Jays Talk Plus: Winning in the Most Conventional Way

The Blue Jays picked up a conventional win at Rogers Centre on Monday night, finally providing some run support for Kevin Gausman to beat the Nationals 6-3. Host Blake Murphy breaks down the victory with Sportsnet’s own Ben Nicholson-Smith! The two discuss Kevin Gausman's season as a whole, the injuries plaguing the Jays right now, who will step in to fill the gaps, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. taking reps at *checks notes* third base?! After that, Blake takes a big picture view of the Majors with MLB Network’s Jon Morosi, who checks in on the postseason races around the league and identifies the deciding factors heading down the stretch (30:55). Later on, Blake connects with Andrew Golden of the Washington Post, who is in Toronto covering this series, to get some insight on the Nationals' strong second half of the season (50:30). Lastly, Blake is joined by Tim Britton, senior MLB writer at The Athletic, who helps determine a team’s best path to compete in October, and the lessons learned from the New York Mets this year (01:14:00).
