The Seahawks sure did have a busy weekend, so let's talk preseason football and contract extensions. Saturday's preseason game #1 didn't go great and Mike MacDonald wasn't impressed post-game. Devon Witherspoon has a new contract, FINALLY! Terrion Arnold is also a Seahawk. :30- Mariners Morning After The Mariners lost a heart-breaker on Friday, but won a blow out on Saturday and a close one on Sunday as Andres Munoz got a chance at redemption. It was a series win, a much-needed series win and this team showed some fight. Can they keep it up? :45- Where do the Mariners stand now? Yes, they're 7 games under .500, but still well within reach of the AL West title and a wildcard spot. Can they maintain what we saw over the weekend?

Is it the end for the Mariners? We discussed that, Episode 2 of Hard Knocks and more on Wednesday's show! Here are the best moments!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It's time to talk Hard Knocks and we had some great moments in last night's episode! One of the big stories was the Terrion Arnold situation, so let's discuss. :30- We don't really want to have to recap last night's game again, but we must- it's the Baseball Brunch! Woo was good last night, Arozarena came through… no one else did and Cal spoke up after the game :45- Cal talked about an edge and the team needing to find one, which makes us think that no matter what Dan is saying in press conferences, he's not giving them that edge in the clubhouse. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Is it over? It feels like this Mariners team is done after last night's loss… another disappointing offensive performance and more questionable bullpen choices were the headlines from the Mariners 4-1 loss to the Yankees. The math still allows for this team to make a run and get into the playoffs, but where does the spark come from and why can't they find it? :30- Mariners Morning After Bryan Woo delivered a shutout performance in NY, a very welcome sight, but the offense couldn't string anything together and managed just 1 run on 3 hits. :45- Hard Knocks episode 2 aired last night and we are fascinated by what we are able to see from this team. Mike MacDonald, Leonard Williams and Derick Hall are the stars of this show so far. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Headlines and 12th Man News with GREGG BELL What did Gregg think of episode 2 of Hard Knocks and what did he take away from the way Derick Hall is portrayed and the inclusion of the Terrion Arnold situation? Nick Emmanwori passed his physical, so what's the latest on his return? :30- ABC”s of the Mariners - W is for Woo who was really good on the road last night after a rough first inning. - X is for Explanation: we need an explanation… why are we so bad at challenges? - Y is for Year-Ender: it feels like the season is over after last night. - Z is for Zunino: Cal's season is so bad, he wishes he was Mike Zunino. :45- It's time for Chuck to get Reckless at Breakfast and today's the day he calls Cal out.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Tuesday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler open Tuesday's show on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a quick recap of Essler's round at TPC Sawgrass, where he parred the famous island green 17th hole, before turning to a Monday betting recap in which the Brewers moneyline fell short again but an over in the Astros game cashed thanks to a three run 10th inning. From there the hosts work through a full Tuesday MLB card. At 3:26 they break down Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates visiting Eury Perez and the Miami Marlins, questioning whether Skenes at minus 112 is a gift or a trap given his rough road numbers, and landing on Miami in the first five innings with the under. At 7:14 the focus shifts to Tanner Bibee and the Cleveland Guardians against Drew Anderson and the Detroit Tigers, with rain in the forecast and both hosts wary of laying a price behind Anderson in what could turn into a bullpen day for Detroit. At 11:25 the hosts return to a familiar theme, fading Bryan Woo's brutal road splits as the Seattle Mariners visit Ryan Weathers and the New York Yankees, backing New York in the first five innings. At 14:53 they weigh Dylan Cease's heavy recent workload, including a one hit shutout of Boston, as the Red Sox visit Toronto, with Essler leaning the over and Manji preferring Toronto in the first five given his lack of trust in the Blue Jays offense. At 19:05 the Mets visit the Braves, with Nolan McLean and Martin Perez both trending toward an over, backed by New York's recent history of hammering Perez. At 22:49 the card closes with the Brewers visiting the Padres, where sharp money has pushed the line toward San Diego despite the majority of tickets sitting on Kyle Harrison, leading both hosts to the Padres and the under. The hosts also run through a batch of additional games, including a look at Hunter Brown starting in San Francisco and a Los Angeles Dodgers team total play against Kansas City's Michael Wacha, tying into the ripple effects of the Tarik Skubal trade. At 29:30 the show shifts into its recurring NFL win total series with a full breakdown of the San Francisco 49ers, who sit near nine and a half wins for the coming season. Manji lays out the offseason additions of Mike Evans and Christian Kirk, the return of Deebo Samuel, and last year's plus 66 point differential in a loaded NFC West, while Essler zeroes in on a difficult closing schedule that includes the league's first regular season game in Australia against a Los Angeles Rams team now featuring Myles Garrett after his blockbuster trade away from Cleveland. The two hosts land on opposite sides of the total, with Essler leaning under and Manji taking the over and projecting a ten win season if the roster stays healthy. The episode wraps with best bets from both hosts, Essler backing the Yankees moneyline against Seattle and Manji riding the Dodgers team total over against Kansas City, plus a lighthearted exchange about fantasy football plans for the year. Cash That Ticket airs daily on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, delivering sharp, matchup by matchup betting analysis across baseball, football, and beyond for listeners chasing an edge on every card.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out July with a full slate of MLB betting breakdowns and the next installment of their NFL win total tour on Cash That Ticket, part of the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed. The show opens with a look back at a winning stretch, including an Astros team total that cashed even though the offense attacked the bullpen rather than the starter as expected, and Essler reports a 3 and 1 day for clients despite his own best bet falling short. Manji shares updated season figures showing a July best bets record of 11 and 11 for negative 2.55 units, with the podcast sitting at roughly plus 13.1 units year to date, before venting about a three star best bet on the Phillies run line that fell apart when a six run lead evaporated in an eventual loss to the Marlins. From there the hosts dig into five matchups on the day's card. Eury Pérez and the Miami Marlins face Nolan McLean and the New York Mets, with the offense's struggles without an injured Juan Soto pushing both hosts toward a first five under look. Yohan Ramírez and a bullpen day for the Pittsburgh Pirates opposite Rhett Lowder and the Cincinnati Reds bring a strong lean toward the Pittsburgh team total over, powered by a shaky Cincinnati bullpen and a small home ballpark. Jake Irvin's return from a lengthy injured list stint for the Washington Nationals against Grant Holmes and the Atlanta Braves points both hosts toward the Washington team total over, backed by the Nationals' strong road numbers this season. JP Sears and the San Diego Padres draw a favorable matchup against Robbie Ray and the San Francisco Giants, with Ray's steep home and road split pushing the market and both hosts toward San Diego. A quick look at the Seattle Mariners and Los Angeles Dodgers highlights Bryan Woo's extreme home and road splits, while the Boston Red Sox and Athletics get a brief mention after a frustrating result the night before. The back half of the show pivots to the NFL, with the Los Angeles Chargers carrying a nine and a half win total into the 2026 season after an 11 and 6 finish and a wild card playoff berth under head coach Jim Harbaugh. Essler and Manji cover the hire of offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, the encouraging return to practice for tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt, the addition of first round pick Akheem Mesidor to the defense, and a demanding travel schedule that includes trips to Buffalo, Seattle, Kansas City, Baltimore twice, and a late season stretch through Tampa Bay and Miami. Essler leans toward the over while acknowledging the Chargers could finish closer to 9 and 8, and Manji takes the under, citing the travel load and the adjustment period ahead for quarterback Justin Herbert in a new offensive system, along with questions about receiver Ladd McConkey's role and the development of running back Omarion Hampton.
