In the first hour of tonight’s show, Matt Pauley discusses the Texas Rangers winning their first ever World Series after they defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks in five games. Matt is joined by Dan Szymborski, senior writer at FanGraphs, and Levi Weaver, MLB writer at the Athletic, to discuss the World Series and the MLB offseason. How critical were the roles of Jordan Montgomery and Bruce Bochy to this Rangers team? What can we expect of the Cardinals this offseason? Matt and guests discuss in this hour of Sports Open Line.
