Jays Journal Podcast – November 7. “Show Don’t Tell.”
As rumours swirl around the future of certain players and the club’s desire to improve on a number of key deficiencies from last year, we’re thrilled to bring you a round table comprised of serious experts that’ll have you coming back for more. Be sure to join host Ari Shapiro as he offers you a compelling hour of round table banter from earlier in the week (11/02) featuring Sportsnet’s Tao of Stieb (@TaoOfStieb), minor league guru with Prospect1500.com, Jason Woodell (@JasonAtTheGame), and marketing research analyst Marshall Auerback (@Mauerback). Together, they explore:
