Starkville | Javy’s magic, Joe West’s reign and drafting baseball’s elite young talent

Jayson and Doug welcome Ken Rosenthal and Britt Ghiroli to Starkville for a roundtable discussion on the season’s first two months. They draft the game’s best young players and try to figure out how MLB can help them and everyone else in the game shine.

Javy Baez was once one of the games elite young players. He’s still a magician as he showed with his steal of first base in Pittsburgh. Joe West has been an umpire for longer than anyone ever. Doug has stories and Jayson has stats to mark West’s big milestone.
