As you know by now, former Atlanta Braves outfielder Gary Cooper is opening up about his decades-long struggle to obtain a pension from the Major League Baseball Players Association.

By doing so, Coop is helping to shed light on MLB’s controversial pension issues, going to bat for other former ballplayers who don’t receive any retirement benefits from what is arguably the wealthiest labor union in America.

In case you missed it, Coop and journalist Dave Mesrey joined "The Knee Jerks" podcast last night to discuss these issues and more.
