Royally Rogue Rebuild

Put Me In, Coach!

We're tackling the subject of rebuilds - what they entail, how long they take, and some of the most successful in recent years - before diving in on one current rebuild we think just might be due to a cheating conspiracy! Plus, Carl presents us our first chapter of "Holy Shit Seasons!" and we look at the news on Acuña's injury.
