2026 Top 100 Prospects
This year’s preseason Top 100 is the 37th edition of our flagship prospect ranking. Here at BA, we view the Top 100 as the culmination of our year-round efforts to show both how prospects are perceived by the industry presently and project who will produce in the future.
Construction of the Top 100 is a lengthy, detailed process involving industry feedback from MLB scouts, coaches, analysts and front office officials, as well as plenty of internal debate among BA staff. We make sure to watch players in person as often as possible and utilize as much data as we can find. The Top 100 also relies on the extensive reporting done to produce our Top 30 Prospects rankings and the Baseball America Prospect Handbook.

Ketel Marte's Top-100 Ranking Proves D-backs Made Right Choice
The Arizona Diamondbacks are not trading Ketel Marte. And considering he was just named one of the best players in all of MLB, that appears to be the correct move by GM Mike Hazen and the D-backs' front office.
On Wednesday, MLB's prestigious Top 100 list continued its rollout. The Diamondbacks had been somewhat lacking for representation in the upper numbers, before Geraldo Perdomo became the first Arizona player to make the list at No. 24.

A few spots later, Marte came in at No. 19, sandwiched in between a pair of Dodgers in Will Smith and Mookie Betts. Surprisingly enough, 19 was the same exact spot he was awarded after his exceptional 2024 campaign.
