Blake Murphy is joined by Blue Jays analyst and former catcher, Caleb Joseph, to discuss what is sustainable about the Jays recent success, what Ross Stripling’s return has meant, how Kevin Gausman can steer through waves of bad luck, initial impressions of Mitch White, and the challenges of being a back-up catcher (8:00). Former Jays manager, John Gibbons, joins Blake to break down what convinced him to get Twitter and start “The Gibby Show”, gauging the importance of analytics, where the Jays focus is or should be, thoughts on the MLB’s new schedule, and what he misses about Toronto (25:00).

FanGraphs managing editor, Meg Rowley, joins Blake to talk about the new Julio Rodriguez extension and long-term contract structures, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette having down years, Gausman’s quirky season, and the direction of the FanGraphs mobile app (01:16:15).The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
