We’re less than two weeks away from the start of the Prep Baseball Nevada Preseason calendar, as our staff prepares to travel across the state to host three events ahead of the high school season.

Every event acts as an identification point for future invite-only opportunities, including Top Prospect events, the West Coast and Super Sophomore Games as well as the prestigious Future Games. These events give aspiring collegiate athletes the chance to collect accurate, verified measurable data in a workout setting while showcasing their skills in front of our scouting staff. Participants can also update their Prep Baseball profile, which serves as a recruiting “resume” for each athlete. 

Several of Nevada’s top prospects have already registered for our upcoming winter events and we’re excited to see the depth of talent across the state up close. Below you’ll find a closer look at the high-level prospects who will be evaluated this winter. All prospects listed are registered for one of the three Preseason ID events, two in Las Vegas and one in Reno.

We begin our Winter Watchlist with some of the many top underclassmen attending our Preseason ID events. Stay tuned for updates on upperclassmen and event-specific content as we get closer to each event.

Players are listed in no particular order.
