Atop the AL with John Schneider

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker look back on the Blue Jays' 11-4 win over the Detroit Tigers to improve to the best record in the American League. Then, they share their thoughts on the Mariners trading for Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks, the Yankees filling their third-base hole with Ryan McMahon from the Rockies, the Mets landing Gregory Soto from the Orioles, and how the early trade action impacts the Jays' plans for the deadline. Later, Blue Jays manager John Schneider (25:40) stops by to share an update on Daulton Varsho and Andrés Giménez's rehab progress, what part the players play in trade decisions, how Eric Lauer has sustained his success, where he's improved most as a manager and much more.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
