Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker discuss Blue Jays prospect Otto Lopez starring for Team Canada at the World Baseball Classic and if he has the leg up on the competition as Toronto's 26th man on the roster. With Vladimir Guerrero Jr. returning to the Blue Jays’ lineup this afternoon, the guys discuss if he will represent the Dominican Republic and react to John Schneider’s comments on the matter, before providing an update on Ricky Tiedemann. Sportsnet’s Caleb Joseph talks about why he likes Lopez for the final roster spot, if he’s concerned about José Berrios, Danny Jansen and Chris Bassitt getting comfortable with one another and PitchCom, and the positive signs surrounding Vladdy's return (28:17).
