Grand Salami Time
Grand Salami Time is a fresh, fan-driven baseball analytics blog and media platform that brings sharp insights, unique storytelling, and a distinctly Seattle voice to the world of MLB coverage. Originally launched as Late Night in Seattle by Robby Gross and Adam Jacobson, the project began as a local sports podcast and blog focused on the Mariners and Seattle sports culture.
Now rebranded as Grand Salami Time, the platform has expanded its reach to feature league-wide baseball analysis—combining data-driven commentary with personality, humor, and a healthy dose of Pacific Northwest flair. Whether it’s spotlighting underrated stars like Randy Arozarena, breaking down Statcast trends, or playfully calling out fan takes, Grand Salami Time is where baseball gets smart and fun at the same time.

CO-MAIN EVENT(S)
Mariners are 1st in the AL West.
Set the team record for wins in a calendar month (21). It had been done in 4 previous seasons, and the 2001 team did it 4x. Crazy.
The entire team is coming together. Let's pull some numbers for since July 1st and for August for: JP, Julio, Ty, Geno, Cal, Rojas, Cade, TEO
Latest they've been 1st since 2001
My prediction is nearing correct.
DAWGS season preview:
Cam Davis (RB1) injured. That's two starting RBs from last year's
nation leading offense out.
