Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the Rockies parting ways with GM Bill Schmidt, which direction the Rangers will go in after naming Skip Schumaker as the new manager, and how the ability to challenge balls and strikes next year will affect the emphasis that teams put on pitch framing. 

Listener question topics include whether we're headed for a quiet offseason with next year's CBA negotiations looming, how late-season runs by teams like the Guardians will affect how teams approach the trade deadline, which free agents could be signed and flipped next year by a bad team, and who the realistic free-agent targets are for the Orioles.
