Initial Class of 2018 Rankings Released
August 28, 2015
By Jacob Gill
Pennsylvania Assistant Director of Scouting
Today marks the initial release of PBR Pennsylvania's Class of 2018 player rankings. Lots of standard caveats apply to the efficacy of this endeavor. They include, but are not limited to:
- These kids don't even have their driver's licenses yet
- Most of them probably don't even own a razor
- The vast majority of their peers haven't sniffed a varsity baseball field
Nonetheless, college baseball coaches are taking notice, as four members of the sophomore class have already given verbal commitments (they were highlighted in yesterday's article on the top five prospects in the rankings). And while pro scouts are predominantly focused on the senior class, they keep one eye on the future, as we saw with two members of this cohort being invited to participate in the Area Code Games Underclass event earlier this month.
Below are the top ten prospects on the list. The full list can be found here.
