We are inching closer to the MLB Draft, so it only makes sense that this week's podcast kicks off with a deeper dive into how the landscape has changed of late. In particular, Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and host Jason Ratliff examine the breakout performance of Seth Hernandez and discuss if he can become the first prep right-hander ever to go No. 1 overall in the 60-year history of the Draft.
Following the 18-year-old's electric outing at the National High School Invitational, the experts talk about what sets Hernandez apart and the history of high school righties in the first round of the Draft.
