Mailbag: The power of Jerry Reinsdorf; How players pick translators | Nothing Personal David Samson

It’s a mailbag! Someone asked me about Jerry Reinsdorf and the power he has in Major League Baseball. This a is a fun question. He ran the Bulls during their legendary run. He won a ring with the White Sox. But, it’s been a long time since either team was that good again. (15:55) How do players pick their translators? Is this a team decision? Player decision? (27:45) Why don’t baseball teams plan to build smaller ballparks? Someone asked this because of the Oakland Athletics looking to build a new one, even though attendance has been terrible. (36:00) Someone asked me about balance as a team president. They wanted to know at what level would a situation arise that would need me to jump in with players and the front office. 0:00 - Intro 0:45 - White Sox 15:40 - Picking a translator 25:15 - Building small ballparks 33:55 - When to get involved Please like, comment and follow 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' podcast: https://www.cbssports.com/podcasts/no... #NothingPersonal #DavidSamson #mlb AUDIO ‘Nothing Personal’ is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts and wherever else you listen to podcasts. -LISTEN: https://link.chtbl.com/NPDS -LEAVE a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... -STREAM on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/15gYsXo... -Follow CBS Sports variety of other podcasts: https://cbssports.com/podcast VIDEO -WATCH CBS Sports HQ: https://cbssports.com/live -SUBSCRIBE to CBS Sports HQ on YouTube:    / cbssportshq   SOCIAL MEDIA -FOLLOW NPDS on Twitter:   / davidpsamson   -FOLLOW NPDS on Instagram:   / davidpsamson   -FOLLOW CBS Sports on Twitter:   / cbssports   -FOLLOW CBS Sports on Instagram:   / cbssports
