Prospects Live Podcast

Ralph and Eddy chat about one of the strongest systems in the game right now. They talk about how pitching development has been massive for several names this year, which 2019 third rounder recorded historic exit velo data and why Eddy is simultaneously excited and worried about one subsection of players.

Eddy and Jason chat about a system that is in a lot better shape than it seems.

Ralph and Diego go back and forth on one of the, er, less exciting systems in the game. There are still some interesting rookie ball names, why two lefties in Aaron Ashby and Antoine Kelly are very underrated in the system, and what to make of Corey Ray.

Alex Jensen and Matt Powers join up for a meaty discussion on our MLB 2020 Mock Draft 1.0. Listen along as they discuss the reasoning of each team's selection along with the upside and pitfalls with several picks. https://www.prospectslive.com/mlb-draft/2019/12/4/mlb-2020-mock-draft-10

Eddy and Ben go back and forth on one of the systems with the best top five in baseball. They also dive into what makes a 16-year-old outfielder the potential next big thing for Minnesota, a 6-foot-9 starter that gave up just 6 BB and 8 ER in 75 innings and which bat might be statistically be close to Kris Bryant.

Ralph hosts a one-on-one discussion with Will Scharnagl on his Royals top 30 list. How good is Bobby Witt Jr? Which name is the Royals' next closer? What did Will think of the pushback on his Isbel ranking? And a great discussion on Daniel Lynch, Jackson Kowar, Brady Singer and where Ralph and Will diverge. Disagreement is good!

The duo go over what might stop Kristian Robinson from being a stud, whether Alek Thomas or Corbin Carroll can expect a power surge, why Daulton Varsho might be more valuable than you realize (hint, not the steals), what it means to be an athlete and why that matters for Jeferson Espinal, and more!
