Brady is back for his weekly conversation with ESPN MLB Insider Buster Olney.Can the Mariners catch the Astros? How does Buster feel about Bryan Woo's Cy Young conversation? And how special is Julio Rodriguez? Furthermore, what can the team expect when Victor Robles comes back? And could the team look at extending Josh Naylor and/or Randy Arozarena?
The Mariners win game 1 against the White Sox and it was nice to see them beat up on a team that they should. Woo had us a little worried in the first inning, but quickly got back to dominant and went 7 innings and both of Seattle's new additions went yard in the 8-3 win. :30- Mariners Morning After Geno hit his first home run in his new Mariners' era and it was like he never left. Bryan Woo has given up some home runs lately, but luckily the damage was minimal last night and he got back to form quickly going a full 7 innings. :45- We are giving away a grill and in the process, we are VERY entertained!

We're officially past the All-Star Break, and the race for the pennant is officially ON.But first! At long last, Ichiro becomes the first ever Asian player in the Hall of Fame, so of course we have to talk about what that means to us, and how much MLB has changed since his tenure began.Then, a quick overview of the All-Star Game. The NL won this round, but Ohtani has lost Best Dressed...again. Onto the hot stove, Dane Dunning and Stuart Fairchild are the first Asians to move, but some big rumors have us refreshing our feeds until the deadline.Position player news starts with Kim Ha Seong back on the IL, but Bo Bichette and Steven Kwan make big offensive contributions. In pitching, Bryan Woo reaches a legendary record, Brennan Bernadino is has ZERO earned runs in over 11 IP in July, Shota Imanaga gets hung out to dry by his manager, and Kumar Rocker is finding his stride. Lastly, Ohtani shows us that vintage TWP action against the Twins, continues to rake with 6 homers since the break, and is moonlighting as a children's book author.Bryan Woo interview with International Examiner: https://iexaminer.org/seattle-mariners-starting-pitcher-bryan-woo-speaks-on-race-identity-and-being-a-role-model/

Robbie Ouzts, Seahawks FB sits down with Ian and is ready for the 'real football' to begin, as padded practices start today. He discusses how he sees his role as fullback in this offense, his experience at Alabama with Nick Saban, what we should know about his teammate Jalen Milroe and what he sees in Mile Macdonald. Bottom line, Ouzts can't wait to hit people. The Mariners split with the Angels this weekend, and it was a missed opportunity as the A's swept the Astros. Ian is ready for a balls and strikes challenge system. Ichiro was inducted into the Hall of Fame yesterday and we listen to the best part of his speech, which was just fantastic. Ichiro's commitment to the fans is above any. Kenny McIntosh went down with a significant knee injury over the weekend and it's feared to be season-ending. It's not good for the Seahawks but just a bummer for Kenny. Mollywhop Monday! Chris Crawford and Nathan Bishop join Ian to break down this weekend' series against the Angels. Chris isn't happy with Dan Wilson's management of Bryan Woo on Friday, and feels as though there are times when the players haven't been backed up by their manager. We saw something similar with Logan Gilbert yesterday. However, he admits it's an eye test. Nathan says it's hard to know what happens behind closed clubhouse doors, but Wilson should've gotten himself ejected for Woo. Plus, thoughts on Josh Naylor's Seattle debut. How important is it for the Mariners to add to the roster over the next few days? They go through players available, who would help the most and what the M's would have to give up to get them. The guys reflect on Ichiro Suzuki as he was inducted into the MLB HOF this weekend. Corbin Smith, Emerald City Spectrum sits down to tell us what he saw over the weekend and the bummer that is Kenny McIntosh's ACL tear. It does create an opportunity for Damien Martinez, though. He also tells us what he's seen in the first four days of training camp, as well as why he's so excited to see the guys in pads today. Ian's interview with Ernest Jones IV last week procured some great insight on this team, as well as his own journey this past year. We listen back to the highlights.

Lastly, Ohtani's proving his comeback to the mound with more scoreless innings and an NL-leading 32 homers.Detroit Free Press article: https://www.freep.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2025/07/13/tigers-arent-worried-about-deportation-but-told-to-carry-documents/84507852007/Bryan Woo calls his parents to share ASG selection: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5877AJvtDjk#:~:text=After%20learning%20he'd%20been%20selected%20to%20the,called%20his%20parents%20to%20share%20the%20news
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.

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.

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.

We discuss. :30- The Mariners are in Detroit to close out the 1st half of the season before the all-star break.

It's that time of the year again...the All-Star Game is near and things are starting to get weird! First, is BTS Suga a part-owner of the As???

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.

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 Jim departs, Bill Krueger, host of the Old School Baseball Podcast, joins Puck to chat about the Mariners dominating pitching performance against the Pirates.

We're back after a long weekend and ready to talk baseball! The Mariners swept the Pirates in 3 shutout games.
