On Tuesday’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Jim Duquette, MLB Network Radio, John Canzano from JohnCanzano.com and a sneak preview of this weeks Sports Pit with Steve Sandmeyer and Matt “Stretch” Johnson.
Puck opens the show discussing last night’s Mariners game and the absurdity of Cal Raleigh continues. Speaking of Raleigh, he will likely participate in the home run derby and Puck does his best to dispel the Home Run Derby myth that ruins players in the second half of the season.
Puck’s baseball GM, Jim Duquette from MLB Network Radio joins Puck and immediately agrees with Puck on the Home Run Derby myth. They once again discuss the ridiculous season from Cal Raleigh. Cal’s name is being mentioned on Team USA for the Wold Baseball Classic. Puck says it’s a no brainer for Cal to be on the team. Puck and Jim continue to discuss the Mariners success of hitting on the road, the emergence of Donovan Solano, why no one believes in the Detroit Tigers and Fernando Tatis has found himself in a legal issue of his own doing.
Puck than plays a sneak preview of this weeks Sports Pit with Steve Sandmeyer and Matt “Stretch” Johnson where they discuss at great length the unbelievable season for Cal Raleigh and the legacy he is creating in Seattle and within the organization that might have him being the most popular player of all-time.
