After taking a moment to recognize Justin Verlander's recent return to Comerica Park, Mark and Evan size up the state of the Detroit Tigers with nearly a quarter of the 2024 season now complete. How do the guys feel about the team's chances for clinching that AL Central now? The guys also talk Parker Meadows demotion to AAA, Kenta Maeda's illness, and who could be getting called up soon. After the break, Mark and Evan welcome on to the pod Paul Hoynes, Cleveland Guardians beat writer for Cleveland.com. Paul walks the guys through the surprising hot start of the Guardians, how things are playing out with rookie manager Stephen Vogt, the impact of Steven Kwan's absence and more.
