Special episode this week as Ian is joined by Geoff Pontes of Baseball America to preview the upcoming MLB Draft! We hit on a range of draft topics including the strengths and weaknesses of the class, how it compares to last year and who could fall from the top 10 to the Red Sox. Geoff also discussed why former Red Sox draftee Gavin Kilen is an intriguing target for Boston, what happened to Jace LaViolette this year and what the catching crop looks like. Before that, we also hit on a few other topics including the Futures Game rosters which feature Jhostynxon Garcia and the new Baseball America Top 100! Got something to say?
