-How do GM's and front offices deal with the lockout?

-Why hasn't expansion been included in lockout discussions?

-Playoff expansion

-What should we expect when the lockout ends?

-Are baseball TV ratings up or down?

-Could MLB move on from Manfred?

-Baseball book suggestions

Those questions and more! To be a part of next week's episode call the voicemail at 646-543-7072 or email [email protected].
