The 2026 high school baseball season is quickly approaching and as usual, excitement is building throughout Minnesota. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the upcoming season and, as is the case each year, there is no shortage of talented players and teams across the land of 10,000 lakes.

Prep Baseball Minnesota strives to be the most comprehensive source of player information across the state. Prep Baseball is the number one resource for high school baseball in each state that we cover through various events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work together, creating each state's most potent high school baseball promotion source. While other organizations take a national approach, our goal is to become the authoritative voice on the ground level of each state.

Please keep checking back throughout the season as we will be your one-stop shop for everything related to high school baseball across the state.

Each week we will be releasing our Player of the week and Diamond Notes, covering all the bases across the state of Minnesota.

TEAM OUTLOOK

“The Royals return their entire pitching staff and will again be a team focused on pitching and defense.  A number of faces new to the Varsity level are expected to win time at key positions and help the team bounce back from a rare sub-.500 final record in 2025.  They will be challenged along the way with a schedule that includes each of last year's #1-6 QRF-ranked teams with 5 games against 2025 State Tournament participants.” – Brian Harapat, head coach
