Vlad's Extension + Canada Soccer's Future

The FAN Morning Show

The FAN Morning Show's final hour has Ben Ennis & Sam McKee back to baseball. The duo starts on the Jays, their future along with that of Vladimir Guerrero Jr. They discuss if Toronto has any choice but to re-sign their superstar especially with promises to compete in 2025 and where that leaves the organization with Bo Bichette. B&S bring on MLB Network’s Adnan Virk to weigh in on the topic and get his thoughts on what Jays’ GM Ross Atkins did at the deadline (9:50). The trio discuss the position the team is in after the deals, heading into the offseason and the faith fans should have in the general manager righting the ship. After that the morning pair turn their attention back to what was the story of the last 24 hours: the Canadian women’s soccer team who seemed to do the impossible and advanced in spite of the heavy sanctions placed on them. For this chat, Ben & Sam welcome on former Canadian national player, Craig Forrest (29:10). The now host on Footy Prime the podcast weighs in on what the women had to overcome and how incredible it has been watching them as well as the scandal as a whole and the fallout from leaked emails released yesterday in relation to the controversy. The trio discuss how it could have been handled better and what it means for Canada Soccer moving forward.
