As Thanksgiving winds down, we recently dove in and updated the TN 2022 Rankings by expanded the list to 350 senior prospects. Minimal shuffling at the top with RHP Grayson Saunier (Collierville) still sitting at number one, but this list features 18 newcomers and 17 significant risers to the top 150. There are 18 uncommitted prospects in the top 100, lead by catcher Jonathan Larrea (Baylor School), and many more still searching for a home.
As always, the evaluation process is a fluid and ongoing process with multiple viewings in order to get the best feel for players abilities. It’s important to note that as players continue their development some show marked improvement at a much more rapid pace. That doesn’t indicate that other players got worse or went backwards, it’s just how player development works. As the season unfolds, players make improvements and new prospects pop up on the radar expanding the PBR rankings universe. In addition to the evaluations of players, our scouts, both those in Tennessee and nationally, have also had multiple discussions with each other to review our individual lists and then make adjustments based on what we've each seen.
