About this episode
Braves TV analyst CJ Nitkowski (1:48) joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker ahead of the second game of the Blue Jays' series in Atlanta. They discuss Matt Olson's elite play on offence and defence, Ozzie Albies' quiet reliability, Spencer Strider's evolution, and why manager Walt Weiss was the right choice to replace Brian Snitker. Jeff and Kevin listen to John Schneider's pre-game availability before welcoming former MLB outfielder and Blue Jays Central's Kevin Pillar to the show (26:12). He weighs in on Patrick Corbin's historic struggles against the Braves ahead of his start, how George Springer can adjust at the plate, Daulton Varsho's defensive regression, and much more.
