Jays Talk Plus: Talking Jays Bats & Joey Bats

The day after losing 1-0, the Blue Jays manage to win 1-0. The first time in team history that’s happened and JTP host Blake Murphy recaps it for you. He welcomes Jonah Birenbaum of theScore to dive further into the week that has been for the Blue Jays where scoring runs has become an issue again. After that, the two have some fun as they dive into some Jose Bats trivia ahead of Bautista’s honouring this weekend and going onto the ‘Level of Excellence’. Later, Geoff Pontes, prospect writer of Baseball America, fresh off a trip to the Jays’ Dunedin complex, discusses some of the top names in Toronto’s system as well as some of the ones you might hear of soon (51:38). Last but certainly not least, fan favourite John Gibbons, former Blue Jays manager and now host of The Gibby Show, to talk more about what he’s up to lately, gives some thoughts on this year’s team as well as reminisce on his days in Toronto and share some Jose Bautista stories (1:18:02).
