Will Middlebrooks Joins The Show! Will There Be A 2020 Season? (05/26 Fantasy Baseball Podcast)

A few weeks ago, we had former Marlins President and host of Nothing Personal David Samson on the show to discuss the MLB proposal so we thought it was time to hear a former player's perspective! We start off asking Will Middlebrooks what the biggest hurdle is at this point (3:50) and what the concern level is for current players. ... What would Will do if he were the owners or head of the players union (7:16)? ... Will the shortened season be tougher on hitters or pitchers (11:05)? Will the pitchers have enough time to get ready for the season? ... What are Will's thoughts on the universal DH (13:09) plus why would they ban the high-five? ... Will stud players still play everyday in the shortened season or will they rest more (16:30)? How about if there are doubleheaders? ... With teams set to face just their division and the same geographic division in the opposite league, whom does that favor (21:06)? What would Will's approach be in a shortened season? ... What are his thoughts on the cheating scandals surrounding the Houston Astros and the Boston Red Sox (25:56)? ... How would Will Middlebrooks describe Mike Trout in his own words (29:43)? ... What's the deal with the Red Sox mascot (35:30)!? We end the show answering your questions! ... Email us at fantasybaseball@cbsi.com.
