Ben Shulman of the "Locked on Jays" podcast joins Blake Murphy to discuss calling his first game and series for the Sportsnet Radio Network live from the Rogers Centre, if there's a concern with Vlad Jr.'s downtrend in the final month of the season, how important it is for the Jays to continue separating themselves from other teams in the Wild Card hunt, and the approach to bullpen days ahead of the post-season (04:05). Then, 13-year MLB veteran and Apple TV+'s Chris Young jumps on to share his experience so far calling games on Friday Night Baseball, the addition of replay review in baseball games, Jackie Bradley Jr.'s role with the Jays, how professional players tune out the negativity and outside noise, if Vlad Jr. can feed off of Bo Bichette's hot streak in September, and the growth of Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman behind the plate (25:48). Afterward, Host of The JD Bunkis Podcast, JD Bunkis, stops by to chat about his new show, where the trust level is at for Toronto's bullpen, the managerial differences between Charlie Montoyo and John Schneider, pitchers in high-leverage situations, and the report on Guerrero Jr. being open to sign long-term in the upcoming off-season (50:16).
