Then Ernie Clement joins us to talk about the team's rough start to the season, his ever-increasing popularity (and visibility on your television between innings!), and how last season's late-May rebound weighs into the Jays' feelings about this season's issues. With the Angels having been in town, we catch up with a couple of old friends. Two-time Jays skipper John Gibbons sits down for a trip down memory lane and we chat with Alek Manoah about his return to the big leagues in his old home ballpark, as well as his meteoric rise with the Jays and the fall that sees him with his third different team in eight months. All that, plus your thoughts in the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca!","meta_description":"Guests: Blue Jays infielder Ernie Clement, Los Angeles Angels pitcher Alek Manoah and bench coach John Gibbons This week in Deep Left Field, we take you t…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4741,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/deep-left-field-with-mike-wilner-2232779/episodes/a-walk-off-grand-slam-episode-with-blue-jay-ernie-clement-and-old-friends-john-gibbons-and-alek-manoah/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/deep-left-field-with-mike-wilner-2232779/a-walk-off-grand-slam-episode-with-blue-jay-ernie-clement-and-old-friends-john-gibbons-and-alek-manoah.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
