Episode 101: Spring Training Is In Bloom

On this week's episode, we begin by paying tribute to ESPN baseball reporter Pedro Gomez, who unexpectedly passed away at fifty-eight last week. With spring training beginning, we discuss the new health/safety protocols for the 2021 season, a deadened baseball, an overdue update to the MLB workplace conduct policy, and the official cancellation of the 2021 Baseball Hall of Fame induction for fans. To wrap up, we discuss moves around the league, including deals for Justin Turner, Yadier Molina, James Paxton, Jake Arrieta, Andrew Benintendi, Mark Melancon, and Ken Giles.
