Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

How WSU is building a Pac-12 (playoff?) contender through the Transfer Portal | WSU GM Brad Larrondo
Q: How does the staff balance retention versus recruiting in the transfer portal era?
Retention is prioritized to maintain continuity and leadership, while targeted portal additions fill gaps in defensive backfield and other positions. The approach treats retention as primary and acquisition as secondary, with a coordinated effort to keep core players while strengthening the roster through selective transfers.
How WSU is building a Pac-12 (playoff?) contender through the Transfer Portal | WSU GM Brad Larrondo
Q: What is the overall pitch to a recruit about the Pac-12's playoff potential and the program's place in it?
The pitch emphasizes two dreams: football and life beyond football, the conference's reversion to prominence in the Pac-12, and the possibility to compete for a trophy and a playoff berth by joining a program that has rebuilt culture, depth, and a plan for sustained success.
Mariners pitching prospect Ryan Sloan discuses 1st full year in pro ball, pitch arsenal & more
Q: What was the biggest takeaway from last season and how are you approaching this year?
The biggest takeaway was confirming that his stuff plays and focusing on a process-driven approach to each outing, aiming to throw more innings this year while maintaining confidence in his pitches.
Mariners pitching prospect Ryan Sloan discuses 1st full year in pro ball, pitch arsenal & more
Q: Awesome, Ryan, thanks for joining me, talking through your last season, heading into your second full season as a professional baseball player now.
We discussed the grind of the minor leagues, the shift to big league camp, and the confidence the Mariners' development system gives him, along with specific adjustments in his pitching arsenal.
WSU Baseball is BACK in the Postseason | Nick Lewis Interview + Eugene Regional Preview
Q: What changed for Nick Lewis in the offseason to become the top pitcher in the Mountain West?
Lewis attributed a combination of added strength, better conditioning, and a refined pitch sequence, especially improvements to his changeup, which allowed him to attack hitters more effectively and led to a standout season.
