The Prep Baseball Future Games is the premier recruiting event in amateur baseball, bringing together hundreds of college coaches and the nation's top uncommitted prospects in one place, LakePoint Sports in Emerson, GA. That much talent in one event is exciting, but it can also be overwhelming.

Before every Future Games, I build a list of players I can't afford to miss. Some are prospects I've tracked throughout the summer, others are familiar faces I've seen before, and a handful come highly recommended by our nationwide scouting staff. New stars will emerge throughout the week (that's one of the best parts of this event) but these are the players I'll be watching from Day 1.
