Podcast: Draft and All-Star Weekend recap

July 12th, 2023

On site from the Seattle Seahawks copy room at Lumen Field, Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff wrap up the most chaotic week of the year by recapping the 2023 MLB Draft and Futures Game. The crew breaks down what happened at the very top of the Draft -- where LSU's Paul Skenes and Dylan Crews made history by going 1-2 -- and then delve into the rest of the first round before highlighting some of the teams they think did best.

They also go through each of the top 10 rounds and select one pick that they view as being the best value. The conversation continues with a recap of the Futures Game -- including the eye-popping performance by Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski -- and the High School All-American Game and Home Run Derby, both of which saw 2024 Draft prospect PJ Morlando claim the top honors.

And, as always, the discussion ends with a question from the listeners' mailbag, this one about where the top pitchers in this year's Draft class will slot into the Top 100 Prospects list.
