As we get under three months until the 2026 MLB Draft, I thought now would be a good time to start to look at the rankings for the Top 100 players in this year’s draft, in consensus form. There are seven different rankings included in this consensus rankings. Some of these lists are longer than just a Top 100, while two are shorter. For the longer lists players ranked from 101 on are not included. For the two lists shorter than Top 100’s, anyone not ranked at the cutoff is just assumed as not getting any points.
The seven lists used are Baseball America, Pipeline, Perfect Game, ESPN/Kiley McDaniel(85 ranked), The Athletic/Keith Law(50 ranked), Overslot/Mock Draft Simulator, as well as my own. The player ranked No. 1 on a list gets 100 points towards the consensus total, while the player ranked #100 receives one point. In total there were 156 players who received at least one point. I will also add that the Pipeline rankings are very much out of date at the moment, meaning not only are some guys too high/low – but also some key players aren’t even included, which will hurt their overall ranking.
Note that these rankings are a composite of all sources, and outside of my own rankings being one part of the seven rankings included, this is not something I have influenced at all. For players who are tied in points for a spot, I am giving the higher ranking to the player who ranks higher on the greater number of lists, with the second tie breaker being awarded for the highest ranking on any list, followed by number of lists a player is included on. I will include some comments below on some of the interesting things included in the composite, and break this down into tiers solely based on how highly rated these players were.
While there are more than enough names ranked to go past the Top 100, I felt doing so would paint an inaccurate picture as two sources don’t even rank to 100 and a third cuts off at 100 with some older rankings. This consensus rankings will continue to update as we approach the draft, and as rankings expand so will this list.
1. Roch Cholowsky, SS, UCLA – 700 points
As if there was any doubt, Roch was a unanimous #1.
2. Grady Emerson, SS, Texas HS – 690
Emerson was one poll away from being a unanimous #2, as Keith Law had him as the #4 prospect.
3. Vahn Lackey, C, Georgia Tech – 676
Lackey ended up third despite being outside the Top 10 on the not updated Pipeline list. Coming in #2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, and 12 was enough to get him into the Top 3.
4. Jackson Flora, RHP, UC Santa Barbara – 668
Flora was initially in the fifth spot, but moved up on Friday when PG updated their rankings. Pipeline ranking him #14 is the only thing keeping his point total a little below the top two guys.
5. Justin Lebron, SS, Alabama – 665
Lebron is sliding a bit with some real struggles in SEC play. Law was the low man on him at #10, but PG had him #9, I had him #7, and ESPN at #5 with Overslot being #4.
6. Jacob Lombard, SS, Florida HS – 648
Lombard was ranked between #5-13 in all seven spots.
7. Drew Burress, OF, Georgia Tech – 640
Burress ranked as low as #13 (BA) and 14 (myself), but was helped by some high rankings too.
8. Chris Hacopian, SS, Texas A&M – 631
Hacopian is ranked anywhere between #6-19 in the seven rankings.
9. Cam Flukey, RHP, Coastal Carolina – 630
Despite missing basically all season, Flukey is ranked inside the Top 10 in four of the seven rankings.
10. AJ Gracia, OF, Virginia – 628
Gracia is a prospect with a bit of variance, but did rank in three Top 10’s.
11. Eric Booth Jr., OF, Mississippi HS – 626
Booth probably would be in the Top 10 if not for the older Pipeline ranking (#28) holding him down, as he made the Top 10 in five of the other six rankings, with a #13 in the only one he wasn’t a Top 10 prospect.
12. Sawyer Strosnider, OF, TCU – 616
Strosnider closes out the first tier of talent in this draft as the final guy above 600 combined points in the rankings.
13. Gio Rojas, LHP, Florida HS – 589
Rojas ends up being the top ranked prep arm in the class by a comfortable margin of nearly 50 ranking points.
14. Liam Peterson, RHP, Florida – 581
Peterson is dropping a bit with his uneven performance this spring, and his #37 in PG’s rankings updated just this past weekend is what has solidified his drop from the first tier.
15. Eric Becker, SS, Virginia – 580
16. Tyler Bell, SS, Kentucky – 579
Becker and Bell have always been in tight competition, and this shows it. They are pretty closely ranked together in all of the rankings, though I will note that despite coming in lower, Bell actually ranks higher in four of the seven spots.
17. Ace Reese, 3B, Mississippi State – 559
Reese is another player who has struggled in SEC play, and it has caused his rankings to drop because of that. ESPN, Law, and myself are three of the four most updated rankings, and those are his three lowest spots – though he did rank #7 in the new PG rankings.
18. Derek Curiel, OF, LSU – 558
Curiel is one of the beneficiaries of Pipeline’s preseason rankings, as that is his highest ranking by nine spots.
19. Carson Bolemon, LHP, South Carolina HS – 554
Bolemon, who most say competes with Rojas for the top prep arm in the class, took a little bit of a hit by coming in at #50 in the ESPN rankings.
20. Logan Schmidt, LHP, California HS – 542
21. Tyler Spangler, SS, California HS – 530
22. Caden Sorrell, OF, Texas A&M – 498
Sorrell ranked as low as #49 on both the ESPN and Overslot rankings.
23. Trent Gridlinger, OF/LHP, California HS – 492
Trent Gridlinger is the first player not to be listed in all seven rankings, as he didn’t reclassify from the 2027 class until after the Pipeline rankings were released. He was in the Top 20 on five lists, which helped get him ranked this high despite the one zero. Once Pipeline includes him in their rankings, he could have a chance to overtake Rojas for the top prep arm in the class.
24. Chris Rembert, 2B, Auburn – 482
25. Cole Carlon, LHP, Arizona State – 478
26. Ryder Helfrick, C, Arkansas – 472
27. Blake Bowen, OF, California HS – 472
Helfrick is the higher ranked player in four of the seven rankings and comes in here despite being penalized a bit by the Law list only having its rankings to 50, and not including him. He was in the Top 30 in five lists.
28. James Clark, SS, California HS – 467
29. Logan Reddeman, RHP, UCLA – 457
30. Cade Townsend, RHP, Ole Miss – 457
This was a tie between two of this season’s biggest pitching risers. Reddeman ranks higher on four of the lists, giving him the tie breaker. That is despite him being unranked in the older Pipeline rankings.
31. Mason Edwards, LHP, USC – 451
Edwards is another big riser this spring, and he is also hurt by the outdated Pipeline rankings, coming in at #88 there.
32. Tegan Kuhns, RHP, Tennessee – 426
Ranking just 77th over at ESPN is the one input that hurt Kuhns, his lowest ranking by 27 spots.
33. Kaden Waechter, RHP, Florida HS – 424
34. Coleman Borthwick, RHP, Florida HS – 421
35. Trevor Condon, OF, Georgia HS – 403
Condon was left out of the Law Top 50, which likely keeps him from being higher.
36. Sean Duncan, LHP, Canada HS – 402
Duncan could rise when Pipeline updates their rankings, as he is just #75 there after being at least 16 spots higher everywhere else.
37. Jensen Hirschkorn, RHP, California HS – 401
Hirschkorn is another player hurt by the Law list only being a Top 50, as he wasn’t included after being ranked no lower than #52 elsewhere.
38. Joey Volchko, RHP, Georgia – 396
39. Aiden Ruiz, SS, New York HS – 394
40. Aiden Robbins, OF, Texas – 383
41. Joseph Contreras, RHP, Georgia HS – 378
Contreras was just #79 at Overslot after being Top 50 everywhere else.
42. Will Brick, C, Tennessee HS – 372
Brick is another highly ranked player not included in the Law Top 50.
43. Brody Bumila, LHP, Massachusetts HS – 369
Bumila is a helium prospect this spring who likely would have come in higher if not for the fact he was unranked by Pipeline. Elsewhere he came in 25, 31, 33, 34, 45, and 69.
44. Chase Brunson, OF, TCU – 353
Brunson is a beneficiary of being ranked in all seven spots.
45. Jake Brown, OF, LSU – 330
46. Gabe Gaeckle, RHP, Arkansas – 318
47. Zion Rose, OF, Louisville – 314
48. Hunter Dietz, RHP, Arkansas – 313
49. Rocco Maniscalco, SS, Alabama HS – 308
Maniscalco’s rankings range anywhere from #19 at Pipeline to unranked at PG.
50. Logan Hughes, OF, Texas Tech – 305
Hughes was unranked by both of the shorter lists, ESPN and Law.
51. Archer Horn, SS/RHP, California HS – 293
52. Ben Blair, RHP, Liberty – 288
Blair is another riser this spring, who ranks this high despite being unranked by both Pipeline and Law.
53. Landon Thome, SS, Illinois HS – 275
54. Connor Comeau, SS, Texas HS – 274
55. Beau Peterson, 3B, Kansas HS – 258
56. Cole Koeninger, SS/RHP, Texas HS – 235
57. Bo Lowrance, 3B, South Carolina HS – 232
58. Noah Wilson, OF, Tennessee HS – 230
Wilson is a rising prospect this spring, and ranked here despite being unranked by both Law’s short list and Pipeline’s older list.
59. Kevin Roberts Jr., OF, Mississippi HS – 223
60. Ethan Kleinschmit, LHP, Oregon State – 219
61. Ruger Riojas, RHP, Texas – 217
62. Jack Radel, RHP, Notre Dame – 209
63. Caden Bogenpohl, OF, Missouri State – 197
64. Gavin Grahovac, 3B, Texas A&M – 185
65. Blake Bryant, RHP, Georgia HS – 185
Grahovac and Bryant were each ranked higher in three spots, and both unranked in the seventh set. Grahovac takes the higher ranking by coming in #26 over at Pipeline.
66. Jacob Dudan, RHP, NC State – 183
67. Ty Head, OF, NC State – 182
68. Will Gasparino, OF, UCLA – 168
69. Savion Sims, RHP, Texas HS – 163
70. Kaiden McCarthy, RHP, Vermont HS – 161
71. Brady Harris, OF, Florida HS – 160
72. Carson Tinney, C, Texas – 158
73. Jarren Advincula, 2B, Georgia Tech – 156
74. Ryan Lynch, RHP, North Carolina – 155
75. Wes Mendes, LHP, Florida State – 151
76. Cooper Harris, RHP, Texas HS – 151
Mendes and Harris are each ranked higher in three spots, and unranked in the seventh. Mendes wins the tiebreaker by coming in at #45 at ESPN, one spot higher than the high of #46 for Harris on Law’s list.
77. Taj Marchand, SS, South Carolina HS – 145
78. Maddox Molony, SS, Oregon – 142
79. Bo Holloway, LHP, Tennessee HS – 139
80. Andrew Williamson, OF, UCF – 138
81. Cooper Sides, RHP, California HS – 138
Both Williamson and Sides are ranked higher in three spots, and this gets settled by Williamson’s #46 ranking in the ESPN set.
82. Myles Bailey, 1B, Florida State – 119
83. Cole Prosek, 3B, Mississippi HS – 115
84. Ethan Norby, LHP, East Carolina – 114
85. Matt Ponatoski, SS/RHP, Ohio HS – 114

91. Alex Hernandez, 2B, Georgia Tech – 91
92. Henry Ford, OF, Tennessee – 84
93. Brady Ballinger, 1B, Kansas – 84
Ballinger and Ford rank higher in two spots apiece, and are both unranked in three locations. The win goes to Ford for being #58 at Pipeline, one spot higher than where they had Ballinger.
94. Trey Beard, RHP, Florida State – 82
95. Alex Weingartner, OF/RHP, New Jersey HS – 81
96.Tommy LaPour, RHP, TCU – 80
97. Daniel Cuvet, 3B/1B, Miami – 75
98. Will Yow, SS, Virginia HS – 75
99. Keon Johnson, SS, Georgia HS – 75
This three-way tie is settled by Cuvet ranking highest in three spots, Yow in two, and Johnson in one, with all of them being unranked in Law’s Top 50.
100. Shane Sdao, LHP, Texas A&M – 72
Sean Dunlap, C, Indiana HS
Denton Lord, RHP, Florida HS
Eli Herst, RHP, Washington HS
Martin Shelar, OF, Georgia HS
LJ Mercurius, RHP, Oklahoma
Brendan Brock, C, Oklahoma
The trio of Dunlap, Lord, and Herst were the first three guys out of the rankings, with each getting 70 points.

The consensus rankings include Baseball America, Pipeline, Perfect Game, ESPN/Kiley McDaniel, The Athletic/Keith Law, Overslot/Mock Draft Simulator, and the author's own rankings.
In the point system, the player ranked No. 1 on a list receives 100 points, while the player ranked No. 100 receives one point.
A total of 156 players received at least one point in the 2026 MLB Draft consensus rankings.
If players are tied in points, the higher ranking is given to the player who appears on the greater number of lists, followed by the highest ranking on any list.
