Top Prospect Label Perilous Indeed and Stan The Man Career A Rarified Breed


Listen Later

This week we discuss the the ups and downs of top baseball prospects. It sounds really awesome to have the top prospect label on a player, but what perils are there for that label? We also discuss big top prospects that let down through the decades. For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the approval of the AL divisional alignment in 1968. What were the rammifications of this and was it the wheelhouse for baseball in terms of format?

Our Hall of Famer this week is Stan Musial. No real discussion in terms of election, but just how great was Musial during his career? Buckle up! For our parting shots we discuss the forgotten powerhouse Jimmie Foxx and addressing the "weak schedule" for the Phillies in 2024 so far. 

Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials in between segments with Michael Jordan for Gatorade, the famous "Chicks Dig the Long Ball" Nike ad, and an Upper Deck Griffey Jr contest!

Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small. We hope you'll enjoy the ride.
