Today’s Daily Puck Drop with Jason “Puck” Puckett and Jim Moore start off with each other taking shots at one another. Puck attacking Jim’s age and Jim attacking Puck’s weight!
They switch gears to the Mariners and can’t believe what Victor Robles did last night by stealing home with the bases loaded. Jim reacts to a soundbite that Puck played from yesterday’s show with Bill Krueger, who does not want Randy Arozarena back next season
Tulane and Memphis are rumored to be headed to the Pac-12, the moves don’t excite Puck and Jim.
Ryan Divish, Seattle Times joins Puck for his weekly visit and they touch in on the Robles mistake, plus whether or not the club wants to bring Randy Arozarena back. Divish tells Puck that being around Randy, sometimes you get the feel that he doesn’t want to be in Seattle. The offense and Julio have turned it around lately, lots of the credit has been given to hitting coach Edgar Martinez, but Divish doesn’t think he’ll be back next season. If he’s not back what do they do? The Mariners playoff chances are nearly over, Puck and Divish chat about what’s ahead in the offseason.
Finally, Danny Kelly from The Ringer enters the show to talk about week two of the NFL season and he and Puck talk about why offense is down so far during the first two weeks of the season. What is the reason? Geno Smith has been sensational to start the season and Danny and Puck rave about the play calling of Ryan Grubb and the usage of JSN and DK. The Seahawks getting set for the Dolphins on Sunday and they will be without Tua. Is his career over? Also, will Russell Wilson make another start in the NFL? Does Bill Belichick want to coach the Cowboys or Eagles?
Lastly, “Hey, what the Puck!?” Puck says goodbye to a legendary Seattle institute, the Wedgewood Broiler.
