Hot 2024 Draft Debuts + Summer Standouts For 2025

Baseball America

Carlos and Peter hop on the draft podcast to talk about notable early pro debuts from the 2024 draft class. Who’s been hotter than Christian Moore? Are we more excited about buying into a first base profile after what we’ve seen from Nick Kurtz? Can anyone slow down the Angels with their aggressive pushing of prospects? Are we concerned about Charlie Condon’s strikeouts?

After that the two pivot towards college talk for the 2025 class. Peter breaks down some of the most impressive players he saw in the Cape Cod League and then talks about his Top 100 Transfer portal rankings. This leads to a discussion about college baseball’s added scholarships and then to close the show the two talk about notable high school standouts from the summer, specifically from the annual East Coast Pro.
