710 KIRO/ESPN

Well, we have our first indication of the baseball coverage (aside from Shannon Drayer)  as Mike Salk has just popped up on Drayer's blog while she is on her ST break.  Salk was formerly at ESPN Boston, (and their Sox reporter) and occasional has filled in on the national ESPN broadcast.

Bill Swartz is there, and back in January KIRO announced the hire of Owen Murphy as assistant program director. "Murphy was co-host of the top-rated afternoon sports talk show on WTSO-AM (1070) in Madison, Wis. Prior to that, he produced several shows at ESPN in Bristol, Conn. [Station manager] Ron Arquette and Murphy will select the day-to-day team for KIRO, hiring someone to handle the pre- and postgame shows along with a reporter that will travel with the team."

Salk is going to be an on-air host
