  • aaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
    The show is boring
    Dear guys sorry to be hard on you but besides some interesting infos here and there, you make baseball boooorinnngg. Please go to your production meeting and chance some aspects of the “show”.
  • Fan Since '69
    Liven it up!
    Sleepiest host ever. He sounds like he should be on a sleep podcast. Callie and Mayo have good insights, but the pace is lethargic. Makes the listen a slog often. Pick the energy up, guys.
  • Tony Pumilia
    Good content but where is the production?
    I like to listen to this show but I feel like the billionaire MLB owners could find enough change in their couch cushions to pay someto make sure listeners can actually hear the hosts every episode.
  • NBA Jive
    Love the Content; Slight Audio Issues
    I really enjoybthe prsopect talk and haven't really found anything to itch this niche elsewhere. Enjoy the insight drom John and Jim; only issue is sometimes the audio quality is low or off, which holds it back from 5-stars for me, but I really, really enjoy the content
  • Baltimorebeast
    One Gripe
    I love the podcast! You all do a very good job. But please someone tell Callis that it’s not “ops” its “O-P-S”. No one in the game pronounces it as “ops”.
  • Whitewolf ST
    Pitchers specifically Peyton Battenfield
    This young man was being developed by the Tampa organization and suddenly the Guardians gave up two AAA pitchers for him and brought him up to pitch five games without any support from the offense and they all came up as losses even though his numbers weren’t that bad. He actually struck out Aaron Judge and several other Yankees. I know this young man personally he is truly all American personality. You’ll find nothing about him that is flawed. He has a wife had a baby. He was up-and-coming, and all the sudden he gets injured with the Guardians and they release him and trade them off to the Mets, which in my opinion the worst development organization there ever was. They have no idea what to do with the players and they ended up spending millions last year on pitchers and then dumping them off and now take this young man and just dumped him. I am so upset about this, if he would’ve stayed with the Tampa Bay organization he would have developed into one of their better pitchers. He’s from a small Oklahoma town called Verdigris. He and his brother both were All State pitchers that got scholarships to Oklahoma State University, and they both were drafted and got respectable bonuses. I say shame on the Mets and the Guardians-and the way they treated him.
  • Peter Guillam
    You Boys OK?
    March 19, 2024, you talked about Yankees, prospects. You hate the Yankees. Talk around the clubhouses has always been that it went back to Ole’Man George refusing to pay your “maintenance fees” prior to releasing your prospects list all those years back. Word was, since the Ole’ Man didn’t pay, you had nothing ever to say about his minor leaguers. Probably just talk or, in your cases, no talk.
  • telastico
    Great for baseball nerds
    These 3 guys really know what they are talking about. Great pod for a junkie like myself
  • jeffjackcoat
    great pod - please fix audio quality
    please fix audio quality. it’s close to ruining a great podcast.
  • infinitesuccessJS
    Jim-Boy…Ohh, Jim-Boy
    ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE interview with Jacob! Thank you Mr.Misiorowski and Mr.Callis. Huge fan of the pod, now an even BIGGER fan of Jacob.
  • Big train dude!
    Yeah
    Hi Jim Callis and Jonathan Mayo! My name is Ethan Altomare. Thanks to 2020, I have been following the MLB draft and I was looking at the list draftees for this year and I can’t even believe how many players are being born in the 2000s. I was born in 2005 and I saw that a lot of draftees are around my age! Geez. Please tell all of the draftees good luck for me. Play Ball! Thanks, Ethan Altomare

    Cure for insomnia
    Seriously, it works every time
  • Ryan McG 32
    Informative
    As a student of baseball and also a fan of the Orioles, this podcast is particularly interesting to listen to. Jim Callis and Jonathan Mayo are very insightful on the prospects and how the clubs develop their talent. Jason Ratliffe also gets an “A” as host. Keeps it moving and adds some of his own knowledge to the mix. Well done fellas.
  • Rosco Dumbledore
    great info, terrible host
    the discussions about prospects are insightful and well considered. however, the host is so unprepared and bumbling, it slows down and confuses the discussion. host should simply prepare the outline and move us through it efficiently. way too many umms and ahhs and just dead silence or unneeded digressions.
  • Icecoast_skier
    Grate podcast
    Good podcast. Fun to listen to as a new listener.
  • b76475
    Good info but..
    The interviews are brutal to listen to.
  • Reds win 77
    Pretty decent but…..
    It’s a great podcast. Well recorded too, but there is WAYYYY too many ads!!!
  • Temp92837448383
    Sincerely great people, and a great podcast
    These guys engage their listeners more than any other podcast I know. It doesn’t go unnoticed, and I appreciate you giving the listen the time of day
  • FANO
    A++
    New listener just this last year great show guys keep it up!!
  • Sct809
    Jonathan and Jim
    Jonathan’s obsession with favoring players of certain faith’s is a bit biased and absolutely obnoxious. This whole cast makes prospecting, something I love, incredibly boring. Zero energy. Waste of space hosts
  • Ru44Mets
    Love coverage of minor league
    I love baseball and especially following minor league baseball and this is the best podcast out there. Keep up the great work
  • hhhehhuuuuueu
    Enough with the boner adverts
    Please get a new sponsor, I cannot stand any more.
  • Cale VD
    Excellent podcast
    I love all things baseball but I love hearing about the stars of tomorrow, in large part due to the expertise of Jim and Jonathan. Their knowledge and opinions always make for an interesting listen. I tune in each week and love listening on my commutes. Keep up the good work!
  • anon888888888
    O’s fan
    Great podcast, love the Orioles talk on this week’s episode.
  • Haineswalker
    Great show
    I’m grateful for all the unique commentary on MLB prospects. It’s the number one podcast to find hidden gems. Thank you!!!
  • Cesar C 6
    Great pod
    Great content
  • phillies_kiiiiiid
    Quarantine idea!
    Make lists of some hits and misses on prospects you’ve had in the past. Can be as far back as you guys want. Name prospects that you were high on that proved you wrong and some that proved you right! I think everyone would enjoy that!!
  • Zebedee- father of sons
    Outstanding
    One of my favorite Podcast for baseball. The guys all give great breakdowns and analysis for ratings and follow up during the season as well as an occasional interview. If you are not listening and you are a fan you shine.

    Chad Stevens
    Hard to find Podcasts that focus on future prospects from High school on up.
  • Cameroonthefirst
    Great for passing time
    I really enjoy listening to the podcast so much so I want multiple a week. As unrealistic is that is, just keep up the good work. I guess I can settle for one a week.
  • Astros c
    Nice
