Jays Fall vs. Rangers (Again), Losing Streak Hits Four

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 5-4 loss vs. the Rangers in Toronto. They take your calls and texts, and discuss another comeback that fell short once more - can the offence manage early runs against an opposing starting pitcher? They also get into Patrick Corbin, who allowed five earned runs over 4.1 IP - is that the last we'll see of Corbin in a Jays uniform? Plus, could Sean Keys simply replace an injured Jesús Sánchez if (when) he gets officially called up in the next few days?

Messy Play Sinks Jays in Series Loss vs. Astros

Jeff Blair and Sho Alli break down the Blue Jays' 3-1 loss vs. the Astros to drop the series in Toronto. They take your calls and texts, and discuss the Jays playing a sloppy brand of baseball - what happened in the top of the eighth inning with Jeff Hoffman and Kazuma Okamoto? Did Luis Urías make an avoidable baserunning error in the bottom half of the eighth? How do they get back to fundamentally sound baseball moving forward? Plus, they chat about Trey Yesavage allowing one run - but issuing five walks - over 5.2 IP, and discuss the lack of offence against Mike Burrows - how does the offence get it going, and when will George Springer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. turn it on more consistently?
