Consulting Fixes Everything (feat. Evan Drellich)
Alex and Bobby discuss favorites for the Mets’ upcoming talent show, break down the news that MLB is lobbying to exclude minor leagues from minimum wage law in Florida, and take stock of the results of the official Tipping Pitches Fans Union Survey (thanks to listener Owen for putting it together!), then talk to The Athletic’s senior MLB writer Evan Drellich about his new book “Winning Fixes Everything,” including the reporting process for the book, how the Astros have influenced other front offices, how consultants took over baseball, ill-advised X-ray machines, and more.
