Scott Soshnick, Eben Novy-Williams and Michael Barr discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including the continuing fallout from the Houston Astros cheating scandal. MLB and its players’ union are negotiating new penalties for sign stealing in the wake of the scandal. That, however, hasn’t stopped players from other teams from speaking out against the Astros players. Nick Markakis of the Atlanta Braves, for instance, said every Astros player “needs a beating.” And some Las Vegas oddsmakers are allowing bets on how many Astros players are hit by pitches this season. Also talked about is Red Sox owner John Henry’s explanation for the Mookie Betts trade, and the two-year Champions League ban given to Manchester City for violating financial fair play rules.
