The Toronto Blue Jays lose a series to the Minnesota Twins, but a big silver lining is the fact that the offense is still going.

Also discussed: Toronto’s depth at catcher. Should the Blue Jays trade Alejandro Kirk, Gabriel Moreno or Danny Jansen? Could one of them be on the move by…

How concerned should we be about other teams in the division running away with it? Also discussed: the questionable decision to pull Alek Manoah after the eighth…

We’re shaking up Section 138 with a BRAND NEW LOGO for the first time in podcast history.
