Logan Britt, OF, Colleyville Heritage HS (Texas)
The move to the leadoff spot has been a welcome change for Logan Britt the 6-foot-5, 210-pound center fielder for Colleyville Heritage High School (Texas). The 2018 Perfect Game All American Classic participant put on quite a display on Tuesday night, showcasing all of the tools that make him such an intriguing prospect. Britt led off the game with a first-pitch double to deep left-center field, he followed it up with an infield single, another double off the top of the wall in center field and hit a two-strike rocket up the middle in his final at bat of the night. Britt added in a pair of runs scored and a couple of stolen bases on the night as well.

If that were not enough, He showed tremendous range in the outfield to both gaps and showed his mid-90s arm strength from the outfield with a strike to the plate to prevent a runner from even trying to score from second on a base hit. Seeing the full scope of Britt’s tools in one night is a simple reminder of how truly explosive he can be. There is room for further refinement, but the combination of size, strength and speed can compare with any prospect in the country. He can be simply explosive at times with a high level of body control. His future power potential will be harnessed with improved barrel to ball skills at the plate, something that will improve with more at-bats, either collegiately or professionally.


Bobby Witt Jr., SS, Colleyville Heritage HS (Texas)
What is left for Bobby Witt Jr. to do at the high school level? The No. 1-ranked player in the country would probably find something that he is working on to improve because he takes nothing for granted. From his meticulous attention to detail in his pre-game warmups, fielding drills, and throwing routine, it is evident that he is always looking for a way to improve his skill set. Improving the physical side will not be easy because Witt possesses a low-90s arm from shortstop, he runs the 60 in the 6.4-second range and routinely has posted exit velocities over 100 mph and those areas are not simply made better.

Witt displayed a mature approach at the plate and a feel for barreling the baseball consistently. With four well hit balls on the night, Witt collected a triple in his second at-bat and a two-run home run in his final at-bat. With power to all parts of the park and the in-game ability to allow that power to play is not something that Witt is just now showing. After the game was settled, Witt had posted an astounding 30 extra-base hits on the season, in only 89 at-bats. If the saying some guys were born to hit is true, then he fits that description well.

Defensively, Witt plays with great feel for the speed of the game. He has a great inner clock to know when to speed things up and when to slow them down. Showing range and quickness in all directions, he made a great play on the run, charging a chopper and firing a dart from the side with surgeon-like precision to end an inning. However, seeing the effort he puts into being in the right place at the right time is not common among his high school peers, and it appears that it is something that he takes pride in doing. Witt’s physical skills will have him taken extremely early in the draft this June, but the overall package far outweighs what he brings to the field in just a physical sense.

Evan Fitterer, RHP, Aliso Niguel HS (Calif.)
Fitterer fits the perfect mold of a prep righthander: he's lean and athletic with tons of room to fill out with a lightning quick arm. The UCLA signee stays over the rubber with the back side and really drives off his lower half. Fitterer slides in to the first base side of the rubber with a slight stride towards right hand hitter. The fastball worked up to 94 mph and sat mostly in the 90-92 mph range with consistent cutting action. It looks like he throws two breaking balls with the slider showing some length to it with slurvy shape at 80-82 mph while the curveball has some overlap in velocity and comes in just a tick slower on lower end at 79-81 mph with more downer action. He flashed a changeup to lefthanded hitter at 82 mph with downer action that he could throw more. Fitterer allowed just one walk and nine strikeouts in complete game effort, as he garnered little hard contact and a lot of ground balls.




Michael Davinni, IF, Aliso Niguel HS (Calif.)
Davinni has a strong and muscular frame, especially in lower half. He has a presence in the box and takes some big boy hacks at the baseball. Showing a pretty good approach, he is willing to take a walk and looks for balls to drive. There is some swing and miss, but that's not atypical given his power profile. Davinni is more of a three true outcomes guy in this look with a walk, home run and a strikeout against Trabuco Hills. 




Chris Grothues, LHP, Servite HS (Calif.)
Grothues is a thin lefty with a low slot and side-arm action that gave No. 1-ranked Orange Lutheran hitters fits, especially the lefthanded hitters. The fastball worked mostly 79-82 mph that he kept on the black and he featured a mid- to upper-60s frisbee slider that buckled lefty hitters as the pitch often started at their hip or even behind them. Grothues offered more than just funk and deception showing great poise and executing his pitches and he pitched out of multiple jams. He threw seven shutout innings against one of the top teams in the country.




Evan Adolphus, RHP, Orange Lutheran HS (Calif.)
Adolphus is a big, physical righty and came out of the 'pen and got the win for Orange Lutheran in an extra inning victory against Servite. He shows excellent feel for a changeup at 84-85 mph that he pitched off of early in his 2 2/3 innings of work as the pitch showing very good downward action and fade. The fastball worked at 88-91 mph, touching 92 mph, showing more control for the pitch than command. He mixed in a slider at 75-78 mph with the best offerings coming at higher velocities. Adolphus is a Fullerton commit.




Johnathan Guzman, RHP, Orange Lutheran HS (Calif.)
A SDSU commit, Guzman has a rhythmic delivery with high leg kick and direct stride to the plate. The arm works well with a deep arm circle in back. The fastball worked at 87-89 mph touching 90 that he worked around the zone well. The breaking ball came at 79 mph, firmer and tighter than most of the other offerings at 75-77 mph and slurvier, as it feels like the pitch will evolve into a true slider in time. His change gets good downward action at 74-75 mph.

Cam Wagoner, RHP, Tecumseh HS (Mich.)
Long viewed in the Midwest region as an intriguing projection arm, Eastern Michigan signee Cameron Wagoner has generated a bit of draft buzz this spring. A long, lean, highly-projectable righthander, Wagoner combines an interesting mix of components on the mound that give him pretty quality upside.

His size certainly works in his favor, as he has long limbs and plenty of room to continue filling out physically both through his torso and his lower half. There’s a fair bit of operational concern right now, given that Wagoner’s delivery is very raw and the arm action very long and offline, but the arm speed stands out and scouts are pretty much in unison in the belief that he has a chance to throw pretty hard one day. He has pretty substantial effort to the delivery through release, landing hard and closed off, and that extra efforty rotation to get his arm through does inhibit the command profile.

Wagoner's fastball worked in the 88-91 mph range for the majority of the start, flashing solid average life to the arm side at times. He generates good angle to the plate, especially to the glove side, and while the fastball command was loose he did do a good job of throwing strikes. He was overpowering with the pitch at times and was able to work it up and down to good effect. His curveball has taken strides forward, flashing solid average at times with good downer shape and some bite. The consistency of the pitch came and went somewhat, but he’s definitely improved both the quality and the consistency of his spin profile. He also flashed a changeup a few times that is a distant third pitch at this time.

Wagoner has upside and has the size, arm speed, athleticism and projection that scouts like when evaluating pitchers. He’s a solid day three prospect for the MLB Draft right now, though it seems likely that he’ll end up at Eastern Michigan, where he could be one of the top freshmen prospects in the MAC next season.

Pacific Northwest All Region & Top Tools
David Rawnsley

NORTHWEST REGION (WA, OR, ID, WY, AK, MT, HI)    The biggest change in the Northwest Region for 2026 is the addition of Hawaii, which has always been overlooked due to being lumped with California in the former Pacific Region.  This also coincides with an increased Perfect Game presence in the islands in the form of additional events and scouting.  And Hawaii certainly contributed in it’s first year, placing four players on the All-Region team, including slugging 2026 outfielder Judah Ota. The powerhouse Puyallup HS team is the only Northwest Region team to be represented in the PG Pre-Season Top 50 National HS Rankings, beginning the year ranked 26th.  C – Teagan Scott (Sr., South Salem HS, Ore.)

Then vs. Now: '26 Class Look Back

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
One constant across our scouting staff is the volume of in-person looks we get at prospects during their high school years. With assignments at national tournaments and showcases throughout the calendar, we’ve built a deep library of reports and video on many of today’s top college prospects dating back to their prep days. This week, we took a step back to revisit what those players looked like as high school prospects. Which tools stood out? What was missing from the profile at the time? And what, if anything, did we overlook that ultimately helped shape the player they’ve become? Below, we break down 10 players in a “Then and Now” reflection. Justin Lebron (23 FL) finishes off the tournament getting in on the hit parade with a single to the pullside. #PGShowdown #Bama commit pic.twitter.com/C4Irym2ZTR — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) March 4, 2023...

Grady Emerson (‘26 TX) laces this ball to right for a walk off single. Clean lefty stroke. Looks the part both sides of the ball. Checks all the boxes. Will be scouted heavily this Spring. #PGHS #HookEm commit. #PGDraft pic.twitter.com/wXvdHdgqME — Perfect Game Texas (@Texas_PG) February 6, 2026 Grady Emerson (2026, Argyle, Texas) had a strong showing throughout the opening week of high school baseball out here in Texas. Works good at-bats and is always a tough out in general. Makes all the plays at short and just has the look of a future big leaguer. He does all the little things right. Bat to ball will play at a high level and there is still a lot more power to project on here. There is a reason why Emerson is one of, if not the most highly coveted high school prospect in the 2026 class and it’s easy to see why. Currently committed to Texas, but has the potential to...

DIII Rankings: February 18

Nick Herfordt

Every spring, Division III baseball begins as a wide-open map. Cold mornings turn into long bus rides, non-conference gauntlets test resolve, and by the time the dust settles, only a few teams are still standing with a clear line to the NCAA Division III baseball tournament. The 2026 Perfect Game Division III Baseball Rankings capture that moment before the stretch run, highlighting the programs that have separated themselves through depth, durability, and an ability to win in a variety of ways. These eight teams are not simply piling up wins; they are shaping identities built to survive the grind and thrive when the margins narrow.  The destination is familiar, even if the journey never is. Once again, the final chapter will be written at Classic Park, where timing, composure, and roster balance matter as much as raw talent. The teams ranked here enter 2026 with more than ambition....

Just a couple of weeks into the 2026 season, several teams have already hit the ground running, namely Walters State, Florida Southwestern, Chipola, Johnson County, Florence-Darlington, and Pearl River. A little further down the rankings, we’ve seen some significant movement. The College of Southern Nevada surged up several spots after a strong 12-2 start, while Gaston has turned heads with an unblemished 14-0 record. We also welcome a few new additions in the 20s: Fresno City and Panola. Neither program debuted inside our top 50, but both have certainly earned their place in this week’s rankings. We’re looking forward to another exciting week of early spring baseball, as teams across the country continue to find their rhythm before conference play begins. Rk.

Ohio Valley All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley

OHIO VALLEY REGION (IL, IN, KY, MI, OH) The Ohio Valley Region has a healthy amount of top-level talent, as it features five Perfect Game All-Americans in shortstop Ethan Bass, third baseman TJ McQuillan, two-way stand out Matt Ponatoski and right-handed pitchers Shawn Sullivan and Grayson Willoughby.  The 2027 class looks very strong as well, especially in Illinois. A couple of things are missing from the Ohio Valley All-Region team, though.  The first is the two best outfielders in the region, as 2027 Illinois outfielder Sebastian Wilson is attending IMG Academy in Florida and fellow 2027 outfielder Noah Goettke from Ohio is attending P27 Academy in South Carolina.  Also missing are any players from Michigan, which enjoyed a dominant run of top prospects in recent years largely behind the Lake Orchard St. Mary’s HS program.  2027 catcher Broder Katke (Brother...
