Leafs Leadership Under the Microscope + Rogers Signs & Shapiro Extends!

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning kick off the second hour of the week with a look back on Craig Berube's comments following his team's 6-3 loss to the Oilers on Saturday. They discuss the need for more from the leadership core right now and what that could look like for the group. They also compare and contrast Auston Matthews from three years ago to now and examine what has changed so drastically. Later, the guys break down Mark Shapiro's five-year extension with the Blue Jays, the significance of Tyler Rogers signing in Toronto, and what his role in the bullpen might look like. After the break, Sportsnet's Shi Davidi (25:55) explores Atkins' new deal and if the World Series run provided enough proof of concept to justify it. The conversation also touches on why the pitching market is moving faster than the position-player market, the possibility of turning to the trade market to address bullpen depth, and the latest on Kyle Tucker.
