Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker kick off Friday's episode with thoughts on the Blue Jays' 8-5 victory in the series finale against the Angels. The fellas dive into the highs and lows of Chris Bassitt's outing, Toronto's plan of attack against José Soriano's fastball, and what to expect from Kevin Gausman tonight in Seattle. Jeff and Kevin also look into the state of the lineup, the need for another bat to help boost the team's offense, and some potential targets on the market. ESPN's Jeff Passan (26:45) joins the conversation to chat about the state of the Mariners ahead of their weekend set against the Jays. The trio check in on Toronto's reliance on their bullpen, Bo Bichette's drop in value, the tear Pete Alonso is on, who's in line for the next mega-contract, Rafael Devers' opposition to playing first base, and Derek Shelton's firing in Pittsburgh.
