Eric Samulski (@SamskiNYC), Scott Pianowski (@Scott_Pianowski), and D.J. Short (@djshort) break down recent news, including injuries to Grayson Rodriguez and Mike Trout and the promotions of Tyler Black and Jordan Beck. Then, they analyze the recent Yahoo!

Plus, where did early-season stars like Gunnar Henderson, Shota Imanaga, Ranger Suarez, CJ Abrams, and more get drafted, and how different did the top 100 picks look one month into the season?
