  • Great Content + Consistency

    Baseball America has continually provided an immense amount of knowledge on up and coming prospects throughout the whole country. They do it in a way where it’s very knowledgable and concise making it for an easy listen.

    They also post very frequently and do it in a timely manner to where we, as listeners, can expect these posts to go up. Very nicely done

  • Great show + pronunciation

    Always a must listen when BA drops a pod!

    For the host on the last pod who wanted to know, Tomas Valinčius should be pronounced TO-mas (o sound same as in “Go”) Va-LIN-chus (the “u” sound the same as “book”).

    Kind of depends on if the C is actually a Č or not (the little carrot on top makes it a Ch sound). If it’s just a regular C, it would be Va-LIN-see-yus (u as in “Book”)

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Jett Williams & Nathan Flewelling Join, World Series Talk & More | Hot Sheet Show Ep. 129
Q: How did you add extra power without sacrificing too much of your plate discipline?
Flewelling says he trusted a consistent approach rather than trying to hit home runs, while swing adjustments helped him make more consistent contact and get on time.
Jett Williams & Nathan Flewelling Join, World Series Talk & More | Hot Sheet Show Ep. 129
Q: What are some things people may not realize about being traded, entering a new organization and adjusting to new surroundings and coaches?
Williams says the transition was easier than expected because the Brewers welcomed him, and he appreciated the Mets organization as well.
2026 Prospect Hits & Misses | Prospect Podcast
Q: What is one that you look back on and you say, oh, I've had that guy pretty well nailed?
Ian Cundall names Enddy Azocar. He had seen signs of hard contact, speed and defensive ability before the breakout, and Azocar went on to hit for power and steal bases while becoming a trade centerpiece.
2026 Prospect Hits & Misses | Prospect Podcast
Q: What is a guy that stands out to you as someone that you're like, you know, looking at it now, if I could have it to do over again, take a mulligan and re-rank or re-write that one a little bit?
Geoff Pontes names Moises Ballesteros, saying he was too optimistic about the prospect's risk. Ballesteros's defensive limitations and uncertain path to regular playing time made his hit-tool upside less secure than Pontes had projected.
Fast-Moving Picks & Late-Round Draft Finds | Draft Podcast
Q: What teams' drafts excite you more now than they did maybe at the end of draft day?
The Brewers stand out for finding intriguing later-round high school signings and taking creative draft chances, while the Yankees impressed with several strong pro debuts and promising players throughout their class.
