Later, Jeff and Kevin listen to John Schneider's pre-game availability ahead of the Jays' series-opener against the Phillies, discuss the looming returns of Dylan Cease, Alejandro Kirk and Yimi García, and dive deeper into Vladdy Jr.'s mechanics. Finally, they share their expectations for the Jays in their test against Cristopher Sánchez and the Phillies.
