Guests: Blue Jays pitcher Trey Yesavage, prospect pitcher Josh Stephan

 

This week in Deep Left Field, we go over an up-and-down "week that was" for the Blue Jays, who find themselves a game and a half out of a playoff spot with nine games to play as they head into their final road trip of the regular season.

 

We also take a trip down to the farm, where we catch up with rookie Trey Yesavage, who made what he hopes will be his only rehab start for the Buffalo Bisons on September 15. The right-hander tells us what he thought of the five-batter, 34-pitch outing.

 

As well, we'll introduce you to Josh Stephan, one of several young starting pitchers acquired by the Jays at the August 3 trade deadline. He came over from the Texas Rangers, along with Josh Smith, for Adam Macko.
