Alex Rodriguez and the Legal Definition of Racketeering

1–2 minutes

Alex and Bobby reflect on the legacy of Hank Aaron and wonder whether it’s possible for him to be…underrated? Then they dive into some free agent news — hello, Toronto Blue Jays! — and probe the Baltimore Orioles in their quest to screw over their players. Then they talk about Jared Porter and what comes after his firing (cw: sexual harassment), as well as Ken Rosenthal’s backwards column about Trevor Bauer. Finally, Alex Rodriguez sees rackets some teers and bezzles some ment.
