Luke Bailey knows the ebbs and flows of the draft cycle better than most. A high school catcher in the same draft class as Mike Trout, Bailey once had first-round potential and a commitment to Auburn. But Tommy John surgery hurt his draft stock.

He discusses all of it, including his journey to pro ball and how he fell back in love with the game playing indy ball, in our latest episode.
