• 2:23
  Speaker 3: wished I was on a mountaintop somewhere where it was
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: a little bit cooler, because it got it got really
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: warm there. It did it got like like ninety Yeah,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: me and my very pasty children, we got red.
• 2:36
  Speaker 8: It look very colorful.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: We had a good color.
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 2:39
  Speaker 7: I don't think you look red. I think you look
• 2:40
  Speaker 7: like you it's the middle of summer, and I'm jealous.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, thank you. We we handled it. Okay, I
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: I found an umbrella. Well, Bear got more son than
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: he's ever gotten before. H not to the bad parties,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: not peeling or blistering or anything, but yeah, we got
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: some son.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Kate's belly I don't know.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: If it's seen sun since two Okay, it got really red. Yeah,
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: so yeah, we all kind of got like, who here
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: we go.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: But it was good. It was great.
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: A lot of swimming and a lot of water slides
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: and took some baseball in and it was good, good.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Very good.
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: That's what it's all about. You had a little rest our,
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: little quality time. Those most deer very good.
• 3:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: I was seeing though, you know, just watching various games
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: that were down there that I guess records for most
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: ninety plus degree days this early.
• 3:36
  Speaker 8: In the year February.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean.
• 3:39
  Speaker 6: I lived there for fifteen years without failed. Pacific Northwesterners
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: think that they would love to move there, and I
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: don't know if I've met any of them they could.
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: I mean, you're right, like ninety four they can't handle it.
• 3:52
  Speaker 6: I'm like it get's gonna get twenty five degrees hotter
• 3:55
  Speaker 6: than that before the summer comes to a close. So
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: you know, you know, be care be careful what you
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: wish for where you think there's greener grass, because yeah,
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: in the direct sun, eighty four degrees in Arizona, even
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: that'll get you much less ninety four, much less one
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: hundred and four, much less one hundred and fourteen. So
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: you know what, I've been here now for eleven years,
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: kind of like it up here.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I had enough of the desert life.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's there's certain times, you know, and I were
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: talking about what we were down there, certain times where
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: it's like, you know, nine o'clock at night and it's
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: still like seventy eight degrees you know, in the winter
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: or something. You're like, okay, now this I understand. But yeah,
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: when it's just blistering, like you can feel the flickers
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: of flames from the sun like hitting me in the face, Like, ah,
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: what the hell is that?
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: It's too much?
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: It's too much, And I know I got back here
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: and I put on some overalls and just stood outside
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: in the brisk air for a couple of days, or
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: a couple of minutes.
• 4:54
  Speaker 8: On couple days. He's just.

  Speaker 3: I planted about one hundred thousand wild flower seeds.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Yes, the bank of the river. Nobody did one by one.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Nobody can that many flower seeds without loving their heart.
• 6:05

  Speaker 3: love in my heart.
• 6:10

  Speaker 3: And now I got to wake up and see you.

• 6:50
  Speaker 8: back and.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Actually you guys, see you guys.
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: I'd like to see it like there is something to
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: the routine, like I mean as much fun. Because I
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: had a great time at the super Bowl with all
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: of you jackasses and down at Radio Row and getting
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: ready for the super Bowl and doing the shows and
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: uh and and.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Everything gets messed up a little bit, but it was great.
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: I had a great time. I had a great time
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: at spring training. To do every single year, but there
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: is something to like that flight home.
• 7:17
  Speaker 9: We're like, I just want to go back to the routine.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I need some you know, repetition in my life right
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: now because I'm tired.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm really tired. Yeah, I'm with you on that.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: The thing I was mostly for you is my own bed.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: Two weeks of the comfort in sweets. I don't know
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: about that name so much, not that comfort.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: And then the Great Wolf Lodge, great place, kids love it.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: They're not known for comfortable, but comfortable beds either. It's
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: not the West and I'll just take you.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: So two weeks. So when I got back on my bed,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I'm home, honey, I'm home. Well,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: welcome back, thank you, welcome back. Yeah, yeah, good to
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: be back.
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: And you got to Yeah, you did get the good color.
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: You're not here peeling and blistering. You got just the
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: mouth of the sudde You can tell you were on
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: a trip. And yet you're not miserable because you forced
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: being out.
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: In the suner No, No, I did not. I mean
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: I did force you to be out in the sun.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: But then I found a shade. Also, because I've been
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: this pasty ginger for fifty years now, I understand.
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, congratulations on your fiftieth year being thank.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: You very much.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: I like to thank my mom and my dad and
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: all the little people help get me here.
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: Not a lot of people may get fifty years right
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: around thirty five they're like, I'm going to be a brunette.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, a lot of people do that. Yeah.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Well mine's trying to change to white. So I'm still
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: going to claim ginger though.
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: Well, you know, I mean it was not your typical
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: sports weekend. As you know, we sit here on a Monday.
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: Normally we have a story that is the story to
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: recap from Sunday as our top sports story of the
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: day to launch into our conversations. Not really that kind
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: of weekend, though, and so this is sort of a
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: look ahead kind of week because we are going to
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: be counting down the days till NFL free agency, And
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: the top story right now here in Seattle is just
• 9:18
  Speaker 6: which of the Seattle Seahawks free agents a Super Bowl
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: championship team they're going to be able to hold on
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: to between now and you know, when the tampering period ends,
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: when the free agency period ends, and so really today
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: we start that, we start that countdown toward NFL free agency.
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: The tampering period starts one week from today, and then
• 9:42
  Speaker 6: almost everything will be done by the time free agency
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: begins on Wednesday. That's kind of the way it works.
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: And so we'll get you started. We'll get it going
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: here this morning.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: And of the.
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: Six major free agents that the Seahawks have, of course,
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: the name that most prominently comes of mine that we've
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: been discussing for a month or so, is ken Walker,
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: the starting running back the Super Bowl MVP, and I
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: would just start the conversations this week, because we're going
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: to talk a lot about it today and certainly throughout
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: the course of the week with our various experts, including
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: the latest from Craig Bell coming up on the show.
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: But where are you feeling about whether or not ken
• 10:24
  Speaker 6: Walker is going to be a Seahawk for another day
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: beyond free agency? Good feeling about it, bad feeling about it,
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: just straddling the fence. Where do you sit with whether
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: or not ken Walker will still be a Seahawk at.
• 10:37
  Speaker 9: The end of all this.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: I feel good, But I think that's not probably that's
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: probably not rooted in like much science or really anything
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: of substance. It's like, I feel good because I think
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: he wants to be a Sea Hawk. But I think
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: that the Seahawks are going to basically set a put
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: a number out there. I would be willing to bet
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: they've already put numbers out there, And the fact that
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: we haven't heard anything yet about him re up and
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: means that they're not in agreement. And so to me
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: it's kind of I feel good that that ken Walker
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: wants to be here. I'm not really sure if I
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: should feel as confident about it simply because I think
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: the Seahawks are going to put a number where they
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: feel he's worth because of what they could maybe look
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: for on the other out there on the free agent market.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: As far as other running backs are possibly even in
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: the draft, well.
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: I would just say, I mean, I don't know if
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: we need to read in so that it's not done,
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: because as far as I can tell, when these negotiations
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: take place, I mean, I mean, the first strategy is
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: to wait till the eleven o'clock hour. We waited this long,
• 11:47
  Speaker 6: You've had four years to do this. I don't know
• 11:50
  Speaker 6: how serious the negotiation gets. To keep him until you
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: get closer to a deadline. That's just seems to be
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: the way that the sports world operates, and the deadline
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: will be Sunday, I suppose, because Monday the tampering period opens,
• 12:06
  Speaker 6: and I'm sure people are already tampering.
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: But I don't read too much into the fact that he's.
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: Not not signed based on a negotiation may not be
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: going the right way, but I do believe that that
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: it's certainly up in the air right now. I don't
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: know if I feel strongly one way or the other.
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: I mean, I'll say this, the national audience seems to
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: think he's gone, and I don't know if that's them
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: rooting for it, because we do sort of like as
• 12:37
  Speaker 6: sports fans, if we don't have an investment in the
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: actual team or player, we just I mean, people just
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: like seeing good players wear different uniforms.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: It's just a it's just part of the beast. I
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: don't know why that.
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: I mean, I've been like that since I was a
• 12:51
  Speaker 6: kid myself, So I don't know if people just like
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: the idea more of somebody changing hands. But you can't
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: open an article about Ken wall Talker without it suggesting
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: that it feels like he's leaving Seattle, and so, I mean,
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: I've moved a little bit toward the middle on this.
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: I was sort of sure that he was going to
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: be gone. I moved a little bit toward the middle
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: since last weeks. You and I spoke about it, Ashley
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: and I spoke about it last week, and so I'm
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: a little bit on the north side of thinking he's
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: going to be gone versus going to be staying here.
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: But I'm a lot closer to fifty to fifty than
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: I was when this process started. And that basically has
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: everything to do with if not him, who Because the
• 13:39
  Speaker 6: options I don't really love and I'm not sure the
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: Seahawks would love at this point, but they're going to
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: set their price. Ken Walker's going to accept it, and
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: I think he's going to get more than what he
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: would have gotten a month ago or two months ago
• 13:54
  Speaker 6: had they had to come to a deal.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: But I don't know.
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: It seems to me like the free that the agent's
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: gonna drive this bus a little bit, and if he's
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: driving the bus, then he's going to have him test
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: the free agent market.
• 14:07
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm definitely leaning towards him staying and for that
• 14:10
  Speaker 7: exact reason though, of who else are they going to
• 14:13
  Speaker 7: get that they're going to be satisfied with, especially again
• 14:16
  Speaker 7: with the uncertainty of when Zach Charbonnay will be back.
• 14:19
  Speaker 7: I do think the agent's gonna make, as you put
• 14:23
  Speaker 7: last week, the Seahawks get uncomfortable. They're going to feel
• 14:25
  Speaker 7: a little uncomfortable with having to pay him more. But
• 14:28
  Speaker 7: I still think it's going to be around that eleven
• 14:30
  Speaker 7: or twelve ten or twelve million dollars range that they're
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: going to give him. I think that he's going to stay,
• 14:35
  Speaker 7: and it's it's going to be mostly because he's the
• 14:38
  Speaker 7: best option they have.
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I feel a lot better about him staying
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: than I did, but I do feel like I think
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: there's a better chance that he's leaving, and it's because
• 14:50
  Speaker 6: of the agent's desire to test free agency. I think
• 14:54
  Speaker 6: the agent's like, hey, there's no there's no getting sentimental here, Ken.
• 14:58
  Speaker 6: They had four years to make sure that you felt
• 15:00
  Speaker 6: loved and a part of the Seahawks. It's not it's
• 15:03
  Speaker 6: not our fault that you played your best football right
• 15:07
  Speaker 6: at the perfect amount of time to enter free agency.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: So we're not gonna get sentimental on this.
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: They're gonna give us what we want, or we're gonna
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: go test the free agent market.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: My guess is that's where they would go.
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: But I feel Bucky that there's a lot better offer
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: that they're going to get on their table now from
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: the Seahawks that could change things, that could draw him
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: back into the nest.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, it's so weird.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, because I do think that the running back
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: market has rebounded to some degree. You know, I think
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: that it's not this, oh, well, there are a dime
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: a dozen, you don't pay him because they're definitely gonna
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: get hurt. I think that it's it's recovered from that sum,
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: but not fully and rightfully, because they're not. They do
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: take a crazy amount of punishment, and so to invest
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: a long term amount of big time money it is
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: not very smart. And so it's something where I think
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: the running backs need to if they don't sign you
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: up and give you know, when you have one year
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: left on your contract, if they let you get to
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: this point, then you should go test the free agent mark.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: You should see if there's one team out there that
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: just flat out has loved you and then watched you
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: run to a super Bowl last year.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: And said, oh thank god they didn't sign.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: Him all give him that extra year of guaranteed money
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: right like that wherever it is. If you're going to
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: sign for a four year deal and maybe it's only
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: going to be an average of thirteen million dollars a year,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: but you get one team out there will give you
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: an extra year of that being guaranteed somewhere, then he
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: has to do that. That's where I mean I feel
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: like because there still is the opportunity if the Seahawks
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: start hearing that there's teams out there that are wanting
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: to wanting to take him. The fact that they could
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: still say we'll go one year and run this thing
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: back again to the franchise tag. That's the straw that's
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: breaking the camel's back. Because I'm right in the middle,
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: I can see how he would be like him and
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: his agent, we're gonna go get money. You didn't sign
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: us up when you had the opportunity. You've had four
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: years to do this. We're gonna go get the best
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: price we can possibly get. On the flip side of it,
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: they could say, no, you're not franchise taking.
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: I mean, the Jets are tagging Breesehall. It's fourteen and
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: a half, but it's only a one year commitment. I
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: mean I could, I could actually, I think I can
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: see a world where that makes sense. I don't know
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: if I see a world that where John does that,
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: and you know it would sometimes it could just buy
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: you time or leverage over a player to agree more
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: to the deal that you want.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Maybe he would do that.
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: Maybe that's something that he would try to try to
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: keep Ken Walker in a Seahawk uniform and drive him
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: more toward the price that they want to agree to
• 17:47
  Speaker 6: long term. But we shall see that tag. I don't
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: know why it does, but it pisses players off. It
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: does pretty much like it eliminates like whether or not
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: they're going to sign a long term with you. But
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: it's one of the factors in this conversation, There's no
• 18:03
  Speaker 6: question about it, and we are going to discuss it
• 18:05
  Speaker 6: a lot on today's radio program. Let's find out what
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: else is on tap for the show today.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: What's on tech?
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: What's on tech? Well, the pajama party is over.
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: It concluded four days of workouts, an entire week of evaluation, analysis,
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: investigation in Indianapolis, and so we've got a few of
• 18:26
  Speaker 6: the results that will pass along to you just in
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: case you needed me to be your eyes and ears
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: as father draft miss on the NFL Combine.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: We'll talk about that later on in the show.
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: NFL free agency begins next Wednesday, but the tampering period
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: that starts Monday, and we know, we all know.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: It's about tampering this time of the year.
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: Greg Bell's going to join us today at seven o
• 18:48
  Speaker 6: five to discuss it. College hoops final week of the
• 18:52
  Speaker 6: regular season is here. Selection Sunday is now less than
• 18:56
  Speaker 6: two weeks away. It'll be March fifteenth on Saturday. Lost
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: to Wisconsin. But Debtla Shremp was the real story. He
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: was honored, he had his number retired. Turns out he
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: accepted it. Yeah, turns out he didn't come into the
• 19:08
  Speaker 6: game and then refuse Yeah I don't really want that.
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah from the rafters. Good for him, don't insult me
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: and then flip the bird to the crowd and walk away.
• 19:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, yeah, he's too nice. We got to do that.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 19:26
  Speaker 6: USC cut its leading score uh yesterday because for some
• 19:31
  Speaker 6: reason he thought it was okay to take himself out
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: of a game.
• 19:36
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: Why wouldn't you claim that it was an injury? Not
• 19:39
  Speaker 6: let the training staff look at him? Uh, go back
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: into the locker room, come out in full uniform and
• 19:45
  Speaker 6: go sit with his friends and family in the stands.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah he got cut. Yeah, he'll talk about that.
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: Cracking Hurricanes tonight at seven o'clock. Cracking did win over
• 19:56
  Speaker 6: the weekend. So those two ugly losses, they at least
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: rebounded over the weekend against the Canucks and got back
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: on the winning track.
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: They're a weird team to figure out. I'll tell you that.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, if that's what their goal was this year,
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: we're going to be the weirdest team to try to
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: figure out success. You pulled it off.
• 20:16
  Speaker 8: Way to go, Way to go.
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: Team, And so we'll talk a little bit about that.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: Sounders lost their first match of the season two to
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: one to Real Salt Lake on Saturday, so they are
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: one and one to start the year, and all sorts
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: of Mariners news to discuss here today. Bryce Miller has
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: been sat down. He's got a little bit of a
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: tweak to his side. They're saying it is just extra
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: extra precaution at this time of the year, so nothing.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: To worry about.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: But sometimes you hear that and there's something to worry,
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: So we'll worry. Kate Anderson made his debut on Saturday,
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: gave up a couple runs in his inning, but he
• 20:56
  Speaker 6: did strike out the side. And then Ryan Sloan worked
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: a perfect one three inning on Sunday. So the buzz
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: around Ryan Sloan continues. So we got a few things
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: to discuss f Marin or spring training. But the big
• 21:08
  Speaker 6: story from spring training right now is that our best
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: players are leaving the team for a little while. We'll
• 21:15
  Speaker 6: discuss whether or not we're excited about the WBC Sports
• 21:19
  Speaker 6: Radio ninety three point three kJ r.
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: F M.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Based off one byte the cracket two fits done here.
• 21:29
  Speaker 10: Stevenson downs it front.
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: The Captain's Cut two and the Seattle cracket on one
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: with eight O four to.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: Play at the third.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: Ball, did they need that win? Oh boy? Do they
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: need that win?
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: Everet FETs you with your MiG delivery of the game
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: last night's top call from the Crack and Audio Network,
• 22:00
  Speaker 6: brought to you by McDonald's Ordering the Food you Crave
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: with McDelivery as a whole new way to love McDonald's.
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: Ordered directly from the McDonald's app and select McDelivery today
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: and start earning points for free food. See app for details.
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: You know it's kind of funny about the power of
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: advertising though. So I'm speaking of McDonald's. So I'm finally
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: getting around to watching that TV show Succession, and everybody's
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: right that told me that I would like it.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: I do like it.
• 22:26
  Speaker 6: I don't know if I love it, but I do
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: really really like it. You'll end up loving it, is
• 22:30
  Speaker 6: that right?
• 22:31
  Speaker 10: All right?
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: Don't tell me anything because I'm in the middle of
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: season number three, so I'm right there at the sweet spot.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah dies remember.
• 22:39
  Speaker 6: But anyway, Brian Cox is the lead actor in it,
• 22:43
  Speaker 6: and he doesn't come across as like being exactly the
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: most fit guy in the world. And every time he talks,
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: I just hear him doing his McDonald's ass, and every
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: time that he has like a health episode, I'm like, well,
• 22:58
  Speaker 6: you're eating too much McDonald's.
• 22:59
  Speaker 8: Man, I know what the problem is off sandwiches.
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: I mean, I know it's delicious, but yeah, I mean,
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: if you're you're having some difficulty and moderation, bud, it
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: looks like you got a nugget belly there.
• 23:11
  Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe about getting us McDonald sandwiches this morning, because
• 23:15
  Speaker 7: they're a dollar on the app today. They're rewarding people
• 23:19
  Speaker 7: doll dollar breakfast sammis, Yeah.
• 23:21
  Speaker 8: See, yeah, you're right, it doesn't work.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: It's power advertising.
• 23:25
  Speaker 8: I've been thinking about it for two days. Should I
• 23:26
  Speaker 8: get breakfast sandwiches on Monday?
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Binge?
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: Watch two and a half seasons of Succession, and I
• 23:31
  Speaker 6: can't go more than three minutes without thinking about Brian
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: Cox eating a big mac. All right, well, good morning
• 23:38
  Speaker 6: to you. We roll into our second hour here on
• 23:40
  Speaker 6: this Monday. Bucki's back, Ashley's here. My name is Chuck Powell.
• 23:44
  Speaker 6: It's time for your headlines, brought to you by Frost
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: Brewed Cores, Light Shoes, Chill. NFL combine came to a
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: close over the weekend.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm many more we're going to get
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: of them. I really don't.
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: Really feels like the NFL's thinking about different ways of
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: evaluating talent.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: That this may be just unnecessary at this point.
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: But nonetheless, certainly it was an event and certainly the
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: NFL network went all out to cover it. We'll talk
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: a little bit about it coming up on the show.
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: And it is the start you start thinking about draft
• 24:18
  Speaker 6: miss At this point you probably did have to start
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: making arrangements, you know, getting family into town for Draftmas
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: and things.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Of that nature. We got to do that.
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, sometimes you need that alarm bell to go off.
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: And that's what the NFL combine is for. NFL free
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: agency is going to begin next Wednesday. Of course, the
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: tampering period is what it's all about. That starts on Monday,
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: so two full days of tampering, that's right.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: The NFL will be on its period between Monday and Tuesday,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: and then they're going to get their tamp on from
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: that point forward.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: College basketball, final week of the regular season selection Sunday
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: is coming up in thirteen days.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: The mad is here.
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: We are in the month of March after all, and
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: the Kraken as we mentioned with the highlight from Everett,
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: they did get a win they needed it over the
• 25:10
  Speaker 6: Vancouver Canucks on Saturday, five to one, So after losing
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: their first two games of the resumption to the season
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: following the Olympic break, they do get a win and
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: hopefully that puts them on the right course. There'll be
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: an action tonight at home against the Carolina Hurricanes at
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: seven o'clock. Sounders are one and one on the young season.
• 25:31
  Speaker 6: They lost their first match of the year to Real
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: Salt Lake on Saturday, so to won the final there
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: and Mariners spring training. The players participating in the WBC
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: have left for the WBC. The tournament will begin in
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: part on Wednesday. I don't believe the US plays until
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: Friday against Brazil, but there will be a games starting
• 25:55
  Speaker 6: tomorrow where it'll be I think the US.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Stakes on the Giants. Yeah, and on Wednesday they take
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: on the Rockies, the poor Rockies. They have to face
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Team USA and so yes, they'll start playing some like
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: exhibition games for the exhibition.
• 26:11
  Speaker 7: Tournament, Like, we don't need to add extras, extra things
• 26:14
  Speaker 7: story about.
• 26:15
  Speaker 8: Yeah, just play the games.
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: The count But the actual WBC games they do start
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: in a small form on Wednesday. All right, let's talk
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: some football with Greg Bell, our Seahawks insider.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: With the Bell tolls.
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: It must be seven o'clock and time for twelfth Man
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: News with Greg Bell, brought to you by Copola Diamond
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: Collection Prosecco, Chris Sparkling with Bright Fruit Flavors to make
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: every toast shine Game Day bubbles only with Coppola Diamond Prosecco.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: Now with twelk Man News, here's Greg Bell with Chuck
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: and Budd.
• 26:52
  Speaker 6: Well, are you home yet? Adventurer are you still out
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: on the road.
• 26:57
  Speaker 10: Yes, I am home. I ever mention that we live
• 26:59
  Speaker 10: at waye from everywhere.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: Ye brought that up in the past maybe once.
• 27:05
  Speaker 10: Yeah, back from Detroit Saturday night?
• 27:07
  Speaker 9: Okay, all right?
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: And yeah, Bucky said that the best thing about getting
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: home was being back in his bed.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Was it nice to be back in your bed.
• 27:15
  Speaker 10: Greg, Yeah, I think I feel like I've slept in
• 27:17
  Speaker 10: my own bed for like three nights.
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: The whole month of February suggests good. Yeah, you guys do.
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: That's right.
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: Well, we get ready for free agency that will start
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: on Monday. The tampering period will begin, and obviously the
• 27:37
  Speaker 6: Seahawks have a few guys that could be made vulnerable.
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: Do you have an idea as to whether or not
• 27:43
  Speaker 6: any deal is close or if John can hammer out
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: any deals with these six big free agents before Monday?
• 27:53
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I don't think they're going to go for six.
• 27:55
  Speaker 10: I get the sense that Rashid Shahid maybe the first
• 27:58
  Speaker 10: to re sign, as I told you, and I've gone
• 28:02
  Speaker 10: back and forth with about Kenneth Walker. The closer, excuse me,
• 28:06
  Speaker 10: he gets to the March ninth date when he can
• 28:09
  Speaker 10: start negotiating with other teams. The more likely he's going
• 28:13
  Speaker 10: to leave. And when the Super Bowl MVP running back
• 28:17
  Speaker 10: twenty five years old goes on the open market, it's
• 28:19
  Speaker 10: a little bit like the say kuon Barkley. He won't
• 28:20
  Speaker 10: command as much money or contract that Barkley did, but
• 28:24
  Speaker 10: the attention and they'll be suitors. Put it that way,
• 28:29
  Speaker 10: and suitors will drive up the price, probably beyond what
• 28:32
  Speaker 10: the Seahawks have been slotted to pay the whole time.
• 28:35
  Speaker 10: And we've mentioned how Charboney's injury has changed that, and
• 28:38
  Speaker 10: certainly Walker's breakout during the playoffs changed his value to skyrocketing,
• 28:44
  Speaker 10: and that has seemed to maybe go out of control
• 28:47
  Speaker 10: of what the Seahawks want to pay. Fans see that
• 28:50
  Speaker 10: they've got. We all see nuns just pick fans. But
• 28:53
  Speaker 10: we all see that they have sixty plus million dollars
• 28:55
  Speaker 10: in salary cap space. The NFL set the salary capital
• 28:58
  Speaker 10: three hundred and one million.
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: And we see sixty million.
• 29:02
  Speaker 10: We said, okay, they should be able to for Walker
• 29:04
  Speaker 10: and Woolen and Bryant and Seaheed and all of them.
• 29:09
  Speaker 10: Let's not forget that Jackson Smith and Jigba and Devin
• 29:11
  Speaker 10: Witherspoon are going to get paid and they're going to
• 29:13
  Speaker 10: get paid this summer. I wrote it to the News
• 29:15
  Speaker 10: Tribune yesterday. When I asked John Schneider about that, we
• 29:20
  Speaker 10: included in the bringing Back Your Own free Agents conversation
• 29:24
  Speaker 10: off the podium at the Combine. We also asked him
• 29:26
  Speaker 10: about Smith and Jigba Wetherspoon. He said, yeah, we've been
• 29:29
  Speaker 10: planning for this meeting that they're going to get paid
• 29:33
  Speaker 10: in the usual order of the Seahawks paying their foundation
• 29:36
  Speaker 10: players going into their final year of their contracts, which
• 29:40
  Speaker 10: Smith and Jigba and Wierspoon Bufar. So there's a nice
• 29:44
  Speaker 10: chunk of that salary cap space they're going to go
• 29:46
  Speaker 10: to re signing and extending those two guys. Now, they'll
• 29:49
  Speaker 10: restructure the way they always do, with better cap numbers
• 29:53
  Speaker 10: early and very little guaranteed money later and all of that.
• 29:58
  Speaker 10: But still it's not like, let's just take sixty million
• 30:01
  Speaker 10: every side six guys.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: No, obviously it's not that easy.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: But there's way, the math, the way in which they
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: do it, and they will make more signing bonus because
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: then that kicks back this and the cap hit and
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: all that kind of stuff. They figure out ways to
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: do it. I just don't know for sure. I mean,
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: to me, the straw that breaks the camels back on
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: whether or not they go with Ken Walker or not.
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: I understand how other teams are going to get involved
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: if they allow it to get to that tampering period,
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: and then he's going to take whatever whoever gives him
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: the most money. But the idea to me is, you know,
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: I would just they don't have anything. I mean, it's
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: not like Zach Charmon is healthy and you're like, well,
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: we like the way that he ran, so you don't
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: really have a backup plan at this point in time.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: So do you think there's even our possibility that they
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: would maybe try to slap the franchise tag on him.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: I know that's not one where you get to spread
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: out over years and whatnot that, but it's a one
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: year gig and maybe that gives you more time to
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: work out some sort of long term deal.
• 30:57
  Speaker 10: Sure that's possible, but that takes up almost the fourth
• 31:00
  Speaker 10: of your cap space. That's fourteen point five million right.
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: Off the top.
• 31:04
  Speaker 10: This franchise tag number four a running back for twenty
• 31:08
  Speaker 10: twenty six, and if they wanted to spend that on Walker,
• 31:11
  Speaker 10: they would sign them to a three year deal. It
• 31:13
  Speaker 10: would have far better cap numbers for this year than
• 31:15
  Speaker 10: fourteen and a half million. You'd spread the signing bonus
• 31:18
  Speaker 10: across and maybe it's six or seven or eight million
• 31:20
  Speaker 10: against the cap. This year, they're going to restructure some deals.
• 31:24
  Speaker 10: They will restructure probably Hunter Williams and maybe de Marcus
• 31:27
  Speaker 10: Lawrence and create more upfront cash for them and a
• 31:30
  Speaker 10: better cap number this year and kick a cand down
• 31:33
  Speaker 10: the road a.
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: Year or two.
• 31:35
  Speaker 10: There are options to go lower across the rosters of
• 31:37
  Speaker 10: existing contracts through next year and the year after that.
• 31:40
  Speaker 10: They can do that with to create more space.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: And they're right.
• 31:43
  Speaker 10: The NFL teams they hire guys who are experts in this,
• 31:48
  Speaker 10: and Mike mccon or Josh Snyder has a couple in
• 31:51
  Speaker 10: his house that he counts on to do the math
• 31:53
  Speaker 10: and get the numbers to work if they want guys
• 31:55
  Speaker 10: to do it. The running back situation, I hear you,
• 32:00
  Speaker 10: and believe me, it would be odd to say the
• 32:03
  Speaker 10: least that the Super Bowl MVP walks out the door.
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: Well, the heir apparent.
• 32:07
  Speaker 10: Number one A, the job share guy may not be
• 32:10
  Speaker 10: on the field till October November if then, but David
• 32:14
  Speaker 10: Dallas for before I mean Chris Carson abruptly retired, they
• 32:18
  Speaker 10: didn't have an air They go sign, They go draft
• 32:21
  Speaker 10: Kenneth Walker, who nobody knew what would be like in
• 32:23
  Speaker 10: the NFL after having played at Wake Forest in Michigan State.
• 32:28
  Speaker 10: They gave Thomas Rawls the head job one time as
• 32:30
  Speaker 10: an undrafted rookie a few years ago when Marshawn Lynch retired.
• 32:34
  Speaker 10: Who was going to be the next guy? The NFL
• 32:37
  Speaker 10: answered John Schneider. Trend is to get younger and cheaper
• 32:40
  Speaker 10: at running back because of how injured the position is
• 32:44
  Speaker 10: and how all of a sudden the guy's career could
• 32:46
  Speaker 10: be over. And the calculus they tend to do Seahawks
• 32:51
  Speaker 10: and the NFL included is rather than over spend on
• 32:54
  Speaker 10: a running back for two or three year deal with
• 32:56
  Speaker 10: guaranteed money and he may get hurt Todd Gurley, go
• 33:01
  Speaker 10: drafts and have a rookie contract and start over. That
• 33:06
  Speaker 10: has been the norm. Now. The catch to it this
• 33:09
  Speaker 10: year is the SEC only have four draft picks.
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: And part of what.
• 33:13
  Speaker 10: Was really interesting that Schnyder said that they didn't get
• 33:16
  Speaker 10: a lot of attention in Indianapolis was when I asked
• 33:18
  Speaker 10: him how you viewed this draft with having only four picks,
• 33:22
  Speaker 10: and he said this was by design. We knew a
• 33:24
  Speaker 10: couple of years ago that this was not going to
• 33:26
  Speaker 10: be a good draft. We thought twenty five was going
• 33:28
  Speaker 10: to be better than twenty six, and twenty seven's way
• 33:31
  Speaker 10: better than twenty six. So that's part of the reason
• 33:34
  Speaker 10: you saw us do the moves we did, he said,
• 33:37
  Speaker 10: meaning trading two third day picks to get Rashid shi
• 33:41
  Speaker 10: heat in November. So going to go get a running
• 33:46
  Speaker 10: back in this draft when you're picking at the bottom
• 33:49
  Speaker 10: of each of the first three rounds and you only
• 33:51
  Speaker 10: have four picks, it's a little trickier proposition. That all
• 33:55
  Speaker 10: plays into what they do with Locker, and I think
• 33:57
  Speaker 10: it probably raises the price that they're going to offer
• 33:59
  Speaker 10: him than what they would It won't be as hard
• 34:02
  Speaker 10: a ligne they're towing. I don't think with Walker than
• 34:05
  Speaker 10: would be normally because of those factors. But again, if
• 34:09
  Speaker 10: it gets to next week, he's if he's shopping, I.
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: Think he's going. At his age position he's in.
• 34:15
  Speaker 10: Known he's got to go get all the money he
• 34:17
  Speaker 10: can before he's not able to play anymore.
• 34:19
  Speaker 6: Greg Bell is with US our Seahawks insider complete coverage
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: of the Seahawks available to you twenty four to seven
• 34:25
  Speaker 6: there at the News Tribune dot Com from Greg and
• 34:27
  Speaker 6: of course you can follow him throughout the year at
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: g Bell Seattle on X. He's been adventuring, he's been
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: in Boston, he's been in Indianapolis, he's been in Michigan,
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: and now he's back home, safely in bed, eating his
• 34:40
  Speaker 6: old meal, no doubt, and kissing Wendy good morning. It's
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: chucking buck right now here though. That's his life right now.
• 34:47
  Speaker 6: It's a kissing back.
• 34:48
  Speaker 10: And you just had a great and you pay him. Yeah,
• 34:50
  Speaker 10: the book right now though, Yeah, yeah, to real luck.
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty much, just kissing Bucky and I right now.
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: You're welcome here on the morning.
• 34:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah, on the forehead, on the forehead, Greg, Yeah.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Let's not get too still.
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: All right, So let's dive further into this Walker because
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: if you're not going to play, if he does leave,
• 35:14
  Speaker 6: and Bucket's right, there's no plan B in house right
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: now at the starting running back position. But you do
• 35:20
  Speaker 6: have three avenues. You could play free agency, you could draft,
• 35:25
  Speaker 6: and you could trade. Is that something since they're a
• 35:27
  Speaker 6: little bit down on this draft class, to begin with,
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: even with only four picks, do you flip a draft
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: pick to get like a David Montgomery of the Lions,
• 35:38
  Speaker 6: who apparently is available and you could probably get him
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: for a fourth, fifth or sixth round pick.
• 35:44
  Speaker 10: Well, this conflicting reports out of Detroit that I just
• 35:46
  Speaker 10: left whether he David Montgomery really wants to leave. But yes,
• 35:50
  Speaker 10: they all of those things are in play. I could
• 35:52
  Speaker 10: see them signing and.
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: Drafting and running back.
• 35:54
  Speaker 10: Yeah, certainly, and well yes, and if the right trade
• 36:00
  Speaker 10: proposal came around. The thing about being thirty two in
• 36:03
  Speaker 10: the first round is if it's a team that had
• 36:05
  Speaker 10: an earlier first round pick, usually a bad team, but
• 36:08
  Speaker 10: doesn't have multiple first round picks, they want to go
• 36:12
  Speaker 10: reach and get somebody they think won't be around when
• 36:14
  Speaker 10: they're picking again in the second round. That's a great
• 36:16
  Speaker 10: spot at thirty two to trade down. And I think
• 36:19
  Speaker 10: that's what John Schneider eventually will do because he, as
• 36:22
  Speaker 10: we've talked about, he never has thirty two on their
• 36:25
  Speaker 10: board for the first round worthy draft picks. Never, not
• 36:28
  Speaker 10: in my entire time covering the SEORKX that began in
• 36:30
  Speaker 10: two thousand and five, have they had thirty two first
• 36:34
  Speaker 10: round worthy players on the draft board, so it would
• 36:37
  Speaker 10: be make a lot of sense for them to trade down,
• 36:39
  Speaker 10: and whether that trade down would involve a running back
• 36:43
  Speaker 10: could be But I think all of those things are
• 36:45
  Speaker 10: in play even if perhaps they signed Kenneth Walker, but
• 36:50
  Speaker 10: especially if they don't. It's it is really if you
• 36:54
  Speaker 10: just said, well, he's a Super Bowl MVP and he's
• 36:56
  Speaker 10: twenty five, why can't you resign him? It's so much
• 36:59
  Speaker 10: more difficult in that because of the injury history, not
• 37:02
  Speaker 10: only with him but in the position. And John Schneider
• 37:07
  Speaker 10: has been very, very responsible sticking to his plan. He
• 37:11
  Speaker 10: rarely goes and reaches because of a need, whether it's
• 37:14
  Speaker 10: draft or free agency. I mean, I think of Draymond
• 37:17
  Speaker 10: Jones as one of the only reaches when they really
• 37:20
  Speaker 10: need edge drusher a couple of years ago, and they
• 37:22
  Speaker 10: went for fifty one million right out of the gate
• 37:24
  Speaker 10: of free agency, which he never does, and Draymond Jones
• 37:27
  Speaker 10: did nothing, I mean absolutely nothing for them. A year
• 37:31
  Speaker 10: and a half later, he was gone. And that and
• 37:34
  Speaker 10: some draft misses have really reminded Schnyder, stick to your plan,
• 37:39
  Speaker 10: stick to your plan. What were you going to give
• 37:41
  Speaker 10: him at the beginning when you first charted out what
• 37:43
  Speaker 10: Kenneth Walker would be worth you beyond twenty twenty six,
• 37:46
  Speaker 10: stick to that plan. Yes, Charbonne got her stick to
• 37:48
  Speaker 10: a plant. Yes, you only a force to stick to
• 37:50
  Speaker 10: a plant. It's really a discipline that he tries to
• 37:54
  Speaker 10: adhere himself too. And I can see him doing it
• 37:56
  Speaker 10: again this time. How much of those extenuating circumstances about
• 38:01
  Speaker 10: Charbona and nowhere apparent and all.
• 38:04
  Speaker 5: That would raise the price?
• 38:05
  Speaker 10: That's the question that to me will decide whether Walker
• 38:08
  Speaker 10: stays or not. If he's strict to his what they
• 38:11
  Speaker 10: have charted him to be worth and what they were
• 38:13
  Speaker 10: going to offer from before during the season, he's gone.
• 38:17
  Speaker 10: If they do change that number because of their.
• 38:20
  Speaker 5: Situation there and there's a chance to stay.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: Gee, I mean, just gut feel.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, when you win the Super Bowl, you don't
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: have a ton of holes to fill, even with some
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: exodus and a couple guys going here and there. But
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: what would you say as far as what's going to
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: be on what are your antenna's going to be up
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: looking for, whether it's a free agency draft, what is
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: it that you think the Seahawks are going to be
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: most wanting to get done this offseason.
• 38:46
  Speaker 10: Depths on the offensive and defensive lines. They never can
• 38:49
  Speaker 10: have enough defensive tackles and perhaps edge rusher running back
• 38:55
  Speaker 10: for what we just described, and defensive backs because they're
• 38:58
  Speaker 10: not bringing back all of them Woolen, Job and Bryant,
• 39:03
  Speaker 10: and they're not all coming back, so depending on how
• 39:06
  Speaker 10: who leaves and when next week, defensive backs probably corners.
• 39:13
  Speaker 10: Josh Job is interesting to me because I think the
• 39:15
  Speaker 10: Seahawks can have him for a price that again, if
• 39:18
  Speaker 10: he goes to the open market, will be much higher.
• 39:21
  Speaker 10: But I think he would return and sign for the
• 39:23
  Speaker 10: Seahawks that gave him his shot. I mean, the Eagles
• 39:25
  Speaker 10: just let him twist in the win and cut him
• 39:28
  Speaker 10: at the end of training camp a couple of years ago,
• 39:30
  Speaker 10: and he comes to Seattle and the Seahawks gave him
• 39:32
  Speaker 10: a starting job at his first full time starting job
• 39:35
  Speaker 10: in the NFL. That stuff matters to players. Yeah, it's
• 39:38
  Speaker 10: about the money in the end, But if you make
• 39:41
  Speaker 10: a reasonable offer to Josh Job, he's going to come back.
• 39:45
  Speaker 10: Woolan's a different deal.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: For what we've talked about before, because of his freakish
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: physical skills.
• 39:49
  Speaker 10: And his speed and the Pro Bowl pedigree and how
• 39:52
  Speaker 10: much he's played in his four years. If he goes
• 39:55
  Speaker 10: to marketeet gone, because he's going to come hand a
• 39:57
  Speaker 10: ton of money that's way more than what.
• 39:59
  Speaker 5: The seah Mikecdonald's plan for him is.
• 40:03
  Speaker 10: They're not going to bring everybody back.
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: They never do.
• 40:06
  Speaker 10: They always say they want to, but just the NFL
• 40:08
  Speaker 10: won't let them. So we'll know more this time next week,
• 40:12
  Speaker 10: well than nine days of from now, what their holes are,
• 40:16
  Speaker 10: because they're going to have a couple that come out
• 40:18
  Speaker 10: of free agency.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: All right, last thing for you.
• 40:20
  Speaker 6: I keep hearing that this is a bad draft, and
• 40:23
  Speaker 6: yet almost every position group.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: Set a record for fastest forty times.
• 40:29
  Speaker 6: And so I'm watching a six foot four inch two
• 40:33
  Speaker 6: hundred or six' five inch two hundred and forty five
• 40:35
  Speaker 6: pounds linebacker run a four to four seven forty WOULD
• 40:39
  Speaker 6: i would Just i'm going to ask you the QUESTION
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: i Asked bucky last.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: Hour are they just getting too big and? Fast at this?
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: POINT i realize if they're all evolving at the same,
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: rate but you're always talking about the, collisions the car
• 40:52
  Speaker 6: crashes that take place Every sunday in The National Football.
• 40:55
  Speaker 6: League they just keep getting, bigger and, Faster, GREG i,
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: mean is there an end to?
• 40:59
  Speaker 10: This, no nutrition and weight training and. Pharmaceuticals. No BUT
• 41:08
  Speaker 10: i will say, this the combine has become you only
• 41:12
  Speaker 10: run if you're, fast and if you, run you're. Fast
• 41:15
  Speaker 10: the guys that aren't fast don't, run that's.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: True the guys that don't do.
• 41:19
  Speaker 10: The three cone drills don't they don't. Go you're only
• 41:22
  Speaker 10: showcasing the best of the best. There it's become an
• 41:25
  Speaker 10: all star. Game the combine is the pro days have
• 41:28
  Speaker 10: become the. Combine the combine might be going away because
• 41:32
  Speaker 10: of how guys are just begging Out and there's a
• 41:35
  Speaker 10: dude that ran the sub for three the other day
• 41:37
  Speaker 10: and just, say, Okay i'm done for the rest of the.
• 41:39
  Speaker 5: Week i'm not doing any more. DRILLS i did a
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: four to two. Six i'm.
• 41:41
  Speaker 10: Good the only the guys who run are the fast.
• 41:44
  Speaker 10: Guys there used to be everyone. Ran, Yeah and so
• 41:47
  Speaker 10: the times are all over the. Map and then you
• 41:49
  Speaker 10: see in these stats of this is the fastest average
• 41:51
  Speaker 10: forty times for these, Positions, well, yeah it's only fast guys.
• 41:55
  Speaker 10: Run the average time is going to be the fastest
• 41:57
  Speaker 10: they've ever. Been good point the select inctivity of the
• 42:01
  Speaker 10: guys doing drills has really, changed unless then that's agents getting,
• 42:05
  Speaker 10: involved and that's pro days being outside compared to what
• 42:08
  Speaker 10: they used to. BE i, mean the pro days start.
• 42:10
  Speaker 10: Today The seahawks are sending guys across the country starting
• 42:13
  Speaker 10: today for their pro. Days schnyder left The combine BEFORE i.
• 42:17
  Speaker 10: Did he went back and did and watched the drills on.
• 42:21
  Speaker 10: Video so that'll give you an indication of what The seahawks
• 42:25
  Speaker 10: think of.
• 42:25
  Speaker 5: The combine right.
• 42:26
  Speaker 10: NOW a couple of years, ago McDonald and his staff
• 42:29
  Speaker 10: didn't even come, yet didn't even go to The indianapolis
• 42:31
  Speaker 10: at all because they were too busy doing their own.
• 42:33
  Speaker 10: Stuff The jaguars and The rams didn't send their coaches this.
• 42:36
  Speaker 10: YEAR i think the combine's on its way out because
• 42:39
  Speaker 10: of how just it's not worth what it's not at.
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: All what it was originally designed to.
• 42:44
  Speaker 6: Be, YEAH i think you're. RIGHT i actually think you're
• 42:46
  Speaker 6: right on that. One so all, Right, Greg well you're
• 42:50
  Speaker 6: right a.
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: LOT i don't mean just.
• 42:51
  Speaker 10: ONE i was just gonna say one out of a
• 42:52
  Speaker 10: year that's pretty.
• 42:53
  Speaker 9: Good, no it's just a good.
• 42:55
  Speaker 10: Beat bad guy would fuck?
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: You?
• 42:57
  Speaker 10: Would is that like ninety? Four maybe forty.
• 42:59
  Speaker 9: Five it's not.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: GOOD i think you want to be better than. That
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: you have been better than.
• 43:04
  Speaker 6: That my point was, like as somebody that's supposed to
• 43:09
  Speaker 6: be promoting the, Draft i'm probably not somebody that should
• 43:12
  Speaker 6: say THE Nfl combine's, dead BUT i THINK i will
• 43:16
  Speaker 6: have to agree.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: With you on this. One, yeah all, Right, well we'll
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: talk to you. Tomorrow maybe you'll get one right. Again all.

  Speaker 6: again for half of the year pulling out our. Hair you,
• 49:20
  Speaker 6: know people on the text line and On twitter wanting
• 49:23
  Speaker 6: him to be sent to the minors for goodness, sake
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: because he wasn't coming through in the first half of
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: the season.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: With runners in scoring.
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: Position and yet at the end of the year a
• 49:34
  Speaker 6: seven war. Season you, know a few players have a
• 49:37
  Speaker 6: seven war season starts this. Year is the number one
• 49:41
  Speaker 6: rank center fielder in all of? Baseball and so are we?
• 49:46
  Speaker 6: Going are we? Ready is he? Ready age twenty five?
• 49:50
  Speaker 6: Season this is this is entering your. Prime he's just
• 49:53
  Speaker 6: now entering his. Prime are we going to see the
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: year Of julio potentially this year like we saw the
• 50:00
  Speaker 6: year Of cali year.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: AGO i.
• 50:03
  Speaker 9: Hope.
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: SO i, mean REALLY i kind of feel like it
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: is just a matter of. Time and that's some people
• 50:08
  Speaker 3: out there want to hate On julio even though he's
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: made a Few All star. TEAMS i, mean HE'S i
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: think he finished like fourth and seventh and. Sixth he's
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: played three seasons in the big. Leagues he's finished in
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: the top seven three different times IN mvp. Voting, Crazy,
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: yeah that's the guy we should send. Down, okay so
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: it but it does still feel, like and this is
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: WHERE i have the same. Frustration it just is it's
• 50:35
  Speaker 3: tempered beyond the person that thinks he's overrated or that
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: he's the most you, know, misunderstood like overappreciated athlete In seattle.
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: History it's, like, no the dude is he's done really
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: well as a young, kid being kind of the face
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: of the franchise up Until cal maybe took that moniker
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: from our last. Year yeah, yeah BUT i MEAN i,
• 50:59
  Speaker 3: THINK i, mean what he's done is basically average thirty
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: homers a season as a twenty year old twenty one
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: twenty two to twenty three year old whatever it. Is
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: he's hitting two seventy, five which is as a, career
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: that's pretty. Good that's WHAT i. Mean there's not very
• 51:14
  Speaker 3: many people that do. That, now you're like you, said
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: he's getting better and better defensively every single. Year i'm
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: playing near Gold glove. Caliber he's definitely playing Gold glove.
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: Caliber he just hasn't won The Gold glove. YET i, think,
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: YES i would say that it's just a matter of.
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: Time And i'm hoping that this is the year that
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: he goes out there and doesn't have a poor month
• 51:34
  Speaker 3: or month and a half of the. Season if he
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: can get off to a good start in the first
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: forty games of the, year he's gonna hit three, hundred
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: he's gonna hit thirty five or forty, homers he's gonna
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: steal thirty or forty. Bags he's gonna win a Gold.
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: Glove you're talking about AN mvp caliber talent, Guy and
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: it's just a matter of. Time and you're, right twenty
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: five is when it should click for this.
• 51:52
  Speaker 7: Kid, Well and it's interesting because you know he has been,
• 51:55
  Speaker 7: good but because he hasn't achieved the expectations of you,
• 52:00
  Speaker 7: know being that superstar that you can count on every
• 52:02
  Speaker 7: yet bat and all of these things that people had
• 52:04
  Speaker 7: placed on him from the, beginning you, know before he
• 52:06
  Speaker 7: even really.
• 52:07
  Speaker 8: Arrived you're still getting we got.
• 52:09
  Speaker 7: A textas, Morning julio's the most overrated, athlete probably the
• 52:12
  Speaker 7: most overrated athlete In seattle sports.
• 52:14
  Speaker 8: History oh. War now there's an.
• 52:16
  Speaker 7: Overreaction but that's and that's just a bummer For julio
• 52:21
  Speaker 7: because it's, like, well he's been. Good you can't but
• 52:24
  Speaker 7: people don't want to recognize that he's been good because
• 52:26
  Speaker 7: he hasn't been.
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: Spectacular he hasn't had the full.
• 52:30
  Speaker 6: Season he's gotten off to slow starts all four years
• 52:34
  Speaker 6: of his young career and then got hot in the
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: second half and then at the end of the year
• 52:41
  Speaker 6: ended up posting. NUMBERS i mean, he's you, know twenty twenty,
• 52:46
  Speaker 6: four he had just twenty home, runs BUT i mean
• 52:49
  Speaker 6: he's averaged twenty eight home runs per season since he came.
• 52:52
  Speaker 6: Here bucky mentioned the two seventy four batting average a
• 52:55
  Speaker 6: one thirty ops plus one hundred is considered. AVERAGE i,
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: mean that's well above average for his. Career that's the
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: average of his career and As bucky mentioned as, well
• 53:08
  Speaker 6: three top SEVEN mvp votes for a guy that has
• 53:12
  Speaker 6: not had a full season where he started the year,
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: CLICKING i don't know what it takes to get him
• 53:18
  Speaker 6: out of the. Gates maybe THE wbc will help to
• 53:22
  Speaker 6: your point from, Earlier maybe getting some bats in the
• 53:26
  Speaker 6: middle Of march and we can rattle that cage a little.
• 53:30
  Speaker 6: EARLIER i don't, Know but if he gets off to
• 53:35
  Speaker 6: a good start for, once, Boy i'd.
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: Just like to see that season. Right just do.
• 53:41
  Speaker 6: That don't, start don't start in a hole that you
• 53:45
  Speaker 6: have to dig yourself out of the rest of the.
• 53:47
  Speaker 6: Year if he could get off to a good, START
• 53:50
  Speaker 6: i want to see what then, clicks what locks in
• 53:55
  Speaker 6: place for him for the entire, year because there's no.
• 53:58
  Speaker 6: DOUBT i, mean he's not put putting up Judge in type,
• 54:01
  Speaker 6: Numbers he's not putting Up Ronald akunya type numbers so
• 54:07
  Speaker 6: far in his young. Career but is there any doubt
• 54:10
  Speaker 6: that he's got fifty homer, potential got fifty homer potential
• 54:16
  Speaker 6: and then tack on thirty stolen base forty stolen base
• 54:20
  Speaker 6: potential still in his mid. Twenties for goodness, sake defense
• 54:24
  Speaker 6: keeps getting. Better you, KNOW i don't know how you
• 54:28
  Speaker 6: correct being more reliable.
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: With runners in scoring.
• 54:32
  Speaker 6: Position that might be something between the years that he
• 54:35
  Speaker 6: struggles with because he doesn't have the best at bats
• 54:38
  Speaker 6: in those. Situations it's not that he's just it's not
• 54:40
  Speaker 6: that he's just. Failing it's that we've never liked his
• 54:44
  Speaker 6: approach in those. Situations he always seems like he's trying
• 54:47
  Speaker 6: to hit in one thousand foot home run when all
• 54:50
  Speaker 6: you need is a. Sacrifice and, SO i, mean there's
• 54:54
  Speaker 6: a lot of improving to. Do BUT i would just
• 54:56
  Speaker 6: like to see if he didn't wake up On may
• 55:00
  Speaker 6: with a two to ten batting average and three home
• 55:03
  Speaker 6: runs for a, change what that could unleash for him
• 55:07
  Speaker 6: for an entire.
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: Year, WELL i, mean we've seen something that is remarkable
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: as far as his resilience or the mental toughness that he.
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: Brings Because i'm gonna tell, YOU i DON'T i don't
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: care who you. Are when you look up and you're
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: one hundred and one hundred and twenty abs into the
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: season and you got a one something batting average or
• 55:24
  Speaker 3: a barely over two.
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: HUNDRED i mean you're not hitting your.
• 55:27
  Speaker 3: Weight that's not, enjoyable and you know that at that
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: point you can't GO a one for four isn't doing.
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: Anything it's not, Changing you're Not you go from a
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: one oh eight batting average to a one oh nine batting.
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: Average with a one for, four now an zero for,
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: Four it'll keep. Dropping and so you got to start
• 55:44
  Speaker 3: putting together multiple knock days to start climbing out of that.
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: Hole and he's done it every single, year including the first,
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: year the first year he Wins rookie of The year he.
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: Has you, know it's kind of shortened to some. Degree
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: he only played one hundred and thirty two, games but
• 55:59
  Speaker 3: HiT's almost thirty. Homers it was. Unbelievable now he kind
• 56:02
  Speaker 3: of dropped a little bit and then dropped a little
• 56:04
  Speaker 3: bit more in his second and third, season and everybody's, like,
• 56:07
  Speaker 3: oh here we, go. Bust it's, like, no he still
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: is well above, average well above. Average he's just not
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: hadn't came to fulfill the promises that maybe we set
• 56:17
  Speaker 3: the expectations too high for people when we saw. HIM
• 56:19
  Speaker 3: i don't think we did, necessarily but BECAUSE i don't
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: think we did, period BECAUSE i still think that he's
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: a forty to forty, GUY i. Don't it's just a
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: matter of he has to stop get digging himself into
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: a hole where all of a, sudden you, know it's
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: it's this last. Year what was the bet that the
• 56:36
  Speaker 3: kid had somewhere like that he wasn't gonna Bear. Agowyers,
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: yeah wuldn't get to get to twenty home looking.
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: For a long time like he. Wasn't, yeah well not
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: just to get.
• 56:44
  Speaker 3: There, yeah he had like nine or, something with like
• 56:46
  Speaker 3: a month left in the season or something crazy like,
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: that and all of a sudden he got hot enough
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: to where he ended up getting to. Twenty it's if
• 56:52
  Speaker 3: he doesn't dig himself into a. HOLE i have a
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: feeling that because when he gets, hot he gets as
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: hot as anybody.
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: GETS i mean.
• 56:59
  Speaker 3: He he goes nuclear on people when all of a sudden
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: he starts feeling.
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: Hot and so if he.
• 57:05
  Speaker 3: Can get on that, EARLY i, MEAN i think you
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: could be looking at a guy that's sitting at around
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: what his career average is now as The All star
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: Break home runs. Wise, now all of a, sudden if
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: he does, that he's gonna already have twenty five thirty
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: stolen bases as. Well you're gonna be talking about a
• 57:21
  Speaker 3: guy midway through the, season as far as in AN
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: mvp conversation gold glove conversation that could possibly go forty,
• 57:29
  Speaker 3: forty LIKE i, said or even beyond.
• 57:30
  Speaker 7: Now it's interesting BECAUSE i feel Like julio and The,
• 57:33
  Speaker 7: mariners like the way that people treat both of, Them
• 57:36
  Speaker 7: like the organization of The mariners as a whole And
• 57:38
  Speaker 7: julio are very. Similar there's you, know it's it's a
• 57:42
  Speaker 7: lot of, well we're gonna wait and see what they can,
• 57:46
  Speaker 7: do not high, expectations not, saying, oh, yeah this team's
• 57:49
  Speaker 7: gonna go to the playoffs to start the.
• 57:51
  Speaker 8: Season you, know there's so much.
• 57:52
  Speaker 6: We're gonna believe in you Because i'm gonna brace myself
• 57:55
  Speaker 6: for you, disappointment, yes.
• 57:56
  Speaker 7: Exactly and then when they disappoint or have a, slump
• 57:59
  Speaker 7: it's he told you exactly what we thought was going to.
• 58:02
  Speaker 7: Happen and they do the same thing With, julio they
• 58:04
  Speaker 7: do the same thing with The. Mariners it's AND i
• 58:08
  Speaker 7: don't understand.
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: IT i think it's.
• 58:09
  Speaker 6: Fair and, LOOK i, MEAN i, mean obviously The mariners
• 58:13
  Speaker 6: have a lot of proving to, do, yeah and they
• 58:15
  Speaker 6: have mishandled things here in the last ten. Years certainly
• 58:20
  Speaker 6: over fifty, years they've mishandled, Things they've screwed things. Up,
• 58:23
  Speaker 6: yeah And julio's not a perfect baseball player by any
• 58:28
  Speaker 6: stretch of the, imagination and so he does have some
• 58:32
  Speaker 6: things to shore. Up BUT i do believe you're, right
• 58:36
  Speaker 6: and that people get so blinded by their expectations and their.
• 58:41
  Speaker 6: Hope you were supposed to Be Ken Griffy junior and
• 58:44
  Speaker 6: you haven't been that, yet and so NOW i exaggerate when.
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: You do fit me.
• 58:49
  Speaker 8: Exactly, yeah that's a good way to put.
• 58:51
  Speaker 6: It, Yeah AND i want to get one other thing
• 58:54
  Speaker 6: in on this BECAUSE i think for a year Of
• 58:58
  Speaker 6: kyl to take place For, julio so a lot has
• 59:01
  Speaker 6: to lock into, place and that includes like the psyche
• 59:04
  Speaker 6: about it, All like you've got to be in the right,
• 59:06
  Speaker 6: mindset you've got to be ready to seize, superstardom uh
• 59:10
  Speaker 6: when you're. THERE i, mean we Watched Jared kelnick Versus Julio,
• 59:15
  Speaker 6: rodriguez and it could not have been easy For jared
• 59:19
  Speaker 6: to sit there and Watch julio become the face of
• 59:22
  Speaker 6: the franchise while he's struggling to hit over two hundred
• 59:26
  Speaker 6: AND i don't know if that drove him to such
• 59:28
  Speaker 6: madness because he was already a bit of a head
• 59:30
  Speaker 6: case that he couldn't get out of his own. Way
• 59:33
  Speaker 6: maybe he wasn't going to get out of his own
• 59:35
  Speaker 6: way no matter. What or maybe watching somebody else flourish
• 59:39
  Speaker 6: while he's struggling was the death nail For Jared.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: Kelnick in A mariner. UNIFORM i don't.
• 59:45
  Speaker 6: Know that probably dangerous, speculation but it's hard for me
• 59:49
  Speaker 6: not to consider. That, WELL i Watch, julio who had
• 59:54
  Speaker 6: to now go through the experience of Watching Cal rawley
• 59:58
  Speaker 6: pass him as the face the franchise this. Passion, yeah
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 6: he had to Watch year Of cal even when he
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 6: was struggling back In april And, may and he had
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 6: to watch the love affair crow and blossom to this fevered.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 6: Pitch and now he's had to live with that an entire.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 6: OFFSEASON i wonder how he'll handle. THAT i wonder if
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 6: that motivates, Him bucky or discourages, him if that makes
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 6: him mentally stronger or mentally. Weaker because these things do factor.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 6: In they are human. Beings this is why. Robot If
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 6: hulo was a, robot we just set him to his
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 6: talents and he'd have a forty forty. Season but if
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 6: he can really, embrace if he gets off to a
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 6: good start and kind of embrace like it is awesome
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 6: That cal AND i are doing this together when both
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 6: superstars at the same, time he might go out And
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 6: roger maris the thing this, year.
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: You know WHAT i.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 6: Mean but if he does get into a slump and
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 6: it does start to weigh on him That cal that
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 6: was supposed to be, me Which i'm not seeing any
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 6: evidence that that's. True they seem to get along really,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 6: well then it could end up damaging him going.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: Forward so there's a lot of factors in. It bottom.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 6: Line in the last couple of minutes here of the,
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 6: SEGMENT i think there's a chance we're going to see
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 6: The year Of. JULIO i think IT'S i think there's
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 6: a And i've said, THIS i guess three years in a,
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 6: row so why would you listen to?
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: Me BUT i think it's gonna come together this.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 6: YEAR i think he's got the right mindset for, it
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 6: and certainly as the, talent and if it can just
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 6: get off to a decent start In, APRIL i think
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 6: we're going to see that magical year we've been waiting for.
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: It, WELL i, MEAN i mean you have said, It
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 3: i've said, It we've all thought it that this is
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 3: the year that he's going to break, out and yet
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 3: he's really let us down and only hit like thirty
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: homers a. Year SO i mean IT'S i, mean it's
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 3: the guy is ready to. Pop it's a matter of
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: how he handles what you're talking talking about being passed
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: on the face of the franchise. Chart but remember last
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 3: year when they lost that game seven AND i think
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: it was wu was being interviewed and you heard that
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 3: primal scream from the.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: Showers, yeah that was.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: Him that's the dude that is twenty five years old
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: that has made the playoffs twice in his four years
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: he's been, here and yet was not satisfied with getting
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: further than The Seattle mariners have ever.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: Gotten he Wasn't he's not.
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 3: Satisfied SO i don't think that he's satisfied at sitting
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: at a thirty two homer. PACE i think he knows
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 3: he's capable Of ronald o'cunya. NUMBERS i don't know if
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 3: anybody's necessarily capable Of Aaron judge.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: Numbers judge And otani that's pretty. Much you could just
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: go do your. Thing, yeah you do do your.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: Thing BUT i think he's capable of putting up numbers
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: with anybody else that plays the, Game Juan SOTO'S i,
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: mean he's not gonna hit for that kind of, average
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 3: have that kind of on base. Percentage but he can
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: hit for, power he can hit for, average he can steal,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: bases he can do everything you need to. Do he
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 3: actually has the clutch gene as. Well he just at
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: times tries too damn. HARD i think that it's a
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: little bit OF i have to do.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 5: It.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: Well now you Have, naylor you Have Brendan, donovan you
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 3: have cal who's come in to. It you, don't you
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 3: have A, Rosarina you don't have to carry.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 8: Anything the pressure is just do.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 9: You, yeah just go do.
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 1: You and you. Will gave me. Goosebumps just gave myself.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: Goosebumps just go do you and you.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: Will you will end up carrying this team plenty of
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 3: the games over the course of the.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 7: Season, YEAH i was gonna, SAY i feel like this
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 7: year is probably the least expectations placed on him for you,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 7: know what the team needs from, him and maybe that
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 7: alone right, there just being able to go in saying, Like,
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 7: OKAY i don't have to get sixty home runs in
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 7: order for this team to make the.
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 8: PLAYOFFS i. Could it'd be really.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 6: Great my expectations for, you if you're listening, earlier are
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 6: higher than ever. Before all, Right but you but to your,
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 6: point because if they can Just mickey And mariss this
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 6: thing and and you, know If kyl has a right
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 6: not at sixty homers, again but, yeah if we've got
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 6: a forty homer a year catcher and a forty five
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 6: homer a forty forty five homer a year center, fielder
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 6: what do they?
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: Do what do they? Say build it up the?
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 9: Middle oh my.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: Gosh and they're both in their.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 8: Twenties, yeah that'd be.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 9: Great, jeez it could be.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 6: Fun All, Right we've got some breaking news from The
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 6: National Football, league AND i do wonder how it affects
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 6: The Ken walker.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: Situation we'll talk about it.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 6: Next Sports radio ninety three point THREE kjrfm by nine o'clock.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: Hour here on This monday.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 6: Morning great to have you with, Us Chuck, cole Former,
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 6: Mariner Bucky, jacobson And Ashley ryan with. You we'll talk
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 6: more about The mariners coming up a little bit later
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 6: on in this Hour The.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 8: Kids it was The kids.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 6: Also we'll get into the Ken walker. Topic we've had
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 6: a couple of breaking stories today in THE, nfl including
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 6: trade Of David montgomery from The Detroit lions to The Houston.
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 6: Texans he has just one year left on his. Contract
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 6: they gave up a fourth, rounder a seventh, rounder and
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 6: a player in exchange For, montgomery and for a team
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 6: that feels like it's in a Super bowl window, themselves
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 6: it might just be a couple offensive pieces. Away that's
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 6: a pretty nice little move there for The Houston, texans
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 6: but it does take another possibility for replacing potentially Ken
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 6: walker off of the, market As montgomery did seem going
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 6: into today to be a viable trade option for any
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 6: team in The National Football, league and now you can
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 6: cross him off the list, then because he is no
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 6: longer available to potential. Suitors Greg, Beller seahawks, insider was
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 6: with us at seven o'clock this. Morning we asked for
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 6: a little bit of an update on Ken walker and
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 6: whether or Not john and The seahawks will get something
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 6: done with ken before free.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 10: AGENCY i could see them signing and drafting or running
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 10: back the thing about being thirty two in the first
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 10: round is a team that had an earlier first round,
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 10: pick usually a bad, team but doesn't have multiple first round.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 10: Picks they want to go reach and get somebody they
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 10: think won't be around when they're picking again in the second.
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 10: Round that's a great spot at thirty two to trade,
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 10: down AND i think that's What John schneider eventually will
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 10: do because, he as we've talked, about he never has
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 10: thirty two on their board for the first round worthy draft. Picks,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 10: never not in my entire time covering The seahawks that
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 10: began in two thousand and, five have they had thirty
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 10: two first round worthy players on their draft. Board so
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 10: it would be make a lot of sense for them
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 10: to trade. Down and whether that trade down would involve
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 10: a running back could Be BUT i think all of
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 10: those things are in play even if perhaps they Signed Kenneth, walker.
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 5: But especially if they.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 10: Don't if you just, said, well, well he's A Super BOWL,
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 10: mvp and he's twenty, five why can't you resign, Him
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 10: it's so much more difficult than that because of the
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 10: injury history.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 5: Not only with him but in the.
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 10: Position And John schneider has been very very, responsible sticking
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 10: to his. Plan he rarely goes and reaches because of a,
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 10: need whether it's draft or free. AGENCY i, MEAN i
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 10: think Of Draymond jones as one of the only reaches
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 10: when they really Need Edge rusher a couple of years,
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 10: ago and they went for fifty one million right out
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 10: of the gate of free, agency which he never, does
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 10: And Draymond jones did, NOTHING i mean absolutely nothing for.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 10: THEM a year and a half later he was. Gone
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 10: and that and some draft misses have really Reminded. Schnyder
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 10: stick to your. Plan what were you going to give
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 10: him in the beginning when you first charted out What
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 10: Kenneth walker would be worth you beyond twenty twenty. Six
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 10: stick to that. Plan, Yes charbonne got her stick to a. Plant,
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 10: yes she only afford to stick to a. Plant it's
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 10: really a discipline that he tries to adhere himself. Too
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 10: AND i could see him doing it again this. Time
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 10: how much of those extenuating circumstances About charbona.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 5: And nowhere apparent all that would raise the.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 10: Price that's the question that to me will decide Whether
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 10: walker stays or. Not if he's strict to his what
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 10: they have charted him to be worth and what they.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 5: Were going to offer from before during the, season he's.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 10: Gone if they do change that number because of their
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 10: situation there and there's a chance to, stay, well they
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 10: have to change the.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 6: NUMBER i, mean he's forced them to change the. NUMBER
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 6: i kind of think they will and should change the.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 6: NUMBER i think that considering the other options out there
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 6: for running back and Replacing Ken. Walker, Yeah I'M i
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 6: mean right. NOW i mean Spoke trek still has them
• 1:08:41
  Speaker 6: valued at nine. MILLION i don't see any place On
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 6: earth where that's going to. HAPPEN i think he's going
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 6: to get up to around twelve if he wants to
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 6: enter the bidding from teams across The National Football. LEAGUE
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 6: i Think Dalvin cook drove it to twelve a year.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 6: Ago if you're the number one free agent on the
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 6: market at that given, position market value is going to
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 6: speak to how much money you, make not, necessarily, well
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 6: you're not better than Not Dalvin, Cook James. Cook you're
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 6: not better Than James, cook so you're not going to
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 6: get the. Money, no if he's the number one running
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 6: back and there's a need for running backs out there
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 6: and everybody just got thirty extra, million because they've created
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 6: more cap. Space Ken walker's probably going to make more
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 6: money than that this season on the open. Market, now
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 6: DO i go all the way that far If I'm John,
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 6: Schneider probably, Not but you're certainly going up from what
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 6: you were planning to offer him a month.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: AGO i, MEAN i think.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 6: That maybe four years forty four seems pretty reasonable to.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 6: ME i might even go a little bit further BECAUSE
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 6: i don't really love the options for replacing him out,
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 6: there And i'm down two running, backs not just. One
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 6: i'd like to have something That i'm familiar, with THAT
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 6: i like THAT i, trust and Ken walker coming. Back,
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 6: plus he's a twenty five year old free, agent and
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 6: nobody likes young free agents more Than John schneider.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 10: In the entire.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: World, SO i, mean there's.
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 6: A lot of reasons to think that The seahawks are
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 6: going to get uncomfortable for their offer to keep Ken.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 6: Walker you just have to wonder if the agent's going
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 6: to know if the agent's going to drive such a
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 6: hard bargain that they're at least going to test the.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 6: Waters and once they test the, Waters Bucky, man that
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 6: price might shoot well past eleven million per.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: Year, YEAH i, MEAN i, Yeah i'm with. You WHEN
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 3: i first looked into it and saw the nine, Million i'm, like,
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 3: well that's that's a pretty good, deal all, right that
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 3: would be a great deal when you go up to
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 3: eleven and you said you'd possibly even go beyond that
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: if you start, thinking, okay four years forty, four like
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 3: you're talking about what would that be two years? Guaranteed,
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 3: right probably something like. That so then you're, saying, okay
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 3: we're on the hook for twenty two million. Bucks, well
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 3: at that, point are you trusting if you'reder, now if
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: you are A seahawks fan and you're Trusting John schneider
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 3: to make the right, call do you want to put
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 3: twenty two million bucks for? Sure twenty two million bucks
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 3: into somebody that has had one season of staying fully.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 3: Healthy that's something THAT i, MEAN i think there's something to.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 3: It maybe you've figured out the game plan of you
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 3: do have to have a one b that do you
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 3: have to you have to give? Him then that's not.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 3: Unusual there's very few bell cows out there that just
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 3: kind of take the rock and run at thirty.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: Times there are still, Some, yeah well those are the.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 3: Ones that is The Saquon barkley's if you will that
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 3: you're gonna have to pay more for. Ye so if
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 3: he's willing to dance with, you it's somewhere around the
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 3: ten million ten eleven, ish then maybe you go, there
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 3: because otherwise your other option is do the franchise tag
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 3: and paying fourteen for one, year and now all of a,
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 3: sudden he either gets hurt and you still have to
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: pay m fourteen million bucks or he runs out of
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 3: that contract and he's gone after a. Year because you're
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 3: not gonna then you've you've kind of squashed the idea
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 3: of them sticking around for any loyalty reason because you
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 3: didn't invest in them long. Term SO i think that
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 3: there's they're gonna come up to that. NUMBER i Just
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 3: i'm kind of with you that if you don't get
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: this done before the tampering period and they get to
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 3: start receiving phone calls if they haven't, already and finding
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 3: out what other people are willing to pay for, him
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 3: because you know that there's ONE gm out there that
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 3: loved him when he came, out loved what he did
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 3: his first, year and then blamed The seahawks and their
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 3: ocs for not using him the right.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: Way, uh and then all of.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 3: A sudden when they start giving him the rocket throughout the, playoffs.
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 3: Boom he helps you, know lead you guys or helps
• 1:12:36
  Speaker 3: contribute to get to a Super.
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: Bowl, SO i don't.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 3: KNOW i mean they don't have a, ton, RIGHT i
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 3: mean they Have Jakaria wright who got hurt Last, well
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 3: they got.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 6: NOTHING i mean they Have macintosh and they've got some
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 6: other guys that they don't have. Anything they have nothing
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 6: to repeat a Super bowl with at running, back.
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 3: Right they don't have something you could plug in. There
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: BUT i would be willing to bet that they think
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 3: of one of those guys as possibly the ability if
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 3: if they Thought Zach charbonay could be back and ready
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 3: sometime early next, season that maybe that could be the
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 3: one be to.
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: Him i'll bet you they think one of those.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 3: Guys but, AGAIN i think you're taking a step backwards
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: from where you just ended the season as a Super
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 3: bowl if you do.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 1: That, NO i Think charbonnay's value is the change. UP
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: i don't think him being.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 6: Your bellcow running back works for, me AND i don't
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 6: think you went a Super bowl that. WAY i think,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 6: that but it does beg the question where do you
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 6: go from? Here LIKE i said a couple of, TIMES
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 6: i don't love the options out.
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: THERE i, mean you just call up a free agent.
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 6: List Breys hall's going to get franchise tagged by The,
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 6: jets so that's not going to.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: Happen and Then travis at.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 6: Ten but if the running back market is COMING i
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 6: Like Travis, atien but he's two years older Than. Walker
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 6: if the and if the value of the running back
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 6: market is coming, up and you've got to go nine
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 6: for at ten when you could of gone ten For,
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 6: Walker i'd rather have the GUY i, know rather dance
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 6: with the DEVIL i, know And Ken walker at. Ten
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 6: i'm not gonna go with my second option just to
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 6: save a million dollars per. Season and then after, THAT i,
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 6: MEAN i don't see really a one guy that you could.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 6: Have you got everybody else on the free agent market
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 6: is somebody that you pair to be and their power,
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 6: guys which you already have the power guy and Sharbon a,
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 6: theoretically but Like dowdele And pacheco uh And Brian robinson
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 6: And Rashad. White, YEAH i Think i'd be all right
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 6: if they were my ONE b. Option but i don't
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 6: want them to be my one a option trying to
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 6: repeat as Super bowl. Champions SO i don't know IF
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 6: i really love that group. Whatsoever and, again if that's
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 6: the Group i'm having to choose from to find my
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 6: starting running, Back.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: I'm going to the agent like how? Much how much
• 1:14:50
  Speaker 1: more DO i need to? Go what do we gotta do?
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 7: Here that's WHY i think that's WHY i lean more
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 7: towards him coming, back just because of. That those other
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 7: options doesn't seem like anything That John schneider be comfortable.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 8: With and then, yeah you're going to draft Some, well.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 6: The question is is there something that he's going to
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 6: be more comfortable, with BECAUSE i think people would argue
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 6: he's going to be.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: Less comfortable overpaying a running.
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 9: Back.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: Ye then he is trying to, find through three different methods.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 8: Replacements, yeah, No AND i DO i do understand.
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 7: THAT i JUST i do think he'll they'll come to
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 7: an agreement on a price that's fair For, walker that
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 7: doesn't Make schneider want to poop.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 8: Himself you, KNOW i think he'll be, well, yes.
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: If they do, that then that's. Easy then you sign
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: him and you keep. HIM i think they want to keep, Him.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah but you know there's going to be a limit
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 6: to how much they're going to pay. Him and if
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 6: they don't figure if the agent THINKS i can get
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 6: twelve thirteen million dollars a year on the, market then
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 6: you're not accepting The seahawks offer Before. Sunday so that's
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 6: the trick of it. ALL i Meant williams got. Twelve
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 6: Javonte williams got eight million dollars a year from The Dallas.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 6: Cowboys that's sort of the off season market center for
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 6: the running back. Position they gave him, eight so you're
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 6: gonna have to go more than, that that's for. Sure
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 6: probably gonna have to go to nine. Minimum my guess
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 6: is they are offering four forty that's not a. Problem
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 6: here's ten and.
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: Gave in mind this IS nfl, math which isn't real.
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 6: Math and then if you want to keep, him If
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 6: i'm the, agent, like, well what are you going to
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 6: pay us to keep us from testing the? Market, okay
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 6: we'll go eleven forty. Four but my guess is that's
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 6: about where it's going to. End and if he wants
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 6: more than, that they think they can get more than,
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 6: that THEN i think he hits the open. Market somebody
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 6: who's not as good at what they do As John schneider.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 1: Is we'll pay him more and we might say goodbye
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: to him at that.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 3: Point, yeah it ends up making you kind of go
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 3: down the list of what's the new offensive coordinator's name
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 3: slip in my? Mind the new offensive coordinator for A sioux? Flurry,
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 3: yeah that maybe he has someone in mind right that
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 3: he was running With, robinson the guy that was a
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 3: backup to McCaffrey In San.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: Francisco you got they're gonna.
• 1:17:08
  Speaker 3: Have there's obviously names on their table when they're they're
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 3: making their plan and their contingency plan Of, OKAY i
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 3: think that they would most certainly Want walker back.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 1: If it's the number that makes them feel good or even.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: Comfortable there's an uncomfortable number they're not going to go,
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 3: to and then they start looking at, okay, well and
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: the fact that you have a new offensive, coordinator that's
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 3: a new set of, eyes it's a new. Brain it's
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 3: somebody that wants somebody that runs it the way that
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 3: he wants them to.
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 1: Run AND i would be willing to.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 3: Bet that there's someone out there that they have their
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 3: eye on that if this doesn't. Work they're not going
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 3: to feel like they're like we have a, hole like
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 3: we aren't gonna they have something in mind that they
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 3: would be able to figure, out which would be planned
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 3: b if Ken walker is their.
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 6: Plan, yeah well my guess is that if it's Not,
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 6: walker then maybe you make a run at. Ten but
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 6: if you end up having to pay pretty close to
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 6: what you have to Pay, walker then you go with
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 6: what you, know the other option you could. Trade, now
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 6: we just had somebody come off the board And Dave,
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 6: Montgomery DEVIN. H chan is an interesting name out there
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 6: The Miami, dolphins and HE i think you have to
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 6: pair with a, bruiser and yet for some reason The
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 6: dolphins decided to run him between the tackles and the
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 6: bigger running back.
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: Outside it's really, strange strange.
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 6: Philosophy That mike McDaniel used a lot of injury history,
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 6: there but obviously an explosive running. Back he's got one
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 6: year left on his. Deal it looks like The dolphins
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 6: are going to. Rebuild sounds like they are going to trade.
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 6: Him their stories all over the place about how The
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 6: Chicago bears are trying to land A chan to their.
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 6: Team but that's interesting for The. Seahawks he'd make just
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 6: six million dollars for this upcoming. SEASON a year, ago
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 6: they were saying a first, rounder but that was with
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 6: two years left on his. Contract now he just has
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 6: one year left on his, Contract SO i would imagine
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 6: A day two. Pick maybe you'd.
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: Have to give up a late second rounder in order
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: to Get david Eight.
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 6: Chan but that's, interesting you, know you just we're in
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 6: a championship window stop gap running. Back maybe we don't
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 6: invest long term into an, undersized injury suspicious running back
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 6: in Eight, chan but we just use him for this,
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 6: year like The texans apparently are going to Use David
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 6: montgomery for a. Year Alvin kamara is another guy That
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 6: New orleans would like to get out from underneath his.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 6: CONTRACT i don't think that The seahawks would trade For
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 6: kamara under his current, Deal but if you could work
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 6: out a, deal a different deal where he's less of
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 6: a cap hit against, you even though he's got fading,
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 6: skills that's somebody that had a pretty high bar in
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 6: terms of his abilities to run a. Football maybe that's an. Option,
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 6: AGAIN i don't think it would be at his, salary
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 6: BUT i think a combination of a draft. PICK i
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 6: think for sure The seahawks are drafting a running back
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 6: even if they keep Ken, walker and THEN i think Without,
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 6: charbone you take that draft pick and you team them
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 6: with either a cheap free agent or you pull off
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 6: some sort of trade on an expiring.
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 1: Contract at this, point those are their.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 3: Options, yeah, YEAH i, mean they'll figure out. Something but
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 3: it is interesting because you're kind of the clock is
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 3: ticking on what you would WHAT i would think from
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 3: an outside and OBVIOUSLY i don't know all the information
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 3: of what they're talking, about and they who they, love
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 3: if there's somebody on that free agent, list or if
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 3: there's somebody in a trade that they're, like we, know
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 3: we love that guy enough that we would give them
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 3: their asking price to fill this. In if Ken walker does,
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 3: WORK i MEAN i would imagine Ken walkers their number one.
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 3: Choice but if that isn't or if there's a close,
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 3: second if they're PLANNING b is something they feel really comfortable,
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 3: with then maybe it doesn't feel like the clock is
• 1:21:02
  Speaker 3: ticking quite the same as it does to. Me to,
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 3: me it feels like you just want a Super. Bowl
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 3: you are in the midst of a championship, window for,
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 3: sure when it comes to how that defense. Is you
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 3: got your quarterback all lined, up your wide receivers lined.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 3: Up as far As jaysen, goes it looks like everything
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 3: is pointing in the right.
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 1: Direction but that's a big.
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 3: PIECE i, mean as much as they undervalue because of
• 1:21:25
  Speaker 3: the injury history with running, backs that is such a
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 3: big piece that you saw how important it. WAS i
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 3: Think i'm with. YOU i think they probably win The
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 3: Super bowl even if he doesn't run the way that
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 3: he ran throughout the. Playoffs but at the same, time
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 3: to just come in with something that feels like a
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 3: question mark to, me is not the practice that they
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 3: want to go. WITH i just have a feeling they
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 3: have other contingency plans that they don't feel are going
• 1:21:47
  Speaker 3: to be quite as bad as probably what it would
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 3: it feel like to.
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 1: Me, YEAH i don't think.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 6: THAT i think they're more worried about overpaying for somebody
• 1:21:54
  Speaker 6: than they are being without. Something, YES i. DO i
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 6: think that's just the Way John. SCHNEIDER i don't think
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 6: that he with. It we're at the beginning of the.
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 6: OFFSEASON i, Mean David montgomery's been. Traded that's the only
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 6: thing that's happened to the running back, market, right so
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 6: we're at the beginning of.
• 1:22:12
  Speaker 1: IT i think he's would be.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 6: FAR i think he would be far more reluctant to
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 6: overpay for Ken walker than he WOULD i don't think
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 6: that he fears starting, over even if he has to start,
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 6: over because he has everything at his, disposal, trades free,
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 6: agents and then of course the.
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 1: Draft and we've found plenty.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 6: Of guys that make an immediate impact right off the
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 6: bat through the. DRAFT i will only point out one
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 6: BECAUSE i pointed him out last week as the guy
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 6: to circle at THE Nfl combine over the, Weekend Arkansas's
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 6: Mike Washington junior became the darling of the running back
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 6: class with all of the measurables over the weekend six
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 6: one two twenty three runs like Ken.
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 1: Walker four three three forty at two twenty, three four three.
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 1: Three that's, moving.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 6: That's, yeah and that's you, know twelve pounds more than
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 6: what Ken walker.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: Weighs.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, WELL i mean you just think about, it and you're.
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 3: Right IN nfl, math capology is not normal. Math but
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 3: it's still the fact of it is you can go
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 3: out and get you, KNOW i, Mean Brice hall and
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 3: Ken walker are like the top two guys as far
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 3: as our market value Ken walker probably even above him
• 1:23:24
  Speaker 3: when it comes to what he would ask for this.
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 3: Year you can get another free agent guy and a
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 3: rookie or two for the price of one Ken walker
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 3: if he's wanting to get the top dollar out. There
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 3: so then then you have three options to where you're,
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 3: like hopefully one of these sticks and you're off and.
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 6: Running, well the countdown is on against the clock from this.
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 6: Standpoint the tampering period starts On, monday so you probably
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 6: do need to get a deal done Before sunday to avoid.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 6: This we shall see two trains leaving the. Station where
• 1:23:57

• 1:24:52
  Speaker 6: mlb event The Spring, breakout which is now an annual
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 6: thing where they just for a couple of games show
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 6: off all the top prospects in the, sport all at
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 6: the exact same. Time that's coming up on the nineteenth
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 6: Of march through the twenty second as.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: Well so a couple of different. Events one's going to
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 1: hand off to the other where you're going to actually
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 1: see baseball where people aren't just working on, things actually
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: trying to get each other out on. Stuff, yeah you,
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 1: know trying to hustle out round for. Reels, yeah maybe
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: break up a double. Play oh better not do, it dark, guy, imagine.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 6: Imagine BUT i want to ask, YOU i, mean you've
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 6: gone through this process before. YOURSELF i THINK i can
• 1:25:35
  Speaker 6: make sense of the spring training at, Bats Like Kyle
• 1:25:40
  Speaker 6: rawley leads the team right, now he has had nineteen played.
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 9: Appearances in five.
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 1: Games that's.
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 6: Unusual usually the star player in the first five spring
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 6: training games that he plays doesn't get nearly four at, bats,
• 1:25:54
  Speaker 6: Right but he's going to be in THE, wbc so
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 6: they're getting him ready for, that right?
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: Yep all?
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 6: Right so Cal Josh naylor is the has received the
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 6: second most played appearances so far in the. Spring he's
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 6: playing For Team. Canada they're getting him. Ready Miles Master
• 1:26:12
  Speaker 6: bony and Dom canzone are fourth and fifth on the
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 6: list in terms of played appearances so far in spring training.
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 6: Games they're both playing For Team italy And RANDY. A
• 1:26:22
  Speaker 6: Rose arena's sixth most played appearances and he's playing For Team.
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 6: Mexico so that's pretty clear cut and, dry, right this
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 6: is an excessive number of play appearances for a normal
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 6: spring training for you, know five veteran players like, this
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 6: and yet what they're clearly doing is ramping these guys
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 6: up FOR.
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 9: Wbc.
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 3: Correct, yeah, yeah there's no. DOUBT i, Mean i'm sure
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 3: that they want.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 1: More AB's.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 3: Right you don't want To you wouldn't want to go
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 3: through your normal, amount which is literally it usually, is
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 3: first game you go, out get ONE A. B maybe
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 3: two may if you don't have to play defense another
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 3: inning before you get your SECOND. Ab, Okay i'll get
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 3: two the first game or the first sand second. Game
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 3: IF i got to go play defense another, One they're, Like,
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 3: nope we're not going to risk. That we don't just
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 3: go you can go hit in the. Cage but when
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 3: my family AND i went to a, GAME i think
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 3: we went to The tuesday game And cal had two
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 3: abs And i'm, like all, right we'll probably leave after,
• 1:27:24
  Speaker 3: this and THEN i wanted to watch somebody, throw and
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 3: so we'll leave after this. Inning and THEN i was, like,
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 3: well let's make Sure cal's not going to hit. Again
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 3: he hit, again and then he hit, again and so
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 3: we ended up staying. LONGER i was a okay with,
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 3: it but we ended up sitting sitting around and watching
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 3: him And naylor both actually get two more at bats
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 3: than WHAT i thought they would. Get AND i think
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 3: it is just plain and. Simple the guys want to
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 3: get ramped up a little bit more before it kind of,
• 1:27:49
  Speaker 3: matters because while it doesn't matter it is an exhibition,
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 3: tournament it.
• 1:27:54
  Speaker 1: MATTERS i, mean this.
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 3: Is the equivalent of The olympics for, baseball and you're
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 3: not gonna want to go out there and and you,
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 3: Know i'm just working on some things getting ready for
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 3: the regular.
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 1: Season when you have your, country you, know across your. Chest.
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah so THAT'S i kind of figured out the math on.
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 6: This so WHEN i look at so that's the, first, second, fourth,
• 1:28:14
  Speaker 6: fifth and sixth most played appearances in spring training.
• 1:28:17
  Speaker 1: Games the GUYS i just Mentioned so.
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 6: There's one of your top six guys that is not
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 6: playing in THE wbc that's getting the most looks in live,
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 6: action Cold EMERSON yep sixteen played appearances and seven spring training.
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 6: Games that's more than two per game that they're giving Cold.
• 1:28:38
  Speaker 6: Emerson also pretty clear to read into that that they're
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 6: giving him every opportunity they are trying To they are
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 6: trying to expose him to the best pitching out there
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 6: to see just how ready he, is how close he
• 1:28:54
  Speaker 6: is for maybe opening day.
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 3: ACTIVATION i think that it's part that and part we're
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 3: getting him as much time as possible before he gets sent.
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 1: Down both so you're covering.
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 3: Both, now you're giving the opportunity if he goes out
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 3: and balls out And Cole young doesn't for, example and
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 3: maybe you can all of a sudden thrust him in.
• 1:29:15
  Speaker 3: There and BECAUSE i don't Think Cole young obviously didn't
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 3: do enough last year to where it's like you are
• 1:29:20
  Speaker 3: written in permanent marker in the second base spot to
• 1:29:23
  Speaker 3: start day. ONE i think we talked to people and
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 3: they said.
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 1: He's in the pole.
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 3: Position BUT i think that he's Getting you, know Cold,
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 3: emerson you're not sending he's not going anywhere except For
• 1:29:33
  Speaker 3: TRIPLE a or the big, leagues and so you don't
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 3: need to send him down so he can get more
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 3: looks At TRIPLE a. Pitching he's going to be facing
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 3: some of. THAT i did notice a couple of things
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 3: while we were, there and then the week that afterwards
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 3: when they started playing. Games Cold emerson is one of
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 3: those guys that's on the reserves even when he's not
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 3: starting a game in spring, training he's on the reserves.
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 3: List whereas you, KNOW i WATCHED Jp crawford and other
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 3: guys just when they got done with their early work
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 3: or their infield outfield and taking some hacks and, cages
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 3: they went and got dressed in their. Head now they
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 3: don't even go over to the. Game they're not on
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 3: the reserve. List Cold emerson's a guy that even when
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 3: they're not gonna start, him he's on the reserve list
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 3: so they can get him in a bat or two
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 3: later on in the game if they. Want they're trying
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 3: to give him as many opportunities as possible against the
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 3: toughest competition he's ever, faced which is going to be
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 3: in big league spring training.
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 6: And usually at the start of spring training. Games, yes, yeah, so,
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 6: YEAH i hear your point that he's being used even
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 6: in reserves, sometimes which is adding to his plate appearance.
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 6: Total BUT i mean very first game he's in your starting, Lineup,
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 6: yeah spring training, game and they're trying to get him
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 6: looks against major league. Pitching they are trying to evaluate
• 1:30:41
  Speaker 6: him right now against major league. Pitching AND i don't
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 6: think he's gonna break camp with the, Club BUT i
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 6: think what you are seeing is them seeing just how
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 6: soon they will be able to call them. Up, yeah
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 6: it's gonna be his. Look is he gonna be sent
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 6: down to the. Miners he's not gonna face major league.
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 6: Pitching but it just feels to, me Maybe i'm reading
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 6: too much into it that they're looking for every opportunity
• 1:31:04
  Speaker 6: to have him get at bats against major league caliber.
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 3: Pitchers, well one thing we heard straight From jerry's mouth
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 3: And justin's both they were both, saying we're not going
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 3: to be in the business of holding guys. Back if
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 3: they Say i'm, ready then we're going to find a
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 3: way and you can do. That there's not a big league,
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 3: roster maybe outside of The, dodgers that you have to
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 3: be major League All star caliber ready before we can
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 3: bring you up to the big, leagues including The. MARINERS
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 3: i mean there's a couple spots at the end of
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 3: the roster WHERE i, think you Know Miles. MASTRIMONY i like.
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 3: HIM i like the way that he plays the. GAME
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 3: i think he's a. COMPETITOR i think he can go
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 3: out there and, grind he can play multiple. Positions but
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 3: he's Not his floor is lower and his ceiling is
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 3: lower than a guy like Cold. Emerson so if Cold emerson, proves,
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 3: Hey i'm, ready or if an injury, Happens JP's dealing
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 3: with some sort of shoulder, thing so that could be
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 3: adding to some of his usage in spring training games as,
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 3: well BUT i think it's more so of any way
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 3: we're going to be able to find out if this
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 3: kid's ready at the when we break, camp or if
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 3: he's gonna be ready when we need to call upon
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 3: him three weeks into the, season or five weeks into the,
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 3: season or two weeks into the. Season you never know
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 3: when it comes to injuries and. Whatnot we want to
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 3: make sure that this guy's gotten every opportunity to get
• 1:32:15
  Speaker 3: as much exposure to what it's gonna feel like as humanly.
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 3: Possible so they start making cuts. Here soon they'll start
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 3: sending guys down because they have like ninety.
• 1:32:24
  Speaker 1: Guys in spring training right. NOW i, mean it's like.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 3: Something it's ungodly how many people they have at big
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 3: league spring. Training they're gonna start sending guys down this
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 3: second that minor league camp guys start to. ARRIVE i
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 3: think Cold emerson's gonna be there for the long Af
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 3: he'll be there till the last. Cut and even if
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 3: they've already decided a week or two before that that
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 3: you're gonna start In TRIPLE, a they're gonna say you're
• 1:32:45
  Speaker 3: gonna start In TRIPLE. A you'll be down there for
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 3: the last three days of minor league spring training before
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 3: you go To. Tacoma we want you to get as
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 3: many at bats. Here we'll plan on seeing you at
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 3: some point this, season and you, know for the, future
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 3: you're gonna be one of our.
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 1: Dudes, well according To buster only he thinks the plan
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: is by Mid. May like that's the plan like right,
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 1: now without.
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 6: An injuries or slumps or. Anything well that they, ideally.
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 1: What he's hearing is they would like to have him
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 1: be major league on the major league roster by Mid. May.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 1: Wow that's. Fast, well it is very.
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 3: Fast it's very, fast and obviously at that point you're
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 3: just kind of looking into the natural order of. Things
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 3: is out Of Brendan, donovan who's on fire so, far
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 3: out Of Brendan, DONOVAN, Jp, Crawford Cole, young which are
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 3: the positions that he would play AND. DH i suppose
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 3: you could mix that in, there even THOUGH i don't
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 3: think he's you're going to be bringing him up to
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 3: TAKE dh at bats that you're figuring. On one of
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 3: those is going to be something that if he goes
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 3: down and studs out at TRIPLE a like he did
• 1:33:52
  Speaker 3: in his short sample size he had last, year then
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 3: when it's time that he's just, saying, hey you can
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 3: find army for. You, yeah we're going to have to
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 3: find room. Somewhere, now that's just they're just in. THERE
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 3: i Guess buster one's probably saying someone's going to be
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 3: opening the door to some, degree, Right Cole young is
• 1:34:08
  Speaker 3: going to not be because If Cole young goes out
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 3: and plays like a.
• 1:34:11
  Speaker 6: First Rounder Caul young to, PLAY i think it's not
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 6: cold or.
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 1: COAL i don't think that's. IT i really.
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 6: Not after what after speaking to them down, THERE i
• 1:34:22
  Speaker 6: Think Cole young's are starting second.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 1: BASEMENT i think It's.
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 6: Emerson to third and Then donovan switches over to that
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 6: super utility role where he's in the lineup every. Day
• 1:34:33
  Speaker 6: but it might be D, h might be, smoutfield might
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 6: be stuff like. That the guy whose roster spot would
• 1:34:39
  Speaker 6: then come into. Question i'll Just Luke rayley better not
• 1:34:42
  Speaker 6: get off to a slow. Start he hit a bomb,
• 1:34:44
  Speaker 6: yesterday he. Did dom Can zone better not get off
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 6: to a slow start with two options still in his back.
• 1:34:51
  Speaker 6: Pocket because if their ideal plan is for Cold emerson
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 6: to be ready By may and contributing to, this they're
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 6: not calling them up to play a bench, roll right
• 1:35:02
  Speaker 6: promise you. That then you know a couple veterans maybe
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 6: looking over their shoulder at this, stage.
• 1:35:09
  Speaker 3: And rightfully, SO i don't think that any of those
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 3: names you just mentioned to have done anything that warrants
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 3: them not looking over their.
• 1:35:16
  Speaker 1: SHOULDER i, mean that's that is a.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 3: Rare air when you get to a place where you
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 3: are on the big league roster and you know for
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 3: a fact that you could go oh for spring training
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 3: and you're still making the. Club this team has a
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 3: few of, THEM i mean they have more than a.
• 1:35:29
  Speaker 3: Few but there's definitely some guys that are on the
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 3: bubble and they know. It they look like they showed
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 3: up spring training and understanding exactly, that and they're gonna
• 1:35:37
  Speaker 3: have to go out and perform to make sure they
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 3: can hold off these.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 6: Youngsters young only has one hit so far in the,
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 6: spring but it was a.
• 1:35:42
  Speaker 9: Bomb it was a bomb about that.
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: Guy he was some taters, now.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah and he needs to mix in more hard, contact,
• 1:35:50
  Speaker 3: yeah and then the taters will.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 1: Come.
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah BUT i didn't know he had that in, him
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 6: but we saw a couple of them last, year and
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 6: his first home run of this year was, well four
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 6: forty three or something like.
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 1: That, yeah it's, Big it's.
• 1:36:02
  Speaker 9: Insane all.
• 1:36:03
