Summary

Dallas deserves credit for nailing his prediction for the Mets/Braves series this past week down to the result of each game. Joey's mad that people think the Mets are the clear NL East favorite now. Jared absolutely goes IN on Jameson Taillon for first unfollowing him on Twitter and now Instagram which he claims is a lot more personal. The Mariners have a 55% chance to make the playoffs after winning 11 straight and we're talking about if America's team is back. The Orioles have won 10 straight and now sit a game and a half behind the Red Sox and Blue Jays for the third wild-card spot. FanGraphs has the Blue Jays at an 81% chance to make the playoffs and the Red Sox at a 55% chance even though they have the same record which seems a little Canadian. Dallas is begging for a 0.1% chance for the A's but it looks like the folks up in Canada just aren't going to give it to them. We close the show talking about potential outfits for Jared and Dallas to debut out here in LA. Enjoy!
