• 1:25
  Speaker 6: Ferry ran over to Widby, OH, hung out with family at.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: A winery on Saturday nights.
• 1:33
  Speaker 6: Went to some softball tryout and it was actually really fun.
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: It was sunny and it was a good way to
• 1:40
  Speaker 6: spend a Sunday morning. Okay, good, And then hung out
• 1:43
  Speaker 6: on a friend's back deck all afternoon.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: What hell? I know what that means.
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: It means we were supposed to be unpacking her house
• 1:51
  Speaker 6: because she just moved in, and instead we dropped wine.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Oh I see, Oh I took it to something else.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Oh what'd you take euromism? Hung out to friend's back den.
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: We were supposed to go over and unpacked stuff and
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: I got there, They're like, we're taking a break.
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: We put together a credenza. Oh okay.
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: And then they said so we're going to have a
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: glass of wine and then we're going to go back
• 2:09
  Speaker 6: to work.
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: And I looked at them. I was like, you're not
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: going back to work, and I was right, yeah.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: They didn't.
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: Instead they poured tequila shots for people on the golf course.
• 2:17
  Speaker 6: You know what, their best life.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: It just goes with building a credenza. I had a
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: nickel for every time that I started building a credenza
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: and ended up drunk on tequila.
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: I know, right, Yeah it is hand in hand, Yeah,
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: one and the same bags, one and the same I
• 2:36
  Speaker 6: was very proud of myself.
• 2:37
  Speaker 5: I didn't have any tequila, is that right?
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: I managed to avoid it every time, and there was
• 2:41
  Speaker 6: probably fifteen.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: Rounds of shots that were handed out that day.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I have like a I have not a great relationship
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: with tequila. And it's really it's just like one time.
• 2:54
  Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know that a lot of people
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: have a great relationship with.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: People do though, because I think the mistake that we
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: make is we put it with like Margarita's and then
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: we drink like cheap stuff like apparently like the really
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: good tequila that you just drink.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: Oh, if you sip it, yeah.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: It is phenomenal. But I've never done that because I
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: had one bad experience with it years ago, and and
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: so for it's like for me, it's like, well, I
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: like that one. I've never had a bad experience with that,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: And why would I do that if this one's really
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: good for me? Right now?
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: I understand you, I should say I should get over it.
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: I think not many people have a good experience with
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: tequila shots.
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: That's what I should have said, because yes, there is tequila.
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: That's good.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Sip in tequila, oh yeah, but oh yeah, especially a
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: top a brand new, poorly constructed, let's face it, because
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: everyone was drunk.
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: Credenza, that's right. That's where we all sat on top
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: of the credenza.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: The broken cadenza, that's right. That could not hold our
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: weight because we forgot to put a piece to it.
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: We tried though.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: All right, well, good morning to you. I just want
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: to say this because there are time that I start
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: a show angry about my drive in just I'm just
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: gonna fit just I sometimes driving just makes me angry,
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: and it's because of all of you people, truely, because
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I do it perfectly. Okay, so sometimes I do. I
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: had a golden ride this morning, golden ride. It struck
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: me as I got on Mercer, like I have not
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: been angry with one motorist today, which is a new record. Yeah,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: not one. And then it's like the traffic gods or
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: maybe God himself, was like, hey, for not complaining, for
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: not shouting, for not calling anybody a name, your entire
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: drive from Woodinville, I'm gonna give you every green light.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: That sounds like a magic Monday.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Perfect ride right down normally horrible, horrible stop every five
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: feet street and made it here. So a golden ride.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: I mean we're off to a great start.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah we are.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: So let's take that great feeling, that great mood that
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: we're all in, and let's fire a manager.
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: Oh, I thought you were gonna praise everyone.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: No, but you know what, Honestly, you know, I was
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: worked up on Saturday about Dan.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: I sent out a text to everyone just to let
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: you know what was coming and in case something did
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: happen that I'm on top of it. I'm ahead of this, yep.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden you win, and then
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: all of a sudden you start a brand new week,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: and then you have a golden ride in and then
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: you find out about a friend's trip to a deck
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: to build a credenza on tequila, and it softens your heart. Yes,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: it softens your mood, but not enough, not enough. I
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: don't take this lightly. I take no joy in it.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I try not to over act. I think that is
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: my responsibility. I think that a lot of people that
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: sit in this seat and have this microphone and have
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: this YouTube channel in these platforms. They can't wait to
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: lop off heads. They just can't wait to do it.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Just never been my style. If it was, it's because
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: I was an over exuberant young broadcaster who thought I
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: had to have hot takes. I'm certainly twenty years removed
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: from that, if not more in my career, and so
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: I do really try to use this as last resort.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: But I'm I think it's I think Dan Wilson's run
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: his course. I don't think he's the right guy for
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the job. And we're going to get into some reasons why.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: I will say, though, before I get into the reasons,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: that I think that this team can still accomplish all
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: the goals that we had set for it, that they
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: had set for themselves with Dan Wilson as manager. I
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: mean the Dallas Cowboys one with Barry Switzer as a
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: head coach, you know, because they were well constructed and
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: the clubhouse was strong enough. And I don't think Dan
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: is I think he could still get this job done.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Look how close we came a year ago. But that said,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I also gave him a C minus a year ago.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: As Ashley remembers, I'll remind the audience that was my
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: letter grade for him, and that was at the end
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: of the year, right I gave him a C minus,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: and I went into the playoffs saying, it's the thing
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I'm worried the most about with this team is Dan
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Wilson and whether or not he's going to press the
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: right buttons. And I don't think that he did in
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the postseason. I even said at the end of last year, Hey,
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's out of the question. If you
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: believe you've got a world championship team but you have
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: an unproven manager in that arena, that would it be
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: out of the question to consider an upgrade at the
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: managerial position. They did not. I don't think that they
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: had even crossed their minds, and I don't know if
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: it's crossing their minds now, but I will just say
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: as that game ended Saturday, and I watched those Mariner
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: players stay in the dugout and stare at the field
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: like they just lost a championship. You only see teams
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: do that after they've lost a championship and they want
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: to soak in the pain of watching another team celebrate.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: The Rays just won a regular season game, two games
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: shy of the All Star break. That was not like
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: some significant win or loss on paper, but it obviously
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: meant more to the players Saturday than just a normal
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon in early July. They got touched by something,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: They felt something Saturday. They realized, Man, we are bad
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: right now. We are a bad baseball team, and there
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: is no reason why we should be. We have the
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: pieces we have, the pitching we have. We don't have
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: a great lineup. We've never had a great lineup in
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: the Depoto era, but it should be at least a
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: good one. We shouldn't be making this many errors defensively.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: We shouldn't be struggling this much to get twenty seven outs.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: We should be doing a better job. I don't know
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: why we never can hit with runners in scoring position.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Why do we have these episodes of somebody deciding not
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: to hustle in the middle of a baseball game. Why
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: are we having base running blunders? Why as our superstar
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: hitting one seventy at the All Star Break, I mean
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: you could see it on their faces. I mean they
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: just look like we have failed. That was the look
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: on their faces. And we have got to fix this thing.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: We cannot kick a season, not the way that we're structured,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: not the way that we're built, not with how close
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: we came a year ago to making it to the
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: World Series. And so something happened, something deep happened Saturday.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: And I don't know if finally Dan Wilson overturned tables
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: and let the locker room on fire, I doubt it.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know if there was a closed door meetings.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: Those things are overdone. Don't know if they always fixed things.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying that there was a completely different fire
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: on Saturday. A Sunday, I'm not sure if there was,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: but they certainly came out and played better even with
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Emerson Hancock leaving the game. The bullpen stepped up, got
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: its job done offensively. You scored some runs. I don't
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: know what would have happened had we only scored one
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: run in that basis loaded situation. And JP Crawford got
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: his little flute flare, which is good. That's a good
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: sign for JP down the way field line, and that
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: turned it from a one run inning to a three
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: run inning and tend to put us on the right
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: track at that point. Maybe it's a different game if
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: that doesn't fall. But obviously a pretty easy victory by
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: comparison on Sunday, and so you at least get to
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: taste victory heading into the All Star break. But Ashley,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to forget about Saturday, No, and that
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: feeling on Saturday. And my feeling was as the night
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: went on and I sat with that loss and a
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: five game losing streak on the road and watching a
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: team that I picked to go to the World Series
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: just play like garbage, not just for the last five days,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: but for the entirety of the first half of the
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: baseball season. We don't have the right manager. That's what
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: struck me Saturday. That's where I sit on Monday morning.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's the right guy for the job.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: And I know he's nice, and I know he's a
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: playing legend in this town, and yet I mean, where
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: is the strength in his game as a manager? Because
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: I was under the impression it was his ability to
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: relate to all the players that they want to fight
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: for him because he's always got their back. And yet
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: we've had way too many examples of sloppy, lazy, emotionless
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: baseball that has been played here in the first half.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: So he's not even touching that. He's not even reaching
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: his individual players, much less the collective on how the
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: game needs to be played, how winning baseball is played,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: much less championship baseball. Dan may not know how championship
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: baseball's played. He's never played it.
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and I would say, yeah, being nice and being
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: a legend is not That wouldn't be the top two
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: things to have on my list for looking for a manager.
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: I was thinking this morning before I came in, I'm
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: gonna play the Mariners win song.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: But it doesn't feel like a win. You lost five
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: in a.
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: Row before you you had a good game yesterday.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: You won yesterday like by a lot.
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: It looked your offense looked good, and the pitching staff
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: stepped up when they really needed to. But it just
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: feels like celebrating below mediocrity. To have won one out
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: of the six games in Florida.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Well, and I think that's what brought me to this
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: lowly state. I don't like doing it. I think I've
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: done it twice. I think I did it with Jacks Forensic.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: I think I did it with Lorenzo Romar. Since I
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: came to town eleven years ago. So I don't do
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: this lightly. But I just did arrive Saturday at the
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: conclusion we need a new manager and nothing about Sunday
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: has changed that. And then I thought to myself, because
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I did send out the text on Saturday to Ashley
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: and others at the station, just in case they do
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: pop him on Sunday. But you know, even service, they
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: waited until he was coming back, not until he got back,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: but yeah, he was. The road trip was over before
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: they on his way back, yeah, before they made that decision.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: So I wasn't surprised at didn't happen on Sunday, it
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: happens this morning, or it doesn't happen Okay, there's no
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: way they're gonna do it on Tuesday evening or Wednesday
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: afternoon or anything like that. I don't know. Maybe maybe
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: they would wait to not show up the All Star
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Game and you would have Wednesday and Thursday off still
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: to kind of wrap your heads around it, light a
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: fire under this team, and start anew with your new manager.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: On Friday. I'm gonna doubt that it happens at all.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I'm not surprised that it hasn't happened yet, even if
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Jerry Justin and others have arrived at the same conclusion
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: that I did on Saturday. But managers today just don't
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: affect the game the way that they used to. From
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: an x's and O standpoint, you have analytics which drive
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: a lot of decisions for a lot of organize. All organizations,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: All managers in baseball pray to the analytic gods to
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: some degree. Some are a little more loyal than others.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Dave Roberts is loyal to a fault. Just in case
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: you're wondering, that's the Dodgers manager who's on top of
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: the managerial world right now. But he's loyal to analytics
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: to a fault, I believe. So a lot of those
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: decisions are made for you. Nobody hitting run, nobody bunts anymore.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Nobody I mean stolen bases. I mean, you don't even
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: give a sign for stolen bases. Everybody's got a green light.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: You think Josh Naylor's ever gotten a steal second sign
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: from anyone, and yet he has eighteen stolen bases at
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: the All Star Break for goodness sake, And it's because
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: everybody seems to have the green light. Maybe on occasion
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: you'll be told not to steal, but for the most part,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: that's not even managerially controlled. The things that managers control
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: are three things basically. Number one, pitching changes, which I
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: think he's terrible at, as you know by now if
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: you've listened to this show. Pinch hitter decisions, which I
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: think he's been bad at, and I know he's been
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: bad at it because he's corrected, right, He's changed the
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: way he did it. Somebody got to him and said
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: he can't do it that way, which is what we
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: were saying on this show the entire season. You can't
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: do it that and he started to change the way
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: he does. So that's an admission of buh Boah, I
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: was doing that wrong, or at least somebody was telling
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: you you're doing it wrong, don't do it again. He
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: might disagree with that person, but he's changed, so I
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: think he's been bad at that. And then the one
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: saving grace was I know that the players like him,
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: but I think the players like him because he always
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: has their back. That's why he has boring ass press
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: conferences all the time because he won't call anybody out.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: And players do like that, they do appreciate it, but
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: sometimes that's not that effective of a tool. Sometimes I
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: think you do have to call somebody out and if
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: you're not doing it publicly, I hope you're doing it privately.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: But your team doesn't play that way. Your team plays
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: like they're disinterested at times. Your team plays certainly lackluster.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: And I know that they don't. I know that they
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: want to win. I know they have desire, and I
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: know there's effort, and I know that sometimes when you're
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: losing and nothing's coming together, it's hard to look like
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: you are really hustling your ass off. But then there's that,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: and then there's what we saw from Randy on Saturday.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: And I will defend by the way that from Randy
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: later on in the show. I don't want to use
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: that as the example. I just think there have been
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: way too many lazy at pats, lazy attempts on the
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: base paths, lazy defensive plays, and that is a reflection
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: of the manager. That to me, is the reflection of
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: we're not focused, we're not playing our best, we're not
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: even trying our hardest, And that to me is a
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: reflection of the manager. He's not getting the most out
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: of his team. And that is the bottom line. Managers
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: are judged by nothing more in modern baseball than this.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: We've given you a team. This is how good it is.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: This is our expectation. I need you to get us
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: to that expectation, if not beyond, I need you to
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: a great manager. If I've set a goal for this
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: team on paper, AI tells me is worth ninety two wins.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: This is a ninety two win team. If you're a
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: good manager, you get us ninety five. That's what you want.
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Not.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: This team should be ten games over five hundred, seven
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: games up in the American League West, and we are
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: under five hundred heading into the All Star break. The
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: roster construction is not the problem. Rob Refsnyder is not
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: the problem. The manager is not getting the most out
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: of the team. And this is too important of a season.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: There's too much at stake. It's the fiftieth anniversary. We've
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: never made the World Series. We may have a lockout
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: next year. We can't let it end by missing the
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: playoffs in a year in which the American League is
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: down like never before. So I endorse a managerial change
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: this morning. Officially, I don't think they'll do it, but
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: that's my statement on a Monday morning. This is the
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: fire Dan Wilson Show on Chuck and Buck and again,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: I don't take that lightly, but I think it's time.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: This team needs a new boss, a new voice, and
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: they need a shakeup. They need to be reminded. You
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: just can't play like garbage and not expect bad things
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: to happen. And I'd like to see it happen before
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: we play another game. Yeah till Friday.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: Okay, I think that's fair.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: That's where I'm at. I even have your solutions, which
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I'll I'll share with you a little bit later on
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: in the show. But right now, let's find out what's
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: on tap for the rest of the programming.
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: What's on Tech?
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: What's on TEP? Brought to you by Emerald Queen Casino,

• 20:27
  Speaker 1: All right, I've never had more baseball headlines ever to share.
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah that time. Yeah, Mariners finished the first half of
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: an eight to two win in Tampa Bay. We'll cover
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: that in Mariner's Morning After at six thirty, But they
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: lost five of their last six to enter the All
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Star Break, which means, as we sit here this morning,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: the Mariners are forty eight and forty nine, but believe
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: it or not, the playoffs started tomorrow, we're in. The
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Mariners would have the third and final wildcard spot in
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: the American League playoffs, one and a half games back
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: of the Texas Rangers. Huge rumor over the weekend regarding
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: the Mariners are looking to trade a starting pitcher. Most
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: people are assuming that's Luis Castillo, but that's going to
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: be highly difficult as I mapped out Friday, and I'll
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: give you more details on that later on this hour.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: The Home Run Derby is tonight. It's going to be
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: on Netflix, not your normal cable television outlet that you
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: are used to. So yes, Baseball will be streaming the
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Home Run Derby and there is a brand new format
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: and I have no idea if it's going to work
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: or be successful, but we will talk about it later
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: on in the show. The All Star Game will be
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: played tomorrow. Unfortunately, gravely unfortunately, all sorts of cancelations on
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: the roster. I mean, it's starting to turn into the
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Pro Bowl, and that's a really sad thing. I mean,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: it doesn't even look anywhere close to the original rosters
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: that were announced, especially from the pitching staffs, So we'll
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: talk about that later on in the program as well.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: The Major League Baseball Draft was held over the weekend.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Rob Chalowski of UCLA did go one to the White Sox,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: and the Mariners ended up having maybe the best power
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: hitter in the entire draft fall to them in Ace
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Reese out of Mississippi State, a third baseman by trade
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: might have to move to first base at some point
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: early in his career, but they viewed that as a
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: real steal at twenty four overall in the draft. The
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Futures Game was on Sunday the American League One. Kate
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Anderson and Ryan Sloan both pitched an inning and did
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: not give up a run. That just seems to be
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: their twenty twenty six seasons. The World Cup's going to
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: resume Final four action tomorrow at noon, and Major League
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: Baseball should think they're lucky stars they're playing that during
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: the day. Yeah, seriously, based on all those cancelations and
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: the World Cup fever, they have no chance competing against
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: the World Cup tomorrow.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's got some pretty epic matchups.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, France versus Spain tomorrow, England and Argentina will play
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: on Wednesday. Seahawks have a brand new owner. I'm sorry
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: to put this at the very end of the opening segment,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: but we are going to spend our entire seven o'clock
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: hour talking about that so v nood Koshla, which I
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: looked up the absolute correct pronunciation, and I don't know
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: if I have it, And there's a reason because there
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: were seven of them given by AI and they were all.
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: Different perfect so I have.
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: No idea how to pronounce his name, but and I
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: doubt Greg does either. But we'll talk to Greg at
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: seven oh five today, and the Huskies won series. We
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: always do it during All Star Week. We'll start today
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: with Scott Ecklan. That's right, one analyst breaking down one
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: unit of the Huskies for one entire interview, and that's
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: coming your way today at eight o'clock and throughout the week.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: So obviously a lot going on. Mariners Morning after comes
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: Next Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM, And.
• 23:58
  Speaker 6: I do like that we ended with the win. It
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: was just so yucky before that that it feels like
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: it feels like by celebrating the win, we're ignoring what
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: happened in the five games before it even though we're not.
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: It just feels like the music is ignoring what happened. Yeah, yeah,
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: does that make sense?
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Hey music? Yeah, come on now, this isn't really a
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: joyous moment.
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they'll be. This song should be like one more time.
• 24:25
  Speaker 5: We kind of have a sound of silence happening too.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a little bit, a little bit, no doubt. Mariner's
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: Morning After. It is our Mariners post game show. We
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: just do it the morning after every single Mariners game.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: A highlight, a sound bite, the preview of what's going
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: on tonight. It is Mariners Morning After. And the Mariners
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: had lost five straight games on this road trip to
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Florida Miami. Marlins swept the Ms and the Rays looked
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: like they were going to do the same thing. Then
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: on Sunday against lefty Ian Seymour, who has been hot
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: as of late. The Mariners did get on the board
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: one run in the second inning, but they had the
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: bases loaded in that second inning and it looked like
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: they were going to do that classic. We only got
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: one run out of that move, two outs. JP Crawford
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: comes to the plate, he's in the hole, but JP
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: comes through.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Little Looper and it's gonna fall for a base hit,
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: a run across Carver scores. Right behind him is Young
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: and the Mariners get a big hit with runners in
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: scoring position at a three run.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: Second and a look at the dugouts. It's just then exhale,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: good call Mariners TV. JP Crawford does come through, and
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: he didn't swing for the fences and screw himself into
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: the ground and try to hit a home run in
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: that moment. I mean, JP really didn't sting one ball yesterday,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: but he put the ball in play low and behold,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: he got three hits on a walk.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: Look what happens when you put the ball in play.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: That's who you are. And when you play that way, yeah,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: you're going to have you know, zero for fours on occasion,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: but more often, and this is what you need to
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: do to contribute to the team. JP Crawford a great
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: night for him, especially if they're going to insist he
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: hit leadoff. Gross is a hit and a walk. Hitting
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: a walk, yeah, and if you put the ball in
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: play every single at that, with the exception of the
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: walk and on the occasion strikeout, we know you're not
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: gonna every single at bat you're going to achieve that
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: you're gonna you're going to more often than not get
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: that hit and walk. That's forty percent of the time
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: on base. That's excellent for anyone, but for a leadoff hitter,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: you want them to get on base. And so I
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: thought yesterday was JP staying within himself, and lo and behold,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: he gets one seeing eye right down the first base
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: line that was barely fair, and he blooped that little
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: duck snort into left field, which was huge for where
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: the team's mindset was to not come away with one
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: run and instead get three because you simply battled, put
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: the ball in play and got a little help from
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: the baseball GUIDs.
• 27:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and that is what it's all about.
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: I don't it's you know, we've talked about how frustrating
• 27:25
  Speaker 6: it is to watch JP at times just try to
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: be somebody he's not. So yesterday was the perfect example
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: of why he should be that way.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Just be that way, Just be that way. You don't,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: don't try to be anything more because it screws you up. Yeah,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: you know, not everybody is Randy or Rose Arena.
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and you'll get home runs every once in a while.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Every once in a while. Is that that's all that
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: you should be gunning for. Yeah, not trying to hit
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: thirty because you're not capable, right. So I like what
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: I saw out of JP, particularly yesterday, and hopefully we
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: get more of that in the second half, since the
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: Mariners are insistent that he leads off and plays every day.
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: I also want to point out West and Wilson as well,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: who hit a home run. I mean that was pretty much.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I mean that was that'sh that was his last game
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: as a Mariner. You think, I mean, Julio is going
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: to be activated from the concussion list. He's the obvious
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: guy that leaves the roster. And even that, Ashley, I mean,
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: if you're just joining us. I started the show by
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: saying I'm ready to fire Dan Wilson. That's gonna be
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: kind of the theme to today's show. Even that was like,
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: you know, it's his last game and you're like giving
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: him a throwing him a bone. I here you go,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: you can playbody. We really needed a win there. Yeah,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: and we're gonna sit don can zone because we know West.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: We feel bad because Wes and Wilson's not going to
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: be on the team by Friday, and so let's let
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: him play one last game.
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: I did think at least he hit a home run,
• 29:04
  Speaker 6: so he couldn't make any base running errors.
• 29:06
  Speaker 5: You can't make an error when you don't when you
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: can just run around the bases.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you this too. He looks the part like
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: he put up that triedent, and I'm like, that guy
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: looks like he just might if he was shirtless, it
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: would look like he just came out of the sea.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: He looks like Nautilus himself.
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and then they could have poured a bucket of
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: gatorade over him and he would have been.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, straight up king Triton. Probably his last game
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: as a Mariner. But he did hit a home run
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: and Emerson Hancock left this game after just an inning
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: and two thirds. Looked like he was just on the
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: top of his game. Line drive hit back at him,
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: hit his hand, braced it on the fall, makes the play,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: says he's okay, looked okay, starts the second inning okay,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, can't find the strike zone,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: calls out the trainer. I guess his hand had swollen
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: up and he couldn't grip the ball away. He wanted
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: to take him out of the game, and Dan Wilson
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: is facing Evan and a third innings of baseball to
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: try to get through that last game of the regular season.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: But for Rare David La Slash, Davila, Spire, Rucker, Bizardo
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: and Munios got the job done and the Mariners win
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: it eight to two to salvage a game out of
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: the series and out of the road trip. Here's Dan afterwards.
• 30:21
  Speaker 7: Obviously, a great way to end the first half. You know,
• 30:25
  Speaker 7: tough road trip from beginning to end, but a good
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: way to end it. I thought it was you know,
• 30:30
  Speaker 7: you talk about a team effort from top to bottom today,
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: that's what it was. You know, with Emerson kind of
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: exiting early, you really had to rely on the bullpen
• 30:38
  Speaker 7: here for a lot of innings, and they all delivered.
• 30:41
  Speaker 7: I thought they all threw the ball extremely well and offensively.
• 30:46
  Speaker 7: You know, things turned around a little bit today and
• 30:47
  Speaker 7: we were able to get the big hit, able to
• 30:49
  Speaker 7: put some traffic on the bases and drive him in.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: Obviously, you know.
• 30:54
  Speaker 7: Randy's homer, you know, really kind of put an exclamation
• 30:57
  Speaker 7: mark on it and gave us the lead that we needed.
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: But you know, again continue to add on late, but
• 31:02
  Speaker 7: you know, just really good at bats. I thought we
• 31:05
  Speaker 7: took a really good approach off Seymour and and a
• 31:08
  Speaker 7: day that you know we can build on for sure.
• 31:11
  Speaker 7: You know this this was a tough road trip, but
• 31:14
  Speaker 7: I feel like in a lot of ways we were
• 31:16
  Speaker 7: we were in a lot of these games until the
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: end and and uh, they kept fighting. And that's the
• 31:20
  Speaker 7: fight we'll continue to see here in the second half half.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: The teams are going to go into the break on
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: a lost but for you guys just to get a
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: win out of this and go into the break on
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: a win and play well as well, I'm important to.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's huge.
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: You know, this was you know, a day that's it's
• 31:35
  Speaker 7: always a little tricky, but you know, our guys continued
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: to push and they understood how important it was to
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: continue to fight today, and they went out there and
• 31:45
  Speaker 7: they did it.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: Dan Wilson, after an eight to win, should point out
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: Randy Rose Arena hit his eleventh home run, three run shot.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: That was a big part of the game as well. Uh,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: and it is an eight to win, I would also say,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: I mean the argument is, well, they were going against
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: the lefty and so you wanted to put some right
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: e's in the lineup. Well, it's a bad argument because
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: Ian Seymour has reverse splits. Lefties actually do better than
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: him than righty's against him. So there really wasn't even
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: any strategic advantage to play on West and Wilson worked
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: out hit a home run, contributed to the game. And yes,
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: now as a human being, like, I'm glad you got
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: to hit a home run your last game as a Maria.
• 32:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, a good feeling.
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, but then again, like where is that muscle
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: that hey, we need to win? Yeah, and that individual
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: move didn't really suggest that that was part of the.
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: Equation for I would get that, And I think in
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: the day was not set up for us to get
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: a win obviously, with Hancock going out and Dan having
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: to come up with seven and a half innings of
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: bullpen management.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. Well, fortunately you didn't have to worry about
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: the next day or next week, so you got to
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: use everybody. You didn't have to like play those mind
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: games of like well what if we need them tomorrow? Yeah,
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: so you just had to use them. You had seven
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: and a half innings to go and you had to
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: use them all and you end up with an eight
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: to two victory. Baseball can be weird. So no game today,
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: won't be another one until Friday for the Mariners, and
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: so we turn things over to All Star festivities. The
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: Home Run Derby will be held tonight. There is not
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: a Mariner participating in it. We will talk about it
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: a little bit later on in the show. Also in
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: headlines will tell you who exactly is participating in the
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: Home Run Derby. But it's gonna be on Netflix this year,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: which might throw some of you for a loop. It
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: certainly is me. I don't even know if sports bars
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: even carry Netflix, so I don't even know I'm even
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: gonna watch it because I'm not going to re up
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: on Netflix just to watch the Home Run Derby.
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I have no clue where, yeah, yeah, where places
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: show or what things they have, although I guess there's
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: more sports these days on Netflix, so maybe they've realized
• 33:59
  Speaker 6: it's smart to have it.
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I would think that most places wouldn't.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would think so, I don't think. I don't
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: think many you know, many bars are have a movie night? Yeah?
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: Probably not?
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: Yeah, And you're really only getting it what for Christmas
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: football and then apparently the All Star game.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: Hey, come to a wooden Greek kitchen. It's the Crown
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: Night on next on Netflix. That'd be great, all right?
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: Coming up next on the program, I've got a SUP
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: with You question today to go with our theme on
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: this Monday. Also the latest on those Luis Castillo rumors.
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: We're gonna do all football and the seven o'clock hour,
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: So I'm just committing to an all baseball hour here
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: at six o'clock on Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: Don't take it lightly at all, given the platform that
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: I'm pleased to have here as a sports talk show
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: host on KJR. But I think that this team needs
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: a new manager. I stated it in our first segment
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: here this this morning and stated it rather boldly supported it,
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: and we'll continue to talk about it throughout the course
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: of the week or until something happens, which I don't
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: think it will happen. But I do want to hear
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: from you, and so SUP with You Sup is something
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: we do. We take questions from you and then SUCK
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: with You is where I ask you a question and
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: want to hear your feedback, either on the text line,
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: on YouTube on our channel, or you can use that talkback.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: I'd really like for you to use the talkback.
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: That'd be fun.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: I'd like for you to have like thirty seconds to
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: tell me why Dan should keep his job. Okay, because
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: I want him to be defended today, I'm obviously making
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: the statement that I think it's time for him to go.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: I don't think Ashley's too far off. I'm going to
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: get her thoughts here in two seconds. But I do
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: want to hear the other side of it. I do
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: want to hear the listener that wants to defend Dan.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: So if you want to use the talkback at night
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: three three KJR dot com gives you thirty seconds, we'll
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: replace some of those for you coming up in our
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: eight o'clock hour today. Where are you at with this?
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: I mean I wanted to be careful in my presentation
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: this morning, so I burned up all the time. But
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: you with me on this or are you wanting to
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: give him more time?
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: I just can't defend him getting more time. That's the problem.
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: I don't want somebody to lose their job. I don't
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: want and I don't like to say I think you
• 36:28
  Speaker 6: should be fired. Some people will say, oh, well, he's fine.
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: His family will be fine. It's not because I'm worried
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: that he's not gonna have any money.
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: I just don't want.
• 36:35
  Speaker 6: I don't like to tell people how to do their job,
• 36:39
  Speaker 6: or that they do or don't deserve it. But by
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: all the things that we've seen in the first half,
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: more than half of the season, I just have a
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: hard time defending why he's good at it.
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: And that's where it's hard.
• 36:54
  Speaker 6: So as much as I don't want to say, yes,
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: he deserves to be fired, I just can't come up
• 36:59
  Speaker 6: with any reason why he should continue.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, his job is to manage the players
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: and to get the most out of them, and he's
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: not going to hit on all of them. But like
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: the pitching staff, I think I mean, did he deserve
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: some credit for the pitching staff, but a lot of
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: that goes to Woodworth as well, where offensively, the only
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: guy that we're really getting more than we thought we
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: were going to get this year is Randy a Rose Arena.
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: And yet he's the guy everyone wanted fired Saturday because
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: we want somebody fired after every loss, obviously, because he's
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: the attitude that is the problem that's permeating, and this
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: he represents why this team isn't winning. This why this
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: team sometimes looks listless and like it doesn't care. It's Randy,
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: And so how do you even balance those two things?
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: Like a ros Arena is the one guy over performing
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: his expectations and yet might be the guy that you
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: have the most difficulty with playing team baseball.
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but I mean again, you can't.
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: You can't fault Randy for what he's done this this
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: first part of the season. He has been great, and
• 38:09
  Speaker 6: he has been the one bright spot consistently on this team.
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: And I just think, and I.
• 38:16
  Speaker 6: Think we're probably gonna hear from the listeners the same
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: way you know you're saying, give us a talkback to
• 38:21
  Speaker 6: defend why he should keep his job. I think people
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: are gonna have a very hard time coming up with
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: reasons why he should keep it.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: Well, that's why I asked for the other side, because
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: I think if I ask for I get a lot
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: more on those Oh yeah, on ours.
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: There's a lot of people that are anti dam lost, right.
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: So that's why I do want the voices of those
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: that have good, sound reasons for why he should stay.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: I know what I'm going to get. I already know
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: what I'm going to get and I'm going to disagree
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: with it, but I do want to hear from you.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: I do want to hear from you. So we will
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: take your talkbacks well to read some of your texts
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: a little bit later on. But we've got a very
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: busy show today, very busy show that includes say new
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: owner for the Seahawks. So I spent the entire six
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: o'clock hour talking Mariners baseball and making a rather bold
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: statement here this morning. To start our week and our
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: next hour, we're going to talk nothing but football. We'll
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: hear from Greg Bell, will react to what he has
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: to say about Vinad Koshla, and we'll close it out
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: with some football in our seven o'clock hour as well,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: plus your headlines at the top of the hour. Sports
