Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker examine the Blue Jays 3-0 loss to the Giants despite Kevin Gausman’s strong outing with twelve strikeouts. Blue Jays EVP/GM Ross Atkins discusses his ballclub at the halfway point of the season; notably Alek Manoah’s work in Florida, Bo Bichette’s standout season, having difficulty hitting with runners in scoring position, and how he views Vladimir Guerrero Jr’s first-half production (26:04). Three-Time World Champion with the Giants Jeremy Affeldt talks about how San Francisco’s Gabe Kapler has evolved from his first manager job with the Phillies, the success he and the Giants had under Bruce Bochy in the 2010s, this year’s Giants squad, and his podcast ‘Built for The Storm’ (51:41).
