We talk the red-hot Phillies claiming the NL East lead from the Mets, what’s happened to New York and whether their upcoming schedule gauntlet can be overcome, why Bryce Harper should absolutely be considered in MVP talks, whether names like Fernando Tatis Jr. or Max Muncy are deserving of the award as it stands right now, the Rays overtaking the Red Sox for the top spot in the AL East, whether or not Boston is suffering from the effects of an inactive trade deadline, the Yankees and Blue Jays playing catch up (and whether they can actually keep up), the Braves being a team to watch out for, why the Mariners deserve a tip of the cap, whether the Reds can stay hot and edge out the Brewers, why the Padres should feel lucky (but not too lucky) and much more. Enjoy!
