Blue Jays fell behind early and never fully recovered in a 5-2 loss to the Phillies, dropping to 32-35 on the season. On episode 11 of Flight Deck, Nick Alberga breaks down a rough outing from Patrick Corbin, who allowed five runs in three innings as Philadelphia jumped out to an early lead. We discuss the Blue Jays' inability to capitalize against Cristopher Sánchez and why the bullpen once again deserves credit for keeping Toronto within striking distance. The bigger conversation, centers around Vladimir Guerrero Jr. After another hitless performance, we examine his recent struggles and ask the question every Blue Jays fan is wondering: when will the star first baseman break out of this slump? Next, Dylan Cease returns from the injured list to face Phillies ace Zack Wheeler in what feels like a must-win game for Toronto. We also discuss the roster decisions looming with Max Scherzer expected back soon and what Adam Macko's demotion means after an impressive stint in the majors. Can Cease provide a spark? Can the Blue Jays finally get some run support? And can Vlad turn things around before the Yankees come to town? We close with Nick's picks presented by bet365.

Guests: Rehabbing Blue Jays starter Trey Yesavage, Reliever Brendon Little, Team Canada/Buffalo Bisons pitcher Adam Macko This week in Deep Left Field, we look back at a Blue Jays week that included a three-game winning streak but also saw the closer controversy take another step forward, likely with Jeff Hoffman losing his job, at least for a while.

Welcome to the start of the 2025 podcast season! As always, we start off with some of the big news items from the past few weeks, then we head to the minor leagues for a trio of guests. Dawgs Academy and Okotoks Dawgs alum Matt Lloyd checks in after a great first season with the Double-A Springfield Cardinals, Vauxhall Academy product Adam Macko looks back at a year that started with the Double-A New Hampshire Fisher Cats and ended with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons, and St. Francis Xavier Academy grad Matt Coutney reflects on a 2024 split between the High-A Tri-City Dust Devils and the Double-A Rocket City Trash Pandas. 4:21 - Matt Lloyd 19:23 - Adam Macko 43:12 - Matt Coutney
Zach Worden (@Worden_Zach) is joined by New Hampshire Fisher Cats broadcaster Ian Unsworth (@iunzy) to break down the season that was for the Toronto Blue Jays' Double-A affiliate, diving into players like Adam Macko, Rainer Nunez and Devonte Brown, evaluating the performance of some trade deadline acquisitions and more.
The second half of the Minor League Baseball season seemed to have just started and teams are getting ready to put their feet up for a breather as they enter All-Star Game weekend. With the trade deadline coming soon after, the Blue Jays' minor league broadcasters are gearing up for various roster machinations that could affect their teams. The episode starts with the Voice of the Buffalo Bisons Pat Malacaro inviting long-time New Hampshire Fisher Cats broadcaster Bob Lipman to join him to call some triple-A games in Worcester. Then, Pat reports on his team, who have been in a funk. However, things are looking up as Riley Tirotta continues to be consistent at the plate, newcomer Gabriel Cancel has had a white-hot start, and Chad Dallas has returned to good health. Diving into Aaron Sanchez's return, Pat tells us that he is going through the process of learning how to become a new kind of pitcher now that he's not throwing as hard. From Manchester, Bob is joined by Chris Jared who showed off the Fisher Cats' 2011 Eastern League Trophy replica giveaway (Saturday, July 13). Nominative determinism (and the Cavan Biggio trade) have brought reliever Braydon Fisher to the 2024 Cats team where he has been showing off a curveball that could be better than Adam Macko's. Chris also tells us about Ryan McCarty on and off the field and Deveraux Harrison's success in their rotation, while Bob reassures us that Cade Doughty just needs some more time to settle into double-A life. With our host Tyler Zickel in Portland, Chris Georges has been handling the mic for the Vancouver Canadians this week. Since the second half, the C's have been red-hot with a 14-4 record to lead the second half standings. Chris and Tyler took this opportunity to heap praise on catchers Jackson Hornung and Robert Brooks. They are also looking at the success Payton Williams and Dasan Brown have been having and are thinking that they may be on their way to New Hampshire sooner rather than later. They also gawked at Grayson Thurman's splitter, which his teammates have rated as 80-grade. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Around The Nest is the Blue Jays' minor league podcast where the broadcasters from single-A all the way up to triple-A get together to talk about the performances of Blue Jays minor leaguers in the past two weeks. Pat Malacaro (AAA Buffalo Bisons) reported on his team's tough run of injuries, Nathan Lukes is doing everything well, Riley Tirotta's parents' special souvenir, and Yariel Rodríguez's rehab stint so far. Pat also provides an important update on Payton Henry's recovery: after being struck in the head by a backswing a week ago, he was able to see his teammates in the clubhouse on Thursday. Chris Jared (AA New Hampshire Fisher Cats) sees a starting rotation that's coming into its own, with Adam Macko leading with Michael Dominguez and Devereaux Harrison following closely behind. Eric Pardinho, who has had ups-and-downs on prospect status, is certainly on an upswing having not given up an earned run since late April. On the hitting side, Garret Spain has been slugging homers, Devonte Brown has been very even keeled, and Josh Kasevich's quick adaptability going up to double-A has surprised the Blue Jays organization. Chris Georges and host Tyler Zickel (high-A Vancouver Canadians) spoke about the C's impressive starting pitching the last couple of weeks, highlighting Chris McElvain's solid performance of late. They think Dasan Brown is close to a callup to New Hampshire, having found a grove and starting to take a lot of walks. They also shine a spotlight in leverage relievers Josh Mollerus and Anders Tolhurst. The Dunedin Blue Jays lead single-A teams with 40 team homers, Larry Larson (low-A Dunedin) tells us, led by Cristian Feliz, a three true outcomes first baseman who also happens to be a very friendly dude. Juaron “Whiffs” Watts-Brown has been very comfortable at this level; he had issues getting deep into games earlier this season due to walks, but has those in control and is now just striking out batters. Manuel Beltre's bat looks to be turning the corner and JJ Sanchez has been very effective for Dunedin as a hard-throwing lefty closer. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Around The Nest is the Blue Jays' minor league podcast where the broadcasters from up and down the farm system get together to talk about the performances of Blue Jays prospects in the past two weeks. This week, we welcome Chris Georges, the Vancouver Canadians' broadcast assistant, to the Nest. Chris G. is joined by Chris Jared of the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, Larry Larson of the Dunedin Blue Jays, and of course podcast host and the Voice of the Canadians, Tyler Zickel. The Fisher Cats have had solid pitching performances—like Adam Macko striking out nine Yard Goats—but have had weak run support (sound familiar). Overall, the team is still loose, believing that they are better than their 15-21 win-loss record. Before a rough start Friday evening, Trenton Wallace had been solid for New Hampshire, sporting a funky delivery. Alan Roden has struggled at the plate but has been working hard, one-on-one with manager Cesar Martin. The D-Jays batters had been taking a lot of walks earlier in the season, but had seemed to be little overeager lately. On the positive side, Christian Feliz and Yhoangel Aponte have been taking patient, encouraging at bats and lately, Manuel Beltre seems to have turned a corner, taking better at bats and getting a walkoff hit. On the negative side, Arjun Nimmala had been placed on the development list strikeouts have been piling up now that he's seeing more breaking balls. On the mound side, Juaron Watts-Brown has been displaying a nasty slider and an underrated change-up and Connor O'Halloran has demonstrated that he can grind through games in which he just didn't have his best stuff. Vancouver's Jace Bohrofen had been getting walks and making good contact but had not displayed home run power until this week when he hit two. Ryan McCarty has been delivering clutch hits for the Canadians and is seen as a guy with a big heart who is easy to root for. Japanese-Brazilian Raphael Ohashi has almost been perfect out of the bullpen, starting the season with 15 consecutive scoreless innings against five different Northwest League teams. Ohashi will be given a start in game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Hello Seattle Mariners fans! The crew Kate Preusser, Evan James and John Trupin are back to feast on mid-November hot stove cooking. Scott was shafted in the Manager of the Year voting in favor of Terry Francona, Julio Rodriguez was rightfully crowned Rookie of the Year and the Mariners have traded Erik Swanson and Adam Macko for Teoscar Hernández. It's a whirlwind start to the stove season and I would ask you faithful listeners, how would you rate these moves? Teoscar adds a real bat in an otherwise sparse outfield group, even if the defense is somewhat suspect. New bullpen arms Luke Weaver, Gabe Speier and Easton McGee start filling out “the pile”, but let us know if you have a dark horse in that group. Are you excited to see Isaiah Campbell attempt to wrestle away the title of “best stache in the northwest” from Gardner Minshew? How do you see his infusion of dad energy meshing with the team's existing vibe? Are you sad about Casey Sadler? Let us know in the comments. Lastly we look forward into the hot stove future and pick out some dates to mark on your calendars. The team has added a big piece, but the question of just how much better the squad is after the trade is an important one. How many wins would you say Teoscar adds? Was this the right move for this team to make instead of a free agent add? And do you think they have the resources to pull off another meaningful trade? Let the hot stove cook.

We asked for transactions, and here they are. The Blue Jays pulled the trigger on a big deal on Wednesday, sending Teoscar Hernandez to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for reliever Erik Swanson and Adam Macko. Teoscar had developed into an All-Star slugger and a beloved player during his career with the Blue Jays so seeing him go is a difficult pill to swallow. But that said, it was inevitable that changes were coming after Toronto's disappointing result during the post-season. We talked about what the Blue Jays lost in Teoscar, what they gained in Swanson and Macko, and what we can expect to happen next. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
