David, Justin and James look back to the first two ALCS games in Houston and look ahead to Game 3 in New York on Saturday. The crew thinks too little credit was being given to the top two Astros pitchers as to why the Yankees offense struggled, but now, the Yankees have their top two pitchers going in Games 3 and 4. David didn’t have a big issue with the way the Yankees handled their pitching staff in Game 1, and says the pitching approach to Jeremy Peña is the biggest key moving forward. The crew discusses what allows Justin Verlander, at age 39, to reach cruise control. They focus on the NLCS as the series shifts to Philly, and how exciting it is to have stars excelling. David believes the Padres have figured out how to deploy Josh Hader, and it’s making a huge difference at the right time.
