Locked On Guardians - Daily Podcast On The Cleveland GuardiansAbout this episode
College baseball has seen an offensively charged environment in the last few years and it's hit a few more headlines among the MLB Draft this year. Friend of the show Geoff Pontes of Baseball America joined the show to talk about his most recent article (https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/how-mlb-teams-draft-analysts-navigate-tricky-college-baseball-run-environment/) about how MLB teams are taking the offensive explosion in college into their approach to the MLB draft. We also get into where the current 1-1 debate sits for the Guardians as well as a quick look at CJ Kayfus and Nate Furman getting promoted to Double-A. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
