Ken’s Inside Scoop: Yordan injury, Schwarber's looming free agency, Bochy Manager of the Year case

It took until September 13th, but Vladimir Guerrero Jr. FINALLY homered at home. (Top of show) Kratz thinks he's heating up.

(3:02) Pitchers don’t usually win MVP awards, but Cam Schlittler is building a worthy case. Is it enough to overtake Yordan Alvarez? Plus, can the Blue Jays squeeze into the postseason, and just how dangerous can they be?

(16:10) Payton Tolle joined Pedro Martinez as the only other Red Sox pitcher to start a game with an immaculate inning.

(17:46) Rafael Devers will undergo season-ending surgery to address a core muscle injury, and he might not be the only notable Giant whose season ends early…

(20:27) Was Bryce Harper sending a message when he took 34.27 seconds to circle the bases on his homer on Saturday?

(22:15) Willson Contreras gave up on an at-bat while rehabbing because the home plate umpire didn’t let him get more pine tar. Contreras tossed his bat in the umpire’s direction after striking out.
