In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, we were joined by esteemed member of Braves fam Doc Herbert (@BravesHerbert for the uninitiated). We recapped the goings-on in the minors and then talked with Doc about the plethora of mock drafts we have seen, what they have been telling us, and who we think could end up as Braves after the 2017 draft. Enjoy!

In this episode of Road to Atlanta, the R2A crew were joined by none other than current prospect analyst emeritus and former member of the Braves front office Kiley McDaniel. We covered a WIDE range of prospects and topics in both covered the Top 32 prospect list that Kiley put out earlier this week as well as delving deeper into the system as well.

In this week's episode, we had a very special guest as Baseball America's JJ Cooper joined us to talk Braves prospects and minor league baseball in general. We covered a WIDE range of topics to our favorite players from Rome's rotation this past year, Acunapalooza, the penalties on the Braves', his thoughts on the catcher and 3rd base positions in the minors, and a whole lot more. This one ran a bit long in the best possible way. Enjoy!

In this week's episode of Road to Atlanta, special guest, advanced stats guru, and digital dandy Dan Szymborski joined us on the podcast.

Enjoy!
