This week’s episode of the There R Giants podcast features two player interviews conducted in the not too distant past at The Diamond in Richmond. I caught up with shortstop Christian Koss just before his promotion up to Sacramento, and we talked defense, unexpected trades, and controlling the zone. Then I chatted with Carter Howell to talk about his baseball journey, including the impact of COVID, what happens when you go undrafted, and the things he’s learned about his game as a pro.

They’re both great conversations, and if you want to get much more of my coverage of the Giants’ minor league system, you can receive daily, ad-free posts by becoming a There R Giants’ subscriber.
