Best Podcast in Baseball 7.31: Signs, Signs, Everywhere They're Stolen - a podcast by St. Louis Post-Dispatch

At a time when teams are usually generating optimism with fan fests and starting to sell tickets for the onrushing new season, baseball was engulfed by a sign-stealing scandal that has upended two franchises, cost three managers their jobs, and is still unfurling in real time, on social media, with the gleeful participation of active players. In a brand new edition of the Best Podcast in Baseball, St. Louis Post-Dispatch sports writers Derrick Goold and Ben Frederickson, discuss the fallout from the sign-stealing penalties. They disagree on whether the punishment given Houston was enough, and they arrive at a question about what this scandal tells us about the pressure put on the modern-day manager and if its incongruous with the power of the modern-day manager. There is also a Nolan Arenado discussion. The Best Podcast in Baseball is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
