    • Blue Jays Spring Training Shockers: Injuries, Berrios Apology, Sanchez Trade and Castellanos Release

      Blue Jays Spring Training Shockers: Injuries, Berrios Apology, Sanchez Trade and Castellanos Release
      Feb 16 2026
      The first day of spring training is traditionally a joyous time of renewal, but on Blue Jays Day 1, manager John Schneider opened with a trio of injury reports — OF Anthony Santander, RHP Shane Bieber and RHP Bowden Francis — plus a mutual mea culpa surrounding RHP Jose Berrios and his bail out during the World Series. Both sides now say the Berrios situation could have been handled better. Is all forgiven? Already, less than a week into camp, the Jays have made a trade to shore up the outfield for the loss of Santander. Griff and Mal discuss the role of OF Jesus Sanchez, acquired from the Astros for OF Joey Loperfido, returning to his original team. Is there a role for Berrios that would see him make 30+ starts for the Jays or, as the boys discuss, with the club's Top 10 depth of starters, is a trade more likely with three years left on his contract and an opt-out looming. With $20M remaining on his final season in Philly, what happened to prompt the release of volatile OF Nick Castellanos. And more.

    • Buck Martinez Retirement, World Baseball Classic and Blue Jays History | Exit Philosophy

      Buck Martinez Retirement, World Baseball Classic and Blue Jays History | Exit Philosophy
      Feb 7 2026

      Griff and Mal discuss the World Baseball Classic and if Team Canada is at last strong enough to escape the first round. It somehow seems that MLB should have been better prepared for the insurance issues that have mostly had an effect on Caribbean Nations. The Blue Jays will replace the Ted Rogers statue at the stadium with one honouring Joe Carter and his walk-off home run in the 1993 World Series. They discuss what other moments in Jays history worthy of a statue? The CDN Baseball Hall-of-Fame announced the list of six inductees for a June ceremony in St. Marys, including Stubby Clapp, Devon White and Bill Stoneman. Will the Tigers trade Tarik Skubal? How about top picks for '26 over/under win totals and much more?

    • Conversations with Griff: Michael Farber on the Montreal Expos Golden Era, Tim Raines' Redemption and Hockey Hall of Fame Career

      Conversations with Griff: Michael Farber on the Montreal Expos Golden Era, Tim Raines' Redemption and Hockey Hall of Fame Career
      Jan 31 2026

      Award-winning journalist and member of the Hockey Hall-of-Fame, Michael Farber, guests on Conversations with Griff. A New Jersey native who paid to see Bruce Springsteen perform for $2.50 at Rutgers University, Farber moved from a Yankees beat in Newark to Montreal to join the Expos beat for The Gazette in 1979. He still lives with his wife Danielle in Montreal and offers up work for TSN television and TSN 690 radio, as well as hockey insights for NBC. Michael and Griff discuss the memorable Expos years from 1979-94, focusing on the special bond those teams had with the city in which they played. Farber recalls the details of his exclusive access and coverage of the Tim Raines drug rehab winter, at age 23, between 1982-83, and the Hall-of-Fame redemption song that followed. Griff and Mike offer their opinions on Expos managers from Dick Williams to Felipe Alou, with personal reflections on all the special moments in those special years of Les Expos, Nos Amours.
