He's great.

Yeah, you've talked to him before.

That's great.

Yeah, everyone seems to speak the world of him.

Let's take a break.

When we come back, we are going to talk –

about challenge stuff.

And I've had this in the notes for you every single time you've come on, and we've never gotten to it because there was more game stuff.

But I want to pick your brain on some challenge stuff and why, in addition to just being right about challenges all the time, Jose Altuve is so annoying to pitch against because the Jays are going to see a lot more of him the next two days.

John Axford, stay in with us as Jays Talk Plus continues on the Sportsnet Radio Network.

Welcome back to Jay's Talk Plus.

Blake Murphy and John Axford with you.

John talked a lot about the stuff from that game last night.

There's also a Jose Altuve element.

And Jordan Alvarez is the big, difficult guy on that team.

But Jose Altuve, despite not having a terrific season overall yet, looks like a pretty...

irritating guy to pitch against, not just because he gets every challenge call right, but because he's a tough at bat.

You pitched against him a bunch.

Where is the challenger for Altuve?

And do you see it still there even here as he gets a little older and the stat line isn't quite as spicy?
