Episode 4: The Prospects

I think the reality is that on Hartford’s whole 25-man roster, there are probably maybe two, maybe three guys who will go on to have Major League careers of any length. Could be a couple more, but it could be a couple fewer too.

And so, some of these guys are still in the prospect pile, but the truth is, most of them aren’t.

This episode, I want to introduce you to a couple Hartford Yard Goats. And while it might sound like I’m sorting these two guys into those two piles, believe me: I’m not. I’m not smart enough about this for that. And baseball’s too difficult, too fickle for that.

Both of these guys might be stars one day. But, on the other hand, maybe neither one of them will.

Jonathan is a producer for ‘The Colin McEnroe Show.’ His work has been heard nationally on NPR and locally on ºÚÁϳԹÏ꿉۪s talk shows and news magazines. He’s as likely to host a podcast on minor league baseball as he is to cover a presidential debate almost by accident. Jonathan can be reached at jmcnicol@ctpublic.org.

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.
