With four teams left in the MLB playoffs, we wanted to cover all the bases on the Jonah Keri Podcast.

First, St. Louis Post-Dispatch writer Derrick Goold discusses the Cardinals’ wildly productive farm system, the Albert Pujols decision, and the secrets to the Cards’ success. Then MLB.com’s Jason Beck shares his thoughts on Miguel Cabrera’s lingering injuries, Jim Leyland’s decision-making, and the Tigers bullpen. Providence Journal writer Tim Britton breaks down a wild ALCS Game 2 and how the Red Sox might fare the rest of this series. Finally, on the 25th anniversary of one of baseball’s most indelible moments, Jon Weisman of Dodger Thoughts walks us through the puzzling thought process behind Don Mattingly’s moves, then looks ahead to the rest of the series.
