The Baseball Barista with Hunter Pence & Grant Brisbee is back for another cup of hot baseball takes and thoughts. The guys are going to talk about Vlad Jr going for the Triple Crown, if clinching a playoff spot too early is bad and rooting for chaos with the Wild Cards. The Toronto Blue Jays are on fire and are being led by possible Triple Crown winner Vladimiir Guerrero Jr. There is a chance that Vlad Jr could win the Triple Crown and still not win MVP cause of the season Ohtani is having. Robbie Ray is another guy who has really been on fire for the Blue Jays. The guys break down the other Wild Card races and how they are kinda rooting for chaos at the end. They talk about how the Cardinals seem to always sneak back into things later in the season. The Cards are once again led by Adam Wainwright, who just keeps getting better with age. They talk about how Buster Posey is back and is a big face of baseball and most likely a Hall of Famer. They talk about if clinching a playoff spot or division is a good or bad thing.
