The hire 15 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: of these two players in terms of draft picks was 16 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: like it to the Marlins.

Beaver's were looking for Friday Night Ace 22 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 3: in the rotation after trans sellers last year. The year prior, 23 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 3: excuse me, exhausted his eligibility. May's kind of like a 24 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 3: combination of sellers informer Oregon State pitcher Kevin Abeles so 25 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 3: very much as a guy that's going to go out 26 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 3: there attack the zone, doesn't let the moment get too 27 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 3: big for him either if things aren't going his way, 28 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 3: you know, kind of resets that and kind of he's 29 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: kind of cool, calm and collected, but also too he'll show, 30 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 3: He'll show some he'll show some energy, he'll show some charistmas, 31 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 3: some some kind of some juice there a little bit 32 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 3: as well too. Like I saw that after a while 33 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 3: at the rivalry series game against Oregon, I was watching 34 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: that his career high and strikeouts twenty one. He he 35 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 3: got checked for for sticky stuff just because the Ducks 36 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 3: could hit anything off of. 37 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 2: Him at all. 38 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 3: And when like he basically was gonna come out of 39 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 3: the game at that at that point in time and 40 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 3: they're gonna go to the bullpen, but that little like 41 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 3: that little check was the thing that kept him going, 42 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 3: that kept him fired up for that game and kept 43 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 3: him in the game to get that career performance. 44 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: So yeah, he's very much, I would say. 45 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 3: Kind of that kind of mix with with like with 46 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: just a little you know, we'll attack that zone pretty well. 47 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know you mentioned him being a transfer 48 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: coming from Arizona to Oregon State. You know, looking at 49 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: some of his stats really just improved, you know, tenfold, 50 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, half his era. What was so special about 51 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: that Oregon State team? What did maybe he bring and 52 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 1: maybe how what did they tap into aiden to get 53 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: to the point where he was a second round drive pick? 54 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,079 Speaker 3: I mean Dorman Dorman, pitching coach shed Oregon State. Rich 55 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 3: Dorman has done a really good job in developing a 56 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 3: lot of pitchers over over the years. I mean, Cooper 57 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 3: Jersey is one of the best examples of being developed, 58 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 3: and he's rising up through the Saint Louis Cardinals pharm 59 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 3: system right now. But really it's just I think it's 60 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 3: the coaching is a big big thing for that, and 61 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 3: they kind of they're also kind of very much that 62 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 3: that whole like bullpen and that whole staff in general is. 63 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 2: Really really really good too. Like Jacob kamats. 64 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 3: May's teammate in high school and then now at Oregon State, 65 00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 3: He's he could be a Friday guy anywhere else, but 66 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 3: but having those two guys at the top of that 67 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: rotation is really big, just really just it's a testament 68 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 3: to coaching and his development. 69 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know with Aiden, what is it maybe 70 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: about him as a person that really helped this Oregon 71 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: State team really get to they wanted to be last season? 72 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: You know, lots of players got drafted from that team 73 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: last year, cleaning one overall pick with Travis Dezana. But 74 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: talk to us a little bit about maybe inmate the 75 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: person how he is with teammates coaches, to maybe get 76 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: a better understanding of. 77 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: Them, may at least in like the locker room environment, 78 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 3: I should say. Rather it's a it's a thing of like, hey, 79 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 3: there's one goal that we're all going towards, and that's 80 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 3: going to Omaha, that dog pile, that national championship, and 81 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 3: everybody's bought in, regardless of kind of where you come from. 82 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: And and like that even show too with Elijah Hanlin 83 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 3: who transferred in from Washington State to Oregon State this 84 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 3: past year, who ended up signing with the Dodgers. It's 85 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 3: very much that mind instead of like this, the star 86 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: of the team is the team. There's nobody that's kind 87 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 3: of above that. Sure, Yeah, Bazana gets all the attention 88 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 3: for like the right reasons, but like for May, it 89 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 3: just kind of was like, Hey, I'm gonna come in, 90 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 3: put my head down work, and he's very like it's 91 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 3: a very family kind of front uh environment in there, 92 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 3: and he's always like even when he's pulled out of 93 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 3: the game and they go to the bullpen, like he's 94 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 3: the first guy out there, high fiving pitcher coming off 95 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 3: the mound, Like I saw that with Nelson kel Joe. 96 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 3: I've even seen that too when he's not playing or 97 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 3: he's taking a day off on a Saturday or on 98 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 3: a Sunday, he's doing the exact same thing for both 99 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 3: Canats and Sigura. 100 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 2: So he's very much like you know, it's very much like. 101 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 3: That type of type of mentality that this that the 102 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 3: team has, and I mean being a three time national 103 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 3: championship like championship winning team, like you know. 104 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 2: You there, that's goal.

And in my time here at least 107 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 3: in Oregon State, they've been close. They've been close, but 108 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 3: they've they've they've fell short in the super Regionals for 109 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 3: two teams that definitely should have made it to Omaha 110 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 3: those respective years. 111 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, with aid and a big thing. 112 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: I am looking at some of his stats and everything 113 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: that was there was just maybe his ability to just 114 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: if he maybe had a poor performance to really just 115 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: from that. 116 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 2: You mentioned that Oregon game where. 117 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: He had forty strikeouts eight innings the game before that, 118 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: I believe against Cow I'm looking out here, nine hits, 119 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: six earned runs, only four strikeouts.

This is a big game, 131 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 3: this big rivalry game like this is you know one 132 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 3: of those moments where I'm like, hey, like you gotta 133 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 3: lock in. And arguably the biggest like games at Goss 134 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 3: outside of a regional or super regional. Is that organ 135 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 3: series and that's something where like I it's you know, 136 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 3: and it's one game and be like, Okay, go on 137 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 3: to the next one, keep going at it. Not like 138 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: letting that performance get to him. He's very much kind 139 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 3: of you know, hey, I had that performance, I'll flush 140 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 3: it out, move on the next Like that's that's the 141 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 3: best way I can kind. 142 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 2: Of kind of describe that. 143 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know, I had talk about the next 144 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: player that the Marlins did draft from Oregon State going 145 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: down to the seventeenth round, Michaeh McDowell outfielder. Talk to 146 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: us a little bit about Micah me his ability there, 147 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: senior leader from or State. What did maybe bring to 148 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: the team to that point, because you mentioned, you know, 149 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: it's a team where high draft picks Bizana Aiden may 150 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: you know, Mike Poley maybe fell a little bit, you know, 151 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 1: a very underrated picked by the Marlins. What would you 152 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: say a little bit about Micah his time with the Beavers. 153 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 3: Micah's been one of those long veteran presidents that's been 154 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 3: on the team for a while, always hitting that two 155 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 3: hole right behind Bizano's guy that can get on base arguably, 156 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 3: I think for this season in particular, like sure Bizana was, 157 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 3: you know, the one that that everybody kind of pitched 158 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 3: around and and intentionally walked at times. But like at 159 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 3: the same time he do that, you got Michael McDowell 160 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 3: who can put the ball in play anywhere on that field. 161 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 3: And and I and I think part of the reason 162 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 3: why he fell as much as he did was he 163 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 3: was injured and that missed some time. I know Brady Casper, 164 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 3: felt teammate of Micah, has also missed some time with 165 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 3: some injury, and even Aiden May did too. But but 166 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 3: but like regardless of regardless of injury and performance, I 167 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 3: think that Micah is a guy that can kind of 168 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 3: come in there and adjust pretty well to the MLB speed. 169 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 3: And even with like Bizana's success this season, I think 170 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 3: part of you can attribute that a little bit to McDowell. 171 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 2: Like McDowell's very good, very good, very underrated player. 172 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 3: I mean that that lineup for Oregon State this past season, 173 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 3: I mean Bazana lead off, and then you have a 174 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 3: very deep, uh two through nine spot where anybody can 175 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 3: anybody can put that ball in play, and even the 176 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: bottom half of the order is just as deadly as 177 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 3: the top. So I I really do think that like 178 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 3: McDowell is is are is a stealer at that at 179 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 3: that pick and by far with what what he brings 180 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 3: onto onto the field, plus his defense is arguably some 181 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 3: of the best I've seen my years covering baseball here 182 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 3: at Oregon State. 183 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: You know, again, you know with some of his stats, 184 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: you're just his ability to just continuous to play and 185 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: get at that just looking at it. You know, in 186 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,559 Speaker 1: college he has over five hundred at that. You don't 187 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: see that a lot, especially with these maybe playing forty 188 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: to fifty sixty games at most. What's his ability you 189 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: mentioned being there long term as that veteran being, you know, 190 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: day in day out, and maybe how he can bring 191 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: that to pro ball. 192 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 2: That I would kind of say that like the way that. 193 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 3: Canon and and Ryan Gibson kind of go about the 194 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 3: whole played approach is like kind of sitting for you know, 195 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 3: that that pitch that you're gonna you're gonna take, or 196 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 3: or like hey, let the guy you know walk you 197 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 3: like they always will kind of go for for those counts. 198 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 3: Like even like mcdalell can draw a lot of walks 199 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: as well too. And just having those kind of the 200 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 3: amount of appearances and that kind of plate presence is 201 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: something that's really big for him, just seeing that a 202 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 3: ton at the college level, and I think that only 203 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 3: benefits him there and and even to like that sort 204 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 3: of presence of wanting to, you know, do whatever is 205 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 3: needed for the team to win it. That's that's something 206 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 3: that easily I think is translatable over to pro ball. 207 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: So before I let you go with Maca and Aiden, 208 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: talk to us a little bit maybe what they brought 209 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: to the team coming into this season. Again, there was 210 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: a lot of hype and you know, we mentioned Bazanna, 211 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: but what was it about these two players that maybe 212 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: made this Oregon State team so special? 213 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 3: Starting with in May, I think that really like he 214 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 3: was literally he was the guy that I think a 215 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: lot of fans kind of could point and say, hey, 216 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,320 Speaker 3: if we need to win this. 217 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 2: At the time before the Lexington Super Regional, I. 218 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 3: Should add it's like, hey, we're probably in a good 219 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 3: spot where where we could win two games in a 220 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 3: row on the pitching of both in May and Jake Kamatz, 221 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 3: because those two guys were good one too. And then sure, 222 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 3: if it needs to go to a Game three, Cigura 223 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 3: and we can use the bullpen like that. That's something 224 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 3: where I think people felt a little more confident in 225 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:46,360 Speaker 3: the pitching this year. And May May showed it as well. 226 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 3: He was able to fill up that zone and attack attack, 227 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 3: posing hitters really well to just being that kind of 228 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 3: leader there along with along with Kamats and other guys 229 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 3: that have been there for a while while. And then McDowell, 230 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 3: I mean, that guy that spent five years at Oregon 231 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 3: State has seen seen a lot of success, a lot 232 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 3: of failures as well too. I mean, not being able 233 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 3: to make it back to College World Series. That's I 234 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 3: think anything kind of short of that for Oregon State. 235 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: It's considered a disappointment a little bit, especially too, for 236 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:25,719 Speaker 3: what this. 237 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 2: Team was capable of this year. 238 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 3: This was definitely a team I thought that could have 239 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 3: could have made an Omaha. It's just a few things 240 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 3: didn't go their way and the course of the season 241 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 3: they ultimately had to play super regional on the road. 242 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 3: But McDowell two was I think arguably just as important 243 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 3: offensively as Bizana, even if like Bizana wasn't you know, 244 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: having a great game McDowell and and three in three 245 00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 3: spot four Uh, for either Gavin Turley, Brady Casper, those 246 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 3: those guys could pick up the slack too as well 247 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 3: as the bottom of the order as well. And I 248 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 3: really do think that McDowell played a big role in 249 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 3: that lineup in addition, in addition to Bizana as well, 250 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: and even towards the end of end of the season, 251 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 3: it was a lot of McDowell and it was a 252 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 3: lot of a lot of Elijah Haneline as well too. 253 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 3: So even even Bizanna had, you know, some of those moments, 254 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 3: those big moments, highlight moments. 255 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 2: It's just those guys that don't really get that attention. 256 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 3: Also played a big role in the Beaver's winning the 257 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 3: Corvallis Regional. 258 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: So that's gonna do it for us here, big fish, 259 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: small pot.
