Saves underrated? Perfect Game & Driveline - what's up? This week in Baseball. Ep. 627 9.14.25- 9.15.25
Send us a text Mark went to the #mets game Friday night to see the return of Jacob DeGrom. It did not go well for the Metropolitans as rookie Jonah Tong didn't make it out of the 1st inning. The Mets are so awful lately that Mark proclaimed them dead as he did the #rangers a couple of weeks ago. That proclamation was before the Rangers went on a tear! So maybe that's the trick as the Mets came back to win 5-2 on Sunday immediately after that? Paul Skenes pulled after less than 70 pitche...

Paul Skenes pulled after less than 70 pitches in a #pirates win last week. Skenes has the Cy Young locked up so why is everyone so upset? Pirates have had a weird season - 17 shutouts, swept Mets #Dodgers, #Giants, #Tigers, #Phillies and #dbacks. They were 46-82 against everyone else. They were 47-72 if you take out the shutouts. Ugh!
#yankees are hanging in as are the #bluejays who have a sold lead in the AL East. #Brewers are still reigning as are the Phillies & Tigers.
Who has the most saves in #MLB this season. Are saves still important? Our under-the-radar stat of the week is about saves. Our stat of the week is about #perfectgame showcases and #driveline training.
