:: ::

"A recent proposal from Major League Baseball shows more than 40 Minor League teams could lose their affiliation after the 2020 season, leaving dozens of teams and cities without professional baseball. This week on Press Row, Christian Heimall examines the reasons for these proposed changes and the ultimate impact it could have on the organizations, cities, and the game of baseball as a whole.

Joining Christian on the show is Dan Barry, a longtime writer for The New York Times and author of the book Bottom of the 33rd: Hope, Redemption, and Baseball's Longest Game. Together the two dive deeper in to why the MLB organizations feel a need to cut ties with these teams and the economic impact it would have on their communities. They also look at alternative options for those teams and Dan gives his opinion on how the future of baseball will be drastically altered by these moves.

Christian also answers your listener questions, submitted via social media!
