John Schneider's Weekend Walkthrough + Bobby Scales Talks Tigers
About this episode
John Schneider, Manager of your Toronto Blue Jays, kicks off the second hour alongside Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker. Skip shares some updates on his team's injured players, before diving into Anthony Santander's job ahead and if he would consider changing up the batting order. John also chats about Bo Bichette's work at the plate this season, his pitching staff's struggles keeping the ball in the yard, and Bowden Francis' keys to success tonight, before responding to this week's fan question of the week from Brandon in Whitehorse, Yukon! The trio wrap up with thoughts on what's different about Nathan Lukes and the impact of having the dome open at Rogers Centre. Bobby Scales (23:55), Tigers radio analyst, joins the conversation to share the low down on Detroit. He chats about Javier Báez' resurgence, the team-wide offensive approach, Riley Greene's ceiling, how Gleyber Torres has fit in, and what makes Tarik Skubal so special.
