Matt Chapman is finally off the market, signing a three-year deal with the San Francisco Giants. But the $54-million price tag begs the question: Why didn't the Blue Jays sign him first? Mark, Bryson and Jacob discuss that, plus Alek Manoah's concerning start to spring training and Gerrit Cole's incomprehensible frustration over a Daniel Vogelbach home run.

After three long months, Mark, Bryson and Jacob are back and just in time to weigh in on the Shohei Ohtani sweepstakes, which are racing towards a conclusion. Are the Blue Jays actually favourites?

For the first time this season, we can reasonably entertain the question: Are the Toronto Blue Jays dead? Mark and Bryson discuss a brutal series against the Cleveland Guardians but agree this team still has life... for now. Also discussed: Davis Schneider's inexplicable playing time, Matt Chapman and Bo Bichette's potential injuries and the increasingly competitive wildcard race.

Paul DeJong is technically still a Blue Jay, but probably not for long. Toronto designated him for assignment after 44 at-bats and only three hits. Mark and Bryson look back at the trade and discuss how much of a failure it was. Was it the reason the Blue Jays didn't get an impact bat? Will he get picked up by another team?

The postseason is still a month and a half away, but the Blue Jays' starting staff is looking like a juggernaut -- if the team gets even gets there. Mark and Jacob discuss what Toronto's postseason rotation should look like, and whether Yusei Kikuchi or José Berríos should start game two.

The offence certainly isn't, but the old cliche might be true: Pitching wins championships. Could that be the case for the Blue Jays? Mark and Bryson discuss the offence-free Cleveland series but try to pick out some silver linings. Just how impressive has Whit Merrifield been in the leadoff spot? Was this series a failure for Davis Schneider? Also discussed: Jose Bautista's homecoming.Subscribe to Section 138 on YouTube for video podcasts.

Schneider Mania is here, and it's wonderful. Mark, Bryson and Jacob discuss all the ins and outs of Davis Schneider's major league debut, including where the Toronto Blue Jays go from here.

It's another series win for the Toronto Blue Jays, this time against a good team. Mark and special guest Tobias discuss the success of Trevor Richards in the rotation. Should he be stretched out?
