Locked On Blue Jays - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Blue Jays

What can you do? What can you bloody do?

Following another game that the Blue Jays were out of by the third inning, A.J. Andrews tries to find the silver lining, but it's hard. She's happy for Joe Panik hitting a home run. There is not much else happy, especially not with Tanner Roark, who is pitching himself out of any possible playoff plans for Toronto. Plus, with the news that Ken Giles was placed back on the IL, Andrews wonders if he has pitched his last game for the Jays, but she is bolstered by the words of a friend.

Y'all knew this wasn't going to be a happy one.

The Blue Jays were demolished. Again. By a New York team. Again. While the pitching staff deserves its share of the blame for allowing the Yankees batters to tee off in a 20-6 shellacking, the fan base had one man in specific to focus their lightning-bolt hate on tonight. And he deserves it. Because time and time again, that man has failed to execute the most basic of MLB-level plays. A.J. Andrews goes off and casts Derek Fisher out.

I always called him Sniper because of Tobias McKinney from Extreme Dodgeball.

Billy McKinney is the latest player to be exodused (is that a word?) from the Blue Jays organization, and A.J. Andrews knows what this means from a few different perspectives. She goes over what McKinney's departure means for the Shapiro/Atkins haters, as well as for the health of the organization as a whole! Plus, she had a good day today, so good mood A.J. on the airwaves!

You know the one. It's not Bad Romance.

A.J. Andrews finishes her wrap-up of her time away from the Blue Jays beat due to her traitorous computer setup by talking about the new and returning Blue Jays in the lineup this weekend! She discusses everyone's favorite Large Adult Son Alejandro Kirk, the return of Bo Bichette, the potential returns of Rowdy Tellez, Teoscar Hernández, Matt Shoemaker and Nate Pearson!

This would have been so much more relevant last week...

Finally, the AL East crossover connection is complete! A.J. Andrews connects with Gabrielle from Locked on Red Sox for a lovely discussion about how the Yankees are whiners, how Rowdy Tellez keeps destroying Boston pitching, why the Red Sox have fallen as far as they have, and much more! It was a wonderful conversation, and Gabrielle will be back as an honorary Blue Jays fan in the postseason!

Communication with the outside world! How I missed it!

A.J. Andrews has jerry-rigged a solution to her computer issues and she is finally back on the podcast waves! She has a lot of stuff to talk about and she starts with a recap of the past few days in Blue Jays land. The good and the bad. Plus, she finally gets to address Tanner Roark's comments following his outing against the Yankees. She is not kind.

Right, 400th episode. That last one. Do people celebrate milestones anymore? Nah.

A.J. Andrews acknowledges the 401st episode of the podcast and the second half of the doubleheader with some pitching talk! While she worries about the various ways in which Hyun-Jin Ryu and Taijuan Walker looked vulnerable against the Yankees, once again, the bullpen comes to the rescue. Andrews discusses how Julian Merryweather and Shun Yamaguchi's respective emergences just lengthen an already dangerous unit and could provide the Blue Jays a crown-shaped key to playoff success.

Keegan Matheson will understand the meaning of the title. Ask him about it.

A.J. Andrews returns from her Labor Day away from sports and social media with the first of a happy doubleheader! She discusses how beautiful the Blue Jays' 10-run sixth inning was on Monday night, and how the Yankees are a bunch of whiny babies. She is more mature when pointing out how that inning was the encapsulation of everything the Jays have learned this season. Plus Jonathan Davis made an immediate impact in his MLB return! Andrews discusses how even these nights when the offense is doing nothing are a sign of how far the Jays have come.

It seriously took longer to upload this podcast than it did to watch the game.

The Blue Jays finally put away the Red Sox to claim the five-game series. There were aspects of the win that A.J. Andrews really liked, such as Rowdy Tellez and Lourdes Gurriel stepping up in Teoscar Hernández's absence, and Joe Panik continuing to stay hot. There were things she didn't like, such as Robbie Ray, and the bullpen still showing the strains of its workload. She talks about all of them while still fighting her computer to the death over its insolence.

The pain in trying to get these episodes up, y'all...

Teoscar Hernández is hurt. This is a bigger problem than anticipated. A.J. Andrews goes over what the Blue Jays can do if one of MLB's top home-run hitters is going to miss the rest of the season. Spoiler, none of them make up for the offense Teoscar has provided. She also offers updates on all the injured Blue Jays and when they might be able to get back onto the field. There is not good news for Matt Shoemaker.
