Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker look back on the Toronto Blue Jays' series-opening loss to the Kansas City Royals. They discuss the Jays's standing in the Wild Card race as they fell three games back with four teams ahead, the team's play since Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s return to the lineup, the decision to sub Alejandro Kirk and George Springer in mid game, Max Scherzer's start, and the lineup's struggles with runners in scoring position. Later, MLB Network analyst and former MLB GM Dan O'Dowd (25:32) stops by to share how a front office should approach a struggling superstar like Vladdy, the Jays' resilience in 2026, why the Cubs pose the biggest threat to the Dodgers in the NL, why Kyle Tucker has been the most disappointing player in MLB this season, and Brewers manager benching Cooper Pratt for not running hard out of the box.
