Carlos Collazo and Peter Flaherty hop on the Baseball America Draft Podcast to talk about a medley of different draft topics and draft classes.
The two talk about Rhett Lowder’s promotion to the majors and how his career has thus far played out as expected while also talking through the recent heater that Cubs 2024 first-rounder Cam Smith has been on.
The two then discuss lessons learned from previous drafts and draft prospects, including how to deal with anchoring biases and weighting performance, prospect fatigue and over- or under-reacting to changes in player performance and tools.
The show closes with some conversation about a handful of the top 2025 prospects in the class, including South Carolina’s Ethan Petry and a 1-2 pitching punch of Tyler Bremner (UC Santa Barbara) and Jamie Arnold (Florida State).
