Superstar Skenes, Vlad's Importance & MLB Realignment

Brent and Sam continue into the second hour discussing the Blue Jays' loss last night to Paul Skenes and the Pirates. The hosts dig into the rapid rise of Pittsburgh's ace and debate if he’s considered a superstar in the league. Speaking of polarizing franchise players, the duo turn their attention to Vladimir Guerrero Jr. The pair open the conversation on his importance to Toronto and how much losing him would impact the lineup down the stretch. B&S also chat about the recent comments from commissioner Rob Manfred about possible MLB realignment, what the Jays’ new division would look like, and how the rest of the league would shake out. Jon Morosi (25:25), MLB Network Insider, closes this hour with his view of last night’s Jays loss including Toronto’s abnormal sloppy play and Tommy Pham’s temper, before forecasting when the new-look MLB landscape could actually come into play.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.
