A Week Away From MLB Deadline with Ben Nicholson-Smith

Ben Nicholson-Smith joins Ailish Forfar and Jesse Rubinoff with the Blue Jays kicking off a series against the Washington Nationals and MLB's trade deadline just a week away (1:34). He discusses what he expects from Max Scherzer as he makes his return to the mound against his former team, Kevin Gausman voicing his desire to stay in Toronto, what type of return the team can expect in a potential Shane Bieber trade, players who might see a bigger role after the deadline, and how labour uncertainty in 2027 will impact deadline movement.
