33:04Now PlayingToday is Opening Day of the 2026 MLB season. The season kicks off with a coast-to-coast showdown (on Netflix!) between the New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants. But it’s the off-the-diamond news that’s making the biggest waves. Beyond a streaming service partnership, baseball's also now in business with Polymarket, and facing labor strife that could lead to an offseason lockout going into 2027. So, yeah, there's a lot to talk about.
In this special episode of The Deal, Alex breaks it all down for Jason, reflecting on his own participation in the 1995 MLB lockout and responds to MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred saying off-season lockouts “should be the new norm.” He also explains what he sees as the MLBPA’s non-negotiables, his thoughts on the MLB having a salary cap and why now is the best time to invest in baseball. Finally, Alex shares the baseball storylines he is most looking forward to and his prediction of who will be facing off to win it all in October.
