So after 162 games, the Blue Jays' trip to the playoffs was short-lived; only lasting two games after getting swept in the Wild Card by the Minnesota Twins. To start the final hour of today’s show, hosts Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning bring on World Series champion Jonathan Papelbon to get his take on what happened with Toronto this week. The former MLB closer shares why he thinks the Jays upset the baseball gods by pulling José Berríos too early in the game, before getting into the team's performance compared to their lofty payroll this season. To wrap up, the morning duo give their final thoughts on what went down in the Twin Cities yesterday, before turning the page to look at what’s next for the organization (28:37).
