It’s a post-game edition of Baseball Central as the Blue Jays blank the Yankees 8-0 on Labour Day! Ben Wagner, voice of the Blue Jays, joins Jeff and Kevin to discuss Hyun-Jin Ryu exiting Monday’s game due to arm tightness, George Springer’s nagging knee injury, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s disciplined approach at the plate (4:40). Later, the guys share their thoughts on Julian Merryweather rejoining the Blue Jays in New York and Lourdes Gurriel Jr.’s heroics this past weekend against the A’s (40:03). Ken Singleton, former MLB outfielder and current YES analyst, weighs in on the Yankees’ recent struggles, their defensive woes on Monday, and their depleted bullpen (46:45). Jeff and Kevin also discuss the Rays’ wild 11-10 extra-innings victory over the Red Sox and the Blue Jays’ reinvigorated playoff hopes amidst their current five-game winning streak (1:12:12).
