In this candid episode of Locked On MLB Prospects, your host Lindsay Crosby reflects on the 2023 season and humbly acknowledges where he may have missed the mark when it comes to prospects.
In the first segment, Lindsay discusses the surprising development of Cincinnati Reds' SS/2B Matt McLain, whose defense and power production have outpaced expectations. Dive into the nuances of McLain's season and how he's defying projections.
Segment two sees Lindsay taking a closer look at where he may have been too optimistic. He delves into the cases of Cubs' 1B Matt Mervis and Cardinals' LHP Matthew Liberatore, exploring what might have led to their performances falling short of expectations. 
In the final segment, Lindsay examines the intriguing prospect Ceddanne Rafaela of the Boston Red Sox, emphasizing that sometimes, it's not about being wrong but recognizing the challenges of a small sample size and staying patient with a prospect's development.
