Soriano Set for Jays Debut + State of the Phillies with Ruben Amaro Jr.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker get set for the Blue Jays' weekend series against the Philadelphia Phillies. They discuss how the Jays can attack Phillies starter Zach Wheeler in the opener and what to expect from José Soriano in his Blue Jays debut. Then, they look at the American League standings, the Jays' outlook in the Wild Card race, and whether the Red Sox are now the team to beat. Later, former Phillies GM and host of 'The Phillies Show' Ruben Amaro Jr. stops by (27:28) to share his early impressions of deadline addition Luis Arráez, why the team has been so streaky in 2026, and where Bryce Harper stands among the franchise's all-time greatest players.
