Description

The Blue Jays had an off-day yesterday, but still managed to gain some ground in the Wild Card race thanks to the Kansas City Royals. Host Blake Murphy is joined by The Athletic’s Kaitlyn McGrath to discuss what the Jays need to do keep that momentum going and separate themselves from the teams chasing them. Next up, Jonathan Mayo of MLB Pipeline and MLB.com offers some insight into some of the Jays' top prospects and some of the big names drafted this year, before sharing what his book “Smart, Wrong, and Lucky: The Origin Stories of Baseball's Unexpected Stars” is all about (31:10). In the second hour, Sportsnet Blue Jays Producer Chris Black checks in for his weekly hit to go over some of the Jays’ latest trends and numbers as they head into this week's fun slate featuring the Phillies and Reds (51:25). Blake closes today show with FanGraphs contributor Michael Baumann, who discusses his latest piece on tonight's starter Yusei Kikuchi, and helps preview some of the pitchers Toronto might face this week (01:20:37). 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.
