Class of 2022 Player Rankings (March)
As we start to look at the 2022 graduate class in New England it is fair to mention that the 2022 class is ultra-talented. The class has a wide variety of excellent players at various positions. There are a few committed players within the class as of today but the majority of the graduating class is still wide open. A few off the board at the top are Matt Scott (Stanford), Ben Brutti (URI), Brandyn Durand (Kentucky) and Evan Blanco (UVA). We look forward to watching this class grow and evolve as the next couple years go by.
That being said, we have had the pleasure of seeing a number of solid players this past year. Prospects are popping up left and right, making velocity jumps, improving 60-yard dash times and showing more power with the bat.
Covering six states, New England is a prime area for legit baseball talent and now we would like to bring to you the updated 2022 Player Rankings.
