RUNDOWN

With Hotshot Scott in Hawaii, Mitch calls in Daniel O'Neill for a "bullpen start," diving into Mariners nostalgia, gym etiquette, and Luka Dončić's stunning trade to the Lakers. They debate the evolving definition of selling out, generational shifts in athlete branding, and awkward encounters at the gym.

Former Mariners CF Mike Cameron joins to discuss the surreal experience of being traded for Ken Griffey Jr., stepping into an impossible role, and witnessing Ichiro's legendary work ethic. He shares inside stories about Ichiro's hidden power, baserunning genius, and surprising fluency in English while addressing the ongoing struggles of the Mariners' offense.

Director Michael Tolajian previews We Beat the Dream Team, an HBO documentary on the iconic 1992 scrimmage where college players shocked Jordan, Magic, and Bird. He reveals unearthed footage, firsthand accounts, and whether coach Chuck Daly threw the game as a lesson.

Finally, Brad Townsend of The Dallas Morning News breaks down the Mavericks' bombshell Luka Dončić trade, analyzing its ties to Mark Cuban's ownership sale and the franchise's long-term strategy. Will this deal revive or derail Luka's career in L.A.?
