It’s almost draft day, and with that Ben and Carlos are joined by Peter Flaherty for a joint draft/Future Projection episode where the team does their best to break down round one for each team in the game. We go through every team in the first round and talk through their potential options for this year’s draft, talk through draft strategy, debate players, talk through team philosophies and much more. Buckle up, this is a long one and will hopefully get you ready for draft day.If you like this episode, consider subscribing to the Future Projection podcast.—Time Stamps(2:35) Guardians(11:30) Who would we take at 1?(17:30) Reds(19:00) Why is Jac Caglianone so polarizing for us?(25:00) Rockies(27:20) Which pitcher would you take at 3 for the Rockies?(31:00) A’s(37:00) White Sox(42:00) Royals(46:00) Cardinals(50:00) Angels(52:30) Trey Yesavage as a polished and fast-moving arm(56:00) Pirates(59:00) What’s the knock on Nick Kurtz?(1:04:00) Nationals(1:06:00) Bryce Rainer vs. Konnor Griffin(1:10:30) Tigers(1:13:00) Red Sox(1:18:00) What arms make sense for Boston if the top three are gone?(1:20:00) Giants(1:21:00) Cubs(1:25:00) Mariners(1:27:00) Jurrangelo Cijntje vs. Brody Brecht(1:31:00) Marlins(1:33:00) Brewers(1:38:00) Rays & Mets (1:40:00) Blue Jays &Twins(1:44:00) Orioles(1:45:00) Dodgers(1:48:00) Braves(1:53:00) Padres(1:55:30) Yankees(1:59:00) Phillies(2:01:00) Astros(2:03:00) D-backs(2:05:00) Rangers(2:07:00) Players we are higher and lower on—Do you have a question you want us to answer?
