Is it time for Man vs Dan? - J is for Julio- we have entered July and this is prime Julio time. He has had a lot of bad luck this year so far, but that's about to turn! - K is for Killing Us Softly- while Chuck thinks Julio is about to get on fire, he doesn't have the same thoughts on Cal at this point.

We are starting off on a positive note after that Mariners win last night! It was a complete win by the team- total domination by George Kirby and Cole Young taking over offensively. Yes, there was still a questionable situation with the one bullpen situation… No, we aren't ready to fire Dan Wilson, but there needs to be some major improvement! :30- Mariners Morning After Cole Young blasted two home runs in the 6-2 win over the Angels and George Kirby went 8 full innings, only giving up the 2 runs early. :45- The World Cup shakeups have begun as Germany and the Netherlands were both eliminated yesterday.

Is there another move up their sleeve See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
RYON HEALY makes his weekly visit and we start with the positives… - Does George Kirby look locked in at this point? - What's the plan for pitching? 6-man? Piggyback?

Tim Brown covered baseball for more than thirty years and has written two New York Times bestsellers: The Phenomenon with Rick Ankiel and Imperfect with Jim Abbott. He also wrote The Tao of the Backup Catcher. In 2016, he was awarded first place in beat writing by the Associated Nolan Ryan was a hero to two of America's biggest institutions: Texas and baseball. He played longer, threw harder and amassed more pitching records—53—than anyone before or since. As he did, Ryan came to represent what was exceptional about a game when it was still America's pastime. Veteran baseball journalist and New York Times bestselling author Tim Brown provides the definitive biography of one of baseball's greatest players in NOLAN: The Singular Life of an American Original. Written with the cooperation of Ryan, his wife, Ruth, and their three children, Reid, Reese and Wendy, NOLAN is not just a tribute to one of the greatest pitchers ever to step on the mound, but an exploration of God, family, baseball, and America. Nolan Ryan grew up in the small town of Alvin, Texas, was graced with a fastball, and fell in love with a woman, then honored all three in his pursuit of hardball perfection. He was a hard man who did hard things because of how and where he was raised; by a father who worked two jobs in a Southeast Texas town that existed on the whims of the farming, cattle and oil industries. Told through the lens of life, men and baseball as they are forged in Texas, and set against the context of a game that has since given way to specialists, data, pitch limits and the marginalization of individual effort, NOLAN celebrates what was and redefines the legacy of the man known, simply, as “The Express.” Alongside Nolan's personal story, Brown offers a thoughtful, deeply researched history of baseball in the Lone Star State, and an unforgettable account of three glorious decades in the Major Leagues playing for the Texas Rangers, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Angels, and New York Mets. Nolan Ryan's story is about dominating the field, then growing old in the game, then just plain growing old. It's about the man who has become a symbol of the game at its best, the way it used to be. It's about deeds over words. About cattle matching the hat. About fastballs over all else. NOLAN makes the case that there has never been another like him. And there won't be again.
