2027 Top High School Draft Prospects

Baseball America’s new rankings of the top high school players in the 2027 class are here.

With the summer circuit underway, the top players in the country are separating themselves as prospects to watch for the 2027 MLB Draft. The 2027 class is a high priority for top college programs, who can contact potential recruits beginning on Aug. 1.

There’s a new No. 1 player in the nation, with shortstop Dylan Seward jumping from No. 9 to the top of the list. Seward brings advanced hitting ability from both sides of the plate, elite speed and smooth defensive actions along with high-level instincts that are evident in all facets of the game. Typical of most years for this age group, it’s heavy on position players at the top of the list, but the 2027 class is well stocked with high-end pitching.

While some players in the 2027 class already have a college commitment made before the NCAA rule changes prohibiting contact until Aug. 1, the majority of the top players in the country are uncommitted. TCU is one early standout on the recruiting trail with three commits ranked among the top 50, but the competition for most of the best 2027 players remains open.

These are the top players in the 2027 class, complete with scouting reports on each prospect.
