Podcast: MLB August Update with Gerry in Piscataway (08-27-19)

Gerry in Piscataway re-joins Dave for our latest MLB Update show.  On this edition we focus on the two teams at the top of the standings: the Yankees in the AL and the Dodgers in the NL.  Both teams went head to head in Los Angeles over the weekend, and the Yankees virtually dominated the whole way.   What went wrong for the Dodgers during the weekend showdown and is this a sign of the flaws to come in the postseason, or was it just a bad few days in an otherwise big season?   Later we look at nuances with both teams' fanbases and try to gain perspective for what both clubs have in the postseason.  Certainly both rosters are loaded with depth and Gerry will break down the Yankee injuries while Dave looks at ways the Dodgers can work around a terrible bullpen and put their excellent starting rotation to its advantage.   Plus other topics such as the terrible Players Weekend uniforms, players perhaps going too far showing up umpires, and a look at the wild card chases in both the AL and NL.
