In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts U-Arkansas Prof. Albert Cheng and Pioneer Senior Fellow Charlie Chieppo interview award-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Jane Leavy. Ms. Leavy discusses her lifelong love of baseball, and her forthcoming book, Make Me Commissioner: I Know What's Wrong with Baseball and How to Fix It, which comes out in September. She reflects on the magic of the Cape Cod Baseball League, contrasting it with today's Major League Baseball, and explores the commissioner's role since the tenure of Bart Giamatti in the 1980s. Leavy examines how labor disputes, steroid scandals, and the rise of Big Data have reshaped the game, fueling declining popularity, unprecedented pitcher injuries, and frustration among fans and Hall of Famers alike. At the same time, she highlights ways in which analytics have boosted performance at cutting-edge training centers like Driveline in Washington State. She shares candid insights on MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred's media ambitions, the sport's future, and her vision for restoring baseball's timeless beauty. In closing, Ms. Leavy reads a passage from her book, Make Me Commissioner: I Know What's Wrong with Baseball and How to Fix It.

Description:In this episode of On Stage, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred joins SBJ Senior Writer Joe Lemire for a candid conversation on the business, challenges, and opportunities shaping professional baseball. Recorded on April 22, 2025, at the CAA World Congress of Sports presented by Sports Business Journal, this keynote captures Manfred's perspective just months before major headlines about MLB's labor landscape and new national media rights negotiations. While the news cycle has since moved quickly—with fresh updates on his talks with players over the next labor agreement and signs of progress on a new media deal—this conversation offers an evergreen look at the commissioner's leadership priorities and long-term vision for the league. Topics include: Labor Relations: How MLB approaches dialogue with the players' union and lessons from past negotiations. Media and Distribution Strategy: MLB's vision for its next rights deal and the role of direct-to-consumer streaming. The Business of the Game: Expanding MLB's global reach and deepening engagement with younger fans. Competition and On-Field Innovation: Balancing tradition with changes that improve pace of play and overall fan experience. Leadership at the Helm: What it takes to guide a century-old league in a rapidly evolving sports landscape. It's a valuable snapshot of the commissioner's thinking—one that's as relevant today as when he stepped on stage.

MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred raised eyebrows by mentioning geographic realignment as part of future expansion. Chuck Garfien and MLB Network Radio's Mike Ferrin dig into what that could mean for baseball — from the Cubs and White Sox sharing a division, to Yankees–Mets and Dodgers–Angels rivalries heating up. Chuck even unveils his own realignment plan, while Mike explains how it could boost rivalries, cut travel, and reshape the postseason.

The conversation touches on MLB's current state of health, which Jon asserts is strong, citing increased attendance and ratings. They also debate the importance of marketability and communication among non-English-speaking players like Shohei Ohtani and Juan Soto.
