Bo Bichette's Blue Jays Exit with Shi Davidi

Ben Ennis and Sho Alli begin this hour with a rundown of Blue Jays news from the weekend. They weigh in on the disappointment around Kyle Tucker choosing another team, despite Toronto offering more term and money, and reflect on how serious the Jays’ pursuit really was. Ben and Sho then look back on Bo Bichette’s tenure in Toronto, his departure, whether he was ever fully embraced by the current front office, and what his loss means for the team’s outlook next season, including the possibility of lineup regression. The conversation shifts to the Maple Leafs and whether they should be buyers at the deadline following Rasmus Andersson’s move to Vegas. Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi (25:50) stops by to discuss the Jays’ post-Tucker direction, how Bichette will be remembered, the team’s ability to move forward without him, Toronto’s chances to land Cody Bellinger, and the potential for a lockout next offseason.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.
