DEBATE: Cleveland Guardians Hitting Issues GLARING; Blue Jays in World Series | Righting the Ship

With several ex-Cleveland Guardians on the Toronto Blue Jays headed to the World Series, do the Guardians struggle more with identifying hitting talent or developing it? Justin Lada and Jeff Ellis dissect the Guardians' talent identification process and what is working for other teams and what isn't for the Guardians. We also discuss why internal improvement will be more improtant than free agency, with Ellis boldly claiming "Free agency is a sucker's bet." The show wraps up with the intriguing signing of 6'6" right-hander Luke House from Ouachita Baptist University.
