Chris Welsh joins the show to give his top 12 for first-year player drafts and talk MLB draft big questions. Jackson Holliday was the No. 1 pick to the Orioles, but he probably shouldn't be the No. 1 pick in your Dynasty draft. How far does he fall? Where do Druw Jones and Termarr Johnson rank among all prospects before they've even played a game? You can check out Chris Welsh's full prospect and Dynasty coverage here on the In This League Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/itlarmy
