Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Man, and I wish I would have scared you on
- 0:01Speaker 1: the way to the bathroom.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Whoa, you're gonna get it now.
- 0:08Speaker 3: You think we're even we're not.
- 0:10Speaker 4: I mean, you tried to make me think I was
- 0:12Speaker 4: locked in the bathroom.
- 0:14Speaker 2: All I did was hold the door. I was holding
- 0:16Speaker 2: the door for you. It's like a gentleman thing.
- 0:17Speaker 1: I did think of doing this, Yeah.
- 0:20Speaker 3: But I was holding the door for you.
- 0:22Speaker 1: I did think of doing the same thing.
- 0:23Speaker 4: And I was like, all he's going to do is
- 0:24Speaker 4: turn the knob and it's going to be like no
- 0:25Speaker 4: one was holding the other side of the door. I'm
- 0:27Speaker 4: not nearly as strung as as it will have no effect.
- 0:30Speaker 3: So yeah, that.
- 0:31Speaker 4: So I hid behind the corner and with scary fingers
- 0:35Speaker 4: and a scary face, thinking that if he turned to
- 0:37Speaker 4: look that way, I'd scare him. But then he didn't look,
- 0:40Speaker 4: So then I went ah, not even really loud. It
- 0:43Speaker 4: was at that volume anyway.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Which no one, by the way, looks that way. You're
- 0:47Speaker 2: coming out of the bathroom. There's nothing to the right.
- 0:49Speaker 2: There's a door that goes to.
- 0:50Speaker 3: The old building.
- 0:51Speaker 1: See me out of the corner of your I'm scared
- 0:53Speaker 1: of it.
- 0:54Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, so you would, you would have already been
- 0:57Speaker 2: on your toes. Not me just walking out, Oh willy nilly,
- 1:01Speaker 2: just feeling real good about myself. I just went to
- 1:03Speaker 2: the bathroom with no no mishaps, and she yells.
- 1:07Speaker 3: Right behind me.
- 1:09Speaker 2: I jumped, which if I had seen her and she
- 1:15Speaker 2: had her scary face with her claws, that would scared me.
- 1:20Speaker 2: I want yell was the only thing that got me,
- 1:22Speaker 2: and you got me.
- 1:23Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:24Speaker 1: Now I'm in trouble.
- 1:24Speaker 3: Happy Calloween Happy.
- 1:27Speaker 1: It's the spear of the season, that's right.
- 1:28Speaker 3: I agree, I agree?
- 1:30Speaker 5: All right, Well, the Mariners will play on Saturday. Today,
- 1:36Speaker 5: the Guardians and the Tigers will play game number three
- 1:39Speaker 5: of their wild card series.
- 1:41Speaker 3: We will know about three o'clock who are opponent's going
- 1:44Speaker 3: to be on Saturday, So third and decisive game today,
- 1:48Speaker 3: and it should be a lot of fun to watch,
- 1:50Speaker 3: there's no question about that.
- 1:52Speaker 2: Uh.
- 1:52Speaker 3: And then the Mariners will start their preparations. Maybe we
- 1:55Speaker 3: start getting the roster decisions at the end of the day,
- 1:59Speaker 3: at the latest tomorrow, maybe we'll find out the number
- 2:02Speaker 3: one starter for the series today. No later than tomorrow.
- 2:06Speaker 3: I would assume they have one more scrimmage that's going
- 2:09Speaker 3: on this evening at five o'clock and they are selling
- 2:12Speaker 3: tickets to that, so if people are interested. Looks like
- 2:14Speaker 3: those that went yesterday had a good time with it.
- 2:18Speaker 3: And so yes, Ashley, I know you said this is
- 2:20Speaker 3: going to be the longest week ever. Here we sit
- 2:22Speaker 3: with one hour to go on our Thursday show.
- 2:24Speaker 4: Yeah, it feels like it's been three weeks since the
- 2:27Speaker 4: Mariner's last place.
- 2:28Speaker 3: You looked at me, Yeah, dropped your head.
- 2:30Speaker 4: Yeah instead, I'm sorry, but no, it feels like a
- 2:36Speaker 4: very long time since the Mariners last played baseball, and
- 2:40Speaker 4: the anticipation continues to grow every day. I'm very excited,
- 2:44Speaker 4: I'm very eager. I'm somewhat nervous, all of the emotions.
- 2:48Speaker 3: All right, Well, I'm not going to We're not going
- 2:50Speaker 3: to run the nervous game. You know what we're gonna do.
- 2:52Speaker 3: We're gonna judge your confidence. I like it going into
- 2:55Speaker 3: the weekend series. So let's get it started. Let's talk
- 2:59Speaker 3: about offense. Some bucket scale from one to ten. What's
- 3:03Speaker 3: your confidence level that the offense will come through this postseason?
- 3:08Speaker 4: Mm?
- 3:12Speaker 2: An eight?
- 3:13Speaker 3: Pretty high? Yeah, I mean I don't if we've gone
- 3:17Speaker 3: into the postseason, we got again in the postseason last year.
- 3:19Speaker 3: But number would have been two. It wouldn't have been good.
- 3:22Speaker 2: Yeah, it would have been It would have been like
- 3:24Speaker 2: I literally am just hoping for one guy to hit a.
- 3:28Speaker 3: Bomb, hit a three run homer, yes, exactly.
- 3:33Speaker 2: And yet now it's not even close to that. And
- 3:36Speaker 2: that's part of the reason why I don't necessarily have
- 3:39Speaker 2: much concern about rust. And that doesn't mean they couldn't
- 3:43Speaker 2: go out there and scuffle. I just don't think it's
- 3:45Speaker 2: going to be because of rust. I think I think
- 3:47Speaker 2: this team, when you go basically one through nine, has
- 3:51Speaker 2: some grinders in there. They have some danger. I mean,
- 3:54Speaker 2: there's crazy you might have a guy hitting fifth with
- 3:58Speaker 2: fifty homers almost, I mean you could. I mean the
- 4:01Speaker 2: idea of what this team has. As far as the potential,
- 4:05Speaker 2: I mean, I don't. I don't.
- 4:07Speaker 3: There's not a lot of teams out there that I.
- 4:08Speaker 2: Just say, oh, I would for sure trade my team
- 4:11Speaker 2: for that team as far as the offense goes. And
- 4:13Speaker 2: yet we got to see him do it. They got
- 4:15Speaker 2: to go out and do it. It's but hopefully they
- 4:17Speaker 2: don't put a whole bunch of undue, unnecessary pressure on
- 4:20Speaker 2: themselves individually and just go out there and try to
- 4:22Speaker 2: grind out AB's.
- 4:24Speaker 3: I got an eight too, That's what I wrote all
- 4:26Speaker 3: mine down beforehand. I got an eight as well. I
- 4:28Speaker 3: think the depth and the balance of this offense is outstanding.
- 4:33Speaker 3: It's not just outstanding by Mariners standards in the last
- 4:37Speaker 3: few years and the Depoto era. Offensively, I think it's
- 4:40Speaker 3: just outstanding. I think it measures up against just about
- 4:43Speaker 3: anybody's in the league. You know, I'm a little worried
- 4:47Speaker 3: about versus lefties, but believe it or not, the splits
- 4:50Speaker 3: aren't as outrageous as you what what you might think.
- 4:53Speaker 3: I think we can play small ball if we need
- 4:56Speaker 3: to with this group. I think that we can steal bases.
- 4:58Speaker 3: I think we can play a home run war with
- 5:01Speaker 3: anybody in the American League. Maybe not the Yankees at
- 5:04Speaker 3: Yankee Stadium because they're kind of built for that stadium.
- 5:07Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't think we're going to get eliminated
- 5:11Speaker 3: from the playoffs because of our offense.
- 5:14Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would say if we were judging it
- 5:17Speaker 4: just on potential, I'd give it a ten. But four
- 5:20Speaker 4: decades of being a Mariners fan does make me, you know,
- 5:23Speaker 4: I have I keep my reservations just a little bit.
- 5:25Speaker 4: So then that gives me like a six and a
- 5:28Speaker 4: half or seven because of my nerves, so averaging out
- 5:31Speaker 4: to yeah, about an eight, just that I think they
- 5:33Speaker 4: can get the job done, but I step into all
- 5:36Speaker 4: of it with a little bit of hesitation, just because
- 5:38Speaker 4: of so many years of well even.
- 5:40Speaker 3: This year, I mean even then recently than the month
- 5:43Speaker 3: of September. They went along stretching.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Like, what is happening? Very good point, why are we hitting?
- 5:48Speaker 3: What is happening here? So that thing is the thing
- 5:51Speaker 3: that keeps you from putting it to a ten. Yeah,
- 5:53Speaker 3: maybe a go nine, but you can't go because this
- 5:56Speaker 3: team can move.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Heird, they're like sibil, they got like six different person
- 5:59Speaker 2: To be honest, I don't know for sure. If you
- 6:01Speaker 2: could put an offense out there, I mean that I
- 6:04Speaker 2: would just think is ten unless it's like the All
- 6:06Speaker 2: Star team, right.
- 6:07Speaker 3: Maybe the Dodgers.
- 6:08Speaker 2: I think then I don't feel like it's a ten.
- 6:10Speaker 2: I mean I feel like it's yeah, show Hey does
- 6:12Speaker 2: what show Hay does, and Mooki does what he does,
- 6:14Speaker 2: and Freddy does what he does. You're like, and ta
- 6:16Speaker 2: Oscar's chipping in, then you're like, yeah, we're gonna score
- 6:19Speaker 2: four or five plus runs a game, but you can't
- 6:21Speaker 2: guarantee it's gonna happen. Matter of fact, they run into
- 6:24Speaker 2: our pitching staff off our pitching staff's on, they ain't
- 6:27Speaker 2: gonna be a ten.
- 6:27Speaker 3: All right, Well, let's talk about our pitching staff starting
- 6:30Speaker 3: pitching scale from one to ten. Actually, how confident are
- 6:32Speaker 3: you that they're gonna come through?
- 6:34Speaker 4: Oh?
- 6:34Speaker 1: Man, no, this is again.
- 6:36Speaker 4: I'm gonna go starting pitching only I've got to go
- 6:40Speaker 4: with us seven seven, yeah, which I know seems a
- 6:43Speaker 4: little low, and I really okay, seems very low. But
- 6:47Speaker 4: it's just again, it's those reservations that, yeah, that's fair.
- 6:53Speaker 4: It's those reservations that I can't get yeah, that I
- 6:57Speaker 4: can't get past.
- 6:58Speaker 1: It's the it's that that's that.
- 7:00Speaker 4: Feeling of what's going to go wrong that you know,
- 7:04Speaker 4: I think is in the back of a lot of
- 7:05Speaker 4: Mariners fans minds. Now, I'm not letting it overtake that
- 7:08Speaker 4: my confidence. You know, I'm giving them a seven. It's
- 7:11Speaker 4: on the higher end of five of the tend to
- 7:13Speaker 4: or zero to ten scale. But I just worry about
- 7:18Speaker 4: those little blow ups that we have seen from each
- 7:21Speaker 4: one of these guys.
- 7:23Speaker 1: This season. It's not just one person that's had those
- 7:26Speaker 1: little blow ups.
- 7:27Speaker 3: I was gonna go nine, but because of the Wu,
- 7:30Speaker 3: I'm gonna knock it down to half a point, So
- 7:32Speaker 3: I'm gonna go eight and a half. I am. I'm
- 7:34Speaker 3: pretty I'm very confident with this group. And I know
- 7:37Speaker 3: they've had some injuries this year, and I know they
- 7:40Speaker 3: have had their scuffles, but they are all kind of
- 7:43Speaker 3: on a roll right now. I mean, Bucky's repeatedly pointed
- 7:46Speaker 3: out the Castillo success in his last four starts, and
- 7:51Speaker 3: even though they've he's been better in his last four
- 7:53Speaker 3: starts than everybody else in the rotation. Logan Gilbert's got
- 7:57Speaker 3: like a two to two e ER this month, and
- 7:59Speaker 3: Brian Wu He's got a two point four ERA over
- 8:01Speaker 3: his last seven starts, and George seems to have fixed
- 8:04Speaker 3: things right now. And I think they all have the
- 8:08Speaker 3: right kind of motor for this occasion. Like who's a
- 8:13Speaker 3: tenacious competitor? Logan as goofy as he is is a
- 8:16Speaker 3: tenacious competitor. Castile might be just that personality that just
- 8:20Speaker 3: like I'm I'm not gonna get worked up. Maybe you're
- 8:22Speaker 3: gonna get worked up, but I'm not gonna get worked
- 8:24Speaker 3: up that cool customer. I mean, it's a different personality.
- 8:27Speaker 3: But and then George, h yeah, sometimes he can't gets
- 8:31Speaker 3: his own he gets in his own way sometimes, but
- 8:34Speaker 3: I have a feeling he's going to rise to the occasion.
- 8:36Speaker 3: I feel really confident about this group and I think
- 8:40Speaker 3: that the only reason not a ten is because I
- 8:44Speaker 3: don't think we have a Schooble type that I feel
- 8:47Speaker 3: like if we're faced to Trek Scooble, we're going to
- 8:49Speaker 3: get too great efforts throwing us. I don't know if
- 8:52Speaker 3: we have that guy, but in terms of our depth,
- 8:55Speaker 3: every single game that we pitch, we're gonna have a
- 8:58Speaker 3: very good starter to great starter on the mound. Nobody
- 9:02Speaker 3: else can say that. Yeah.
- 9:03Speaker 2: I mean you just gotta go out there and think, Okay,
- 9:06Speaker 2: when when we put this guy's name down and he
- 9:09Speaker 2: goes out to the rubber, how good do you feel
- 9:11Speaker 2: about his chances of giving you a chance to win?
- 9:15Speaker 2: And there's I don't think there's another organization that feels
- 9:18Speaker 2: as good, regardless of what game, regardless where you're playing,
- 9:22Speaker 2: as the as the Mariners, you I'll go nine, But
- 9:25Speaker 2: that's because I'd be hard pressed for me to give
- 9:27Speaker 2: a ten to anything. I just don't A ten is
- 9:30Speaker 2: a perfect score, right, I don't. I just have a
- 9:32Speaker 2: hard time thinking. I mean, because there's these guys aren't perfect,
- 9:35Speaker 2: They're still human, and the idea that you're going to
- 9:37Speaker 2: go out there and execute you know, your pitches. No,
- 9:41Speaker 2: but if you make a mistake to one guy, you
- 9:43Speaker 2: probably get away with that. You make a mistake to
- 9:45Speaker 2: somebody else and maybe won't. Next thing you know, you're
- 9:48Speaker 2: walking out of the game giving up three and five innings,
- 9:50Speaker 2: and you're you're on the comeback trail. You're you're you're
- 9:52Speaker 2: playing a different type of ballgame. So but I feel good.
- 9:55Speaker 2: I feel good about it. I feel good about whether
- 9:57Speaker 2: it's Logan. I wouldn't be surprised if it is Logan first,
- 10:00Speaker 2: Castillo second, and then Wu coming back for your first
- 10:02Speaker 2: game on the road. I mean, I feel good about
- 10:06Speaker 2: where we're at.
- 10:06Speaker 3: I want you to think about something. The Boston Red
- 10:08Speaker 3: Sox and New York Yankees are playing a game with
- 10:10Speaker 3: their seasons on the line night and they are starting
- 10:14Speaker 3: Connolly early, who uh huh? And Cam Schlittler And the
- 10:20Speaker 3: only reason you know him is because we faced him
- 10:22Speaker 3: and Angie was scared to pronounce his name.
- 10:24Speaker 1: That's the only reason I know him.
- 10:25Speaker 3: Yeah, correct and so talented, no doubt about it. But
- 10:28Speaker 3: that's like us getting to Game three of our playoff
- 10:32Speaker 3: and starting Logan Evans. Yeah, I mean they're more they
- 10:36Speaker 3: throw a harder fastball, but I'm just from those guys
- 10:39Speaker 3: were not part of the plan when the season began.
- 10:42Speaker 3: They have been forced into the plan because of injuries
- 10:45Speaker 3: or ineffectiveness. We've got all five of our guy. Bryce
- 10:48Speaker 3: Miller's not gonna make a postseason rotation for goodness sake.
- 10:52Speaker 3: So that's how well equipped we are. And it's a
- 10:55Speaker 3: lot of credit to the Mariners, not just they're developing
- 10:57Speaker 3: a pitching talent, but also the way that they keep
- 10:59Speaker 3: the guys healthy, because almost every other starting rotation is
- 11:03Speaker 3: beliaguered at this point in the year, and ours feels
- 11:06Speaker 3: like it's its strongest it's been all season long. All right,
- 11:10Speaker 3: let's go to bullpen. How confident are you with the bullpen?
- 11:13Speaker 3: I'll get this start with it. I'm gonna go seven.
- 11:16Speaker 3: I like to make it a little bit higher, but
- 11:18Speaker 3: I think that is a notch up from where I
- 11:21Speaker 3: was maybe a month ago with this group, but keep
- 11:24Speaker 3: in mind with the rest and it really does help.
- 11:26Speaker 3: I mean, we got everybody available Saturday and Sunday nobody's
- 11:31Speaker 3: not available, and Munyos is available for more than three outs.
- 11:34Speaker 3: I mean, you saw it with Chapman. He hadn't thrown
- 11:36Speaker 3: a four out save all year long, but in game
- 11:38Speaker 3: number one of the playoffs, what did Boston do? They
- 11:40Speaker 3: went to Chapman in the eighth inning. So we also
- 11:44Speaker 3: have that at our disposal. We're gonna have Bryce Miller
- 11:46Speaker 3: back there. So yeah, I feel pretty good that we're
- 11:49Speaker 3: gonna confident that we're gonna get six innings most playoff
- 11:52Speaker 3: games out of our starters. Then you can now you
- 11:55Speaker 3: can combine forces Bucky, you can go a Ferguson and
- 11:58Speaker 3: Bizardo to get you through the seventh, and a brash
- 12:01Speaker 3: and aspire to get through through the eighth, and Munnos
- 12:04Speaker 3: if you need him, can even come into the eighth
- 12:06Speaker 3: and get it out. So I think it's really stacked
- 12:09Speaker 3: up well for this group, and so I think seven
- 12:11Speaker 3: is a solid number for them. I think we've had
- 12:13Speaker 3: better bullpens at this time of the year the last
- 12:15Speaker 3: few years, but I think that this won't be a
- 12:18Speaker 3: reason why we lose the postseason.
- 12:22Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean if I feel like if you do,
- 12:27Speaker 2: if you get bounced in this round, I think that's
- 12:30Speaker 2: where I think it would come from, to be honest.
- 12:32Speaker 2: And the only reason I say that's if if you
- 12:35Speaker 2: need to get through more than just two Indians, and
- 12:38Speaker 2: you're right, you can use Munnos for more if you want.
- 12:41Speaker 2: But if you're thinking about this is a month long
- 12:43Speaker 2: postseason that you're trying to go on, you're not saving
- 12:45Speaker 2: them early because every single win is important. But if
- 12:47Speaker 2: you're thinking about, Okay, no, this works out matchup wise,
- 12:50Speaker 2: we can go Bizartro I think is probably that dude,
- 12:53Speaker 2: or Gabe is probably that guy. If you go that
- 12:56Speaker 2: route and it's one of their off nights, then you know,
- 12:59Speaker 2: I think this offense can pick up the bullpen. I'm
- 13:02Speaker 2: going to go probably a seven. I maybe would lean
- 13:04Speaker 2: more towards even like a six and a half, but
- 13:06Speaker 2: that's because I feel real strong about a couple guys
- 13:09Speaker 2: and then the other guys that I know we're going
- 13:12Speaker 2: to need to rely on at some point in time
- 13:14Speaker 2: through at the course of this series and the rest
- 13:15Speaker 2: of the postseason. I just am like, I feel great
- 13:18Speaker 2: about bizarre, huh.
- 13:19Speaker 3: They've never been here. But yeah, I feel.
- 13:21Speaker 2: Great about the way Barzardo has pitched all year, and
- 13:23Speaker 2: yet I still don't. I feel the same as I
- 13:26Speaker 2: do about Carlos Vargas, who was unbelievable for the first
- 13:28Speaker 2: half of the season, first two thirds, and then he
- 13:31Speaker 2: scuffled a little bit as of late. I feel kind
- 13:33Speaker 2: of like Bizarro could be that guy too, and I
- 13:35Speaker 2: just don't want that to rear its ugly head in
- 13:37Speaker 2: the playoffs.
- 13:38Speaker 4: I'm going to go seven and a half, and that
- 13:40Speaker 4: is because I do feel like the rest is going
- 13:41Speaker 4: to be so important for them, and I think they
- 13:44Speaker 4: were overused quite a bit this year because the starters
- 13:47Speaker 4: weren't going deep enough into games and that screwed us
- 13:50Speaker 4: over for the next game.
- 13:51Speaker 1: In the next game when and they were going.
- 13:53Speaker 4: Back to back days and I just think they they
- 13:57Speaker 4: more than anyone, could really use that rest, and I
- 13:59Speaker 4: think it's going to be more most beneficial to them,
- 14:01Speaker 4: and I would go higher, but they've had those blow
- 14:03Speaker 4: ups too, so there is always that nervous factor.
- 14:05Speaker 1: But I think the seven and a half.
- 14:06Speaker 3: I love that Dan because I think Dan has gotten
- 14:10Speaker 3: better at managing now that we're not talking about you
- 14:15Speaker 3: got you got to play for one hundred and sixty two.
- 14:17Speaker 3: When he got to the point where he was just managing, like, no,
- 14:20Speaker 3: we got to play to win this game, I think
- 14:22Speaker 3: he really started to click. Yeah, and now you're getting
- 14:26Speaker 3: into the postseason and that's completely different animal. And so
- 14:30Speaker 3: let's just roll that. So I think that you're going
- 14:33Speaker 3: to see him, you know, I think it's going to
- 14:35Speaker 3: be slightly different, but I think it's going to fall
- 14:37Speaker 3: right into what he does best, frankly and trying to
- 14:41Speaker 3: figure out the matchups here. So let's get to manager
- 14:43Speaker 3: at your confidence level with Dan Wilson heading into the playoff.
- 14:47Speaker 2: Well, I mean he's gonna be going against who do
- 14:51Speaker 2: you got hinch? And who's the hinter or vote or vote?
- 14:55Speaker 2: I mean he's got to the year pretty much just
- 14:58Speaker 2: as much experience as vote. I mean, right there close
- 15:01Speaker 2: he's been. He's older and vote is obviously, and I
- 15:05Speaker 2: would say enough to vote. Yes, he is he really yeah,
- 15:09Speaker 2: just barely. That's good. That'd be amazing if he was
- 15:12Speaker 2: the manager of a big league team.
- 15:13Speaker 3: It's happened before Minnesota Twins. Yeah, yeah, yeah, eleven year old.
- 15:17Speaker 2: I think Angels in the outfield or something like that.
- 15:19Speaker 2: I don't even know what that is. I don't even
- 15:23Speaker 2: know what you're talking about. I feel good. I mean,
- 15:26Speaker 2: I I think that he has his pulse on the team.
- 15:30Speaker 2: And I think that we've heard guys talk about the
- 15:33Speaker 2: previous manager and I like service, but that he at
- 15:36Speaker 2: times looked he felt nervous.
- 15:38Speaker 6: He's like pacing.
- 15:39Speaker 2: And if you all of a sudden feel like you're
- 15:41Speaker 2: the captain of the ship is nervous, well, then that's
- 15:44Speaker 2: going to permeate throughout the rest of the team. I
- 15:46Speaker 2: don't think Dan has that. It's not like he doesn't
- 15:49Speaker 2: feel what's going on. I just don't think he stresses
- 15:51Speaker 2: out about it. He just is more in the kind
- 15:53Speaker 2: of optimistic I believe in you guys. I believe you
- 15:56Speaker 2: can do it, keep going, keep fighting, let's see what happens.
- 15:59Speaker 2: And so I I mean, I think I don't think
- 16:00Speaker 2: he's gonna make a bunch of horrific decisions. There's a
- 16:04Speaker 2: lot that rides on every single pitch and every single decision.
- 16:06Speaker 2: But I think i'd give him an eight eight.
- 16:09Speaker 4: What about you, Ashlely, Yeah, I'm probably gonna go seven
- 16:12Speaker 4: and a half, seven and three quarters. I want to
- 16:14Speaker 4: go to an eight, but yeah, there have been some
- 16:16Speaker 4: questionable things, and then the lack of experience is what
- 16:18Speaker 4: holds me back from going to an eight.
- 16:20Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go lower, I'm gonna go I'm gonna
- 16:24Speaker 3: I'm gonna go six. And that's given him the benefit
- 16:26Speaker 3: of the doubt. I think he I'm a little worried
- 16:28Speaker 3: about this because I think the game was a little
- 16:30Speaker 3: too fast for him at the beginning of the year,
- 16:32Speaker 3: and now the decisions they just come out of it's playoffs,
- 16:36Speaker 3: they just come at a more rapid pace. So I'm
- 16:38Speaker 3: a little worried about it. To be honest, it's probably
- 16:40Speaker 3: the thing that I'm worried most about. We don't have
- 16:43Speaker 3: time to go around the horn with this. But I
- 16:44Speaker 3: also I think mentality is also an important thing, and
- 16:47Speaker 3: I just love the mentality of this team. I get
- 16:49Speaker 3: it at a really high score as well. I have
- 16:53Speaker 3: watched the Mariners teams that I felt have shut down
- 16:57Speaker 3: at times. I have watched this team earlier in this
- 17:00Speaker 3: season where I felt like, guys, are you not focused?
- 17:03Speaker 3: Is what is happening here? And I suppose that's very
- 17:05Speaker 3: difficult to do. Over one hundred and sixty two games.
- 17:08Speaker 3: But since the Josh Naylor and Gino Swarez additions, Man,
- 17:13Speaker 3: I think that those two leaders for providing the suite
- 17:16Speaker 3: and the salt that this team needs, and the veteran
- 17:19Speaker 3: leadership and the grit when you need it, and the
- 17:21Speaker 3: patche on the back and the smile when you need it,
- 17:24Speaker 3: they've really rounded out this group. I don't think mentality
- 17:27Speaker 3: is going to be an issue. I think they are
- 17:29Speaker 3: really well constructed in this area. And I know Jerry
- 17:33Speaker 3: Depoto doesn't value clubhouse and leadership all that much. It's
- 17:37Speaker 3: been a criticism of him in the past. I do,
- 17:39Speaker 3: and I think that this group is really great right now.
- 17:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I bring them that the highest the mentality.
- 17:44Speaker 3: All right, coming up so important, Mike Sando is going
- 17:47Speaker 3: to join us. We'll talk some Thursday night Football Sports
- 17:49Speaker 3: Radio ninety three point three KJRFM and brought to you
- 17:52Speaker 3: by Hunt Services. Get on the horn and call Hunts
- 17:56Speaker 3: Now with Mike. Here's Chuck and Bud Well. So much
- 18:00Speaker 3: to talk about. It's been two weeks since we've chatted
- 18:03Speaker 3: with our NFL insider, Mike Sando, so let's get caught
- 18:06Speaker 3: up high. Mike, good morning, how are you. How are you?
- 18:09Speaker 3: How's the family? How's everything? We haven't talked in two weeks.
- 18:12Speaker 3: Everything good?
- 18:13Speaker 7: Oh, everything's good.
- 18:14Speaker 3: Everything's good. And we're gonna.
- 18:15Speaker 7: Motor through another season and having a lot of fun
- 18:18Speaker 7: doing it.
- 18:18Speaker 3: All right, Well, let's start with a Thursday night football game.
- 18:22Speaker 3: I usually save that toward the end, but it's a
- 18:24Speaker 3: division matchup, our division here in Seattle, and it's pretty
- 18:29Speaker 3: fascinating on its face. What do you think of forty
- 18:32Speaker 3: nine Ers Rams tonight?
- 18:34Speaker 7: It'll probably end up being some kind of a slugfest.
- 18:36Speaker 7: They've played some ugly games, but you would sure think
- 18:39Speaker 7: the Rams have the big advantage with the health. I mean,
- 18:42Speaker 7: the forty nine ers are really you know, they've not
- 18:44Speaker 7: only lost Nick Bosa, but they've got their quarterbacks out
- 18:47Speaker 7: and George Kittle's out, and I don't know if Christian
- 18:51Speaker 7: McCaffrey's the same player. Shoot, the more I talk, the
- 18:54Speaker 7: more the X are going to be upset. They lost
- 18:55Speaker 7: that first game to them. But you gotta like the Rams,
- 18:59Speaker 7: don't you?
- 19:00Speaker 3: I do? And I don't. I mean eight. It's going
- 19:02Speaker 3: from one and a half to eight and a half points,
- 19:04Speaker 3: which seems kind of crazy to me. Mac Jones are not.
- 19:08Speaker 3: That's it. I kind of like the Rams not only
- 19:11Speaker 3: to win the game, but to kind of dominate this
- 19:14Speaker 3: game tonight. I just think that there's a discrepancy. I
- 19:16Speaker 3: heard Greg Cosell breaking down the forty nine Ers running
- 19:19Speaker 3: game just yesterday, and he's like, they can't run the football.
- 19:23Speaker 3: A team with Christian McCaffrey and Kyle Shanahan and they
- 19:26Speaker 3: can't run the football this year.
- 19:29Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, completely, I agree with you. It's concerning now.
- 19:32Speaker 7: Like I said, sometimes these games turn out to be
- 19:36Speaker 7: ugly dog fights anyway. And you know, so the eight
- 19:39Speaker 7: and a half would scare me a little bit just
- 19:42Speaker 7: because it wouldn't shock me at all if it was,
- 19:45Speaker 7: you know, if it somehow ended up being a twenty
- 19:48Speaker 7: to fourteen game or something, right, And sometimes the game
- 19:51Speaker 7: just maybe the Rams just do enough to win the game, right,
- 19:54Speaker 7: It could be that, But on paper, there's no way.
- 19:58Speaker 7: On paper, eight and a half seems fine.
- 20:01Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean when you're looking at this, I mean, obviously,
- 20:04Speaker 2: by talking about the Thursday night game, it sounds like
- 20:08Speaker 2: leaning in the direction of the Rams. If it's not
- 20:10Speaker 2: for anything, just even more than just the health at
- 20:12Speaker 2: this point and the lack of run game out of
- 20:14Speaker 2: San Francisco. But when you just look at the division
- 20:16Speaker 2: right now and measuring Seattle up against everybody where, do
- 20:20Speaker 2: you kind of feel like they sit even though they're
- 20:22Speaker 2: sitting at three in one just like the other two.
- 20:24Speaker 3: I think I just.
- 20:25Speaker 7: Slot them in right behind the Rams until they beat them. Now,
- 20:27Speaker 7: they didn't beat the forty nine ers eater, but I'm sorry,
- 20:29Speaker 7: I think they would beat them again. I think they
- 20:30Speaker 7: would have beat them the next week. You know, they
- 20:32Speaker 7: probably should have beaten them, you know, with you and
- 20:35Speaker 7: I think just given the state of the teams. So
- 20:38Speaker 7: but I think there's a burden of proof on Seattle
- 20:40Speaker 7: to beat the Rams, and I need to see that
- 20:42Speaker 7: and once I do, then we can go that way.
- 20:44Speaker 3: I'm a thousand percent with you on that. Mike Sander
- 20:46Speaker 3: is with us our NFL insider from the Athletic. You
- 20:49Speaker 3: can of course follow them at Sando NFL and of
- 20:52Speaker 3: course you all are. What about Seahawks Buccaneers. This shaping
- 20:55Speaker 3: up to be one of the best matchups this weekend?
- 20:58Speaker 7: It is The Bucks are super in injured team, too
- 21:02Speaker 7: unbelievable injury list for them, So it's a game that
- 21:04Speaker 7: the you know, the Seahawks should win at home. But
- 21:07Speaker 7: but the Bucks are frisky. Baker Mayfield's frisky. I mean,
- 21:10Speaker 7: he's a gamer. He's going to come in there and
- 21:12Speaker 7: he's gonna lay it on the line. He may give
- 21:13Speaker 7: you two passes you can intercept, but he may throw
- 21:16Speaker 7: you know, three three touchdowns too. I just think he's
- 21:18Speaker 7: a gamer. I like, I like what he's brought to
- 21:21Speaker 7: their team. I do think they're super banged up and
- 21:24Speaker 7: it's hard to come across the country. So it's a
- 21:26Speaker 7: game the Seahawks kind of like that game against the Ferdinators.
- 21:29Speaker 7: They should be disappointed if they lose it.
- 21:31Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Well, another guy's frisk here is looking fairly frisky. Is
- 21:35Speaker 2: our our own ginger Sam. Sam Darnold is playing pretty
- 21:39Speaker 2: darn well at this point. I anybody I have to
- 21:41Speaker 2: take advantage of anybody that's a Redhead.
- 21:43Speaker 3: That does the good thing.
- 21:44Speaker 2: So, I mean, how are you feelings a rare well
- 21:47Speaker 2: that they do good things or that were just rare both.
- 21:51Speaker 3: I don't know how to explained it. It was unnecessary.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Yeah, So, I mean he just he's playing well at
- 21:58Speaker 2: this point. I think there's still his room for growth
- 22:00Speaker 2: with this Seahawks offense. But he's you've got to be
- 22:03Speaker 2: happy with what you're seeing on him so far.
- 22:04Speaker 7: Yeah, extremely, And I'll give you an I've wrote a
- 22:07Speaker 7: column today about, you know, the Vikings difficult decision the
- 22:10Speaker 7: quarterback that they had to make and how it's you know,
- 22:12Speaker 7: the part of the component of was that Donald's looking
- 22:15Speaker 7: so good. And so I had last season when Donald
- 22:18Speaker 7: was doing well with the Vikings, I had gotten together
- 22:21Speaker 7: with the coach and we watched the video of Donald
- 22:24Speaker 7: and he wasn't overly impressed. I mean, yes, they were
- 22:26Speaker 7: doing well, but there were Donald was just okay, just fine.
- 22:31Speaker 7: He was just mid. And we went and watched Donald
- 22:34Speaker 7: with Seattle this year and the coach was I couldn't
- 22:37Speaker 7: believe it. He's like, man, this guy's on another level.
- 22:40Speaker 7: He was like, this is kind of Tier one quarterbacking,
- 22:44Speaker 7: just the way he's the way he's placing the football
- 22:47Speaker 7: so intelligently. And you notice that in against some of
- 22:52Speaker 7: the zones where sometimes that the ball might even look
- 22:56Speaker 7: like it's behind the receiver, but he's really turning the
- 23:00Speaker 7: away from an on rushing defender. Right, That's what he's
- 23:03Speaker 7: really doing. It's kind of advanced quarterbacking. When you're placing
- 23:06Speaker 7: the ball in specific spots to either lead your receiver
- 23:13Speaker 7: for extra yards or maybe in a deep ball. You
- 23:17Speaker 7: don't stretch him out as much because you're trying to
- 23:21Speaker 7: increase the chances that he catches it, so you give
- 23:23Speaker 7: him a chance instead of making them sprint and dive
- 23:26Speaker 7: for it. Right, the little nuanced things like that. I
- 23:29Speaker 7: think we could see him against pressure too, like that
- 23:32Speaker 7: Pittsburgh game where he's just getting got a guy in
- 23:34Speaker 7: his lap, the guard gets thrown in the air and
- 23:37Speaker 7: he just sort of feathers it out there leading his
- 23:40Speaker 7: receiver for a touchdown. Right, there's just a lot of
- 23:42Speaker 7: really good.
- 23:43Speaker 3: Signs from him that looks real. It looks great. Yeah.
- 23:51Speaker 3: And if you think Minnesota looks foolish, I mean, how
- 23:54Speaker 3: a neep does Carolina look based off of this Mayfield
- 23:58Speaker 3: the Darnald matchup. I mean, I mean that organization just
- 24:03Speaker 3: cannot get it together. And it's it's like they're back
- 24:05Speaker 3: to square one. Bryce Young looks terrible again and Andy
- 24:09Speaker 3: Dalton looks better again. And yet are you gonna do
- 24:13Speaker 3: Are you gonna do the same thing again this year?
- 24:16Speaker 3: But you know, to try to fix the Carolina Panthers
- 24:18Speaker 3: I mean, they just they just can't fix it.
- 24:21Speaker 7: It is, it is difficult. I don't know what they're
- 24:24Speaker 7: I don't know that's their problem, right, They got to
- 24:26Speaker 7: figure that out. But it is amazing that these two
- 24:29Speaker 7: guys were both there, and who knows, maybe at that
- 24:31Speaker 7: point those guys weren't as ready as they are now.
- 24:33Speaker 3: You know.
- 24:33Speaker 7: I think since then Sam Darnold got a year with
- 24:35Speaker 7: Kyle Shanahan, and you also get a year removed from expectations.
- 24:39Speaker 3: You know.
- 24:40Speaker 7: I don't know how that always affects everybody, but I
- 24:43Speaker 7: think there's something to that. I think for a Donald
- 24:45Speaker 7: or even a Daniel Jones, that New York New Jersey
- 24:49Speaker 7: market thing where you're the first round pick, I think
- 24:51Speaker 7: there's a wait to that, and then beyond that didn't
- 24:56Speaker 7: have the teams around them to support it. So I
- 24:58Speaker 7: think with Donald last year in Minnesota and this your sale,
- 25:01Speaker 7: they've got good defense.
- 25:02Speaker 3: You know.
- 25:02Speaker 7: I think that that takes something off of you a
- 25:04Speaker 7: little bit. And I think when you go in and
- 25:06Speaker 7: replace Tom Brady with no expectations in Tampa, everything you
- 25:11Speaker 7: do is kind of a bonus, right, So I think
- 25:13Speaker 7: some of that framing can help too, just psychologically.
- 25:16Speaker 2: Anything you're I mean, how concerned are you about the
- 25:20Speaker 2: Ravens at this point in time?
- 25:21Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm very concerned because I think when you have
- 25:24Speaker 7: that many serious injuries, like I don't buy into the oh,
- 25:27Speaker 7: Lamar can't do it in a big game thing. I
- 25:29Speaker 7: don't think that's their problem. I mean, they're five highest
- 25:33Speaker 7: paid players by average salary are out. Okay, So when
- 25:36Speaker 7: you have that, they're basically got about one hundred and
- 25:40Speaker 7: thirty five million dollars of annual salary that's being replaced
- 25:43Speaker 7: this week by ten million dollars of annual salary. So
- 25:46Speaker 7: you can't overcome that. At a certain point, you just
- 25:49Speaker 7: can't do it. So that's my problem. My fear for
- 25:51Speaker 7: them is can they get healthy enough quickly enough on
- 25:55Speaker 7: the defensive.
- 25:56Speaker 3: Side of the ball.
- 25:57Speaker 7: Let alone Lamar Jackson with the hamstring which could link
- 26:00Speaker 7: and he's an elite athlete who really compeach you with
- 26:02Speaker 7: his legs, is that going to be gone from him?
- 26:04Speaker 3: A little bit? Sixty percent?
- 26:06Speaker 7: Lamar may not be enough Lamar.
- 26:09Speaker 3: I need more Lamar. Yeah.
- 26:11Speaker 7: I get to gun it out against Josh Allen. And
- 26:14Speaker 7: now if the if the Chiefs are a little bit
- 26:15Speaker 7: healthier and are better on offense. You know that's gonna
- 26:17Speaker 7: be tough.
- 26:18Speaker 3: Is Cleveland Meghan the right choice now to go to
- 26:20Speaker 3: Gabriel or does it even matter? Yeah?
- 26:23Speaker 7: I totally think you can't. Just if you've got a
- 26:27Speaker 7: bad team, you can't play with the forty year old quarterback, right,
- 26:31Speaker 7: I mean, you just can't do it. So I've really
- 26:33Speaker 7: they've bothered me the last couple of years because they
- 26:35Speaker 7: just stuck with Deshaun Watson because they had so much
- 26:38Speaker 7: money in him, and it was like everyone could see
- 26:39Speaker 7: it's not working. So hey, they tried a few games.
- 26:42Speaker 7: If it had been really hitting with Flacco and they
- 26:45Speaker 7: looked like, hey, you know what, they're gonna win a
- 26:46Speaker 7: down AFC North this year, then you could stick with Flacco.
- 26:50Speaker 7: But it doesn't look like that, so you drafted these
- 26:52Speaker 7: two hitter guys. Let's let let's let Gabriel have some
- 26:56Speaker 7: games and you know, maybe the coaching staff likes him.
- 27:00Speaker 7: I got the feeling in the draft the coaching staff
- 27:02Speaker 7: probably liked him, and then the organization sort of made
- 27:04Speaker 7: him take or later.
- 27:05Speaker 3: That's just what it felt like to me. You know,
- 27:07Speaker 3: people here on the show that it's NFL insider Mike Sando,
- 27:11Speaker 3: who made it big in the football world. They're probably thinking, well,
- 27:14Speaker 3: in order to cover the entire National Football League, he
- 27:17Speaker 3: probably lives in a posh, floating bubble above Middle America.
- 27:21Speaker 3: Probably what they think. That seems reasonable, But you actually
- 27:24Speaker 3: live right down the street. So are you fired up
- 27:26Speaker 3: for some Mariners baseball this weekend? I love it? Now.
- 27:31Speaker 7: The problem I've had is that through their root sports
- 27:35Speaker 7: ri ip thing, I can't I couldn't get them on
- 27:38Speaker 7: YouTube TV. That's correct, right, you don't have to worry
- 27:41Speaker 7: about that. It's going to be National Net. Now I
- 27:44Speaker 7: get to watch them.
- 27:45Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 27:45Speaker 7: Oh, what I'm saying is I haven't had.
- 27:48Speaker 3: The ability to. You know, I've had NBA. I've had
- 27:51Speaker 3: such a football guy. You'd find out way if you cared, Mike.
- 27:55Speaker 7: That's true, But I'm not gonna I'm not gonna work
- 27:57Speaker 7: for it that hard in my line of work. I've
- 28:00Speaker 7: catch them when I can. I love it. I love
- 28:01Speaker 7: to go to a game. But now I'm going to
- 28:03Speaker 7: actually turn it on. I'm totally gonna watch. I love it.
- 28:06Speaker 7: I've missed, you know, obviously missed the Sonics, and you
- 28:10Speaker 7: know we missed the Mariners being good.
- 28:12Speaker 3: So Let's take it you would dig a twenty foot
- 28:15Speaker 3: trench to watch the Rams and forty nine ers today.
- 28:18Speaker 7: That's true, That's true, very much true.
- 28:22Speaker 3: I would. I mean, that's what I do.
- 28:25Speaker 7: I can't say that I like baseball as much, but
- 28:26Speaker 7: I do love all right, Baseball to me is like golf.
- 28:30Speaker 7: Like if I'm playing golf, it means I have time.
- 28:31Speaker 7: If I'm watching baseball, it means I have time.
- 28:33Speaker 3: And I love that. Well, you make some time this week,
- 28:35Speaker 3: and you make some absolutely all right, Thank you, Mike.
- 28:37Speaker 3: We'll talk to you next week. Thank you, Mike Sando
- 28:41Speaker 3: joining us here thanks to Hunt Services. Get a plumber, electrician,

- 29:00Speaker 6: Nice horns and cans.
- 29:03Speaker 3: We close out with one last thing next Sports Radio
- 29:06Speaker 3: ninety three point three KJRFM, the final segment of the
- 29:15Speaker 3: show here on this Thursday. And you know how we
- 29:19Speaker 3: do it. We go round the room, one last thing.
- 29:21Speaker 3: Whatever's on your mind? What do you got, buggy, Well, first,
- 29:25Speaker 3: let me turn that on.
- 29:26Speaker 2: I am picking Guardians, Oh Red, Sox.
- 29:35Speaker 3: And Cubs to win tonight. It's the opposite of what
- 29:38Speaker 3: I'm picking, is it really Yes, I think the Padres could,
- 29:42Speaker 3: but for some reason, I just feel like the Cubs might.
- 29:45Speaker 2: They might be that little bit of a Cinderella. I mean,
- 29:47Speaker 2: at least through a round or possibly two. And if
- 29:50Speaker 2: they are, they would have to knock off a team
- 29:52Speaker 2: that I think they're they're not as good as. But
- 29:55Speaker 2: that Jamison Tallion or whatever, the guy that's starting for them,
- 29:59Speaker 2: he's he's got a little bit of a shovet gene
- 30:02Speaker 2: in him. I think we'll see you. Darvis is going
- 30:06Speaker 2: up against him. I mean, that's gonna be a really
- 30:09Speaker 2: interesting game.
- 30:10Speaker 3: And obviously the other going up against the Potter bullpen.
- 30:13Speaker 3: They're gonna empty the vault and they've got like eight arms,
- 30:16Speaker 3: So that's what Darva's probably over three. I'm gonna bet
- 30:20Speaker 3: he's gonna go three.
- 30:22Speaker 2: Huh Man, we shall see. It's gonna be interesting, win
- 30:27Speaker 2: or go home.
- 30:27Speaker 3: Boys. It's great. I mean normally, baseball, I mean baseball
- 30:32Speaker 3: is a hard time getting to deciding games. They've had
- 30:36Speaker 3: a really difficult time with it, especially in this wild
- 30:38Speaker 3: card round. They can't get to those third and decisive games.
- 30:41Speaker 3: If they get one. They feel fortunate this year they
- 30:44Speaker 3: got three out of the four, so you know they're
- 30:46Speaker 3: loving it. And they get Yankees Red Sox at five
- 30:49Speaker 3: o'clock and prime time tonight. They might actually take a
- 30:52Speaker 3: few ratings away from football. Not a lot. Yeah, well
- 30:56Speaker 3: that part the.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Country will be a whole heck of a lot more
- 30:58Speaker 2: interesting West Coast and most football fans will be like, yeah,
- 31:02Speaker 2: maybe watch that on the second TV Monday.
- 31:05Speaker 3: It starts at noon. By the way, the last two
- 31:08Speaker 3: days Guardians and Tigers have played at ten, but because
- 31:10Speaker 3: the Dodgers advanced, there are only three games today, so
- 31:13Speaker 3: they decided that they're gonna started a couple hours later.
- 31:16Speaker 3: So it's noon, two and five. Those are the start
- 31:19Speaker 3: times for the three games today. All right, Ashley, what's
- 31:22Speaker 3: your one last thing?
- 31:23Speaker 1: Well, there's been a local sports tour happening.
- 31:26Speaker 4: So at the Husky game on Saturday, Julio cal Emerson
- 31:30Speaker 4: and now I'm forgetting who else was there?
- 31:33Speaker 3: JP? Was it?
- 31:34Speaker 1: JP?
- 31:35Speaker 3: I don't think it was last night the hockey game.
- 31:37Speaker 1: No, Emerson, it was at the Husky game. Four of
- 31:40Speaker 1: them were there. Yeah, they gave cal the mic.
- 31:42Speaker 4: He of course told the Huskies to go win the
- 31:45Speaker 4: f and thing, which everyone erupted and it was awesome.
- 31:49Speaker 1: Then the Kraken were also.
- 31:50Speaker 4: There at the game, and so that was kind of fun,
- 31:53Speaker 4: just you know, everybody kind of doing it up with
- 31:55Speaker 4: all the local sports. And then last night the final
- 31:57Speaker 4: preseason game, seeing so many Mariners there, Josh Naylor wearing
- 32:01Speaker 4: his third jersey, Yeah, it was It was just cool.
- 32:04Speaker 4: And then I did notice though at one point they
- 32:05Speaker 4: were showing them on TV and Julio was trying to
- 32:08Speaker 4: get back to his seat and he tripped a little
- 32:10Speaker 4: bit over the guy and.
- 32:12Speaker 1: Next to him his foot and I almost had a panic.
- 32:14Speaker 4: He kept his balance and everything, but I was like, oh,
- 32:17Speaker 4: just stay in your seat and make people bring to
- 32:20Speaker 4: trip him. Was no, this was another Marriner's his friend
- 32:24Speaker 4: or something.
- 32:25Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, get your feet out of the way. Yeah,
- 32:28Speaker 1: come on, man, shrink your feet.
- 32:30Speaker 3: Did Josh Does Josh know that his uniform glows in
- 32:33Speaker 3: the dark?
- 32:33Speaker 1: I hope he does.
- 32:34Speaker 3: I hope he didn't. And then he got home He's
- 32:36Speaker 3: like I can't believe it.
- 32:37Speaker 1: And then he or he was like, oh, I can't
- 32:39Speaker 1: see I need to turn on.
- 32:40Speaker 3: A what my sleeves have lights on him?
- 32:43Speaker 1: That would have been awesome.
- 32:45Speaker 3: I'm going to read a book. That's great.
- 32:47Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean he looks really happy in the photo
- 32:49Speaker 4: that Mike Benton posted, which makes me think he does
- 32:51Speaker 4: know the jersey clothes in the dark, because you don't
- 32:53Speaker 4: get that smile from a regular jersey.
- 32:55Speaker 3: Yeah. He's a really serious dude, So if he's smiling
- 32:58Speaker 3: from ear to ear, he knows that's right. He knows
- 33:01Speaker 3: my shirt closed in the dark and it doesn't. Oh yeah,
- 33:03Speaker 3: and wrote the zamboni, speaking of which that was actually
- 33:07Speaker 3: gonna be my one last thing. So I'm gonna be
- 33:09Speaker 3: down obviously Saturday and Sunday for a lot of the
- 33:12Speaker 3: day because I don't like getting caught in traffic, so
- 33:15Speaker 3: I go early when I go to a game like this,
- 33:18Speaker 3: especially a couple of days like this, so I'm gonna
- 33:21Speaker 3: have a little time to kick it around. And I
- 33:22Speaker 3: was thinking, because I'm not a jersey person, do I
- 33:26Speaker 3: buy a Mariner's jersey? And if I buy a Mariner's jersey,
- 33:32Speaker 3: who should I get?
- 33:35Speaker 2: Answer?
- 33:35Speaker 3: Based off of your knowing me, Well, you probably should
- 33:40Speaker 3: get a picture, probably, That's what I'm thinking.
- 33:43Speaker 2: But it's cal Rawly is really the one you should get.
- 33:47Speaker 2: I mean, if you want to get a guy that
- 33:49Speaker 2: plays every five days, Go ahead and do that, or
- 33:51Speaker 2: you can get a guy that hits sixty homers. And
- 33:53Speaker 2: I was like, you know, basically controls all of those other.
- 33:57Speaker 3: I just there's just gonna be so many.
- 34:00Speaker 1: Though it's a popular one.
- 34:02Speaker 3: I'm leaning a little bit toward Logan.
- 34:05Speaker 4: Just really like you're also supporting twenty nine by wearing
- 34:09Speaker 4: a Logan jersey because they're besties.
- 34:10Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you think? I mean, I'm not a
- 34:12Speaker 3: jersey guy. Should I buy a Mariner's jersey?
- 34:15Speaker 4: My concern is if you haven't had one, now, is
- 34:19Speaker 4: now the right time to buy it?
- 34:22Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 34:22Speaker 1: I don't want it.
- 34:23Speaker 3: I can't wear it to the game. No, I'd have
- 34:25Speaker 3: to just keep it in the sack.
- 34:27Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. Yeah, So I feel like, maybe you wait, wait, yeah.
- 34:31Speaker 3: Make my own at home like I did when I
- 34:33Speaker 3: was a kid.
- 34:34Speaker 1: There you go.
- 34:34Speaker 4: Yeah, and who knows, maybe the Mariners will sign Nailor
- 34:36Speaker 4: and then you want to Nailer jersey.
- 34:38Speaker 1: You never know.
- 34:39Speaker 3: Yeah, I couldn't buy one now.
- 34:41Speaker 1: No, you can't uncertainty, Yeah, you gotta to wait till

- 34:49Speaker 3: who was a center fielder for the Baltimore Orioles, and

- 35:13Speaker 3: the back of a white tea, did you wear it?

- 35:18Speaker 1: now this is ruine.
- 35:19Speaker 2: I can't get back a white T shirt. You'd get
- 35:21Speaker 2: five of them, put all the starters put on. I
- 35:26Speaker 2: need to rip them off as they come up to
