Raking Rookies . . . And Who's Next (Guest: Caleb Bonemer)

Rookies are taking MLB by storm and dominating discussion on the latest Pipeline Podcast. Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff kick off the latest edition by breaking down the hot starts by Kevin McGonigle (Tigers), JJ Wetherholt (Cardinals), Sal Stewart (Reds) and Chase DeLauter (Guardians), among others. After an interview with White Sox shortstop prospect Caleb Bonemer, talk turns to when exactly the next wave of top talents could arrive in the Majors, starting with Konnor Griffin (Pirates). Griffin also comes up under the subject of prospects signing long-term contracts before making their big league debuts, which Cooper Pratt (Brewers) and Colt Emerson (Mariners) did this week. After the weekly Roch Watch, the guys field a mailbag question about which Draft prospects have boosted their stock the most so far this year.
