The AL East race is heating up as the Blue Jays’ bullpen continues to falter, with costly blowups in the 6th, 8th, and 9th innings against the Twins, Brewers, and Reds. Toronto’s late-game struggles have cracked the door open for the Yankees and Red Sox, shifting the playoff picture in September. We also break down the Braves’ surprising claim of Ha-Seong Kim — a bold move for a team already out of the postseason race, but one that could reshape their future at shortstop. Get 20% off your first Slab Pack or card purchase by going to ArenaClub.com/FOUL and use code FOUL Upgrade your wardrobe and save on @trueclassic at trueclassic.com/FOUL! #trueclassicpodSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
