"The Next Randy Johnson" arrives!

We're always on the lookout for the next big prospect callup, but never has one been this big! Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff kick off this week's Pipeline Podcast with a breakdown of the 6-foot-10 Noah Schultz, the lefty who was called up to make his big league debut on Tuesday, with his size and swing-and-miss stuff drawing comparisons to the Big Unit. Schultz serves as a jumping off point to talk about which Top 100 prospects could be next to get the call, from fellow White Sox lefty Hagen Smith to Tigers outfielder Max Clark. From there, the guys shift attention to the Draft, with Jason having seen Roch Cholowsky in person during UCLA's matchup at Rutgers last weekend. The talk of that Friday night game was RHP Logan Reddemann and his 18-strikeout performance, and he was among the college arms moving into first-round consideration discussed on the pod. Talk returned to the Minors, discussing two newcomers to the Top 100 and our first Prospect Team of the Week before answering a question from the Mailbag.
