2025 Top 100 Prospects

The Baseball America Top 100 Prospects rankings are our 36th edition of our flagship prospect ranking. We view this ranking as the culmination of all of our work all year, as we attempt to show how prospects are perceived by the industry right now, as well as project who will produce in the future.

After a significant update in May, we’ve continued to update the Top 100 for graduations. Now, as we do every month in-season, we’re back with a full re-evaluation for June, resulting in a number of new additions, drop-offs, risers and fallers.

To report the list, we have discussions with MLB scouts, coaches, analysts and front office officials. We also see players in person and utilize as much data as we can get our hands on. It also relies on all the reporting we did to produce our Top 30 Prospects rankings online, as well as the Baseball America Prospect Handbook.

Players are eligible if they have not exceeded 130 MLB at-bats, 50 innings pitched or 30 pitching appearances. Service time does not play a role in whether players are eligible for this ranking. Players who come to the U.S. as “foreign professionals” as defined by the MLB CBA are not eligible to be ranked.

Players in the Top 100 Prospects list are ranked for their long-term MLB impact, with allowances for the risk that they will fall short of that ceiling. The tools grades listed for each player are all future grades of what we project them to be in the best stretch of their big league careers.
