48 | Yankees Call Up The Kids; Now or never for the White Sox?

Toeing The Slab with David Cone

David, Justin and James examine what it takes for teams to get through the “dog days.” David believes the Yankees calling up young players from AAA may help the struggling veterans. The crew recaps Verlander/Cease from Tuesday night, looks ahead to whether this next week will be “the week” for the White Sox, and handicaps the race in the AL Central. Do the Dodgers have enough starting pitching depth for the playoffs? Why can’t more teams operate like the Braves? Do the Giants and Red Sox still have a chance? Plus, a look at the new playoff format, and some love for Brady Singer and the Royals.
