JTP: Buffalo Check In & Just How Good Has Vladdy Been?

Blake Murphy starts the show with the FAN 590 Blue Jays & Raptors play-by-play announcer Eric Smith! They get into his experience of living out a lifelong dream calling Toronto Blue Jays games. How has the experience differed from what he expected? And what does he make of this Blue Jays team? Blake is then joined by Buffalo Bison’s announcer Pat Malacaro (25:44) to get a feel for how the new additions are settling in at Buffalo. How does Joey Votto look? And does Pat expect to be called up to the big leagues in September? Director of Data Analysts & research at Pitcher List Kyle Bland (50:17) then joins Blake to talk about their work at Pitcher List. What metrics should the average fan be using? And what do the numbers say about Vladdy? Blake answers Fan questions in the last segment to close out the show!
