Tune in to hear about Gabriel Moreno, Orelvis Martinez, Jordan Groshans, Colson Montgomery, and the delicious Jake Burger!

Baseball is back! Fresh on the heels of the new CBA being agreed upon Van, Brian, and Ron excitedly take a moment to chat about their favorite team's prospects: The Kansas City Royals!

We're wrapping up covering our host's favorite teams by talking about Van's LA Angels, but since the team's minor league roster is not all that great, we've combined it with another team's mediocre prospects, the Houston Astros.

They'll talk Reid Detmers, Sam Bachman, Pedro Leon, and more

The Tampa Bay Rons have been covered so it's time to shift to the midwest and the St. Louis Brians!

Van, Ron, and Brian delve into Nolan Gorman, Matthew Liberatore, and Jordan Walker, but they don't stop at the top of the list and eventually find their way to the part of the farm system where you go "Oh yeah, now this is what a 'normal' Cardinals prospect looks like."For those of you who are devoid of joy and only want to listen to Cardinals talk, shame on you (but we totally get it)!
