Sho Alli breaks down the Blue Jays' 3-1 loss vs. the Rays to drop the series in Florida at Steinbrenner Field. He takes your calls and texts, and gets into an offensive display from the offence, that saw the team log six hits and five walks...and only one run.

He discusses Anthony Santander starting to (slightly) turn it around, and gets into the outing from José Berríos, who gave the team a chance to win over six innings after allowing a first inning three-run bomb. Plus, with Yimi García being put on the IL, what does the circle of trust look like moving forward?
