Summary

Dan Shulman and Buster discuss the Toronto Blue Jays perched atop the American League, the latest on George Springer, wearing down pitchers, the veteran staring pitching, and when we might see top prospect Trey Yesavage. Then, Jesse Rogers stops by to talk about the Brewers’ confidence, the Cubs calling up Owen Caissie, and the Padres taking a lead in the NL West over the Dodgers. Next, Sarah Langs has an essay on Mariners. Later, Todd Radom shares the Ballpark & Beyond, and administers the quiz.
