Here's what you'll get in this episode: Jay, Mike and Nick talk about the new CBA and how it affects the Rule 4 Draft "aka the Amateur Draft". We also visit with Baseball America's Conor Glassey.

Trying to get three Minor League Baseball broadcasters who are in three different cities, in three different ballparks, CAN be a logistical nightmare. However we've got three of the best in the business in Jay Burnham, Eric Little and Mike Passanisi and they're getting it done for you! We apologize in advance for any technical difficulties with the audio. We would love your feedback though so be sure to email us at feedback@mlrpodcast.com and don't forget to please leave us a review in the iTunes Store! Here's what you'll get in this episode: Jay and Mike talk about the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees and their home stadium situation We should totally get a shirt made that says "Chicks dig the...stolen base?" as Mike and Jay take a stroll down memory lane to the late 80's when stolen bases were all the rage. My quick smells like French toast: Billy Hamilton's a baaaaaaad man on the basepaths (39 steals so far in 2012) and on Friday night, fellow Bakersfield Blaze teammate Tony Cingrani gave up an earned run (GASP!) his ERA is now a whopping 0.78 in 8 starts (46 IP). Blaze radio play-by-play voice Dan Besbris stops by this week to tell us about the Reds Class A affiliate in the Cal League. Also, Kevin Reichard of Ballpark Digest gives us the inside scoop on all of the stadium projects around MiLB. If you didn't catch this last week, here's Jay's Trenton Thunder entertaining us all.

This week we devote our attention to those in Minor League Baseball who are just tearing it up at the level their currently playing, but just can't seem to get that promotion to the next level, whether its Triple-A or even the big leagues. Don't forget to send us your emails for next week's Mailbag segment, email us at feedback@mlrpodcast.com or you can follow us on Twitter @mlrpodcast. Here's what you'll get in this episode: Jay, Eric and Mike discuss promotion in the Minors, why some guys are fast tracked through levels or why guys who are deserving aren't moved up. Terry Byrom, the legendary play-by-play voice of the Harrisburg Senators, drops by to give us an inside look at the Senators stud pitcher Danny Rosenbaum who is tearing up the Eastern League with a 5-0 record and a 0.71 ERA, yes that's a ZERO before the decimal. The Arizona Diamondbacks have a loaded Double A pitching staff down in Mobile and this week we were fortunate to catch up with the Baybears play-by-play voice Justin Shackil. It really is a shame we didn't get to see our very own Jay Burnham in this video. SUBSCRIBE TO THE MINOR LEAGUE REPORT WITH THESE PROGRAMS - NOW AVAILABLE ON STITCHER!
