Jays Centre Podcast

The Blue Jays look like they're playing their best baseaball when it matters the most. They take 2-3 from the Baltimore Orioles to keep pace with the Cleveland Guardians, and remain just one game back of a playoff spot. Owen and Jesse break it all down, getting into their rising confidence in the lineup, while confidence in the rotation begins to waver, and just how much they've bought into this team. Stick around for discussions about Brett Bateman, Alejandro Kirk, Kazuma Okamoto, George Springer, Max Scherzer, Dylan Cease, Spencer Miles, and of course, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

Owen rides solo in this episode, breaking down concern with Dylan Cease, the Jays' ability to hold baserunners, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr., but finds positives in Kazuma Okamoto's huge rookies season, Spencer Miles, and José Soriano.

Losing the finale is always dampens the mood, but Owen and Jesse look to stay positive as they break down the Jays' series victory in Kansas City. They talk everything from Brett Bateman, to Vladimir Guerrero Jr., to Louis Varland and the bullpen, and are eager to take a look at the ever tightening American League Wildcard Standings.

Welcome back, Vlad. We've missed you. Vladimir Guerrero Jr had his best moment of the season, driving in 5 runs to help the Blue Jays win a CRUCIAL series against the Guardians, pushing them into the driver's seat in the AL Wild Card picture. In this episode, we discuss the differences we've seen from Vlad and some other hitters who have shown us signs of life. Then take a look at Spencer Arrighetti's recent start: are we seeing a new version of Dylan Cease? And what in the world is going on with Ernie Clement? All that and so much more!
