GREG LEWIS joins the show with his thoughts on Jonah Coleman, Demond Williams and the rest of the Dawgs in their week 1 win. Could Jonah Coleman be an early favorite for the Doak Walker Award? :30- ABCs of the Mariners - U is for Umpiring- Yes, Jose Ramirez was blocking the base and Cleveland's win on Friday was garbage, so we don't even feel bad about the Julio call going our way yesterday. - V is for Victory formation- Speier, Brash and Muni putting up zeroes was nice to see on Sunday. - W is for Waiver pick-ups, the M's grabbed Nick Anderson over the weekend and September call-ups start today.

It's official! We wake up this morning and the Mariners are NONE GAMES BACK! The Mariners got the 1-0 win in Baltimore last night, their 8th in a row and with a Houston loss, the M's sit atop the AL West for now. George Kirby went 7 innings in the shutout and it's safe to say, the ship has been righted. :30- Mariners Morning After The M's scored a run early and while we didn't expect that to be the only offense we saw, it was and it was just enough as the pitching took care of the rest. HIGHLIGHTS ATTACHED :45- NFL News & Notes - James Cook's hold in is over; Cook and the Bills agreed to terms on a new deal and he's back to business on the field - Mike Sando's QB tiers came out this week and the thing that stands out is Caleb Williams' placement… See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Klint Kubiak says the offense has been fully implemented, so what does that mean? It's time to take a page out od Mike Sando's book and put all 32 NFL teams into their appropriate tiers. Who is thinking Super Bowl or bust and who stinks and knows it? :30- ABCs of the Mariners - K is for: Kirby, he was fantastic in yesterday's 1-0 win over Baltimore, allowing only 3 hits and striking out 7. Seems like he's fixed… - L is for Legend; it's always fun to see Cal Ripkin Jr - M is for Munoz; he started not feeling well on the mound again last night :45- We close out this hump day with one last thing!

It's on the way, but in a lot of different ways- Robles rehab start begins today, Miller should be scheduled for one more start in Tacoma, but we aren't the only ones. Houston is getting healthier too. :45- I is for Ichiro and he had a whole weekend dedicated to him and it couldn't have been more… p-p-perfect. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Headlines and 12th Man news with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) The preseason is here! The Seahawks host the Raiders on Thursday in the first preseason game and it's the return of Pete Carroll. How should he be received? Tory Horton had people talking during the scrimmage on Saturday. It looks like Kenneth Walker is being bubble wrapped until the season starts. :30- The ABCs of the Mariners - S is for Superstar- yes, we expect more from our superstar, but he's just gotten his 4th straight 20-20 season and it seems like 2nd half Julio is here. - T is for traffic- relievers don't like to come into the game with traffic on the bases and we keep sending Brash in with traffic on the bases. - U is for up-his-butt, which is where Merrill Kelly's head was on Saturday :45- NFL News & Notes - James Cook is holding in and the Bills debut on Hard Knocks this week - Jerry Jones is still making headlines nationally with the Micah Parsons situation and no, he's not getting traded - Terry McLaurin isn't going anywhere either - Salvon Ahmed out for the year after See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The All-star game ended with a tie and they went to the best tiebreaker EVER- a Home Run Derby! Kyle Schwarber hit all three of his homeruns and won the MVP of the game for the National League despite going 0-2 with a walk in the game itself. Would we like to see the home run derby finish more often? Would we ever want it in regular-season games? Possibly… :30- It's a variation of Mariners Morning After as we look at last night's All-star game and the Mariners stars' performance. :45- Adam Silver spoke to the media yesterday following the owners meetings, but in reality, he didn't say much. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Headlines and a look at the action in Royal Portrush this week for the 2025 Open Championship. Rory's returning to his home course, Scottie's the favorite, but his putter isn't playing along and will weather be a factor in Northern Ireland? We discuss it all! There's still time to play the Major Golf Challenge- https://933kjr.iheart.com/content/2025-04-03-the-2025-majors-golf-challenge-us-open-edition/ :30- It's Trade Deadline Month Day! We have focused a lot on the offensive needs for the Mariners, but they also need a bullpen piece, so today we take a look at Twins relievers Griffin Jax and Jhoan Duran. Both are ready to make arbitration money, so it seems highly likely that the Twins would look to sell them. Duran added to your lineup would really be something! Brash, Duran and Muni… yes please! His salary won't get in the way and you'd have 2 more years of control. Jax doesn't have the speed of Duran, but he has 66 strikeouts in 41 innings and seems to be improving every month. Makes less money with the same amount of control. :45- It's like the MLB has answered all of Chuck's prayers… well, most of them. He just has a couple more requests and then he's done! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Headlines and Oh no! Now last night's loss sucks even more… We have proof that Munoz was, in fact, tipping pitches. How were no adjustments made? The Yankees couldn't have made it more obvious that they knew what Munoz was throwing and Cal knew it and talked to Munoz, but it continued. :30- ABCs of the Mariners - F is for Fielding- does Cal deserve some criticism for missing the tag at home? - G is for Goldsmith- you have to be able to mention a no-hitter during a broadcast, it's part of the job. :45- We've got 12 days til Seahawks Training Camp- has the offensive line improved? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Bucky's X's and O's- the big story from last night has become tipping pitches. Andres Munoz was tipping his pitches and the Yankees were very obviously picking up on it and yes, it's legal. So what's the difference between tipping pitches, sign-stealing and straight up cheating? We discuss. :30- The Mariners are in Detroit to close out the 1st half of the season before the all-star break. How are we feeling about this team being 3 games over .500 heading into the break, especially after last night? :45- We close out the show and the week with Booze News.
The Mariners blow a 5-0 lead in New York and get swept by the Yankees in feels like the most crushing loss of the season. We disagree that the loss was “embarrassing” or “pathetic,” it just straight up sucked. It seemed like we had everything going in our favor, 5 runs on the board, Woo with a no-hitter into the 8th inning and then all of the things that should have been dependable weren't. :30- Mariners Morning After The Yankees overcome a 5-run deficit to walk it off in the 10th and sweep the M's. Was Andres Munoz tipping his pitches? : 45- ICYMI: Scott Hunter joined us on Monday ahead of this weekend's draft. Does he feel pressure to nail this draft having the 3rd overall pick?

Puck and Jim open up talking about how they can't build anything on their own and they feel like less men not being able to do so. They also dive into grocery store coupons and Jim can't figure out how to make them work at Safeway and Puck doesn't care for Safeway. Along those lines, Jim is embarrassed how much he spent recently on a loaf of bread and these two idiots talk computers and ethernet. After the nonsense they get into the Mariners sweep of the Pirates and they chat about Julio's curious selection to the All-Star game. After Jim departs, Bill Krueger, host of the Old School Baseball Podcast, joins Puck to chat about the Mariners dominating pitching performance against the Pirates. Kirby vs. Paul Skenes lived up to the hype. They get into the All-Star selections of Bryan Woo, Andres Munoz and Bill doesn't agree with the selection of Julio Rodriguez. Bill still sees a major flaw in Julio's swing that he needs to fix. Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Time for Julio to get going.

SCOTT HUNTER (Mariners Director of Amateur Scouting) joins the show ahead of the MLB Draft with the M's picking at 3rd. - It's been a unique year, why? - Is the draft board set yet? - Is there anyone who stands out to the scout team? - Is it all about strengthening the middle infield and pitching? :30- The Mariners have 4 allstars in the original squad lineups for the first time in a long time! Cal Raleigh, Julio Rodriguez, Bryan Woo and Andres Munoz all deserved a spot and we are excited to see them represent Seattle! :45- We close out the show with one last thing!
We're back after a long weekend and ready to talk baseball! The Mariners swept the Pirates in 3 shutout games. The pitching staff showed out and thank goodness they did as the offense only managed 2 runs in 2 games. Turns out, if you don't give up any runs, you can win games. :30- Mariners Morning After. The Mariners got a 1-0 win on Sunday off a Randy Arozarena home run, but they had a chance to score more runs early on… if JP would have just chosen to slide or Randy would have told him to slide… :45- Coach Bucky is here and he had a great holiday weekend. - There are certain skills that Coach Bucky has, that very few people possess. - Cal Raleigh has 35 home runs, what is he capable of? - Was it an Elk dip kind of weekend?

Clearly they like pitching to him. :45- The Mariners seem to be on a decent track heading into the Allstar break, but the real issue is those damn Houston Astros. They've gone 29-10 over their last 39 games and swept the Dodgers over the weekend, so even with our sweep, we didn't gain any ground. Damn you Astros!

We've discovered a time-warp. The Mariners win in Minnesota, despite Luis Castillo blowing a 5-run lead in the 4th. Luckily, the bullpen stepped up and the M's were able to do some of the little things to get the winning run in the 9th and walk away with a 6-5 W. We saw Munoz in the 8th and Brash in the 9th and Dan Wilson didn't have us questioning his moves. It felt like a good fundamental win. :30- Mariners Morning After The Mariners squeaked out a 6-5 win and it was a Julio sac fly that won it for the M's, his second of the game and the season… and thus “Sac Watch” has begun. :45- Caitlin Clark was in town last night as the Storm fell to the Fever in front of a sellout home crowd.

Headlines and Seahawks One Series BRIAN NEMHAUSER (Hawkblogger) on Byron Murphy. Could Murphy be the key to this Seahawks' defense in his sophomore season? :30- ABCs of the Mariners - D is for Deep- we've thought the M's lineup had the potential to be deep, but it's amazing what getting one bat back can do. Luke Raley + Donovan Solano = success? Don't get us wrong, we still want to add someone before the deadline! - E is for Eduard- we've got to hand it to Bazardo, he's coming through this season. He's got an ERA under 3 and he's been put in some fairly high-leverage situations. - F is for frozen- have they frozen Muni in his current state and he's just in the back on ice? We've only seen him 4 times this month. :45- Caitlin Clark is in town tonight as the Fever face the Storm and her star is still shining bright, but how bright is it? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Seahawks One Series: HUGH MILLEN on Cooper Kupp. Cooper Kupp isn't the same player he was a few years ago, but he can still be a valuable asset to this Hawks offense, so how will he fit in and what can we expect from Kubiak's offense? :30- ABCs of the Mariners - Q is for quantify: a little clarification on that earlier Robinson Cano conversation - R is for relievers- Aroldis Chapman is ridiculous; 37 years old and still throwing 102 mph. Meanwhile, Munoz hasn't pitched in 7 days; is all the rest going to prove to be bad news. - S is for Solano- why Dan, why? :45- The Kevin Durant drama continues… where will he end up?

Does John think that's a good idea? Puck and John discuss a follow up story that John did on a very impressive 17 year old umpire from Oregon. It's a must listen. John finishes with that he doesn't think Blazer fans should close the door on Phil Knight buying the team.

Mike Garafolo, NFL Network stops by to discuss the release of the NFL schedule and will the Colts get reprimanded for making light of Tyreke's Hill arrest.

Is the offense about to regress? Bryce Miller is headed to the IL, but help is on the way with George Kirby and Logan Gilbert.
