b'Halloween is a week away, but I have some early tricks and a few treats as we walk through the sports neighborhood as the latest edition has arrived! On deck:

(3:51) The stage is set as we have our World Series matchup beginning on Friday. The Phillies swept their three home games as they dispose of the Padres in five. I compare this to a recent Wild Card playoff team and how they\'ve been hot ever since the tournament started. The NLCS MVP Bryce Harper finally makes it to his first Fall Classic as I\'ll chronicle his career to this point. As for the Padres, it was a good year and one to build on, but there are a couple of question marks that need to be answered as they have to deal with their suspended star shortstop (Fernando Tatis Jr.) and the specter of Juan Soto\'s expensive contract demands looming.

(17:28) The Astros continue their postseason dominance, starting off 7-0 as they sweep the Yankees in the ALCS. They\'ve won it close. They\'ve won high scoring games. Coming from behind. They look like a team that\'s primed and ready for a championship. Then, there are the Yankees. Tons of uncertainty as the GM Brian Cashman\'s contract is up. Who could possibly be in line to take over? I have a fascinating suggestion. Also, a breakdown of the organization from the manager, some players that need to go, (including one of their younger, core players) and what happens to Aaron Judge, now that he\'ll become a free agent?

(40:35) A rather lackluster NFL Week 7 took place, but there is a huge question regarding two of the sports biggest teams (i.e. Packers & Buccaneers) as to who is in worse shape moving forward? That duo highlights my losers of the week and I\'ll share a surprising winner of Sunday as I take a look the games unfolded as we creep up on the halfway point of the season. I\'ll also share my thoughts on the Christian McCaffrey trade to San Francisco. Will his addition automatically make them a Super Bowl contender?

(1:01:34) Clemson survived a scare at home vs. Syracuse as they had to overcome multiple turnovers and their backup QB Cade Klubnik had to save the day as the pull out a 27-21 win. You had two more at the bottom of the top 10 drop out after losses (i.e. Ole Miss & UCLA) as we move deeper into this college football season.

(1:05:09) The Lakers and Sixers have gotten off to sluggish starts as they\'re both 0-3. Is Doc Rivers in any trouble in Philadelphia? How about the Blazers and Jazz? Both are off to 3-0 starts, making me look like a fool early on as I chose them as unders this year. Plus, the Pelicans suffered their first loss last night, but in the process lost Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson to injury. Is this a cause for concern just a few games into the season?

(1:08:32) There are a couple of big injuries to some high profile players in the NHL. Avalanche forward, Gabriel Landeskog will be out three months due to arthroscopic knee surgery. And Panthers defenseman, Aaron Ekblad is on long term IR with a groin injury. How much will they be missed from their respective teams?
