FanGraphs Audio Presents: The Untitled McDongenhagen Project, Ep. 14 by Kiley McDaniel May 14, 2019 UMP: The Untitled McDongenhagen Project, Episode 14 This is the 14th episode of a sorta weekly program co-hosted by Eric Longenhagen and Kiley McDaniel about player evaluation in all its forms. The show, which is available through the normal FanGraphs Audio feed, has a working name but barely. The show is not all prospect stuff, but there is plenty of that, as the hosts are Prospect Men. This episode waited a little longer than expected to be edited, as it was recorded last week, but with Mock Draft 2.0 coming out today, it’s a timely, mostly-draft-related discussion. 0:26 – The guys start out hot with some takes on the verbiage they try to avoid around draft time and makeup in general 6:24 – Where Kiley and Eric have been the last week or so, what the guys look for with regards to which scouts are at which games, how much rain sucks 11:14 – The guys cover the top handful of players on their board, mostly in the style that clubs use in their area scout meetings, including an interesting quirk in the C.J. Abrams vs. Bobby Witt, Jr. debate 23:55 – The guys cover some challenges in making today’s mock draft. 30:50 – Eric is uncomfortable with the future. 32:10 – A preview of this year’s draft coverage to come 34:00 – Eric’s Game of Thrones thoughts, as someone who doesn’t watch the show 35:00 – The guys shout out Dorothy Hamill? 35:40 – And Andre Agassi?
