Thanks again for another successful season of @FBTpod! I wanted to ask a few questions while still fresh in your minds. What do you enjoy most about the in-season pod? Are there any segments you want more/less of? Is there anything we don't currently do that would be helpful?

Passan: What this year's final four says about MLB's labor battle -- and the game's future
