Summary
In this episode we learn who won the Rule 5 prediction contest and why Drew blames the White Sox for losing. More importantly, we discuss twelve players who haven't yet been living up to their prospect hype but who we believe will improve significantly and are worth picking up in a trade or draft this off-season. One quick correction from last episode, this is the 44th episode hosted by Chris and Drew. Fun fact from baseball history, 44 was worn by Al Downing, the pitcher who surrendered Hank Aaron's 715th home run. By the way, Hammerin' Hank also wore number 44.
