We’re only a few days removed from the conclusion of the 2014 draft, but it’s never too early to start looking ahead at what next year’s class has to offer.
While my colleague Adam Wells already highlighted many of the top 2015 prospects on Monday with a mock draft, here we’ll look at next year’s crop of talent in greater depth through a position-by-position breakdown. Each player’s position is based on his projection as a professional, as guys are often drafted at a position other than their primary position as an amateur.
Players are ranked based on their perceived impact potential in the major leagues. However, keep in mind that these rankings will change drastically between now and next June, as the class hasn’t even taken shape beyond some of the highly touted prospects you’ll soon read about.
Here are the top-ranked 2015 draft prospects at each position.
