## Resource

Sho Alli and Daniele Franceschi sub in for Blake Murphy to talk about Nathan Lukes’ big time performance on Saturday, Dylan Cease’s start, Jose Soriano and the 6th inning on Sunday and the inconsistent offence from Toronto. Afterwards, Sportsnet’s MLB insider Ben Nicholson-Smith (29:24) breaks down how the Jays could deploy Spencer Arrighetti for the remainder of the season, Charles McAdoo’s recent play, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s season. Following that, Sho and Daniele present their lineups if Vladdy was moved down the batting order to provide the Jays with more stable production (49:36). In the final segment, Jared Diamond (1:16:38) of Wall Street Journal talks about some of the most intriguing awards races, the letdown seasons of Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Cal Raleigh’s and more.
