Episode 118: Scouting The Scouts
from Future Projection Hosted by iHeartPodcasts
Ben and Carlos talk about how the top of the composition of the 2025 draft class compares with 2024. The two discuss Coby Mayo’s comments about being reassigned to Triple-A Norfolk for what will be his third year at the level. The bulk of the show is spent on a discussion about “scouting the scouts.” What’s the value? What are the risks associated with it forming or changing your own opinions on players? They then talk about a listener question regarding technology’s impact on scouting. — Time Stamps (0:00) Housekeeping on the 2025 draft rankings process (5:30) This year’s HS shortstops compared to Konnor Griffin (7:30) Jamie Arnold vs. Hagen Smith vs. Chase Burns (10:00) The composition of the top of the draft (17:00) Coby Mayo (28:40) Scouting the scouts (47:00) How much has technology changed the game?
