If the Major League Baseball season starts, how will the Phillies compete in the National League? What should fans expect from Rhys Hoskins and who might be the comeback player this year? This week, Liz Roscher from Yahoo Sports joined us for a deep dive into the contract issues being worked out by MLB and the union as well as how these Phillies might look this season.

But first, we talked about Major League Baseball's possible season return prior to Liz joining us, and how both sides are trying to hammer out an agreement that may bring us a 2020 regular season. There's optimism and pessimism. (approx. 5:00)

We then discussed how the remainder of the AHL season has been canceled. This is the first time since the 1930's that there will be no Calder Cup Champion. (approx. 15:25)

Then we gave our thoughts on the NBA's possible return after players were polled by the NBA front offices to determine if they'd want to come back to finish the season. (approx. 21:20)

This week on the Highbrow Segment, we discussed the dramatic increase in NFL ticket prices given the lack of news about whether fans will even be permitted in stadiums, if there even is a season. How bad are people clamoring for sports? They're willing to pay a ton of money to see a live sporting event. (approx. 26:40)

On the Lowbrow Segment, we've got a new top-3 list: our favorite action figure toys growing up. (approx. 39:25)

What we're throwing down on the Table this week is an in-depth interview and discussion with with Liz Roscher from Yahoo Sports! First, we dove into the contract talks between the owners and union, and what a middle-of-the-road agreement might look like. From there we talked about J.T. Realmuto's contract and how COVID-19 financial-based decisions might affect every team in terms of contract negotiations. Will Alec Bohm see a lot of action in the majors this year? Will Matt Klentak keep his job if the Phillies can't climb over the .500 win mark this year? All of this and much more this week on the Table! (approx. 56:50)
