Passed Ball Show #717 (2/1/2024) by johnpielli published on 2024-02-10T15:37:10Z 2-1-2024 Passed Ball Show. John opens up this program by explaining how Bill Belichick will return to the NFL as a Head Coach using what just happened with Doc Rivers, Adrian Griffin, and the Milwaukee Bucks as a precursor to what is to come. John then talks about the remaining MLB free agents and suggests how both a team and a player can be happy with their next contract. John wonders why most teams don’t include a one year opt out provision in a multiyear deal instead of a straight one-year contract.
