Ben is solo and starts with the host of Blair & Barker and Jays Talk, Jeff Blair from the Rogers Centre, who previews the series against the Tampa Bay Rays. He shares his concern levels on José Berríos, his thoughts on Alek Manoah's early season struggles and Ricky Tiedemann's spectacular performance last night in Double A. Pat Donovan from the Pat & Aaron Show on WDAE in Tampa joins Ben to talk about the vibe down in Tampa Bay ahead of the Lightning playoff push and Rays perfect start (30:52). He breaks down how the Rays routinely outperform expectations despite a low payroll and if he thinks the hot batting is sustainable.
