Excellent series, just finished season 1.

Great pacing and acting. Got into the social politics on the field, and added in some cartel spice.

Toward the end of season 1 there was a bunch of unnecessary relationship drama, but still great overall.

Billy Bob Thornton really sells this series.

    I overall enjoyed the story and the acting, but nearly every episode had some formulaic monologue where Thornton or Hamm explained some anti-climate change BS to a character that was portrayed as incompetent for believing in it. It’s the same formula used in all these types of shows where some Tough Man™ is always correct in every situation and any character who happens to believe in science or data, is a woman or PoC is treated like a bumbling fool. Reacher is another good example of this.
