LCS Matchup Thoughts, Offseason Plans for Padres & Tigers
Description
Eno and DVR discuss the LCS matchups between the Dodgers and Mets, and the Yankees and Guardians -- including the Dodgers' pitching staff going on an excellent run of scoreless innings (33 entering Game 2 of the NLCS on Monday) -- and the Guardians' series-clinching win over the Tigers from the weekend. Plus, they wonder what adjustments AJ Preller and company will make around the core returning for 2025, and the next steps for the Tigers after their run ended one win away from a trip to the ALCS.
