Yankees Podcast: Scott Reinen

Scott Reinen of Bronx Pinstripes joined me to talk about everything the Yankees need to figure out before the postseason.

There are only two weeks left in the regular season, but the Yankees still have a lot to figure out before the postseason. Between setting up the postseason rotation, sorting out the postseason roster and figuring out who will be in the postseason lineup, the final 16 regular-season games will be eventful.

Scott Reinen of Bronx Pinstripes joined me to talk about the Yankees’ recent lineups and bullpen management if they’re trying to win home-field advantage in the postseason, which ALDS opponent would be the easiest for the Yankees, the return of Luis Severino, Dellin Betances and Giancarlo, who should be in and out of the postseason lineup and what Yankees fans should be worried about the most heading into October.
