  • Draft (Combine) Fever
    2025/06/18
    The latest Pipeline Podcast comes from the MLB Draft Combine at Chase Field in Phoenix, where Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff are taking in all of the action. They highlight the top performers from the first day of workouts, including Arizona State outfielder Brandon Compton and California prepster Quentin Young (Delmon and Dmitri's nephew). After Jonathan interviews perhaps the most talented player in the entire Draft -- California high school right-hander Seth Hernandez -- he and Jim project the first round, pick by pick. As always, the fun ends with a question from the listener mailbag, this time about how much to believe mock draft intel.
