Is it too early pick to pick the World Series winner for 2016? Yes, entirely so. But it's still a fun thing to talk about, so on this week's podcast, Mike and Chris are discussing the fallout from this year's postseason and looking ahead at 2016.
The Chicago Cubs are already the favorite for next year, according to one online sports book, so we talk about that and offer our own picks. We also congratulate the Kansas City Royals, talk about Mike's trips to Kansas City and New York, talk about the Washington Nationals manager saga and link up with our buddy Bad News Ramen for a new Three Strikes segment.
Here's a rundown of the show:
• Intro
