TSO Podcast #25: Merchants of the Temple

Welcome back! For our first TSO Podcast of 2022, we’ve spoiled you with not one, but two huge files that we’ve seen coming as big as a house for several years… We suspected it and it’s now factual: Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens will not enter the Hall of Fame through the main door, the door that David “Big Grandpa” Ortiz hastened to open. We suspected it and it is now factual: the owners and the players’ union would be unable to find water in the sea, this had to imply that they worked on it together.

David Ortiz joins the Immortals
First Ballot, 77.9%, the gates of Cooperstown were no match for the power of Big Papi

To take stock of the table for this month of January, which will have seen the world of baseball fall apart on almost all subjects, except the sporting aspect of baseball, Martin receives Gaétan and Bastien. It will also talk about David Ortiz, the class of 2023 and the precedent that could set the non-election of Bonds and Clemens side Hall of Fame.

We will follow up on the ongoing negotiations between the players and the league to avoid a delayed, truncated or worse season. What are the demands of the players’ union, what are those of the bosses and the League, and can we still hope that Spring Training, then the season, will start on time?
