Guests: Blue Jays outfielders George Springer and Nathan Lukes, pitcher Easton Lucas
Coming off a sweep in Houston where Blue Jays hitters were almost completely shut down for three games, we go over an agonizing “week that was,” one in which the Jays only won once and one that finished on a tear-your-hair-out frustrating five-game losing streak. One of the only players on the team who is hitting at the moment is the resurgent George Springer, and he joins us to discuss his unexpectedly hot start as well as his charity bowling event in support of The Stuttering Association for the Young. We talk to Nathan Lukes, who welcomed a new baby boy last week, though he wasn’t able to make it home to Arizona for the birth. We also chat with left-hander Easton Lucas, the day before his second straight rough start got him optioned to Triple-A Buffalo.
