Episode 121: You Are at Work After the First Pitch
As pitchers and catchers report to spring training, Matthew and Toby launch Season Six with a visit from Mike Casca, Dodger fan and communications director for Sen. Bernie Sanders, for a wide-ranging discussion on MLB’s continued efforts to use the media to screw over the players in advance of the CBA expiring, juiced and unjuiced balls, the Dodgers’ payroll, and the Marlins’ plans to have 20% capacity crowds this season. Mike talks about why he doesn’t mention being a Dodgers fan around Bernie, trying to wake his kids up after the Dodgers won the World Series, the pure greatness of Minor League Baseball, and why he grew up believing his little league team gave Tommy Lasorda a heart attack.
