Road to Atlanta is our weekly podcast where we discuss all things minor leagues and prospects for our beloved Atlanta Braves. We have relaunched the podcast and it can be found in the same stream with the Talking Chop podcast, so if you subscribe to it...you have easy access to R2A as well. Episodes will go live (most of the time) every Thursday evening and will cover a wide range of topics including top performances from the previous week, deep dives into specific prospects or topics, and lots of sweet guests.
In this episode, the show returns after a long hiatus. We were wanting to do a show that previewed each minor league roster leading up to the season, but sadly Mother Nature had other plans and we haven’t had much to talk about on the minor league side. However, things have changed and Matt and Eric got together to talk about....
- the state of minor league baseball, or lack thereof, in 2020
- the Braves’ decision to extend payment to minor leaguers for the month of June
- the team’s subsequent decision to then cut a whole bunch of minor leaguers
- what we see happening going forward.
Enjoy!
