Verdugo Plays the Villain & Catching with Caleb

Blair & Barker

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker recap Toronto’s 6-5 loss to the Boston Red Sox as Alex Verdugo hit a game-winning walk-off home run off of Jordan Romano. The guys discuss Jose Berrios’ start, John Schneider’s bullpen usage, and Bo Bichette being locked in offensively before going to the Back Leg Line for a few questions. Caleb Joseph joins the show to assess the level of trust of the different relievers in the Blue Jays’ pen before commenting on Nate Pearson’s breaking ball, Daulton Varsho’s plate approach, and how Danny Jansen and Alejandro Kirk profile defensively (49:40).
