Summary

In this episode of Road to Atlanta, Matt and Eric turn their attentions away from the current state of the Braves' minor league system and towards the upcoming MLB Draft. This draft is going to be a weird one with drastic reduction in the number of rounds and is poised to be an outlier in baseball history, so the goings-on are going to be fascinating to see unfold. We go over some of the changes to the draft format, talk about the potential consequences of those changes, and share our thoughts on who the Braves could be taking both in the first round as well as in later rounds...or at least who we would like to see picked.
