On the latest Patrick Jones Baseball Podcast, I am talking about how to navigate the recruiting process. I talk about specific metrics needed to play at the Power 5 and D1 level, why in-game numbers matter, the pros and cons of the transfer portal, contacting college coaches, and the role social media plays in helping players get recruited.
