The new hate-on between Blue Jays and Yankees fans began with a catty observation by YES broadcaster Michael Kay and intensified lately with a calculated response from Buck Martinez questioning the Bronx Bombers. On this edition of Exit Philosophy, Griff and Mal discuss the role of Trey Yesavage, the future of Bo and Santander, the new leader in the clubhouse for AL manager of the year, the importance of the Jays at least winning one post-season series, the The impact of the Futures Showcase at Rogers Centre and more.
