DOB and EOF are overjoyed to have baseball back! The two dish on expanded 60-man rosters and a range of health protocols (:30) before diving into Ken Rosenthal and Evan Drellich's report on MLB's operation manual. David and Eric answer 12 of the biggest questions about the condensed season (13:15), including but not limited to: Is it possible for a team to run out of players? If so, what happens (17:45); What rule changes will be implemented this year (19:45); Will teams actually make trades (25:30); How will the league handle celebrations, sunflower seeds, etc. (30:30), and how will testing work (38:00)? The guys examine details from Jayson Stark about the structure of team schedules (43:15), and discuss the shortened season's impact on Atlanta (48:00).
