Summary

RUNDOWN

Mitch Levy and Hotshot Scott discuss their two-week hiatus, during which Scott attended a softball tournament in Ogden, Utah and Mitch shares a personal anecdote about being conceived in El Paso, Texas (both stories were soo hot). Grammy-nominated Ingrid Andres was NOT nominated for her National Anthem rendition at the MLB Home Run Derby. Where are the Seattle Mariners' post-All-Star break? Mitch and Hotshot debate whether the Mariners should trade for rental players or focus on acquiring long-term assets, emphasizing the team's offensive struggles.

Mitch, Brady Henderson (ESPN Seahawks Insider), and Brian Nemhauser (Hawk Blogger) discuss the Seattle Seahawks' upcoming NFL training camp and the anticipated Mike McDonald era. Brady presents research on first-time head coaches, revealing that 13 out of 37 teams made the playoffs in their first year under a new coach.

Mitch, Brady Farkas from SI Now, and Joe Doyle break down the Seattle Mariners' recent performance against the Houston Astros, which resulted in a tie atop the American League West. Are we questioning the Mariners' playoff prospects?

Mitch and Christian Caple discuss the University of Washington football program and the upcoming season under coach Jed Fisch. They talk about the team's composition, including the recruitment and transfer strategies, particularly highlighting the importance of the transfer portal in assembling the current roster.
