Alex and Bobby talk about the Los Angeles Dodgers winning the World Series, and dissect the timeline of events that immediately followed, including Justin Turner testing positive for COVID-19 and Rob Manfred’s sea of boos. They discuss the Rays and what their postseason showing means for the #sabermetrics #movement, and attempt to determine what qualifies as a “championship drought.” Then they turn their attention to Tony LaRussa and wonder how on Earth he’s the guy for the White Sox, and forecast what’s sure to be a dreary offseason.
