Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

Maybe you just find a way to be like, how can we get outs with just ground balls and saber bolts so that we can be that ace?

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

Because in order to be successful, you've got to have a guy on your team that does that.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

The best teams all have that guy who can go six, seven, eight, nine innings if he can be.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

Yeah, I think there's some surprises going on.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

Obviously, what the White Sox are doing, what the Rays are doing at the top of the division.

Oakland, although I believe Oakland's got a nasty team, I think they can stomp and hit with anybody, especially with that ballpark.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

It's whether or not they can pitch.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

But I think the rest of it's pretty wide open.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

I mean, the Yankees are going to be really good.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

But I think what we're watching is a horse race.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

And right now, there's a few horses that have got this huge lead, right?

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

And we're all super excited.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

But at the end of the day, you know, where are they when it finishes?

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

I heard you when you were coming in.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

I think we can look up a month or two from now or three months from now, and it's probably going to be that same sort of two or three games.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

That might be the Blue Jays are five games over 500.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

Like, that's the one part about it.

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

It's hard not to get too...

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

invested or two oh what's going on with their team because it's such a long season and you still have so many games left to be able to go over 100 games left to go out there and play so um you know you start to see the big horses what happens when there's injuries what happens when there's a need for depth who who can sustain that you know like the white socks they're doing great everybody's healthy everybody's playing pitchers are throwing well what happens when one guy goes down the trickle down effect of the bullpen or a position player goes down now the lineup effects

Blair & Barker
One-Run Loss + Around the League with Ryan Dempster

because you don't have that depth, whereas I think the Blue Jays have some depth, and I think that will put them back into this run, and I truly feel like they're going to be pushing for that division, and I feel like they're going to the playoffs, so it's just a matter of time.
