Episode 627: A series win for the Red Sox feels like a confusing process in 2026. Stories about the Sox have given the guys plenty of news to react to, and the latest batch continues to highlight just how dysfunctional the front office has become. Sam Kennedy's quotes about selling in early June brought the reality of the season into sharp focus, leaving the boys asking whether simply winning series is what fans should even want for the rest of the year. The team's recent form won't stop Jared, Steve, and Tyler from heading to AMB. They recap their latest Fenway Friday experience—including an interview that will be released soon! Trade rumors continue to swirl, highlighted by Aroldis Chapman calling out Yankees GM Brian Cashman. Willson Contreras has carried the Red Sox on his back all season, and the crew weighs the risk of trading him while he still has control left on his contract. The Tartan Army's takeover of Fenway during Sunday Night Baseball took center stage, sparking a plea to bring them back for the next series against the Blue Jays.

We started by comparing Jalen Brunson to Mark Messier as legendary local athletes, before taking calls from Knicks fans comparing Brunson to "Wemby the jerk." Jerry returns for an update featuring Jalen Brunson, followed by Clyde Frazier comparing this squad to the 1970 team because so many guys are thriving. Finally, the Yankees beat the Blue Jays behind a Ben Rice home run, and we wrap up the hour talking about Thursday's upcoming parade.
Jerry's got lots more from the Knicks & Jalen Brunson. Clyde Frazier said this team reminds him of the 1970 team since there are so many guys thriving. The Yankees beat the Blue Jays as Ben Rice homered.
Jerry has the sounds of Mike Breen as the Knicks win the championship. Jay Wright was on with Joe Benigno and talked about Jalen Brunson. We even heard from Leon Rose. James Dolan got booed at one of the watch parties until he apologized for it taking so long. We heard from Mike Brown after the win. Wemby said the loss was ‘painful'. The Carolina Hurricanes won the Stanley Cup. The Yankees beat the Blue Jays with a HR by Ben Rice.
The Knicks are NBA Champions and Gio feels like a kid again as we look at the moves that got them here and the importance of MVP Jalen Brunson. Opinions are shifting on Victor Wembanyama after Boomer called him the NBA's dirtiest player. Jerry's first update brings the sounds of Mike Breen's championship call, followed by Jay Wright talking Brunson, insights from Leon Rose, James Dolan getting booed at a watch party, Mike Brown's reactions, and a painful "see y'all never" from Wemby. Finally, the Hurricanes win the Stanley Cup, a Ben Rice home run lifts the Yankees over the Blue Jays, , and a caller suggests Wemby hung around "scumbag monks."

They take your calls and texts, and discuss some big picture items for the team; are injuries still a valid excuse for the lack of consistent run production? Has the lack of offence hurt an overworked bullpen? What holes does this team need filled, and are there too many of them to plug in 2026? How important is the coming road trip for this team's direction this season? Plus, they get into some smaller items from this game, including not walking Ben Rice in the ninth inning, the play of Jeff Hoffman, whether or not he balked, and John Schneider's subsequent ejection from the ballgame.

Guests: Blue Jays pitcher Kevin Gausman, Philadelphia Phillies reliever Tim Mayza This week in Deep Left Field, we look into the latest Blue Jays news from a 4-3 week, including the returns of Dylan Cease (good) and Max Scherzer (less good) from the injured list and speculate about how the Jays might handle the impending return of Alejandro Kirk, given that Brandon Valenzuela has emerged as one of the team's best hitters so far this season. Kevin Gausman, the only Jays' pitcher to have not yet missed a start this season, joins us to share his thoughts about the team being under .500 but very much in the playoff race as the first day of summer approaches. Gausman also talks about some of his more lightning-rod-type teammates, including Jeff Hoffman, George Springer and Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Tim Mayza was back in Toronto this week, but the one-time longest-tenured Blue Jay is now a Philadelphia Phillie. The left-hander reminisces about his Jays days and talks about the ups and downs of life as a reliever in the big leagues. All that, plus a deep dive into the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca!

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 7-4 loss vs. the Phillies to wrap up the series in Toronto. They take your calls and texts, and discuss the return of Max Scherzer - despite notching the milestone K, what does the future look like for Mad Max, both as a Blue Jay and overall? They get into the offence scuffling against Jesús Luzardo - why does it seem to struggle against pitchers with an inflated ERA? Plus, they look ahead to the conclusion of the homestand, which ends in a showdown with the Yankees.

The Blue Jays continue to tread water, bobbing up and down in the murky waters of a comprehensively underperforming American League. And though they seem to have a Max Scherzer problem on their hands, they'll soon have a catching problem on their hands, and they definitely have Vlad- and Springer-sized problems on their hands, overall, things could certainly be a whole lot worse.And this week we're talking about all of that, plus some love for Alejandro Kirk and Ernie Clement, the official removal of Jesús Sánchez from Bumwatch (TM), and more!
