Brewers vs. Rays, Dodgers and Guardians Post-Mortem, And The A's New Front Office Boss

Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the World Series matchup between the Rays and the Brewers, whether the Dodgers will make big changes this offseason, how aggressive the Guardians will be coming off their ALCS appearance, how playoff teams are putting an increased emphasis on defense, and what having a low-payroll team in win the championship will mean for collective bargaining. They also talk about Taylor Smith getting hired as the Athletics' new president of baseball operations, Don Mattingly staying on as Phillies' manager, the Astros parting ways with Joe Espada.

Listener question topics include if the Marlins will be willing to move Otto Lopez, and whether teams will wait until after the new CBA to sign a player to a long-term deal.
