Ken's Mailbag | Where did all the starters go?

The Windup: A show about Baseball - A podcast by The Athletic

Ken checks in this week from Boston where he, along with the Red Sox and Astros are getting ready for Monday night's Game 3 of the ALCS. A series that may be suffering a serious lack of starting pitching. That's where the podcast begins and then it's on to your questions in the mailbag... -Why did MLB assign umpires with low ball-strike accuracy to the Dodgers-Giants series? -Will the Dodgers-Giants series be the catalyst for MLB to change its playoff seeding system? -Will MLB return to Europe in the near future? -Why don't the Braves get any respect? -What would compensation from the Mets for David Stern look like if he was to make the move?
