SPPod Ep. #210 - Scouting Salem

Three weeks into the minor league season, the guys took a look around the system to gauge the early returns at each level. The injury bug, while mostly having avoided the MLB club, has hit the Red Sox system as of late, with several top prospects landing on the injured list. Chris and Ian talk about the injuries, as well as how that impacts depth for the big club. The guys play another round of Checking Levels, and Chris saw a very interesting and fun Salem team.   As mentioned on the show, our Patreon supporters received game reports from Chris' trip to watch Salem after he got back from the game and if you want to get on the list, visit our Patreon for details.
