Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker recap the Blue Jays series opening loss to the Giants in San Francisco, if the team would have reconsidered 'running it back' after a World Series clinch and losing Bo Bichette in free agency, if the Jays should decide to move expiring contracts at the deadline, the struggling offence and swing decisions, and what went wrong in Kevin Gausman's start against his former team. Then, Blue Jays' reliever Louis Varland joins the guys (26:30) to look back at the move from Minnesota in 2025, how he's grown as a pitcher, if he ever thought he would be heading to the All-Star Game, if he's routine has changed since being placed in a 'closing role', learning from the World Series, and his goals heading into the season and before the end of the year.
