Ben Ennis and Sam McKee take a look at how the Blue Jays plan to manage the rotation down the stretch here. They question if skipping José Berríos is the right choice, if they should they be priming the big three of Shane Bieber, Max Scherzer and Kevin Gausman for the postseason, and the trickle-down effect of that on the bullpen. Is there a chance we see Trey Yesavage up here in September? The guys also chat about what this season done for George Springer’s legacy and if he has bought himself a free pass for next year in Toronto. Later, Ben and Sam share their thoughts on Keegan Bradley’s Ryder Cup selection and debate if not selecting himself to play was the right choice. Rob Longley, Blue Jays beat reporter for the Toronto Sun, joins the show to share his experience from Rogers Centre last night and how he is feeling about the team right now. Rob wraps up with thoughts on Anthony Santander's outlook this year and why Ernie Clement has not gone on the IL yet.
