Experts make first 15 picks of 2022 Draft

Ahead of Wednesday's reveal of MLB Pipeline's 2022 Top 100 Draft Prospects, MLB Network's Greg Amsinger joined Jim Callis and Jonathan Mayo on the MLB Pipeline Podcast for a preview -- including a live five-round mock draft -- as well as a discussion of what makes the Draft so much fun to cover every year.

Amsinger also regaled the Pipeline Podcast crew with stories from his career, including broadcasting the collegiate paintball championship, seeing his brother get run over on the opening kickoff of his broadcast debut and watching in horror as Eric Byrnes blindsided Harold Reynolds in the MLB Network studio.

Callis and Mayo also took a look at some of the youngest ranked pitching prospects in the game, as well as offer remembrances of baseball lifer Roland Hemond. As usual, the show wraps up with answers to a question from a listener.
