Atlanta Braves former first baseman Mark Teixeira spoke with Mike Golic on his morning radio show and later appeared with Jeff Passan and Mike Greenburg on ESPN's Get Up.
In both interviews, they discussed the possibility of playing baseball in 2020, the current disagreement over-pay, and what it would take to have baseball this year.
The interviews sparked a firestorm of angry, cheap shots on Twitter, and in at least two online written media sites. Listening to and reading the criticisms made me wonder if they were paying attention to what was said.
