Bobby and Alex talk about why A-Rod’s new SPAC is the hot stock to grab, and how Kevin Mather’s comments were far from an anomaly. Then they chat with Ryan O’Hanlon, soccer writer and editor, about how European soccer’s youth development pipeline compares to youth baseball stateside, the benefits and drawbacks of club-driven development, the quirk of fan ownership, a conveyor belt of Tr*vor B*uers, and much more.
