We’re about to enter the final week of the MLB season and the sprint to finish looks exciting. Sure, there are fewer playoff spots up in the air than the past two years, but there are still some things to determine and a few postseason award cases that could be helped by a strong finish.

So on this week’s podcast, we’re talking about things we’d like to see happen in the final week of the season. These aren’t predictions, rather how we’d like to see some of the major storylines play out. A wish list, you might call it.

Joining us for this discussion is The Stew’s Mark Townsend, who makes his podcast debut. We’re also got a new Three Strikes segment with Bad News Ramen, Yogi Berra talk and even an important question about Darth Vader.

Here’s a full rundown of the show:
• Intro
• How we’ll remember Yogi Berra
• Who’s the greatest living Yankee?
• Roundtable: What we want to see happen in the final week of the season w/ Mark Townsend
• Three Strikes w/ Bad News Ramen on Bruce Rondon, Zito vs. Hudson and Yogi Berra
• Important questions about “effort level” and Darth Vader watching football.
