In the second segment, Jeff Luhnow's boring tv interview from earlier this week turned interesting when The Athletic brought their sources into the mix. Jason runs down his thoughts from the interview and his takeaways from The Athletic article.

Episode 151 -- With the Rays in the World Series, is there any chance that A's owner John Fisher looks to Tampa and sees a similar team to his making a little extra cash and thinks, "Hey, I want some of that money, too!"? There is a world in which the A's spend money this off-sesason, but is it the world we live in?

In the second segment, Jason asks how good the Houston Astros really are, given their 2020 surge in the postseason. Could things have played out differently? He also gives his initial take on the Rays/Dodgers World Series matchup beginning on Tuesday.
