Blue Jays outfielders Addison Barger and George Springer

Guests: Blue Jays outfielders Addison Barger and George Springer     Today's episode of Deep Left Field DAILY features a couple of Blue Jays sluggers who had unexpectedly great seasons and made massive contributions toward the Jays winning the American League East and getting to within inches of a World Series championship last fall. George Springer came off the worst year of his career to lead the Jays with 32 home runs and finish third in the majors in OPS - behind only Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani. In the post-season, his go-ahead three-run home run in Game 7 of the American League championship series propelled the Jays into the Fall Classic and stands as one of the biggest round-trippers in Jays history. Addison Barger didn't even make the team out of spring training last year, but wound up hitting 21 home runs, third on the Jays behind Springer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. In his first career post-season, he belted the only pinch-hit grand slam in World Series history and hit .480 over the seven games against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Springer and Barger join us to talk about that magical playoff run and to look ahead to the new season that begins Friday night. All that, plus your thoughts in the mailbag at [email protected]!
