Episode Synopsis

1996 was a banner year for the St. Louis Cardinals. They made their first postseason in nine years, Tony LaRussa and Bill DeWitt Jr. entered and Ozzie Smith existed, and they drafted higher than they ever drafted before, selecting Wichita State pitcher Braden Looper third overall.
Do John and Jason like this pick? (No) There's only one way to find out (actually I just said the answer, it is no)--listening to the boys redraft the first 20 picks of the 1996 MLB Draft. In addition, they discuss the first big sports draft since the start of the podcast and also Mike Lansing briefly, for some reason.
