The Blue Jays head into the All Star break on a much brighter note than their western road trip. The week started off in turmoil with the firing of Charlie Montoyo but other than a brief blip on Thursday against Kansas City the Jays put up a strong week. On top of the Blue Jays already named to the All Star game, both Santiago Espinal and Jordan Romano were named as late additions to the rosters. Matt & Steve did a home run derby draft to see who has the best home run "team" - who will come out as the winner?

Home Run Derby Draft:

1 Kyle Schwarber (PHI) Matt
VS
8 Albert Pujols (STL) Steve

2 Pete Alonso (NYM) Matt
VS
7 Ronald Acuña Jr. (ATL) Steve

3 Kyle Seager (TEX) Matt
VS
6 Julio Rodriguez (SEA) Matt

4 Juan Soto (WAS) Steve
VS
5 Jose Ramirez (CLE) Steve
