Summary

Here's everything we learned from MLB regular season. The season was in jeopardy to and no one thought we'd have a season, but it's playoff time. When we look back on the 2020 season what will we most remember? Let's start with the fighting between MLB and MLBPA (0:06). What about the amount of games? Well, 60 games is too little, but 162 games may be too many (1:15). Players need Spring Training in the worst way (7:20). Who is the best value signing in the past couple of years? He plays for the Yankees (10:05). What about the Red Sox season? Now that Ron Roenicke lasted just one season... what will that team do (13:00)? What about the Phillies and Angels? Disaster (15:00). What was the biggest takeaway? We all missed baseball (17:45). Let's get to the Wild Card round predictions! Who will make it through (21:15)? #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.
