Show Notes

Major league baseball is embracing youth, offering massive extensions to promising prospects before they reach the big leagues. The Cubs and Mariners recently signed Pete Crow-Armstrong, Nico Hoerner, and Colt Emerson to lucrative deals, while the Brewers are finalizing a contract with Cooper Pratt. This trend allows teams to secure talent early, providing control and peace of mind, but also sets prospects up for life at a young age. Keep an eye on Konnor Griffin, Kevin McGonigle, and JJ Wetherholt, who are next in line to benefit from this trend as teams build around the next generation of stars.
