Buyers or Sellers: Toronto Blue Jays vs Washington Nationals Game 108 Preview | Flight Deck

The Blue Jays are running out of time. Toronto opened the series in Washington with a 3-2 win to improve to 49-58, but with just days remaining before the August 3 trade deadline, every game could shape the front office's direction. On game preview 108 of Flight Deck, we break down Max Scherzer's emotional return to Nationals Park on his 42nd birthday, another lights-out performance from the Blue Jays bullpen, and whether Shane Bieber can continue rebuilding his value in today's start. We'll also dive into the growing trade deadline speculation after Jeff Passan reported Toronto has been active around the league. Is Jeff Hoffman becoming one of the hottest relief targets in baseball? Could Daulton Varsho be part of a blockbuster? And if the Blue Jays decide to sell, what kind of return should fans expect? We'll discuss whether Bieber has turned the corner after two strong outings, why his start against Cade Cavalli and the Nationals could be another opportunity to boost his trade value, and whether Toronto should capitalize while his stock is rising. Plus, Louis Varland improves to a perfect 22-for-22 in save opportunities, Jeff Passan's comments on a potential MLB lockout and how it could impact Toronto's deadline strategy. Can Toronto keep winning and force themselves back into the playoff conversation, or is the organization heading toward becoming sellers?
