Eric Longenhagen just put out his essential Giants’ system rankings on Fangraphs last Friday. Which makes this a great time to catch up with Eric and talk a little Giants’ prospects. We get into the chaos that was created around the international signing deadline this year, as well as Eric’s appreciation for the talent the Giants are bringing in through that market in recent years. And of course, we talk plenty of Bryce Eldridge and pitching! Eric’s list are always interesting, insightful, idiosyncratic, and brilliantly written, so I look forward to them every year — and he’s just as much fun to chat with. Enjoy!
