@BrockHuard and @TheMikeSalk … should I pull the trigger on the Brock cards?

@MikeSilver @TheAthletic Great to see some excellent prose, @MikeSilver. Former journalist myself with several years in Yakima and Seattle. You captured Kupp well. Great young man from a really solid family.

“When it ended with the Rams, we weren’t in a good place.” The bad vibes between the Rams and their Super Bowl LVI hero led to a confrontation between Rams and Seahawks coaches last month & spiced up Sunday's NFC title game. My column for @TheAthletic nytimes.com/athletic/69987…

@mccrystal_alex Um, no. Logan Gilbert anyone?

Is Alec Bohm the best player from the 2018 MLB Draft Class?

@Softykjr Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.

I'm telling you, these Seahawk uniforms are far superior to anything else they have ever worn in their franchise history. And there is no close second.

My Oh (Canada) My!

@NickTurturro1 What kind of baseball fan has not heard of Bryce Miller?

I Cant BELIEVE You Trash MY Yankees YOU Toronto Blue Jays then you get 2 hits aganist a Guy i never heard of in the Seattle Mariners WOW!!!!

@TheMikeSalk Spot on, @TheMikeSalk. Looking forward to the show tomorrow.

It was not a perfect Seattle weekend and there is plenty to discuss tomorrow. But Julio having his moment in front of that crowd tonight was truly special. Incredible night at the ballpark capped off by seeing his joy at second base.

@JeffPassan No cap without a floor. No floor without a cap. Now, start talking numbers. You are welcome.

@BrockHuard and @TheMikeSalk, just was looking at MLB stats. Julio is now No. 5 in ALL OF BASEBALL in hits this year? Whoa!

@JeffPassan 50 for Dumper now. Wow.

Current MLB home run leaders: Cal Raleigh: 49 Shohei Ohtani: 45 Kyle Schwarber: 45 Aaron Judge: 40 Eugenio Suárez: 40 Junior Caminero: 39 Caminero is 22 years old and already keeping company with the best players in the game. The Rays have a true gem.

@TheMikeSalk Oh, and yes, Polanco to the IL.

@TheMikeSalk DFA Solano, let Garver DH and play first and be emergency backup at catcher. Call up Ford or Locklear.

@TheMikeSalk, my advice: Be confident and go from there top of the mound. If you can do local radio, nerves won’t be an issue. I was in media in Washington state for 30+ years and once threw out the “First Onion” at Walla Walla night in Tri-Cities.

Why does DK Metcalf want out of Seattle? Pretty simple, I think. He wants north of a $25m extension and he and his agent couldn't get the @seahawks to that number. He can ask for a contender. Hawks need not oblige.

@RyanDivish Leave the headline writing to the editors, Ryan. :)

Hogan Windish with a monster two-run bomb. He also hit a mammoth blast in Tempe vs. the Angels

@briantylercohen A plane crashing into the sea is a “collision”? A plane crashing in Philly is a collision? Crashes in Arizona and Seattle were on the ground. Not sure what you are getting at? Poor piloting? Bad maintenance?

NEW: A military fighter jet has crashed into San Diego Bay. This is the 6th plane collision (and 2nd military collision) since Trump took office. 10news.com/news/local-new…
