AL Central Casting (Guest: Jac Caglianone)

The MLB Pipeline Podcast's division-by-division look at the game's prospects continued this week in the American League Central. Before that, Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff dove into the first "market corrections" of the Top 100 and looked at the revised top 15 (led by Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony), biggest risers (including shortstops George Lombard Jr. of the Yankees and Jesus Made of the Brewers) and new additions. Then the gang welcomed in one of the prospects who moved into the updated top 15, Royals slugger Jac Caglianone, before discussing other AL Central prospect standouts like White Sox outfielder Braden Montgomery. The guys talked about some big-name callups to the big leagues -- the Cubs' Cade Horton and Moises Ballesteros as well as the D-backs' Jordan Lawlar -- before answering a Mailbag question about Mariners outfielder Jonny Farmelo.
