About this episode
Today's word of the day is 'holiday' as in MLB testing was a mess because coronavirus tests couldn't be done on July 4th. Teams are mad. Players are mad. GMs are mad. How did we get here and will it ruin baseball before it starts? What's going to happen with the players who have chosen to opt-out? Could they opt back in now? MLB needed a deadline and it failed (0:06). The Washington Redskins are in the news with a possible name-change on the horizon. That isn't the news. Daniel Snyder is the news. The three minority owners of the Redskins wanting to sell is the news. And you know why that's the news... MONEY (20:35). What will this mean for the Atlanta Braves or the Cleveland Indians? Well the Braves released a ridiculous statement about why the won't change their name (29:30). Review - Hamilton (33:10). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me if I could explain the Covid injured list in MLB and whether teams could use that list to their advantage (36:50). #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
