Life in the Big Leagues w/ John Gibbons + James Mirtle

JD opens the show reviewing last night’s action between the Maple Leafs and Panthers, kicked off with arguably one of the worst renditions of "O Canada" of all time. Managing Editor at The Athletic James Mirtle joins the fray to discuss the Leafs' play over the last two weeks, how Toronto's top-six forwards might shake out come playoff time, if Auston Mathews has rediscovered his mojo, and what to make of Connor McDavid’s comments on international competition (12:34). Next up, JD brings us today's best bet of the day, presented by Betano! (47:32) Later on, former Blue Jays Manager John Gibbons chats about his new book “Tales of a Baseball Lifer”, before looking back on how his time in Toronto came to a close and how has the game changed from when he started managing to now (55:19). The guys close out the week with a Friday edition of 'What we Missed'! (1:36:32). 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.
