Description
Sportsnet's Chris Black and Joe Siddall join Blake Murphy to discuss if Vlad Jr. has struggled this season in big moments including with RISP, his ability to hit towards the opposite field, and Alek Manoah finding new ways to attack hitters despite a downtrend in his pitches late in the season (2:00). MassLive.com's Chris Cotillo, weighs in on the Red Sox's chaotic year, how they have balanced acting as buyers and sellers at the past trade deadline, the front office's approach to both Rafael Devers and Xander Bogaerts' futures with the club, and what the Jays can expect when they face starting pitcher Josh Winckowski (34:00). Then, The Athletic's Eno Sarris, shares his reaction to Los Angeles Angels owner Arte Moreno exploring selling the team, Ross Stripling moving up in Eno's "Stuff+", how the 32-year old has continued to reinvent himself on the mound, and the different change-up release points (01:01:00). Afterward, Blake looks at some reasons why Zach Pop was sent down to the minors instead of Yusei Kikuchi, how Stripling will approach Boston's right-handed batters, and which Jays have a good chance when facing Winckowski (01:30:00).
