June 13, 2025

Get Ready For The College World Series

The road to Omaha has reached its end, and the 2025 College World Series officially gets underway this weekend.

Arizona and Coastal Carolina kick things off at 2 p.m. ET on Friday, and we’ll be providing live updates throughout each game. Here’s a rundown of Baseball America coverage from this week to get you ready for all the CWS action:

Top 300 Dynasty Prospect Rankings

For our main Dynasty Top 500 rankings, prospects are just a portion of a larger puzzle. These players account for around a third of the list, meaning we’re only ranking the most-rosterable prospects across a variety of league sizes and styles.

But what about those prospects who don’t crack the Top 500?

To answer that, Geoff Pontes and Dylan White have updated our separate dynasty prospect rankings to provide an expanded look at the top up-and-coming players worth targeting in fantasy.

Every Player Headed To The MLB Draft Combine

Major League Baseball and USA Baseball announced the field of players participating in the 2025 MLB Draft combine Friday. The fifth edition of the event has a field of 322 players and will take place from June 17-21 at Chase Field in Phoenix.

On field action takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday and includes a broadcasted showcase on MLB Network on Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. local time.

10 Rising College Draft Prospects For 2026

The 2025 MLB draft is almost exactly one month away. At the same time, a big summer circuit is about to get underway for next year’s 2026 prospects across the country.

All will be ranked in a prominent spot on our next 2026 draft rankings update that will be released next month, so this list should serve as a good primer for names to follow heading into next year.
