Disgraced former Houston Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow takes the reigns of a cherished, but downtrodden, professional soccer team in suburban Madrid. But can the man who built a championship baseball team by mining in the depths of Central and South American talent do the same by recruiting young African soccer players? And will Luhnow's controversial leadership style be accepted in a town steeped in tradition? Reporter Josh Lewin has the second act of Luhnow's surprising second act.
