In this week’s Exit Philosophy, as the Blue Jays head towards their first Fall Classic appearance in 32 years, Griff and Mal break down the team’s League Championship Series win vs. the M’s, from George Springer's historic three-run blast in Game 7, to Mad Max’s aggressive meltdown getting in the face of manager John Schneider. And where was Seattle’s dominant closer, Andres Munoz, to face the top of the Jays order with eight outs to go and the tying run on second, a series win for the taking? What about the highly regarded M’s rotation when they were most needed. Moving on to the World Series, should Bo Bichette be activated for Joey Loperfido, even if he’s only able to swing the bat once per game? Hey fans, Shohei Ohtani’s flight has finally landed, unfortunately, it’s still not to sign with the Jays. Is Trey Yesavage the man for Games 2-6 of the World Series vs. the Dodgers if the Jays expect to win. Is the Jays' bullpen still an Achilles Heel, and how does it match up against the Dodgers' disappointing group of relievers? Has Vlad done enough in this postseason to cement his legacy at 26 years old? Plus, a quick head-to-head comparison between the Jays and Dodgers. All this and more.
