After the trade deadline, all the focus is on the AL West race in Texas. David believes Max Scherzer will make the biggest impact for his new team, the Rangers. James and Justin believes it will be Justin Verlander for the Astros. The hosts recap the historic day for the Astros, which ended in Framber Valdez’s no-hitter, and the polar opposite historic day for the Mets. Did the Dodgers, Rays and Orioles do enough? What does it mean that the Yankees did close to nothing?
