What are the Blue Jays' game plans against the Seattle Mariners?
All right. Welcome to Blair and Barker for Friday. Well, this will be interesting. It doth appear that the headphones that I have aren't functioning. I got them.
How can Dylan Cease effectively face Luis Castillo?
I got them. There you go. All good, man. All good. How you doing?
Better than you. That's for sure.
I left my headphones. Holy. It's Friday.
What updates are there on George Springer and his playing time?
I left my headphones someplace. I feel like this used to be, you know, this is old radio guy headphones, man.
That's like the Zach Morris cell phone.
Hey. I mean, I really don't even need it for a segment. You don't. For sure. Jays and Mariners will open their three-game series tonight. In Seattle, the Jays 41-46, the Mariners 44-43. 10-07, first pitch on Sportsnet and Sportsnet 590. The fan will be joined, I'd say in about half an hour, by the manager of the Blue Jays, John Schneider. Aaron Goldsmith, the Mariners' play-by-play voice, will be along.
What does John Schneider say about Anthony Santander's recovery?
And later on, Dan Shulman, the Blue Jays' play-by-play voice, will join us as we get you set for the ALCS rematch. Not really. No, it's not. I mean, there were two teams that are in the ALCS, but... Not these two teams. Thank you. I was trying to figure out a tactful way of saying it.
Well, you know, if you self-taught it to me, I'd say it for you.
That is a, yeah, that was, I was trying to say two organizations, but yeah, it's true. Well, you can joke about it now because it's July 3rd and it's not, October 3rd. Well, I'm not lying. There can be no joking.
How can Shane Bieber improve his performance on the mound?
Yeah, I'm not lying. Although, if the season ended today, they wouldn't be in the playoffs, would they? That's a negatory. All right. Well, I can't even go down that road. The Mariners would be, I think. I mean, you're making me work. This is one of those days. I mean, you know, it's one of those days where, like, 4 o'clock just creeps up on you. It does?
What factors contribute to Nathan Lukes' success at the top of the order?
Yeah. I mean, it just does. It just does.
What are we looking at with the... Yeah, Seattle being the third wild card spot. Houston's two and a half back. Minnesota's three back. Your Blue Jays are three and a half back. Yeah, they got some heavy lifting to do. If ever they could call on a sweep... Oh, that's not even good. It'd be this one. That's not even good.
Well, I mean... I'm still at the... I'm still at the win a couple of series. Yeah, you're not me. Try to get the. That's over. Try to get the 500.
Sooner or later, you're going to have to sweep a good team. Not really. Yeah, you are.
What are the implications of the Blue Jays' lineup changes?
You definitely are. No. Okay. You don't have to sweep teams. You do when there's three teams in front of you.
No.
Yeah, three teams.
Yeah, unless it's those teams, you don't have to sweep them.
Well, they are playing the Seattle Mariners.
That's one.
How does John Schneider view the upcoming series against the Mariners?
Yeah.
But, I mean, they don't have to sweep anybody else. That's a silly statement.
Well, aren't they playing Seattle this weekend?
And one that would not hold up to the appropriate amount of scrutiny. Nice headphones.
Shut up. You can pull your mic up, too. Geez. The mic is fine. I mean, it's like you're so much lower than me.
Well, it's because, you know, Kiprios had the chair before me and – Like, it's just a mess today. The whole day's a mess. Huh. Hot out? Wow, it's perfect. Today is nice. Today is nice. Dylan Cease will take on Luis Castillo. Pretty good pitching matchups here. Dylan Cease against Luis Castillo. Shane Bieber against Logan Gilbert. Trey Savage against George Kirby. So they miss Bryce Miller and Brian Wu.
Yeah.
It'll be interesting. One thing I think we really do agree on, and you mentioned this yesterday, this would be a really good time for Dylan Seast of his best start as a Blue Jay. Really good.
Yeah, it's going to be tough. 10 of his 15 starts didn't go six innings. You know, passing got me thinking yesterday whenever I came, you know, and I was trying to be positive and, you know, saying that Dylan needs to run out there and go eight innings. And, you know, I hear from passing and I'm getting texts and I'm getting DMs. Not many people go eight innings. Well, I mean, every once in a while you kind of need it. Like every once in a while you kind of need one of those surprise starts where everything he's working on has worked.
