After a long three days, I'm back from Chicago and the Mariners got their doors blown off in Houston. What's the concern level on Julio Rodriguez's back and George Kirby's tough debut?And what are we looking for over the rest of the series in Houston? Also, why are teams having more success running on the M's this year? I talk to Dan Wilson and Mitch Garver about holding runners and you here those conversations. Also, Trent Thornton is out with appendicitis and he details a scary health situation.Is Cole Young coming up soon? And Brady is reminded of why he hates watching Lance McCullers pitch for the 'Stros.

With the Mariners having a lot of success over their recent stretch of a 9-series winning streak, how much of the credit should be going to the coaches? Is there any chance the Mariners success on offense is rubbing off on the Seahawks for this next season especially on the O-Line? // The Mariners are starting their series with the Blue Jays who have been on a terrible streak offensively, should be a series where there’s no excuse to losing to the Blue Jays? // Take Two: Troy Taylor recalled, Trent Thornton placed on 15-day IL with appendicitis…Mariners and Blue Jays have played 8 straight 1-run games in Seattle. Sam Haggerty is batting leadoff and starting in centerfield for the Rangers in their opener today in Detroit…A’s host the Yankees for three // Luis Castillo gets the start for the Mariners tonight, what do you want to see out of him tonight? Which of the starters in the Mariners rotation are you the most confident in right now? // Around the MLB: Rafael Devers who was taken away from 3B for the Red Sox to be a full time DH is upset that he is now being asked to play 1B after Tristan Casas went down with a season ending injury. Devers is refusing to play first saying that they told him he is a DH and is not someone who can just play every position

Above you'll see a picture of Danny Jansen, who was barely mentioned in this week's episode of Blue Jays Happy Hour, but probably could have been! Jansen's been swinging a hot bat lately, and is part of the reason the mood of the fan base is doesn't seem as bad as it could be after a 3-3 west coast road trip that just as easily could have been 6-0 or 1-5.Anyway, what did we talk about on this week's episode? With the trade deadline coming up, naturally much of our focus was there. Plus, we got into those ever-present vibes, Trent Thornton, the Génesis Cabrera acquistion, Jay Jackson's surprising emergence, Alek Manoah's progress, Shohei Ohtani, payroll stuff, 2009, and so much more!Have a listen!You can find us in all the usual places, such as Apple Podcasts……as well as Spotify, and others.

Even in the virtual realm, the Plakata bombs still sound so sweet.A.J. Andrews wishes all her trans siblings a happy Trans Day of Visibility and talks about how happy she is to be able to celebrate it fully. She notes that MLB has decided to at least pony up some money to pay to its players, but is the $400 per week to minor leaguers enough to live on? Sadly, it probably is compared to what they usually get. She also talks about how Toronto mayor John Tory confirmed that sports would be allowed while public events would not until June 30, and how that makes her feel.On the virtual diamond, the Cincinnati Reds are in town and the Blue Jays have split the first two games thanks to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s second multi-homer game of the season. She talks about how important both he and Travis Shaw have been to keeping the Jays offense afloat while many other bats struggle, including leadoff man Bo Bichette. She also discusses Hyun-Jin Ryu's first win as a Jay, Ken Giles' first save, Trent Thornton's acceptable start, and what needs to be done at the bottom of the lineup. Plus, where did that ball that Derek Fisher hit end up?Follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnJays and follow the host @A_J_Andrews!Subscribe on Himalaya, Google Play, Spotify, and iTunes!This episode is sponsored by Jays From the Couch, Withings, WealthSimple, Postmates and the Locked On Podcast Network.

Red-eyed already, it's a late night edition of the pod before an early flight! So quality is coming!A.J. Andrews sits bleary eyed ahead of her flight to Toronto and discusses the almost unworldly Trent Thornton outing on Wednesday against the Red Sox. The new curveball grip looked nasty, and Clay Buchholz's off-the-field influence alone may have earned him another contract based on his work with Butters.However, she also has to talk about tonight's game, and the abominable play that was on display. From Buchholz missing his pitches to Billy McKinney's misplays to Derek Fisher in general, it was horrid and the 7-4 scoreline was generous.

Recording while it's still daylight outside? What a novel concept!A.J. Andrews takes advantage of the early recording time to do a preview of the Blue Jays' upcoming series with the Yankees. She focuses on the starters and which one gives the Jays the best chance of stealing a win (hint: it's the guy who was talked about earlier this week!)The second half notes the absence of Trent Thornton from his spot in the rotation, and Andrews offers wild speculation that the Jays may start managing his innings give he recent run of form against teams not from Baltimore. Also, she wonders where Zack Godley will fit in, and assumes that it will be either in Thornton's slot, or the start after against Texas.Follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnJays and follow the host @A_J_Andrews!Subscribe on Himalaya, Google Play, Spotify, and iTunes!This episode is sponsored by Jays From the Couch, Postmates. and the Locked On Podcast Network.
