Brock and Salk

The dreadful Mariners offensive output this weekend causes Salk to ask Brock if this might be the worst hitting team they've seen during their time in Seattle. Salk ended up meeting and chatting with Julio's personal hitting coach and shares the findings before Brock's Blue 88. 

Salk hated that Luis Castillo started the final game of the Twins series because of how it juxtaposes against the stated philosophy of their pitching goals while the Astros are red-hot and close the gap to 3.5 games. The Kraken draft a couple Centers starting with Berkly Catton at the #8 pick in the 2024 NHL Draft. Maura takes us Around the Weekend of sports.

Another week, another fresh batch of Seattle Sports App 'Here's the Thing' voice messages and many of them are focused directly on Salk. The big topic of the day is Julio Rodriguez and we open the phones to let the Seattle Sports fans share their own theories and fixes for the star's struggles.
