Podcast appearances and mentions of jake cook

Randy Watkins returns to the Crooked Letter pod to discuss The Open, where the weather will be wet, windy and coolish at Royal Portrush. Scottie Scheffler will be the betting favorite, but the Europeans, including Rory McIlroy, definitely will have a home-course advantage. The recent Major League Draft also will be discussed.  

Blake Murphy and Julia Kreuz recap the weekends action, including John Schneider's ejection, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s struggles and Jose Berrios' start. Matt Vasgersian (29:19) tees up the All-Star festivities. Afterwards, Shi Davidi (49:39) and Geoff Pontes (1:14:47) get you familiar with the newest Blue Jays in Jojo Parker and Jake Cook as well as lookahead to what's next for Toronto on Day 2 of the MLB Draft. 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 affiliate.
