BenFred: MLB commissioner Manfred's legacy is at stake this offseason

I recently read something hopefully encouraging about Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred.

It came from New York Post baseball columnist Ken Davidoff.

Was it meant to be encouraging? Probably not. But maybe, in one way, it was.

Davidoff was one of the media members involved in a question-and-answer session with the commissioner before the start of this World Series.

Many of the questions Manfred faced understandably revolved around two polarizing topics.

Half of this World Series is being held in Atlanta, the same place the league relocated this year’s All-Star Game from because it wanted to be on the record as disagreeing with Georgia’s new voting laws.
