## Resource

Shane Bieber’s disastrous debut as a Blue Jay—walking six batters in just one inning, throwing only 15 strikes out of 42 pitches—could be his final outing with the team before the trade deadline. Struggling with grip due to heat and humidity, Bieber took full blame for the worst start of his Toronto tenure, while manager John Schneider called the walks a franchise record. Despite the Blue Jays rallying with home runs from Okamoto and Springer, they fell to a season-low 10 games under .500, fueling speculation that Bieber—and others—may be dealt before the deadline.
