Happy Friday! In the first hour of our final show of the week, Matt Pauley discusses the Blues' comeback winner in San Jose to begin the season 2-0, and if there are any major takeaways from the first two games. Then we welcome in Gabe DeArmond, of PowerMizzou.com, to preview Mizzou's game against UMass tomorrow, if a win moves the needle on this Missouri team, and if it is possible for them to shoot back up the national rankings throughout the season. We also talk with Danny Vietti of CBS Sports, and co-host of the Wake and Rake podcast, about the MLB postseason and whether low payroll teams having playoff success changes the way owners attack free agency.

And in the final hour of today’s show, Matt Pauley discusses the changes in the way high school players commit to colleges. Jason Lagendorf joins us, he writes on the Illinois football team for SI.com, and he breaks down not only the upcoming game, but if they could sneak into the college football playoff, and the future of the program in general. And our own Kevin Wheeler hops in the Cardinals conversation, as it has been reported that the Cardinals want their minor league pitchers to throw more innings.
