1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: Hello Marlins fans, and welcome to the tradition of big

2
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: Fish Small Pod for Tuesday, April twenty six, two thousand,

3
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: twenty two. And if you run me to the small pod,

4
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: he would like to give you all the information about

5
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 1: the Marlons for that particular day all season long.

6
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 2: In ten minutes or less, and.

7
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: Marlins fans, I will be previewing this upcoming game today

8
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,279
Speaker 1: versus the Washington Nationals. It will be Miami at Washington

9
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 1: at seven five pm. And make sure to tune in

10
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: an hour before the game as we will be going

11
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: live with fitz Strip's Live previewing the game and getting

12
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,159
Speaker 1: ready for the entire series. But I will be focusing

13
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: on this game and what pitching matchup we have. We

14
00:00:54,200 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: have Sandy al Gandata versus Josiah Gray. Of you who

15
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: may not know who Josiah Gray is. He was traded

16
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: to Washington last season in the trade that sent Max

17
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: Scherzer and Trey Turner.

18
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: To the Dodgers.

19
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: As we just go back a little bit and talk

20
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: about where he came from and now where he's at.

21
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: Last year in twenty twenty one, his ERI was a

22
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: five to three, one and twelve game.

23
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 2: Starts sixty two pitches. It just not that was not good.

24
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: That was in twelve starts with Washington before Dodgers he

25
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: did at one start and some it all up thirteen

26
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: games started.

27
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 2: Five to four eight ERA. He was not good in

28
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: seventy innings in total.

29
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: But he really has turned it around this year in

30
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two two to one record, fourteen point one

31
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: innings pitched, whip is one three three and ERA a

32
00:01:59,280 --> 00:01:59,919
Speaker 1: three to one.

33
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 2: Four more with eighteen strikeouts and seven walks. Not bad.

34
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: I think is one of the better young pitchers in baseball.

35
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: I think he's only gonna get better. Washington, I think

36
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 1: really quick for him. Him and Juan Sota could be

37
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: like the one two punch of Juan Soto batting so

38
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: Sia Gray pitching. But this will be a tough matchup

39
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: for the Marlins. The Marlins do need to prove themselves here.

40
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: I think this will indicate where the Marlins are just

41
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: as as a team. They took a series from the Phillies.

42
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: They just took a series from the Braves, which is

43
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: also important. And this is a division game, and that

44
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: was at the bottom of the National League.

45
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: They are not a good team. Still a rebuilding mode.

46
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 1: Obviously, the really truly great player that they do have

47
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: is Juan Soto, but Juan Soda can't help this team

48
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: just all by himself. The Marlins are in position to

49
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 1: get to five hundred an inch closer to getting above

50
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 1: it and really starting forward on the.

51
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 2: Season, and it all starts playing against Washington.

52
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: If they can take all the games, if they can

53
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: beat Washington three times and improve himself from seven to

54
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: eight to ten and eight, things are looking great for

55
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: Miami as they come back and then face the nast

56
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 1: the Meritis.

57
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: Which I will be covering that game on Friday.

58
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 1: But this is really great and also Sandy obviously the

59
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: ace of the team.

60
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: Nineteen innings want to know one eight six e.

61
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: L It was just so incredible to see fifteen strikeouts,

62
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: seven walks. But this is gonna be one of the

63
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: better pitching matchups we do see over the weekend, and

64
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: it's gonna be really great. I also want to see

65
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: with Jeff Chisholm to see how he performs because especially

66
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: against that pitching and bullpen, and if he can continue

67
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: this hot streak keys on because Jaz has been arguably

68
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: the hottest hitter further Marrow and has really great I'm

69
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: getting national media attention, which is what you love to see,

70
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: and going a little bit on the Nationals and just

71
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: to talk about a little bit of what their team

72
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: and what they're doing offensively. They do have Juan Soto

73
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: who's hitting right now to forty two, but he has

74
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: a really high ops.

75
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: He's hitting home runs.

76
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 1: He leads the team in home runs, probably easily their

77
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: best player.

78
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 2: But the Als have some, you know, some guys you

79
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 2: should worry about.

80
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 1: Nelson Cruz who's in this older part of his career

81
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: in his forties, but that's a guy that can hit

82
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: a home run anytime any pitch against any pitcher. That's

83
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: definitely a guy to look out for it. And another

84
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: guy will be Josh Spell. He is dealing with a

85
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: hamstring issue from Saturday, but it really depends if he

86
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: comes in or or if they maybe take him out

87
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: for a couple of games in that series. But that's

88
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 1: another guy that that the Marlins should look out for

89
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: who's having a really great start to this season. Three

90
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: forty five ps, slugging five oh nine, two home runs.

91
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: Another really great player for them, and that's just someone

92
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: to look out for so obviously Juan Soto will be

93
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: the guy that all that every that they should look

94
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: out for in every game, but other guys they might

95
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: sneak up, or Josh Bell and Nelson Cruz.

96
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 2: And then we go to the pitching.

97
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 1: Uh they have Gray as as mentioned, we also have

98
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: Eric Fadey starting pitcher, who's probably gonna pitch on one

99
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 1: of the later matchups and who to pitch the Wednesday.

100
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,559
Speaker 1: And then we also have Rogers versus Rogers and Josh

101
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 1: Rogers versus Trevor that's gonna happen. But for Tuesday, I

102
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 1: think that the Marlins should.

103
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 2: Take that game. Obviously, it will be a little harder.

104
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: You shall probably be the hardest game to get the

105
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 1: win out of the three fence. Sosiah Graig will be

106
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: pitching for the Nationals, but it's not to worry. Sandy

107
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: will be pitching. I do predict the Martins still win

108
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: this game, and it really comes out to not even pitching,

109
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: just what the Marnins could do offensively.

110
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,599
Speaker 2: They can just get half of what they.

111
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: Did against the Braves on Sunday, then the manus should

112
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: be a okay, easy peasy.

113
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 2: They should easily win this game.

114
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: You need to get a couple hits, a couple of runs.

115
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 1: I would love to see from So Laire and Avvy

116
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: as they did have a good series versus the Brays.

117
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 2: I think those guys just have to.

118
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: Just, you know, so a little bit, do a little something,

119
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: maybe hit a home run here and there, or a

120
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: couple doubles, get some hits, get those guys going that

121
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: it's all takeoff for Miami and dependents on Garcia and Hilaire.

122
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 2: And so Haggie too.

123
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: Haggi has not hit a home run. He's had a

124
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 1: really very slow start to his season. I mean, hitting

125
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: two six see just nothing, no home runs, only four

126
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: RBIs and Jazz is almost a complete opposite. Four home

127
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: runs fifteen RBIs.

128
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 2: That is just crazy to even think about from Jazz.

129
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 1: So you know, his fifteen RBIs come third in the

130
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 1: National League, and I think that's gonna be the main player.

131
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 2: To look out for this game for Miami.

132
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: See how Jazz competes against Josiah great, but I do

133
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: have Miami winning and this is a game that everyone

134
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: should watch and definitely a series for Miami really important

135
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: because it is usually the teams that are rebuilding it

136
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: and aren't really looking to win now that could definitely

137
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: cause problems for Miami, So that doesn't.

138
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 2: All for me.
