About this episode

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker analyze the Blue Jays' loss to the Phillies and discuss player performances and upcoming games.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 7-4 loss vs. the Phillies to wrap up the series in Toronto. They take your calls and texts, and discuss the return of Max Scherzer - despite notching the milestone K, what does the future look like for Mad Max, both as a Blue Jay and overall? They get into the offence scuffling against Jesús Luzardo - why does it seem to struggle against pitchers with an inflated ERA? Plus, they look ahead to the conclusion of the homestand, which ends in a showdown with the Yankees. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
