The 2025 season is a week underway and the MLB Pipeline Podcast crew is ready to take a look at how prospects have been faring, both in the big leagues and the Triple-A level. Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff kick things off by discussing the shaky start of No. 1 prospect Roki Sasaki and how well Red Sox phenom Kristian Campbell has been swinging the bat out of the gate, along with other big league performances. Then they project when guys high up on the Top 100 who are in Triple-A, including Roman Anthony, Bubba Chandler and Kyle Teel, will make it to the big leagues. Talk turns to the 2025 Draft, with Jonathan chatting with potential No. 1 pick Jamie Arnold before the guys finish things off with a Draft-related Mailbag question.

The Joys Of Opening Day
The excitement of not one but two Opening Days this week -- MLB on Thursday, Triple-A on Friday -- drives the discussion on the latest edition of the Pipeline Podcast. Jim Callis, Jonathan Mayo and Jason Ratliff begin by talking about what they're most interested in about this season, from Japanese pitching sensation Roki Sasaki coming to the Majors to top 2024 draftees playing their first full pro seasons to Phillies right-hander Andrew Painter returning to complete health. The guys also take a look at Top 100 Prospects who are beginning the year in the big leagues (such as Red Sox second baseman Kristian Campbell) and those who are waiting for the call from Triple-A (such as Pirates righty Bubba Chandler). They wrap up by talking about the prognosis for prospects who struggled in their first taste of the big leagues, including outfielders Dylan Crews (Nationals) and Jasson Dominguez (Yankees), before answering a listener mailbag question about the complex leagues.
