In a very special edition of the Bar-B-Cast, Jordan Shusterman joins Jake Mintz in person in the Yahoo NYC studio to record the pod. The two recap the Tokyo Series between the Dodgers and Cubs and continue their preview series by looking at the AL Central. Jake and Jordan marvel at the Dodgers domination of the Cubs while also pointing out some potential red flags for LA this season. The two then dive into a truly unpredictable AL Central in 2025.
