Show notes
Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker begin their second hour listening to Blue Jays' manager John Schneider's pre-game availability ahead of their first series post-All-Star break against the visiting Chicago White Sox, updates on Max Scherzer, the next steps for Addison Barger, if Jesús Sánchez and Yimi Garcia are closer to a return, the implementation of putting two catchers in the lineup and second-half goals. Then, ESPN's and host of 'Sources Tell,' Jeff Passan joins the guys (27:05) to chat about the new format for the Home Run Derby, if U.S. politicians would involve themselves with ending of a potential work stoppage in the MLB, the trade market for Francisco Lindor, how aggressive Toronto could be at the deadline, and why the league is restricting the use of iPads in the dugouts.
