The Joys Of Opening Day

The excitement of not one but two Opening Days this week -- MLB on Thursday, Triple-A on Friday -- drives the discussion on the latest edition of the Pipeline Podcast. Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff begin by talking about what they're most interested in about this season, from Japanese pitching sensation Roki Sasaki coming to the Majors to top 2024 draftees playing their first full pro seasons to Phillies right-hander Andrew Painter returning to complete health. The guys also take a look at Top 100 Prospects who are beginning the year in the big leagues (such as Red Sox second baseman Kristian Campbell) and those who are waiting for the call from Triple-A (such as Pirates righty Bubba Chandler). They wrap up by talking about the prognosis for prospects who struggled in their first taste of the big leagues, including outfielders Dylan Crews (Nationals) and Jasson Dominguez (Yankees), before answering a listener mailbag question about the complex leagues.
