Ben and Carlos hop on the podcast to talk about the recently released BA 500 draft list. Ben peppers Carlos with questions about the class and where it stands. Both hosts talk about who they would personally take 1-1 if they were in the driver’s seat, then discuss a host of other draft topics including: should the Angels consider a high school arm like Seth Hernandez and put him on the fast track? Who are we taking among the top college arms? Which bats should Pirates hitters be excited about? How exactly are we supposed to handle Jace Laviolette? Hitters down the board we’re excited about, buzzy names beyond the first two rounds and a listener question about the best BP displays we’ve ever seen.
