One Baseball, Under the MLBPA
Description
Alex and Bobby talk about Alex Rodriguez’s liquidity concerns and how long it would take him to get to 700 home runs if he came out of retirement. Then they talk with Allison McCague of A Pod of Their Own about this year’s Dollars4Dingers fundraiser for the National Domestic Violence Hotline and how you can get involved. Finally, they bring on Eugene Freedman, a union lawyer and baseball writer, to discuss the mechanics of unionizing minor league baseball, what to expect from the league in the coming weeks, why the timeline is important, and more.
