			Any guesses what the Jays add before the deadline?
 I thought a lefty bench bat was a given but with Tapia and Biggio both mashing I don't think they will anymore.
 
 I could see a cheap 5th starter depending on what they think of Kikuchi and Castillo for the rest of the season. Maybe Syndergaard for example.
 
 Really hoping for a high leverage reliever. Like a legit closer/setup man. Don't need middle relief, need high leverage.

			I think we’ll definitely see a good relief arm added, quite possibly as part of a package with a middle tier starter. 
 I think KC, WSH, or CHC

			Some super nerd stats here, but basically since May 27th - Raimel Tapia has been borderline elite. https://twitter.com/user/status/1551629701143207938

I don't know how many more times I can watch Kikuchi blow a game.

			I don't know the rules with baseball contracts and callups like I do with hockey. Is Kikuchi too "big time" for a AAA conditioning stint? Seems like that would be a good place for him to work his issues out without doing more damage to the big league team.

			We need several "Get up ball get outta here!" calls tonight. 
 So happy to see Buck back in the booth.

He started AAA game last week and pitched 5 innings.
