Episode Details

It’s Barker’s last day in Dunedin as he and Jeff Blair comment on the Blue Jays parting ways with Santiago Espinal after he was dealt to the Cincinnati Reds for P Chris McElvain. Later they discuss Kevin Gausman’s timetable after he threw on Wednesday, and Barker outlines his concerns going into the season after covering the team throughout his time in Florida. To end the show, Blair is joined by MLB insider Jeff Passan (32:51) to discuss two major off-the-field stories: Shohei Ohtani and his interpreter Ippei Mizuhara being implicated in an illegal gambling investigation, and the division within the MLBPA and the future of its Executive Director Tony Clark.
