“It’s just a lot of guys doing a lot of hard work, a lot of travel, a lot of hours on the road,” Kris Kline, Washington’s Assistant General Manager & Vice President, Scouting Operations told MASN’s Dan Kolko of the work he and the rest of the Nationals’ scouting staff do to prepare before each year’s draft.
Multiple phone calls daily with Assistant Director of Amateur Scouting Mark Baca, talking about who they like, continuing a dialogue about who they think they might select, before they return to D.C. and meet with the rest of the Nats’ brass, and share their thoughts and build a draft board.
