Sho Alli and Julia Kreuz break down the Blue Jays' 9-8 loss vs. the Yankees in New York. They take your texts, and get right to the 1.1 IP from Kevin Gausman, the shortest of his Blue Jays career - what happened? Did the cold truly affect his outing that much? They chat about the offence scoring eight runs, and whether or not that's a good sign going forward. Plus, they discuss Ernie Clement and Davis Schneider needing to play every day, the late-game situation with Daniel Vogelbach and whether he should have been pinch-run for, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. continuing to have an up-and-down season.

They take your calls and texts, and get right to Danny Jansen getting the call to bat second in the lineup - he turned in five RBI, including a two-run bomb. Does the new-look lineup need to stick?
