Blue Jays Baseball is Back!: Previewing the Rays with CBS Sports R.J. Anderson, Service Time Talk & More!

Drew and Ol' Reliable react to the rare atmosphere, that will
eventually become customary, in a fan-less Nationals Park on
Opening Day (:30). The guys then welcome CBS Sports staff writer,
R.J. Anderson, to the podcast to discuss Toronto's series opener
against the Tampa Bay Rays (12:15). Before diving headlong into
Rays analysis, R.J. dishes out his outlook on the Blue Jays
(14:15), and Nate Pearson's service time along with Toronto's
extended control over the young pitcher (15:45). How has R.J.'s
view(s) of the Rays changed over the years (22:15) and what insight
can he bring about Tampa Bay's player development (24:15)? Before
disembarking from the show, R.J. rains praise on rookie Austin
Martin (28:30). Drew And-drew continue their discuss about service
time management (31:30), and then dive into the Jays' current home
ballpark options (36:00). The two share their observations from
Toronto's scrimmages against Boston (47:00), and roll the dice on
season predictions (1:02:15)!Follow Drew on Twitter:
