Summary

Cal Raleigh is doing things that have never been done before in baseball, winning the Homerun Derby as a catcher, having his father and brother participate as pitcher and catcher, and his homerun totals in the regular season. // Need to Know: The National League won the 2025 All-Star game after a dramatic comeback by the AL late in the game which prompted a Swing-Off. Now that the All-Star festivities are done, GM’s can now focus on the approaching trade deadline. NBA League meetings were happening this week and Adam Silver gave another vague comment on possible NBA expansion. // Let’s talk trade deadline! The trade market is not a big one this season and Arizona is looking like one of the prime selling teams with Eugenio Suarez and Josh Naylor seeming like good trade targets. Should the Mariners be looking for another leverage arm to help the back end of their bullpen? What position is the priority for the Mariners to go after? // Blue 88: What are Brock’s concerning numbers for Sam Darnold going into the 2025 season? With two 2nd round picks still not signed for the Seahawks ahead of training camp, who has the most leverage in this situation, the players or the team? What have we learned about Pete Carroll in his short time away from the game of football?
