Ken's Mailbag | Experienced managers, the Cardinals quick exit and the Rays reuniting with Rasmussen
About this episode
Ken starts the show with the background behind Drew Rasmussen's return to the Rays before his ALDS Game 3 start. Then it's on to your questions...
-Why doesn't MLB use more tie breakers when deciding playoff teams?
-Will Nolan Arenado ever hit in the postseason and will the Cardinals be back next year?
-Will Tony La Russa and Dusty Baker's success lead to more experienced managers like Buck Showalter returning to the game?
-A Premier League fan from the UK questions why baseball doesn't do away with Interleague play?
-Is starting all games on the final day of the season too much at once?
