  • Big Oak Goes Yard (Again), Jays Even Series vs. Guardians
    Apr 25 2026

    Sho Alli and Nick Ashbourne break down the Blue Jays' 5-3 win over the Guardians to even the series at one game apiece! They take your calls and texts, and get to the second career save for Louis Varland, who (despite some traffic) slammed the door to wrap up the win - why is the ninth inning so different for relievers? They get into Kazuma Okamoto's big game, including a home run and a bases loaded walk - if he can look like this more consistently, what could that do for the offence? Plus, they discuss Kevin Gausman's 6.2 IP of two-run ball, Ernie Clement continuing to churn out hits, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s lack of home run production.

  • Mad Max Crushed Early, Jays Lose Opener vs. Guardians
    Apr 25 2026

    Sho Alli and Daniele Franceschi break down the Blue Jays' 8-6 loss vs. the Guardians in the series opener. They take your calls and texts, and get right to Max Scherzer allowing seven earned runs over 2.1 IP - should he have been pulled sooner to give the waking bats a chance? What is his role going forward if he can't be a member of the starting rotation with Trey Yesavage and José Berríos on their way back, and has even Patrick Corbin earned a role over him? Plus, they debate the year Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is having when it comes to power expectations, discuss a long solo bomb from Kazuma Okamoto, and check in on Nathan Lukes who departed early with an injury.

What does the future look like for Lauer with reinforcements on their way for both the rotation and bullpen?

Plus, they get into the offence, including Eloy Jiménez and Lenyn Sosa providing all the offence - what is their future with the team once reinforcements arrive?

    Apr 21 2026

    Sho Alli and Nick Ashbourne break down the Blue Jays' 5-2 win over the Angels to open the three-game series in Anaheim! They take your calls and texts, and get to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s two-run bomb off Reid Detmers early on - how important is it for him to continue to lead the way offensively? They also chat about Nathan Lukes' pinch-hit RBI single, the baserunning from Myles Straw, and 12 Ks for Dylan Cease on 110 pitches over five innings of work. Plus, they get to the bullpen usage - is Jeff Hoffman still going to be in the mix for closer going forward after slamming the door for his third save of the year?

  • Lukes, Okamoto Lead Jays to Offensive Explosion in Arizona
    Apr 20 2026

    Sho Alli and Kaitlyn McGrath break down the Blue Jays' 10-4 win over the Diamondbacks to wrap up the series in Arizona! They take your calls and texts, and get right to the eight runs scored in the top of the first inning - how important was it for Nathan Lukes and Kazuma Okamoto to have breakthrough games (especially with the bases loaded)? They discuss the outing for Kevin Gausman, who had some velo issues early on but still went six strong innings - was the velo fluctuation simply because he sat for so long after a long top of the first? Plus, they discuss the bullpen circle of trust, get into what a lineup could like against lefty Reid Detmers in Anaheim, and hear from Lukes himself on his recent diagnosis of vertigo.

  • Hoffman Gets Slammed Late, Jays Lose Sixth Straight Series
    Apr 19 2026

    Sho Alli and Kaitlyn McGrath break down the Blue Jays' 6-2 loss vs. the Diamondbacks in Arizona to lose the series, their sixth straight series loss. They take your calls and texts, and get right to Jeff Hoffman loading the bases with none out in the eighth inning, only to promptly give up a grand slam to Corbin Carroll. After already being removed from the closer role, what else can be done? Is he completely out of the circle of trust, and what other leverage spots can he pitch in at this point? They also discuss the offence providing 12 hits but only one extra-base hit, and get to Max Scherzer delivering six innings of two-run ball on just 74 pitches.

    Apr 18 2026

    Sho Alli breaks down the Blue Jays' 6-3 loss vs. the Diamondbacks to start the series in Arizona. He takes your texts, and gets right to the Daulton Varsho injury in the third inning - how has the team continued to sustain such a huge amount of injuries this early in the year? Is it time to panic? He also discusses the team's uncharacteristic errors, including a tough one from Vladimir Guerrero Jr., the outing from Eric Lauer, the appearances from Spencer Miles and Joe Mantiply, the first home run of the season for Myles Straw, and another hard game for Kazuma Okamoto.
