Doug & DiNardo wrap up the NS9 trip down to Bradenton by discussing the 2 games that were played today. Bubba Chandler started for the Pirates split squad playin in Dunedin vs. the Blue Jays while Braxton Ashcraft started at LECOM facing the Phillies. Both pitchers put up a solid performance to build on this spring. The offense was pretty light but some players to highlight were Ryan O'Hearn, Jake Mangum, Jared Triolo, and Duce Gourson. The bullpen let down both teams, but it was mostly by pitchers who are much further away from making the big league roster. Isaac Mattson and Brandon Bidois both pitchers well in their time on the mound. We also interviewed Braxton Ashcraft as well as Joey Bart. We also provide Don Kelly's presser today before each game.

Nate & DiNardo are live from LECOM Park before today's split squad action at LECOM Park.

So far, Ashcraft has allowed 1 earned run in the 5 innings he has pitched. What are we looking for from him today as well as the upcoming season? What about the lineup that still features a majority of guys you assume to get everyday at bats? Although Konnor Griffin is in Dunedin, the trio of Reynolds, Lowe,and O'Hearn continue to plug the middle of the lineup. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

** THIS IS A SHORT, FREE PREVIEW OF THIS WEEK'S PATREON-EXCLUSIVE BONUS EPISODE. TO HEAR THE EPISODE IN FULL, VISIT US AT PATREON.COM/BJHH **Exactly a year ago we discussed some notable performances coming out of Dunedin in the early-ish days of camp, and each of us gave a rating from 1-10 based on the degree to which we thought what we were seeing at the time mattered, or would be reflective of what we were to see once the season started for real. In this week's bonus episode, we revisited those stories and ratings, both to see how well we gauged them at the time, and to try to assess just how much or little the information we're getting at this time of year is actually meaningful. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A Dunedin croquet club has been roughing it since 2018 after asbestos was found in their old clubrooms. The Tainui Croquet Club has no electricity, fresh water comes from a hose poked through a nearby fence, there's a portaloo and they share kai outside because the temporary building - an old shed - is too small to shelter them all. But they're hoping to turn cheese rolls and tea towel fundraisers into a new clubroom. Tess Brunton has more.

A man present at a deadly Dunedin student party in 2019 says the night is burned in his memory. Samson Aruwa helped to free at least 30 people from a stairwell pile-up and carried 19-year-old University of Otago student Sophia Crestani outside where CPR was performed - all while wearing a moon boot. Sadly, Sophia could not be revived. Samson was awarded a certificate of appreciation by Police Commissioner Richard Chambers in Dunedin this morning, who says his selfless actions prevented the tragic night from being so much worse. Tess Brunton has more.

A Dunedin high school band that will open for the Foo Fighters early next year says it's unlikely they'll play another gig organised by the city council. The band SEEK HELP! from Queen's High School is one of several young bands from the city's thriving music scene that played at New Year's Eve festivities in the CBD. Some councillors have objected to such a raucous punk band being hired in the first place, preferring dance classics to "get the crowd shaking their bits followed by the bag pipes and a new year countdown". Although bigger gigs are to come, the band says the experience has left them feeling undervalued and misrepresented. Adam Burns reports.

Guests: Blue Jays outfielder Myles Straw, shortstop Andres Gimenez, infielder Leo Jimenez, outfielder Eloy Jimenez Deep Left Field returns to Dunedin, Florida for Blue Jays spring training and this week we present a confluence of *imenezes, each of whom has been making news in the early days of camp, but first, a chat with Myles Straw about the Jays repatriation of Max Scherzer, who agreed to a one-year deal early Thursday morning. Andres Gimenez will be the Jays' starting shortstop this season. It's a move back to his original position, and one he played very well in the absence of Bo Bichette down the stretch and into the playoffs. Gimenez talks to us about shifting back to the other side of second base and what he needs to do to improve his offence. Leo Jimenez is out of options, and in a make-or-break position to break camp as the back-up infielder or be put through waivers after a lost 2025 because of illness and injury. We catch up with the youngster, who was solid for the Jays in 2024, to talk about how he's dealing with the pressure. And we play "meet the new guy" with Eloy Jimenez, a one-time top prospect who exploded onto the big-league scene with 47 home runs over his first 173 career games before running into the injury bug - hard - for five years. Here on a minor-league contract, he's off to a sensational start to the spring. All this plus the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca!

Could Max Scherzer actually rejoin the Jays? Are we ready to talk about Eloy Jiménez? Do we still like the Jésus Sánchez trade? How do we feel about the bullpen in light of Yimi García's injury? Will Ricky Tiedemann ever get built up as a starter after yet another setback?It's still early enough in the spring that there are some pretty fascinating questions still up in the air down in Dunedin, where the Jays continue to ready themselves for the beginning of the 2026 season a month from now.

In part two, Sharon Harvey, associate professor at AUT specialising in applied linguistics, says the recent move by some to make English an official language completely misses the point.

LIVE TO AIR & INTERVIEW: Prosa (Acoustic) by Cass Harrop on Radio One 91FM Dunedin

Bruce Mahalski from the Dunedin Museum of Natural Mystery tells Emile what it was like hosting a Britpop icon.

AJ reckons his 2015–2018 era in Auckland was a full-blown heater — TV show attempts, MC gigs, and running social campaigns (including a massive Snapchat growth run). But the wheels properly fall off with two all-time public blow-ups.First: he's working content for a Blue Sky / Spring Break party trip heading to Rarotonga. He's filming the hype on a delayed Jetstar charter, steps near the cockpit to grab a shot, and the captain reckons he's filming inside - final call is the captain's, so AJ gets escorted off by police and left watching the party flight take off without him. He books the next-day flight anyway… only to arrive and get quarantined in his room for two days so the crew can “lay low” in case it hits the news. That ends his Blue Sky run.Then: an international match at Seddon Park (Hamilton) where security mistakes AJ for another bloke in the same classic Black Caps top. He gets cut off, then cameras catch him taking a sip of a mate's beer - and he's escorted out. A snarky push turns into AJ saying “I'm walking” … and it escalates to handcuffs, right as the Northern Districts CEO clocks the whole thing. The result: AJ loses the upcoming MC gig for the grand final, and he takes it as the final straw.After that, he heads back to Dunedin, slows down, and the rest is history - meets his future wife on Tinder, kid, new job, calmer chapter.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.

We check in with Gregor about what he's seen from the Jays and get his thoughts on, among other things, how Kazuma Okamoto has been looking, why Anthony Santander didn't have his shoulder surgery much earlier and how Eric Lauer feels about being overlooked for a spot in the Jays' rotation once again.
