Description
The Blue Jays fought back to win the series against the Giants on the back of Chris Bassitt's career-high 12 strikeouts and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s game-winning blast. Host Blake Murphy dissects the game for Toronto with Julia Kreuz of MLB.com! The pair discuss the disappointing news that no Jays will start the MLB All-Star Game, before diving into the team's current homestand and Vlad's recent resurgence at the plate. Next, Blake turns to FanGraph’s Jay Jaffe to break down his recent article "A Look at the Best Team Defenses Thus Far" and share why the Jays grade near the top of the pack (30:15). On the back nine of today's show, we take a look ahead to Canada Day weekend with the Boston Red Sox in town and tee it up from both team's perspectives with The Athletic's Kaitlyn McGrath (50:13) and Jen McCaffrey (01:19:03)!
