This prestigious, invitation-only event features only the top draft prospects in the Prep Baseball Report’s expansive coverage area. Over the last 20 years, the Super 60 has become the most heavily scouted preseason event for potential draft picks. The primary purpose of the Super 60 is to give professional area scouts, cross-checkers and scouting directors a head start to the high school season. The event is for draft-eligible Class of 2023 prospects. 

The Super 60 Pro Showcase has hosted some of baseball's top prep talent while serving as the first stop along the year's MLB Draft circuit. In 2021, catcher Henry Davis (Fox Lane, NY) was selected No. 1 overall by the Pittsburgh Pirates. Davis attended the 2018 Super 60 showcase, alongside RHP Ryan Cusick (Avon Old Farms, CT), who also heard his name called in the first round of the 2021 MLB Draft. Additionally, six Super 60 alumni were drafted within the first three rounds in the last two years, including RHP/SS Owen Murphy (Riverside-Brookfield HS, IL), SS Noah Miller (Ozaukee, WI), RHP Spencer Schwellenbach (Saginaw Heritage, MI), C Carter Jensen (Park Hill, MO), and 3B Alex Binelas (Oak Creek, WI).

In total, the Super 60 hosted 25 players who were ultimately selected in the 2022 MLB Draft. The '22 draftees soon joined the likes of Gavin Lux (Kenosha Indian Trail, WI),, Jarred Kelenic (Waukesha West, WI) and Alek Thomas (Mount Carmel, IL) as former, recent Super 60 participants who have since begun to thrive in the pro ball setting.

Nevada has had a rich tradition of standout prospects represent our state at the Premier Pre-Draft event of the Preseason as the focus begins to shift from college to solidifying themselves as legitimate MLB Draft type prospects. The Nevada alumni who have attended the Super60 event includes, Paulshawn Pasqualotto - starting pitcher for UC Berkeley, Tanner McDougal - 5th Round Pick of the Chicago White Sox and Greyson Grinsell - Oregon two-way. This year is not different with Nevada’s #1 ranked 2023 prospect, Jet Gilliam, set to represent the Silver State among the best players in the country.

Gilliam has the present tools - running consistently in the 6.6 range that he uses to separate himself as the top defensive outfielder in the state. At the plate he has proven to have present power especially to the pull side with more to come as well as being able to hit for average (.380 - 2022 Spring), along with the projectable frame that will only get stronger as he continues to mature and we expect that to amplify each part of his game to yet another level.
