Episode Notes

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker recap Dylan Cease's successful outing following his IL stint against the Phillies, if he has a case to make the All-Star game, why Brandon Valenzuela has solidified his case to remain on the main roster once Alejandro Kirk comes back, George Springer's return to lead-off after Vladimir Guerrero Jr. held his spot for one game, what Vlad Jr. should focus on during his at-bats and expectations for Max Scherzer first start since his injury. Then, ESPN insider and host of Sources Tell, Jeff Passan (30:45), joins the guys to chat about why we haven't seen the best of the Blue Jays yet through June, where Louis Varland ranks among the best closers and relivers this season, Springer's future role, and if MLB will replicate a similar salary cap structure to other leagues.
