THE ROSTER

PITCHERS

Tyler Frazier RHP / C / Newcastle, OK / 2026

Frazier has been making a name for himself so far on the summer circuit showing the most pitchability in the class.  He uses his upper 80's fastball paired with ability to spin two breaking balls and feel for the changeup to navigate the through even the tougher lineups multiple times.  Frazier still has plenty of room for upside and velo growth coming in the near future.

 

 

Kaden Longman C / OF / Newcastle, OK / 2026

Longman will work as a PO in this year's event as one of the quicker armed right-handers in the class.  The Newcastle product has reached the fastball up to 89 mph in the past and has advanced feel for spinning the breaking ball in the mid 70's.  Another prospect that still has plenty of room for growth, Longman shows his natural advanced arm strength with the ability to reach up to 83 mph from the crouch on pop times showing there's still plenty more in the tank.

 

 

Elijah Williams LHP / OF / Community Christian, OK / 2026

The left-hander from Community Christian has proven himself to be considered amongst the best in the class at missing bats in a hurry.  Williams recently showed off the arm strength when we caught him at the Oklahoma State Games where he reached up to 89 mph while showing his usual strong feel for pitching in the zone.  Although slightly undersized, Williams has the type of attack of a potential power arm and should be one to key in on this week.

 

 

Cooper Leggett RHP / Bixby, OK / 2026

Leggett burst onto the scene collecting big innings for Bixby in his sophomore season.  The 6-foot-7 and 206 pounder has shown raw stuff at times in the past working into the upper 80's and low 90's with the fastball and shown the ability to pound the strike zone.  His projectability and feel for pitching should make him a hot commodity heading into this week and has a chance to be one of the more coveted recruits in the class.

 

 

Laird Williams RHP / 1B / Memorial High School, OK / 2026

First thing you notice when Williams takes the mound is the physical size and stature standing at 6-foot-7 and 260 pounds.  It's not just about the size though, Williams has shown strong pitchability so far in his high school career working deep into games using his upper 80's fastball and increasingly improving mid 70's breaking ball.  Williams has true power arm potential as he continues to build strength into his large frame and has already shown the ability to pound the zone making him an intruiging follow this week.

 

 

William Grayson Jr. SS / RHP / Mount St. Mary, OK / 2026

Grayson Jr impressed on the mound at the Top Prospect Underclass Games where the right-hander worked the fastball up to 86 mph and a hard breaking ball in the upper 70's.  Standing at 6-foot-3 and 170 pounds, Grayson Jr has one of the quicker arms in the class and his athleticism shows out on the mound making him one to keep a close eye on in the coming years as a potential power arm.

 

 

Parker Hayes LHP / 1B / Mount St. Mary, OK / 2026

Parker Hayes has one of the more projectable arms and builds in the class standing at 6'6 and a lean 175 pounds.  Hayes works from a unique lower slot with a slinger like action working in the mid to upper 80's and has a feel for a sweeping breaking ball making him a tough matchup against LH bats.  Hayes has continually showed jumps in the past few years and with his size and plenty of room to continue to add strength, makes for him to an interesting follow this week and into the next couple of months.

 

 

Jayce Ramirez C / RHP / Duncan, OK / 2026

Ramirez recently impressed at our OKC Summer ID earning him a spot to pitch in this week's Future Games.  The right-hander worked the fastball up to 87 mph with an easy delivery and showed potential feel for the mid 70's slider with bite and tight action.  Ramirez' ability to pound the zone paired with his already "big" game pitching experience in his young high school career and big jumps already shows the type of upward trajectory you want to see from a young right-hander.

 

 

Preston Welch 1B / LHP / Byng, OK / 2026

Welch joins the pitching staff for Team Oklahoma after an impressive performance at the OKC Summer ID on the mound.  The left-hander worked the fastball into the mid 80's but it was ability to land and spin the breaking ball in the zone that caught our attention.  The Byng product has athleticism that shows up on the mound and should be an intriguing follow in the coming months.

 

 

2-WAY

Jake Beutler LHP / OF / Canute, OK / 2026

Beutler has high upside on both sides of the ball showing his 2-way skills at the Top Prospect Upperclass games earlier this summer.  He's already shown the ability to pitch in the mid to upper 80's and strong feel for landing the breaking ball in the zone.  Offensively, the left-handed bat has gap power presently with hand strength and enough speed and arm strength to potentially play any of the three spots in the OF in the future.

 

 

CATCHERS

Reid Smith C / 3B / Piedmont, OK / 2026

Smith has been on the radar for the past couple of years as one of the better offensive backstops in the 2026 class in OK.  He had a big performance with the bat at the Top Prospect Upperclass Games and has continued to produce throughout the summer circuit.  He is athletic for the position turning in a 6.95 60 and shows enough arm strength with showcase pop times as low as 1.96 to be able to remain behind the plate at the next level.

 

 

Kaleb Thiessen OF / C / Calumet, OK / 2026

Thiessen caught our attention in multiple looks at him this past spring as one of the top switch hitting bats in the OK '26 class.  He has strong barrel control from both sides of the plate and swings with strong balance and present gap power.  Thiessen also offers up some positional versatility where he split his time this week both behind the plate as well as in the outfield.

INFIELDERS

Jackson Turney 1B / LHP / Sand Springs, OK / 2026

Turney has made a name for himself already as one of the better power bats in the class hitting in the middle of the Sandite order since the beginning of his freshman year.  He has some of the best strength at contact in the class with exit velocities into the upper 90's and the power shows up in game action.  Turney has done a good job of working on his frame over the past frame that has also improved his overall athleticism.

 

 

Whit Thomas SS / 3B / Heritage Hall, OK / 2026

Thomas has made big strides in his game over the past couple of months that culminated in a strong performance at the Top Prospect Upperclass Games.  The projectable 6-foot-2 and 175 pound left-handed hitter showed improved strength at contact to pair with his usual strong defensive actions in the infield.  Thomas will split his time this week on the left-side of the infield as well and will add first base to his arsenal at the Future Games.

 

 

Cooper Kardokus SS / RHP / Edmond Memorial, OK / 2026

Kardokus returns to the Future Games after participating last year as the only 2026 to represent on the roster.  Kardokus more than held his own showing well in the box from both sides of the plate and can play all over the infield.  He comes into this year's event as the top ranked player in OK to join the roster and after a big spring for Edmond Memorial, he should be one of the more coveted recruits in the class.

 

 

Easton Roby SS / RHP / Okarche High School, OK / 2026

Roby burst onto the scene at last year's Oklahoma State Games and hasn't looked back since with one of the better left-handed strokes in the class.  Roby has true power potential with exit velocities repeatably into the upper 90's and has shown the ability to drive the ball to all fields.  Defensively, he plays underneath the ball well with athleticism in the feet and will also pitch an inning this week showing his true versatility.

 

 

Jase Winchester SS / 2B / Edmond Memorial, OK / 2026

Winchester joins the roster as one of the top defenders in the class at any position, manning the shortstop position for Edmond Memorial since the beginning of his freshman year.  Winchester has advanced actions up the middle with enough arm strength to remain on the left side in the future.  Offensively, he uses his level stroke to work the middle of the field effectively and can show you some sneaky pop at times making him an intriguing follow headed into the week.

 

 

Eddie Fish SS / 2B / Yukon, OK / 2026

Fish has been on the radar for the past couple of years thanks to his advanced athelticism, but he has taken that up another notch after an impressive showing at the Top Prospect Upperclass Games.  Fish turned in a 6.53 60 and worked exit velocities up to 97.3 mph showing a unique power/speed combination.  Fish is arguably one of the top athletes in the class and has potential to be one of the better prospects as he continues to gain experience.

 

 

Jackson Harris SS / 2B / Dale, OK / 2026

Harris joins the roster coming off a strong spring for Dale and a big summer with the bat on the circuit.  Harris has an athletic swing that has shown signs for adding power in the future.  Defensively, he has a feel for actions and soft hands and has positional versatility that could allow him to play all over the field to pair with his higher baseball IQ making him an intriguing follow into the next recruiting cycle.

 

 

Luke Hill SS / 2B / Okarche, OK / 2026

Hill will represent Team OK as one of the better defending middle infielders with strong feet and glove action.  The Okarche product uses a flat swing with barrel control to work line drives from line to line and has one of the highest motors of anyone in the '26 class.  Hill will be splitting time throughout the week in both the infield dirt as well as show his positional versatility in the outfield.

 

 

OUTFIELDERS

Ritson Meyer OF / OF / Elgin, OK / 2026

Meyer joins team OK as one of the better athlete/power combos in the '26 class.  The Elgin prospect has shown serious strength at contact in our looks at him in games and has the chance to play all three outfield spots at the next level.  Meyer's physicality at the plate paired with his upside as an overall athlete makes for him to be intriguing follow throughout the week.

 

 

Avery Lonberg OF / 3B / Edmond North, OK / 2026

Lonberg had one of the bigger springs from all the participants on this year's Oklahoma squad as one of the more productive bats for the '26 class at the varsity level.  Lonberg has a full body swing approach which allows him to use his leverage to create present gap power and the projectability for more in the future as he gains strength.  The left-handed bat has a chance to be one of the more physical bats in the class and can easily man a corner spot in the outfield at the next level.

 

 

Tyler Robinson 2B / OF / Edmond Memorial, OK / 2026

Robinson caught on late in the season for Edmond Memorial adding a big speed element to the Bulldog's lineup.  He turned in a blazing 6.32 laser timed 60 at the Risin Scout Day making him one of the fastest players in the country.  It's not just speed though with Robinson, he also is much more physical than his size would suggest, showing advanced strength at contact with exit velocities up to 97.2 mph.
