On this week’s podcast, I chat with Emeralds’ play by play man, Jacob Archer, to talk over Eugene’s amazing first half.

It’s a whole lot of Bryce Eldridge talk on the latest KROG podcast, as Kerry Crowley and I kick around what the emergence of their top prospect means for the franchise going forward.

It’s another week of gathered player interviews from CarMax Park in Richmond, VA. As the Squirrels close in on a first half title, I talk with a couple of new Richmond players and one who is newly returned to get their views on how their year of development has been going so far.

On this week’s podcast, we’re talking Richmond Flying Squirrels and their magical first half. First I speak with Richmond manager Dennis Pelfrey regarding the success his group has had, not only with the W-L record, but also with helping prepare their players to move onwards and upwards. Then I talk with Richmond Director Communications, Trey Wilson, about the team’s spectacular new stadium and the fun ride this first half has been.

It’s a Richmond Flying Squirrel bonanza, as I roll out a bunch of player interviews from the past two homestands. I talk with Parks Harber about his health, his experience in big league camp, and his work in the outfield. Virginian Ty Hanchey relives a magical moment in front of friends and family. Joe Whitman talks about the growth he’s made since last year. And Mitch White recounts the long road to his dream of being a professional. It’s a great group of really likable young men who have traveled really disparate baseball journeys — but who are all aiming for the same destination.

Joe Doyle, draft expert from Overslot Baseball dot com and the MLB Draft Podcast, joins me to talk a little 2026 draft. Joe and I get into why floating Roch Cholowsky “isn’t a thing,” the chance of things getting squirrelly in the top three, and how the new #29 pick (and its associated bonus pool money) could affect the Giants’ draft strategy. It’s always a good one when Joe joins me on the pod!

Of course, I needed to post this immediately after we recorded yesterday, otherwise I was just tempting the Gods with that “Lou Brown winning streak” stuff. But otherwise, Kerry and I had a lot to dig into with the Giants’ content-generating ways of late!

Perfect timing for this week’s pod, as the two heroes from last night’s walk-off victory at CarMax Park both sat down with me this week to discuss comebacks and walk offs (naturally) as well as what makes this Richmond team such a special group and what sort of work is going on in the background to help drive success. Two extremely impressive young men who are a joy to talk to — and I hope to listen to as well!

I’ve already share these interviews in video format, but I know folks come to my content from different places and with different preferences for consuming information, so I’m going to include them as a standalone podcast as well. These interviews with Richmond Flying Squirrels pitchers Greg Farone and Tyler Vogel were conducted in the first week at home at the brand new CarMax Park as the pair has both just gotten into one game each. Since then Farone has started two more games and Vogel has established himself as the team closer, picking up four Saves already on the year.

I’m joined this week by my friend, Wrenzie Regodon, who you probably know as Giant Prospective on Twitter or at his Patreon site. As usual, we spend a long time looking over all four of the affiliate rosters and picking out the most interesting parts of the rosters, as well as tabbing sleepers, stars, and other players who catch our eyes! It’s a long one so settle in!
