Wyman and Bob Seattle Sports

Bob and Dave are joined by Jon Morosi to discuss what the Mariners slump means for their MLB Trade deadline tactics, some names that could help, and what they need to do to fix the offense, they ask if Julio should be dropped down the lineup until he breaks out of his slump, and they wrap up the show by finding out what we learned today! 

Bob and Dave look at how Leslie Frazier’s experience can help this young Seahawks’ coaching staff and roster in 2024, they ask if the Seahawks talented roster can help with the coaching changes, they react to what ESPN had to say about the Seahawks wide receivers and offensive line, they look at how the Mariners and Julio’s offensive slump looks compared to the rest of the MLB, and they hear Jim Schlossnagle’s apology to a reporter following his flip-flop career change in Sweeping the Dial. 

Bob and Dave have their weekly chat with Paul Moyer to get his thoughts on what he’s most excited to see at Seahawks Training Camp, the youth movement on the team, and what he expects to see for the rest of the Mariners season, they look at how steep the learning curve will be for all the new players in the Seahawks defense, and they break down what they would consider a successful trade deadline for the Mariners. 

Bob and Dave construct their preferred Mariners lineups amidst their offensive struggles, they look at where the Mariners are currently ranked in the MLB, they break down which Mariners have the best chance to make the All Star Team, and they ask if we should be worried about DK Metcalf running routes with former Seahawks QB Russell Wilson.
