MLB Draft: Early Season Movers

Tyler Henninger
Isaiah Burrows
Tyler Kotila
MLB Draft Board Updated: Top 300


Aiden Harris, 3B, Pro Development Group (VA) 
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: 51 



Harris went down to Hoover and showed off some good swings, carrying that forward and showing off that feel for the barrel for PDG. He's shown really impressive stuff in the batters' box on the circuit. He's got tons of strength to impact with a really simple and low-effort stroke that yields some of the loudest contact in the class. The Virginia commit has been one of the big bats in the PDG lineup this spring. The power upside here is mountainous with a swing that's quick to launch and produces some seriously loud results. Harris is also up to 92 mph on the fastball. Sub-7.00 60-yard dash runner with twitch and athleticism in the 6-foot-4, 230-pound frame. He's someone to keep an eye on moving forward, that's for sure, currently stationed just outside the Top 50 in the class. 


Kellon Lindsey, SS/OF, Hardee Senior (FL) 
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: NR 

Lindsey has been one of the names that has been getting a ton of buzz this spring. He made a name for himself in 2023, but after playing football in the fall as QB1 for his high school squad, he’s back on the dirt for baseball season and showing off the tools left and right. He’s a 6-foot, 175-pound frame that oozes athleticism and tons of twitch. He’s been able to really show off his tools lately, playing some shortstop and centerfield for the Hardee squad. He may not stick in the middle of the field in the long term, but he’s a burner and has the speed/athleticism to get it done. The Florida commit is a right-handed bat with a pretty simple and fluid stroke. He’s direct with his stride and hands, with some bat speed to beat the ball to the front and do damage. He’s 7-for-15 this spring with a few extra-base hits and 8 bags swiped on the basepaths. He’s walked 8 times and struck out just 3 times. Keep an eye on Lindsey as the spring continues to progress. 



Bryce Rainer, RHP/SS, Harvard Westlake (CA) 
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: 41 

One of the premier two-way talents who’s really shined on the mound this spring is Bryce Rainer. He’s inside the Top-50 on our board, and it looks like he’s got the up-arrow next to him as we look ahead to the next update. Rainer has looked the part on both sides of the ball but pieced together some really nice starts this spring. He’s worked up into the mid-90s on the fastball (up to 96 mph), with a feel for a mid-70s curveball, slider up to 81 mph, and changeup in the 78-81 mph range with good depth. Just a ton to like here, with easy velocity and athleticism on the mound, which also translates into the batters’ box. Rainer has easy bat speed and some juice that’s worked to all fields. He’s launched a couple of balls this spring and has handled the bat well. It’s two-way upside that teams are likely to be in on the traits on the mound, though the Texas commit has also shown some loud swings this spring.  


Gage Jump, LHP, Redshirt Sophomore, LSU 
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: 77 

Jump has started to gain some steam, putting together some impressive starts. He's someone who could move even further up draft boards if he can continue to snowball good starts. The redshirt sophomore is a 6-foot, 197-pound frame who's been mowing down hitters with LSU this spring. The southpaw has four appearances with three starts for the Tigers in 2024. He's logged 13.1 innings pitched with 6 hits, 2 walks, and 21 punchouts while not allowing an earned run this spring. Jump has run it up to 96 mph with good carry. He's got two distinct breaking balls with good shape. He's thrown a ton of strikes this spring and has looked the part. Keep an eye on Jump for the Tigers' pitching staff for the rest of this spring. 

Trey Yesavage, RHP, Junior, East Carolina 
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: 35 

Speaking of dominance on the mound, Trey Yesaveage has been churning out dominant outing after dominant outing. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound frame has plenty to like out on the mound. He’s a physical arm with a longer arm action and tons of whip-through release from the higher three-quarters slot. Yesavage has worked into the upper-90s, getting up to 98 mph. It’s got a good angle and sink to it that’s been problematic for opposing hitters. It’s a full four-pitch mix that he has had success with this year. In his four starts, he’s pitched to a 1.13 ERA and a 0.72 WHIP. He’s thrown 24.0 innings, allowing just 10 hits, walking only 7, and striking out 39 opposing hitters. Premier arm in the class who has really made some noise this spring; keep an eye on the right-hander.  

Matt Scott, RHP, Sophomore, Stanford 
Draft Eligible: 2025 | Draft Board Rank: 11 

When it comes to intriguing arms, look no further than Matt Scott. The right-handed pitcher is in year two with Stanford, looking to continue to make some noise. He’s ranked 11th on our board for the 2025 draft class. Scott’s a sophomore arm who has been making noise this spring and is expected to continue to gain some steam. Scott has outlier stuff. He’s up into the low- to mid-90s with absurd ride on his heater, carrying it a ton. He’s got a cutter in the mix as well, helping bridge his entire arsenal. The cutter is in the upper-80s with a shorter shape and firm look. The slider is a sweeper in the mid-70s with depthy and later break to it. Scott’s got a ton to like with his arsenal. He’s made four starts with 22.1 innings pitched under his belt on the season. He’s allowed 12 hits, walked 10, and struck out 37 opposing hitters – managing a 3.63 ERA and holding opponents to a .156 average on the season. He may not be a name to watch for this draft class, but keep an eye on Scott with the Stanford pitching staff. 

-Tyler Kotila

Carson Benge, Sophomore, OF/RHP, Oklahoma State
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: 20

Benge generated a fair share of buzz last year and has continued the hype so far this year. A loose operation in the box shows extremely fast hand speed with outstanding feel for the barrel present. Benge is currently posting a .368/.470/.632 slash line with 11 extra-base hits and five stolen bases. Athleticism and a plus arm profile well in right field, rounding out a loud profile with first round upside. 

Dakota Jordan, Sophomore, OF, Mississippi State
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: 31

Jordan has followed up a strong freshman year with a monster sophomore campaign, posting a .419/.550/.968 slash line with nine home runs and 16 total extra-base hits up to this point. The slugger possesses some of the best bat speed in the country and 70-grade raw power that plays regularly during in-game action. There is massive upside on the offensive side of the ball that will warrant a significant boost next update. 

Jacob Walsh, Junior, 1B, Oregon 
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: N/A

Walsh has been a mainstay in the Oregon lineup over the past few years, but is currently in the midst of his best year yet. The slugging first baseman features massive raw power that shows up regularly in-game. Walsh has already hit six home runs this year, while showing significant development to the hit tool. His current .351 average is over .100 points higher than last year. Should he continue to show improvement in his approach and hit tool, he could garner a fair bit of attention this summer. 

Ryan Campos, Junior, C, Arizona State
Draft Eligible: 2024 | Draft Board Rank: 191

Campos was off to a slower start by his standards, but the backstop seems to be returning to his usual productive form. Campos went yard three times against Oregon and currently sits at six home runs on the year while posting a career best .627 SLG. A well-rounded profile on both sides of the ball should allow Campos to be one of the first few collegiate catchers off the board. 

Trent Caraway, Freshman, 3B, Oregon State 
Draft Eligible: 2025 | Draft Board Rank: 10

Caraway generated plenty of attention as a prep, but opted to head to school instead. The slugging third baseman has immediately made an impact as a freshman, posting a 1.072 OPS through his first 12 games. It is an above-average hit tool with advanced power that should only continue to develop as he starts to create loft more consistently. Caraway will be draft eligible next year as a sophomore and looks to be a potential early day one pick. 

-Tyler Henninger

Jac Caglianone, 1B/LHP, Florida
Draft Eligible: 2024 Draft Board Rank: 9

Caglianone’s two-way ability stood out this past week and particularly on the hill. He tossed an impressive six-inning shutout with nine punchouts on March 10. His changeup really opened eyes as a go-to offering and rounds out a power mix that reaches upwards of 97-99 mph. The power more than speaks for itself at this point, but the pitchability this past week was downright impressive for what looks to be an early Day 1 pick. 

Will Taylor, OF, Clemson
Draft Eligible: 2024 Draft Board Rank: 44

Speaking of power, how about the recent display from Taylor at the plate? He hit a 416 foot homer to left-center that came off the bat at 96 mph. His plate discipline and offensive polish has really improved this season, combined with the plus athlete and defensive tools across the board. If this power shows up often combined with his ability to roam any of the three outfield spots, expect some big things come July. 

James Tibbs III OF/1B, Florida State
Draft Eligible: 2024 Draft Board Rank: 86

Tibbs III continues to produce once again. He launched a no-doubt three-run shot in a big spot against Florida and is slashing .387/.480/.903 with eight pumps so far. It’s one of the higher end hit/power floors in this entire class and it’s been on display since his freshman year. There’s a ton to like in the bat from the left side, and he has an upward arrow next to his name.

Loads of traits & strikes. #WWBA @PG_Uncommitted @PG_DeepSouth pic.twitter.com/DEjFqRcsIY — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) July 6, 2025 Tucker Rice, RHP, Class of 2027 Commitment: Alabama Alabama has continued to stay red hot in the recruiting trail ever since August 1st rolled around on the calendar and have continued to stack major pieces in their ’27 class. They dip into Mississippi to land one of the premier arms and one that’s stood out on the circuit for quite some time. It’s a fast arm and the athleticism certainly shines working down the slope. The velocity has continued to tick up over the last calendar year and reached into the low-90s towards the end of the summer. He’s confident in his changeup and the breaking ball is...

There’s a lot of talent throughout this 2026 class, filled with the big-name stars, to talent that spreads across the nation. It’s been a lot of fun seeing these prospects grow and develop over the years, from the days of watching some of these guys at the 13/14u days at events on the circuit, to now where they are all graduating seniors in 2026. There’s been new faces who have popped along the way over the years, even in 2026, where some players who were relatively undiscovered, have come out and made a name for themselves with a statement performance. Between the familiar and the new, there’s a lot of names on this list that are going to be quite regularly talked about on the circuit, and for good reason.  Whether it’s PG All-Americans or not, there’s a lot of names with superstar potential at the next level.

Finest in the Field: Class of 2026 | Class of 2027 | Class of 2028 These guys might just be entering high school, but they've certainly already made a name for themselves on the national circuit, especially with their abilities on the defensive side of things.  C: Xavier Rodriguez (Logansville, GA) Rodriguez is a polished defender with real arm strength behind the dish, while showcasing the ability to impact the baseball with authority to all fields evident by thirty of his sixty-five hits going for extra-bases including seven bombs. He handles high-level pitching extremely well, commands his staff and his offensive prowess makes him a true two-way asset. 1B: Cooper Knight (Buda, TX) Knight is a smooth operator at first base with plenty of range, fluidity and agility in his footwork around the bag. Add-in a rocket for an arm, the ability to change slots and to...

Scout Stories: Part 5

Best Game I Saw: The Dream NTL 18U vs. MBA Scout Team Murphy Jupiter always brings out the best, and we got fireworks from the jump. Turner Marshall gave The Dream an outstanding 4+ innings of work on the mound, holding a lethal MBA team at bay with Chance Dixon, Derrick Carter, and Ellis Appling providing an offensive spark out of the gate for the Georgia based boys. However, it was only a matter of time before the talent on the other side got going, as MBA erased a 3-run deficit in the 5th to take a 4-3 lead led by a Parker Loew HR. The Dream then took command again in the Top of the 6th, before MBA punched right back with a huge 5-run inning in the bottom half capped off by a clutch RBI single from Matthew Kerrigan, ending a wild sequence with tons of notable performances from two very competitive rosters. Best Tournament Performance I Saw: Surely someone has already brought this...

Nebraska Cornhuskers 2025 Highlights: The Cornhuskers were a difficult team to figure in ’25 as they finished with 33 wins, played just .500 (15-15) in the Big Ten but had some big wins at various times during the season and got hot at the right time. They knocked off then #16 Vanderbilt in the second game of the year, beat #5 Oregon State 2-out-of-3 at home in late March and then got hot at Charles Schwab Field in Omaha to win the Big Ten Tournament. They beat Michigan State in a 10-inning thriller before taking care of #4 Oregon, knocking off Penn State and then shutout #13 UCLA to punch their ticket to the Chapel Hill Regional. Head coach Will Bolt has now led his alma mater to three conference titles and three NCAA Regional appearances during his six years in Lincoln. No different than when he was a player, Bolt’s teams play with passion and toughness, this was never more...

Finest in the Field: Class of 2026 | Class of 2027 You like athletes? You like defenders who can impact a game at any given point? Look not further than this class as it's loaded from coast-to-coast with elite defenders all over the diamond.  C: Brogan Witcher, Bakersfield, CA Our scouting staff got several strong looks at Witcher whether that was at the Summer Kickoff, Sophomore National or the Underclass All American Games where he showcased his strong overall skillset and especially his advanced ability behind the plate. His 6-foot-3,180 pound build looks like one that will fill in quite nicely and be that big and physical catcher’s frame. His arm talent is undeniable where he gets it out quick and runs it up to 79 mph on throwdowns to 2nd (1.84 pop). Besides the standout catch/throw ability, we’ve seen him frame/receive strong arms and block it well during...

BURLINGTON, IA - 2025 Perfect Game Softball Toys 4 Tots Fundraiser One Day, December 7, 2025. Kicking off the holiday season, six teams participated in this one day, 3 game guarantee tournament in the 18u Division.

The game was an efficiently played affair with arms dominating on both sides. Graham Schlicht was masterful for Alpha, striking out 12 hitters over 5 dominant innings. PG All-American Julian Cazares came out of the pen blowing smoke, touching 97 mph with the fastball. On the other side, Jake Carbaugh surrendered just one hit and...

Finest in the Field: Class of 2026 Elite defenders from coast to coast certainly seems to be a strength and to think you could make another top-tier team without thinking, speaks to the real depth this group possesses. The infield is a no-doubt strength of the group, but what catcher Dariel Carrion can do behind the plate is like something we haven't seen in a while in the prep ranks with an absolutely bazooka of an arm.  C: Dariel Carrion (San Juan, PR)  It isn’t often you get a catching prospect as athletic and natural as Dariel Carrion, a big reason why he holds the rank of #1 player in PR and #18 nationally. Metrics wise, the 5-foot-10, 210 pound San Juan native is all you can ask for and more, posting a sub 1.80 pop time with an 84 mph arm behind the dish. He has both contact and clear power threat on the offensive end, ending 2025 with a .337 BA and 4 HRs while also...
