BJN Radio – Ep. 240: Spencer Horwitz’s big week, Wild Card races, the Tank-a-Thon, and more!
The Toronto Blue Jays had a difficult week against two playoff hopefuls in the National League, as they dropped four of five games against the Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves.
We talked about Spencer Horwitz’s big week, which saw the rookie mash three home runs and increase his on-base plus slugging percentage to .827 on the season. We also talked about the continued struggles of Toronto’s decimated bullpen, as Chad Green blew a couple of saves against Philly and Atlanta.
After that, we took a look around the AL and NL Wild Card races and at the Tank-a-Thon standings for the 2025 MLB Draft Lottery. Finally, we looked ahead to this week’s series against the red-hot New York Mets.
