The Jays Clinch. Now What? w/ Ben Nicholson-Smith
About this episode
JD reacts to the Blue Jays' clinching a postseason berth after their win against the Royals in the series finale, the team's celebration in the clubhouse, and the journey to get to this point (00:00). Sportsnet's Ben Nicholson-Smith joins the show to continue the conversation around the Blue Jays heading into the playoffs, including Daulton Varsho's incredible catch that was ruled incorrectly, the potential for Trey Yesavage to start a playoff game for the Jays, Max Scherzer's treacherous start against the Royals over the weekend, what the Blue Jays should do with José Berríos down the stretch, and the decisions to be made in the lineup and in the bullpen as the Jays look to clinch the AL East this week (15:14). Later, JD touches on the Maple Leafs' first preseason game against the Senators, and Auston Matthews' comments on the continued questions about Mitch Marner (46:41).
