College baseball is in full swing. Conference play is underway, games are hitting ESPN's family of networks, and I can be found perusing ballpark exteriors sampling various hot dogs and sausages until my stomach turns into a hodgepodge of partially-cooked Southern meats. There's almost too much baseball to take in this time of year, when the heart of the college slate meets the excitement of the start of the MLB season. But look no further than the Houston Astros' Opening Day roster, which features 2024 draftee Cam Smith starting in the outfield on a regular basis. Smith played just two seasons at Florida State before becoming a first-round draft choice by Houston last summer, and is now positioned to be a regular fantasy contributor throughout the remainder of the campaign. We'll see the same in 2026, 2027 and 2028. There is no question. College baseball is developing elite prospects faster and better than ever before and for this reason, a plethora of top-level players are making it to campus and getting their names called in their early twenties. We'll dive into a handful of players that could fit that bill in this week's collegiate corner.
