Podcast appearances and mentions of ian furness

- It's happened! We flat out agree with the MollyWop guys and their conversation with Ian Furness about fan reactions to Julio in the allstar game. We never thought we'd see the day! It's Trade Deadline Month Day! Yesterday we talked about the possibility of the Braves trading Ronald Acuna Jr and while that seems unlikely, they may be willing to part with Marcell Ozuna. Is Ozuna the answer for the Mariners? Let's take a look. He's had some off-field issues and they're very serious, is that something the Mariners would want to deal with? On the other hand, the incident happened in 2021, has enough time passed? He's on the last year of his contract, so the Mariners would be on the hook for about $8 million and given the fact that he's a rental, you probably wouldn't have to give up that much for him… except, that this isn't a buyers' market. The demand for adding will be high this year with so many teams thinking they are still in the playoff hunt. He lacks versatility- he's only a DH and you aren't going to sit Cal on his days off, nor are you going to sit someone you bring in at the deadline. :30- Orel Hershiser brought up the idea that the Astros are playing so well, it's like they know what pitches are coming… could it be possible that the Astros would dare cheat again? :45- When this building starts shaking will we be ready? Some of us probably more than others… See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Kraken have already been making moves in the form of trades, but free agency starts tomorrow, can we expect the Kraken to be involved in that as well? :30- ABCs of the Mariners - N is for no-brainer- Cal in the HR Derby is a no-brainer! - O is for opportunity- we thought Harry Ford was going to get the opportunity to make his MLB debut, but it didn't happen. How difficult is that to overcome? - P is for Polanco, who didn't play on Saturday or Sunday. :45- NBA Free Agency begins today at 3pm and the list of free agents is unimpressive.
