Mike Salk

ESPN's David Schoenfield joins Mike Salk to discuss the MLB all-star roster and whether Ty France was the biggest snub or not.

It's Friday, so Salk takes your calls on everything Seattle Sports and gets into a couple of debates today. Then, Brock Huard stops by to discuss who had the most impressive mid season turnaround for the M's? Plus, a Ranked themed around our investigation into Aaron Rodger's new tattoo.

Salk can't help himself regarding Aaron Rodger's tattoo and how it's being roasted online, but it's mostly about the podcast of his new girlfriend 'Blu of Earth' and how ... different ... some of her comments sound to Salk. Day 2 of the NHL Draft and we ask Senior NHL Writer at ESPN Greg Wyshynski to share what he knows about Shane Wright and if he will start the year on the roster.

Salk reacts more to what Jerry Dipoto said in his interview about the team's trade deadline needs and opportunities but ultimately thinks it comes down to 3 things: a competent 2B, another starting pitcher, and a reliable backup catcher. We are joined by Seattle Mariners Insider Shannon Drayer to hear her perspective on trade targets and if she sees it the same way as Salk (surprise: she doesn't). Brock Huard asks Salk who had the more impressive mid-season turnaround for the M's and gets into an argument over QBs.

Salk starts the show by praising what the Seattle Kraken did in their draft by getting who many considered to be the overall #1 pick Shane Wright, falling to the Kraken at the #4 spot. Salk is excited... but weary. The Mariners beat the Blue Jays & their bad pitching 8-3 last night and get back to .500. We revisit The Jerry Dipoto Show to now speculate what/who the team should target before the trade deadline.

With the influx of Canadians coming to Seattle for the upcoming Blue Jays series Maura teaches us some Canadian facts so M's fans can get to know their enemy and we all agree Winnipeg has the worst one of all. Another episode of The Jerry Dipoto Show brings us good news about Ty France's injury return (as soon as tonight), trade deadline conversation and how Jerry believes this team is deeper than they're given credit for.

Now that Baker is out of the picture Justin has a list of 6 chaotic, rapid-fire questions for Salk to answer on behalf of those who really wanted Baker in Seattle. Salk posts a Twitter poll asking fans if they would have wanted the Seahawks to make the same deal as Carolina and we take phone calls from Seahawks fans who share why they would/wouldn't want Baker. Brock Huard joins and concurs with Salk that it seemed a worthy price for Baker and shares his hot take about the Mariners future.

Salk starts the show by admitting he was wrong and taking his own L for believing the Baker Mayfield to Seattle deal would happen and says the Seahawks should have made the same deal as Carolina did. We revisit the conversation with ESPN's Jeff Passan to hear more about the Mariners upcoming moves before the deadline and Salk shares his life goal of wanting to write a book about the MLB trade deadline.
