Jays Sweep the Mariners & Cale Makar’s Historic Contract Extension

Ben Ennis and Daniele Franceschi kick off the week by breaking down the Blue Jays’ sweep of the Mariners. They discuss the team’s response after the Royals series, Max Scherzer’s dominant outing, Brett Bateman’s impact and growing fan-favourite status, and what to make of Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s struggles. They also look at George Springer’s resurgence, Alejandro Kirk’s importance to the lineup, and whether this offense can carry the Jays to the playoffs. After the break, they examine Cale Makar’s extension and whether the NHL’s era of stars taking discounts is over, along with the implications for Quinn Hughes, Auston Matthews, and future marquee free agents.
