Brock and Salk Seattle Sports

We discuss John Smoltz's answer to how internal competition can help a starting rotation and why personalites matter so much in all of that. Then, Ryan Rowland-Smith and Brock discuss how the Mariners offens can improve and what Julio is struggling with. Plus, Ryan ranks the top 5 filthiest pitches he's seen.

Brock and Ryan discuss the success we've seen from the 3B platoon and how Rojas specifically has put himself into elite company with a hot bat and solid defense before being joined by Hall of Famer John Smoltz to share some perspective to what the M's pitching staff is doing and also how the position has changed over the last decade. 

Ryan Rowland-Smith (in for Salk) joins Brock to break down the Mariners weekend and how incredible this pitching has been to start the season. The guys are joined by former MLB catcher turned broadcaster A. J. Pierzynski to make a big statement about Logan Gilbert before Brock's Blue 88. 

Maura & Justin open the show with a quick recap of the Mariners weekend as the M's recover from Friday's meltdown to win back-to-back games and the series over the Astros behind more dominant pitching. We revisit the final John Schneider Show. 

We play a round of Buy/Sell with some Mariners & Seahawks questions before being joined by our own Mariners Insider Shannon Drayer live from Houston, finishing up the week with a RANKED: Brock's Top 5 landing spots for UW draftees. 

What type of environment and culture will Coach Macdonald have in Seattle as a first-time HC? The guys run down a list of cuts from his appearance w/ Wyman & Bob before being joined for another wild ride from Gee Scott.
