How #Mariners GM was “Blown Away” by Josh Naylor | #SeattleSports

Did he talk to you about the future about, hey, what are your guys’ plans? How do you plan to attack the offseason? Was that ever part of the conversation with him? Yeah, we had a um meeting with Josh right after the season. Jerry and I flew to Arizona for the day. You know, typically when you have these meetings, the focus is a lot on the present club and there was a ton of talk about that and I give Josh a ton of credit. He had done a lot of homework on our organization, not just on his teammates today, but on the guys he thought might be his teammates in 26 or 27 or 28, our young players. Um, and had a lot of questions about them. Um, wanting to get to learn more about them. He’d done like a video breakdown on a lot of them and had like full writeups on what he liked about them. Uh, it it was really impressive. Uh, I was blown away. Um, we we could have sat for hours and hours longer. I think it was 4 hours of a a meeting that could have gone six or seven or eight. Um, and the conversation was very easy and everybody at the table seemed focused on the same thing, which is Josh being with the Mariners and winning a World Series. [Music] [Applause]
