Tim Kurkjian and Buster Olney discuss Pete Alonso’s return to Citi Field and if the Mets regret letting him go, whether Mike Elias will lead the Orioles again in 2027, Dodgers rookie Josue De Paula stepping up, Aaron Boone advocating for Cam Schlittler as an AL MVP candidate, Tony Vitello’s first season as an MLB manager, and Justin Verlander set to make one more start for the Tigers. Then, voice of the Cleveland Guardians Tom Hamilton stops by to talk about Cleveland’s sustained success, if they have the best rotation in the big leagues, players stepping up in José Ramírez’s absence, and the Chicago White Sox’s ascension. Later, Buster answers your questions during Bleacher Tweets.
