  • Love the show and Jays talk plus but….

    Kaitlyn has to go. She provides nothing… also too bad that Julia Kruiz left Jays talk plus.

  • What was the point again?

    Why does Julie use word "obviously" so much? If so obvious, why do we need analysts? Right?

    ..and Kaitlyn! ...when does she breath?

  • I just can’t…

    Please remove Kaitlyn from the show. It’s painful to listen to her be unprepared and repeat everything Sho says five or six times. Will not listen when she is hosting, this is why I cancelled The Athletic. Bring back Julia! Thanks.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

JTP: Matt Wilkinson, Yankees Preview & Are The Jays Back?
Q: How do you balance your role with the Giants and your training with Team Canada discussions, given your unique path?
Matt talked about staying humble, learning from veterans, and embracing a sponge-like approach to improve while maintaining his own pitching identity.
JTP: Matt Wilkinson, Yankees Preview & Are The Jays Back?
Q: What was that day like for you, Matt, making your Major League debut?
Matt described it as overwhelming and surreal, especially stepping onto the mound in Cleveland, but he felt confident after facing a familiar opponent in Parker Messick and appreciated the support from family and friends.
JTP: Bullpen Trust & Royals Preview + Vernon Wells!
Q: What has changed for the Royals to win eight in a row?
The Royals have restructured the lineup around healthy veterans and put their depth pieces in better matchups, which has led to more productive at-bats and improved run prevention.
JTP: Bullpen Trust & Royals Preview + Vernon Wells!
Q: How realistic is it for the Blue Jays to make a late push given the remaining schedule?
It hinges on consistent hitting and bullpen stability; if the offense keeps producing and the pitching staff avoids bullpen fatigue, the odds can rise as they capitalize on 18 of 30 games against teams they're chasing.
JTP: Should Vladdy Move Down the Batting Order?
Q: Should Vlad Guerrero Jr. be moved down the batting order, and where would the best spot be if so?
Both hosts and analysts considered a move to fifth or sixth in the lineup as a potential way to spark the lineup, with Bateman, Lukes, and Kirk providing balance at the top, and Vlad landing in the middle to maximize run opportunities without anchoring the top of the order. The consensus leaned toward a cautious, case-by-case approach rather than a fixed rule, emphasizing current form, opponent, and health.
