Great interview, Setup Man! And a great get with Rachel Folden. One thing, it is pronounced (and written) Alcántara (Al-CAHN-ta-ra) with the emphasis on the "can" not the "ta".
Is it me or did Rachel have the least to say about Matt Shaw, especially for being our #1. For one reason or another she came across as not excited about him. Not that he's not good but maybe not her favorite. She really gushed over some of the other players which I loved to hear. Sounds like we have some real talent in our farm system.
@@glasscabinethobbies5927 I think you should watch that part again. I didn’t get that feeling at all. I think the biggest compliment she gave him was his mind. He sounds extremely mature and intelligent based on what she said
One of the better Cubs interviews I can recall. Jonathon Long was on my radar, but he's a rare righty 1B and even there, his defense is nothing to write home about.
I really appreciate her not making up an answer when she doesn't truly know and goes off what she does know. Hopefully Alcantara can be Mets Darryl Strawberry. Guy was a lean beast. Doesn't this just make you want the Front Office to just focus on getting pitchers and bring these guys up over the next 3 years and get the window started?
The "james triantos knows more than I do about baseball" comment is problematic. "About baseball" is such a wide net its impossible to know what she meant, but its also the most memorable part of the segment. I think, in future, it would make good sense to either make a more concise comment or just leave that one out.
Fantastic video! Rachel was a great guest. This was one of the best Cubs prospect breakdowns I've seen in quite a while.
What an episode! This is an immediate favorite of mine. Well done by both Rachel and you!
Happy to hear!
Love getting to know more about the prospects and their projections. Great video and great guest on the show! Loved listening to Rachel.
Glad you liked it!
Awesome video man! Great interview and love the content, keep it up!
This Old Geezer says, GOOOOOO RACHEL!!! Keep it up!!! Another great show from this Pod! I'll be at Spring Training for my first time this year!

great episode Kyle, I really enjoyed it!!
Great stuff. I saw the piece the Cubs did on her last season, and it was great. Glad to hear a full form interview.
💪🏻💪🏻

Excellent information thanks
Great interview!
Thank you!
Awesome breakdown of our top 8. After hearing this it's obvious they're going to give the top 3 a lot of runway this season
@@Higs8091 I hope so!
Great Show!
@@Hunter-R-Hickey gracias!

Great interview!!! I really don’t want to trade ANY of our top 100 prospects!!!
I think we are going to have to! Nowhere for them all to play

@@plus790 thanks!
Not sure how I missed this
Better late than never!
A good question would be “what’s keeping them from the majors?”
Owen Caissie could hit 30-40 home runs?!

I agree, I love rooting for the current players, but I don't think we can win a world series with the current offense.
It does. Unfortunately, where do they play? The MLB lineup is so compacted. Jed didn’t plan this out very well
A little too crazy on Kevin A.
