Adam Copeland is joined by Athletic Writer Melissa Lockard to break down the MLB Draft and what she thought of the different approaches from the Giants & A's. A 20 round version of the Draft just concluded and Melissa felt like things were close to back to normal with it. She talks about how the draft evaluation process was this year with so many players not playing much last season cause of Covid. The Giants & A's had different strategies in the Draft this year. The Giants took a ton of pitchers and Melissa talks about why they went with that approach. She talks about how team's look at taking a high school player vs a player in college. Another big question asked is always is it best available or best fit and Melissa talks about that one. And they talk about the A's drafted another Max Muncy 9 years after they drafted the Dodgers star Max Muncy.
