Bob Nightengale on the Dodgers, Lakers’ Sale, Yankees, Postseason Races & the Next CBA

The MLB postseason race is heating up, but the biggest stories in baseball extend far beyond the standings.

On this episode of the Three Inning Fan Show, Kelley Franco sits down with USA TODAY MLB columnist Bob Nightengale to discuss what’s happening across Major League Baseball. The conversation covers the Dodgers' dominance, where they might be vulnerable, Mark Walter’s sale of the Lakers and whether the federal investigation of classification of loans by his companies could impact the Dodgers, the Yankees' trade deadline acquisitions and what it said about their strategy, the Mets' collapse, the surprising Rays, the ever-excelling Brewers, the Red Sox's playoff chances, and the growing concern over a potential labor battle that could threaten the 2027 season.

If you're interested in baseball, front-office strategy, labor negotiations, franchise economics, and the stories developing behind the scenes, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
