Guests: Blue Jays pitcher Eric Lauer, former Texas Rangers manager Jeff Banister   This week in Deep Left Field, we present two in-depth, long form, incredible conversations. First, we get to know left-hander Eric Lauer, who emerged seemingly out of nowhere to be arguably the Jays' best pitcher over the past couple of months, and inarguably the one they would be lost without at this point in the season. Then, we get a fresh perspective on the biggest Blue Jays moment of the 21st century. Current Arizona Diamondbacks bench coach Jeff Banister was managing the Texas Rangers when Jose Bautista hit his iconic BatFlip home run. He looks back on that moment - and shares the incredible story that led to him getting to the major leagues - and tries to convince us that Rougned Odor is a good guy.  

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 10-6 win over the Guardians to open the three-game series in Cleveland!

They also get into Eric Lauer allowing one run over 5.1 IP - has he permanently earned that fifth rotation spot? Plus, they discuss the bullpen usage - could that bite them with Max Scherzer up on Wednesday? The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
