On the night after one Ryan put up an amazing performance for the Blue Jays, it's up to another Ryan to match him! Ryan Andrews opens the episode with by gushing about the start Ryan Borucki turned in against the already-relegated Orioles, and how the young lefty was able to assert himself on the mound. With performances like this, Andrews defies anyone who tells them that Borucki is not meant to be a fixture of the Blue Jays rotation for the foreseeable future and how important it is for the team to get pieces like Borucki into place. The middle segment looks at the hitting the Blue Jays have gotten, and Andrews has praise for the likes of Rowdy Tellez, Danny Jansen, and yes, Kevin Pillar. The Nova Scotian notes how important it was for the younger bats to generate early runs without the help of the long ball, and how that approach is going to be crucial to the club's success. Jansen gets particular praise for stabilizing a position that has been a black hole offensively for the Blue Jays. The final third looks ahead to tonight's second game against Baltimore, and starter Aaron Sanchez. Andrews stresses the importance of Sanchez continue the trends that they have shown in September, avoiding needless walks and getting back to setting up the fastball the way they did against the Red Sox, and how the Blue Jays will use the rest of the month getting Sanchez back into ace form. The lineup, particularly Justin Smoak gets a mention as likely options against Dylan Bundy. Follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnJays and follow the host @NeoAC18!
