Our newest segment, Get Out of Town, has been a smashing success and you can tell the guys are really having a fun time with this. So, we pose this question to you listeners, who should get out of town? Get in touch with us and let us know who YOU think should get their chance at the next level. You can email us at feedback@mlrpodcast.com or get in touch with us on Twitter @mlrpodcast.

Here’s what you’ll get in this episode:

Keith Elkins, the voice of the Lexington Legends stops by to discuss Bubba Starling and his early season struggles along with the re-branding of the franchise from the Astros to the Royals. New logos include a sweet looking mustache.

If you were the Kansas City Royals and could go back and re-draft the 2011 selections, would you stick with Starling or perhaps wander to Jose Fernandez, Francisco Lindor or Anthony Rendon. Way to early to speculate, but we do anyway.

Another bout of the “Get Out Of Town” segment…Can Chris Collabello’s hot start in Triple-A give him a shot with the Twins?

MLR Episode 43 – Lindor and More

by Seubs on May 13, 2013

Play

After a busy weekend, we wanted to wish all of you Minor League mom’s out there a Happy Belated Mothers Day. I know I can speak for everyone on the MLR crew that we hope all of you Mom’s had a happy and safe Mothers Day. How many of you spent it at the park? Did you have any memorable experiences attending a Minor League baseball game on Mothers Day? We’d love to hear about them if you did so please get in touch.

Here’s what you’ll get in this episode:

You will find an in depth conversation about Indians #1 prospect Francisco Lindor with Carolina Mudcats broadcaster Darren Headric. Lindor has carried over his prolific talents to the Carolina League and the question remains how much longer the 19 year-old will play in High-A.

Our newest segment, hesitantly is called “Get out of Town” and it continues as Sam tries to follow up his prognostication of Chad Becks promotion to Triple-A last week. Eric calls for Taveras to St. Louis and Jay feels Jim Negrych needs a chance

Billy Hamilton hit two home runs in a game.. but that slipped under the radar in a week that featured no hitters and 10 strikeout performances.
