Blue Jays Happy Hour - Episode 89: A gloriously uneventful week (in which to do some over/unders!)

Just a quick one to let you know about our latest podcast episode and where you can hear us!

Not a whole lot of consequence has happened over the last week of Toronto Blue Jays spring training baseball — which is exactly what you want at this time of year! No major injuries (Vlad’s fine, he doesn’t count). No big controversies (you can talk about Nathan Lukes getting called out on a pitch clock violation all you want; we didn’t). No performances either so sublimely good or disgustingly bad as to warrant mention in more than just passing.

No real change to the major storylines in camp, either. Well, save for Vlad’s knee inflammation. There’s that, there’s Kikuchi Watch, there’s Addison Barger and Ricky Tiedemann, and that’s really about it. Which is why, after touching on those, we decided this week to do something fun: choosing the over or under on the ZiPS wRC+ projection for each of the Blue Jays’ lineup regulars!

Plus, how the Jays’ pitching staff graded out in 2022 by the newly released Stuff+ metrics available at FanGraphs, WBC talk, better sound, and so much more!

Have a listen!
