Summary
Blue Jays reporter and recent recipient of the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame's Jack Graney Award, Hazel Mae (1:57), joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker to kick off the second hour of the off-day edition. She shares her thoughts on the Jays' series loss against the Yankees, missed opportunities on offence, and the bullpen's workload. Then, co-host of Intentional Talk and former MLB pitcher Ryan Dempster (21:13) discusses the state of the American League, who should make the call on Max Scherzer's future, Trey Yesavage's rookie road bumps, how players stay motivated on slumping teams, and Jacob Misiorowski's all-time stuff.
