We read some of the 1950's scouting reports on famous players and they are both hilarious and entertaining. Baseball scouting movies are plentiful with Moneyball being one of the most important baseball  stories regarding the scouting of players.  From being a '5-tool' player to the 20-80 evaluation system for players things have come a long way. 

Is scouting today easier or more difficult before technology and data came into playing such an important part? We discuss it all and had great fun reading the scouting reports of Sandy Koufax, Willie McCovey and Tom Seaver! 

This is our final podcast of 2023 so we want to wish everyone a healthy and Happy New Year since on Monday next year is here!
