Adam's Paternity Leave continues, so we're going to drop in the first of two brainmelters. Patreon payments are frozen for the time being. A few resourceful new Munchies have figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall. After that first payment, you won't be charged again until we're dropping new content (which we'll warn everyone is coming), so if you want more of this it can be had, along with access to the fully uncut episodes from 100 to present and Movie Club episodes.After reckoning with the horrific current events aspect of this week's installment, Adam and Josh get down to brass tacks with “Military Justice,” which depending on where you watch it is either Episode 7 or 8 from Season 15 of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. We discuss the essence of Galveston, the most heinous crime in the Boschiverse, the general self-preservation skills of ensigns, and Rollins straight-up laying a dude out, while marveling at a shockingly good episode of SVU complete with efficacious character development and some real tearjerking moments.

JD and Ben Ennis, co-host of The FAN Morning Show, debate if Daulton Varsho is the most important player on the Blue Jays and how to feel about Anthony Santander's slow start. Later (36:00), the duo banter about a couple sports trends on social media, before turning their attention to Keith Pelley addressing the gap between the Maple Leafs and their fans. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

TSN Baseball Insider on the Blue Jays middling around .500, the rarity of Jacob deGrom's outing against the Jays on Monday, whether Shohei Ohtani should pitch for the Dodgers, the Rockies historically bad start, and whether or not the Pirates should trade Paul Skenes.

Happy Memorial Day. The Blue Jays are hoovering around .500 and waiting to get hot. When will that happen? Ed Kasputis interviews Tom Dakers from bluebirdbanter.com about the Jays, Alberta succession and his love for government run health care. O Canada.

Sho Alli breaks down the Blue Jays' 3-1 loss vs. the Rays to drop the series in Florida at Steinbrenner Field. He takes your calls and texts, and gets into an offensive display from the offence, that saw the team log six hits and five walks...and only one run. Does it fall on the top four batters, or does everyone wear it in games like this? He discusses Anthony Santander starting to (slightly) turn it around, and gets into the outing from José Berríos, who gave the team a chance to win over six innings after allowing a first inning three-run bomb. Plus, with Yimi García being put on the IL, what does the circle of trust look like moving forward? The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Sho Alli and Nick Ashbourne break down the Blue Jays' 13-0 loss vs. the Rays to wrap up a series sweep in Florida. They take your calls and texts - did anything go right for the team today? They get into the start from Chris Bassitt, the outing from Mason Fluharty, and the bats continuing to lay low for a third straight game. Plus, they take a larger look at the team - are they just going to hover around a .500 record all season long, and if so, is that good enough to compete in a weaker AL East and American League overall? The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 3-1 loss vs. the Rays to open the three-game series in Florida. They take your calls and texts, and begin with a discussion on Anthony Santander and Jonatan Clase - if Santander was available to pinch hit at the end of the game, should he have come in for Clase in the seventh inning? Does that speak to the confidence level John Schneider has in Santander right now? Plus, they get into the outing for Eric Lauer, the performance from Braydon Fisher, and their first (regular season) glimpse at Steinbrenner Field. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

JD reacts to the departure of Brendan Shanahan from the Maple Leafs organization (00:00). Dan Shulman, Blue Jays play-by-play voice, joins JD to discuss how the Jays can stay afloat above a .500 win percentage, what feels sustainable so far, Daulton Varsho and Alejandro Kirk stepping up, the concern level about Jeff Hoffman, playing at the Tampa Bay Rays temporary stadium, and problem-solving the fifth rotation spot (9:00). JD touches on why the end of the Shanahan era of Leafs hockey was so frustrating (46:00). The views and opnions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.  

David Pagnotta, Editor in Chief of The Fourth Period, analyzes if the choice to let Brendan Shanahan walk was easy, what a new club president might mean, if there is awareness in the Leafs brass that the culture needs changes, and the Leafs' looming contract negotiations with Matthew Knies and John Tavares (00:00). Zach Harper, NBA writer at The Athletic, joins JD to discuss the Oklahoma City Thunder trending towards becoming the champions, the NBA's failure at selling small-market teams, and the exhausting discourse to avoid (24:30). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Later on, Marc Topkin (28:08) of the Tampa Bay Times checks in on the Rays ahead of their upcoming series against the Blue Jays.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner talk MLB betting for Friday and this weekend. The guys cover the entire card and give out best bets. The MLB Friday betting podcast hosted by Manaf Manji and Griffin Warner covered an extensive analysis of all 16 matchups. Manaf opened by highlighting the full Friday slate, including a doubleheader between the Orioles and Red Sox. Griffin immediately addressed frustrations with umpiring and pitch clock enforcement, using Yoán Moncada's controversial strikeout as an example. For Game 1 of the doubleheader, Povich (Orioles) and Baio (Red Sox) were both criticized, with both hosts favoring the over due to poor pitching. Povich's 5.28 ERA vs. Boston and Baio's recent seven-run outing made betting the over a logical play. In Cubs vs. Reds, Griffin noted Hunter Greene's return from injury as a risk, while Manaf praised Boyd's consistency and strikeouts, leaning toward the Cubs. Brewers vs. Pirates saw Freddie Peralta favored despite Pittsburgh's Paul Skenes' talent, due to a lack of run support. Both suggested under 7 as a good play. For Giants vs. Nationals, McKenzie Gore's strikeout success and the Giants' bullpen issues led to a lean toward the Nationals, especially in the first five innings. Blue Jays vs. Rays featured skepticism toward both bullpens. Despite Rasmussen's 3.00 ERA vs. Toronto, his 1-4 record and poor run support made the Jays an attractive underdog. Dodgers vs. Mets focused on Clayton Kershaw's weak return and Canning's strong 5-1 record with a 2.47 ERA. The Mets, 8-1 in Canning's starts, were backed heavily. In Guardians vs. Tigers, Jackson Jobe's 4-0 record and Detroit's 8-0 team mark in his starts made them the clear pick. Pablo Lopez vs. Royals saw under 7.5 suggested, with Lopez's home starts hitting the over but mainly due to weak opponents. In Braves vs. Padres, Chris Sale's 15-2 home mark with Atlanta was compelling, but concerns over the Padres' offensive slump and pitching made Griffin hesitant. The Rangers, with a 35-15-1 under record and the worst AL offense, were labeled an overvalued -180 favorite vs. the White Sox. Burke's wildness (13 walks in 3 starts) and Texas' high swing rate set up a potential upset. Mariners vs. Astros examined Emerson Hancock's inconsistency and the Astros' injury woes. Both leaned Mariners at plus money. Phillies vs. A's spotlighted Sacramento's hitter-friendly park. Despite Wheeler's average road form, Philadelphia's offense was favored to overwhelm. Yankees vs. Rockies centered on the 12.5 total at Coors, suggesting Yankees' team total overs. Marlins vs. Angels featured heavy criticism of Sandy Alcantara's 7.99 ERA. Kikuchi, despite inconsistencies, was backed due to the Angels' offensive momentum. Cardinals were recommended over Arizona due to Gallen's 5.14 ERA and recent struggles, while Mikolas had been reliable. For best bets, Griffin took the Angels at -143, fading Alcantara. Manaf backed the Mets over Kershaw, citing Canning's stellar form and New York's offensive edge. They concluded with a promo for Griffin's picks and encouraged listeners to take advantage of the B.A.T.20 discount at pregame.com. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Padres just had one of their worst weeks in a long time. Back-to-back sweeps, which included one of the ugliest performances you'll see. Gavin Sheets nearly saved them against the Jays. Manny hasn't looked like himself and Tatis looks defeated. Luis Arraez is confusing. The guys discuss the damage, wonder about shaking up the lineup and are getting worried about Yu Darvish.

After a sweep of the reeling Padres, Justin and Patrick return to discuss how the Jays were able to pull it off. They got great pitching from Bassitt, Gausman, and the bullpen over the 3 game set and tons of production from up and down the lineup. With the sweep, the Jays climb back above .500 and head out on a road trip to play the Rays and Rangers. Justin gives updates on injured players and Patrick asks tough questions about Jeff Hoffman.

JD opens with his thoughts on the Indiana Pacers and Dallas Stars completing massive comebacks in their respective Conference Final openers, the Blue Jays' dominant win over the Padres, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander winning the NBA MVP award, and the reports around Brendan Shanahan meeting with the New York Islanders (00:00). Former NHL forward and three-time Stanley Cup champion, Pat Maroon, joins the show to discuss playing with Connor McDavid in Edmonton, Stuart Skinner's rollercoaster performance in these playoffs, playing for Craig Berube in St. Louis, facing off against Toronto in the playoffs, and the challenge of winning the Stanley Cup (25:37). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Guests: Blue Jays centerfielder Daulton Varsho, third baseman Addison Barger, Buffalo Bisons manager Casey Candaele   This week, we talk to two of the players most consequential to the Jays' recent turnaround that has seen them win eight out of 12 games going into their May 22 series finale against the San Diego Padres.   Daulton Varsho leads the team with seven home runs despite only having been active since the end of April. He joins us to talk about his power prowess, his ongoing recovery from shoulder surgery and his advice to his teammates who had been struggling offensively when he arrived.    Addison Barger got a chance to play every day when Andres Gimenez got hurt and been one of the Jays' best hitters since then. He talks about his time on the shuttle back and forth from Buffalo, his power potential and his record-setting day in right field back in April.   Also, we get the word on the Jays' to minor-league affiliate and the players down there who are on the verge of helping the big club from Bisons skipper Casey Candaele.

They get right into Nathan Lukes delivering the game-winning RBI single in the 11th inning, John Schneider's decision to pull Bowden Francis when he did, the performance of the bullpen, and the worry level on Jeff Hoffman after another blown save.Note: The contract of Leafs Team President Brendan Shanahan was not renewed, and following an extra-inning ball game, today's edition of Jays Talk was abbreviated to make way for Real Kyper & Bourne.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 14-0 win over the Padres to win the series in Toronto!

2025 NBA Conference Finals Preview: What You NEED to Know

Adam's Paternity Leave continues, so we're busting out the second part of a hellish two-parter. Patreon payments are frozen for the time being. A few resourceful new Munchies have figured out a work-around where you can join as a free member and upgrade from there to a paid account which charges you for one month and unlocks the back catalog behind the respective tier of the paywall.

Instead, we were treated to a mind-melting melange of unbelievable plot lines, inconceivable character motivations, and abysmal acting. Was it good? Obviously not.

They take your calls and texts, and get to the offensive performance of the team's biggest bats in Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Anthony Santander. Should they be moved around the order?
