Jason "Puck" Puckett, former KJR host and Ryan Divish, Seattle Times, recap the Mariners recent struggles,  relying heavily on their starting pitching but lacking offensive firepower. The team's poor play has led to a decline in their standings. Julio Rodriguez, a young player with high expectations, has been struggling at the plate, showing signs of inconsistency and trying to do too much. The Mariners' core players have also underperformed, with the exception of Cal Raleigh. The Houston Astros, with their strong offense, pose a threat to the Mariners' division lead. The trade deadline approaches, and the Mariners may look to add middle relievers and hitters to strengthen their roster. In terms of injuries, Brian Wu is expected to miss a couple of starts, and there have been discussions about Ryan Bliss potentially playing in the outfield for added flexibility. Overall, the team is relieved to have secured a win and is looking forward to playing better at home.Rundown00:00 Well, a win is a win...I guess 00:51 Road trip issues...why?01:26 Struggles with Starting Pitching03:17 Inconsistency of Julio Rodriguez05:33 Surprise at Julio Rodriguez's Performance06:57 Struggles of Young Players08:11 Frustration and Pressure on Players10:01 Threat from the Houston Astros11:30 Potential Moves at the Trade Deadline13:15 Limited Options for Acquiring Pitchers15:21 Injuries and Potential Position Changes20:31 Updates on Injured Players21:05 Ryan Bliss Taking Reps in the Outfield22:10 Miscommunication on a Play24:20 Mood of the Team
