The Book of Joe: Gambling, Awards Week, and Kyle Hendricks retires!
Manage episode 518960810 series 2507427
Hosts Joe Maddon and Tom Verducci discuss the gambling issues that have found their way into Major League Baseball. Leagues try to keep gambling away from the teams and players while bringing it closer to the sport as a sponsor and advertiser. Tom notes how fans are not only upset about their team losing, but losing money changes the civility in sports. We move onto the Padres hiring a new manager without any previous experience. Joe explains how we've seen a culture shift in most things that used to value experience and wisdom. It's Awards Week and we debate who is the MVP. Plus, Joe comments on Kyle Hendricks announcing his retirement.
