Let's get things started! (Guest: Roch Cholowsky)

There may have been frigid temperatures across the country over the last couple of weeks, but baseball is about to start heating up. Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff are excited to warm their hands by that fire on this week's Pipeline Podcast. They kick things off by previewing the start of the college baseball season this weekend, where a ton of top Draft prospects will get things going. None are ranked higher than UCLA's Roch Cholowsky, the No. 1 prospect in the Draft class, and he joined the pod to talk about the Bruins and the Draft. Then the guys shifted focus to the start of Spring Training by looking at the top prospects in baseball in big league camps and their chances of making their respective Opening Day rosters before finishing the episode off with a Mailbag question about who from last year's Draft class could be this year's Konnor Griffin.
