The Blue Jays just split four games with the Angels and are now headed to Seattle with their playoff hopes very much alive, but in need of more wins. Over the last week Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has continued to be in a funk, but he’s been picked up by teammates all over the place — guys like Alek Manoah, who has found another gear in his last few starts, George Springer, who has won two straight AL Player of the Week awards, and Teoscar Hernández, who needs more love (and maybe a contract extension!).

On this week’s episode of Blue Jays Happy Hour we talk about all that, plus Ross Stripling’s injury, Steven Matz’s effectiveness, Julian Merryweather, Nate Pearson, the fraudulent Mariners, and so much more. Have a listen!
