Dissecting The Jays' Deadline
Manage episode 431658974 series 2559231
The final hour of The FAN Morning Show is almost entirely focused on the Blue Jays. Ben Ennis and Daniele Franceschi start by reporting on the recently announced ruling of the Canadian Women’s Soccer Team’s appeal, and the hosts react to the news. Are they surprised it was dismissed? Find out. After that, it's all about the Blue Jays as the pair connect with Sportsnet insiders Shi Davidi and Ben Nicholson-Smith in Baltimore. Shi leads off by joining Ben and Daniele to reflect on the deals made by Toronto, particularly the job done by GM Ross Atkins in unloading expiring contracts and other players he signed this past offseason (3:00). The trio examines what the Jays’ front office has learned from this past season's disappointments and discusses how they might address issues previously overlooked. Next, the morning duo transitions from Shi Davidi to Ben Nicholson-Smith (27:46). With the co-host of the At The Letters podcast, Ben and Daniele dissect the trade market and whether the Jays made out well. Could they have gotten more by shopping a pitcher like Chris Bassitt? You'll be interested in the answer. To close, the trio looks at the organizational future: how both Bo Bichette and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. fit into it, as well as the potential cost to extend and keep both. Do Jays fans want both back after this season?
