Few on the planet know what it is like to be the first overall pick in the Major League Baseball Draft. But Mickey Moniak does, which is why Bradfo made a point of sitting down with the Angels outfielder to get his unique perspective on life as a top selection. The No. 1 guy in the 2016 Draft goes into great detail with Bradfo regarding the trials, tribulations and lessons that led him to this point, which has seen Moniak now hit two home runs in as many days this week to continue his recent tear. Bradfo also catches up with Red Sox pitcher Tanner Houck to talk about what it is like to face guys you idolized as a kid and know will be in Cooperstown one day. In other words, how hard is it to not geek out.
