The FAN Morning Show goes into its final hour of the day with Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning talking about the Canadian men's national soccer team, as they’re holding a camp this week in Toronto. The team will name their roster Friday for the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal series against Suriname, and the morning duo are joined by special guest, the beloved head coach of the squad, Jesse Marsch. Jesse gives the boys some insight into camp, the young squad participating and some names to watch out for in these two upcoming games. Besides previewing the two-legged contest, the hosting pair also get Jesse’s take on what its been like since taking the job, the early success the team has had under him, what needs to get better and what his plan is to ensure that it will. The trio also take a few minutes to look ahead to the 2026 World Cup and what Jesse’s hopes are for the team in that competition, before sharing how he feels more Canadian already and how soccer supporters across the nation have embraced him. To end today’s show, B&B talk some baseball with former MLB GM and now MLB Network Radio analyst, Jim Duquette (26:25). They dive into the Juan Soto sweepstakes, which teams are legitimate pursuers of the superstar and if a bidding war between the Yankees and Mets is a real possibility. The trio also discuss the role Soto’s agent, Scott Boras, could have in how his free agency goes and if he learned anything from the down year he had for his clients last offseason. To close, Ben and Brent get some thoughts from Jim on the Blue Jays; if they can compete in the A.L. East next season and what they need to make that happen, as well as how fan expectations can put some Toronto execs on the hot seat this year.
