Episode Details

Chris Bassitt is back in the spotlight, pitching for the Baltimore Orioles against his former team, the Toronto Blue Jays — and this weekend’s game is loaded with nostalgia and stats. After three stellar seasons with Toronto, including a record 16 wins in 2023 and a key postseason run, Bassitt’s return comes after signing a one-year, $18.5M deal. Now with a 4-4 record and 5.27 ERA for Baltimore, he’s facing his old squad in a matchup that fans won’t want to miss. Beyond the mound, Bassitt’s community impact shines — he and his wife run “Bassitts Pitch In,” and he was nominated for the Roberto Clemente Award in 2024. And he’s not done yet — Bassitt’s next start is Monday against the Mariners, proving that former Blue Jays still have plenty to give.
