On Friday’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett welcomes his Friday guests, Jim Moore, Chris Egan from KING 5 and The Scout. Puck and Jim open up talking nonsense like usual. Puck explains to Jim what the Vedder Cup is and Jim is not interested. Jim wants to buy an electric bike and that leads Puck down a rant on E-Bikes…they aren’t bikes, they are motorcycles!
Puck and Jim then welcome Chris Egan from KING 5 to the show and Egan reacts right away to Jim’s story about going to Wrigley Field. Like Jim, Egan had no clue what the Vedder Cup is, but is excited to see what the Mariners do in San Diego. Egan is optimistic about the upcoming Seahawks season and thinks they have a great shot at going 12-5. The boys chat about the Seahawks cracking down on Seahawks fans selling their tickets to opposing fans. Egan and Jim like the idea, but Puck has an issue with it and doesn’t like what they are doing. Egan went to Arizona last weekend to move his college son out and was horrified at what he saw in his apartment.
After Puck says goodbye to Egan and Jim, he welcomes in “The Scout”, an anonymous MLB scout who joins Puck every Friday to get the inside scoop on the Mariners. This week they talk about the recent struggles of Ben Williamson, the red hot play of Cole Young in Tacoma, what does he look for right away in a prospect, Bryan Woo and his dominating fastball, he builds his perfect player with current MLB players and they wrap up discussing the upcoming MLB draft where the Mariners have the third overall selection and the The Scout details all the promising talent in the Northwest that can be drafted in the first round.
Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?” Puck reacts to the Seattle Seahawks and their new ticket policy.
