Who Takes Scherzer’s Spot? + Leafs’ Goaltending Quandary

On Hour 3 of The FAN Morning Show , Ben and Brent are joined by Jeff Blair to discuss the Blue Jays’ season-opening split against the Orioles, Max Scherzer’s injury situation, the club’s curious decision to part ways with Ryan Yarbrough, expectations for Bowden Francis, Yariel Rodriguez’s potential role moving forward, early returns on Will Wagner at third base, and the Yankees’ controversial use of “torpedo” bats. Later, Frank Seravalli (26:20) stops by to chat about Niko Mikkola’s antics against the Canadiens on Sunday, the top contenders for the Jack Adams Award, if the Maple Leafs would consider deploying a goaltending tandem during the post-season, and Alex Ovechkin inching closer to Wayne Gretzky’s all-time goals record.
