Is baseball broken, or are some teams just unwilling to play with the big dogs? The Dodgers’ latest blockbuster contract has the sports world asking tough questions.

In this episode of The Fourteen Twenty Sports Bar Podcast, I dig into the Kyle Tucker signing—and why the outrage isn’t really about the Dodgers at all. From salary floors to shrinking parity, I question who’s really at fault and what needs to change before labor strife grinds the game to a halt.

If you care about the future of baseball—or just love a frank behind-the-scenes look at how money shapes the game—this conversation is for you. Listen in as I break down why the real story isn’t what you think, and what needs to happen before the sport gets stuck on the sidelines for years.

Settle in. Let’s talk baseball, business, and the uncomfortable truths no one else is saying.

We dig into why fans are tuning out, how contracts are shaping players’ choices, and what it all means for the future of sports.

Curious where all this leads? Tune in as we sort through the chaos, debate solutions, and consider what loyalty means in the age of million-dollar athletes.
