Joe Maddon and Tom Verducci welcome September and the feel of playoff weather!  How are teams approaching their run to the playoffs? Joe stresses worrying more about your own team than your opponent.  Tom looks at how the Dodgers can prepare for an attempt at a 3rd straight championship. Is there a better way for teams to handle blowouts for pitchers and hitters? Plus,  the Mariners and Phillies are headed in opposite directions while the Orioles are surprisingly back in the mix!
