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

A beacon of positive energy, at least while the Bubli is still here, it's another week of the podcast!

Host Ryan Andrews does their best to highlight what they liked from the Blue Jays' series against the White Sox, starting with the mostly good in Aaron Sanchez's outing... aside from that one inning. They also discuss the progression Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has made hitting in the two-spot, and the hope that follows.

However, much like Marcus Stroman on Saturday, the slacking offense is just too much. There is no positive energy to be had as a whole and Andrews agrees with Stroman on just how the situation has gotten, and how the Blue Jays not letting him finish as many innings as he can is not conducive to anything good this season.

What I put here doesn't matter! Socrates Brito is gone!!!

Yes, Blue Jays Fan Friday on the podcast begins with the news that the Blue Jays have made a flurry of moves, key among them being that Socrates Brito is off the team. Ryan Andrews discusses what bringing Jonathan Davis and Javy Guerra on board add to the team, and how they will cope with Clay Buchholz joining a rotation's worth of players on the IL. Also, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s move up to second in the order gets discussed as well.

In the second half, the fans chime in with what they would want to see to improve the experience of watching a Blue Jays home game this season.

Almost to the end of the week, and this podcast will help get you there!

Ryan Andrews is dismayed at the complete lack of effort put for by the Blue Jays against the Twins and expresses their exasperation at what happened in the Minnesota series. Charlie Montoyo's comments are echoed, but enough talk. The host wants to see some results on the field.

The second half discusses the demotion of Thomas Pannone and who could take that spot on the Blue Jays 25-man roster. Andrews teases names like Ben Revere and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. before settling on a fifth starter who might actually be able to throw six innings a night for the Jays. And that is all they need.

This is not a happy podcast, for many reasons, but it's a podcast that needs to be.

Host Ryan Andrews spends the first half discussing another anemic performance at the plate from the Blue Jays, but does give praise to Aaron Sanchez for a solid start. The second half is spent discussing Addison Russell's return to MLB and how everyone involved has been disgusting, from Russell, to the Cubs front office to a certain subsection of Cubs fans. It's very disheartening.

These are times that try the souls of Blue Jays fans, but they do not keep the podcast away!

Ryan Andrews realizes that things could get worse after an anemic Blue Jays performance against the Twins on Monday night. They call out the offense, they call out the defense, they call out Marcus Stroman, the only facet of the team spared is the bullpen. It is not pretty.

Then, they focus on a Jonas Birenbaum tweet suggesting Jonathan Davis deserves MLB playing time. The host agrees and with the help of JftC writer Roy Widrig, explains just what the outfielder can bring to the team instead of Socrates Brito (Hint. It's a lot).

Back to chase away the Monday blues, it's another great podcast episode!

Ryan Andrews does their best to get through a discussion on the Texas series without devolving into another rant, but fails when talking about Starter Thomas Pannone as opposed to Reliever Thomas Pannone. The starting pitching takes its lumps in this one.

Then the host previews tonight's game against Minnesota, with Marcus Stroman aiming to bounce back. Andrews warns of Martin Perez and his new cutter, and expresses hope that the Blue Jays learned enough from their first bout to establish a strong start to this homestand.

Like the oasis in the desert, Blue Jays Fan Friday is here after a pretty dismal week!

Host Ryan Andrews discusses the notion that like Bryce Harper, the tide is already turning on Vlad Jr. and some people want him back in Buffalo. This is silly, and the fans help reason why. Also, the entire hellspawn of the Angels series is discussed, including Aaron Sanchez's comments. Andrews also offers their thoughts on who should be brought up to immediately replace Alen Hanson.

Keep awake now! There's another episode of the pod on the horizon!

Ryan Andrews does their best to keep an even keel as they discuss what the heck happened in last night's Blue Jays contest. More mistakes than the host on a ballet category on Jeopardy! But there was some good, and they find it.

Before that though, Vlad Jr. isn't playing tonight! Sounds the alarms! Andrews explains why Vlad Jr. getting the night off is not only normal, it could be what he needs, before they plead with Aaron Sanchez to not walk four batters in a game this time.

We are coming in hot today on the podcast! The late night fires are stoked!

Ryan Andrews goes off on the recent Ken Rosenthal report that the Blue Jays are looking to trade Justin Smoak, Aaron Sanchez and Marcus Stroman. The host tears a strip off the front office for even thinking about trading all three of them, when really only two of the three should be put on the market.

The second half deals with last night's loss in Anaheim, and how it was actually a good baseball loss for the team. It does, however, highlight the need for the Blue Jays pitchers to get healthy quickly.

Following up last night's show, we continue to bask in the Blue Jays' glorious sweep of Oakland on the podcast!

Ryan Andrews discusses their thoughts on the pitching Toronto got in its series against Oakland, with a cheer for Marcus Stroman, a boo for Aaron Sanchez, and a meh for Trent Thornton. The second half sees them preview the Angels series that starts later tonight, starting with Griffin Canning, who makes his MLB debut for the Angels. So, you know, trouble for the Blue Jays.
