HIGH CEILING? Angels hope to hit jackpot with 2-way star Jared Grindlinger
About this episode
The episode discusses the potential of two-way star Jared Grindlinger, featuring insights from his high school coach Benji Medure.
Huntington Beach (Calif.) High School baseball coach Benji Medure joins Halo Territory hosts Mike DiGiovanna and Mark Trumbo to discuss Jared Grindlinger, the 17-year-old two-way phenom whom the Angels selected with the 12th overall pick in this past weekend's draft. Could Grindlinger be a two-way player in the big leagues? Can he add power to his elite bat-to-ball skills? What is his upside as a pitcher? And why did he skip his senior year of high school to enter the draft? Medure, who just completed his 26th season at Huntington Beach, provides some answers.
