Scouting Director - Pacific Northwest

Seattle, WA - After a full year of scouting HS baseball, travel tournaments, invite-only events and showcases...it’s time to update and expand our player rankings for the 2021 class in Washington This edition of the rankings features 100 players from across the state. The 2021 rankings will be updated and expanded once baseball resumes and we have the chance to see and evaluate these players further.

When ranking players, we try to decide what their ceiling is as a prospect and balance that with the likelihood that they will ultimately reach their potential. We take into account their athleticism, physical tools, projection as well as their track-record of success in-game.

Since its inception in 2005, the Prep Baseball Report has evolved into one of the country’s biggest and most respected independent scouting services, with a singular focus of providing comprehensive year-round coverage in every state we are in. The mission of the Prep Baseball Report is to scout and promote amateur baseball - high school, junior college and college - and, ultimately, help athletes achieve their dreams of playing baseball at the next level. With more than 150 scouts, we have the largest baseball scouting infrastructure across all levels of amateur baseball in the country.

The Prep Baseball Report is the No. 1 resource for amateur baseball in each state we cover through our variety of events, boots-on-the-ground scouting staff, daily coverage, and multimedia platforms. Our multimedia platforms and events work in tandem, ultimately creating the most powerful source of high school baseball promotion in each state. While other organizations take a national approach, our goal is to become the authoritative voice on the ground level of each state.

Rankings are based off evaluations by scouting director Dan Jurik as well as additional PBR scouts across the country who have seen prospects from the state at various events.
