He also takes stock of where the team stands heading into a critical stretch (24:13), talks about the Blue Jays heading to the all-star game (42:51), and looks at who the club selected in MLB’s draft (50:11).

Not all is well with the Blue Jays as the all-star break looms. But are they any worse off than the similarly middling competition around the American League?
