Opening Day! CodBall Conversation with the Commish
Posted by Greg | Filed Under Codball Conversations |
To commemmorate the Cape League’s Opening Day today at Wareham, CodBall and WCAI (NPR Cape and Islands) teamed up for a new CodBall Conversation with Commissioner Paul Galop.
WCAI broadcasted the interview this morning (June 13th). And CodBall has an extended version of the interview.
One piece of news from today’s conversation was the Commissioner’s indication that a settlement appears to be imminent with Major League Baseball. MLB and the CCBL have been in talks over a license and revenue deal. See my letter to Commissioner Bud Selig.
Paul was very candid and engaging regarding former players who have made it to the Big Leagues and the teams he has an eye on this season. Tune in and subscribe to our conversations in iTunes. The conversation with Paul Galop is one of our best.





An addendum:
Rob Duca’s story in the Cape Cod Times earlier this spring reports on the MLB negotiations, which the commissioner addressed today.
