Episode 3: Jared Koenig & Rookie Ball Get Started

I get you prepared for Jared Koenig's first start as an Oakland Athletic by detailing his incredible backstory, pitch profile, and prospects for success. I also discuss the interesting evolution of Jeff Criswell's arsenal over the past two years, Max Muncy's successful first full professional season, and why we shouldn't dismiss JJ Schwarz's chances to stand in a major league batter's box one day. Finally, in a bonus segment, I preview the rosters of Oakland's ACL and DSL teams and talk about the challenges of evaluating players at the Rookie level.
