Baseball America's JJ Cooper joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker to evaluate the Blue Jays' returns from yesterday's trade deadline (2:15). He gets into prospect hit-rate and why the Jays' favouring of prospect 'proximity' can pay off in the long run. Recently traded outfielder Kevin Kiermaier (26:16) shares a player's POV of getting traded at the deadline, reflects on his time in Toronto and shares his thoughts on going from an underperforming Jays team to the World Series contending Dodgers. Then, Jeff and Kevin review some sound from GM Ross Atkins' post-deadline availability. Finally, the Athletic's Jayson Stark (52:05) shares some winners and losers from the deadline, whether the Jays should've sold more than just expiring contracts and the different dynamics at play in a potential Vladdy extension.
