About this episode
Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning kick off the second hour alongside Sportsnet's Shi Davidi! They break down the Toronto Blue Jays’ decision to bring back Max Scherzer, how he fits into the current rotation, and what it means for the Opening Day roster. They also discuss the team’s pitching outlook, including Eric Lauer’s situation, the readiness of Shane Bieber, the potential of Cody Ponce, and whether those uncertainties factored into Scherzer’s return. After the break, Michael Grange (26:15) joins to assess the Toronto Raptors’ recent performance. He dives into their struggles against top NBA teams, the impact and health of Jakob Poeltl, concerns surrounding Collin Murray-Boyles' thumb injury, and how the Raptors defended Victor Wembanyama.
