Mets' surge, Cruz's power, NL ROY race, Kevin Frandsen interview

Tony Gwynn Jr. and Ben Davis discuss Zack Greinke’s comments after his first start with the Astros (1:49), if the Mets’ surge can turn into a playoff run (5:22), if newly-acquired Cubs catcher Jonathan Lucroy will be difference-maker amid Willson Contreras’ absence (10:44) and whether the Dodgers’ walk-off magic will carry over into October (14:22). Later on, they dig into the Yankees’ historic power numbers (18:06), why the Red Sox (21:13) are slowly falling out of the playoff race, Nelson Cruz’s insane bat speed in Minnesota (23:23) and the suddenly-intriguing National League Rookie of the Year race (27:25). To wrap it up, they chat with Kevin Frandsen -- the former major-league infielder-turned-Phillies radio analyst -- about why Philadelphia been plagued with inconsistency this season (30:45).
