About this episode
Ben and Carlos hop on the show to talk through our most recent top 100 update that dropped this week, including notable up-arrow moves from a number of Red Sox prospects—most prominently Roman Anthony and Kristian Campbell. The two work through a number of risers on the list, including Chase Dollander, Kumar Rocker, Alejandro Rosario and Tyler Black, then also talk about a couple of players who have slid or fallen out of the list entirely. Ben makes a point on potentially overvaluing athleticism in baseball, the two discuss whether or not Rhett Lowder’s pure stuff is underrated, wonder how much margin for error Thomas Harrington has and take a listener email about draft pick trading. — Time Stamps (1:00) Thoughts on the top 100 (4:30) Roman Anthony as a complete hitter (7:30) Marcelo Mayer vs. Roman Anthony (12:00) Kristian Campbell’s ascension (19:00) Jackson Jobe and Chase Dollander as the top arms (27:30) Kumar Rocker's return (35:00) Is Rhett Lowder’s stuff underrated?
