Prep pitching is rumored to the Sox with the 43rd and 68th pick in the draft, so they go through a few of the names that will be available before moving to Carlos's feelings on the new anti-tank draft rules and how he feels about the rookie league ending in July, and the draft also being in mid July.

Baseball America's Carlos Collazo examined Charlie Condon's historic 2024 season on our latest Hot Sheet show. Hear why Condon's numbers were incredible, even in the current college run environment, plus why it's still an open question who goes No. 1 overall to the Guardians. Carlos also drops an interesting Condon comp at the end.
