Former MLB Pitcher Josh Towers and Scott Seidenberg go over the importance of the final week of the MLB regular season as the Postseason picture shapes up! In this episode, Scott Seidenberg and Josh Towers dive into the thrilling final week of the 2024 MLB season. They discuss the playoff picture, team performances, and individual player highlights as the season nears its end. Major topics include the Yankees' playoff push, the Orioles' collapse, the AL Wild Card battle, and the potential for two pitchers to win the Triple Crown. The Yankees, who are just a win away from clinching the AL East, are discussed with personal insights from Towers. He recalls how players' mindsets shift during this crucial week. While the Yankees prepare for postseason success, the Orioles have dramatically fallen, dropping to the bottom of key offensive and pitching metrics since August 21st, making Scott’s under 90.5 wins bet on them likely to hit. A key focus is the Wild Card race, particularly between the Royals and Tigers. Detroit has been on fire since mid-August, tying Kansas City for the second and third Wild Card spots. In contrast, the Royals have collapsed with a seven-game losing streak, jeopardizing their playoff chances. Meanwhile, the Houston Astros have already secured their spot in the postseason, with Towers praising their ability to handle pressure. Towers and Seidenberg also discuss the potential historic achievement of Tariq Skubal (Tigers) and Chris Sale (Red Sox), who are close to becoming the fourth pair of pitchers in MLB history to both win the Triple Crown in the same season. Skubal leads the AL with 17 wins, 221 strikeouts, and a 2.48 ERA, while Sale dominates the NL. Betting odds and predictions are key parts of the episode. Scott breaks down playoff scenarios, noting the Tigers' -370 odds to make the playoffs, with the Royals at -155. The Mariners are extreme long shots at +1200. Discussion moves to possible World Series matchups, with a Yankees-Dodgers series being the dream scenario, given the star power and history between these teams. Towers also expresses confidence in the Padres, seeing them as strong contenders for the National League title. Meanwhile, Scott shares his betting success this season, highlighting a 55.8% win rate over 369 bets. Key Points: Yankees are one win away from clinching the AL East.
