We are BACK, welcome to the return of the Road To Atlanta podcast. We had to go a man down with Gaurav out this week, but our fearless host Eric Cole rallied the troops and Matt and Garrett joined him for a discussion of the minor leagues. With the recent Rule 5 draft there was plenty of things to talk about, with 40 man roster additions and a couple of minor league selections going down for the Braves. We also said goodbye to a few long time Braves prospects who may be leaving us in free agency and where they may find themselves in the coming season. The biggest news in the minor league circuit was the proposed contraction of 42 minor league teams, and we had a lengthy discussion about our concerns, minor league salaries, and the impact this could have on minor leagues players for the future. Enjoy!
