This week in Deep Left Field, we talk to Shane Bieber after his first start of the season, coming almost three months after opening day. The former Cy Young award winner opens up about working his way back to full health and his disappointment in that first outing, with hopes for better in the second half.
We're also joined by Joey Loperfido, a favourite in the Jays' 2025 clubhouse - and a great contributor when given the opportunity - who was traded back to the Astros this spring for Jesus Sanchez. As it turns out, we gave Loperfido the DLF bump, unfortunately for the Blue Jays.
And we'll play "Meet The New Guy" with Luis Urias, who the Jays acquired from Arizona earlier in the week. The 29-year-old homered in his first game before making a huge base running blunder in his second.

- In 2022, the Doug Ford government expanded “strong mayor” powers to about half of Ontario’s municipal leaders with the aim to cut red tape and build housing faster. But a Toronto Star investigation reveals a different reality. With the help of a custom-built AI tool to analyze roughly 4,200 mayoral decisions, the investigation uncovered a sizable gap between political promises and actual results, showing that only about 2% of these decisions directly aimed at getting housing built. Instead, Mayors have used these powers to bypass council majorities and directly hire or fire municipal staff, among other things. It’s a shift that is reshaping democracy across Ontario.
