LCS Matchup Thoughts, Offseason Plans for Padres & Tigers

Eno and DVR discuss the LCS matchups between the Dodgers and Mets, and the Yankees and Guardians -- including the Dodgers' pitching staff going on an excellent run of scoreless innings (33 entering Game 2 of the NLCS on Monday) -- and the Guardians' series-clinching win over the Tigers from the weekend. Plus, they wonder what adjustments AJ Preller and company will make around the core returning for 2025, and the next steps for the Tigers after their run ended one win away from a trip to the ALCS.  Rundown 1:35 Will the Dodgers Ever Give Up a Run Again? 3:21 The Padres' Offseason Outlook 12:35 Keys to the Mets-Dodgers NLCS Matchup 25:58 Lane Thomas' Grand Slam Propels the Guardians Into the ALCS 37:14 The Tigers' Offseason Outlook 49:31 Jackson Jobe's Path Into the Opening Day Rotation Follow Eno on Twitter: @enosarris Follow DVR on Twitter: @DerekVanRiper e-mail: ratesandbarrels@gmail.com Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/FyBa9f3wFe Subscribe to The Athletic: theathletic.com/ratesandbarrels Hosts: Derek VanRiper & Eno Sarris Executive Producer: Derek VanRiper Learn more about your ad choices.
