Description

Sportsnet's Caleb Joseph joins Blake Murphy to discuss how hitters and catchers adjust to an umpire's wide strike zone, a catcher's framing skills, and whether the team would consider replacing Yusei Kikuchi's spot in the bullpen (05:59). Sportsnet producer Chris Black jumps on for an early week edition of Explain It Black and weighs in on the bullpen day's trickle-down effect after Sunday's game, who could get called up from the minors and added to the 'pen, and where his confidence level is at with Bo Bichette facing against Tampa Bay's pitchers (27:20). Afterward, MLB.com's Adam Berry looks back at the pair of blowout losses for the Rays against the Yankees, the magnitude of the final stretch of the season in the AL Wild Card race, the scouting report on probable starter Cooper Criswell, and how the Rays have taught their pitching prospects to prepare for relief innings (50:29). To wrap up, Blake previews José Berríos' upcoming start against Tampa Bay (01:15:08). 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.
