Five and Dive, Episode 50: Porcelain Tower

Published: May 14, 2020, 10 a.m.

In Episode 50, Craig and Bradford tackle five more (mostly) baseball topics.

1. An offer you can refuse: Now MLB hasn't actually officially sent their offer to the Player's Association yet, but we do somehow seem to know a whole lot about it.

2. Our people will call your people: MLB hasn't officially postponed the 2021 WBC to 2023, but everyone seemed to find about it on Twitter, including (checks notes) several participating countries.

3. Boros's Law: It's like Voros's Law, but for campaigning powerful agents to Stalin. Or maybe it's like Godwin's law.

4. Craig decided that "From the horse's mouth" wasn't too mean: Mark Teixeira wants you to do as he says not as he did.

5. Chicago Fire: J.B. Pritzker has been a real Dick Wolf about the whole MLB restart.
