With the 2010 Draft in the books, it's never too early to start looking at the year ahead. As you probably already know, the 2011 class is loaded with talent. In terms of overall depth, next year's class could rival the stacked 2005 class. But, only time will tell how things will shake out. Until then, follow the jump to take a peek at where some of the top prospects for next year will be playing summer ball.
The official Team USA Collegiate National Team roster has not been officially announced. However, we can make a pretty good assumption as to who will make the team. For those listed that do not make the cut, they all have Cape Cod team's that they can still go play for. And obviously, some of these players will be playing in the College World Series within the next couple of weeks. Leagues such as Northwoods, Prospect, etc., will be apart of another post. Feel free to nominate another player whom you think I may have missed as this is only a quick look. Without further ado:
