Kevin, Anthony, Bob, and Russ discuss the Houston Astros’ decision to fire their manager and GM in the wake of being caught in a cheating scandal. The guys then break down whether the Phillies made the right move in arbitration with JT Realmuto and if John Middleton believes in the direction of the team. They then dissect the PR snafu of Doug Pederson’s coaching staff assurances and firings a day later, whether or not Jeffrey Lurie is meddling in football operations and if he should be. They offer their thoughts on what the team should do at OC. The guys then preview the National Championship game and reflect on the Sixers’ recent stretch.
