American League Flyaround: Midseason Check-Ins
It’s time to take a tour around the American League, and there’s plenty to unpack. Eno, Britt, and DVR begin in the AL East, where the Rays have surged into first place as the Yankees try to stay afloat without their captain, Aaron Judge. From there, they head to the AL Central to break down the surprising White Sox, the steady Guardians, and the disappointing Tigers. Finally, they wrap up in the AL West, where the Rangers sit atop the division and the Astros are left trying to prove they still have one more run in them.
Rundown:
1:35 Atop the AL East: The Rays Are Holding On, For Now!
6:09 The Yankees Weathering the Storm Without Aaron Judge
9:54 Jays, O’s & Red Sox Scrambling to Make Up Ground
12:25 A Case for the Blue Jays to Continue Buying
17:22 Most Likely to Rally: Blue Jays, Orioles, or Red Sox?
21:15 Key Injuries for Boston
22:15 Cleveland Pitching, Again
27:43 Can White Sox Build On a Surprising Start?
32:16 Eno’s Bold Prediction on the Tigers
38:23 The Twins Aren’t Bad: But Are They Stuck in the Middle?
46:04 What If Wyatt Langford & Corey Seager Get Healthy?
50:06 Does Anyone Still Like Houston?
