Ben and Carlos talk about the improved pace of play in the minor leagues thanks to implementing a pitch clock and enforcing it. The two give their thoughts on the rule change and talk about a few potential ramifications, before talking about Ben’s International Review series. Ben gives some insight into a few players who have stood out throughout the process and also talks about some teams who have done well in the international space. Following that, the two walk through a recent Baseball America staff draft, where writers made picks for each team in the first round. They give their thoughts on each pick, what their thought processes were for their own picks, and then talk through how the 2022 first round could potentially shape up this July. Finally, the two take a few listener questions.
