Ben and Carlos lament Chipotle’s points policy before getting into the real stuff. The two talk about a number of strong performances from a handful of 2025 draftees, including Seth Hernandez, Kade Anderson, Jamie Arnold, Tyler Bremner, JoJo Parker, Kayson Cunningham and others.

They then talk about the loud offensive season and power surge from Red Sox shortstop Franklin Arias, wonder about the strikeout tendencies of Tigers shortstop Bryce Rainer and talk about the approach overhaul of Nationals shortstop Seaver King.
