How important is this first series of the second half for the Mariners? Could this be a make break series in the divisional race between the Mariners and Astros? // Julio started to look like the player we expect him to be just before the All-Star break, should we expect him to hit the ground running in the second half and live up to expectations the remainder of the season? // Take Two: Pitching matchups for this series: Castillo v. Brandon Walter, Logan Evans and Lance McCullers and then a change for the Astros: Hunter Brown will now pitch on Sunday instead of Framber Valdez. Red Sox 10-game win streak comes to an end in Chicago, they fall to the Cubs 4-1…Mariners now just a game back for the 2nd wild card and have a 1.5 game lead over the Rays for the third spot // The Seahawks have now signed all of their draft picks after Nick Emmanwori and Elijah Arroyo signed their deals. Emmanwori is the first ever 35th overall pick to have their rookie contract be fully guaranteed. Do these contracts tell us anything about the confidence the Seahawks have that these two players will have a big impact on this season? // Wyman & Bob give us their expectations for the Mariners All-Star catcher Cal Raleigh and what we should see out of him in the second half of the season. Where will he end up in total homeruns?
Wyman & Bob continue their countdown with the 5 reasons why the Seahawks will make the playoffs. We have reached the end with reason #1. Wyman thinks the number one reason will be the fast start for the offense this season. Bob thinks the reason will be the defense being dominant. // Both Wyman & Bob had Devon Witherspoon in their 5 reasons why the Seahawks will make the playoffs, what will his impact be this season and what ways do you want to see him utilized? // Who is going to be the Key player for the Mariners in the second half of the season? MLB.com came out with an article picking one player from each team that will be a key player. They think that Julio Rodriguez will be our key player, do you agree? // WHYMAN: Joel Klatt believes that Sam Darnold is a bottom 1/3 QB in the NFL and says the same thing about Geno Smith. Johnny Manziel made it very clear that he really does not like the city of Cleveland.
Co-Host of MLB Network’s “Intentional Talk” Ryan Dempster joins Wyman & Bob to talk about this Mariners team going coming out of the All-Star break. He talks about second half pitching rotation depth and how the Mariners stack up. What does he think about Julio sitting out of the All-Star game? He also dives into what he loves about Cal Raleigh. // Do you think the Mariners can carry their momentum from their sweep of the Tigers into this series against the Astros? The Mariners have not had a good recent history with their opening series after the All-Star break, how important is this series against the Astros? // Sweeping the Dial: Ken Rosenthal thinks it could be challenging for the Mariners to go all-in at the deadline. Micah Parsons gave a detailed update on his contract talks on The Undertaker’s podcast. Jim Harbaugh randomly started talking about his former athletic accomplishments in his first press conference at training camp.
Paul Moyer joins Wyman & Bob to give us his take on the Mariners and his confidence in them going into the second half of the season. What does he want to see the Mariners do at the trade deadline? He also talks Seahawks training camp which starts next week along with the two Seahawks rookies who finally signed their rookie deals. // Mariners Pitcher Gabe Speier joins Wyman & Bob to talk about what he did over the All-Star break and how he prepared for the second half of the season.

Sam Darnold came in at #72. Urban Meyer is the next name to come and say that he does not see Nick Saban going back to college football but would try for the NFL. // Bump & Curtis go though the NFL Top 10 WR list and see how accurate it is.

Damian Lillard and the Trail Blazers are reuniting after two seasons spent apart in Milwaukee. TJ Watt and the Steelers agreed to a 3-year extension with an AAV of $41 million, making him the new highest paid defensive player. // With Nick Emmanwori and Elijah Arroyo finally signing their rookie contracts, what does this tell us about the Seahawks and how they are operating? The guys give us their takes on what this new style of wanting fully guaranteed money for rookie contracts means for this organization and the NFL. // During the All-Star break, Jerry Dipoto caught up some of the media to talk about the trade deadline. He feels like we have a fairly complete roster and would be looking for a move that would be meaningful. He is aware that there some rental players that would fit in this clubhouse but nothing is certain. How are we feeling about these statements?

The NBA has been having their league meeting in Las Vegas this week and the topic of expansion once again came up. Some owners are against expansion and commissioner Adam Silver did not say that they are moving forward with plans for expansion, but they are talking about it and doing analysis of what it would mean for the league economically. // Need to Know: The National League won the 2025 All-Star game after a dramatic comeback by the AL late in the game which prompted a Swing-Off. Now that the All-Star festivities are done, GM’s can now focus on the approaching trade deadline. NBA League meetings were happening this week and Adam Silver gave another vague comment on possible NBA expansion. // The Mariners ended the first half of the season on a high note by sweeping the Tigers and seeing the resurgence of Julio with Arozarena hitting his stride at the plate showing us his power. Was it the right decision for Julio to sit out the All-Star game to help him in the 2nd half of the season? Can the Mariners keep their momentum with their lineup starting to hit consistently in the back half of this season? // We go through your questions in one of our favorite segments: Answer The Question Jerk!
Cal Raleigh is doing things that have never been done before in baseball, winning the Homerun Derby as a catcher, having his father and brother participate as pitcher and catcher, and his homerun totals in the regular season. // Need to Know: The National League won the 2025 All-Star game after a dramatic comeback by the AL late in the game which prompted a Swing-Off. Now that the All-Star festivities are done, GM’s can now focus on the approaching trade deadline. NBA League meetings were happening this week and Adam Silver gave another vague comment on possible NBA expansion. // Let’s talk trade deadline! The trade market is not a big one this season and Arizona is looking like one of the prime selling teams with Eugenio Suarez and Josh Naylor seeming like good trade targets. Should the Mariners be looking for another leverage arm to help the back end of their bullpen? What position is the priority for the Mariners to go after? // Blue 88: What are Brock’s concerning numbers for Sam Darnold going into the 2025 season? With two 2nd round picks still not signed for the Seahawks ahead of training camp, who has the most leverage in this situation, the players or the team? What have we learned about Pete Carroll in his short time away from the game of football?
The Mariners have a superstar. Cal Raleigh has become the face of Seattle baseball. People love him for his home run hitting and his iconic nickname.
