Description
Ben and Brent kick off this hour by teeing up the Blue Jays upcoming series against the Red Sox with the American League East in the balance. Should Toronto treat this like a playoff series? The guys discuss Kevin Gausman's security as the team's Game 1 postseason starter, before getting into Anthony Santander's rehab progress and what we need to see from him to confidently slot him into the lineup. Later, they take a closer look at some Ryder Cup storylines including Team Europe deciding not to take any money for the event, how that portrays the American side, and the big players to watch for heading into the weekend. Shi Davidi (25:27), Sportsnet Blue Jays Insider, shifts the conversation back to baseball as the Jays prepare to battle Boston at Rogers Centre. Shi shares his expectations for the series at hand, the status of Bo Bichette and Santander, Eric Lauer's ideal role in October, and what he makes of the team's rotation decisions.
