## Resource

Brent Gunning and Daniele Franceschi begin the final hour of the week alongside Kevin Barker, former big leaguer and co-host of Blair and Barker. He breaks down the Blue Jays' upcoming series against the Mariners, both teams' offensive struggles, Toronto's playoff outlook, Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s performance, Kevin Gausman's recent form, and whether the Jays should be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline. Later, The Athletic's Joshua Kloke (26:20) joins live from Houston to recap Toronto's time as a host city for the World Cup, preview Canada's match against Morocco, discuss Alphonso Davies' impact and Jesse Marsch's lineup strategy, and look ahead to the future of Canadian soccer after the tournament.
