Fresh off of covering and broadcasting the Draft and the Futures Game last weekend, Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff have plenty to discuss on the latest Pipeline Podcast. They break down the first round, from the White Sox taking Roch Cholowsky at No. 1 to the Brewers surprising with Trey Ebel at No. 25, highlighting surprise picks along the way. After that, they detail who hauled in the most talent and identify the best value picks in every round from 1 through 10. Then they welcome in Sam Dykstra, who was part of the Futures Game telecast, and he dishes on the standouts from the prospect showcase, including MVP Nathan Flewelling (Rays) and dominant pitcher Seth Hernandez (Pirates). The podcast wraps up with a listener mailbag question about which draftee will be the first to reach the Majors. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Chris Cillizza and Chuck Todd open on a jolting weekend in politics: the sudden death of Lindsey Graham and the frantic — and faintly unseemly — scramble to replace him. Rather than relitigate Graham through the usual partisan lens, the guys argue that his loss, alongside the coming departures of Cornyn, Tillis, Cassidy, Durbin and others, amounts to a gutting of the Senate's dealmaking center, and they lay out their favorite framework for understanding him: the difference between "ideologues" and "politicians," and why the politicians are the ones who actually get things passed. They break down the near-term fallout for Trump, who just lost his most effective back-channel to skeptical senators and to Ukraine, and handicap the wide-open South Carolina race — from Henry McMaster's likely caretaker appointment to a crowded August primary featuring Pamela Evette, Nancy Mace, and a possible Trey Gowdy compromise play. From there it's on to two health stories the news cycle nearly buried — the mystery around Mitch McConnell's fall, pneumonia and rehab stay, and Trump's latest Walter Reed cognitive test — before a deep dive into Maine, where Susan Collins suddenly has no opponent after Graham Platner's exit and seven Democrats will fight it out at a 600-person nominating convention. Chuck and Chris debate whether Collins is now more or less vulnerable, take a spirited detour through New England blue bloods and Platner's "oyster farmer" branding, and skewer the knives-out world of political consultants. Then they close personal and sporty: their National Journal origin story, and a nerdy back-and-forth on the reinvented Home Run Derby, All-Star nostalgia, a World Baseball Classic pitch, and the Nats' latest heartbreak.

What an incredible week for the Brewers. Milwaukee went 6-0, sweeping the mighty Dodgers in the process, got some remarkable all-star news and won twice via walk-off. Host JR Radcliffe and Brewers reporter Curt Hogg discuss the shocking news of Jacob Misiorowski getting added to the all-star team (coincidentally after dominating the Dodgers?), the news that Trevor Megill is headed to Atlanta for the showcase as well and another strong start from Brandon Woodruff. Now 16 games above .500, the Brewers hit the all-star break on a high. Plus: Andrew Vaughn arrives in a huge way, Pat Murphy's decision to openly bench Joey Ortiz, Sal Frelick's injury and walk-off winners from Jackson Chourio and Caleb Durbin. In Three Up, Three Down (40:30), they talk Jesús Made in the Futures Game, Andruw Monasterio's heads-up baserunning, last year's No. 1 pick having a moment and ... Adrian Houser? In Remembrew When (54:30), JR revisits another week that could be considered the greatest in franchise lore, and Curt Blanche (1:00:15) tackles one component of All-Star Weekend. Then, JR interviews two Brewers players, including Andrew Vaughn (1:05:15), who had a sensational first week in Milwaukee with a home run in his first at-bat and game-tying hits in eventual walk-off wins twice. He also chats with Anthony Seigler (1:10:15), another newcomer who has the unique distinction of being able to throw with either hand. Music intro from bensound.com.

Join Greg (@greghoogkamp) and Matt (@mdthomp_plive) and Lucas (@theprospectprof) as they navigate news around MLB and MiLB and Prospects Live. The main topic of the podcast is a discussion about the MLB Futures Game rosters and all of the great talent headed to Atlanta.

The Los Angeles Dodgers went into Tuesday night  riding a four-game losing streak, hoping that Clayton Kershaw could get them back into the win column to calm fans' nerves. However, it was the Milwaukee Brewers' young buck Jacob Misiorowski who outdueled the future Hall of Famer, handed LA another loss and started to raise some concerns among the Dodger Blue faithful. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why they're not overly concerned about the Dodgers' recent play and what big problem does worry them if it's not fixed by the postseason. They then dive into the extremely impressive 10-game winning streak by the Toronto Blue Jays, leaving them one win shy of tying their franchise record that now sees them alone at the top of the AL East. Later in this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake and Jordan are joined by Philadelphia Phillies second baseman Bryson Stott to talk about his time in Philly, taking pride in being a batter who sees a lot of pitches and why it might take a little while for Las Vegas to catch onto baseball. The guys then close the show by discussing the home run race between Aaron Judge and Cal Raleigh, before sharing some insights on the 2025 Futures Game and Home Run Derby.(1:40) - The Opener: The Miz outduels Kershaw(13:17) - Dodgers' struggles(22:52) - Blue Jays on a 10-game win streak(30:04) - Bryson Stott joins the show!(42:56) - Around the League: Fallout in D.C.(48:00) - 2025 home run race (52:11) - All-Star Week updates Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Then Jim chats with high school lefty flame-thrower Jack Bauer before the guys shift gears to talk Futures Game in their annual batting practice home run derby draft.

An eventful week of Brewers baseball included a 4-3 record, including a thrilling debut for top prospect Jacob Misiorowski, who worked five no-hit innings in a 6-0 win. His arrival also meant an abrupt departure for Aaron Civale, traded to the White Sox after expressing dissatisfaction with his move to the bullpen. Plus: The Brewers may have just been right about Quinn Priester. The confusing nature of Freddy Peralta. The continued struggles of Joey Ortiz. An offense that still needs a spark. In Three Up Three Down (47:00), there's some tension in a battle with the Cardinals, Sal Frelick's screamer and Abner Uribe continues to shine. In Remembrew When (1:03:30), a look back to the 1980s and perhaps the buzziest pitching debut in franchise history. Curt Blanche (1:08:00) tackles a popular food item. Then, JR sits down with Jacob Misiorowski himself (1:15:15), talking his memories growing up watching the Royals, Miz the wrestler, the Futures Game, draft night and how he tops that first outing.
