How Does the Rest of the Baseball World View the Blue Jays?

The FAN Pregame

Ailish Forfar and Justin Cuthbert kick things off with ESPN's Jesse Rogers (1:30) as MLB's playoff picture starts to take shape. They discuss how the Blue Jays are perceived throughout the rest of the baseball world, why the Yankees are a threat in a short playoff series, Manager of the Year frontrunners, and much more. Then, Ailish and Justin discuss Connor McDavid’s comments on 32 Thoughts and debate what is going through the superstar’s head as he heads into the final year of his contract. Later, Sportsnet’s Shawn McKenzie (25:57) joins the show to get his insight from today’s Leafs Training Camp opener. They discuss the mood from the team and what has changed compared to recent years, what to expect from the post-Mitch Marner era in Toronto, whether Easton Cowan makes the NHL roster, positive signs on the Anthony Stolarz extension front and much more.
