Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Houston Astros 4-2 behind another big Kazuma Okamoto moment, and a bullpen that continues to be one of the biggest strengths of this team.
On Game Preview 79 of Flight Deck, Tyler Yaremchuk talks Dylan Cease's performance, Toronto's ability to chase Hunter Brown from the game and the defensive masterclass by the Blue Jays. We also dive into Kazuma Okamoto and his continued dominance this season, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. starting to generate power at the plate and Louis Varland's 16th save of the season.
Then, Tyler previews Shane Bieber’s start against the Astros and discuss Ross Atkins’ comments on the trade deadline, starting pitching upgrades, injuries, Jake Bloss, Rick Tiedemann, Yimi Garcia, Anthony Santander, and the state of the Blue Jays roster.
Can Toronto keep finding ways to win with the pitching staff carrying the load?
We finish with Tyler's picks presented by bet365. LIVE every game day one hour before first pitch right here on the Blue Jays Nation YouTube channel and on Instagram @BlueJaysNation.
