Summary

Today's word of the day is 'headhunting' as in the Yankees and Rays now have some big time beef. Aroldis Chapman threw a 101 mph pitch at a Rays players' head and that was enough. Benches cleared after the game. And Rays manager Kevin Cash did NOT hold back with his comments on the Yankees (0:06). What about the old Yankees rivals? We're talking Boston Red Sox. What did they do yesterday to stir the pot with their fan base? Well, they tweeted out a meme about the 'reset' of the luxury tax. Uh oh. Let's talk about the troubles of that tweet and what exactly the luxury tax is (8:15). What happens when a manager is 'blindsided' by a trade? Detroit Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire said that happened to him in the Cameron Maybin trade (17:47). Review - Bill & Ted Face The Music (24:30). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me about the title on a player of being 'injury prone' being not fair to the player, but more indicative of the medical/training staff and ownership (28:30). CONFERENCE CALL TIME! Big Ten commissioner Kevin Warren received a phone call from President Donald Trump about trying to get college football this fall. WHAT?!?!? Will this play any factor in the decision to play Big Ten football this fall? Roger Goodell talked about fan in the stands again. This time it was about 'competitive advantage'. He said there is no advantage for having fans in the stands.... huh (35:30)? #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.

0:00.0	Hey, hunting. Nothing personal word of the day today is head hunting. If you were not watching
0:12.4	baseball last night, you may have missed the Yankees play the raise. That's the second
0:17.4	place Yankees playing the first place Tampa Bay raise. Yes, the team with the lowest payroll
0:25.4	among the lowest payroll and Major League baseball, if not the lowest, playing the Yankees,
0:29.7	the big bad Yankees. Well, guess who's chasing who, Arita? It's the Yankees chasing the
0:36.7	raise. Three game series Yankees had lost six in a row. Critical game. They lost Coles
0:42.4	game two nights ago last night. That Tanaka going against former Marlins pitcher Trevor
0:48.0	Richards, game ends Yankees win. The Yankees win. The Yankees win. Everything's fine. Look
0:57.6	at the box score. Everything seems normal. But if you watch the game, it was not normal.
1:05.1	There was a benches clearing murmur. Can we say that? It wasn't a brawl. It wasn't
1:12.2	a shoving match. It wasn't a lot of yelling. It was benches cleared at the end because
1:19.4	so many raise had been thrown at and Yankees had been hit. The Yankees and raise have a
1:25.5	history, which is amazing. To me, the raise are like the little flea on the elephant. And
1:30.6	once in a while, you can't imagine how a little flea could actually impact the big elephant
1:35.2	or take a mosquito with a human being or a spider. When you have a mosquito bite, it's
1:39.5	the end of the world. When there's a mosquito buzzing in your ear, you lose your mind.
1:43.0	You can't sleep. You can't eat. You can't think. Well, these raise, they know what they're
1:48.2	doing. They know how to buzz around the Yankees. But it towards the end of the ninth inning,
1:54.8	a roll this Chapman through a buck one, 101 right over the pinch hitter's head, young
2:01.2	player for the Tampa Bay raise. And the raise were not very happy about it. Kevin Cash
2:06.9	got himself ejected the manager of the Tampa Bay raise. The Yankees thought that they
2:13.1	had been hit earlier in the game purposefully. And there was a small brew, ha ha. But after
