Description
Ben and Brent kick off the final hour of the show alongside former MLB pitcher and host of Intentional Talk, Ryan Dempster! The guys get Ryan’s thoughts on Trey Yesavage's development and how he would deploy him down the stretch here. Should the rookie get the ball to start a postseason game? The trio also gauge their level of concern surrounding Jeff Hoffman and the Blue Jays bullpen, before Ryan discusses the intricacies of gaining confidence as a closer and the importance of friendly competition between starters. Later, Blake Murphy (25:52) of Jays Talk Plus weighs in with his ideal playoff rotation, the ripple effects of moving starters to the 'pen, and the impact of Bo Bichette's injury on both sides of the ball.
