## Resource

Sportsnet's Shi Davidi (10:20) joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker ahead of the Blue Jays' series opener against the Yankees. They break down the Jays' recent roster moves with Tyler Heineman being DFA'd, whether George Springer could be back in the outfield, Addison Barger's rehab progress, and the plan for Max Scherzer as Shane Bieber nears a return. Later, ESPN's Tim Kurkjian (31:11) stops by to share his thoughts on the Jays' season so far, what the Jays can expect from the Yankees' pitching, how the Yankees manage in Aaron Judge's absence, Ernie Clement's All-Star case, and why the Tigers shouldn't trade Tarik Skubal.
