Prospects Live Podcast Prospects Live

Adam and Jake are back for The Backfields to discuss upper minors breakouts. The pair attempt to argue in favor of various early season standouts across Double- and Triple-A and ultimately determine there might be a few to pay attention to for fantasy and non-fantasy purposes. 

Is Elly De La Cruz the best dynasty asset in baseball?!?

Greg (@greghoogkamp) is joined by the three jolly lads Ryan (@ppenayr), Taylor (@dynastypickups)) and Rhys (@RhysBWhite) where they discuss just that and more as they mock a start-up dynasty draft with the new information we've learned so far this season.

But first, the guys discuss foul balls and hit on some recent MLB news.

To skip right to the draft the TIMESTAMP IS 16:00
