As the calendar turns to September, the entire baseball world’s sights are set on the 2025 Postseason and who will ultimately be crowned champion. While the playoff field is becoming more clear, there are still some notable questions that will need to be answered down the stretch.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman ask one big question for every postseason team currently in the mix including whether the New York Yankees are capable of beating good teams, how the Milwaukee Brewers will deploy Jacob Misiorowski, if the Los Angeles Dodgers’ pitching staff can stay healthy and whether the Chicago Cubs’ offense can get its groove back.
Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake and Jordan take a look at the Texas Rangers surging toward a postseason spot, now just 1.5 games out of a Wild Card berth. They also highlight some notable September call-ups from the Cincinnati Reds, Seattle Mariners & Kansas City Royals and discuss the Atlanta Braves making an interesting acquisition.
