Description
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker start off looking back on the Blue Jays' 7-6 win over the Orioles in extra innings. They discuss Brandon Hyde’s decision to pitch to Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in the 10th inning with a base open, Toronto’s bullpen giving up the lead, and if a trade for “swing and miss stuff” in the backend of the bullpen could happen before the deadline. Jonathan Mayo of MLB Pipeline gives the lowdown on the top prospects in the MLB Draft as they have arrived at Petco Park in San Diego for the 2022 Draft Combine. They guys then ask who might interest the Blue Jays at pick #23 (28:01)?
