Tampa Bay Rays prospects Nick Schnell and Cole Wilcox have started the Diamonds in the Rough podcast as a way for minor league baseball players across the league to connect with the fans of the game and tell stories about their Road to the Show. In this episode, Nick introduces "In a Pickle", and Alek Thomas joins us to discuss the high school days and his professional baseball journey up to this point.
