You know it&#39;s been a peak MLB week when the hirings of AJ Hinch and Alex Cora aren&#39;t even the most insane thing to happen around the league. <a href="https://twitter.com/gfstarr1" rel="nofollow">Gab</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/byalfrancisco" rel="nofollow">Al</a> discuss the two newly-reinstated and re-hired managers as well as recently unretired White Sox Manager-Elect Tony La Russa&#39;s Draco Malfoy moment during his arrest, and what all of these hirings mean for their various teams. They also discuss MLB handing out Gold Gloves during the Election and talk about crazy cyber-bullying incidents from the week. Later in the episode, the girls pay tribute to Celtics&#39; legend Tommy Heinsohn, who passed away on the day this episode was recorded. Heinsohn was a part of the Celtics organization for six decades as a player, coach, and broadcaster, for each of the 17 championships. Celtics Nation will not be the same without him.
