Greetings and salutations, everyone, it's Rich Wilson. Welcome to Fantasy Baseball live, our midweek prospect podcast or minor league podcast.

It is Wednesday, the 18th, about 10 o'clock in the morning, getting this out early, late night, last night as I was watching, prospect porn out in Hudson Valley, High A, where I got a chance to see Anthony Volpe, Everson Pereira,

Ronnie Maricio, and Francisco Alvarez, three definite top 100 guys, maybe three top 50 guys.

And Everson Pereira is probably not that far behind either.

So I believe all three of those guys made my mid-season top 100 list.

I'll talk about them at the end of the, just give you some early thoughts on those guys.

First time I had, well, had seen Anthony Volpe. I actually saw Anthony Volpe in high school

because he went to Del Barton, which is about

three miles from my house.

So I saw him in high school, saw him once in low A.

This first time I've seen him high A since he's really broken out.

I'd seen Ronnie Maricio before, but had never seen Francisco Alvarez.

So it was fun for me.

Be going back again tomorrow and maybe Thursday.

The tropical storm is coming up.

So we're at the cone of it.

So it's really humid outside.

So I don't know if we're going to see some storms here.

If that happens, I won't go.

But I've got 14 prospects for you guys to go through,

four or five kids that had really good weeks,

and the rest are requests.
