The playoffs are looming and the Cubs are busy packing up to go home, but David Brown is here to talk about the tight wild card races in both leagues, and other important stuff like how the Cubs could pacify their fanbase simply by fixing three of their four uniforms. The home pinstripes are great, but the rest of them kind of suck. We have ideas. As for the wild card race, the tiebreakers are stupid and unnecessary, and you’ll be amazed by how much the White Sox ineptitude has impacted not just the American League wild card race (there’s a reason three AL Central teams are still in it) but even the NL wild card. Plus, we look ahead at what kind of changes Craig Counsell is likely to demand and how Jed has painted himself into a corner with his roster. All that, and more.
