The Legend of Joey Bats w/ John McDonald + Wake and Rake!

Hour 3 of The FAN Morning Show kicks off with former Blue Jays infielder John McDonald stopping by to discuss his experience playing with Jose Bautista in Toronto, Bautista’s transformation into one of the best hitters in baseball, his emotional Father’s Day home run, and his status as a cult-like hero among Jays fans. Afterwards, Justin and Brent are joined by Jesse Rogers, MLB Insider for ESPN, to chat about the Chicago Cubs’ resurgence this season, Marcus Stroman’s tenure in Chicago, Cody Bellinger’s MVP-calibre campaign, the San Diego Padres’ confounding struggles in 2023, and the current state of the Blue Jays (27:21). 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 affiliate.
