Episode Details

Lindsey Crosby and Braves prospect analyst Gaurav Vedak break down key Atlanta farm developments, led by lefty Briggs McKenzie’s aggressive move to High-A Rome after one dominant start and the traits driving it (elite spin, plus changeup/curveball, strike-throwing). They discuss Carter Holton’s return and likely quick climb, Herick Hernandez’s improved fastball/slider mix and starter outlook, and why Davis Polo’s slider/changeup-heavy approach is intriguing but needs testing at higher levels. On the position-player side, they cover Tate Southisene's promotion and top-100 rise, Cody Miller’s demotion and hit-tool concerns, and John Gil's age-to-level context and swing issues. They also highlight outfielders Logan Braunschweig and Eric Hartman as potential 2028 options, spotlight reliever Isaac Gallegos, note early promising DSL bats (Cabral, Maignan, Starlin de la Cruz), and share potential trade chips and a preference for a college bat at pick nine with an under-slot, quantity-focused draft plan.
