Meaningful September baseball. It’s all you can really ask for at the start of a baseball season, and here we are about to have some, Blue Jays fans! CAN YOU FEEL THE EXCITEMENT?

It's been a chaotic week for the Blue Jays, as they managed to go just 3-3 to begin a 15-game stretch against a bunch of mostly awful teams. For the time being the sky has yet to fall, but with the bunt-loving, pinch runner-hating John Schneider at the helm, that moment feels like it could come at any minute.

On Episode 113 of Blue Jays Happy Hour we talked about all those vibes, good and bad. Plus: Schneider's decisions, human nature, Alejandro Kirk, Davis Schneider, Ernie Clement, Handsome Randy, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and so much more!

Have a listen!

Or, alternatively, check out Substack’s new beta transcription feature, which should be visible somewhere on this page. I went through and lightly edited the computer-generated words into something that’s hopefully at least semi-comprehensible, and that maybe someone will get something out of. Let me know in the comments if you do, or else I may not do it again!

Audio-wise, you can find us in all the usual places, such as Apple Podcasts…

…as well as Spotify, and others. (If you’re a Google Podcasts user, I’m still hopeful that the feed will actually, finally be fixed soon! STILL.)
