The Jays drop the series finale in Baltimore, bringing their record to 1-5 this season against the O's. Host Blake Murphy sorts through the numbers with MLB.com’s Julia Kreuz, who helps break down what this means for Toronto and when the turnaround fans are expecting could finally arrive. Next, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post takes a step back to discuss some of MLB Commissioner’s Rob Manfred’s comments Thursday that didn’t sit well with people, especially in relation to the Oakland A’s situation and Pride Nights around the league (33:00). In the second hour, former MLB manager Bobby Valentine checks in to gives us his perspective on Shohei Ohtani, the Texas Rangers, and some of the issues the Jays have faced this season (49:55). Blake closes the week by heading to Arlington with Lexi Weaver, writer for The Athletic and The Windup, who shares the state of the Rangers heading into this weekend's matchup against the Blue Jays (01:15:15).
