Teddy Cahill and Peter Flaherty break down all the college baseball action from around the country before week 11 of the season. They start with last weekend's showdown between Tennessee and Kentucky, and look at how the Volunteers and Wildcats stack up as national contenders. They look at Wake Forest's surge in ACC play, which has the Deacons in the hosting conversation. They also look ahead to some big rivalry series this weekend, as Oregon visits Oregon State and Oklahoma hosts Texas.

Carlos and Peter hop on the draft podcast to talk about the state of the top of the 2024 class. The two talk about how the top tier of players hasn’t changed significantly in the last few weeks and that the group seems pretty wide open after about pick 10 or so. The two talk about one of the more consistent up-arrow prep prospects in the class, Bryce Rainer, who the two previously loved as a pitching prospect, though they both are coming around to liking his toolset and hitting ability as a shortstop prospect. His NHSI performance does nothing to sway that opinion and has him a steady mover up draft boards.After that the two talk about Sam Houston State catcher Walker Janek, who is having a career year with the bat and also might just be the top defensive catcher in the class. How long will a profile like that last on draft day and what is our confidence in the catcher pecking order at this stage?Next the two talk about a unique hitter who profiles as both a first baseman and center fielder in Texas lefthanded hitter Jared Thomas, who like Janek is having a strong offensive season. After that the two break down a few Vanderbilt pitchers who, despite a rough last week against Texas A&M, could be poised to hear their names called on day one of the draft.–Time Stamps(0:00) State of the top of the class(7:00) Bryce Rainer(14:10) Walker Janek(21:40) Jared Thomas(29:00) Carter Holton(34:30) Bryce CunninghamOur Sponsors:* Check out Triple Crown Jewelry and use my code BA2022 for a great deal: triplecrownjewelry.com* Check out eBay Auto: www.ebay.com* Check out: indeed.com/BASEBALLAMERICASupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/baseball-america/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Teddy Cahill and Peter Flaherty break down all the college baseball action from around the country before week 10 of the season. They start with Texas A&M, college baseball's new top-ranked team, which is fresh off a sweep of Vanderbilt. They also talk about last weekend's big upsets, as Alabama felled Arkansas and N.C. State took down Clemson, and examine which series was more impactful. They then turn their attention to the weekend ahead, highlighted by a top-10 showdown between Kentucky and Tennessee and a first-place showdown in the Sun Belt between Louisiana and Coastal Carolina.Time Stamps1: Texas A&M takes over at No. 18: The sweep’s impact on Vanderbilt13: Arkansas and Clemson both lost their first series of the year.

Carlos and Peter hop back on the draft podcast to talk about players up and down the board. They get things started by talking about JJ Wetherholt’s return to the lineup for West Virginia last weekend and try and think through where he fits on the draft board now. Is he fully back into the 1-1 mix that he started the season at or have players like Charlie Condon and Travis Bazzana created a gap?And how about Nick Kurtz? The Wake Forest slugger has gotten back to his power-hitting ways over the last two weeks and all of the sudden looks like the exact sort of hitter we expected to see. Can he rejoin the top-of-the-draft conversation as well and just how insane has his home run streak been?The two move further down the board to discuss another big power name, but one without the same refined offensive approach as Kurtz: Mississippi State outfielder Dakota Jordan. The two marvel at his bat speed, talk about his improvements this spring and dig into some of the details about his overall offensive approach and hit tool questions.Next the two talk about Texas shortstop Jalin Flores as a potential salve for the 2024 class' lack of impact shortstops and wonder about how real his loud spring performance is thus far.Finally the two close by talking about ECU righthander Trey Yesavage, who continues to post weekly, rack up strikeouts, limit his walks and deploy a deep pitch mix with impressive feel to command the baseball.—Time Stamps(3:45) JJ Wetherholt’s return to action(11:00) Are Wetherholt and Nick Kurtz back in the 1-1 convo?(14:30) Nick Kurtz’s home run streak(23:30) Mississippi State OF Dakota Jordan(31:30) Should we talk more about Texas SS Jalin Flores?(40:45) Trey Yesavage’s SP3 case in the classOur Sponsors:* Check out Triple Crown Jewelry and use my code BA2022 for a great deal: triplecrownjewelry.com* Check out eBay Auto: www.ebay.com* Check out: indeed.com/BASEBALLAMERICASupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/baseball-america/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Carlos and Peter hop on the pod to talk draft.The two discuss the recently announced slot values and bonus pools for the 2024 draft. How does having more than $18 million dollars in pool money impact a team like the Guardians picking 1-1? Other teams like the D-backs have a relatively large amount of money to work with considering their first pick, while the Cardinals are on the other end of the spectrum with relatively little inside the top 10.After that the two talk through a staff draft that they did with JJ Cooper, Geoff Pontes and Ben Badler. Which picks were surprises? What was our thought process for each of our individual picks? And how does the class seem to be shaping up now? Finally Peter gives a preview of the 2026 college class after dropping his first ranking of that group on the site this week.—Time Stamps4:00 Bonus Pool overview7:20 Why the D-backs are a team to watch at the back of the draft11:15 How Cleveland and Cincinnati have operated differently with pool money16:47 Staff draft conversation begins18:00 Peter’s 1-1 rationale19:24 Carlos’s 1-5 dilemma24:40 The first high school player off the board at 1033:10 Peter pops the first high school pitcher46:20 Staff draft wrap and overall thoughts48:20 Peter’s 2026 college class overviewOur Sponsors:* Check out Triple Crown Jewelry and use my code BA2022 for a great deal: triplecrownjewelry.com* Check out eBay Auto: www.ebay.com* Check out: indeed.com/BASEBALLAMERICASupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/baseball-america/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Cooper and Carlos Collazo explain what each brings to their respective lineups this year.

Two of the best rookies in baseball are HERE. Our new BA Prospect Profiles dive into the anticipated debuts for Wyatt Langford and Jackson Chourio. Scott Braun, J.J. Cooper and Carlos Collazo examine Langford's fast rise through the minors -- including why he's in a great position to simply mash early in 2024 for the Rangers. Then they discuss why the Brewers feel Chourio is a future franchise cornerstone, plus why it's not crazy to draw some comparisons to Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr.'s early career arc.
