About this episode

The episode discusses Vancouver's bid for an MLB expansion team and its implications for the Toronto Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners.

Major League Baseball is set for expansion, with Vancouver leading the charge for a new team. Mayor Ken Sim has secured a waterfront spot for a ballpark, and the Toronto Blue Jays are supportive. However, this could pose a threat to the Blue Jays status and draw fans from the Seattle Mariners. The cost of expansion is a significant hurdle, but the potential for a fierce Canada rivalry and increased revenue makes it an attractive proposition for Vancouver.
