RUNDOWN

Mitch and Hotshot kick off Episode 338 with a chaotic Father’s Day recap involving mini-golf madness, stroller gridlock, and a player with a walker clogging the first tee. Hotshot goes MIA for eight hours and doesn’t even play. Mitch follows with two public floggings: one for crediting “The Twist” to Fats Domino, the other for dusting off a 2013 John Olerud story like it was breaking news. His fastball? Missing. Hotshot? Happy to point that out.

Dave Grosby returns to talk about his health battles, a rough ketamine treatment, and the overlooked value of opioids for pain relief. He still finds time to make a bold Mariners playoff case.

Brady Henderson checks in from Seahawks camp to explain why Mike Macdonald’s version of Seattle looks more united and less ego-driven. He breaks down Sam Darnold’s grip on QB1, the Jalen Milroe development arc, and why 2024 already feels different.

Finally, Brady Farkas flies solo at the Mariners No-Table. Seattle sweeps Cleveland, JP Crawford stays hot, and Julio keeps hitting — but not with much muscle. They break down rotation depth, bullpen leaks, and trade bait like Gino Suarez and Josh Naylor. The playoff math is still murky, but the hunt continues.
