Bump and Stacy

We go through the history of baseball and take a look at some of the teams that had amazing midseason turnarounds and made it to the postseason. Can the Mariners join this list by turning their season around after a horrible month of May and a rough start to June? // Four Down Territory: 1st Down: Ranking season!! Who is getting some love on the hawks defense that is well deserved? 2nd Down: What is something about Shemar Stewarts hold out that makes you understand why he may not want to practice? 3rd Down: Who don’t you believe? 4th Down: Anything from Kevin Clark? // What has been sticking with us from interviews of the week? // What I Need to Know

NFL Network’s Jeffri Chadiha joins the show to tell us his prediction as to how the Seahawks will perform this season and where they stack up in the NFC West. What are his expectations for Sam Darnold this season and how he will play with Kubiak as the OC? // What QB is under the most pressure to perform this season? // NFL Headlines: Joe Burrow acknowledged that the holdout of Trey Hendrickson has been a distraction at training camp. Pete Carroll says he will be splitting reps at RB between the three they have. Josh Allen says he would love the chance to play in the 2028 Olympics. Antonio Brown is wanted by Miami police for a charge of attempted murder for a shooting Brown was allegedly involved in last month during a celebrity boxing event. // Would it make sense for the Mariners to call up Harry Ford? The Mariners offense needs a jolt, and Ford has been hitting very well in AAA Tacoma. He could possibly play some outfield as well which would allow you to carry 3 catchers on the roster.

ESPN’s Kevin Clark joins the show to give us his early impressions of how the Seahawks will be this year and what the switch at QB will mean for this team. // Four Down Territory: 1st Down: Ranking season!! Who is getting some love on the hawks defense that is well deserved? 2nd Down: What is something about Shemar Stewarts hold out that makes you understand why he may not want to practice? 3rd Down: Who don’t you believe? 4th Down: Anything from Kevin Clark? // The Timeline: Giants WR Darius Slayton explained what it’s like working with Jameis Winston and it was hilarious. Is it bad to be a weird guy as a QB? // Getting back to being a weird QB, where does Russell Wilson rank in this category? What made Wilson weird and how much did it hurt his career on the field?

There is one expert out there that thinks the Seahawks could finish last in the NFC West, what has prompted this take? Bump disagrees and thinks this team might not be the best, but the Seahawks are ahead of the Cardinals overall. // Headline Rewrites: The Oilers tied the Stanley Cup Finals at 2-2 after coming back from down 3-0 to win game 4 in overtime, The Pacers look to take a 3-1 series lead on OKC in a pivotal game 4 tonight, It’s cutdown day at the US Open. The projected cut line is +4. // What have former QB’s said about Sam Darnold and Jalen Milroe? Chase Daniel thinks the Seahawks pick of Milroe was a great way to develop him and have no pressure to play right away. He also thinks that it was no surprise Mike Macdonald wanted Darnold after his performance last year and he has some edge to him. // The Mariners have struggled to have a complete game since May, why is that? This offense has been very inconsistent and have not been able to get a lead and keep it through 9 innings. When they do hit, the pitching has not been there.
