Description
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 3-1 loss to the Royals at Rogers Centre. They take your calls, and dissect the offensive performance from the top five Jays hitters against a Royals pitcher who has spent the majority of his time pitching in Double A. They get to the quality of the ABs, and discuss what they like and dislike about the new batting order. Plus, they break down what they saw from Kevin Gausman, the approach at the plate from Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and hear the explanation from John Schneider on why Anthony Banda was used in high leverage. 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.
