One of the biggest unknowns for any Major League Baseball club in the 2020-21 offseason is how many tickets they'll be able to sell to how many games in the coming season. Revenue talk is all the rage, and into the conversation saunters word that a casino operator Bally's Corporation will have branding rights for several teams' broadcasts, including the Cardinals, and may infuse elements of gambling into the televised games. Post-Dispatch sports columnist Ben Frederickson joins baseball writer Derrick Goold to go around the horn on four topics: the lingering effects of COVID-19 on one Cardinal; chairman Bill DeWitt's comments on staying competitive with reduced revenue; the Bally's factor; and, sliding into home, the market update for catcher Yadier Molina and pitcher Adam Wainwright. On our walk back to the dugout, we discuss Theo Epstein's departure from the Cubs and what to make of the Theo Era in the Cardinals-Cubs rivalry. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
