Biggest Risers

Spencer Evans LHP / OF / TNXL, GA / 2026 The '21 Junior Future Gamer seems to keep growing year after year, and adding more life to the fastball. He has always been able to locate with the fastball and his off speed, but now his fastball is creeping into the low 90's, and has the make up to be a power arm in the near future.

Matthew Franatovich OF / SS / Lambert , GA / 2026 Franatovich has bursts onto the scene this summer, and his emerging as one of the strongest left handed bats in the class. The swing is smooth and effortless with some real pop to the pool side. The atheltic, lanky frame is ready for strength and size to develop into a real power threat at Lambert this spring. His approach is mature for his age, and can drive the pitch on the outer half to the left center gap with ease.

AJ Rice SS / RHP / Pickens, GA / 2026 Rice had hands down one of the strongest freshman seasons out of anyone in the state. He tallied valuable innings with a sub 2.00 ERA, and carried that straight into the summer circuit. The pitch ability will compete for some of the best in the state, and has a legit 4 pitch arsenal that keeps hitters guessing. He mixes his fastball velo really well, and can run it up to 88 and 89 when he wants to.

Luke Nitkowski SS / RHP / Creekview, GA / 2026 On the mound Nitkowski is quickly becoming a must see arm in the class. His dad had a lengthy MLB career on the mound, and Luke has all the tools to continue on that direction. With added size and strength we should see him start sitting in the mid-upper 80's with 90's easily in the tank. He has a quick and natural arm action with a sharp breaking ball that will produce swing and miss.

William Myhand OF / OF / Mill Creek, GA / 2026 Myhand made his appearance at NPI this summer, and will be a early follow this spring at Mill Creek. Shooter Hunt had this to say, "really impressing so far. Athletic 6’ 185 frame has presence in the box & has landed on multiple balls with a heavy barrel including this double."

Carson Adomnik RHP / 3B / South Paulding, GA / 2026 Adomnik could be one of the strongest arms in the class when it is all said and done. He jumped from #41 up to #24 in this post summer update. The 6-3 framed righty made some big strides this summer in is delivery. He has been up to 87 with a smooth operating delivery that has a easy tempo. The intent is there when he tries to get behind is fastball and he has flashed a 3 pitch mix for strikes.

Geno Goralski OF / C / Denmark, GA / 2026 Pound for pound Goralski is one of the strongest platers in the class. He made a big jump from #58 to #29 after his strong showing at Top Prospect Games. He gained vaulable time this spring as a freshman at Denmark, and will look to be one of their main contributors in 2024. His swing packs a bunch and has a hand speed (per Blast Motion) of 77 that drives his powerful swing. He cracked his 60 under a 7.00, but I expect that to continue to drop as we head into next summer.

Chip Glogorski C / RHP / Kings Ridge Christian School, GA / 2026 Glogorski has earned the spot as one of the top catchers in state, and rightfully so after a big summer with the Georgia Jackets. He was a tireless worker behind the plate and at 1B all summer. He controls the game, and is a noticeable leader on the field. He swing developed all summer, and he continued to make adjustments on quality pitching.

Wesley Roberson / Glynn Academy, GA / 2026 Roberson swing from the left side is going to keep him climbing in the '26 rankings. He was a key piece for Glynn Academy at the top of the line up this spring. He carried that momentum over into the summer with one of the best 2026 grad teams in the country. He knows how to play the game, and is the type of "gamer like" playeer you want at the top of the line up. He has a smooth leg kick swing with real ability to make mid pitch adjustments, and handle any pitch over the plate.

Alexander Reyes C / OF / Brookwood, GA / 2026 Reyes popped up at the Top Prospect Games in June with one of the strongest perfomances of the day. The actions behind the plate are quick and efficient. He was consistently sub 2.00 pop time in the workout portion with easy translation in game play. He will continue to develop at the plate, but showed well this summer in a really strong line up.

Timothy Clark OF / RHP / Ola , GA / 2026 2021 Jr. Future Games alumni Clark has made some big jumps in 2 years on the mound. He has alwyas filled up the zone, and now with added size and strength he is trending upward as a top arm in the class. He has two-way potential with his easy athlecism and strong swing at the plate.

Jude Matthews LHP / OF / Lakeside , GA / 2026 The '21 Junior Future Gamer has really made some big strides over the last year. His fastball velocity ticked up 5mph or so in less than 6 months. He has one of the biggest breaking balls in the state, and is primed for a big spring that could lead into a breakout summer.
