As summer comes to a close and the fall season approaches, we’re excited to release our third update of the year for the Class of 2028 Alabama Player Rankings. The list now features 70 of the state’s top prospects, reflecting the impact of standout performances throughout the spring and summer months. From strong showings in high school competition to dominant outings at summer Prep Baseball events, players have continued to refine their skills and strengthen their résumés. This latest update not only highlights those making significant strides but also sets the stage for the upcoming fall circuit as the prestigous Future Games looms next summer for these sophomores.

As always, our evaluation process is fluid and ongoing, built on multiple viewings and discussions to get the most accurate feel for each player’s abilities. It’s worth noting that while some players show rapid improvement, this doesn’t suggest that others have regressed—player development is simply a journey with peaks and valleys. As the season unfolds, new names will continue to surface, expanding the universe of top prospects in Alabama. In addition to our player evaluations, our scouts—both in-state and nationally—have been in constant dialogue, comparing notes and making adjustments based on the latest insights to ensure the rankings are as up-to-date and accurate as possible.

The Top-10 in the Class of 2028 ⭐

Hudson Oliver OF / LHP / Guntersville, AL / 2028 Rankings  StateRank: 1 / POS: 1 From 8/7/25: "Oliver (Guntersville, 2028) has already made some big jumps since the last viewing at the Junior Future Games last year and continues to set himself apart from the majority of his peers. A pristine 5-foot-11, 171-pound build with uber-athletic traits, Oliver possesses impactful tools scattered across the profile that should only continue to develop and improve over the course of the next few years. The left-handed swing continues to show why he's the top-ranked player in Alabama, as he guides the barrel through the zone on a super clean path with present bat speed and some quality length to the swing. The approach is more pull-side gap with some upwardness to the path, and with added strength and physicality, the power tool should continue to come more into play over the next couple of years. Just a tool-shed of a prospect; 6.62 60-yard dash, 94 mph OF, 103.9 mph EV."
