| 3/24/26 | ![]() Blue Jays pitchers Shane Bieber, Dylan Cease, Trey Yesavage | Guests: Blue Jays pitchers Shane Bieber, Dylan Cease, Trey Yesavage Today, Deep Left Field checks out the Blue Jays' starting rotation - or, at least, people who will be pieces of the rotation at some point this season. Dylan Cease got the richest contract the Jays have ever given to a pitcher, and the 30-year-old right-hander will be second out of the gate when the season opens, starting Saturday afternoon against the Athletics at Rogers Centre. Cease joins us to talk about choosing Toronto, what he expects from his seven years here and fills us in on several of his interesting hobbies. We also hear from Shane Bieber and Trey Yesavage, two pitchers who joined the Jays late last season and made a huge impact on their run to the World Series. Both of them will start the season on the injured list. Bieber talks about picking up his player option to stay with the Jays and how his winter went after giving up the World-Series-winning home run in Game 7 while Yesavage takes us through his meteoric rise and record-setting post-season. All that, plus the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca! | — | ||||||
| 3/23/26 | ![]() Listen: Blue Jays manager John Schneider signs a two-year extension to stay in the Toronto | Guest: Blue Jays manager John Schneider Deep Left Field is going DAILY for the lead-up to Blue Jays' opening day on Friday, and we kick off the week with an in-depth conversation with John Schneider, who just signed a two-year extension that will keep him as Blue Jays manager through the 2028 season. Schneider, who is about to begin his fourth full season as Jays' skipper and his 25th as a member of the organization, joins us to talk about how dreams of Game 7 of the World Series interrupted his sleep during the winter, how he remembers the playoff run, how he has grown as a manager and much more. In the wide-ranging conversation, we touch on the post-season brilliance of Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Trey Yesavage, among others, the departure of Bo Bichette, how Schneider thinks the Jays can improve on what they did last year among many other things. The mailbag is always open at deepleftfield@thestar.ca - make sure to have your voice heard during this busy week of daily podcasts! | — | ||||||

| 3/12/26 | ![]() Meet some new Jays, plus Team Canada vs. Team U.S.A at the WBC | Guests: Blue Jays relievers Tyler Rogers and Chase Lee, shortstop prospect Arjun Nimmala This week in Deep Left Field, we dive into Canada's Pool A victory at the World Baseball Classic, the first time Team Canada has ever advanced beyond the first round of the WBC. Their reward is a quarter-final win-or-go-home match-up against a humiliated Team USA on Friday the 13th. Then we introduce you to a couple of new Blue Jays: Taylor Rogers, the submarining right-hander signed to a $37 million (US) contract in December, has been one of the best set-up men in the game for the past five years. Now his home ballpark has his name on all the trash cans. Chase Lee was acquired in a much more below-the-radar transaction, a December trade with the Detroit Tigers, but he's someone you'll want to get to know. A sidearm righty who didn't make his college baseball team as a freshman but had a 1.098 WHIP as a rookie in the big leagues and also has a degree in Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics. Also, meet Arjun Nimmala, one of the top-100 prospects in all of baseball and the Jays' first round pick in 2023! All that, plus the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca! | — | ||||||
| 3/5/26 | ![]() We go all Canadian from sunny Florida as the Jays continue spring training, plus we open the mailbag | Guests: Blue Jays first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Team Canada pitcher Michael Soroka, Canadian Baseball Hall of Famer Russell Martin This week, Deep Left Field comes to you from spring training once again and we present an all-Canadian episode! Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (Montreal, Que.) joins us for his first-ever Deep Left Field conversation without an interpreter. We talk to Vladdy about the Jays' magical playoff run last season and what he thinks of his team going into 2026 as his half-billion dollar (US) contract kicks in. With Team Canada having played a pair of games to prepare for the World Baseball Classic, which begins (for them) Saturday morning in Puerto Rico, we get the inside scoop on their attempt to finally break through and make it out of the first round of the WBC. Michael Soroka (Calgary, AB) will start that first game against Colombia. He and former Blue Jay Russell Martin (East York, Ont.), who will be coaching first base for Canada, fill us in on everything you need to know about the red and white!

| 3/2/26 | ![]() Jeff Hoffman reflects on Game 7, 'I had a chance to end it' | Guest: Blue Jays closer Jeff Hoffman In this special bonus episode of Deep Left Field, from Blue Jays' spring training in Dunedin, Florida, we look back at the ninth inning of Game 7 of the World Series with the man who was on the mound for the Jays and gave up the first-ever ninth-inning game-tying home run in World Series history. Jeff Hoffman said that day that he'd cost his teammates a World Series ring, and he reflects on that moment in an open, vulnerable and candid conversation - the first such interview he's done since last year's crushing loss. We open up the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca as well, for your comments and questions! | — | ||||||
| 2/26/26 | ![]() Max is back! Myles Straw talks Scherzer, then we speak to three *imenezes - Andres G., Leo J. and Eloy J.! | Guests: Blue Jays outfielder Myles Straw, shortstop Andres Gimenez, infielder Leo Jimenez, outfielder Eloy Jimenez Deep Left Field returns to Dunedin, Florida for Blue Jays spring training and this week we present a confluence of *imenezes, each of whom has been making news in the early days of camp, but first, a chat with Myles Straw about the Jays repatriation of Max Scherzer, who agreed to a one-year deal early Thursday morning. Andres Gimenez will be the Jays' starting shortstop this season. It's a move back to his original position, and one he played very well in the absence of Bo Bichette down the stretch and into the playoffs. Gimenez talks to us about shifting back to the other side of second base and what he needs to do to improve his offence. Leo Jimenez is out of options, and in a make-or-break position to break camp as the back-up infielder or be put through waivers after a lost 2025 because of illness and injury. We catch up with the youngster, who was solid for the Jays in 2024, to talk about how he's dealing with the pressure. And we play "meet the new guy" with Eloy Jimenez, a one-time top prospect who exploded onto the big-league scene with 47 home runs over his first 173 career games before running into the injury bug - hard - for five years. Here on a minor-league contract, he's off to a sensational start to the spring. All this plus the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca! | — | ||||||
| 2/19/26 | ![]() With spring training in full swing, we discuss how Kazuma Okamoto is looking, plus the mailbag | Guests: Former Blue Jays catcher and broadcaster Alan Ashby; Toronto Star baseball columnist Gregor Chisholm This week in Deep Left Field, we head down to Dunedin, Florida as the Star's Gregor Chisholm wraps up his week at Blue Jays spring training. We check in with Gregor about what he's seen from the Jays and get his thoughts on, among other things, how Kazuma Okamoto has been looking, why Anthony Santander didn't have his shoulder surgery much earlier and how Eric Lauer feels about being overlooked for a spot in the Jays' rotation once again. Also, we get into the wayback machine as the Jays get set for their 50th anniversary season and talk to Alan Ashby, who caught 124 games in the Blue Jays inaugural season, 1977. All that plus a dip into the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca! | — | ||||||

They will be inducted in a ceremony in St. Marys, Ont. on June 20. Devon White, the greatest centrefielder in Blue Jays' history. Stubby Clapp, perhaps the living embodiment of the Canadian national team player. Kate Psota, one of the first superstar women's players in modern history. Bill Stoneman, who threw the first of his two no-hitters for the Montreal Expos in the ninth game in franchise history. Paul Runge, a St. Catharines, Ont. native who spent a quarter-century as a major-league umpire, including working the 1993 World Series between the Blue Jays and Philadelphia Phillies.

| 1/29/26 | ![]() Baseball's CBA is expiring this year, is another lockout looming? Plus, the mailbag | Guests: Toronto Star baseball columnist Gregor Chisholm, former New York Post baseball columnist, now journalism professor and author Ken Davidoff This week in Deep Left Field, we talk labour. Baseball's Collective Bargaining Agreement expires this year and the stage is set for another off-season lockout, just like we saw five years ago. There's no question that the 2026 season will be played, but questions about 2027 loom large and we have convened a Deep Left Field panel to try to answer them. What do the owners want? What about the players? How united is each side? Will there be a work stoppage - the first since the 1994 strike - that delays the start of the 2027 season or worse? My Blue Jays beat partner Gregor Chisholm and longtime Yankees' columnist Ken Davidoff, author of the new book "101 Lessons From The Dugout" join me and we try to figure things out. All this, plus your thoughts and questions in the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca! | — | ||||||

We also go back to the Baseball Canada awards banquet to hear from Canadian baseball luminaries, including new Bichette teammate Jonah Tong, Denzel Clarke, who made MLB's catch of the year in Anaheim as a rookie last summer and Russell Martin, who discussed having two of his old teams facing off in the World Series (and having to pretend to be rooting for both). Plus, my take on the Cooperstown Class of 2026 and your thoughts in the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca! | — | ||||||
| 1/17/26 | ![]() Bo-nus Episode: Bichette a Met | Guest: Paul Sun-Hyung Lee of Kim's Convenience, The Mandalorian and more Bo Bichette agrees to a three-year contract with the New York Mets, ending the Bichette-Guerrero era with a thud. Reaction from Blue Jays' fandom has been all over the map, from devastation to "good riddance" and everywhere in between. We reach out to Canadian icon and huge Jays fan Paul Sun-Hyung Lee to discuss his feelings about Bichette moving on, what the Jays could have done differently and where they go from here. Plus, we open the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca for your thoughts on the move! | — | ||||||

He talks about the immediate aftermath of Game 7 of the World Series in the clubhouse and gives his thoughts on the Jays' magical season and his magical post-season that fell just short. As well, Ernie fills us in on the pitch he made to Bo Bichette to stay with the Jays during Bichette's wedding. Also, the 2025 Blue Jays were given a Special Recognition Award at last weekend's Baseball Canada awards banquet. Ross Atkins joined me on stage to accept the award and for an interview, which you can hear here. Plus, as always, we open the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca! | — | ||||||
