Guardians starting pitcher Triston McKenzie joins the show to discuss his breakout season, what it took for Cleveland to seize the AL Central, how he uses pitching technology during games and why he and his teammates are embracing the doubters as they gear up for the playoffs. David, Justin and James touch on Aaron Judge closing out one of the best offensive seasons we’ve ever seen, regardless of era. The crew examines what Spencer Strider’s absence means for the Braves, who could get big outs in the Dodgers bullpen during October, Luis Castillo’s new contract and reactive pitching as it relates to Gerrit Cole. Plus, Bob Gibson’s stellar start in the ‘68 Fall Classic, Tyler Glasnow’s season debut, Luis Severino’s reemergence and Kyle Bradish.
