The podcast then discussed Jonah Tong, another exciting pitching prospect within the Mets organization. Brazowski examined Tong's meteoric rise, attributing it primarily to his outstanding fastball shape, which could evolve into one of the best in the system.

While acknowledging that Tong is seen as a favorite in the rankings, Brazowski pushed back against the hype, indicating there might be hurdles in Tong’s development that could affect his transition to the majors.
