Rivalries with playoff implications + Mariners move into first & more!

Two weeks are left in MLB's regular season and the postseason picture is starting to become a bit more clear. A couple of rivalry matchups had playoff implications as the Yankees defeated the Red Sox and the Dodgers defeated the Giants. Three of the four teams currently sit in playoff positions while the Giants are just 1.5 games out of the final NL Wild Card spot. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss each series and look at what the final two weeks hold for these teams. Are the Yankees and Red Sox destined to meet in the postseason? Can the Dodgers maintain their control of the NL West? Can the Giants claw their way into the final Wild Card spot? The guys answer all of these and more. Those two series were not the only ones from the weekend with postseason implications. There were four sweeps that saw the Mariners, Blue Jays, Guardians and A's take home victories. The Mariners completed a 4-game mop and put themselves into the drivers seat for the AL West as they overtook the Astros for first place. Plus, Cal Raleigh is looking like he may just take the MVP trophy from Aaron Judge. The guys dive into every series and look at how each one affects the postseason picture. Later, Jake and Jordan recap the Brewers and Phillies clinching playoff berths. What will the last two weeks look like for each team, and how well are they positioned for a postseason run? Plus, the Mets continue to struggle as they dropped their series to the Rangers over the weekend. New York currently holds the last NL Wild Card spot, but can they hang on to it for two more weeks? Jake and Jordan talk about what they see for any postseason future in Queens. All of this and more as every series from the weekend is recapped on Monday's Baseball Bar-B-Cast.
