Show Notes
Burn the sage, it's time to cleanse Toronto of these demons of playoffs (and Rays) past. Drew and Stoeten forecast the Jays' series against Tampa Bay (:30). What's there really to fear from the No. 1 overall seed in the American League? Is it realistic the Blue Birds actually win this series? The stunning, though, probably expected development of Matt Shoemaker starting game one engenders further thinking, like, why is Shoemaker starting the opening game of the series (9:15)? What is the most effective way to manage the bullpen in his start? Could we see Nate Pearson in relief? The guys entertain and answer some of your Blue Jays-postseason questions (21:15), including: Will Charlie Montoyo's perceivable future with Toronto be affected by the outcome of this series; are our brains goop for the Brain Bug from Starship Troopers to eat, or are we right to question why Hyun-jin Ryu is starting game two (28:00); how can we expect defensive replacements to look this series (33:45) and how will this postseason impact the Blue Jays' off-season (39:15)?
