JD begins the show discussing reports on the gap in contract talks between Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and the Toronto Blue Jays. The conversation continues with Ben Nicholson-Smith (7:45) who provides insight on how deferrals have factored into the negotiation, the path towards a deal between the two parties, whether the optics are shifting back into Guerrero Jr.'s favour, and just how real is the hype surrounding Alan Roden and Jake Bloss. Then, Justin Bourne, co-host of Real Kyper & Bourne joins JD (52:00) to examine how the Toronto Maple Leafs have fared in the absence of injured defenceman Chris Tanev, the continued secrecy around Auston Matthews' health, and the changing relationship dynamics between teams, their athletes and sports media. JD and the producers close out the show with What We Missed.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
