Managing the Home Stretch with Derek Shelton

Blair & Barker

About this episode

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker start the postgame edition with a look back on the Blue Jays' 4-0 loss to close out their series against the Tampa Bay Rays. MLB Network's Jon Morosi joins the show (4:49) to discuss what's wrong with the Tigers after they got swept at home by the Guardians, the impact of Bo Bichette's absence, why Trey Yesavage should be used as a starter in the playoffs, and Clayton Kershaw's legacy now that he's announced his intent to retire. Then, Jeff and Kevin debate whether the Dodgers should play Shohei Ohtani in the outfield in the playoffs. Finally, former MLB manager Derek Shelton stops by (30:38) to give a manager's perspective on how the Jays should handle Yesavage down the stretch and into the playoffs.
