    Blue Jays Lose Fourth Straight as Trade Deadline Looms + Mitch Marner Drama | OTR

    How much worse can it get for the Toronto Blue Jays? Off the Roster dives into another night of chaos as the team’s season continues to spiral. Dan Riccio, Cabbie Richards, and Lindsay Dunn react to Kevin Gausman’s emotional outing, Jeff Hoffman getting cheered and booed off the mound, another brutal defensive mistake from Ernie Clement, and a head-scratching pinch-hit decision from John Schneider. With the trade deadline closing in, is Gausman on his way out? Is the dragon officially dead? And is there any real plan left in Toronto? Then, Davis Schneider joins the show to talk about tearing it up in Buffalo, the roller-coaster of being called up and sent down, his All-Star experience, and what he is seeing from a Blue Jays team searching for answers. Plus, the crew fires back at Mitch Marner’s agent after he claimed the Maple Leafs failed to protect his client and asks whether Toronto FC’s rebuild is already falling apart after 11 straight matches without a win. The Jays are lost, the Leafs drama never ends, and Toronto sports fans have plenty to yell about. Don’t miss a loaded edition of Off the Roster.
