This week, we discuss the semi-shocking reality that the St. Louis Cardinals will almost certainly grab the second spot in the NL wild-card race (2:00) before recounting just how terribly things have unfolded in San Diego (14:00). We also check in on the AL wild-card race, Sal Pérez’s incredible season, and the hopes and dreams for teams already eliminated (41:00). We finish this week with Good, Bad, Uggla and one final 2021 METSCON (51:00).
