It’s time once again for our annual Baseball Roundtable Podcast. In the past, we’ve focused our discussion totally on our home team: The Toronto Blue Jays and this year we’re once again joined by our go-to Jays superfans Mackenzie Longpré, and Melissa Wright. But for 2022 we decided to open things up a little […]
We may not be able to gather at the Skydome but Baseball Season is nevertheless well underway so we decided to reinstate our tradition of hosting an annual Blue Jays Roundtable Podcast to talk through all the hopes and fears and complaints and little joys of being a Toronto Blue Jays fan.

Since we won’t have Jerry Howarth around to say it anymore, allow me: Greetings, baseball fans and welcome to another season of Blue Jays baseball.

Monday, February 26, 2018 This year I decided to do something I’ve always wanted to do- I’m at Blue Jays Spring Training in Dunedin, Florida. Right now, I’m here at this very minute. I’m here on my own and things have already gone very wrong, but I’m here, I actually did it, and tomorrow I’ll […]
