#62 – All Star Blue Jays
The Blue Jays head into the All Star break on a much brighter note than their western road trip. The week started off in turmoil with the firing of Charlie Montoyo but other than a brief blip on Thursday against Kansas City the Jays put up a strong week. On top of the Blue Jays already named to the All Star game, both Santiago Espinal and Jordan Romano were named as late additions to the rosters. Matt & Steve did a home run derby draft to see who has the best home run "team" - who will come out as the winner?
Home Run Derby Draft:
1 Kyle Schwarber (PHI) Matt VS 8 Albert Pujols (STL) Steve
2 Pete Alonso (NYM) Matt VS 7 Ronald Acuña Jr. (ATL) Steve
3 Kyle Seager (TEX) Matt VS 6 Julio Rodriguez (SEA) Matt
4 Juan Soto (WAS) Steve VS 5 Jose Ramirez (CLE) Steve
