Jays Journal Podcast – September 12. “September Blues, April Joy.”
As a plethora of reinforcements make their way to the true north, strong and free – the Blue Jays find themselves playing a rare brand of baseball which includes: clutch hitting, timely pitching, and outstanding defense against teams in dire need of victories. Last night’s game against Baltimore and their recent series win against the (unfathomably bad) Tigers was further affirmation of the “September spectacle” put on display by the front office for all fans see.
In lieu of such circumstances, we are proud to bring you a formidable round table comprised of three heavyweight minor league aficionados who know a thing or two about elite prospects; Craig Borden (@Craigers1221) of Jays Journal, Jason Woodell (@JasonAtTheGame) of Prospects1500.com, and Jesse Goldberg-Strassler (@jgoldstrass), voice of the Lansing Lugnuts. Tune in and listen as they discuss:
