JD discusses his feelings towards the MLB's Home Run Derby ahead of the All-Star Game tonight, as well as the possibility that the Canadian anthem was omitted as the festivities began, before turning his attention to the Blue Jays position in the American League heading into the break (00:00). Sportsnet's Ben Nicholson-Smith joins the show to chat about the Blue Jays' options in the starting pitcher trade market, an update on Max Scherzer's health, what constitutes success for this group as we look ahead to the unofficial second half of the MLB season, and whether or not it will force the front office to address multiple positions in the market (11:10). Later, JD takes a look at the NHL's new CBA and the changes we will see over the next few seasons (45:30).
