They also outline three Mariners concerns in the bullpen, offensive production and Jorge Polanco, along with one positive in the quality of at bats. In Blue 88, topics include a word Mike Macdonald repeated multiple times yesterday, can the Seahawks fix the stat that doomed their offense in 2024 and what Mark Cuban would say about the SEC and the BIG 10.
