With less than two weeks until the start of the 2024 MLB Postseason, things are finally starting to fall more in place. However, that doesn’t mean that everything is set in stone just yet. The NL and AL wild card teams are taking a turn for the more exciting and we here on the Baseball Bar-B-Cast are ready to break it all down for you.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the latest news regarding what the postseason picture might look like, including the how surging New York Mets are now tied with the Arizona Diamondbacks for second in the NL Wild Card picture, the Atlanta Braves taking a brutal loss against the Cincinnati Reds and the Detroit Tigers making a strong play to get into the dance come October.
Also on this episode, Jake and Jordan draft all the possible playoff teams’ rotations from most impressive to least, and they try to figure out which pitchers will be in or out of their respective rotation. The guys then talk about Juan Soto hitting his 200th career home run, as well as homering in his 30th MLB park, Victor Robles’s extremely questionable call to try and steal home and Jose Altuve getting ejected after taking off his shoe and sock.
