Brett Bateman Gets the Call and Cease's Dominance with John Schneider
About this episode
Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider (2:21) joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker to discuss calling up outfielder and Jays' 20th ranked prospect Brett Bateman, why he doesn't envision moving Vlad Jr. down the lineup, José Soriano's club debut, Dylan Cease's recent run of dominance, Anthony Santander's recovery, Trey Yesavage update, and if a path is open for Ricky Tiedemann to get to the Majors. Then, Sportsnet's Ben Shulman joins the guys (27:36) to share his expectations for Soriano's Jays' debut, why Alejandro Kirk has moved up into the two-hole, if there's caution around Louis Varland's control in the 9th inning, Spencer Miles' usage, and if Shane Bieber is turning the corner.
