Ep. 98 — Alex and Bobby discuss Rob Manfred’s big ol’ middle finger to the MLBPA, where MLB’s plan for minor league restructuring goes from here, and widdle baby Astros owner Jim Crane needing cops to shield him from the Big Bad Journalists. Then, they interview… each other. Yes, seriously. They talk about the things they don’t know about each other’s baseball fandom, and discuss a baseball player as a jeopardy host and a Mount Rushmore of baseball players — among other things.
