Bichette, Schwarber, Arraez, Ozuna, Realmuto and Suárez are some of the other notable position players in this class.

The 2025-26 class also includes an intriguing crop of starting pitchers led by Cease, Gallen and Valdez, and a stacked list of relievers that could get even deeper if Díaz and Suarez opt out.

Crochet, Sale, Díaz, Arozarena, García, Crawford, Gausman, Peralta, Luzardo, Perez and Soler are among the other notable players here.

As we look far down the road, the 2027-28 offseason could be a big one for the catching position, with Rutschman, William Contreras and Raleigh all eligible to reach free agency.

Given his age (he'll be 30 at the end of 2027), Gilbert could be the most coveted starting pitcher in this class if he continues to perform like he did from 2022-24 (3.38 ERA, 4.78 K/BB).
