Willie, Ryota, and Drew talk with Joe about everything from the cuisine in Clinton, Iowa, to being minor league teammates with the 2020 AL Rookie of the Year and a current top 5 prospect in baseball.

Joe delivers insights into how he was able to stay fit and fresh during quarantine with no minor league season, including his dad needing a cortisone shot after he became Joe’s defacto trainer last year during the lockdown.

He also talks about his draft night experience being drafted in the second round in 2016. It involved almost not hearing his name called and a massive stampede to get in front of a TV after someone tripped over the TV plug in his garage.

Joe Rizzo and the guys also talked about coaches that have helped him in the minors, the funniest guys in the Mariners system, and much more.
