My 2026 MLB Draft Board
It's a deep class of talent, but it lacks obvious tiers for where players will go in the draft. Either way, it's led by one of the most complete SS's out of college we've seen since Dansby, and a generational pool of LHP talent out of HS.
Ask me anything
Vanderbilt signee Gunner Skelton (@gunner15_) has the chance to live out a childhood dream with the ‘Dores next season.
But before making any decisions on his future, Skelton has eyes on a 3-peat with Columbia Academy.
