00:00Two, 14 batting average, seven home runs, 28 runs driven in, five stolen bases.

00:07Again, Seattle, another team, George, that you look at up and down and they all look

00:13the same.

00:14You know, they fired their hitting coach like what, a month into the season.

00:18Seattle got to make some moves, I think, on offense.

00:20You think Crawford is a bounce back candidate for the second half?

00:24No, no, I don't.

00:27I think he's a solid, you know, a solid okay player.

00:30Has done some damage with long balls over the past couple of weeks, but what are we

00:34expecting here?

00:35The whole team can't hit.

00:36I mean, my God, they just can't hit at all for whatever Seattle's worth.

00:41I've said it many times.

00:42I thought they needed two bats once they got rid of Teoscar Hernandez and let him go in

00:46free agency.

00:47Now you got Julio Rodriguez, their superstar, who's doing nothing, nil, nada, zero, zilch.

00:53This team needs bats like there's no tomorrow.

00:54They have the pitching, right, Castillo, Gilbert, Miller.

01:00I know there's somebody out there, Wu, when he gets McCurby, when he was there, I mean,

01:05that's a staff, probably the best staff in Major League Baseball, but they can't hit

01:09a lick.

01:10And Crawford's part of the problem.

01:11The only difference is he wasn't expected to really be the solution there, just being

01:15a solid baseball player, which in some ways is really what he's been since he came back

01:18from injury.

01:19But no, another bust here, I'll pass.
