Everybody's way here tonight. But 30 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 3: happy Valentine's Day. Happy on that screen. 31 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 2: Now we're all here, we all love each other and 32 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 2: we just love talking about the Marlands, of course, and 33 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: it is quite a week of information from the Marlands, 34 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: going from trades to DFAs to potential blockbuster trades happening 35 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: almost any second. But we'll see what happens there. But 36 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 2: I first wanted to get to Kyle and talk about 37 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 2: first the front office, because you had the opportunity to 38 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: talk to a majority of the new front office hires. 39 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 2: I wanted to get your impression of these hires, maybe 40 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 2: what you thought about them, maybe as you're interviewing them 41 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: and how you expect him to come out in this 42 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 2: new twenty twenty four season. 43 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 3: Well, thank you for putting this graphic up or I'd 44 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 3: be here all night trying to remember everybody that we've 45 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 3: talked to. But look, I'm really intrigued. And I have 46 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 3: said this multiple times this offseason, and I say this 47 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 3: to the fans. I've talked to some of you guys. 48 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 3: Look what they've done in the off season. We've heard 49 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 3: a lot about infrastructure, and infrastructure is not sexy. It's 50 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 3: not going to sell tickets. But they've spent millions upon 51 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: millions of dollars of the infrastructure of the organization. Stuff 52 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 3: that is critically necessary if you want to have success. 53 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 3: And it's not to say that they lacked everything before, 54 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 3: but they have now been given resources that maybe we 55 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 3: haven't seen before to spend a ton of money. And 56 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 3: I reiterate, I know that's not going to sell a ticket. 57 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 3: I know telling people that they've spent millions of dollars 58 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 3: on all of these people, some interesting people. It starts 59 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 3: with Peter Bendix, Gabe Kapler's a very interesting hire. Rachel Balkobec. Okay, 60 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: we see the list right but it is so critically 61 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 3: necessary when you talk about sustained success of an organization 62 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 3: moving forward, if you don't have the infrastructure in place, 63 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 3: to me, you're kind of winging it and you're just 64 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 3: hoping that what you have you can get by. So 65 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 3: I love everything they've done. I think it is very 66 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 3: important for Peter to bring in people of different backgrounds. 67 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 3: I don't think it was a joke when he talked 68 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 3: about getting unique in different personalities, and maybe those will 69 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 3: clash at times in terms of what they agree or 70 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: disagree upon, but that's how you kind of build stuff, right. 71 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 3: It's like seeking different opinions and getting different people's input 72 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 3: and you kind of filter it and you put it 73 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 3: all together. But they've made a lot of hires, and 74 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 3: they've spent a lot of money, and in my opinion, 75 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 3: it is so very important. And I totally understand from 76 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 3: a fan's perspective. If I get a front call from 77 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 3: a front office rep, here's why you should buy season 78 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:37,680 Speaker 3: tickets this year. Because we've spent a lot of money 79 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 3: and given a lot of people money you may never 80 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: hear about, you might not care about them. I get it, 81 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 3: but it's very very important, and I think they've had 82 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 3: a wonderful off season. We can talk about it, but 83 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 3: I'm I'm super pumped within reason to see what some 84 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,119 Speaker 3: of these folks can do. And so you know, again, 85 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 3: these are names that you make you people we might 86 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 3: never hear from them, right, That are people that kind 87 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 3: of stay off in the distance, but they're going to 88 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 3: be vital to this organization's success moving forward. So I 89 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 3: really love what they've done. Guys. 90 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, and with you know, all those names, do you 91 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 2: think there was maybe a certain mantra that you kind 92 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,799 Speaker 2: of heard common between all of them. Do you believe 93 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 2: there was something common that each one talked about that 94 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 2: could kind of pertain to the Marlins this season. 95 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 3: It's a good question, Daniel. I don't know. I think 96 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 3: what was common was that everybody was unique and different. 97 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 3: Like that's what I felt like. I heard that a lot, 98 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 3: and it was important to find people of different backgrounds, 99 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 3: not just women, not just quite literally people of the 100 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 3: other sex. But like you know, Gabe Kapler is a 101 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 3: name we've heard a lot about. That's that's a unique dude. 102 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 3: He told us he's not a beij wal got it, 103 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 3: totally get it. You to watch his Instagram you can 104 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 3: see his TikTok. He's walking across there like he's not 105 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 3: an ordinary guy, but there's something to that. You know, 106 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 3: I think he's gonna be here. Here's I'll give you 107 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 3: a perfect example of Gabe Kapler. I think he's going 108 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 3: to be critical and vital to the organization of their 109 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 3: dietary and nutritional needs moving forward. And nobody cares about that. 110 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: But when those guys are not eating PB and j's 111 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 3: and sucking down pasta every single night and they're you know, 112 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 3: putting good things in their body, that how you become 113 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 3: an athlete. Like, to me, that's like a part of 114 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 3: it that it's it's one of those weird things, but man, 115 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 3: it's it's important. So you know, I'm sure he'll do 116 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 3: a lot of heavy lifting there. I think Rachel has 117 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 3: a very unique background. She comes from, you know, kind 118 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 3: of strength and conditioning growing up in terms and then 119 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: was like, hey, wait, I think you could manage it, right, 120 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 3: he ends up doing it. So I think the one 121 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 3: thing I have found that has been common with all 122 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 3: of these folks, Daniel, is that they've all kind of 123 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 3: been unique in very different backgrounds and Venish coming from 124 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 3: a world series you know, title in Texas, So they've 125 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 3: got some From what I understand and from what I read, 126 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 3: I don't pretend to know it all. I've read up 127 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 3: on all these folks, like a lot of you guys have. 128 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 3: They're unique people. They've had a lot of success a 129 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 3: lot of different organizations. That's when you take people from 130 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 3: different organizations and start plucking them. That's a lot of 131 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 3: stuff that they've soaked in over the years too, from 132 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,479 Speaker 3: some very successful organizations. So that's what really intrigues me. 133 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 4: So just to add on to that, Gabe Kapler was 134 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 4: all around the fields today. Peter Bendix was was out 135 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 4: there talking to players on the field today. I saw 136 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 4: Rachel on her way out to the backfields with I 137 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 4: think it was Frankie. They're all around, hands on, very 138 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 4: much in with everybody, among everybody. But Gabe was there 139 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 4: from the first thing in the morning. 140 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, you're gonna and you know another thing, 141 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 3: I think you're going to see a lot of them, 142 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 3: you know what. You know what's interesting too, And you 143 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 3: asked me, Daniel, what's kind of common with some of 144 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 3: them they have experienced like big in uniform, right, like 145 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 3: Rachel's coming from the top step of the dugout in 146 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 3: a mind mine organization. Gabe obviously has that from Philadelphia 147 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 3: and most recently San Francisco. So like, I think you'll 148 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 3: see some of them even and asked Rachel, like I 149 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 3: just assumed that I shouldn't have. I was like, well, 150 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 3: I guess you're out of like a uniform now, and 151 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: she said no, Like if I like kind of getting 152 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 3: my hands dirty, you know, and I'll put a uniform 153 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 3: on and I'll go shag balls and I'll do that stuff. 154 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 3: So these folks are invested, you know. I don't know 155 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 3: how it ultimately turns out. I just love what they've done, 156 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 3: and I love that they've spent a lot of money 157 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 3: on a lot of these people in an effort to 158 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 3: do this thing the right way. I hate that I 159 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 3: have to preface it by saying they didn't do it 160 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 3: right before. It's not what it's suggest what I'm suggesting 161 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 3: at all. But it's just I love what they're doing 162 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 3: and I'll leave. 163 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 5: It at that, and I have go ahead, Isaac, No, 164 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 5: I have to agree, Kyle. I think more brain power 165 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 5: in that organization can only help. 166 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 6: But do you think that maybe a potential issue could 167 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 6: be too many opinions ever in a front office. Do 168 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 6: you think that could come and be a little bit 169 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 6: disruptive when operating in front office. 170 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 5: Or No, I don't think. 171 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, look, I don't think so. 172 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 3: Like I don't think so. Peter's coming from an organization 173 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 3: where they were functional and staffed on the baseball operations department, Like, 174 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 3: I don't buy that there potentially is too many people 175 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 3: and too many cooks in the kitchen, per se. I mean, 176 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,079 Speaker 3: I think you know they're there, and I'm sure I 177 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:14,439 Speaker 3: would love to be a part of these meetings. I 178 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: think it'd be really cool and fascinating to be at 179 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 3: a round table with all these folks as they start 180 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 3: to you know ingest information and digest things and what 181 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 3: is the proper course of action moving forward. I find 182 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 3: that part of the game to be fascinating. I know, again, 183 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 3: it's funny because, like I know, a lot of people don't, right, 184 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 3: Like a lot of people care about if I'm gonna 185 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 3: spend money to watch this team what I watch in 186 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 3: the big leagues, they better be winning. And I totally 187 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 3: get it. We're all baseball fans, right, But I'm I'm 188 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 3: I'm very intrigued by what they've done. Yeah. 189 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 7: The big thing too, is they're bringing in new minds 190 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 7: that come from very successful organizations. You look at what 191 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 7: Gabe Kapler did with the Dodgers specifically, I mean, he 192 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 7: had a great minor league system, good development, he was 193 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 7: able to bring up guys like Walker Buel or Govin 194 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 7: Lux et cetera. And then you have Rachel Balkovic, who 195 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 7: we'll see. I mean she she had I believe, Jason 196 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 7: Dimigez on her minor league teams, so definitely did something 197 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 7: good there. There's a lot of good backgrounds, and it 198 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 7: kind of feels like these new minds that you're bringing 199 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 7: in bring kind of some refreshment kind of to this 200 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 7: organization because what was what they had before just no offense. 201 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 5: It just wasn't working. 202 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 7: So you bring in someone like a Frankie Pilliery, who 203 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 7: I'm very excited to see what he's gonna come up with. 204 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 7: I liked, I was very I liked what he said 205 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 7: on your interview, Kyle, as well as what Rachel SAIDs 206 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 7: saying that she wants to be active within this organization, 207 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 7: not just you know, sitting around watching these minor league teams, 208 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 7: but being out there active with the players because that's something, 209 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 7: at the end of the day, that she loved doing 210 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 7: and obviously she's gonna do it with this team. So 211 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 7: there's a lot of good minds that they're bringing in. 212 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 7: I mean, Compton is one that you're bringing in from 213 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 7: the Texas Rangers that just won the World Series this 214 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 7: last year. So you're bringing in a lot of great minds. 215 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 7: And this was definitely something that had to happen at 216 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 7: some point. Maybe it was maybe not now, but it 217 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 7: was it was gonna it was bound to happen, and 218 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 7: now you're doing it with someone like Peter Bennix. So definitely, 219 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 7: I love the movies they've made in terms of the 220 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 7: front office editions and now Brandon Man who you're bringing 221 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 7: in as well with pitching analytics to drive line. 222 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 5: It's something that's really necessary. 223 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 3: In this organization. Yeah, and look, I think a part 224 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 3: of this is I have been fascinated by the hire 225 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,959 Speaker 3: of Peter Bendix because when you think about the Tampa 226 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 3: Bay Raisin, where he's coming from the way in which 227 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 3: they were successful for a decade plus now right, it's 228 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 3: like he knows the model of success for a team 229 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 3: that and he inherits with a very similar situation. We're 230 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 3: talking payroll, the way they're going to do things right. 231 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 3: He was at a place where it ticked people off 232 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 3: for a long time before they got kind of comfortable, 233 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 3: being uncomfortable selling guys at the highest possible value and 234 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 3: making really good trades and just pumping out talent by 235 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,959 Speaker 3: making really tough decisions and unpopular decisions. And I'm sure 236 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 3: there will be some of that, you know, like it 237 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 3: just to me, that's some of it right. All I 238 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 3: can think about as a fan, it's like they got 239 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: this guy, Peter Bendix. He comes from the Tampa Bay Rays. 240 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 3: Would have they've done. They've found a way to buy 241 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 3: for a world series title for ten plus years with 242 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:08,719 Speaker 3: very little what people would say resources. But from what 243 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 3: he has said, they had great people right, and he's 244 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 3: a people person. He wants a good culture. Skip wants 245 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,680 Speaker 3: the good cultures. I you know, I don't know what 246 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 3: more to say other than I can't wait to see 247 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 3: how it all plays out. Really, I think it's going 248 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 3: to be really interesting. It's it's going to take some time. 249 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 3: But I think Peter has stayed true to his word 250 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,439 Speaker 3: when he said his goal was not to come here 251 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 3: year one and just break the thing down, you know, 252 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 3: and we can talk about the team, but they've lost 253 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 3: two big pieces in Sandy al Contra and Jorge Solaire. 254 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 3: You know, why can't Jake Berger and Josh Bell and 255 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 3: a healthy Jazz compensate for some of that power? You know, 256 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 3: like they really have. I think they've I think every 257 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 3: move that he's made within reason. I think they've gotten 258 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 3: better as an organization. I think they've put some terrific 259 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 3: depth in the system, like true major leaguers that have 260 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 3: been there that might start the season in Triple A 261 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 3: and when they're needed, they'll come up and you feel 262 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 3: confident that they can play at this level. Like I 263 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 3: think they've had a really good winner. And the narrative 264 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 3: that they haven't signed a major league free agent, I 265 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 3: totally understand that. But my question is if they signed one, 266 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 3: If they signed one person for one year and three 267 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 3: million dollars, is the narrative gone. I don't think so. 268 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 3: Like I just like, what would have taken for them 269 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 3: to you know, not get hammered five guys? I don't know, 270 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 3: you know, but whatever, I digress, But you know, I'm 271 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 3: I think they've had a nice winner. I really do. 272 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 5: I think if they were to maybe give someone, let's say, 273 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 5: like a JD. 274 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 6: Martinez, a local kid who would almost perfectly replace Horice 275 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 6: Hilaire's production. I assume he'd cost maybe fifteen million. Maybe 276 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 6: that would shut some people up. 277 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 5: I'd assume. 278 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,559 Speaker 3: Maybe me probably, I guess. I don't know. Like, I 279 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 3: don't think they're done either. I think there's this notion 280 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 3: constantly that they've done nothing. Okay, I fine, whatever, that's fine. 281 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 3: I think they've made some really good moves, and I 282 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 3: don't think they're done. Like I think I think they're 283 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 3: going to go sign a shortstop. I really think you're 284 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 3: going to see them have a true major league shortstop 285 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 3: on opening day. Again. I hate that I have to 286 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 3: say this. It's not to be disrespectful to John Birdie 287 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 3: or anybody, but like, when you platoon that position, it's 288 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 3: very hard to win in the big leagues. Skipped them 289 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 3: the making job last year. We've gone over that in 290 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 3: kind of the situation. It's just very hard to platoon 291 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 3: a premier position like that. And there's a couple of 292 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 3: guys out there, you know, right for me a Metasaria, 293 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 3: when Tim Anderson or two guys I think the Marlins 294 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 3: are going to look at and I really think you're 295 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 3: going to see like a guy like that, I guess 296 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 3: maybe there's only two left at this point. Be the 297 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 3: shortstop for the Marlins on opening day? 298 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 4: What about Nick Gordon who they just acquired good wouldn't 299 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,479 Speaker 4: he fit in a bit at shortstop? 300 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 3: Yeah? I think so. I think so. And he's going 301 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 3: to be you know, I think people see that he's 302 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 3: played outfield, in second base, in a little shortstop, and 303 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 3: it's like, well, where's he going to play? You know, 304 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 3: teams and good managers and good organizations. When you start 305 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 3: to like quote unquote stockpile talent or whatever you want 306 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 3: to say, and start to have, you know, good players 307 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 3: and stuff of that nature, you find places for them 308 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 3: to play. And I think that's what you're going to see. 309 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 3: And what you're going to find is that if Nick 310 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 3: Gordon can put up numbers like he did in twenty 311 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 3: twenty two, he's gonna have someplace to play every single night. 312 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 3: And maybe I'm just throwing this out there, maybe that 313 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: results in a serious competition between him and Hayesu Sanchez 314 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 3: and right field. You know, I mean that why that 315 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 3: probably shouldn't be off the table if he's capable of 316 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 3: playing the outfield. And the Marlins pride themselves on defense 317 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 3: because they have one of the best pitching staffs top 318 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 3: to bottom in baseball, not just starting staff, but when 319 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 3: you need elite defense and premier defense, it's not inconceivable 320 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 3: to see an outfield of Brian Day, La Cruz, Jazz 321 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 3: Chisholm Junior and Nick Gordon running around out there and 322 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 3: making plays and you know, preventing runs from being scored. 323 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 3: So I think you're going to find that you can 324 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 3: always find a way to get good players in your lineup, 325 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 3: and I think Skip is going to do that. And 326 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 3: it's also it's a good problem to have that we 327 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 3: are chatting about this and I'm not suggesting that there's 328 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 3: ten nine All stars, but when you have to have 329 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 3: the discussion, by goodness, where are we going to play 330 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 3: this guy? Because I don't want to sit this guy. 331 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 3: It's a huck of a lot better than well find Yeah, 332 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 3: we need that guy, just please put him out there 333 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 3: because whatever's out there now ain't working. So I think 334 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 3: it's they're in a good position. It's a good problem 335 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 3: to have. 336 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, and something you and Steven mentioned on your last 337 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 7: episode was you know this organization is not positioned in 338 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 7: a way where these are kind of good situations to have, 339 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 7: So you now have many options to you know, Nick Gordon, 340 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 7: you could play all three outfield spots if need be, 341 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 7: and you could play shortstop and seconds. So you have 342 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 7: you know, now joined a Bride as well, joining the mix. 343 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 7: There we'll see what he's made of. And you have 344 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 7: did all Brewhan, I mean, this organization last year just 345 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 7: didn't have that debt, or at least they had the debt, 346 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 7: but maybe not the same production that you would have 347 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 7: wanted to get out of some of these guys. And 348 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 7: now you have a lot of guys who have been productive, 349 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 7: like a Nick Gordon, but all Brewhan had a very 350 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 7: nice Winter League and a pitcher friendly league, so a 351 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 7: lot of time take away from there. And Jonah Bride, 352 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 7: I mean, the underlying stats show that he's kind of 353 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 7: been unlucky. So you know another guy who will see 354 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 7: what he does. 355 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 3: Look, I think it's interesting you bring that up Kevin 356 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 3: and a couple of things, and you know it's surface 357 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 3: level stuff, but anybody can go to like Fangrafts or 358 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 3: something and look at this stuff. Two things that intrigue 359 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,360 Speaker 3: me bed All Brewhan and Nick Gordon are out of options. 360 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 3: You're not making that trade for Nick Gordon if you're 361 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 3: just seeing what he can do in spring training, He's 362 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 3: he's going to be on the roster unless he gets 363 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 3: hurt and he's to start the season on the injury list. 364 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 3: For me, the same kind of applies with v Doll Breuhan. 365 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 3: I I don't think this is let's see what we 366 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 3: have in spring training. I think if he's healthy, he's 367 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 3: going to be on the opening day roster. You know. 368 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 3: The one thing that I really have liked about the 369 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 3: spring that the Marlins have kind of put I'm sorry 370 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 3: the winter that they put together a lot of the 371 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 3: guys that they brought into the fold, it's guys looking 372 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 3: to have bounce back type seasons. I would remove Christian 373 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 3: Bethencourt from that a little bit, but right like Jonah Bride, 374 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 3: the numbers would suggest that he's been a bit unlocked 375 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 3: and he's a more productive major leaguer, and there's been 376 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 3: multiple other guys. It's like, if we can get that 377 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 3: bounce back, And it just reminds me of the Rays, 378 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 3: like they're just taking guys like that and fixing them basically, 379 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 3: And that's kind of what intrigues me. They're and they're 380 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 3: putting some depth in Triple A, you know, I mean 381 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 3: when you take a look, you know, Trey Mancini's another one, 382 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 3: the Marlins. They need a backup first basement, is that 383 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 3: guy going to break camp? Can he you know, muster 384 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 3: some of what he did a couple of years ago. 385 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 3: Xavier Edwards has options, you know, that's that's a guy 386 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 3: who might get option at Triple A. What a great 387 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 3: problem to have if if you need him. Jonah Bride's 388 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 3: another one. He has options. So nobody stays healthy and 389 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 3: you know, we can have the conversation the best team 390 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,440 Speaker 3: that they can put out there right now. And that's 391 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 3: all fine and dandy, but there's a darn good chance 392 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 3: that somebody gets hurt in spring training position player wise 393 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 3: or pitcher. You might see in Edwards or Bride break 394 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 3: camp with the team. Maybe they do anyway, maybe they 395 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: just play their way right into it. But as it 396 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 3: currently stands, in a world with perfect hell, you have 397 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 3: a pretty good problem on your hands, like having to 398 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 3: make a tough decision optioning in Xavier Redwards joanah Bride. 399 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 3: You know, so there's depth. I like what they've done, 400 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 3: and I really don't think they're done. I really don't, 401 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 3: so so I agree with you, Kyle. 402 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 8: And by the way, Hi, how are you. 403 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 7: Right? 404 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 8: Sorry for being fashionably late as I always am, but 405 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 8: just to follow up on what you said and playing 406 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 8: like the other side of this, right, I agree with 407 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 8: you that they're creating depth where they can, right yep. 408 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 8: But what the other side of this argument is of 409 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,959 Speaker 8: how the Marlins have constructed this offseason in winter is 410 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 8: they made the playoffs last year. 411 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,880 Speaker 3: Right, of course you were there, we were. 412 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 8: All there, and now they're bringing in guys that are 413 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 8: looking to reclaim their careers pretty much, is what we 414 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 8: can say, or at least bounce back from injury hampered 415 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 8: seasons or lesser showings than triple A. And what they 416 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 8: they really don't have is proven major league talent. They 417 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 8: really don't have at a lot of physicians, they don't 418 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 8: have proven major league talents. So my question on this, 419 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 8: because I know fans are gonna want to know the 420 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 8: answer to this question, is we saw Bruce Sherman come 421 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 8: to camp last year and say we have money and 422 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 8: we'll spend it. If he says that again this year, 423 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 8: I don't think fans are going to buy into that 424 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 8: because of how this winter has gone. So, how do 425 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 8: you win fans over? Fans over with the approach that 426 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 8: they've taken this winter? How how do the Marlins win 427 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 8: fans over and encourage them to come to Miami, courage 428 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 8: them to come to Marlins kicks? How do you do 429 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 8: that after the winter that they've had. 430 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 3: That's my question. Yeah, I think it's a very fair 431 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 3: question out so, and I think it's hard, Like, you know, 432 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 3: are more people going to show up if they have 433 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 3: a three hundred and fifty million dollars payroll? I don't know. 434 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 3: I don't have the answer to that. That's legitimately a 435 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 3: question I always ask, right like, yeah, yeah, sure, okay. 436 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 3: But so let's let let me ask you this because 437 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 3: I totally totally understand, and I think that is very 438 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 3: fair criticism. But and I was doing this earlier when 439 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 3: I was just monking around. I was driving around. To me, 440 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 3: when you take a look at this offseason, the Marlins 441 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 3: acquired Christian Bethancourt. Is that an upgrade over Jacob Stallings? 442 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 3: I would say, So you have Josh Bell at first base, 443 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 3: you have the two time batting title champion at second. 444 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:18,919 Speaker 3: I am fully convinced you're going to see like a 445 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 3: Tim Anderson at shortstop or in a med Rosario if 446 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 3: you put one of those guys at shortstop with Jake 447 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 3: Berger at third in an outfield at some point that 448 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 3: kind of features a Daily Cruz, a Chisholm, a Sanchez, 449 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 3: a Nick Court and something like that. And that pitching 450 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 3: staff with skipping charge who's no nonsense and he's not 451 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 3: going to tolerate nonsense. What why can't that team vye 452 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 3: for that final wildcard spot? And I'm not trying to 453 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 3: look at that. I'm not trying to be like the 454 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 3: eternal optimist. I would love it if they spent two 455 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 3: hundred million dollars and went and got J. D. Martinez tomorrow. 456 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:56,159 Speaker 3: And I understand that, you know, Tim Anderson might not 457 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 3: be the guy who used to be, but he's probably 458 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 3: a guy that would love a fresh start and just 459 00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 3: a breath of fresh air where we all understand that. 460 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 3: I wish they'd spend a half a billion dollars. It'd 461 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,719 Speaker 3: be really fun. That's fun to monkey around with when 462 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 3: you have that kind of money. But when I look 463 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 3: at what they've done behind the play, you get a 464 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 3: full year of Josh Bell and Jake Berger, who are 465 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 3: going to compensate for some of the power that was 466 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 3: lost from Jorge Solaire. Jazz has to stay healthy. I 467 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,959 Speaker 3: know we have this conversation every single year, and something 468 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 3: goes wrong and he misses seventy games. But if the 469 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,800 Speaker 3: kid doesn't, if he only misses twenty and he plays 470 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 3: one hundred and forty games, one hundred and thirty five games, 471 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 3: I think they're going to make up for the lost power. 472 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: I think they have a little bit of depth in 473 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 3: the starting pitching department, by the way, which was obviously 474 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:36,719 Speaker 3: a point of contention at the end of last year 475 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 3: when they simply ran out of it. I don't think 476 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 3: there's any way to being around the bush, Like that's 477 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 3: just my question, like why can't this team buy for 478 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 3: that third and final wildcard spot in the National League, 479 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 3: and again they have to stay moderately healthy. But Alex, 480 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 3: I think it's very fair. I think it's a very 481 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 3: fair question, and I don't try to look at it 482 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 3: with glass half full. I'm just looking at it realistically. 483 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 3: With what they're playing with right now, and I think 484 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 3: they've got a little better. They've lost so well, and 485 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 3: I've got to find the innings from Sandy. If they 486 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 3: can do that, why can't this team be competitive in 487 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 3: August and septemb Bryant. Maybe I'm totally wrong, but we'll see. 488 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 6: I guess the Devil's argument would be sort of, you know, 489 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 6: why for the third wildcards, Well, why shouldn't they be, 490 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 6: you know, putting all chips for it. Obviously you need 491 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 6: sustainable success, but they just made the postseason. Maybe try 492 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 6: and be second in the division. I know the Brads 493 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 6: are just unreachable, but try and be the first wildcard team. 494 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 6: You know, it's not just sneaking out of the postseason, 495 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 6: it's winning the damn. 496 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 5: Thing, you know. 497 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 7: And just to add on to what Isaac said, I 498 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 7: mean I think you mentioned this too, Isaac. I mean, 499 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 7: the Mets don't. 500 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 3: Look like they're going to compete very much this year. 501 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 3: National saw have another year left. 502 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 5: I mean it's kind of open. 503 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 6: There's a bit of a window because you look at 504 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 6: the other teams that didn't do. 505 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 5: Really well, actually, the Padres, the Cardinals, those. 506 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 6: Teams that they didn't get much better either, So there's 507 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 6: still another window for your wildcard hopes and maybe to 508 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 6: be first. 509 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 5: But and I do agree. 510 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 6: They got better, they unequivalently got better this offseason. But 511 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 6: I think they're just like one big move away from saying, okay, hey, 512 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 6: we can compete for the division. 513 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 4: And you see what sorry, no go ahead, no go ahead, seriously, 514 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 4: and you see what the diamond Back? What happened with 515 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 4: the Diamondbacks? You make it into the playoffs, anything can happen. 516 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 3: Look, I said this, six teams from the National League 517 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 3: make the postseason. Why can't the Marlins be one of them? 518 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: With the roster that they have? Am I totally wrong 519 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 3: on that? Like they can pitch really well, maybe not 520 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 3: just a third and final Okay, go just go man. 521 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 3: Like I think people underestimated last year the importance of 522 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 3: Skip Schumacher and the difference he made. Like I'm telling 523 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 3: you right now, and you guys know this, but it's 524 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 3: just a culture. It's just no nonsense. It's like, if 525 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 3: you're here in this clubhouse, we're winning like every day. 526 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,360 Speaker 3: It's the middle of June, it's a getaway day. You've 527 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 3: lost three in a row. We're winning today and we're 528 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 3: flying home. We're gonna go win the next day. And 529 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 3: that's kind of like what he's instilled these guys, and 530 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 3: it just gives me a lot of belief and a 531 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 3: lot of confidence. And I'm sure Skip is saying, hey, 532 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 3: give me a couple more guys, give me a couple 533 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 3: more guys of my pitching staff. I'll see, we'll see 534 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 3: what they do. They're not done. I know it, they're 535 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 3: not done. And I'm sure they'll sign a major league 536 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 3: free agent. We can put that whole thing to bed. 537 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 3: But I truly believe, even with the roster that they 538 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 3: have currently just constructed, there's no that that's like not 539 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 3: one hundred lost team. Sorry, it's not like that's a 540 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 3: very competitive team the one that they're gonna put on 541 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 3: the field this year. And again, Peter Bendex, very true 542 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 3: to his word, didn't come here and say cionar to 543 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,719 Speaker 3: fifteen guys, and I'm gonna do this the way I 544 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 3: want to do it, and you know, so be it. 545 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 6: I agree they're not one hundred lost team, but I 546 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 6: also don't think that they're an eighty four win team 547 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 6: against so just because they were very very lucky last 548 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 6: all those one run wins, all those clutch moments. Can 549 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,199 Speaker 6: we really bank on those things happening again? 550 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 5: That? 551 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 7: But then you look at Philly and look at that postseason. 552 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 7: I mean, the Marlins didn't have their luck at all there. 553 00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 7: I mean, and then you look at the wildk I mean, 554 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 7: the Marlins are the worst offensive team that ever make 555 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 7: the playoffs according to run differential negative fifty seven. I mean, 556 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 7: you can't bank on I mean, and on top of that, 557 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 7: you're losing core histal Eric, who's arguably your most clutch 558 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 7: player on this team. You're losing two hundred innings, two 559 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 7: hundred strikeouts of Sandil Contra. I mean, I really can't 560 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 7: see this team winning eighty four games. But they could 561 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 7: prove us wrong once again. They could have their Marlins 562 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 7: magic and have the most one run wins in baseball. Again. 563 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 3: Here, here's the other here's the other thing too. They 564 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 3: haven't lost a lot in the way of pitching, okay, 565 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 3: and they have really good guys that can pitch, not 566 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 3: just starting, but obviously relievers and guys that can close 567 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 3: it out. The way that this team is constructed, it's 568 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 3: really hard to find yourself down like three or four 569 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 3: runs at night. They're very tightly contested all the time, 570 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 3: and it's probably not an offense. It's gonna blow you away. 571 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 3: And I understand that they were lucky last year in 572 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 3: the one run win department, but they were in those 573 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 3: positions kind of because of the way that they were constructed, 574 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 3: Like we're gonna pitch really well, and we're you know, 575 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 3: if we're gonna lose, gonna we're gonna lose by a 576 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 3: run or two. And of course everybody gets you know, 577 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 3: their lids blown off once in a while, but you know, 578 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 3: there's a reason they were able to come back via 579 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 3: one swing in the eighth inning or whatever. So like, 580 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 3: I'm high on them, and I'm not trying to say 581 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 3: that they're going toe to toe with the Braves here 582 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 3: or whatever, but dude, like this team, I just feel 583 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 3: like the narrative has gotten out there because they haven't 584 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 3: signed one single major league free agent that they've blown 585 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 3: the whole thing up and they're no good. 586 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 5: I just stop. 587 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 3: It's a lot of the same guys and football players. Man, 588 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 3: Like they can pitch, they're good players, and who's to 589 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 3: say if they're in contention in the middle of this summer, Like, 590 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 3: can we discuss that they would try to upgrade the team. Well, yeah, 591 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 3: why you know, why not? They did it last year. 592 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 3: Bruce Sherman opened his pockets and said, hey, here's resources, 593 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 3: go make the right moves, and they did. Kim made 594 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 3: the right moves, and bellen Berger helped propel them into 595 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 3: the playoffs. So let's roll the dice. I don't think 596 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 3: that done. I think they're going to go sign somebody 597 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 3: that people are going to be very happy with and 598 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 3: let's see how it plays out. Man, they could have 599 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 3: fifteen injuries, the whole thing can blow up. They could 600 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 3: start winning some crazy games again, and all of a sudden, 601 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 3: it's the middle of July with the trade deadline breathing 602 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 3: right down your neck, and it's go time and it's 603 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 3: time to make a move. 604 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 7: And yeah, and even without Sandy, this is still I 605 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 7: was telling I think I've mentioned editions. 606 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 3: This is still a really good rotation. 607 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 7: You have Lozardo, ury Brax, Trevor Cabrera, but Edward Cabrera 608 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 7: still in the rotation. So it's still one of the 609 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 7: better rotations in the national Lee itself. 610 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 3: And maybe so let me ask you guys something that's 611 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 3: I think it's interesting. You bring up the starting pitching Lozardo. 612 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 3: It's assuming Lozardo's not going anywhere, Yury Garrett Rogers. I'll 613 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 3: say Cabrera lost at last. And here's why there's rumors 614 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,239 Speaker 3: out there that he's being dangled to Pittsburgh. So if 615 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 3: Edward Cabrera gets traded, is aj Puck your fifth starter? 616 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 5: No? 617 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 3: I hope No. That was a quick no. Why not? 618 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 3: Why not? He's not a starter, but he was in 619 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 3: the athletics. We're going to make him a start to 620 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 3: last year until the day the Martins don't. 621 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 4: I just don't see it. 622 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 5: You can't say it like this. 623 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 7: No, he's not proven yet, And I mean you still 624 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 7: have Ryan Weathers, who's who they say swing man. But 625 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 7: if Edward's gone, I mean you're gonna have to go 626 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 7: Ryan Weathers. And you still have Max Meyer, who I 627 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 7: know you don't like as the starter, Isaac, but Max 628 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 7: Meyer was at one point the top prospect in this organization. 629 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 5: And there's a reason he was. 630 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 3: I mean, he ramped up. 631 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 5: Really quickly through the minor leagues. There's a lot to 632 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 5: like with those two guys. 633 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 3: So I think I think, I think it's either Puck 634 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 3: or Weathers who would take the fifth spot. And I'm 635 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 3: super intrigued by aj Puck being a starting pitcher. I 636 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 3: don't know how it's going to go. Obviously, he was 637 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 3: one of the best in the country when he's in college. 638 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 3: We're talking some years back now, and you know, he 639 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 3: was very, very good out of the bullpen. Last year. 640 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 3: He struggled at times, but all in all, I thought 641 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 3: he had a great season. And there's depth, you know, 642 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 3: what is Max Meyer looked like in a couple of 643 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 3: months when he gets his feet wet in Triple A 644 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 3: and you know, there's a multitude of other guys, and 645 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 3: obviously you have guys in a pinch. You know, smelts 646 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 3: her non roster invite the one thing that they have 647 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 3: done that I do like. And as long as guys 648 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 3: non roster invitees don't latch on with somebody else and 649 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 3: that happens or whatever, if they can stockpile some guys 650 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 3: that have starts in the big leagues in Triple A, 651 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 3: you're just you're not worried about it when you need it. 652 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:31,959 Speaker 3: It just felt like at times last year is like, 653 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 3: where's how who you know, who's they lost him? Who's starting? Right? 654 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 3: Like now, it feels like there's some depth in that 655 00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 3: every team meets depth in terms of starting pitching. 656 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 8: But we'll see it's so many, so many. 657 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 2: Hold that fought real quick, guy like, hold that fought 658 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: real quick.

I don't know 679 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 2: if we had a flip flish. I wasn't I wasn't 680 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 2: told of that. I I didn't know. 681 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 9: I did go into it quickly for some levity in 682 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 9: here in a transition, and this is an easier version 683 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 9: that I think even Kyle could handlew seconds to ponder 684 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 9: over it. What we do, Kyle is that we come 685 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 9: up with these mystery players who are former Marlins players 686 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 9: that have since left there since they're doing something else 687 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 9: now they've flipped. And for this one, this is Isaac's idea, 688 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 9: but is. 689 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 4: Just redeem yourself for Jeopardy. 690 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 9: Yeah, but this one is a slightly different style. We're 691 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,520 Speaker 9: picking in the spirit of spring training. We're picking somebody 692 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 9: who's former Marlin that's now a non roster invitee at 693 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 9: somebody else's camp. Actually, this is yeah, ye. 694 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 4: Six year old left that's why thirty six left border 695 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 4: might need beach. 696 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 3: That is a record. 697 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 9: That's a new record for response time. This is Richard Bleier, 698 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 9: lefty from Miami Beach. Look at the same career numbers 699 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 9: not so good in twenty twenty three. Do you know 700 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 9: what camp he's in this year, what team he. 701 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 3: Is with Washington Nationals. That's right. 702 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 9: I don't have any national pictures of him yet, but 703 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 9: as a Marvelin, he's. 704 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 3: Got a lot of land up in Palm Beach County. 705 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 3: He hunts a lot of hogs. Shoot some right, bad boys. 706 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 2: Hm hmm, All right, let's get in a little bit 707 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 2: of some topics and news that kind of broke last night. Again, 708 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 2: smaller moves, minor league deals, but again the Marlins are 709 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 2: making moves. 710 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,880 Speaker 5: They did sign. 711 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 2: Who has time from the Rays, who Peter Bennix knows, 712 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 2: another guy who could potentially eat innings, could come in 713 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 2: be a spot starter for the Marlons. And also Kurt Casally, 714 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 2: who had a down year last season but with the 715 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 2: Giants was one of the better defense of catchers as 716 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 2: well as backup catchers in baseball. So I want to 717 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 2: get your guys' thoughts on these two players real quickly 718 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 2: because we still have more topics to discuss, including Jordan 719 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 2: Grossing to the Yanks. But those two guys and uh 720 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 2: and and Kassally. Is one that intrigues you guys the most, 721 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 2: is or one that you could see a guy break camp. 722 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 7: I do like Churino's a lot, well not a lot, 723 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 7: but I like the signing. It's a good debt piece. 724 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 7: He was with Tampa for about three years until this 725 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 7: past year, until he got defaded and the Braves stuck him. 726 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 3: But he was pretty good. 727 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 7: He made a couple starts here and there. I think 728 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 7: twenty eighteen was his best year if I recall, and 729 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 7: it's not a bad pitcher by any means, only thirty 730 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 7: I think thirty thirty one, so still in the early 731 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 7: ages of his thirties, which is good. And it's a 732 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 7: good debt debt piece that at the end of the day, 733 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 7: you need pitching. You can never have enough pitching. And 734 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 7: he's someone who has started games and could come out 735 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 7: of your bullpen. So a strong spring for Chirino could 736 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 7: probably get him on the roster too. They still have options. 737 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 7: They just traded Ochret, so we'll see. And then Kirka 738 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 7: Sally is a great defensive catcher, so definitely good to have. 739 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 7: Skip mentioned during the winter meetings that he wanted someone 740 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 7: who who pitchers liked the throwing to, and that's what 741 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 7: kirk Casally fits. That the offense is not good. 742 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 9: But you wrote that in your article, and I did 743 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 9: not like that because by catcher standards, he's actually in 744 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 9: his career, he's actually been pretty solid, like an eighty 745 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 9: nine WRC. 746 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,240 Speaker 7: Plot for his twenty twenty season. 747 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 5: That all you have to look at. 748 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 9: He's had a few years, especially last year was a 749 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 9: last year he had an injury of foot injury, and 750 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 9: then when he's coming back from that, he had some 751 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 9: sort of illness that like ditched his rehab assignment. But 752 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 9: this is earlier in his career, like ye had a 753 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 9: year little spurts where his power really shows out, And 754 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 9: I think it was just important to have a third 755 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 9: catcher that has major league experience on this panel. We 756 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:42,719 Speaker 9: have some Will Banfield advocates, we have some Paul McIntosh 757 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 9: advocates as well, but neither of those guys have any 758 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 9: big league experienced. None of the other catchers outside of 759 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 9: Fortes and Ben and Court did. So to have somebody 760 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 9: like that is a plus. And he has had stretches 761 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 9: of his career where coincidence or not is coincided with 762 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 9: some incredible pitching performance. Who was with the twenty twenty 763 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 9: one Giants that was the most shocking team in the 764 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 9: league in twenty twenty one where they won a million 765 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 9: games and there was a streak where he caught I 766 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 9: believe it was five consecutive shutouts, obviously with different pictures 767 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 9: every single time. And just for me, I from what 768 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 9: I've read about Cassally, I think he is just a 769 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 9: pro typical, really high character knowledgeable catcher to have in camp. 770 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 9: So whether he squeezes Heaven did note this in the 771 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,919 Speaker 9: article about how the race have sometimes had stretches where 772 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 9: they've squeezed three catchers onto the active. 773 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 3: Roster at the same time. 774 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 9: I don't know if that really suits what the Marlins 775 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 9: have right now with all the other guys at other 776 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 9: positions who are out of options in et cetera. But 777 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 9: maybe at some point during the year there is a 778 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 9: situation where we see Cassally in the big leagues, whether 779 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 9: or not there's an jury. That's there's creative possibilities out 780 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,439 Speaker 9: there that could have him involved and have him helped during. 781 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 8: You've also lost depth right especially at the Triple A level, 782 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 8: they've lost depth, lost depth in terms of catching. They 783 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 8: needed to push up one of McIntosh or Banfield last year, 784 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:06,919 Speaker 8: and they kind of got stuck on the same team 785 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 8: because they had some depth of the Triple A. Now 786 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 8: that depth is gone, So yeah, signing to Sally is 787 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 8: a guy that that could be like that's the first 788 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 8: or second triple A catcher if he doesn't make the 789 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 8: major league roster and then be the guy on call 790 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 8: while Bamfield and McIntosh work out, you know, continuing to 791 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 8: fill out and completing their their their mind leagu journeys 792 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 8: is totally fine. I would say Devil's advocate side of 793 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 8: it is, he's thirty five and he just missed a 794 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 8: full year. Got to see how that plays out for him. 795 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 8: But no, yeah, I agree. I mean it's great defense 796 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 8: and his his offenses for a catcher not horrendous historically, 797 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 8: So it's fine. Like I said, depth of your move 798 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 8: and it's good to have, especially behind the play. It's 799 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 8: good to have an older guy around sometimes. So it's fine. 800 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 3: It was a good signing. I wasn't mad about this one. 801 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, I would. Something we haven't really mentioned it is 802 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 5: Jonathan Davis. 803 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 6: Kyle, Jonathan Davis is back and he was just such 804 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 6: a spark plug to this team playing center field. Is 805 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 6: really a heartbreaking scene when we saw him get injured 806 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 6: out there in center field. Is he someone that you 807 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:10,839 Speaker 6: think can make this ball clip or is he sort 808 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 6: of blocked by all the other outfield options, including a 809 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:14,720 Speaker 6: Nick Gordon. 810 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 3: Now, I don't know if I mean it feels like 811 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 3: he's blocked. It feels like. 812 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 5: Not wrong. 813 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 3: I mean you it's hard hard to see him on 814 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,800 Speaker 3: an opening day roster unless I'm I mean again. 815 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 4: Do you agree with with him being an insurance policy 816 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 4: right now? He's basically an insurance policy if Jazz or 817 00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 4: one of the other guys goes down, would you agree 818 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 4: with that? 819 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 3: I mean that he's also a candidate. If he has 820 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 3: a good spring, somebody could pick him up at the 821 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 3: tail end. If he's not going to make this team, 822 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,439 Speaker 3: you know, that's that's a very viable option as well. 823 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 4: And also keep him around for just for the sake 824 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 4: of vibes. 825 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's uh. If we're doing vibe roster spots, 826 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 3: that's taken up one, but we could we could do that. 827 00:38:56,560 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 3: That's all under advisement, all under consideration. I don't know. 828 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 3: I'm just what we talked about earlier, especially those two 829 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 3: guys being out of options with Bruhan and Gordon. Again, 830 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 3: Nick Gordon is on the team. You don't make that 831 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 3: trade to see what he looks like in spring training, 832 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,440 Speaker 3: and again Bruhan former top five guy in the Rays system. 833 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 3: I mean, unless I'm missing the boat on this too, 834 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,359 Speaker 3: I think they're banking on that dude being really good 835 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,320 Speaker 3: at some point in the big leagues, like putting it together, 836 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 3: and he's out of options, so you know, you know, 837 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,480 Speaker 3: maybe not obviously a high profile trade, but when you're 838 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 3: able to acquire a guy like that that you still 839 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 3: feel like he did everything. It's actually similar to Jan 840 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 3: Bride a little bit. He's not everything that he needs 841 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 3: to do in the in the minor leagues, Breuhan did it, 842 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 3: Bride has done it. They both had a cup of coffee. 843 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,080 Speaker 3: In the big leagues hasn't gone particularly well, but they're 844 00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 3: going to get an opportunity, both of them. But I think, 845 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 3: obviously to start Breuhan, I think he's going to be 846 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,919 Speaker 3: on the team. I really really do. And he gives 847 00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 3: a versatility. 848 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 7: Not only does he play BA, but he could also 849 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 7: play you multiple outfield spots. So it's good to have 850 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 7: someone like him. And I mean it's really encouraging when 851 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 7: you see what he did in winter ball, So oh yeah, 852 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:11,120 Speaker 7: definitely that he could take that momentum into spring. So 853 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 7: a lot to like about Bruhon for sure. 854 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 3: Yep. 855 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, and then they didn't give up a pretty decent 856 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,279 Speaker 6: help for him and Fouchet. It wasn't, you know, a 857 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 6: cheap price to get he and Fouchet here. So I 858 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,439 Speaker 6: definitely think that they'll both be on the opening day roster, 859 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,240 Speaker 6: especially Forchet. They need a lot of right handed relief 860 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,359 Speaker 6: help and I think he can definitely help out. 861 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree. Again, it's I know, a lot of 862 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 3: what they've done is kind of like been unpopular or 863 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 3: maybe some un sexy type moves because it just doesn't 864 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 3: move the needle because it's not the star that you 865 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 3: hear about all the time. But it's important to make 866 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 3: moves like this because number one, you don't know how 867 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 3: it's going to turn out. If you have really good 868 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 3: player development and something, you can unlock something and you know, 869 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 3: like you so oftentimes I've always been so like perplexed 870 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,600 Speaker 3: by this because obviously none of us have ever been 871 00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 3: on that field or know what it's like. But guys 872 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 3: will off and say things like they just unlocked something 873 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 3: and it freed me out loud, what does that mean? 874 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 3: Like really? But can they unlock something in a couple 875 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:11,439 Speaker 3: of these guys. And again, it's the Ray's way. It's 876 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,400 Speaker 3: gonna sound like we're beating a dead horse here in 877 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 3: a drum, but like it's the Raise way. 878 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:16,839 Speaker 2: Man. 879 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 3: If you have good player development, you can unlock a 880 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 3: little something you strike golden. It's very very low risk 881 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 3: in ginormous high reward if you can turn one or 882 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 3: two of these guys into big leaguers, and obviously they're 883 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 3: inexpensive with a ton of team control. 884 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 4: We were talking today, Jordan and I at the field. 885 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 4: We were talking with mel Stottomeyer Junior for a bit 886 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 4: and he mentioned about unlocking things and players specifically, he 887 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:47,160 Speaker 4: mentioned Tanner Scott unlocking that confidence to be in the 888 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:51,880 Speaker 4: ninth inning and just the way he carries himself, in 889 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:53,919 Speaker 4: the way he goes into his workouts and everything. He's 890 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 4: just was hammering home in the fact that Tanner Scott 891 00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:00,320 Speaker 4: unlocked something, and we asked him, what about who's the 892 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 4: next guy he needs to unlock something in, and he 893 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,839 Speaker 4: went straight for Edward Carbrera. From the neck up. He says, 894 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 4: it is all mental for Edward and he just needs 895 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 4: to get over that hump and he'll be lights out. 896 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 2: You guys believe Edward is gonna be here by the time. 897 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was just gonna ask Kyle's opinion on this 898 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 6: because it's such a fascinating topic. He's also out of options. 899 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,720 Speaker 6: He this is someone that probably has the best stuff 900 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 6: in the entire organization. He has five pitches, He's a 901 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 6: large man. You can definitely pitch out of the rotation, 902 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 6: I think. And if not a lights out reliever, what 903 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 6: would you do if you were in mister Bendix's shoes, 904 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 6: Because obviously we've heard rumors, we don't know anything's in 905 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,479 Speaker 6: a come to fruition, we don't know anything. What would 906 00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 6: you do with Edward Carbrera Me personally, I keep him, 907 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,280 Speaker 6: lock him in as your number four or five starter 908 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 6: because I think he has ace potential. 909 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, here's the thing. Obviously, if you're 910 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 3: going to trust that things can improve from the shoulders up, 911 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 3: you know, you have to be super confident in that 912 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 3: because if you start the season and it's not going 913 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 3: well and he's out of options, all of a sudden, 914 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 3: the hamster wheel gets going, like okay, well, now what 915 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 3: are we going to do when we dfam? 916 00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 2: Right? 917 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:13,359 Speaker 3: Like Okay, we've got to make a move because he's 918 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 3: hurting us that this is the worst case scenario, But 919 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 3: obviously this is something that could arise if you go 920 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,359 Speaker 3: into this thing, is that we're not going to trade him. 921 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:22,600 Speaker 3: We're going to keep them. He's going to be our 922 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,320 Speaker 3: fourth or fist. That really doesn't matter once you go 923 00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 3: through one turn in the rotation, doesn't matter where you are. 924 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 3: But right like all of a sudden, there's a bit 925 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 3: of a predicament if it's not going well, and then 926 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,720 Speaker 3: you got to make decisions. And so so I understand 927 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 3: now the other side of it, it's really hard for 928 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:41,440 Speaker 3: me to not give him another chance. There's just too 929 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 3: much stuff like the one that really sticks out, weren't 930 00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 3: we in Milwaukee last year and he fired like five 931 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 3: shutout endings, maybe walk like a ton in his first inning, 932 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,800 Speaker 3: but then settled in and started rifling through guys that 933 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,360 Speaker 3: might be revisions history, but something happened in Milwaukee. I 934 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 3: was like, where is this dude been? You know, and 935 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 3: you start he puts that together and you're like, did 936 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 3: he turn that corner? Because look at that I see 937 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 3: a lot of red. I understand on Baseball Savant that's 938 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 3: really good. We can run with that, right, like there's 939 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 3: something there. There's obvious you don't I would say, just 940 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 3: by looking at that picture, somebody put me in the 941 00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 3: front office, this would be great. I ain't moving that. Sorry. 942 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 3: We got to work on the walks obviously because he 943 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 3: watched the yard, but everything else there's a lot to like, 944 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:30,839 Speaker 3: you know, so very very hard for me to see 945 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,760 Speaker 3: them moving him unless they have something up their sleeve 946 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,800 Speaker 3: where we're going to move him and we know exactly 947 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,400 Speaker 3: what turn we're going to make after. 948 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 1: That and. 949 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 3: Fill that need, we'll see, Thank goodness, is not my decision. 950 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 3: I know that that's a tough one, an easy one. 951 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 6: I just I think he showed enough last year that 952 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 6: it'd be hard to not give him at least at 953 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 6: two months. 954 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,720 Speaker 5: But like you said, it's a gamble. It's a exact 955 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 5: definition of a gamble. 956 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:57,799 Speaker 6: You either hold on to him and hope he shows 957 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:00,359 Speaker 6: something in April and May, and if not, you kind 958 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 6: of screwed up all his value. 959 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,720 Speaker 5: So yeah, I'm with you at on envy Peter Bennix's position. 960 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 6: But I mean just from his last what was it, 961 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 6: eleven games started and he was pitching almost lights out. 962 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 6: He was walking on almost six guys per nine, but 963 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 6: he was still pitching really well and minimizing damage. 964 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,879 Speaker 5: And something's there. Something's there. 965 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 9: So yeah, on a per ending basis, he's a really 966 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:22,839 Speaker 9: fascinating guy. 967 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 7: To me. 968 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 9: What why I am down on him is just the 969 00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 9: lack of I don't see the path to him working 970 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 9: deep into games when he's so inefficient with how he 971 00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:38,640 Speaker 9: uses his pitches, with the recurring issues he's had with 972 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 9: blisters that have brought him out of some games, and 973 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:45,239 Speaker 9: also just general durability as well. Unfortunately, he you know, 974 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 9: he when he was when he was coming up, people 975 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 9: have short memories. Just a few years ago, people were 976 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,680 Speaker 9: comparing him to Sandy. He's built Sandy, he has stuff 977 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 9: like Sandy, and it's just it's complicated to forecasts exactly 978 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 9: how a body will hold up when they have major 979 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 9: league workload. And even last year he was interrupted a 980 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,439 Speaker 9: little bit by relatively minor injury by his standards, that's 981 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,640 Speaker 9: the Yeah. The thing is the combination of him not 982 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 9: being available all that much and even what he's on, 983 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 9: it's just it's a lot of efforts to get through 984 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,279 Speaker 9: his innings and deep into the games, like it's all 985 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 9: all this pieces are interconnected. 986 00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 3: Eli. That's a good point too, because the job of 987 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 3: a baseball operations department is to forecast and project. And 988 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 3: if you're projecting that five and dive catches up to 989 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 3: you in a hurry because now you're eating innings in 990 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 3: a bullpen. And boy, the season is long. We saw 991 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 3: that a lot last year, right, some really good performances. 992 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 3: But when you're five and dive, dude, it it's it's 993 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 3: hard with no off days in sight to you know, 994 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 3: piece that thing together. 995 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:53,359 Speaker 4: So the bullpen died. The bullpen started to literally die 996 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,840 Speaker 4: at the like at some points last season because they 997 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:57,759 Speaker 4: were just overworked. 998 00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's and that's you make a good points. That's 999 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,120 Speaker 3: another thing to the Cabrera mix. You know, like, yeah, 1000 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 3: if he's really really good but he's struggling to get 1001 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 3: you that you work into the sixth inning. You know, 1002 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 3: it does it. It puts pressure on a lot of 1003 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 3: other guys in a very long season. And it's not 1004 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,040 Speaker 3: just that night. It's it's the trickle down effect of 1005 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,719 Speaker 3: what you know that might cause in games ahead. If 1006 00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 3: you had to blow somebody out for two innes you know, 1007 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 3: so you're you're absolutely right. Again comes back to that's 1008 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,320 Speaker 3: a really tough decision, and I tend to believe that 1009 00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 3: when you kind of see that stuff out there, like 1010 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 3: it's been out there enough, I'm sure there's a little 1011 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,920 Speaker 3: smoke to that fire. That's probably a thing. And I'm 1012 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 3: sure they're taking phone calls and that's going to be 1013 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,120 Speaker 3: a tough one if they ultimately decide to move him 1014 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 3: or keep whatever they decide to do, that's a tough decision. 1015 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 3: I'll bring up a. 1016 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:51,479 Speaker 8: Fun fact about mister Cabrera, and I think I agree 1017 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 8: with Isaac mostly that this guy just has great stuff, 1018 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:55,719 Speaker 8: and I think you should just give him one more year. 1019 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 3: I really do. 1020 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 8: I think I think that you should just try to 1021 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,879 Speaker 8: try to give him just that chance to prove himself. 1022 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 3: Just one more year. 1023 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 8: I mean, he's been hampered by injuries, he's had stuff 1024 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 8: going on. You know, it's been up and down, So 1025 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 8: I think one more year is fair. What I would 1026 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 8: say overall is the first pitch that he throws in 1027 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 8: at bats. If you look at splitslat split stats for 1028 00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 8: Cabrera first pitch of at bats, hitters that swing at 1029 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 8: it touch him up for a one point zero one 1030 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:25,879 Speaker 8: to two ohbs, So that is insane. If you swing 1031 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 8: at the first pitch and you know it's gonna be 1032 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,080 Speaker 8: his fastball, it's probably gonna go a long way. And 1033 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:31,719 Speaker 8: I really see it if you look at heat maps 1034 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 8: and look at controlled numbers and stuff like that that 1035 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 8: he does on the first pitch. He grooves the fastball 1036 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 8: a lot of the time on the first pitch. That's 1037 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 8: gonna get fixed. He also has thrown the change up 1038 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,839 Speaker 8: a lot. We saw that last year. It was kind 1039 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 8: of going away from the fastball in order to change up. 1040 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 8: Hitters kind of sniffed at it as well. So whatever 1041 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:49,320 Speaker 8: pitch it was, they were ready for it, and he 1042 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:51,880 Speaker 8: got really hurt on first pitches of at bats. I 1043 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 8: think it's getting ahead with strike one that is a 1044 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:57,920 Speaker 8: lot of Edward Cabrera's problem and then letting the control 1045 00:48:58,400 --> 00:48:59,880 Speaker 8: consist from there, which. 1046 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 3: Is some that he has not done either. So I 1047 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 3: think that's interesting. Who's the gentleman they just hired this 1048 00:49:05,360 --> 00:49:08,800 Speaker 3: over who came from drive Line or whatever. What's his name, Brandon. 1049 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 3: Now I'm not saying he's what's this guy gonna do? 1050 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,160 Speaker 3: You know, these are people you don't really see that 1051 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 3: are working on the computers and standing behind him with 1052 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 3: iPads and running all these numbers. You know, what's a 1053 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 3: guy like that do with some of these guys, you know, 1054 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 3: because you're like all of that stuff is kind of 1055 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:28,920 Speaker 3: surface level stuff. It's very easy to go find that 1056 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 3: information like this is what was happening? Like they know 1057 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:36,600 Speaker 3: that and can they unlock a little something? So you know, 1058 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:38,879 Speaker 3: there's a lot of pieces to the puzzle, but it's 1059 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 3: all very interesting. 1060 00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, and then you know, Alex mentioned the first strike thing, 1061 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,000 Speaker 7: and I know it's a reliever, but look at Tanner 1062 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 7: Scott one year to another, his first pitch ended up 1063 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 7: being the difference to what was an amazing season. So 1064 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 7: maybe whatever Tanner is doing, Edward could take some of 1065 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,200 Speaker 7: that too. But you know, I'm on, I'm like in 1066 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 7: the middle here, because if you get a good package 1067 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 7: red when you're not complaining, I mean, you're gonna you're 1068 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:05,120 Speaker 7: gonna improve your pharm system, you're gonna get some sort 1069 00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 7: of major league piece back. But then you're losing a picture, 1070 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,319 Speaker 7: and that's losing depth. And it's someone like Edward who 1071 00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 7: not too long ago, as Eli mentioned, this guy was 1072 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 7: compared to Santy al Contrad. This guy was the number one. 1073 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 7: This was like the Yuri for the Marlins when Ury 1074 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,759 Speaker 7: wasn't Yury yet. And he has a he has some 1075 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:25,160 Speaker 7: really nasty stuff. And if he could just put down 1076 00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 7: the walk rate, they'll just a little bit. 1077 00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 5: Man. 1078 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:28,959 Speaker 7: That's that's really all you're asking at this point, because 1079 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 7: every single time he's been called up particually his walk 1080 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,759 Speaker 7: rate has been it's been high. 1081 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:34,879 Speaker 3: It's been very high. 1082 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:36,440 Speaker 7: I don't have it in front of me right now, 1083 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 7: but I was looking at it today and it was 1084 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 7: I know he had a sixth something walk per nine 1085 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:42,560 Speaker 7: in twenty twenty two. 1086 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,359 Speaker 4: I have to look at the walk percentage down there 1087 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 4: in the cast. 1088 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:52,000 Speaker 3: That's just wait and style exactly. 1089 00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:54,560 Speaker 7: I mean, if he could just get that down, that's 1090 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 7: all you really want. But I'm not complaining if you 1091 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 7: get a really good prospect package back along with some 1092 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,840 Speaker 7: sort of major lege. I know g one Day was 1093 00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:03,879 Speaker 7: mentioned there. I don't know how to feel about exactly him, 1094 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 7: but I like the prospects I were mentioned, but we 1095 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,880 Speaker 7: don't have time to go onto all of them, and 1096 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:11,440 Speaker 7: our hosts decided to leave. 1097 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:13,799 Speaker 6: The last thing I'll take is we mentioned the five 1098 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,120 Speaker 6: inning thing is just he struggles to get those eight 1099 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,640 Speaker 6: pitch innings and it's very difficult. Someone else who kind 1100 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 6: of struggles obviously had a career year is Braxing Garrett. 1101 00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 6: So one of them Medwick career is sort of not 1102 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 6: at the highest value right now. Braxing Garrett is at 1103 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 6: the highest value he'll ever be at. So which one 1104 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,960 Speaker 6: would you sort of dangle in trade talks. That's interesting 1105 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 6: because neither of them really will give you more than 1106 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,800 Speaker 6: five innings, but one of them was really effective. 1107 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 5: The other one can be way more effective if you unlocks. 1108 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 5: The other one is safer bet So that's like always 1109 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:43,120 Speaker 5: an interesting comparison for me. Obviously, totally different pitchers. It 1110 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 5: could not be more different, but both of them give 1111 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:46,799 Speaker 5: the same amount of innings pretty much. 1112 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 3: Now, you guys tell me this. Here's something I felt. 1113 00:51:49,320 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 3: I felt this with Braxton Garrett. It's like they almost 1114 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 3: didn't trust him to go more than five, but then 1115 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 3: when you started to do it, they're like, oh, no, 1116 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 3: he can do it. I felt that. 1117 00:51:58,080 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1118 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 3: To back that up, I felt very early in the 1119 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 3: season because I had there's you just look at it. 1120 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 3: It's like a soft tossing lefty. You know, it's not 1121 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 3: ninety eight to ninety nine with a ton of strikeouts. 1122 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,160 Speaker 3: Tiar he is, there's the man all this kid, he's 1123 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 3: doing well. He has a great cat that he loves 1124 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 3: rex and does but right like the kind of the 1125 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 3: soft tossing lefty who induces a lot of contact, you know, 1126 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,800 Speaker 3: people when they make contact, they hit it heart. To me, 1127 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 3: it felt like it took a while for the coaching 1128 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 3: staff and the manager to trust. Now he was through 1129 00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,480 Speaker 3: five pitch count was reasonable, but they're like, nope, that's good, 1130 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 3: thank you again, thank you, we're good. And that I 1131 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,239 Speaker 3: felt like they started to trust him and they let 1132 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 3: the leash off and he was giving them, you know, 1133 00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,879 Speaker 3: more than the five. So I love Bras. I think 1134 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 3: that is such a birthla fresh air in today's game too. 1135 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 3: When you're seeing ninety seven to one hundred night in 1136 00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:51,600 Speaker 3: a night out and he's just kind of from the 1137 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 3: side lefty, you know, picked up that cutter on the 1138 00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:59,800 Speaker 3: fly last year in the big leagues. That's insane. I 1139 00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 3: would let him go. 1140 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:06,440 Speaker 4: Nell also mentioned Mell also mentioned loosening the rains a 1141 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,279 Speaker 4: bit on Uri, which I'm excited to see and I think. 1142 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:12,480 Speaker 3: This spring they're going to say. I don't think you're 1143 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 3: ever going to hear somebody say this is what we're 1144 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 3: doing with him this year. I genuinely believe he's going 1145 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 3: to go out there every fifth or sixth day, and 1146 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 3: I'm sure they'll take care of the young man when 1147 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 3: there's an off day and they're capable of doing so. 1148 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:25,640 Speaker 3: I will be stunned if at any point this season 1149 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:29,400 Speaker 3: you get a hard cap on innings or starts. I 1150 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:30,839 Speaker 3: just don't think you're going to see it. I don't 1151 00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:33,520 Speaker 3: think Skipping his staff are wired that way. I think 1152 00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:36,080 Speaker 3: they'll be cognizant. I think they will be on the 1153 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:39,319 Speaker 3: same page as the Baseball operation department, and they will 1154 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 3: do what's best for the young man. But I don't 1155 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 3: think we're going to go out of spring training knowing 1156 00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:44,840 Speaker 3: he's going to get two weeks off in July. He 1157 00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:46,759 Speaker 3: will not throw more than one hundred and fifty five 1158 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:48,320 Speaker 3: and a third innings and that's going to be it 1159 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 3: and he's done again. That's not going to happen. 1160 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,960 Speaker 8: In my opinion, Yeah, that has to happen. That what 1161 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,879 Speaker 8: you just said, Kyle has to happen. At this point 1162 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,759 Speaker 8: in Paris' career, he's ready take the reins off like 1163 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 8: that it's enough, like let them go. 1164 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 3: Hmm, yeah, no. 1165 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:04,799 Speaker 7: And that's also good to hear because when we had 1166 00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 7: skip on Unfiltered, I think I was either Igar. I 1167 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 7: asked him, can we expect more than one hundred and 1168 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,320 Speaker 7: twenty four innings around there? That was the range that 1169 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,160 Speaker 7: he pitched between the majors and the minors, And Skipta said, yeah, 1170 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 7: of course. I mean, this is a guy who is 1171 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:20,840 Speaker 7: now twenty I want to say, twenty twenty one, and 1172 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:23,399 Speaker 7: you've got to let him loose at some point. 1173 00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 3: And that's definitely the thing. 1174 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:28,280 Speaker 9: He is still the youngest pitcher in the majors. 1175 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,719 Speaker 3: I'm not suggesting that means thirty two starts in two 1176 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty innings. It's not right. 1177 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:36,520 Speaker 4: I mean slowly right. 1178 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:41,319 Speaker 3: I don't mind shutdown, you won't see that. Just they're 1179 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:43,520 Speaker 3: gonna take care of him. But he's gonna pitch. I 1180 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 3: think he's gonna pitch all season long. There might be 1181 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:49,000 Speaker 3: starts where, you know, what, if he's threw six innings 1182 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:53,239 Speaker 3: on eighty eight pitches or something, they might take them. 1183 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:56,680 Speaker 3: But I think you're going to see him make And 1184 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 3: I totally understand. I I've always been to the school 1185 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 3: of thought. Again, this is just me talking nonsense as 1186 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 3: somebody that loves the game. What the heck, he's twenty 1187 00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:07,759 Speaker 3: one years old. Turn it loose, big boy. But I 1188 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:12,400 Speaker 3: understand the game is just littered with billions of dollars. 1189 00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 3: You have to protect players. I understand that, and they 1190 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:17,440 Speaker 3: will protect him, but they're not going to be shy 1191 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:19,240 Speaker 3: with him. That's just my opinion. 1192 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1193 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:22,399 Speaker 8: I mean, you saw it a couple times last year 1194 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:24,279 Speaker 8: with the innings limit on when he's like, you know, 1195 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:26,239 Speaker 8: eighty eight pitches through five and they take him out 1196 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 8: as come on, like r come on seriously, like you know, 1197 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 8: let's just let the guy go. 1198 00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 5: I mean, and I get it. 1199 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 8: I get the protection I do. I do understand that 1200 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 8: as well, especially for a guy that has gone through 1201 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 8: some minor injuries and stuff like that. 1202 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:38,480 Speaker 3: So I get it. 1203 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,920 Speaker 8: But protecting the investment, it's not really an investment at 1204 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:43,279 Speaker 8: this point because they didn't pay a lot. But what 1205 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 8: I mean is protecting the future. I do understand. But 1206 00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,320 Speaker 8: at some point it has to be enough, and I 1207 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:50,359 Speaker 8: think that's going to be this year. Like like you said, Kyle, 1208 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,799 Speaker 8: I I really do think that that's true, that you'll 1209 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 8: see more Yuri Perez than twenty twenty four. 1210 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 3: Which if you don't, they're going to have a hard 1211 00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,279 Speaker 3: time winning. I thought there was an impact last year 1212 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,279 Speaker 3: when he was option and I thought that was real, 1213 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:04,719 Speaker 3: and I thought the clubhouse probably felt that. Again, this 1214 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 3: is just my opinion, folks. I'm just as an outsider, 1215 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 3: just kind of watching it. But like they have to 1216 00:56:11,600 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 3: compensate for how many innings missed from Sandy. Now like 1217 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,080 Speaker 3: that that's not all on one shoulder or two shoulders. 1218 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 3: That's an entire rotation and that's going to require guys 1219 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:22,520 Speaker 3: to be pushed a little bit. And when you're coming 1220 00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 3: around turn four the Kentucky Derby, you better take that 1221 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:26,400 Speaker 3: whip and hit the horse a little bit right like 1222 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 3: we got to go. So I think you're going to 1223 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 3: see that and guys are gonna get pushed. You have 1224 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,040 Speaker 3: no concerns with Lizardo, you have no concerns with Braxton Garrett. 1225 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 3: They will be cognizant of what they do with Yuri 1226 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:42,320 Speaker 3: and whatever. Trevor's a wildcard man to me, what do 1227 00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 3: they go to get? What are you going to get? 1228 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:46,520 Speaker 3: Is there going to be a twenty twenty one version 1229 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:52,560 Speaker 3: out there? Can he stay healthy, like they've obviously acquired 1230 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:55,360 Speaker 3: some depth here. Ryan Weathers fascinates me. A guy that 1231 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:57,520 Speaker 3: was pulled up way too early, way too young in 1232 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:00,680 Speaker 3: twenty twenty, and the COVID thing with the Padres and 1233 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 3: the Dodgers got yanked up and down reminded me a 1234 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:05,600 Speaker 3: little bit of Brad Hand. Maybe that's the bad comparison, 1235 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:08,239 Speaker 3: but I just think about that just pulled up too young, 1236 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 3: I thought Weather's and when we I don't know if 1237 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:14,920 Speaker 3: you saw that thing Steven and I did with him, 1238 00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 3: but I was just I was hanging like by a thread. 1239 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,120 Speaker 3: Whatever the kid was saying. I was like, ooh, you know, 1240 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,480 Speaker 3: it feels like he knows exactly what he wants to do. 1241 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 3: And he mentioned multiple times or just once, but kind 1242 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 3: of reiterated it what the change did. And when he 1243 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 3: got the Jacksonville last year, it just seemingly like he 1244 00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 3: just took a deep breath and exhaled and just got 1245 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,640 Speaker 3: back to the roots of what he does. And I 1246 00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 3: know it's closing day and everybody had flights to catch. 1247 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 3: I was really encouraged by what I saw in Pittsburgh 1248 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:44,120 Speaker 3: on that final day as well. 1249 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you guys believe there are any guys maybe 1250 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 2: currently in the system. You could go triple double A 1251 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 2: that could potentially have some spots starts in the season, 1252 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 2: cove and get those innings. Pja here mentioning Patrick Monteverde, 1253 00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:58,560 Speaker 2: is that maybe the only guy or do you guys 1254 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:00,520 Speaker 2: see someone else that an potentially to come up. 1255 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:03,920 Speaker 3: I'll throw one year way and you guys can take 1256 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 3: over the rest. Because I try to stay up to 1257 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,200 Speaker 3: data on all this stuff. I think Max Meyer is 1258 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:12,240 Speaker 3: going to contribute this year. I wouldn't say it's a must, 1259 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:15,600 Speaker 3: but that kid's got some stuff and if he's healthy. 1260 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 3: I've always said he is wired a little differently. He 1261 00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:21,880 Speaker 3: ticks a little differently, and I mean that in a 1262 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 3: good way. Something happens when he crosses over that line 1263 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:28,120 Speaker 3: and goes to the pitcher's bound where you know he's 1264 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 3: nobody's going to beat him. I think he's going to 1265 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 3: be a major contributor for the Marlins this season. It's 1266 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 3: not going to be the start. I don't think you 1267 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:36,400 Speaker 3: can do that to the young man coming off Tommy 1268 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 3: John because guys will get out there on that mount 1269 00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,439 Speaker 3: in the big leagues, they get all out of sync, 1270 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 3: they get out of whack, mechanically because they're trying to 1271 00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:45,040 Speaker 3: do too much. I think if you see him start 1272 00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:47,440 Speaker 3: off really well, I assume it would be Triple A. 1273 00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 3: Maybe I'm off on that. Wherever he starts, he's going 1274 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 3: to be right for the picking to come to Miami 1275 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:56,080 Speaker 3: pretty quick. I think there he is all over it. 1276 00:58:56,960 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 5: Yep, yeah, Craig, go ahead either. 1277 00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 6: I just Craig was mentioning all that about his personality 1278 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:07,360 Speaker 6: as a bulldog out there, and uh yeah, I am intrigued. 1279 00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 5: To see what he can do. I agree with you, Kyle. 1280 00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 6: He'll probably start in the miners and as soon as 1281 00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:12,120 Speaker 6: they need a guy, probably in the middle of the year. 1282 00:59:12,440 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 5: I think he's got to be one of the first 1283 00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 5: men up. 1284 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,000 Speaker 7: And then the other name I think was mentioned in 1285 00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 7: the comments, Pat Monteverde. Really good year, struggled at Triple A, 1286 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:23,600 Speaker 7: but still a lot to like from from what he did, 1287 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,360 Speaker 7: and definitely the name to keep an eye on. Really 1288 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:28,080 Speaker 7: can't think of another start. 1289 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,920 Speaker 3: I mean, what you guys call Maldonado as a reliever? 1290 00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:37,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I think, I think, yeah, I think 1291 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,680 Speaker 6: he's got in the bullpen part of it. I think 1292 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,520 Speaker 6: he's got a chance to make the ball club out 1293 00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 6: of spring training to get told us he was someone 1294 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:47,360 Speaker 6: that they really wanted to bring up. And then, yeah, 1295 00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 6: I think those are the main guys that are are 1296 00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 6: pretty safe bets to be contributing on. 1297 00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 5: The mound in twenty twenty four for sure. 1298 00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 3: So here's my thing, and it goes back to what 1299 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:57,120 Speaker 3: we talked about earlier. Just because many people don't know 1300 00:59:57,240 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 3: the name and they want to bash the organization for 1301 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 3: doing nothing, why can't this team compete. Maldonado's got some 1302 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 3: six stuff. I've seen some video. You tell me that's 1303 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 3: not gonna play in the big leaks. I don't need 1304 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:09,720 Speaker 3: a degree from Harvard to tell you that that can 1305 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:13,280 Speaker 3: play at this level. Like they're gonna have a good bullpen, 1306 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 3: they're gonna have good starting pitchers. They had that, they 1307 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 3: have the Yes, they have the two time back to 1308 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 3: back National League in American League batting time like hello, 1309 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 3: Like they have big leaguers. I promise you, I promise 1310 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 3: they have big leaguers. 1311 01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:29,280 Speaker 6: And in Sherman's defense, you know, when guys like David 1312 01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:32,479 Speaker 6: Robinson are getting eleven million dollars, maybe you can't blame 1313 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:34,959 Speaker 6: the guy for not going out and acquiring some of these. 1314 01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 5: Big free agency. I wouldn't never you know, I wouldn't 1315 01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 5: even spend anything close. 1316 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,320 Speaker 3: Would that have made people happy if they brought back 1317 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 3: to David Robertson and gave him eleven million dollars because 1318 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:44,040 Speaker 3: they signed a major leaguer. 1319 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,240 Speaker 9: Not a great example, He wasn't super popular. 1320 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 3: You know what, Like, that's eleven million dollars. What pond 1321 01:00:50,720 --> 01:00:52,440 Speaker 3: are we supposed to be fishing in here? If those 1322 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:55,919 Speaker 3: guys are getting eleven million dollars, exactly, you're you're gonna 1323 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:58,680 Speaker 3: open up the just because we're doing it, just because 1324 01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 3: what make people happy? If you spend ten million just 1325 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:05,960 Speaker 3: because well that he's everybody's nerves slow down, do the 1326 01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:07,280 Speaker 3: right thing, doing the right thing. 1327 01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think no matter who they spent, because no 1328 01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:10,800 Speaker 5: one was really that happy. 1329 01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 6: They spent a lot of money on obviousl Garcia and 1330 01:01:12,720 --> 01:01:14,960 Speaker 6: even at the time before he started struggling with Miami, 1331 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:17,080 Speaker 6: people weren't exactly a static either. 1332 01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:18,600 Speaker 5: So I think it has to be the right person 1333 01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 5: as well. And I think Jad Martinez is the right guy. 1334 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:22,640 Speaker 6: I don't think they're going to get him, but I 1335 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 6: think Tim Madison is also the right guy, and I 1336 01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 6: think that's a fair thing that'll get people excited. 1337 01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:27,800 Speaker 3: I think that would be a great short stop for 1338 01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 3: the Miami Marlins going through what only we know we 1339 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 3: went through in Chicago publicly, there was just it was 1340 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,200 Speaker 3: always something weird. You know, the White Sox are obviously 1341 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:38,440 Speaker 3: in a bit of turmoil. He really talked to the 1342 01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:42,360 Speaker 3: media a whole lot struggled. Do guys like that, he's 1343 01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 3: not forty you bring you give a guy a breath 1344 01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 3: of fresh air in a different uniform and an opportunity 1345 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:50,040 Speaker 3: to relax and just just just to change the scenery. 1346 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 3: How much would he cast you fine? 1347 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 5: I think he might also. 1348 01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 4: I think he might also fit really well with just 1349 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 4: the clubhouse, like guys like guys like Jazz and Nick Gordon, 1350 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:02,280 Speaker 4: who were all over for each other today. It was hysterical. 1351 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 3: People are quick to say, like Tim Anderson's a bad guy. 1352 01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:07,320 Speaker 3: Have you met him? Are you just reading what you 1353 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 3: see on Twitter? What you know? What are we doing? 1354 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 3: Give the guy a chance? Maybe he's a great guy. 1355 01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:12,360 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1356 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:16,760 Speaker 3: When I asked m. 1357 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,760 Speaker 5: Burger knows, and I've heard I've heard only good things 1358 01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:22,800 Speaker 5: about Tim Anderson, And I. 1359 01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:27,440 Speaker 4: Think Wie g ands Son, who I was talking to 1360 01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:31,320 Speaker 4: a lot during the Caribbean series mentioned how Tim Anderson 1361 01:02:31,360 --> 01:02:34,400 Speaker 4: has been been put in a bad light and when 1362 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:35,400 Speaker 4: he really shouldn't be. 1363 01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:36,400 Speaker 2: I don't. 1364 01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:38,160 Speaker 3: I don't know about that, the angle on Anderson. 1365 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 8: I would probably say that I disagree with a lot 1366 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:42,080 Speaker 8: of what you guys just said, not because of the 1367 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,600 Speaker 8: clubhouse stuff, but because this is an Asian player and 1368 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 8: it seems like Jeane Cigarette again. But that's that's that's 1369 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 8: all I'll say on him anyways. That's that's all I 1370 01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 8: say about that. I'm not saying anything else. I just 1371 01:02:51,520 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 8: don't think that he is an upgrade over what they have. 1372 01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:56,720 Speaker 8: That's all I say. He's not an upgrade over what 1373 01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:58,720 Speaker 8: they currently have that they could put that shortstop. I 1374 01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 8: don't think he's an upgrade. That's it. Before what you 1375 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 8: guys were saying before about bullpen, though there's one earning 1376 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:06,480 Speaker 8: the names to call out that you guys, or two 1377 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:08,640 Speaker 8: other names to call out that we didn't really say here. 1378 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:10,920 Speaker 8: They still have Zach mccambley, who I still think is 1379 01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:13,600 Speaker 8: good as a reliever, and they still have this guy 1380 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 8: wallbert Arias, who I think. 1381 01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:16,720 Speaker 3: Could be very good as well. Out of the bullpen. 1382 01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 8: Bullpen and pitching wise, I think they are good. 1383 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 3: I know you. 1384 01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 8: I likes Aris anyways, I'm not on board with the 1385 01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:25,680 Speaker 8: Anderson thing on my side, but I agree with what 1386 01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,919 Speaker 8: you guys said on bullpen stuff and pitching depth. There's 1387 01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 8: definitely bullpen depv pitching starting pitching dep. 1388 01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 3: In the minors. 1389 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 8: I don't know, but I think they do have guys 1390 01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:39,400 Speaker 8: that can contribute in both ways this year, and then 1391 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:41,040 Speaker 8: there's some there's some good problems to have in the 1392 01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:42,800 Speaker 8: current rotation and there's some not so good problems to 1393 01:03:42,840 --> 01:03:44,600 Speaker 8: have in the current rotation. So we're gonna say how 1394 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,000 Speaker 8: it plays out, but there are some guys down there 1395 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:48,400 Speaker 8: that can definitely contribute in both ways. 1396 01:03:48,840 --> 01:03:51,800 Speaker 7: Tim Anders would be a cheap option that I don't 1397 01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:55,640 Speaker 7: hate bringing on. I just obviously I have a guy 1398 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:56,920 Speaker 7: I don't know us know the guy personally. 1399 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:58,720 Speaker 3: Jake Berger speaks very highly. 1400 01:03:58,520 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 5: Of him, but well, we. 1401 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:01,720 Speaker 7: Very good. 1402 01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 5: But it just depends on the price. Depends on the price. 1403 01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:06,200 Speaker 6: Because John Birdy said to make three and a half 1404 01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:08,160 Speaker 6: million dollars do I think John Birdy's better than him. 1405 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:10,680 Speaker 5: Right now, probably safer bed. 1406 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,440 Speaker 6: But Tim Manesson can play shorts ut better and if 1407 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:14,120 Speaker 6: you can get him for a similar price as John 1408 01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 6: Birdy said to make you make that deal, and unfortunately 1409 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 6: you you you probably look to move John Birdie at 1410 01:04:19,840 --> 01:04:20,160 Speaker 6: that point. 1411 01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:22,920 Speaker 3: But I think that John Berdy is also John Birdie 1412 01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:25,640 Speaker 3: is four years older. And now let Lennie asked this question. 1413 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 3: He has played a substantial amount of time in the 1414 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:33,360 Speaker 3: big leagues? Has he ever been run out there? Every 1415 01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:35,920 Speaker 3: single day he gets exposed? 1416 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 4: He was struggling last year with it with with injuries 1417 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 4: too later on in the season from just over work, right. 1418 01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:45,040 Speaker 3: And Skip alluded to in the middle of the season 1419 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 3: when people kept peppering him with why aren't you running more? 1420 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:49,760 Speaker 3: And his first response that I always loved was like, 1421 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:54,080 Speaker 3: who do you want to run more? Like who's galloping 1422 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 3: out there? 1423 01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 5: Oh? 1424 01:04:57,400 --> 01:04:58,440 Speaker 3: That's right, right, right? 1425 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:01,000 Speaker 5: And he was about that. 1426 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 3: But he was also asked about that during the season 1427 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 3: and he alluded to there's a lot of stuff that 1428 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:07,200 Speaker 3: you guys don't know. And I think he had mentioned 1429 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 3: something like lower extremity or something for people. 1430 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:11,479 Speaker 4: It was it was something with his it was something 1431 01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:12,400 Speaker 4: with Birdie's legs. 1432 01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:15,600 Speaker 3: Okay, well, you know he had what sixteen seventeen stolen 1433 01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:19,400 Speaker 3: bases last year or something like, I'm not saying that 1434 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:21,960 Speaker 3: he's not better than Tim Anderson, but you know, he's 1435 01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:26,640 Speaker 3: four years older. I don't know. Yeah, we'll see. 1436 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 7: And just like the year before for Tim Anderson in 1437 01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:31,360 Speaker 7: twenty twenty two, he had a one to ten WRC 1438 01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 7: plus he only shrug out a fifty percent ray, which 1439 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:35,240 Speaker 7: is really good. 1440 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 3: He also played over three hundred I mean, it's not 1441 01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:41,200 Speaker 3: a bad option at the end of the day. It's 1442 01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:43,400 Speaker 3: definitely a bounced back guy. What's your going? Well, that's 1443 01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:45,680 Speaker 3: the thing, Kevin. I think that's a common theme here 1444 01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:49,760 Speaker 3: this offseason. The Mina Marlins have targeted players and brought players. 1445 01:05:50,080 --> 01:05:52,680 Speaker 3: A majority of the guys that they've gotten are players 1446 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 3: that have coming are coming to this organization that they 1447 01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:59,320 Speaker 3: think are due for bounce back seasons in the major leagues, right, 1448 01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:02,680 Speaker 3: and then you hope that Bruhan and a Bride can 1449 01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:05,680 Speaker 3: figure it out. If they signed a guy like and Anderson, 1450 01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:09,200 Speaker 3: they would expect a guy to bounce back, you know. 1451 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 3: So there's a lot of bounce back candidates and that's 1452 01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 3: what the Momins are gonna in my opinion, that's how 1453 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,880 Speaker 3: they're going to operate, and they need to draft and develop. 1454 01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 3: If they don't do that, this is not going to work, 1455 01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:21,400 Speaker 3: but they have to draft and develop, and I think 1456 01:06:21,440 --> 01:06:22,800 Speaker 3: they have the right people in place to do that. 1457 01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:26,880 Speaker 7: It's also when you think about it, because it's a 1458 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:29,040 Speaker 7: lot of what if. What if the guy bounces back? 1459 01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 7: What if the other guy bounces back. That's that's one way, 1460 01:06:32,240 --> 01:06:33,120 Speaker 7: isn't that baseball? Though? 1461 01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 3: What if we stay healthy? What if we don't stay healthy? 1462 01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:36,840 Speaker 3: Like you know, it's the nature of the game. 1463 01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:40,920 Speaker 6: So yeah, what what makes me optimistic is that, what 1464 01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 6: are the two best teams in baseball at revitalizing these 1465 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:47,640 Speaker 6: players coming off of bad years? The Dodgers and the Rays? 1466 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 6: And what is this front office made of guys that 1467 01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:54,040 Speaker 6: do and the race? So I think that certainly helps 1468 01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:55,800 Speaker 6: and it keeps me a little bit optimistic. Is look 1469 01:06:55,840 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 6: what the Dodgers do with every single guy that they 1470 01:06:57,720 --> 01:06:58,439 Speaker 6: bring to their team. 1471 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:02,720 Speaker 5: Holy crap, they're great at Jason Hayward. It's just hopefully 1472 01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:03,440 Speaker 5: a little bit of that. 1473 01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:06,160 Speaker 3: That's your PD, that's your player development. That's getting eyes 1474 01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:08,320 Speaker 3: on guys, giving them a breath of fresh air, and 1475 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:10,240 Speaker 3: trying to explain to them and trying to get them 1476 01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 3: to trust you with the information you're going to provide 1477 01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 3: them to try to help them. That's that's difficult to do. 1478 01:07:16,120 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 3: And I've always said, if you're going to start a 1479 01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,600 Speaker 3: major league organization, I'd probably start with the Rays, the Braves, 1480 01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:22,560 Speaker 3: and the Dodgers. And I think the moments started with 1481 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 3: the Rays and they acquired for all intents and purposes, 1482 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 3: Peter Bendix. Again, you know the Nash comes from Texas. 1483 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:31,360 Speaker 3: I promise you ninety nine percent of baseball fans have 1484 01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:34,280 Speaker 3: no idea who that is because it's just not something 1485 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 3: that registers on your radar as a fan. But those 1486 01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:39,760 Speaker 3: people are so important. And he's a wizard, and he 1487 01:07:39,800 --> 01:07:42,280 Speaker 3: has a history with Peter, and he speaks very highly 1488 01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:43,960 Speaker 3: of him, and those two have chemistry and they're going 1489 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 3: to trust each other. And it's just so much man 1490 01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:49,840 Speaker 3: that people don't see that has to happen right to 1491 01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:54,040 Speaker 3: make your team at the big league level successful, And 1492 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:55,080 Speaker 3: we'll see if they can do it. 1493 01:07:55,840 --> 01:07:58,040 Speaker 8: I think what you said, Kyle, it rings true. Like 1494 01:07:58,120 --> 01:07:59,600 Speaker 8: we've been talking a lot about the big league team, 1495 01:07:59,680 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 8: right But as a last for me on what we 1496 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:05,200 Speaker 8: all have to say is what they do in July is. 1497 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:06,360 Speaker 3: Going to be equally important. 1498 01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:09,520 Speaker 8: How they develop these deeper down prospects like nobel Meyer 1499 01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:11,920 Speaker 8: and others, is going to be very very important on 1500 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 8: the player development side, and how did how is bringing 1501 01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:18,200 Speaker 8: all these minds that go behind that and that are 1502 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:20,960 Speaker 8: behind that. How are they going to service these players 1503 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,519 Speaker 8: as best as they possibly can? That is definitely getting 1504 01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:26,080 Speaker 8: the most out of your young talent. Marlon Tummon done 1505 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:27,680 Speaker 8: that with draft picks. They were not able to do 1506 01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:30,200 Speaker 8: that with draft picks previously. Are they going to be 1507 01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:32,160 Speaker 8: able to do it now? That is a huge, huge 1508 01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:33,880 Speaker 8: question for them to answer if they are going to 1509 01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:35,760 Speaker 8: become the Feuter system that they need to be with 1510 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:39,720 Speaker 8: a lower payroll. So that's the biggest question of this 1511 01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 8: season going into the season for me is not what 1512 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:43,360 Speaker 8: they do with the big league side, but what they 1513 01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:46,080 Speaker 8: do with player development. That is the huge, huge factor 1514 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:49,479 Speaker 8: to focus on and something that really really I hope 1515 01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:50,559 Speaker 8: they answer well because. 1516 01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:52,840 Speaker 3: It's very important. And here's my last thing on that. 1517 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:56,599 Speaker 3: Peter said this from day one, and it rings very 1518 01:08:56,720 --> 01:08:59,040 Speaker 3: very true. You have to have good people and people 1519 01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:03,160 Speaker 3: like per since baseball is so hard, dude, and it's 1520 01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:06,639 Speaker 3: so long, and there's just so much failure that if 1521 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:08,680 Speaker 3: you get the right people in your system, not just 1522 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,519 Speaker 3: player development, but quite literally, your managers and coaches at 1523 01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:14,160 Speaker 3: those minor league levels that can just flat out relate 1524 01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:16,559 Speaker 3: to some of these kids and like can tell them 1525 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:19,240 Speaker 3: it's going to be okay, and like don't try, Like 1526 01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 3: you just have to just be good like with people. 1527 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 3: Man Like, if you can get people to trust you, 1528 01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:29,040 Speaker 3: it's ultimately going to help them, it's going to help 1529 01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:32,800 Speaker 3: your organization. You can't just be robots and put an 1530 01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:35,439 Speaker 3: iPad in front of them every day and show them 1531 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:39,439 Speaker 3: all the crap from last night and it just stop. 1532 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 3: Like seriously, and all the folks that I've talked to, 1533 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:44,400 Speaker 3: I'm not saying I know this, and I'm like I'm 1534 01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:46,920 Speaker 3: the inventor of this, but holy cow, you have to 1535 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,519 Speaker 3: have people in your organization that are really good with 1536 01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:52,599 Speaker 3: other humans and they can relate to them. And when 1537 01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:55,519 Speaker 3: the nineteen year old is hitting a buck sixty and 1538 01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:58,639 Speaker 3: thinks the world is falling, like, it's okay, we'll get 1539 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:00,640 Speaker 3: this figured out. Hang with me, We'll keep running you 1540 01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:03,160 Speaker 3: out there, we'll figure this out. Like that's that's all 1541 01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:05,639 Speaker 3: part of player development. It's it's not just taking them 1542 01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:08,280 Speaker 3: the cage every day after you watch hours of video 1543 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:11,320 Speaker 3: dissecting their right pink ky toe that they need to change. 1544 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:16,200 Speaker 2: So and I think that's a perfect way to close 1545 01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:19,240 Speaker 2: it out. Oriented going on a little bit over time, 1546 01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:21,640 Speaker 2: but it was perfect. I think we have time for 1547 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:24,800 Speaker 2: one last topic. It is Valentine's Day. As you can see, 1548 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:27,000 Speaker 2: we all don't have dates for tonight. We're all very 1549 01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:30,320 Speaker 2: lonely and talking about the Marlans and what's going to 1550 01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:33,560 Speaker 2: happen Kyle for us lonely men and for even the 1551 01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 2: lonely women out there, what is uh your advice for 1552 01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 2: for dating advice for everyone? 1553 01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:42,680 Speaker 3: Well, we're in trouble. We'll start there now. If you'd 1554 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:46,760 Speaker 3: like me to put a date together? Uh is this 1555 01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 3: is this a first date? If it If it's not, 1556 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:51,799 Speaker 3: I think a great date would simply be to invite 1557 01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:53,800 Speaker 3: the young lady over and cook a nice meal for 1558 01:10:54,600 --> 01:10:56,720 Speaker 3: I think that's very very nice. Not many men can 1559 01:10:56,760 --> 01:10:59,320 Speaker 3: do that. There are not very many domesticated men anymore. 1560 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 3: They're just they're simply not. Now, if it's a first date, 1561 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:06,840 Speaker 3: pick her up, unless she's more comfortable taking now. But 1562 01:11:06,880 --> 01:11:08,599 Speaker 3: if you pick her up, for the love of God, 1563 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:14,360 Speaker 3: let's start by opening the passenger side door. Lady in 1564 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:16,000 Speaker 3: the car, open the door, for he You don't have 1565 01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:17,680 Speaker 3: to buckle her up. She can do that herself. She's 1566 01:11:17,720 --> 01:11:22,560 Speaker 3: not a right safely now the first thing, engage in 1567 01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:25,920 Speaker 3: a little conversation in the vehicle. Get off the don't drive. 1568 01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,439 Speaker 3: Don't drive with the phone in your hand. Now you don't. 1569 01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:31,400 Speaker 3: Now there's trust issues immediately, it's never gonna work. Put 1570 01:11:31,439 --> 01:11:34,360 Speaker 3: the phone down, maybe some you don't have to put 1571 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:36,400 Speaker 3: some weird tunes on the radio, turn it off. Let's 1572 01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 3: see if we can engage in a conversation. It doesn't 1573 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,519 Speaker 3: have to be extravagant. I would start with maybe a 1574 01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:45,880 Speaker 3: glass of wine in the cheeseboard to set the mood. 1575 01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:51,520 Speaker 3: I think again, it doesn't have a fancy. 1576 01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:54,280 Speaker 5: Yes it is. 1577 01:11:55,280 --> 01:11:59,280 Speaker 3: Stop listening to Lewis and as a little nightcap. I 1578 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:01,160 Speaker 3: think maybe you start at the restaurant, at the bar. 1579 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:02,680 Speaker 3: Maybe you have a glass of wine. At the bar, 1580 01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:05,080 Speaker 3: you have reservations for eight. We get there around seven 1581 01:12:05,080 --> 01:12:06,479 Speaker 3: to fifteen. We have a glass of wine. You get 1582 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:08,719 Speaker 3: to the table, make sure you get the cheeseboard. Everybody 1583 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:11,000 Speaker 3: gets their meals. You have the wrong woman. Now she's 1584 01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:13,160 Speaker 3: not going to order food if she's I'm not hungry, No, no, no, 1585 01:12:13,360 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 3: Then you got to go. And now afterwards, how about 1586 01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:22,800 Speaker 3: a little putt putt, little mini golf? Yeah right, okay, right, 1587 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:31,479 Speaker 3: we're all screwed, but happy, uh, happy Valentine's Day. Kyle 1588 01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:32,839 Speaker 3: steal off huge cheeseboard. 1589 01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:33,639 Speaker 5: Guy, that's a takeaway. 1590 01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,200 Speaker 3: No, not really, but I think that's probably the right 1591 01:12:36,240 --> 01:12:36,600 Speaker 3: thing to do. 1592 01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:38,360 Speaker 1: Are you? 1593 01:12:39,479 --> 01:12:41,120 Speaker 2: What's your meal? What's your meal to cook? 1594 01:12:42,760 --> 01:12:48,120 Speaker 3: Mmm? The one thing I would cook. I don't love seafoods. 1595 01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:50,120 Speaker 3: So if some woman wants like salmon, no, no, no, 1596 01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:54,200 Speaker 3: we're out. For the most part. I love cooking pasta 1597 01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:58,439 Speaker 3: that's probably a little too heavy for a date. Maybe 1598 01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:02,200 Speaker 3: a nice carbonara. Though I love chicken palm, it's just 1599 01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:05,440 Speaker 3: gonna be too heavy. It's just sitting there afterwards, everybody's 1600 01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 3: you know, you're you're just you're uncomfortable. I have no idea, guys, honestly, 1601 01:13:10,240 --> 01:13:10,799 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. 1602 01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:14,880 Speaker 6: Just grill some steaks, guys, girls, some steaks, Give her 1603 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:17,000 Speaker 6: some Polpenno chips, and I promise. 1604 01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,240 Speaker 2: You that Isaac was gone.
