances of remaining a starter at the pro level, and Smith has also made significant strides with that pitch. With a solid three-pitch mix, he has dominated his NAIA competition, posting a 10-3, 1.51 record in 13 starts as Lee embarked on post-season play, along with 27 walks and 84 strikeouts in 71 innings. In addition to his superior velocity, the 6-foot-1, 175-pound Smith stands out among this year’s crop of college arms because of his superior athleticism. He was the best all-around talent to come out of the Michigan high school ranks in 2010, but made little headway as a freshman at Missouri while dividing his time between pitching and playing shortstop. He elected to transfer to Miami-Dade a year later with the initial intention of playing both ways, but soon decided to concentrate on pitching only and his career soon took off—even as he hit an apparent speed bump last summer, before quickly resurrecting his career this spring.

WC Ghost Claims Arizona All-State Title

Emily Hicks
Article Image
In a championship game that featured strong pitching and sharp defense from both sides, West Coast Ghost AZ 16U pulled away late to defeat Overfly 2028, 5-3, and claim the Arizona All-State Games title. “We had discipline at the plate, on the mound, out in the field; everyone just did their thing. It was good,” said Cash Carmichael The two teams traded runs throughout the 1st and 2nd innings, making it 3-2. Followed by a single run scored at the top of the 4th by Overfly 2028, it remained tied 3-3 for most of the game. Both defenses made key plays to limit scoring opportunities, turning potential rallies into outs and keeping the pressure high in every inning. With the game deadlocked heading into the bottom of the sixth, West Coast Ghost AZ finally broke through. Bottom of the 6th, J. Haizen Reidhead recorded a single, Oren Tucker walked, and Josiah Shim was hit by pitch....

Coastal Region Scout Notes

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
Wyatt Smitherman (2028, Durham NC) had a solid day at the plate for USA Prime Triangle 16u Stars in their matchup against the Charlotte Colts. The 5-foot-11, 160-pound shortstop has a tall athletic frame. The left handed batter displayed a mature approach at the plate. Attacks fastballs and drives them with authority. He has quick hands and gets the barrel through the zone. Uses his lower half to his advantage creating enough torque to generate his power he shown. Smitherman finished the day going 1-for-3 with a home run and 4 RBI. Zachary Days (2028, Charlotte NC) had a impressive day at the plate for the Charlotte Colts against USA Prime Coastal. The 6-foot-3, 170 pound center fielder has a tall athletic frame. Days bats from the left side with a short but powerful swing. Very disciplined during his AB’s and applies pressure on the defense. He shifts his weight to his lower half...

Weather Can't Delay Top Tier Victory

Alyssa Golden
Article Image
A seven-run first inning gave Top Tier Roos American Red 2027 all the momentum they needed Sunday morning, but the road to a Florida World Series championship was far from straightforward.  After jumping out to an early lead against WBC 17u, Top Tier endured a 3 ½-hour rain delay before returning to finish off a 9-1 victory at Lee Health Sports Complex.  The championship game, which began at 8 a.m. and did not conclude until nearly 1 p.m., ended in the bottom of the fifth inning under Perfect Game’s mercy-rule format. Top Tier’s dominant performance was powered by a complete-game effort from Christian Davis and an offense that erupted for seven runs in the first inning.  Not even hours of uncertainty and lightning delays could keep Top Tier from finishing what they started.  Davis started on the mound for Top Tier and remained the entire five...

PG Super Regionals Dripping Springs, Texas June 6-7, 2026     DRIPPING SPRINGS, TX- The weather was nice, the Longhorns JUST won a national championship, and Perfect Game brought it’s first softball event to Dripping Springs. It was a weekend packed with college coaches, quality softball, and a great softball atmosphere. Over the course of the six-game guarantee event, our scout saw some amazing athletes. Below she highlights some of the athletes who caught her eye.   Destiny Sidiropoulos (2028, Houston, TX) of the Impact Gold HTX 16U was an incredible spark plug at the top of their lineup all weekend. She is a true triple threat who has great speed on the basepaths. She can soft and power slap, drop a sneaky bunt, and hit away with pop. Her barrel control is next level, and she is fun to watch pick apart defenses. On defense, she is versatile and athletic. She gets...

West Coast Summer Breakout Hopefuls

Joey Cohen
Article Image
With summer ball ramping up, the priority follow lists from our scouting staff start to take shape and every year a handful of intriguing names outside the national spotlight begin to separate. Digging deeper into the West region, there’s a group of prospects currently buried outside the Top 200 who carry real breakout and helium potential over the next few months. All 10 players featured here are coming off strong high school seasons and bring traits that evaluators tend to bet on whether it’s projectable/athletic bodies, strong secondary stuff, or flashes of impact tools. They may not be household names just yet, but the ingredients are there for significant jumps by the end of the summer circuit. Don’t be surprised if several of these names are firmly in the mix and climbing up early boards in a hurry before the fall rolls around. Two innings of work here from Jonah...

Steve Fiorindo
Article Image
Nash McCarthy (2030, Camas, WA) was outstanding in his start on day two of the UBC West for NW Baum Bat, working six-innings allowing four-hits, no walks and struck out seven.  Standing at 6-foot, 170-pounds with athleticism and room to add.  Effortless mover down the bump with a low effort, up-tempo operation that produced a fastball that was up to 84.  He showed feel for the secondary offerings mixing in a firm breaking ball at 71-74 with 11-5 shape with depth.  Controlled the zone and the tempo throughout the outing, moving the ball around to all four-quadrants.  Projectable arm speed with advanced feel for the spin and strike zone.  Dylan D'Oyen (2030, Cerritos, CA) got the start for 5 Star 2030 in their opening game of the tournament and impressed over six innings of work.  Athletic mover down the mound with balance and repeats the delivery. ...

UBC South Scout Notes: Days 1-2

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
Quintin Blackwell (2030, Hercules, California) has, literally, been unstoppable this weekend for Premier Banditos Deleon. In six plate appearances, he has a walk and five hits. Doing it all with a double and two triples, while stealing three bags. Plenty of coil on the front side. Hands work through zone and the barrel stays on plane for a long time. High upside bat that makes an already deep Banditos lineup even deeper. Kenson Buth (2027, Trophy Club, Texas) has been an absolute weapon on both ends for Stix 2027 Scout. At the plate, he’s 6-9 with two doubles, a triple, and a home run. Linear approach with a ton of bat speed. Plenty of impact at the bottom of the zone and showing some ability to do serious damage in the middle of the field. On the mound, he went four quality innings, punching out three. The fastball lived 86-90 with carry. Good feel for the slider in the mid 70s....

WWBA East Scout Notes: Days 1-2

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
Sawyer Pettit (‘27 MS) Has shown extremely well to start the summer of 2026. Its a physical left-handed hitting corner profile with big muscle mass. Will pass the eye test off the bus at the next level. The swing is clean with controlled violence and big in-air power that has shown up frequently. Good mover for the size and plays the game hard. Candidate for a big frosh season at LSU-Eunice in 2028. Keviyun McQueen (‘27 MS) Pair of barrels tied together here. Innate feel to hit with fast hands.

13/14u PG Elite Scout Notes: Days 3-5

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
13u & 14u PG Elite Scout Notes: Days 1-2 Tucker Richardson (2030, Mobile, Ala.) has already made a name for himself and he continued to play at the expected high level during his time in Hoover, finishing the tournament with a robust .700 average, collecting at least one base hit in each of his team’s games. Now the No. 10 ranked prospect in the country, Richardson more than once showed the ability to read and react to spin out of the pitcher’s hand, barreling up baseballs for a couple of his hits on the tournament. As much as the bat stands out, the defensive actions in the dirt are even better as he’s arguably the best defender in the class, making the most difficult plays look routing, including one where he charged hard on a slow roller with momentum taking him towards the third base dugout but thanks to the big arm, he was able to make the play look second...
