The M's sweep the weekend! Thank goodness; we needed that and now we are 1 game below .500. :30- Mariners Morning After The Mariners won 3 close games in St Louis and they did it will some unlikely heroes throughout the weekend. Rob Refsnyder came through on Sunday with the game-winner and Emerson Hancock and the bullpen got things done on their end. :45-Oh yeah, the NFL Draft was this weekend and just as you'd suspect, John Schneider and the Seahawks turned 4 picks into 8. What did we think of the picks and how were the Seahawks graded? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bob and Dave are joined by Aaron Goldmsith to get his thoughts on where the Mariners go after getting swept by the Padres, they look back on Dan Wilson’s decision to pinch hit Connor Joe for Luke Raley in last night’s loss, and they discuss whether the four game sweep of the Astros was “fool's gold.” 

Brock and Salk discuss the decision to pinch hit Connor Joe yesterday as opposed to leaving Luke Raley in the game and what went into it. They then go through soem aspects of the Mariners that warrant patience and some that could need change. In Blue 88, topics include another way to look at Seahawks free agency, what Dante Fowler may have left in the tank and another way to evaluate the way the Seahawks go about identifying their type of player.

Stacy and Curtis hear how Seahawks GM John Schneider evaluates players as he prepares for the NFL Draft, they give you their thoughts on the start of the Mariners homestand and the drama surrounding Angie Mentink in Headline Rewrites, they break down Dan Wilson’s decision to pinch hit Connor Joe for Luke Raley in last night’s loss to the Padres, and they discuss whether we have a Luis Castillo problem on our hands. 

Get out yer Draftmas Catalogs, we're looking at Defensive Tackles this morning! :30- Mariners Morning After Yeah… the Mariners were swept in San Diego, so we have to talk about it and we have some questions… For instance, why was Connor Joe pinch hitting for one of our hottest hitters? Enough with the lefty-righty thing! :45- We are just bothered by Connor Joe pinch-hitting, Dan seems to be way too focused on stats and doesn't seem to manage with any gut feeling. Before the game yesterday, Andres Munoz said he's not pitching enough and it's not just him. How are we not making adjustments to our bullpen usage?

We had a VERY busy show on Friday! From the Draftmas catalog to house guests Mike Sando and Jonah Coleman, we covered all things NFL Draft. Plus Everett Fitzhugh helped us preview the Stanley Cup Playoffs and yeah, we talked Mariners too.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Mariners skid continues as they get swept by the Rangers. It's an ugly start to the 2026 season and not at all what we expected, but we aren't panicking. Now, if you think that Cal, Julio and Naylor went from all-star to dud over the offseason, then you can certainly panic, but we don't think that happened. :30- Mariners Morning After The Mariners have now lost 5 straight and the lack of offense and sloppy defense were the issue yet again. Bryan Woo pitched well, but the team couldn't help him out of a jam and the offense couldn't step up to overcome the deficit. :45- Mike MacDonald joined Softy and Hugh yesterday, so we revisit some of the conversation with the Seahawks head coach. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The MLB Trade Deadline has come and gone, so we went to the Fart Dungeon (sans Jake) and we give our thoughts on the Reds "buyers" moves. Ke'Bryan Hayes will definetly sure up 3rd but will he find his swing again? Can Zack Little continue his newfound success in a Reds uniform? Will Miguel Andújar be better than Connor Joe? Were these moves enough to take out the Padres who made all of the moves? All of these questions and more will be answered!

Fantasy Baseball Live – February 9, 2025 @ 3 PM ETSegment 1 – News and Notes1.The Mets re-upped with Pete Alonso on a two-year deal. The league has learned its lesson from hulking First Base sluggers like Alonso, and consequently, it's become more challenging for them to land the big contract.a.Your thoughts on the deal. Are there any changes at all in where you draft him2.Phew. Jack Flaherty managers give a sigh of relief when he re-upped with the Tigers for a two-year deal that is front-loaded with an opt-out. So, assuming he doesn't get hurt, he'll likely opt out. a.Will he be more of the 2024 version on the 2022-23 pitcher? 3.The Angels were at it again, signing Yoan Moncada to a one-year, $5 million contract. a.This is why I'm so critical of the Angels. This is a dumb deal to me. He hasn't been able to stay healthy, and if it weren't for a .406-fueled 2019 season, where he hit 25 home runs and batted.315, I'm not sure anybody would be thinking about him. Not to lead the witness, but what do you think? Am I all wet?4.Well the Tirso Ornelas came crashing down when the Padres signed the power-couple duo of Jason Heyward and Connor Joe. Oh well. Thoughts.Segment 2 – AL West1.Houston Astrosa.Isaac Paredes 2025 stat line: HR, RBI, and BAi.Will he be a downgrade from Alex Bregman, upgrade, or about the same?b.Chas McCormack (608.80 ADP), Jake Meyers (611.36), and Taylor Trammell (750.51) are the projected starting outfield. We've discussed previously about how weak it is. Do you have any interest?i.Over/Under Pedro Leon of 200 ABsc.Luis Garcia had TJS in 2023 and should be a full go this spring. In his last full season in 2022, he was pretty good. His ADP is 365. Is he a sneaky add in a draft?d.Spencer Arrighetti pitched to a 5.63 ERA in the first half and a 3.18 in the second. His batting average against went from .268 to .226. Any interest. His ADP is 216.9e.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)2.Los Angeles Angelsa.True or False. Mike Trout will win a World Series with the Angels before his career ends.i.Stat line for Trout: AB, HR, SB, BAb.Jo Adell's ADP is 290.89 and he's going as the 71st outfielder off the board. He hits the ball extremely hard and sprint speed in the 86th percentile. There is going to be pressure on his batting average as he doesn't make great contact. However, if he gets playing time, isn't there 20-20 potential here?i.Will he get the playing time?c.Yoan Moncada stat line for 2025: AB, HR, and BAd.Nolan Schanuel – Over/Under 15 home runse.Is Kikuchi more like the Astros version in 2025 or more like the “every other” season for the Angels in 2025?i.We will look at where he's going in drafts.f.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)3.Athleticsa.Tyler Soderstrom was a top prospect for several years, but has yet to establish himself in the Majors. Will he this year or will Kurtz beat him to the punch?i.Nick Kurtz 2025 stat line: AB, HR, BAb.Lawrence Butler went 22 and 18 in 451 PAs last year. Over/Under 50 combined SB and HR for 2025?c.Who would you rather roster: Luis Severino (290.0) or Jeffrey Springs (239.3)?d.Will Mason Miller be on the Athletics on August 1?e.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)4.Seattle Marinersa.In one of our Dynasty League startups, I considered drafting Victor Robles but couldn't pull the trigger. I studied the data, and while he stole 34 bases last season, he's not a burner with sprint speeds in the 63rd percentile. A .370 BABIP drove his .307 batting average, and given his poor exit velocity, I don't see that sticking or much power. Am I too low on Robles? I don't get the hype, as he's going as the 49th OF off the board. b.One of our Patreon members reminded me that we don't talk enough about Seattle's poor hit park factors (T-Mobile). It's last in the league. Should this give you pause at the draft table for guys like J-Rod, Raleigh, and Arozarena?c.Will Julio Rodriguez be drafted in the first round in 2026?d.Do you think the Mariners should trade one of their big starters for some offense? If so, who would you suggest?i.An ideal trading partner would be the Orioles.e.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)5.Texas Rangersa.Evan Carter state line for 2025: AB, HR, SB, and BAi. Will he be a full-time or platoon player by mid-season?b.Adolis Garcia had a down season in 2025. Although his speed has decreased, he still hits the ball extremely hard. Do you think he's more of a 30 to 35-home-run guy or a 25-home-run guy with pressure on his batting average?i.We will look at where he is being drafted and look at other players around himc.Do we see the break out of Wyatt Langford in 2025?i.He will be _______________ round pick in 2026.d.RosterResource lists Chris Martin as the closer in Texas. Are you buying that?e.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)

We also discuss Bryan Reynolds' rumored move to first base, the crowded catcher situation with Henry Davis, Joey Bart, and Endy Rodríguez, and the potential impact of recent roster decisions on the team's future. Plus, Anthony shares his take on the growing calls for Bob Nutting to sell the team.

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey ponders the Steelers' NFL Week 13 matchup with Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and the AFC North rival Bengals this week in Cincinnati. Can coach Mike Tomlin, DC Teryl Austin and players including safety Minkah Fitzpatrick fix pass defense issues that crept up in the Week 12 loss to Jameis Winston and the Cleveland Browns? And how will the Justin Fields package be deployed at QB, particularly in big moments late in the game? Will he be given the chance to throw again? Or will OC Arthur Smith save those opportunities for Russell Wilson? Later, Jason ponders a report about Russell Wilson's future in Pittsburgh and reacts to the Pirates' moves to non-tender players including Connor Joe and Bryan De La Cruz.

The Pittsburgh Pirates decided to non-tender Bryan De La Cruz, Connor Joe, & Hunter Stratton at last week's deadline. Were those three the correct move? Should there have been more? Also, let's take a look around the league at others who are now free agents and see if any make sense for the Pirates.

The crew is back in full force, and not a moment too soon! To kick us off this week, we're excited to share that we were featured on Spectrum News! Thank you to reporter Taylor Schaub for spotlighting us!  In position player updates, Tommy Pham is picked up by the Royals, Connor Joe and Lars Nootbaar are jamming, and Corbin Carroll has turned his season all the way around just in time to dunk on the Dodgers.  Pitchers are crushing it this week: our guy Kumar Rocker makes a huge splash in his Triple A debut, Kenta Maeda finally gets a W, Kikuchi / Woo / Manaea continue to deal, and Yu Darvish is back!! And Ohtani Talk finally gets the attention it deserves with the return of Naomi! His bobble head night has fans lined up 8 hours before Decoy's first pitch, he makes history yet again in his quest for 50/50, and we prepare for his grand return to Angel Stadium. 

In Thursday's edition of First 10, Jason Mackey talks about another incredibly frustrating Pirates loss, as the bullpen gives up another game while Yasmani Grandal and Connor Joe fail to come through in the clutch. Are there any answers to stop their free fall from contention? Plus a look at the Steelers' first preseason game Friday and lingering concerns over Sidney Crosby's contract.

The NS9 Postgame Show Powered By Primanti Bros. Neil & DiNardo discussing today's Pittsburgh Pirates game vs. the Houston Astros where Bailey Falter returned from the IL and picked back up where he left off pitching 5.1 innings and giving up 1 earned run. The offense came through tonight but from some unexpected people. Michael A. Taylor hit another moonshot while Connor Joe collected 3 hits.

Hour one with Joe Starkey. The Pirates proved a lot by taking two of three from Philadelphia. Martin Perez is expected to start on Wednesday. That's unacceptable to Joe. Connor Joe is batting .185 in July after a .169 average in June. The Pirates got what they paid for in Martin Perez and Marco Gonzales. Sonny Gray and Kyle Gibson have been very good for the Cardinals and it's annoying they're ahead of the Pirates in the standings.

Fred Zinkie and Jeff Erickson look at some of June's worst performers, like George Springer, Leody Taveras, Jeff McNeil and Shota Imanaga and issue their proclamation to Start, Bench or Cut. Plus, Heston Kjerstad is back, and Fernando Tatis is out until the All-Star break. --- 00:00 - Fred Pod 6-25 00:45 - Monday Notes: Fernando Tatis is out until the ASB…… 03:45 - Jackson Merrill Appreciation 06:00 - Yu Darvish (elbow) is still not ready to return….. 08:20 - Matt Waldron another good start / Ban The Win 10:45 - T.J. Friedl is back on the IL… 12:15 - Nick Lodolo to the IL 13:30 - Elly De La Cruz to the Steamboat! 16:00 - Bryan Woo is hurt again (hamstring)….. 17:10 - Clayton Kershaw has been shut down for a week….. 22:00 - Starling Marte is likely out for a month due to a knee injury….. 26:30 - Let's play Start, Bench or Cut with some of June's worst performers. Every hitter on this list has a sub-.500 OPS in June. Every pitcher has an ERA of at least 6.00. Some of the men on this list are obvious starts, but there could still be a conversation regarding their going-forward value. 27:20 - George Springer 29:00 - Shota Imanaga  34:30 - Leody Taveras 36:00 - Carlos Rodon 37:30 - Yusei Kikuchi 41:00 - Maikel Garcia 42:45 - Ryan Jeffers 47:20 - Andres Gimenez 50:00 - Dylan Cease 51:45 - Grab Bag Hitters: Jeff McNeil, Will Benson, Abraham Toro, Jonah Heim, Connor Joe, Shea Langeliers 54:20 - Grab Bag Pitchers: JP Sears, Chris Paddack, Bailey Falter, Zack Littell, Reese Olson, Pablo Lopez 1:00:00 - Why was FAAB so quiet on Heston Kjerstad on Sunday.

On his daily First 10 podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey answers reader questions. Among them: Will GM Ben Cherington make a significant move to improve the offense by the trade deadline? If names including the Toronto Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero Jr. or the New York Mets' Pete Alonso are unrealistic, what other options does he have to upgrade on Connor Joe and Rowdy Tellez? Could outfield be an area to watch, too, amid the struggles of Michael A. Taylor and Jack Suwinski? What happened with Jose Hernandez before he was sent to the Los Angeles Dodgers this week? Jason tackles those topics and gets into a little Steelers, too. Specifically, what will the run/pass balance be in Arthur Smith's offense as it looks to get bother Russell Wilson at QB and RBs Jaylen Warren and Najee Harris going?
