Drafting The Best High School Tools In The 2026 Class

About this episode

Carlos and Jacob conduct the high school version of their best tools draft from a week ago. The two attempt to create the most impressive player possible by drafting the best tools in the prep class. The two each attempt to create the best possible hitters by drafting hit, power, run, field and arm tools. On the pitching side they each draft a fastball, curveball, slider, changeup and control.

Like before, the ground rules are that each player is only eligible for one category so once they’re picked they can’t be selected again. Let us know which hitter and pitcher you like best.
