Welcome to a special edition of Nothing Personal with David Sampson.

I am David Sampson.

And I've been spending weeks, really months trying to think about how do we get baseball

back?

Baseball is such a rhythmic sport.

And without baseball, it doesn't feel like May.

It can't be Mother's Day.

It can't be that summer is starting with Memorial Day weekend in a couple weeks.

Memorial Day, when you are in baseball, that's when you start to think, well, we're two months

in, are we delusional?

Does our team have a chance?

Should we think about adding?

Should we think about shedding payroll?

How we doing with injuries?

All sorts of things you're getting ready for the amateur draft.

There is a rhythm to the schedule that has now all but disappeared as we spend our second

month without baseball.

So I've been taking a look for the last couple of weeks at what I would do.

How would I start baseball again?

What would it look like?

Because what we've read and what we've seen and what we've heard, there's not enough

meat to any of the proposals that we've seen or read about or that have been speculated.
