Salk is back from San Diego and is fired up about the M's and their two wins against the Padres, especially since he attended the game yesterday. The bottom of the order has been impressive, but Julio is still the story "even when he's not," according to Salk. We revisit yesterday's conversation with Jayson Stark (The Athletic) to get his perspective on what Julio's rookie season has been like before Salk says Julio should be an All-Star but probably won't because of the national view.
