It's finally here.

Baseball is back.

Opening day for the Mariners biggest season yet.

2026 and it starts tonight at 710. Logan Gilbert on the mound for Seattle. We got a lot to cover today and a lot of guests to talk to.

Joining us on today's show, John Stanton at 1030, Joel Furman at 1045. Ryan Roland Smith is hopping on with us.

Jerry DePoto at 1130, Gary Hill, one of our favorites at noon.

And of course, Mariners Insider, Shannon Dreher, joining the show at 1 p.m.

We have so many things to talk about.

Bump, how are you feeling? Are you as excited?

No.

Oh.

Can you imagine if you were like, ah, I'm over it.

I'm a Marin's detractor.

We're at the ballpark right now. You got the banner opening day, you know, on the screen right there. It's what are those things called again? Bunting. Bunting, yeah, that's weird. But, yeah, it's, it kind of feels like opening day, but not yet. You know, so early on in the day before the actual game. But yes, we are here.

We're alive.

And it's supposed to go down.

I think maybe it doesn't not yet. You know, so early on in the day before the actual game. But yes, we are here. We're alive and it's about to go down. I think maybe it doesn't quite yet because obviously there aren't fans here. We're at the park very early, bump and I and Curtis and Justin, live from T-Mobile Park. But you can see, like, opening week is painted on the grass. You've got people doing what I call the yard work, but it's much more complicated than that.

But getting everything ready for this, the pomp and circumstance of opening day.
