Leafs Fall in Joe Bowen’s Final Home Game + Jensen Lewis on Blue Jays Struggles

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning open Tuesday by recapping the Maple Leafs’ 6–5 loss to the Dallas Stars. They discuss the team’s recent slide, the decision to start Artur Akhtyamov, and how other results around the league may impact their draft outlook. They reflect on Joe Bowen’s final game, consider what the future may hold for Morgan Rielly and Auston Matthews, and project what's ahead for playoff-clinching teams like the Flyers and Kings. After the break, former MLB pitcher and VSiN By the Books co-host, Jensen Lewis (29:58) joins to discuss the Blue Jays’ slow start following last year’s World Series run. He shares insight on bouncing back from near-championship seasons, managing expectations early in the year, the importance of staying competitive, Max Scherzer’s durability, George Springer’s struggles, and Shane Bieber’s return to the rotation.
