Ben kicks off he week with Keegan Matheson on the Jays ugly May and the different approaches that hitters take to the box like Bo and Vlad and what makes them so different. Next up Mike Futa recalls the time he was a high level executive with the Kings and was then interviewed for the Leafs for their GM position. He explains why his bosses weren’t thrilled about it and the types of things he had to answer. Then details of how hard it is to get someone that is currently working for another team. Later on, Tim Micallef on the history potentially made if the Celtics win tonight – then – the possibility of Vladdy Jr getting hot the way Bo did last year after Bichette was moved to 7th in the order. Finally, Joshua Kloke from The Athletic on the infighting with TFC, the controversy of having a players father as coach and what’s next for the high priced Italians and their performance. We end the show with Nick Nurse being named head coach of the Philadelphia 76ers.
