Locked On MLB - Daily Podcast On Major League Baseball

The Lockout rages on and Sully is joined by Locked on Tigers host Scott Bentley to rage a little themselves. They discuss how silly and sleazy some of the negotiations have been and wonder if a generation of fans have missed out on having superstars to root for with the owners having such an antagonistic attitude towards their best players. Then Sully and Scott discuss some of their favorite new ballparks, including Comerica in Detroit.

Meanwhile, listener Jeff Cohen sent in a bunch of questions including asking about Freddie Freeman joining a team other than the Braves and the Juan Soto vs. Aaron Judge conundrum for the Yankees.
