we did a bunch of fun interviews with prospects at the Futures Game but never got around to promoting them, so this

is a thread with some of our favorite moments from those conversations + links to the full interviews

#Orioles LHP @dl_hall33 is from Georgia and recently got really into duck hunting. We are very much not from Georgia and know nothing about duck hunting. Jake learned this the hard way

We already know how talented the players in the Futures Game are, so we like to ask them what they are *bad* at. #Cardinals OF @DCarls_06 gave us an incredibly specific and hilarious answer.

Position players pitching are all the rage lately. Could we see #Pirates 1B Will Craig, who threw mid-90's as the closer at Wake Forest, ever pitch in pro ball? It might not be the best idea

Wisconsin was well-represented at the Futures Game with Daulton Varsho, Jarred Kelenic, and Gavin Lux. What is it like growing up playing baseball in Wisconsin? We'll let #Dodgers SS @TheRealGavinLux explain

#BlueJays RHP @big_nate5 is one of the hardest-throwing pitchers in all of baseball. How does he adjust to throwing things when he's not trying to throw 100+ MPH? Well...he doesn't

#Mariners 1B Evan White is one of the ultra-rare bat right/throw left players in baseball. That certainly didn't stop him from playing all over the field as a kid, but it did probably cut one dream a little short...or did it?

#Orioles RHP @G_Rodriguez16 has seen some weird stuff growing up in Nacogdoches, Texas. But what's the craziest thing he's seen on a baseball field?
