Jays Get Back to Winning; Now Comes Deadline Day

Ben and Brent start today's show with thoughts on the Blue Jays, who got back to winning last night in a tight game in Baltimore, before an off-day that happens to fall on the MLB Trade Deadline. The hosts first dive into the 9-8 win where Toronto overcame an early deficit and the bullpen delivered down the stretch. They discuss how good newest addition Seranthony Domínguez has been and if he’s putting pressure on Jeff Hoffman as the closer. B&B then turn their attention to some trades made around the majors, including the Phillies landing Jhoan Duran in a deal for a pair of top 100 prospects. In the back end of the hour, the guys share an update from an Edmonton executive regarding a Connor McDavid extension with the Oilers, before looking into the rumours of a LIV-like basketball league starting up.
