Blue Jays Free Agency Preview, Raptors Begin NBA Cup & Leafs in Vancouver

Ben Ennis and Daniele Franceschi kick off Friday morning by reflecting on their memories of Halloween as kids. Where does it rank in the hierarchy of holidays? Later, the guys dive into the free agent lists from teams around MLB, the players on the Blue Jays' list they would like to see return, and Toronto's biggest needs ahead of next season. They examine how the lineup can add more power, if they expect the front office to get their business done early, the appeal of Teruaki Sato, dream targets for the Jays, and Bo Bichette's decision to stay with the Mets. After the break, Ben and Daniele preview the start of the NBA Cup tonight. They debate if the in-season tournament is still necessary given the league's new anti-tanking initiatives, as well as if the Raptors can stay afloat without Kawhi Leonard for multiple weeks. The guys wrap up with thoughts on the Maple Leafs' visit to Vancouver and ask who should start in goal. Is it time to give Anthony Stolarz some runway?
