| 0:01.3 | From the Quantum Fiber Studio, this is Brock and Salk on Seattle Sports. Brock Ewerd is my hero. James Buehuter just punched me in the kidney. We're going to see you what I'm in the morning. That really worked that way, Sherm. This is a show that has my name on it. It's kind of tough. Now here are your hosts, Brock Eward and Mike Salk. Hello. All right, an hour to go. Shannon Dreher is here. We have so many baseball things to talk through. I got like nine or ten questions for you at 9.30, Shannon. And then we have trash takes today, Mara, Lyle. I think we've got trash takes. Shannon, you want to help me vote on trash takes? I'm not wearing the hat. You don't have to wear the hat, but will you help me vote on trash takes? I can vote as long as I don't have to wear that out. Shannon will help me work through the trash takes that Lyle and Mora have will do that at 945. What did you hear from Jeff Passon? He likes the Mariners. That's for sure. That's for sure. He's excited about baseball. |
| 0:54.3 | That too. What did you hear from Jeff Passon? He likes the Mariners. That's for sure. That's for sure. |
| 0:55.4 | He's excited about baseball. |

| 1:11.4 | perspective. I know last year and the year before that because of the expectations that were put |
| 1:16.4 | on Julio and that he embraced, I think I've been too hard on him. I haven't appreciated enough |
| 1:23.9 | the five win. And he's going to get there. Yeah. Was it always at the right time? |
| 1:28.5 | And I think that's when you look at it and he's like, well, how impactful is he? |
| 1:34.0 | When you asked Jeff about that, it was about the sum of the entire season. |
| 1:38.8 | And so I have to, I at the end of my, at the end of the season last year, had to readjust my sides because |
| 1:45.6 | you just get frustrated when he isn't there on day one. But he still comes through. He still is |
| 1:51.6 | of impact. 162 game season. 162. And it's like, okay, calm down. Let him be Julio. Let him develop. |
| 1:58.2 | Let him get to that place. That jumped out to me also, and for some similar and different reasons. |
| 2:03.5 | I mean, your question was like, what was the question? |
