• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I saw myself on video for the first time doing
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: my power washing through my teeth to get the chia
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: seeds from my breakfast miscuit. Out is not a good look.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: It's not a good look. I'm supposed to I'm on
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: video on this YouTube now, But now I'm seeing myself
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: do it, I'm like, I look like a like a monkey.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: It is starting to dip.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: It isn't as secretive as it probably feels like in
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: the moment, like when you're doing it, you're like, oh,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: I'm doing this real under the radar.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah it's not. And then it's obvious.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. It's like, oh no, he's.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: It's good to stop doing that.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, making weird faces.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: It's a handsome man I used to be. I can't
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: be making weird faces now on television. I don't want
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: me the rest of my life, rest of my dreams.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: All right, good morning to you, nine o'clock hour, here
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: on a Tuesday. I hope you had a great extended weekend.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: And and man, here we arrive on a Tuesday. It's
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: already Tuesday. That means we already get the chance to
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: talk with Ryan Healey, former Mariner and now part of
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Mariner's TV and of course part of the Chuck and
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Buck Show every Tuesday at nine o'clock. Good morning to you.
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: Sir, Good morning everybody. It's nice to have the team
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: back together. Yeah, how was your good How was your weekend?
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Good?
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: Good weekend?
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Gat.
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was my daughter's birthday on Saturday.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Birthday.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: You had the most special the most special day ever.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: So I felt like we fulfilled our parental obligations there
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: and uh made the magic happen and just right back
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: to work.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: And how old did she turn this year?
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Four? Four?
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: That's awesome?
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: What an age I got? Four to two year old?
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: Now, that's awesome.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: That's a lot of work.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you for saying that. Ashley is and the
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Bar's part about those birthdays is that they're still at
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: that age where they love everything that you do for them.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: Ten years from now, she'll hate the party you've thrown
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: for her.
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: We skipped the party this year.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: We went Dizzyland or two weekends ago, and then we
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: actually just went to like a water park here. We
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: did a like a resort pass for the day. She's
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: obsessed with swimming, are now going through swimming lessons, so
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: we took her swimming lazy river. We had a great
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: day and made her some steak and French fries for dinner,
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: and she was living her dream.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Oh man, I want to I want favorite meal too. Yeah,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: steak and French fries and going to the lazy river.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I want to adopt me. Will you celebrate my fifty
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: fifth with me? Will you take me?
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll take I'll take a jog to the bar
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: with you, and we won't measure how far we run.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: All right, good, good, good, all right, Well, let's dive
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: into this. Man. Ashley and I might be the only
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: two people on planet Piggyback at this point, and and
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I don't prefer it, And I get some of the
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: I would change a couple of the things that they've done,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: but it just doesn't feel like a disaster to me
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: like it does to so many Mariner fans out there.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: So I guess I've primed you a little bit for
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: asking more of an open question about how are your
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: what are your feelings? Now? Two starts into the Piggyback experiment.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: Well, the honest angle from a former's player's perspective is,
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: you have six really quality major league starters in the Maritors,
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: right now, and that is a luxury, not something that
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: should be scrutinized. We know that the first, you know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: round of dis didn't go well. Obviously last night went
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: much better where they didn't have to touch the bullpen
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: at all, but there was still frustrations that showed up.
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: I know from the player's perspective, they're frustrated because they're
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: wired for one thing and one thing only, and that's
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: empty the tank and everything I have, and it seems
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: like neither of them are able to do that right now,
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: with Miller and Casillo. So I think it's a luxury overall,
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: the Mariner's frustrations and the fans frustrations, And I could
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: be totally wrong with this, but I think it's more
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: of the consistency within the performance of the team as
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: a whole. The roster that was crafted to essentially be
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: a World Series team and have underperformed in every facet
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: of how you draw it up comparing it to a
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: World Series team. So I think frustration just gets spread
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: to anything that seems like it's taking the team further
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: away from that consistency everyone's chasing.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I absolutely agree with that. I mean, and bad
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: weekend in Kansas City. And then so even though you
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: get the nine two victory, you see a starting pitcher
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: kind of I mean, he was very angry, visibly upset,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: throwing equipment around and the dugout after be taken out
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: after four innings, and so maybe you adopt that sort
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: of frustration as well. But in terms of a solution
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: to how are we going to handle six pitchers for
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: five spots, we talked for weeks that there's not an
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: easy solution to this, No, you know, and so you
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: knew they were going to be some problems and trying
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: whatever you tried. I mean, I can't even imagine if
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Luis is going to react that way to being taken
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: out after four innings, knowing beforehand what was going to happen,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: how he would react to just being relegated to the bullpen,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: just outright cast off the island. I can't even imagine
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: how he would react to that. So why the reaction
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: to it? Ryan? When are they not being communicated well
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: enough with or is it just I thought you would
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: change your mind if I was pitching, Well, what do
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: you think is the truth there?
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: I'll touch on this first.
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: I don't think he would show the same emotion if
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: he was just all of a sudden, you go to
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: the bullpen, now, okay, Like if that was the clear
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: cut and dry response, if you are now the long
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: relief man, meaning Casillo, and that is your role, fulfill
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: it to the best your ability. I don't know if
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: the emotions are as visible. But when you are given
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: the opportunity to start a game, which he has done
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: his entire very very successful career, and then he goes
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: out there and throws four shutout as you know, six
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: strikeouts and is grooven, you kind of hit that flow
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: state in the fourth fifth inning, that kind of cruis
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: you hopefully to the sixth, maybe even the seventh, and
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: then they pulled the rugout from underneath you.
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: That's frustrating. He was at the sixty eight.
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: Pitch mark, and we knew that they were trying to
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: get both pitchers around seventy. And this is the math
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: that mapped out for the Mariners. But like I said
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: earlier in the show, like you're trained for one thing,
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: empty the tank, go out there and pitch all nine.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: That's what he's preparing for. So when you're only given
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: four and you do the job to the best of
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: your ability when you haven't had a great season quite frankly,
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: but now you're in one of those starts where you're like,
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: this could turn things around for me, and now you're done,
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: you're mad. I've been in that situation where I've played
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: all eight innings at a position and they do a
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: defensive replacement for the ninth inning and you are frustrated.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: It's not okay to show the visible frustration, but there
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: also should be communication on clearly what is going to happen.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: And I think what we are witnessing right now is
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: a Mariner's coaching staff in front office that is trying
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: to make the best of the situation without having the
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: perfect answer, which is okay, but there are repercussions and
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: emotions that come with that. And I don't think it's
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: coming from an egotistical standpoint from the player's perspective. It's
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: coming from the competitor's mindset of this is what I
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: want to go do. I want to go help this
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: team win, I'm competing, I'm successful, let me go, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: then they take you out of the game. And that's
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: that's really hard to swallow for someone that has the
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: resume that Luis Castillo Happer has, so I understand it.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I wish they would have let him go five,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: give the veteran his qualified win and maybe that soothes things.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: Is he feel better if he gets to go the
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: five and gets the win last night and then you
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: go on to win nine to two or nine to one,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: because Bryce is even fresher, you know, down the stretch,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: and nobody has a problem with the piggyback er. We
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: gonna have just a problem with it no matter what,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: because it's different, and we don't we don't. We don't
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: exactly embrace different all that much.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: No, I don't think baseball embraces different, and I think
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: pictures especially have a hard time embracing different because a
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: starting pitcher is very used to a five day rotation
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: and each day, each hour, each minute has a very
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: specific task for it. Even if that task is like
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: hanging out in the bullpen with the team like that,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: that could be their task for the day, but they
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: have the time available to process it. Starts and one
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: of the things that I personally haven't loved is how
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: they're flip flopping them of which one starts, which one
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: you know, follows, which one does the piggyback. I feel
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: like there could have been a little more clarity on like, hey,
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: this is what you're gonna do, this's what you're gonna do,
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: and let's give this, you know, four weeks to see
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: how it plays out. But if they're gonna continue flip flopping,
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: I think that provides or presents more challenges for both
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: of them, quite frankly, and I think we saw that
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: from Bryce Miller yesterday, who came out and did the
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: postgame interview and was excited you gotta do the dance
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: of the infielders and celebrate to win, but also like
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: the frustration of yeah, man, I've never done that. It
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: was really weird playing catch and getting loose in the bullpen.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: I wasn't able to do my normal long toss. Like
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: there's frustration, and you can hear the pauses. You know
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: that he has the questions of just like thinking of
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: should I say this, Should I say what I really
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: feel right now? And he was honest and vulnerable posts
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: ask me, and I appreciated it because I don't want
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: you to lie and sugarcoat this for me. He always
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: brought it back to the team in winning matters more
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: than anything, and I know that's true for this locker room,
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: but I also know that he's feeling frustration, and that's okay.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: He's a human as well.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: So from Ryan Heay's perspective, what is the solution for
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: next time? Do we piggyback three? Do we do it
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: one more time and maybe learn another lesson from it
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: and apply that to the next time around. Do we
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: go to the six man rotation because we just don't
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: want these starting pitchers being angry and upset. Or do
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: we make a decision, a hard decision to relegate one
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: to the bullpen going forward?
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: I don't think there's been enough to relegate one to
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: the bullpen quite frankly, I feel like both piggybacks have
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: been successful from the pitching side. What went wrong, in
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: my opinion, is that the plan can change based off
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: of what the game is showing you, and I do
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: believe that there can be some slight alterations to that
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: of Hey, Luis, maybe you're not gonna pitch the ninth
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: inning today because our offense only decide to get one
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: hit and score one run on a fielder's choice, and
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: we're gonna we're gonna bring in our closer here because
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: this one nothing game matters a lot. And I'm not
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: a manager. I'm not a big league manager. That's a
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: tough job. But that was the first piggyback, and of
• 10:37
  Speaker 4: course that's the situation that they were thrown in as
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: a coaching staff. That's tough, and I hope that that's
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: a learning lesson that they make adjustments moving forward. But
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: I have seen the piggyback be successful in the two
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: opportunities they've had so far from the pitching side, and
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: it's a lot easier to stomach this process when the
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: offense does what it does last night and scores a
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: lot of runs and gives the pitching staff coaching staffs
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: and breathing rooms. So let's make sure the the challenge
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: here or I don't even want to say the blame,
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: but the you know, the workload is shared amongst the roster,
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: not just the two guys that are in uncomfortable situations
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: right now.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you. I agree with one hundred percent.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: I mean Miller and Castillo in these two games two
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: point one two.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: E r A.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I mean phenomenal. Yeah, exactly. Ryan Healy is with us.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: He joins us every Tuesday. Let's talk about that offense.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: We got a lot of ground to cover here, so
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: let's get into the offense. Obviously still not consistently humming.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: They've been one hit far too many times here as
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: of late, and against lefties Ryan, I mean, it just
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: seems night and day a difference between the two lineups
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and their production. So what's what gives? What's the problem here?
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: I'd have to deep dive the numbers, but at this
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: point I don't even want to deep dive the numbers
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: because I know what they look like against left handed pitching.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: I just think there's there's certain nuances to a baseball
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: season that can linger, and something that wasn't a problem
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: can all of a sudden be presented as a problem,
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden players feel more pressure,
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: and you think about the opportunities for the right handed
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, the left handed pitching lineup to go face
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: a left handed pitcher. All the righty's that don't play consistently,
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: it's really hard to have consistent timing. Major league pitchers
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: are really really good. All of these things are just
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: reasons and excuses to why they're not getting the job done.
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: But unfortunately, Major leagues is a place where you got
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: to get the job done, and they find someone else
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: that will that's got to get better. There are a
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: lot of bright spots throughout this. It's just really tough
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: when all of a sudden, one through nine disappear for
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: a game and you get one hit, and you're playing
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: a team with the Royals that play pretty sound defense
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: and don't give away free outs, and then you're taking
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: away or giving them free outs, meeting the Mariners on
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: the bases, running into outs and situations. We saw that
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: last night where when the Athletics gave the Mariners a
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: couple outs, gave them a couple free bases, all of
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: a sudden, that third inning blew up in a couple
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: of home runs, but the game.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: Out of reach.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: You felt that a little bit over the weekend, especially
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: on Saturday.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: I think it's just a compound effect.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: But I think there are some right handed bats that
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: are in the platoon role right now that aren't able
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: to get comfortable because they're not playing enough. And I
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: know they're trying to find ways to stay locked in
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: and get their timing down in the.
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: Cage, but it's just not the same.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: There's nothing that can really replicate what that picture's gonna
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: do to you on the mound, And when you're not
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: getting opportunities consistently, you're really stepping up their hope.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: And at that point, well, they're obviously are going to
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: give them more time, But how much more time.
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: Do you give this? It's gonna be at least the
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: first half.
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: And I've seen what fans are saying or asking for
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: from different moves and such, so I'm not a loof
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: to it. I do think there's been commitments made from
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: the front office to this is our roster, and there's
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: been a lot of roster change and turnover with injuries
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: that happened over the last four to six weeks. The
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: last thing they want to do is ruffle feathers. At
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: this point, it's still May at the end of May,
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: but I think this goes through June at the very least,
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: and then they all surp break. That's when decisions will
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: start to get the crunch time. The really nice thing
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: for the Mariners is that the AL West is pretty close.
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: They are playing the division leaders right now. When they
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: took Game one of this series, they could be flying
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: back to Seattle on Thursday this week and or Wednesday
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: this week and feeling pretty good about where they stand,
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: and maybe some of those conversations can can die down a.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: Little bit, but we'll have to wait and see.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: Man, there's a lot to discuss with JP Crawford. Let
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: me start here. I don't know how often we've seen
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: in major leagues just somebody kind of self demote themselves
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: in the middle of the year. I'm a shortstop, but
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: I think it's better for the team that Colt plays short.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: I can move to third. So just the gesture, I mean,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: some people, some cynics found that Hollow. Ashley and I
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: were touched by it, kind of moved by it. What
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: was your reaction to JP Crawford saying, give the job
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: to Colt and I'll find another way to contribute to
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: this team.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: That is the furthest thing from Hollow. That is the
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: most self aware and selfless thing that you can do
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: as a major league player. To have the big picture
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: perspective of where you are at person in your career
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: of meeting JP Crawford, where the organization is moving directionally
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: with the contract that was given to Emerson or earned
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: by Emerson, and understanding when that transition could happen, whether
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: it's right now, next year, end of this year. He
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: has no idea and the only thing that he wants
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: to say, and I heard Colt Emerson talking about this,
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: is the veterans in this clubhouse have done such a
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: good job of making me, I mean Cole Emerson feel
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: comfortable here, like I belong regardless of the contract, because
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: they know that I can contribute. He didn't say that exactly,
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: but that's the reason. If this Mariner's team is going
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: to go where they want to go, they have to
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: have the rookies feel comfortable enough to compete.
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: And be themselves. This is not hollow.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: This is JP having self awareness saying I might not
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: be the best shortstop available to our team any longer.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: And if that's the case, then how can I still
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: add value? Because he's an on base machine, hit a
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: home run last night, has productive and quality bats, is
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: a clutch hitter for this team. But if he's not
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: the guy anymore, and maybe Colt can be, he's willing
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: to take that side step to third base if it
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: helps the team win more.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: Is what I heard from it.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: I don't see an arm that can make a throw
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: from short consistently. I don't see an arm that can
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: make a throw from third either consistently you've played the
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: hot corner. You know how many times that you've been
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: demanded of making that long throw without much time across
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: the enfield. Do you think, I mean, does he just
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: look hurt to you, because I mean he is consistently
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: now just throwing balls into the river.
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Well, first off, these none of these guys are playing
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: one hundred percent healthy. I know JP has got a
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: couple hit by pitches off of that right arm and
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: him being a left handed hit or that right arm
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: is leading and no matter how many pads you have
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: on that throwing arm, like, you can still find some
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: soft spots in there. I think he's gotten smoked in
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: the tricep a little bit. I think he got one
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: and like the lower lat and all of those muscles
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: were contributing to throwing. I think JP always contributed his
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: arm strength to his footwork through the baseball, and that's
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: hard to do it third base with just how quickly the.
• 17:18
  Speaker 5: Ball gets on you. But it doesn't mean you can't
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: do it.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: I know we've probably seen some Brendan Donovan struggles at
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: third base this year because of the lack of arm
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: strength and the ability to have a rifle like Matt
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: Chapman where you can sit back on the ball and
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: then just let one rip. I remember watching him do
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: that for a lot of years, and it was really
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: frustrating because I didn't have that arm either. But I
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: know that I know that he would be serviceable over there,
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: but there are definitely some certain plays going to his
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: backhand side towards the line, and if he ends up
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: taking that negative route'd be tough. But I don't remember
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: Kyle Seger having an absolute cannon over there. He was
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: just really good at moving through the baseball. Then his
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: transfer was super clean, and also he was just beyond
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: accurate with this rows thrown from multiple arm angles.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: So it's doable.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: Are they willing to experiment with that in the middle
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: of a major league season when they're already under five
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: hundred I don't know, yeah, And I think that's probably
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: the biggest question mark right now, and the reason why
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: we haven't seen it executed yet it is because they're
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: uncertain right now.
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: As well.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: That you've been around the team, you've obviously been in
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: a clubhouse, you've probably experienced a little bit of a
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: different climb You've probably experienced a thousand different climates inside
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: a baseball clubhouse in your career. What do you think
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: what is your impression of what the climate is. Obviously
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: an underachieving baseball team, but still one hundred over one
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: hundred games remaining. You've got some roster changes that are
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: happening in front of everyone. You've got this weird piggyback
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: thing that's happened that no one's ever experienced before. You've
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: got Kyl Rawley still on the injury list at this stage.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: How do you And then yeah, your fans coming at
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: you left and right with criticism because you are undoubtedly
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: performing worse than what you expected and you're playing really
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: sloppy defense right now too, Ryan, So where do you
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: think that the clubhouse is right now in handling all
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: of these elements?
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: Man, A lot of barriers going up, is my guess,
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: and based off of being in that clubhouse briefly in
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: the spring of twenty twenty five, there were some comments
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: that we had in the media from Justin Turner that
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: was scrutinizing the Mariners front office for not making more
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: free agent acquisitions. And I remember walking the clubhouse and
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: everyone was just very guarded, and I understand why, because
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: when you have a lot of opinions from the outside
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: that are coming through, it can fog your brain up
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: a little bit. And quite frankly, what we're seeing frustration
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: wise from Miller and Castillos, because there's a one track mind.
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: My jobs go out there and compete and throw night
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: innings and help my team win, same thing forever of
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: the player in that team, whatever they're individual jobs are,
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: how do I go execute that today. The more opinions
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: that get in the way of that, the harder it
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: is to become consistent. So whether some of these voices
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: are penetrating that clubhouse the way that it might we
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: might think it may be. I'm sure there are some
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: guys that are affected more than others. But at some
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: point there's gonna have to be a switch that's flipped
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: of finding like the motivation of like, fine, you guys
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: want to doubt it's cool to us against the world,
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: Like there will be a uniting factor that happens here
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: at some point in the season, and then you're gonna
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: see this team all of a sudden skyrocket and go
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: on a couple runs. But you haven't seen those five
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: six seven game win streaks yet, and I think those
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: can really unite a team. I think everyone is just really,
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: I don't want to say, walking around on thin ice,
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: but they're all wondering what's gonna happen next, Like will
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: there be a rostermoval to be someone that's defaide, who's
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: gonna start the piggyback next week when the fifth rotation
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: spot comes up. There's a lot of question marks that
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: are happening. And then when you don't win, everyone has
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: an opinion and everyone's to blame somebody, And if you
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: were that guy getting blamed, you kind of crawl into
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: your shell and you're like, I gotta play better tomorrow.
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: The pressure is gonna build a little bit. That's the
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: luxury of playing Major League baseball.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: But they do it every year. They're terrible in the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: spring every year, and then they get ready with it
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: in the summer. So as frustrating as it might be,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know why they start so slowly every year,
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: and I don't know why they get so hot in
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: the middle of the year. But I think your team
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: was the last team that actually got off to a
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: good start. When you guys went to Japan, and scored
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: like a thousand runs in the opening weekend. I think
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: that was the last Mariner team that got off to
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: a hot start.
• 21:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I had that go.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: I don't think it went as well as you wanted
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: it to.
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: All I know is I end up getting hip surgery
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: that year in August, and I was non tendered by
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: the end of it, so it couldn't have been all
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: that great. It wasn't great for me, so it probably
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: wasn't great for a lot of guys as well. But
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: and that's kind of where my head has always been at.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: And it's hard for a fan to understand that. And
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of years and years compounding here of
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: frustration for Mariners fans, which is warranted. Please, as a
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: Mariner fan, if you're frustrated, please like you are validated.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: There are so many reasons to be frustrated. And I
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: understand that. And I guess what I'm trying to say
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: is the players perspective is that if they conduct themselves
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: as players with that same level frustration on a daily
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: basis and then try and go compete against another major
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: league team, it's just gonna get worse. So you kind
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: of have to pick a side and really just go
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: all in on it.
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: And I hope that. I don't hope.
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: I actually believe that at some point there's gonna be
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: that cohesion between the fans and the players when this
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: team starts to heat up. And I really believe it's
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: gonna be timed up really nicely in this summer, and
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: it's gonna carry them right into you know what, August
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: September really need to be when they can create that
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: separation from the rest of the pack, and then all
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: of a.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: Sudden, it'll be football season. Yeah, it'll be celebrating the
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: Super Bowl. It'll be a lot of.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: Positive vibes happening in Seattle. But fortunately the sports gods
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: up top are just saying, this is your time to
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: just wear it. So wear it for a few months
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: and we'll see it in the summer.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: I still expect them to win this division easily. I
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: don't know about you. I do as well. Yeah, I was.
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: I was looking up on the d Backs recently, and
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: the Dbacks are three, four or five games over five hundred.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: Guess where they're sitting in their division, firmly and third
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: behind two of the best teams in baseball, with no
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: hopes of breaking through. So for me, like, let's count
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: the blessings a little bit here as Mariners fans, they're
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: still in a.
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: Division where they have an opportunity.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: To take it and take control of it at some point,
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: and we're frustrated because they haven't yet.
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: But it doesn't mean they won't.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: They win still there, Yeah, they win to night. They're
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: half game back first place, even as poorly as they've
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: played recently and throughout the season to this point. So
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: all right, man, awesome stuff. Appreciate you. I think maybe
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: we have found a little bit of solution, and that
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: is that everybody loves steak and fries. So maybe the
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Mariners just need to have a little steak and fries
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: in a dinner. We can celebrate your daughter's birthday at
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: the exact same time throughout Seattle.
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: Wait, am I cooking for the whole team?
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: Now? Yes?
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: Sign me out.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the idea behind it.
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna need a bigger trigger.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: Oh I didn't know you were you cooked? Oh you
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: cooked birthday dinner? Oh I think I ordered steak out.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: You don't know why went and got steak because I
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: can spend.
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: Sixty dollars on four good filats and feed my entire
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: family with the bag of frozen French fries in the
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: air fryer. And I can save money because they take
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: them out to burgers and fries cost me one hundred
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: plus dollars. I made money that day, boy, maths, I
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: made some money that.
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: Day, that a boy. Alright, I love it. All right, man,
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: we'll talk to you again next week.
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: Can't wait?
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: All right? Ryan Aley joining us right here, former Mariner,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: so glad. Ryan Healy's part of our Lives now and
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: his segment is brought to you by Dinos Pub in Renting.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: So yes, next time you're at Denos Pub you're having
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: a beer, you and Johnson just look down the bar
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: at John Schneider and say cheers to Ryan Healey. John.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: I do that all the time.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and he'll know exactly what you do, Yes he will. Yes,
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: all right, coming up next. I've never done a segment
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: like this, and I don't really want to, you know,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: hide the children, because I just I don't think there's
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: room on my show for this kind of nastiness. And
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: yet I am surrounded coming into this week by sports smut.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: It's everywhere sports smut, first ever edition next on Sports
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Radio ninety three point three KJRFM. We've talked about the
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Mariners throughout, piggybacking throughout the course of the show. Today,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Witherspoon he can't possibly be far off in his negotiations
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: with the Seahawks that I just don't even believe it.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: There's no way that that.
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: Can even be true.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, doesn't seem right.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: So we've had a lot of different conversations. One thing
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: I really don't want to discuss, Ashley, and yet it
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: is surrounding me, and that is smut. Sports smut is
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: the worst.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it really is.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So I don't know, I almost feel compelled to
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: bring this up, Like I don't even know if I
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: want to, But you have to.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: I think you owe it to our audience.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, people like to. People love this stuff.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Whether they act like it in parties or not, they
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: really do, whether they want to mention it at church
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: or not, whether they want their mother to know. I
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: have no idea, but let's face it, they like it.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Otherwise some of these people involved wouldn't be as popular
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: as they are. So do you know this is it?
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Sophie Rain, all right, she's this influencer, and she's this
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: young person and she basically I think it's fans only.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: She just shows herself and you know, it's it's the
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: next thing to porn. Okay, but I don't but it
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: isn't but it isn't right. But she charges people.
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: To walk your like, do stuff around the house, wear
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: outfits and.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: Stuff like that. So anyway, apparently she's like filthy rich.
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: Okay, well because people that, Yeah.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: And so apparently she wanted to somebody offered because apparently
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: she is a she's she's chased. She's never been touched,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: even though she takes her close off for millions of
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: dollars every day. But she's never done she's never done
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: the deed.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: Okay, virgin Oh got it?
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you really didn't seem to be catching when I
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: was throwing down.
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: Well no, I thought I thought you meant like just
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: on only fans.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Uh No, no, like this period in life, Like she's
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: never ever done that, even though she takes her clothes
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: off for a living. So anyway, she apparently got offered
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: like fifteen million dollars by some football player who she
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: won't mention to, you know, change that situation. Interesting still
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: following me on this.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, isn't that okay? Yes, all right, it's like a
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: decent proposal.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Well, she said that she turned down the offer, and
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: then she apparently gave an offer like if I'm going
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: to end that situation, here's who I want to end
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: it with. Oh gosh, and it's a baseball player, okay, okay,
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: And so she didn't want to mention the name of
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: the baseball player because she didn't know if he would
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: go for something like that.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: Well TMZ apparently reported yesterday that we now know the baseball.
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: Player and who is it? Should I do? I want
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: to know who it is?
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: Brian Wu what that's the story?
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: Feel gross?
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: That's the story from TMC. No, you don't have to
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: feel gross because he turned her flat down.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Well I know he did, but I'm just saying, like, ooh,
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: that she's he turned her.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Down apparently, this is the report, and that he like
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: she was trying to contact him and he like severed
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: the whole like good for him, no conversation with her
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: at all. So he flat turned her down even though
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: she offered him fifteen million dollars apparently according to the story.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: But now maybe all of this is made up. I
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: have no.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: Idea, but this an age, I wouldn't put it past
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: it getting.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: Harder and harder to figure out what's made up and
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: what's not anymore so when our pitcher is involved in
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: the story like that, don't I have to go with
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: sports smut on the air?
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: Think so? I would think so, yeah, But I just yeah.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: I just think if you're offered fifteen million dollars to
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: do that, how after you've accepted the fifteen million dollars,
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: do you really walk around and expect anyone to treat
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: you with any respect or.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Do you just not care because you have fifteen million dollars.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: I can promise you there are a lot of people
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: out there that are listening to us right now like
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: fifteen million. And he said, no, yeah, I would, but
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: I think yes. The absolute only decision for Brian Wu
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: was to say no.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're like an everyday Joe Schmoe, Yeah, okay,
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: sure you can consider that, because that's a life changing
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: amount of money. Brian Wu's already going to make that
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: amount of money and he'd probably lose a lot of
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: money in accepting the offer to do that.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and who knows what form that would take and then.
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: And would she have to film it for only fans?
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: I don't know, don't want to.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Right exactly, But how about that? So this story that's
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: floating around all weekend somehow that I'm getting, I guess
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: it's because I allow Brian Wu.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: I do too, but I didn't.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so it lands in Seattle, all of this
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: nonsense and then landed in Seattle. Now again, whether or
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: not it's true or not, I have no idea, But
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: that's part of sports smut. You don't even really have
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: to have journalistic integrity.
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: Don't just make things up and say ooh gross, right,
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: so sturdy.
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: So then here's this other situation. I'm not done. Okay,
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: So now we get the situation with Jake Paul. And
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: you remember Jake Paul in his Olympic speedskating phenom wife Jetta,
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: and I went out of my way to actually compliment
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: Jake Paul, which I had never done in my entire life.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: I remember that, and I said, those two genuinely look
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: and love, Like, yeah, genuinely look and love. And I
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: don't say that about a lot of people, but those two,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's what it's supposed to look like. The
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: way they support each other and have fun, and uh,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: it just seemed like, man, that is a couple in love.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: I went out of my way and I don't talk
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: about love a lot of them. Right, they're divorcing.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: Oh man, they did seem like he seemed so proud
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: of her.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: And it's apparently because he's allowed her to sleep around
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: on him. What he thought, because he's allowed her to
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: do that, that he could then sleep with her best friend,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: oh while she was pregnant.
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: So we're back to knowing that the Pauls suck.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, so I should have never given them that compliment.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: All right, now we know although all is as it
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: should be, the Pauls are terrible people.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Yes, how's all this happening?
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Because people suck? Yeah, people really like
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: they do? Yeah, sucky. People are really sucky.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: People suck?
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And then's not disappointing one last one? Okay.
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: I mean the gig is up on the Kardashians, right, Like,
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: why wouldn't anyone that has anything going for them run
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: as fast as they can the other way?
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: I would think they would.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: And yet they are apparently locking up all of the
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: best young actors in Hollywood at this point. Oh so
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: like the two big brightest young names are Timothy Shall
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: Calamy and Elordi Jacob Ali, both dating the Jenner girls. Yeah.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: And then over the weekend, Michael B. Jordan's the other
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: hot actor out there, and now he's being linked to Chloe.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: Oh wow, I did not hear that one.
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: Who would date Chloe?
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: And then Kim's dating Lewis Hamilton, the racer European racer.
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Oh whatever she can ruin his career. I don't care.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but don't ruin our actors.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Why would the best actors in the world be falling
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: for this nonsense?
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: I will say.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: I mean if I showed up at Christmas this year
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: and my dad was dating Chloe Kardashian, I'd be like,
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: what are you thinking, old man? That would be quite
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: much less Michael B. Jordan, who's got the world by
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: the string right now, run the other way as fast
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: as you possibly can. What is the deal with sports
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: mut here on this Tuesday.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: That's a valid question. I had not heard of I
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: had not heard about Michael B.
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Jordan.
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: I knew about a Lord, and I knew about Shalome.
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: I will say the two Jenner girls seem to be
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: more or Nope, I they're better than.
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: The Kardashian side of the family.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: I don't think so.
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: I think they are because they they aren't always trying to.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Well, maybe they're also young. As soon as they start
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: getting desperate, they'll start doing dumber things.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: Well, there's always that chance.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: What on earth?
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: But Kylie's already a billionaire because of her makeup?
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: I get it. But why on Earth when you've got
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: that much going for it would you get It's not
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: like they're the only pretty girls out there.
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: I don't know. They must have something magical.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think they do. I think some bad advice
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: is being given, maybe to our best young actors, and
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: that is a bad industry to begin with.
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like we need to chew you up and spitch
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: you out.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: It will We need to protect and preserve the ones
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: that are actually good at it.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sorry you're what you're saying.
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: I appreciate the fill in on the sports smile.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: I dragged you into the gutter. I dragged you into
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: the gutter. Uh, and I feel bad about it, but
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: pull ourselves out. Okay, all right? Coming up next, one

  Speaker 2: from the five on nine. You owe the listener's local
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: sports mutt.
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: You're the show of smut. If we don't get our
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: smut from you, who will we get it from. Leave
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: up this smutty work.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: I got another on Nick Allen tweet it out too,
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: like I really like the sports.
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's smutty with it.
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: There's an appetite for it, whether we want to admit
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: it or not.
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: That is the truth.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I will do it again, but
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: today I felt compelled.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Yes, very good for you. So there was a story
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: about Dayton Price. I don't know if you've heard this.
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: Dayton Price is a golfer. He played golf at the
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: University of Southwest Yeah, University of the Southwest. He was
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: in a van carrying his golf teammates and his coach
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: four years ago. They were hit by a truck and
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: six of his teammates and his coach were killed. He survived,
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: and he just this past weekend played in his first
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: golf tournament again four years later. And there's an incredible
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: interview going on out there. I was reading the article
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: on golf dot com and it's got a link to
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: the article or to the interview there, but well Worth
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: thread well Worth to listen to just hear his story
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: and what he's accomplished.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, he said, you know, he never cried so.
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: Much as when he was in the hospital, and he
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: just kept thinking, like he'd look at his legs. He's like,
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: my legs are ruined, my legs are wrecked. He never
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: thought he was gonna do much, let alone go back
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: to golf. And he played on the Canadian Tour this
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: past weekend. So pretty incredible story.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, unreal. I think maybe he was interviewed today.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: I heard on the way.
• 38:19
  Speaker 3: Yes, he was on I don't remember which station now,
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: but I.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: Ran out of time because I was yeah in the
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: building at point, so I didn't I didn't get to
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: hear the story, but yeah, he's making the rounds.
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: It sounds yeah, well worth a read at least, so
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: check it out.
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, incredible, Yeah, incredible story. I was going to
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: slip this in at some point to it's a really
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: minor note. It really is, but I wouldn't be surprised
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: if this happens. The Los Angeles Dodgers in order to
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: make room for Key k Hernandez cut a guy by
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: the name of Santiago Espinal. Okay, and he's not a
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: world difference maker, but considering Leo Revos was supposed to
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: fill a role for the Mariners earlier this year and
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: he did not, might be something to keep your eye on. Yes,
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: he got dfaid and the Dodgers loved him in spring,
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: but he can't make that team right now now that
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: they're getting some guys off the injury list, so they
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: d fad him. He's going to get picked up by somebody.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: Maybe he doesn't even make it down the waiver wire
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: long enough to reach the Mariners, but right now it
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: kind of feels like we need an infielder that can
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: play third and short and second and switch hit.
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: Wouldn't be bad.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know, Patrick Wisdom's got his limitations. Maybe
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: we could use that utility player. And I don't trust
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: bringing Revos back just yet. So maybe something to keep your.
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: Eye on out there.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: I'll be keeping at least one eye on it.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, And I would also say, and we got
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: like a minut and a half here. I don't want
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: to react to stuff like this, I really don't. But
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: nothing that I ever say has anything to do with
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: me being scared of the Mariners.
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that is that.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: And just because you feel one way, I don't say
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: things for effect, I believe them. So when you say
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: the piggyback is a terrible idea, I'm going to push
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: back on that because even though I don't love it,
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: it's not my first choice. Miller and Castillo have had
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: a two point one to two era in those two
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: starts combined, and we should have won both games, and
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: hopefully we learn from them and then move on. I
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: do something differently.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: Right, And it's not permanent. Again, it's not permanent.
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: I would have left Castillo out for the fifth inning
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: last night too. Yeah. But to say for you to
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: say it's a terrible idea and that we must be
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: on the take for not thinking that. Yeah, that's absurd. Also,
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: platoons don't work. What are you talking about around baseball
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: for one hundred years? Ours aren't working.
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: Currently, right, But it's working well for the Dodgers.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: The Dodgers and the Rays had the two best records,
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: two of the three best records in baseball, and they
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: each run three platoons each. We only have two.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: I do hate it when people have an opinion and
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: they're just so anti something that when you have an opinion,
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: they're like, well, you.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: Must be scared to say it. You just don't want
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: to say the truth because you're scared the Mariners won't.
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: The only thing I'm scared of by the Mariners.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: The only thing I'm scared of is not being me
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: and not delivering what I believe is the truth. Yeah,
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: and so no, I don't love the piggyback. I don't
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: know if I loved any of the solutions that were
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: floated out for having too many starters for a few
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: too few rotations. That's why we had two conversations this
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: morning about how that started with don't you remember when
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: we spend a month talking about this coming and there's
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: not a good and easy solution to it. That's why
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: I started both of our major conversations about this today.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: We knew that there wasn't a perfect solution for this.
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: They've decided to go with the piggyback thing. I don't
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: think it's a terrible idea. I think it's a rather
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: interesting one, and it has not failed.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: And another thing, we did not make up the word piggyback,
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: nor are we saying it because it's cool or cute.
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: It doesn't make us sound cooler. We don't like it either,
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: but that's what it is. So I suppose we can
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: make up a different word, but then that would be
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: us trying to sound cooler cute.
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, If you don't like my opinions, that's one thing.
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: If you have a different one, that's one thing. Yeah,
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: odds are, you're probably wrong. I mean, I'm not saying
• 42:38
