Toeing The Slab with David Cone

David, Justin and James wonder out loud what the Astros and Dbacks can do to get back in their respective series. Arizona will have to be the more creative team with their pitching moving forward. Who has been the best starting pitcher in October? Would you invest more in Jordan Montgomery or Aaron Nola in free agency? What’s preventing other teams from following the Rangers quick rebuilding model? The hosts also touch on Kim Ng’s future and why Craig Counsell may be the most important person in the sport this offseason. In our Yankees chat, the hosts grade producer Dan’s offseason blueprint.
