Summary

Soon after the MLB draft was completed, Chuck Garfien dialed up Amateur Scouting Director Nick Hostetler in his car while he was driving home to Kentucky to talk about the White Sox draft. Hostetler explains why this was a very different draft for the White Sox compared to past years (2:30), the meeting they had with Andrew Vaughn last month that left a big impression (5:40), stories about how far Vaughn hit the baseball at Cal (9:20), and he can pick up a seam on a baseball as it comes out of the pitcher's hand (13:45). Hostetler talks about Nick Madrigal being promoted to Double-A (19:10), why they're so high on 2nd round pick Matt Thompson (23:00), the exceptional speed of 4th round pick James Beard (25:30) and more.
