Today is the second to last update to the class of 2017 rankings, with our final update coming up in just over month, before the June MLB Amatuer draft. The Rankings stay at the top 190 players, with shifting all the way from top to bottom and new players being added as well as some previously ranked players returning to the fold.
Two major moves into the top ten as MIAA top players Garrett Matheny (Calvert Hall) and Ethan Gallagher (Mount St. Joseph) enter into the top ten at the No. 6 (Matheny) and No. 7 (Gallagher) spots.
Also rising into the top 25 is Bishop McNamara RHP Maceo Campbell. Campbell is a projectable arm that has been as high as 88 mph on the mound and is trending upward.
Another riser is RHP Michael Yuille at Northwest HS. Yuille is a recently converted pitcher who has climbed in velocity and has continued to garner interest and intrigue pitching in the 84-87 range and could add two way potential depending on the program.
Here is your sneak peek into the Top Ten:
