Jeff Passan Explains MLB Lockout Consequences

Baseball is coming off one of its best seasons in years. But all signs are pointing toward a work stoppage that could erase all of it. ESPN’s Jeff Passan joins Front Office Sports to discuss this nightmare scenario for MLB.

The owners and MLBPA remain firmly divided on the introduction of a salary cap, but with a new TV deal on the horizon for MLB, Passan says it’s never been more important to keep momentum going.

Passan also takes us behind the scenes of his insider life, where he has broken scoops from Venice, an orphanage in the Dominican Republic, and from a plane when the Wi-Fi cut out mid-post.
