Jays Journal Podcast – February 1st. “Collusion of Common Sense.”
It’s been less than a week since the Toronto Blue Jays last made a move that resulted in reinforcing some form of infield or outfield depth, thereby ensuring that an already restless fanbase continues to hold their breath as high profile free agents remain tantalizingly available. It certainly hasn’t been your typical winter off-season and the silence can be deafening at times for those wondering what the future holds in store.
Tune in and listen as host Ari Shapiro welcomes a triumvirate of baseball writers: Laura Armstrong (@lauraarmy) from the Toronto Star, Arden Zwelling (@ArdenZwelling) of Sportsnet, and blogger/freelance social media darling, Tao of Stieb (@TaoOfStieb). Together, they tackle: the issue of eyesight in baseball, free agency impotence, how Devon Travis remains the x-factor in 2018, the Kendrys Morales quagmire, if Ryan Tepera becomes a versatile revelation, will John Gibbons survive the year, and thoughts on the latest Cooperstown inductees.
