A Critical Tilt at the Trop Awaits

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker start the show by teeing up Friday’s series opener against the Tampa Bay Rays and why coming away with a series win won’t be an easy task. They also take a look at the Jays’ loss in the Bronx and highlight the team’s struggles against elite pitching. Then, Rays’ colour analyst, Brian Anderson (27:44), stops by to break down the keys to Tyler Glasnow’s success this year and what the Jays can expect from him Friday. Additionally, Brian gives the guys his pick for the Rays’ MVP. Later, Jays’ Manager John Schneider sits down with Jeff and Kevin (49:39) to get us ready for this weekend’s series against the Rays. He also provides the latest on Vladdy, his thoughts on the current lineup and why it’s hard not to keep one eye on the playoff standings these days. 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.
