Blue Jays Hold Off Marlins + Habs on the Brink

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning kick off Thursday morning recapping the Blue Jays' afternoon win over the Marlins. They discussing the impact of Miami’s base-running mistakes, the pitching staff’s role in the turnaround, the team’s low-scoring wins, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s power numbers, and Louis Varland’s bullpen usage. They also touch on another Blue Jays hitter being hit by a pitch, the lack of retaliation, and Tyler Heineman’s future with Alejandro Kirk nearing a return. After the break, they shift to the Canadiens being dominated by Carolina in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Final. They debate whether the Hurricanes have erased doubts about their playoff reputation and whether Montreal’s postseason run has caught up to them. The show wraps with discussion around Victor Wembanyama avoiding punishment for skipping media availability and what that means for the league.
