Gsmc Baseball Podcast

TODAY IS THE DAY! If the players and owners cannot come to an agreement today, then there will be games missed. Patrick spends the first part of today's show breaking down what needs to be known about the CBA. These two sides are far from close, and it does not look like there will be a deadline, and Paddy tells everyone what to expect. After that Paddy takes a look at two of the most important people to the MLBPA and Free Agency. First Patrick talks to the first executive director of the MLPA Marvin Miller. Under MIller the MLBPA grew to become one of the most powerful unions in the United States, and he was able to help create Free Agency. Paddy also talks about Jim "Catfish" Hunter, who was the first "big-money free agent", and is the only person to have their number retired by the Athletic's since the 1920s.
