Best Podcast in Baseball 8.36: The Cooperstown Inquiry - a podcast by St. Louis Post-Dispatch

A brand new Best Podcast in Baseball is all about negotiations -- negotiating the ballot for the National Baseball Hall of Fame or negotiating the designated hitter into the National League. St. Louis broadcasters Dan McLaughlin, the television voice of the Cardinals for Fox Sports Midwest and founder of Scoops with Danny Mac, and Kevin Wheeler, of 1120 AM/KMOX fame, join the podcast for two discussions that hinge around this same thing. St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold talks to McLaughlin about his approach for voting players into Cooperstown, and then gets into the weeds on why the DH is such a big chip for owners and players, even if they both agree it's inevitably going to be in the NL. Ultimately, this is an episode about compromise -- for voting on immortality or leveraging a CBA. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
