The Toronto Blue Jays finally made a big move on the trade market, acquiring reliever Adam Cimber and outfielder Corey Dickerson from the Miami Marlins for Joe Panik and prospect Andrew McInvale. They’ve also shown interest in Pittsburgh Pirates closer Richard Rodríguez. Is this enough to make Toronto’s bullpen playoff-caliber? Did the Blue Jays win this deal? What was the point of getting Dickerson when the Blue Jays already have four starting outfielders? Mark and Bryson also discuss a disappointing series against the Seattle Mariners, including the decision to not pitch Cimber in the 10th inning on Wednesday. What’s up with Hyun Jin Ryu? Will Danny Jansen’s return fix Ryu’s June woes? How well does Toronto have to do before the All-Star break to have any hope in the second half?
