If you stopped by Gasworks Brewing in Wallingford this summer, its minority owner probably poured your beer or bused your table. You might have even recognized him.
For Kraken goalie Philipp Grubauer, beer is a connector between his homes: seattletimes.com/sports/krak…

At 8:56 a.m. on Feb. 18, 2021, while driving on Interstate 94 in Michigan, Hunter Bryant's car slid underneath a semi. One story started. Another story stopped.
From All-American to NFL tight end to UW team chaplain, how belief brought Bryant home: seattletimes.com/sports/wash…

Fun project here from @WStrausbaugh …
We created a statistical formula to determine our top 50 Mariners of all-time. To kick things off, these players — including a few current Mariners — kick things off at Nos. 50-41. st.news/4fANswa

“It was a place of emptiness,” Adam Bernero said. “It was easy to think, ‘Maybe I shouldn’t be here.’”
Which makes where he is now even more remarkable. After losing years to depression, the M’s mental performance coach has converted pain into purpose: seattletimes.com/sports/mari…
.@seattletimes management has offered the union some protections around the use of AI — but only to reporters.
Management still insists it needs the right to replace other @SeaTimesUnion workers with AI.

Management is doing that thing where they say really dumb stuff at the bargaining table again
We're back at the bargaining table, where @seattletimes management has rejected our proposal guaranteeing @SeaTimesUnion workers won't be replaced by AI.
Management's position is inexcusable.
We deserve a fair contract now — one with real job protections.
