The Prospect Warehouse Podcast goes inside the journey of one of the most intriguing young pitching prospects in baseball.
Tim Kanak (@fantasyaceball), Darren “Doc” Eisenhauer (@DocEisenhauer) and Jon Anderson (@JonPgh) sit down with Washington Nationals pitching prospect Travis Sykora, ranked #25 overall in Tim Kanak’s prospect rankings, for an in-depth conversation about his journey from amateur baseball to professional pitcher.
Travis Sykora opens up about what it was like becoming a professional baseball player, his unforgettable MLB Draft Day story, and what goes through the mind of a young player suddenly realizing his dream of playing professional baseball is becoming reality.
The conversation also gets deep into the most important part of Sykora's development: his pitching arsenal. We discuss his fastball, breaking pitches, secondary offerings, velocity, pitch development, how he attacks hitters, and what makes his profile so intriguing for both MLB scouts and dynasty fantasy baseball managers.
And then there's the comeback.
Sykora talks candidly about Tommy John surgery, the rehabilitation process, the physical and mental challenges of returning to the mound, and what he's learned about pitching and himself throughout the recovery.
