With TV absent for this week's recording, EstoBro made a call to the bullpen to bring in Tampa Bay Tay as a special guest for the episode. They open the show by discussing the controversial fashion choices made by the MLB this year with new baseball caps (1:15). The pair laugh well over the jokes made all over the internet, followed by formal introductions. Tampa Bay Tay is one of the biggest Tampa Bay Rays fans alongside her dedicated fanship to other Florida-based teams. EstoBro engages her with the ongoing dramatics that have taken place with the team and their home stadium at Tropicana Field (17:30). The primary issue focuses on the Rays playing at Steinbrenner Field for the 2025 season and the politics ownership is facing after Hurricane Milton destroyed the roof of the Tropicana Field. As the pair focuses on the positives the Rays will face for the season, it is rather apparent that the entire baseball universe wants Rays' owner Stu Sternberg to sell the team to a well-rounded group that can move the Rays in the right direction. After the bulk of the show focuses on that topic, the pair also dissect the Rays' season and how they will fair based on predictions (51:00). With new roster additions and some major players coming back from injury, they show their optimism that the Rays can play above expectations and possibly return to the playoffs. With the Tokyo Series taking place this week, EstoBro and Tampa ay Tay also look at the outlook of the rest of the league (68:15), including anticipation for the World Baseball Classic taking place at the start of next season.
