Episode 58: Double-A Scouting Looks

Chris tackles a wide range of topics in this solo episode, starting with why we often judge 2025 prep draftees—like Ethan Holliday, Tate Southisene, and Dax Kilby—far too quickly based on tiny professional samples. He then shifts into a creative evaluation segment, imagining potential pitch mixes for several low‑level arms, including Seth Hernandez and Cam Caminiti.
