The Blue Jays are making one final push. Toronto improved to 51-59 with a 3-1 win over the Cardinals, moving within 4.5 games of the final American League Wild Card spot. But with the trade deadline looming, every win raises the same question: Can the Blue Jays convince themselves to keep this group together?

We'll also discuss Kevin Gausman's future with the organization. Could tonight's start be his last in a Blue Jays uniform? Where does he rank among the greatest starting pitchers in franchise history? And what would it mean if Toronto decided to move one of the faces of its rotation? Also on today's show: ⚾ Dylan Cease continues his Cy Young-calibre season ⚾ George Springer's recent surge and why contenders could be calling ⚾ Jeff Passan's latest report on Toronto's trade deadline plans With the deadline just around the corner, this could be one of the biggest weekends of the Blue Jays' season.

From 07/29 Hour 1: The Washington Nationals are in the middle of hosting the Toronto Blue Jays at Nats Park. Washington dropped game one so it was imperative that they picked up the win last night.

Starting pitcher Tarik Skubal took the mound on Wednesday at Comerica Park with his future very much up in the air. With the trade deadline rapidly approaching this Monday, many in the stands and around the baseball world wondered if this would be the two-time Cy Young Award winner's final start for the Detroit Tigers. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why this could be the end of the line for Skubal in Detroit, as the Tigers continue to mull whether they will trade their ace despite still being in a postseason push. The guys then determine which team makes the most sense to acquire Skubal and what a potential trade package could look like if the Tigers decide to pull the trigger before Monday's 6 p.m. ET deadline. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan try to identify the one player that the New York Mets, San Francisco Giants, Kansas City Royals, Toronto Blue Jays, and other probable sellers will trade by Monday, and why now could be the perfect time for each club to think about the future. They close the show by taking a look at the current state of the Seattle Mariners following their first win at Dodger Stadium since 2009, Shohei Ohtani's biceps becoming a bit of a concern and an early look at the upcoming 30 for 30 podcast about the Ohtani-Ippei betting scandal. 1:58 – The Opener: Skubal's farewell? 10:48 – Who are the Skubal buyers? 34:02 – We Need To Talk About: Which players are the sellers trading? 53:23 – Around The League: Mariners vibe check 1:03:24 – Shohei Ohtani has a biceps problem 1:07:11 – Ohtani-Ippei 30 for 30 podcast Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

The Blue Jays are on the brink. After an 8-6 loss to the Nationals, Toronto falls to 49-59, sits further behind in the Wild Card race, and with the trade deadline just days away, the biggest question is becoming impossible to ignore: Is it finally time to sell? On game preview 109 of Flight Deck, Dan Riccio breaks down a disastrous outing from Shane Bieber that may have completely changed his trade value, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s injury, and what another frustrating loss means for the Blue Jays' deadline plans. Dan will also discuss whether Bieber's six-walk first inning officially takes him off the trade market, why Toronto's inability to capitalize with runners in scoring position continues to haunt them, and whether Trey Yesavage can give the Blue Jays exactly what they need in the series finale: a true stopper performance. Also on today's show: ⚾ Kazuma Okamoto ties the Blue Jays rookie home run record, Brendan Little's impressive relief outing ⚾ Can Trey Yesavage bounce back after an inconsistent July? ⚾ Where could Kevin Gausman be traded before the deadline? ⚾ Could the Cubs or Braves emerge as realistic landing spots for Blue Jays veterans? With a taxed bullpen, all eyes turn to Trey Yesavage. Can he deliver six-plus innings and help the Blue Jays salvage the series, or are we watching the final days before a major deadline sell-off?

Find Paddy on Instagram & the Toughness Podcast here. His Book will be out March of 2027!  Quick recap The Elevate Podcast featured Paddy Steinfurt, a performance and pressure coach, discussing his transition from professional Australian football to working with elite athletes and professionals across various high-pressure fields. Paddy explained the physiological effects of pressure, focusing on hormones like cortisol, dopamine, and serotonin, and how they impact performance. He shared insights into the challenges of applying positive psychology in high-performance environments, highlighting the importance of balancing optimism with reality. Paddy recounted stories from his work with athletes like DeMarco Murray and Patrick Mahomes, emphasizing the role of trust, consistency, and character in coaching. He also discussed practical techniques for managing focus and stress, such as attention training, and shared personal travel hacks for maintaining performance. The conversation concluded with Paddy reflecting on what brings him joy in his work, which is the gratitude and positive impact he sees in those he helps.   Summary AFL Player to Performance Coach Tyler interviewed Paddy Steinfurt for the Elevate Podcast, discussing Paddy's background transitioning from professional Australian Football League (AFL) player to a performance coach working with high-level athletes across multiple sports including MLB, NBA, NFL, and FIFA World Cups. Paddy explained his journey from a seven-year professional career that ended due to surgeries to pursuing a Master's in Positive Psychology at University of Pennsylvania, which led to his current work as a "pressure coach" helping athletes and professionals manage performance-related stress. The conversation began to explore Paddy's 2015 article "The Inner Game" about balancing mental health and high performance in sports, though the transcript ended before this topic was fully discussed. Mental Health in Sports Discussion Paddy discussed the complexities of mental health in sports, noting that while there is increased awareness and discussion about mental wellness, there is a risk of over-sensitization that can prevent appropriate intervention. He emphasized the importance of distinguishing between performance frustration and actual mental health conditions, sharing his approach from previous roles with the Philadelphia Eagles and Toronto Blue Jays where he focused on covering all aspects of performance while being careful not to mix mental health issues with performance concerns. The conversation ended as Tyler began asking about hormones related to high performance, but the transcript ended before Paddy could respond to this question. Cortisol and Pressure Hormonal Effects Paddy explained how cortisol, often referred to as the stress hormone, plays a significant role under pressure rather than during general stress. He described how cortisol can lead to increased levels of dopamine and norepinephrine, affecting decision-making and emotional responses under pressure. Paddy also mentioned that this hormonal imbalance can cause difficulties in focusing and making balanced decisions. Stress and Mental Health Effects Paddy discussed the potential negative effects of sustained high-stress environments on mental health, explaining how it can lead to depletion of serotonin and link to conditions like burnout and post-traumatic stress. He shared an anecdote about implementing positive psychology techniques with an NFL team, specifically mentioning an interaction with player DeMarco Murray who approached thinking differently about stress and recovery. Paddy observed that high-performing individuals sometimes resist positive psychology practices because they know that feeling good all the time is not always necessary for peak performance. High-Performance Psychology Approach Paddy discussed his approach to working with high-performance individuals, noting that the best operators often reject traditional positive psychology techniques because they focus on immediate task execution rather than emotional management. He explained the need for a balanced approach that combines both emotional handling and optimism, which he terms "3D thinking" using both "rose colored glasses" and a "blue lens" perspective. Paddy emphasized the importance of psychological safety and team connection in high-performance environments, suggesting that support and compassion from teammates can enhance willpower and help athletes maintain focus on their goals rather than just personal comfort. Building Trust with Athletes Paddy and Tyler discussed the importance of building trust with athletes, with Paddy explaining that trust is built on three C's: character, competence, and consistency. Paddy shared a story about Patrick Mahomes from his college years, highlighting Mahomes' reliability, openness, and willingness to engage in challenging exercises as key qualities that made him stand out among other athletes. Sports Psychology and Performance Techniques Paddy discussed his work in sports psychology, sharing insights about attention training techniques and how he helped athletes like Patrick Mahomes and TJ McConnell manage their mental focus. He explained his travel hacks for managing jet lag, including proper pillow management, exercise, and careful substance management. When asked about what brings him joy in his work, Paddy emphasized the satisfaction of helping people improve and receiving their gratitude, citing examples from his time as a physical therapist and coach.

Tampa Bay Rays at Toronto Blue Jays by Tony T. Seymour's 27.9% strikeout rate gives Tampa Bay swing-and-miss upside, but his 30.4% ground-ball rate and 1.6 HR/9 create vulnerability when hitters elevate. His 34 appearances against only seven starts also suggest a flexible workload history rather than a conventional full-season rotation pattern.

The 2026 Boston Red Sox have given their fans quite the ride over the past four months. After a rough start to the season that saw manager Alex Cora lose his job, they now find themselves on a 13-game winning streak and suddenly in a wild card spot. They're also just seven games out of first place in the AL East. Is a division title in the cards? On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the historic run Boston has been on, including sweeping their rivals, the Tampa Bay Rays, this past weekend. They highlight how the Red Sox bullpen has been incredibly strong during this stretch, as well as the offensive contributions from Willson Contreras, Wilyer Abreu and Caleb Durbin. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan discuss the surprising news that Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani will put pitching on hold for the rest of the season as he battles a leg injury, and whether Pete Crow-Armstrong could overtake the Japanese star for the NL MVP award. They also break down the Toronto Blue Jays getting a reality check from the Chicago White Sox this past weekend, the Milwaukee Brewers sweeping the Miami Marlins and recap all the other action from around baseball.   1:15 - The Opener: Red Sox win streak 21:54 - We Need To Talk About: Ohtani steps off the mound 32:52 - PCA vs. Ohtani for MVP? 39:39 - How Sweep It Is: Brewers sweep Marlins 52:13 - Blue Jays get a reality check 55:32 - Field Report: Skenes guts it out vs. Guardians 1:01:56 - How Sweep It Is: Weekend recap Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Tampa Bay Rays at Toronto Blue Jays by Tony T. Dylan Cease owns the stronger strikeout-minus-walk profile, while Dylan Cease has generated the higher ground-ball rate. Dylan Cease has allowed fewer home runs per nine innings, an important separator when traffic builds or the game reaches a power-heavy portion of either lineup.

A series loss to the White Sox raises the question: will the Blue Jays have to sell? Ben shares some thoughts on the weekend  (1:37) then looks ahead at the Jays' deadline decision (11:55).

Griffin Warner talks betting for Friday. Griffin Warner returns with a new episode of the What I Bet Podcast on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed from the Pregame.com Podcast Network, diving into a loaded Friday, July 17th Major League Baseball card while riding a strong recent stretch of 5 and 2 in his last 7 picks, 7 and 3 in his last 10, and 10 and 5 in his last 15. The episode opens with an early matinee between the Tampa Bay Rays and Boston Red Sox, featuring Griffin Jax against rookie left hander Jake Bennett, before moving into the marquee matchup of the night as the Los Angeles Dodgers visit the New York Yankees with Roki Sasaki opposing Gerrit Cole, a game complicated by the possible absence of Shohei Ohtani and the continued absence of Aaron Judge. Warner works methodically through the rest of the card, breaking down Jared Jones against Gavin Williams as the Pittsburgh Pirates travel to face the Cleveland Guardians, a matchup that becomes central to the episode. He also covers Anthony Kay and the first place Chicago White Sox against Spencer Miles and the Toronto Blue Jays, Cal Quantrill and the Texas Rangers against a red hot Chris Sale and the Atlanta Braves, and Sandy Alcantara leading the Miami Marlins against Logan Henderson and the Milwaukee Brewers. From there, Warner turns to Bailey Ober and the Minnesota Twins against Colin Rea and the Chicago Cubs, citing possible wind conditions at Wrigley Field, along with Dean Kremer and the Baltimore Orioles against Peter Lambert and a Houston Astros bullpen bolstered by the return of closer Josh Hader. He continues through Michael King and the San Diego Padres against Seth Lugo and the Kansas City Royals, Brady Singer and the Cincinnati Reds against Gabriel Hughes and the Colorado Rockies, Troy Melton and the Detroit Tigers against Reid Detmers and the Los Angeles Angels, Cade Cavalli and the Washington Nationals against Gage Jump and an Athletics club currently playing in Sacramento, and closes the card breakdown with Landen Roupp and the San Francisco Giants against a surging Bryce Miller and the Seattle Mariners. Along the way, Warner shares a major promotional code, base25, offering 25 percent off any purchase at Pregame.com including his own season long MLB All Access package, dropping the price from 349 dollars to 262 dollars before the offer expires on July 27th, while noting he is up 21 and a half units of MLB profit on the season. The episode closes with Warner's official best bet, backing the Cleveland Guardians and Gavin Williams at minus 129 after building his case around Cleveland's pitching depth and bullpen advantage over Pittsburgh throughout the show. Listeners can find new episodes of the What I Bet Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify through the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed on the Pregame.com Podcast Network, with daily updates from Warner available at Real_G_Warner.

Daniele Franceschi and Zack Bodenstein kick off Friday morning by celebrating the Toronto Blue Jays return of action tonight against the Chicago White Sox! They dive into the three major storylines they're watching closely in the second half, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s outlook heading down the stretch, the team's reliance on the bullpen, and how to get more length from the starters as the season progress. The guys also take a look at the statue of Joe Carter being unveiled on Sunday and ask which other Blue Jay would deserve a statue at Rogers Centre? After the break, the guys listen back to LeBron James' comments as he navigates his free agency and debate what factors are playing deciding roles that might not have earlier in his career. The guys question how long he will drag this out for and why is Adam Silver delaying the 2026-27 schedule release until LeBron decides.

They also discuss Messi's legacy and the potential for a new star in Lamine Yamal. The episode wraps up with final predictions for the World Cup final.

Griffin Warner talks sports betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner delivers a leaner but sharp episode of What I Bet built around the only two events worth betting on this Tuesday, the World Cup semifinal between Spain and France at AT&T Stadium in Arlington and the Major League Baseball All Star Game at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Griffin opens at 0:32 by setting the stage for Spain and France, two nations that entered the tournament as co favorites at 5 to 1 odds as of July 3rd but have since diverged, with France now installed as the clear favorite needing a win in regulation to cover the spread. At 1:17 Griffin lays out his case for Spain, arguing that their possession based style works identically whether they are favored or underdogs, a trait he considers rare in knockout soccer, and noting the team is getting healthier at the right time. At 1:33 he acknowledges France's individual talent, led by Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele, both of whom scored from outside the box in a 2 to 0 quarterfinal win over Morocco discussed at 2:03, while questioning whether longtime manager Didier Deschamps offers much beyond simply fielding the more talented roster. By 2:18 Griffin lands on his headline soccer pick, backing Spain as a quarter goal underdog and urging listeners to grab the number immediately before it shifts, explaining that the quarter goal split between a pick em portion and a plus one half portion protects bettors with a partial cash return if the match extends into extra time, which he expects given Spain's discipline defending against counterattacks. At 2:48 he shares his lean on the two and a half goal total, expecting the public to favor the over given the star power on both rosters while he sees a low scoring, controlled match shaping up instead, landing at 3:19 on a combined recommendation of Spain under the total and Spain to advance outright near plus 130 depending on the sportsbook. The show pivots to baseball at 3:49, with Griffin outlining the All Star Game lines, a National League team favored at minus 128 against the American League at plus 116, and a total of eight runs priced at minus 104 to the under and minus 116 to the over. At 4:20 he explains his general approach to exhibition baseball, trusting that the sport's best pitchers will suppress even the hottest first half hitters, despite acknowledging Philadelphia's shorter outfield dimensions raise the risk profile for an under play. At 4:50 Griffin spends real time on the Toronto Blue Jays' dominant presence in All Star voting following last season's seven game World Series run, highlighting Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s selection as the American League's starting first baseman despite a career worst first half that included stretches of just five home runs, and wondering aloud whether a taxing offseason program contributed to the decline. At 5:05 he notes Blue Jays manager John Schneider is running the American League dugout, tying the assignment to Toronto's pennant winning season, and projects a National League win that should mean fewer total at bats and a lower final score. After a quick promotional break at 5:35 pointing listeners toward pregame dot com and the CUP15 discount code for 15 dollars off any package, including Griffin's World Cup All Access pass covering the tournament's final four match days for 60 dollars instead of 75, Griffin previews an upcoming return to full scale baseball coverage once the World Cup wraps this Sunday and marks the milestone of six years and 64 episodes of Pregame Network podcasting. He closes at 6:51 with his top play of the night, the under eight runs total in the All Star Game, built on the theory that elite pitching wins out over hot hitting even in a hitter friendly ballpark, and offers the under first five innings at 7:07 as a higher variance alternative for bettors wanting extra action, reasoning that without extra innings or the Manfred Man rule extending the game the first five inning number offers a cleaner read on true scoring pace. Griffin signs off previewing Tuesday's World Cup semifinal as the centerpiece of the show's next episode and thanking listeners for their continued support of What I Bet and the wider Straight Outta Vegas AM lineup on the Pregame Network.
