Ace Reese
OF
Age:
20.9
JR
Plano, TX
Mississippi State
Ace Reese is one of the louder power bats in the class, producing a .352/.422/.718 slash line with 21 homers in 2025 despite playing through injury. His power stands out as the brightest tool. Reese has easy plus juice generated from a physical 6'4", 220-pound frame, along with real bat speed. He leverages his frame and hit tool to do damage to all fields against both lefties and righties. He can be overly aggressive at times in the zone, but his swing decisions have trended in the right direction. The defensive fit is the main question mark. His limited range and an average arm put pressure on the bat, with first base or potentially a corner outfield a more likely long-term home.

Kohn has been up to 95 mph this spring, getting 17” of carry from the left side. The money pitch is a bullet slider with 3” of cut at 82 mph, drawing 49.5% swing-miss and a .161 wOBA against. It’s a 3 pitch starter with strikes who’s posting in the SEC, which will be attractive in July.

Booneville, MS

Davis sits 93-95, touching 97, on his two-seam fastball with 18” of arm-side run. His slider has 2” of lift and 6” of glove-side movement at 86 mph has been a weapon for him, drawing 42.3% whiffs and a .155 wOBA against. The change-up is the same profile as the fastball, but 8 mph slower. He’s flashed a cutter as well, which could work for him.

Karson Ligon
RHP
Age:
22.1
SR
Sarasota, FL
Mississippi State
Ligon is a high stuff senior sign, a profile that's done well in recent years. He's touched 99 mph from a low release height with average shape, but will get results regardless. He's got 2 breaking ball shapes, both of which are thrown in the mid-80s, being a slider with 5" of glove-side and a curveball with 4" of depth and 4" of sweep. His change-up averages 89 mph with minimal vertical and 13.5" of arm-side. His command is touch and go, which will be a key for him in terms of draft positioning.

Yorktown, IN
Mississippi State
Pruitt works from a 5’ release height, getting 20” of arm-side run on his fastball at 92 mph. He’s had mixed results on the fastball, but his best work has come off of his mid-80s slider which has been the best pitch in terms of whiffs and contact quality allowed. His change-up has an almost identical profile to his fastball, but is 9 mph slower, and drew elite results in a small sample last season.
