Post All-Star Chat with John Schneider and Matt Stairs

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker are joined by Blue Jays manager John Schneider (3:20) to chat about his All-Star break, the swing off, and give some roster updates on Yimi Garcia, Anthony Santander, Daulton Varsho, and other names. Then, he gets into how he's set up his rotation for the first two series after the week's rest against the San Francisco Giants and New York Yankees, how the team has settled in performing at Rogers Centre versus on the road, what it'll take for Vladdy Jr. to get hot at the dish, Davis Schneider capitalizing pitcher's mistakes, and how a long layoff could affect the entire pitching staff. Then, former MLB outfielder Matt Stairs stops by (30:09) to discuss the development of Canadian prospects across the baseball summer leagues, analyzing a player's hitting mechanics early in their career, how the Blue Jays jump on success right out of the break, and if it's easy to make a change one's mechanics at this stage of the season. 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.
