Blue Jays Happy Hour - Episode 111: Being Bob Nightengale

Should Blue Jays fans be afraid of the Seattle Mariners? Do we believe anything about Bob Nightengale’s suggestion that John Schneider’s job could be in jeopardy if the Jays miss the playoffs? Would Ross Atkins actually bring the kind of heat onto himself that he’d receive by firing another manager? Will anybody remember a 1999 Spike Jonze movie that only made $23 million at the box office?

Except for maybe the last one, my guess is that the answer to each of these questions is no. But that didn’t stop us from talking about them all during this week’s episode of Blue Jays Happy Hour!

Plus: Paul DeJong, the Jays’ dominant bullpen, YuCy Kikuchi, José Berríos, choosing Hyun Jin Ryu over Alek Manoah, the 2013 season for some reason, and so much more.

Have a listen!
