Baseball America's high school player rankings of their Top-50 HS Draft Prospects have usually been fairly credible and they become more accurate with ongoing revisions as the spring approaches the June MLB Draft date. Looking at the Top-50 ranked Seniors that will be playing their final season in 2018, is a bit surprising if you are a PAC-12 fan.
The PAC has only four of the pre-season top-50 headed to our conference while half (25) are committed to SEC schools, and 10 more to ACC programs. That is a huge disparity of talent distribution heading south. Of course, that all becomes irrelevant once the Draft takes place - most of those ranked players will be early round selections and will sign professional contracts.
Arizona has the #3 and #4 prospects committed, Stanford has #46 and Cal has # 48.
