We’re updating our 2024 high school draft rankings ahead of the start of the spring season across the country.

Plenty could change between now and the MLB draft in July, especially considering this year’s crop of talent is relatively down compared to year’s past. Still, there’s a certain amount of predictability to what will unfold over the next several months.

Max Clark and Walker Jenkins were our top two prospects, respectively, at this time a year ago in our 2023 high school rankings. Both went on to become top-five picks and now rank among baseball’s 20 best prospects.

The first 13 high school players drafted, from Clark at No. 1 to shortstop Tai Peete at 30th overall to the Mariners, ranked among the top 35 high school players in our rankings a year out from the draft.

We can feel confident that the first-round picks from the 2024 high school class will mostly come from the top 50 players on this list, and that most of the Day 1 picks will already be ranked on our Top 100.

There’s work to be done, though. This year’s crop of high school talent lacks an abundance of premium up-the-middle profiles with hitting chops. There’s also no clear frontline pitching prospect like Noble Meyer or Andrew Painter in recent classes, although the pitching depth is enticing.

LSU has the most commits (11) of any program in the Top 100. Tennessee follows suit with nine commits.
