The Marines got a much need win last night but they are still seven games back of the Astros in the AL West. Wyman and Bob debate if the Mariners still have a shot to make it to the postseason and what the starting pitchers need to do to get back to what we are used to. // Who needs to get hot on this Mariners offense to get this team back on track? Arozarena has started to heat up but the rest of the lineup has not been producing at the plate. // Take Two: Jeff Passan is reporting that James Wood of the Washington Nationals will be joining Cal Raleigh and Ronald Acuna Jr in the Home Run Derby. Mark Maske of The Washington Post reports that the NFL and the Players Association are not expected to engage in formal negotiations to expand to an 18-game regular season until "at least early 2026." // Wyman and Bob break down an early preview of the 49ers as a part of our NFC West preview. They are one of the least likely teams that would commit to a rebuild with all their core players entering or already in the prime of their careers. 2:45 - Cal Raleigh has made the AL All-Star game roster and will be the starting catcher and he spoke about the experiences he is having with all the national recognition and what he looks forward to about being a part of the All-Star team.

James Wood is solidifying himself as a star and future super star.  Case knows exactly what he's doing right at the dish and will share. It's more like a train wreck than a Subway Series and the Mets and Yanks limp into their big weekend matchup.  What's wrong with Anthony Volpe? Is Aaron Judge's season getting wasted? We say, calm down Yankees fans - they'll be just fine.  Meanwhile, Soto is hot as a pistol and the Mets may have righted the ship last night.  How big is this series for the up and down Metros? And love for Clayton Kershaw, the Toronto Blue Jays, and Casey's hammy progress!

Grant & Tobi make the case for which players could and should make the All-Star team; Earlier this week, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post released a detailed story that dug into the Nationals lacking a resource that many teams across the Major Leagues are using to help better their players. He joined Grant Paulsen & Danny Rouhier on 106.7 The Fan in DC to detail that story.

James Wood is a star, and this show loves James Wood. Where were you when he made his debut?

Welcome to another episode of "Is This A Great Game, Or What?" For those who are new here, Tim and Jeff Kurkjian, a father-son duo, chat with you about baseball three days a week. This week, we take time to remember Dave Parker, who passed away on June 28th and is set to be inducted into the Hall of Fame on July 27th. We get excited because it is finally July, the month that is second only to October for Tim. Cal Ripken on this date, had something huge happen in his career, so did both Bob Gibson and Walter Johnson (hey, did we ever tell you that...)When it comes to intentional walks, James Wood is doing it a lot this year but nobody did it better than Barry Bonds, we get some perspective on that. Two signatures that Tim got as a kid that have us baffled plus, and a special shoutout to a brand new podcast you definitely didn't know existed!Thanks for listening, spread the show to others by subscribing or following wherever you listen.

Most of what we believe we believe on faith, even those beliefs we hold to be based on scientific fact. This assertion lies at the heart of William James's essay ‘The Will to Believe', originally delivered as a lecture and intended not so much as a defence of religion as an attack on anti-religion. James's target was the ‘rugged and manly school of science' and the kind of atheism ‘that goes around thumping its chest offering its biceps to be felt'. In this episode Jonathan Rée and James Wood look at the intellectual environment William James was working in, and against, in the second half of the 19th century, and its parallels in the ‘new atheism' of today. They also discuss the extraordinary upbringing William (and his novelist brother Henry) received and the advice he offered to anyone contemplating suicide in his essay ‘Is life worth living?'

The Nats slugged five homers on Saturday night for a 7-3 win at Dodger Stadium. Mark (From L.A.) & Al marvel at James Wood as he crushed his 21st homer of the season; which is tied for 4th most in the NL. Wood's 1st inning majestic shot went an estimated 451 feet.(06:00) All of the top four Nationals hitters cleared the fences, with Nathaniel Lowe doing it twice.  The offense totaled ten hits and eight of them were for extra bases.(12:30) Keibert Ruiz went 3 for 3 with a pair of doubles. It is the first time since April 22nd that Ruiz had multiple doubles in the same game.(15:00) Washington pitchers combined for 11Ks in the victory. Jake Irvin had seven of them while not issuing any walks in his outing.(19:30) Jose A. Ferrer retired all five batters he faced and Mark points out how inconsistent he can be on the mound.(24:10) Kade Anderson, star LSU pitcher, threw a complete game shutout on Saturday night at the College World Series. Anderson is projected by some to go to the Nats with the top overall pick at next month's Draft. 

The Nats lost on Friday night 6-5 at Dodger Stadium to open their nine game West Coast Road Trip. Mark (From LA) & Al discuss MacKenzie's Gore subpar's outing where he gave up five earned runs in over five innings of work. Gore issued four walks and only recorded four strikeouts, keeping him behind Boston Garrett Crochet for the MLB lead in strikeouts.(09:45) The offense slugged a trio of homers but was only 1 for 8 w/ RISP. Riley Adams ended an 0 for 32 slump in emphatic fashion with a solo HR in the top of the 5th to cut the deficit to 4-2.(18:00) Luis Garcia Jr. had a clutch pinch-hit 2-run double to trim the Dodger lead to 6-4 in the top of the 7th.  Amed Rosario got the nod at 2B (and homered) and Garcia replaced Andres Chapparo at DH for the pinch- hit opportunity.(21:10) Paul DeJong had four hits on Friday night in his rehab assignment with AA-Harrisburg. It is looking like DeJong will serve as an utility infielder for Washington as Brady House is now occupying 3B.(23:40) A quick look at what we know about the contractual situations for both the Manager and GM. 

11:32 - Guest: Brandon Thorn, owner of the Trench Warfare newsletter, on the Commanders' offensive and defensive lines, including a recent conversation that Thorn had with Commanders offensive-line coach Bobby Johnson, what the team has in left tackle Laremy Tunsil, why Josh Conerly Jr. initially playing guard as opposed to tackle might make sense, why Thorn is bullish on Brandon Coleman at left guard, the strengths and concerns with the Commanders' revamped defensive line, perspective on interior defensive lineman Johnny Newton and the value of interior pass rush in the current NFL 36:37 - Nationals: analysis of a 4-3 11-inning win over the MLB-worst Colorado Rockies to end the Nats' 11-game losing streak in a game in which left fielder James Wood smashed two two-run homers, including a walk-off two-run homer  47:09 - Orioles: breakdown of a 4-1 win at the Tampa Bay Ray for the Orioles' 16th win in 24 games as left fielder Colton Cowser homered for a third consecutive game The Nace Law Group, Accident & Injury Lawyers - 202-902-7611 and make sure that you mention that Al Galdi sent you For advertising inquiries, email Sales@BlueWirePods.com Please note that time stamps may be slightly off depending on rotating national ads

From 06/20 Hour 1: The Sports Junkies recap the Nationals win over the Rockies yesterday.

The Nats finally snapped their long skid and it all came on the back of James Wood in the 4-3 win over Colorado in 11 innings. Al & Tim discuss the burgeoning superstar as the 22-year old went deep twice and knocked in all four runs.  Wood is up to 20 homers and he is tied for 5th in the NL.(14:30) Trevor Williams had a decent outing as he only allowed two runs in just over five innings of work. The bullpen stepped up by only giving up one Rockies run and Cole Henry came through with two clutch strikeouts in the top of the 6th. Jose A.
