8-28: Benton is in! Roxy Bernstein, Josh Lingler and Ryan Spilborghs

The Seahawks are in Kansas City and Benton sets the stage on what we'll see (and won't see). Did the Mariners blow it by not adding Geno Suarez? The Mariners have two tough series ahead, but then it should be smooth sailing. Benton just wants them to survive in Toronto and Boston. Roxy Bernstein, ESPN Broadcaster and Sirius XM joins Benton from the Bay Area and begins by telling us about the mess Jed York is in as well as the distractions the 49ers faced this off-season. The one word he uses for this Mariners' season it's 'head-scratching'. He does think they'll make the postseason this year. Roxy also gives us insight on the Blue Jays' season, which he calls a disappointment. We take a trip around MLB and look at the playoff-eligible teams that are also on the cusp. Mackie Samoskevich, Kraken Forward tells Benton what it means to join the Kraken ahead of this season. Josh Klinger, Chiefs Radio Network gives us a 'boots on the ground' look at the Chiefs as they host the Seahawks tonight. He tells us what the meaning of preseason is and why it's not exactly for the fans - it's for the coaches. Josh also gives us some intel on what the last month has been like for the Chiefs after their disappointing season last year. Ryan Spilborghs, MLB Analyst for Apple TV is calling tonight's game between the Blue Jays and Mariners and gives us his big picture take on both teams, as well as the matchup. One word he would use to describe the Mariners: inconsistent. The season: maddening. He still sees the Mariners as a favorite in the AL West.
