1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:05,000
Speaker 1: Hello Marlons fans, and welcome to the tradition of big

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: Fish small Pod for Tuesday, November thirtieth, two thousand twenty one.

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: And if you are new the small pod here, you'd

4
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,240
Speaker 1: like to give you all the information about the Marlins

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 1: for that particular day and the off season in ten

6
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: minutes or less. And Marlins fans, what a day it

7
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 1: was yesterday after Marlins announced the biggest tray so far

8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: since the Starling Marte and he sus Losardo into trade

9
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: deadline and acquired the biggest need pen the major league

10
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 1: squad catcher. They acquired Jacob Stallings from the Pittsburgh Pirates

11
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 1: for Zach Thompson, Kyle Nicholas, and Connor Scott. And I

12
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: have to say that this is just an A plus

13
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: trade for the Marlins. The Marlins get one of the

14
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: top defensive catchers in baseball, and you know, the catcher

15
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: position is just something that that Marlins have been struggling

16
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 1: with so much as of late. Joj Faro is not

17
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: the guy. He will probably get traded. The Padres are

18
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: actually looking to trade for jo Heyl Farrow. But this

19
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: is a really great trade for Miami. Brings defensively and

20
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: also helps the pitchers, as you know, he would help

21
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 1: guide the pictures the games. Well, it's Stallings the fly

22
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 1: ball to lap near the line by the wall head. Oh,

23
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: no way, Jacob Stallings just Claire the duck. He's not

24
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: a Cheatah, He's a lion. They do give up Zach Thompson,

25
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: which he was really good last season. He had a

26
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: round over a three era. He started as starter, went

27
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,279
Speaker 1: down to a spots starter, and then went down into

28
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: the bullpen as a reliever, and he really thrived in

29
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: that role. It looks like maybe in Pittsburgh poly being

30
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: around the back end starter for the Pirates. Connor Scott

31
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: we always the first draft pick from the new Marlons

32
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: regime back in twenty eighteen, and so far he's not

33
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: really developing as much as the Marlins would like. Hence

34
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 1: why he was a part of this trade. It looked

35
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: like maybe he was just thrown in there to sue

36
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: the deal for the Pirates, because I think Kyle Nicholas

37
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: is probably this real centerpiece of that trade, really what

38
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: the Pirates really want to get from Miami. But it's

39
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: a great trade for the Marlins. He's not giving up

40
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: guys like Max Meyrkley Watson, europ Eurie Perez, guys like that.

41
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: The Marlins have so much pitching depth and for prospects,

42
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 1: and just to give up, you know, Kyle Nicholas, that

43
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: they give up Zach Thompson was you know, expendable, and

44
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: then Connor Scott. They probably realized that they had to

45
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: give up an extra person to get someone like Jacob Stallings,

46
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: who also has three years of control a plus trade

47
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: for Miami. But for that over the weekend they did

48
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: sign as vat Garcia to a four year, over fifty

49
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: million dollar deal. I really do like that Trent, that

50
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: uh that signing. I I think he brings a lot

51
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: to the Marlins, especially outfielders, which is something that Marlins

52
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 1: also desperately need. He will give home runs hopefully remember

53
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: twenty or so, but the Marlins park is you know,

54
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: really picture friendly. But I still believe, you know, he

55
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: has really raw power and I think he will thrive

56
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: for the Marlins. He strikes out a lot, but I

57
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: think it'll probably go down, especially off of with a

58
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: w uh walk Rick. He is thirty years old, so

59
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: he'll be around thirty four by the time the contract

60
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: is over. It's a decent move. It's not really something

61
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: that will shock the system or the organization or even Baseball.

62
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 1: But it's a good, good first signing for the Marlins.

63
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: They still have plenty to do. I think Chris Taylor

64
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 1: should be a Marlin. I think that he will thrive

65
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: with the fifth th man. He loves him. He has

66
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: the ability to just play multiple positions with the Marlins.

67
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: Also need you could be in the nfield, they could

68
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: be in the outfield. It's just something that will help Miami.

69
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: Because the Marlins do need to make another signing. I

70
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 1: think they are out of Nicholas Canstiano's cause is Scott

71
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: Boris client. Scott Boris has been giving all his clients

72
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: major deals. He asked me for a lot of money

73
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: and most importantly, a lot of deals a lot of years.

74
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 1: And I don't think the Marlins wanna give eight nine

75
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: years to Nicholas Castiano's. They probably wanna be around as

76
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: Via Garcia around four years, maybe a fifth year. But

77
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: I think that's a little out of range for Miami,

78
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: so they probably settle on someone like Chris Taylor, hopefully,

79
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: but it really just depends what the Marlins want to do.

80
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: They also need to get some relievers. I think you

81
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 1: should Andrew Schafin or Joe Kelly. Rezzio Igalacias will be nice,

82
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 1: but it really depends on what salary or what contract

83
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: they want to give him. But it's been crazy, especially

84
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: in the NL East. When you look at the Mets,

85
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: who just signed Max Scherzer starring Marte, Mark Canna, and

86
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: Uno Escobar, they are building something over there. They're pitching

87
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: rotation is insane. When you first look at Jack the

88
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: Grim and mac Shurs. That's something that any team wants

89
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 1: to face. But I really look at their position players signing,

90
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: which is gonna be difficult for Miami really to go

91
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: up against, especially starring Martin. He also knows Miami. I

92
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: think that that those those are good sunning for the Mets.

93
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 1: But I'm really happy what the Marlins to do. Dot

94
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 1: Jacob Salgtray really caught everyone off guard yesterday. You know,

95
00:05:56,360 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: Zach Thompson, really great player, a great person, really came

96
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,919
Speaker 1: on strong this year, almost out of nowhere. Just you know,

97
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: have a he already three point twenty five. He's gonna

98
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,600
Speaker 1: do well in Pittsburgh. Just the one that really can't

99
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: really bite Miami in the behind is Kyle Nicholas. He

100
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,359
Speaker 1: has the ability to be major league ready prospect in

101
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: the coming years and be a starter. But I don't

102
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: think it's gonna really hinder too much in Miami. I

103
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: think there's pleased to finally have their catcher, especially three

104
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: years of control, really good behind behind the mint defensively,

105
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 1: and that's kind of like how modern catchers are. They're

106
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 1: not really the best at the plate, but behind it,

107
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: they are starting to become really good, especially defensively. More

108
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: defensive catchers that pure hitting, and that's kind of what

109
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: Strong's is. He leaps and bounds better than Joel Farrow.

110
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: And I think it's gonna do really great. You know,

111
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 1: just don't expect you know, twenty homeren S fifty home runs.

112
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 1: He had eight this year, So anyone, if probably under

113
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,119
Speaker 1: ten is really well. You you expect to see Jacob

114
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: Solling's hit rapp But this is our eight plus plus signing.

115
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: I love it so much. Sandy's deal finally got official

116
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: five years. I believe fifty three million dollars fifty six

117
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 1: in that rage, I'm not really sure, but that's a

118
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: really great signing. Both underrated signing in Major League Baseball

119
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: I think you know, another another year, after a fifth

120
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: year for if you want, for around twenty one million

121
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: dollars a club option Sandy by that time that comes,

122
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: and he's just shown his potential as being a true ace.

123
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: That is nothing. When you look at especially Max Serzer,

124
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 1: who's getting forty three million dollars annual average value, and

125
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: then you look at Sandy at that time, can just

126
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: be twenty one million dollars. That's really great, that's insane.

127
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: I love it. And also another big deal Baron Buckson,

128
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: who many felt we was gonna come to Miami and

129
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: a potential trade end up signing a seven year, one

130
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: hundred million dollar contract with the Twins. Wilands were definitely

131
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: not gonna pay that to Byron Buckston, especially you know

132
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: after one you were gonna have them for one year,

133
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: and even that one year could just be eighty games,

134
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: seventy games, who knows. But for for the Twins, they

135
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: have their guy, they have their start, that's what they

136
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: wanted to do with Byron Buckston. But for Miami training

137
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: for Jacob Salling sonning as the Garcia, I don't think

138
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: they're done yet. They're they're looking to trade roy Al Farrow,

139
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: and they do need relievers. Hopefully they could get someone

140
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: like a Razial or Chafin or something like that. But

141
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: I'm happy with what they got. I believed, I'm I'm sad.

142
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,920
Speaker 1: I got the biggest grin on my face right now.

143
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: Everyone should be ecstatic and really confident on what the

144
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: front office is doing. I think there are just better

145
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: things to come cause they stilled, maybe that one really

146
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 1: HU hitter in the infield, maybe like like Chris Taylor.

147
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 1: I stick it's probably gonna come to Miami. But with

148
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: that being said, it's great to be a Marlins fan,

149
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: so make sure to like share as a scrap wherever

150
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: you get to smile on it. To remember this always

151
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: always go fish
