On this week’s episode of Future Projection, Ben Badler and Carlos Collazo wrap up their series of organization overviews following the 2024 season with the American League West.
The two open the show with a conversation about the process behind Baseball America’s annual Prospect Handbook—which you can purchase here as a last-minute Christmas gift for yourself or a loved one!—and then get into the organization rundowns.
The two fawn over Seattle’s crop of young, up-the-middle hitting talent in one of the deepest and strongest systems covered yet, then get into an interesting discussion about who’s No. 2 in the division: the Rangers or Athletics?
After some prospect gushing over Nick Kurtz, Kumar Rocker and Sebastian Walcott, things take a turn for the worse in regards to the Angels and Astros, who seem to be battling it out for the dubious honor of No. 30 org ranking.
