Baseball Insiders is back with Robert Murray and Adam Weinrib to break down a jam-packed week around the league:
⚾ Jonah Tong has been called up by the New York Mets, joining Nolan McLean in a reshaped rotation — can this steady the ship for September?
⚾ More September call-up buzz — who else is ready to debut?
⚾ Andrew Heaney DFA’d after hitting his innings bonus — why the move made sense for the Pittsburgh Pirates but also highlights deadline regrets.
⚾ Waiver wire roulette: which late-season pickups could actually swing the playoff race?
⚾ The 2026 MLB schedule is out — with the Yankees-Giants Opening Night (March 25), a super early Opening Day (March 26), Phillies-Twins in the Field of Dreams Game, and the A’s playing six home games in Las Vegas.
Robert and Adam give their takes on what’s real, what’s noise, and what it all means for the stretch run.
