Summary

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning kick off Thursday morning by celebrating Dylan Cease's dominant performance against the Giants. They dive into the starter's near no-hitter and outstanding first season with the Blue Jays, while also discussing Toronto's recent offensive surge, highlighted by Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s fifth home run of the season and George Springer's move into the cleanup spot. The conversation then shifts to Justin Verlander being named an All-Star and the idea of adding a "legends" spot to the game. After the break, they preview the World Cup quarterfinals, before wrapping up the hour with a debate about whether the Blue Jays should pursue Francisco Lindor and what a potential trade could look like.
