The Welcome to episode 812 of the sleeper in the bus. It is Tuesday, May 19th. I'm your host Paul Spoor joined by Justin Mason.

Justin, good morning. Good morning. How are you doing today? I'm doing all right. I'm feeling like baseball's going to come back and hopefully soon and that's going to be good thing, you know, good for all of us. You know, not only just those of us in the business but just fancy baseball players in general it would be nice.

It would be lovely. I don't agree with you.

Why?

I am less confident than ever.

Because any time you start to look at the logistics,

it doesn't make any sense and you know with like first off do we even

know everyone would play I don't know that everyone would be down to play under the rules that they're coming up with.

The testing that they're going to try to do, can they execute it? What happens when somebody invariably gets it? Do you quarantine a whole team? Do you

quarantine select people? It just doesn't really, I mean it just doesn't really add up. I just don't see how it's going to work. I want to I want to be on the side I want to get there

I can't get myself there Justin and like I said I'm as I'm as pessimistic as ever

about it unfortunately. Yeah I think they're going to figure it out it sounds like

there are players within the Union that really want to play.

I know there's probably going to be people who are last to like that maybe like completely

skip out on spring training or whatever the spring training is going to be

and kind of wait and see and that's going to be really difficult especially if there's big name players

you know if Mike Trout who has a wife who's pregnant I think in like August big name

players, you know, if Mike Trout, who has a wife who's pregnant, I think, in like August,

decides, hey, I'm gonna wait a little while before I,

you know, where do you end up drafting him?

It's, that's to be a little difficult but

ultimately I think the vast majority of players want to get on the field and want to get paid
