1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the official show. Eli Sussman here, managing

2
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: editor of fish Stripes. Frequently on this podcast as well

3
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 1: as on fishstripes dot com and our other platforms, we

4
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: discuss the impressive depth and upside that the Miami Marlins

5
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 1: organization currently has. There are so many quality players that

6
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: you could be you could divide them up into two

7
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,239
Speaker 1: or even three rosters. You would still feel confident in

8
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: their potential to compete. I can prove it right now,

9
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: That's what the show is all about. Better yet, we

10
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: can prove it together, not just me. This is the

11
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 1: Marlins Dream Draft where Marlin's experts assembled their own twelve

12
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: man mini squads of must have active players, where I

13
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: invite actual Marlins experts onto the show and just try

14
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: to keep up with them during exercise. It's now the

15
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:04,679
Speaker 1: second time that we are trying this dream draft format.

16
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: Alex Carver aka mister Fish on the Farm, thank you

17
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: for coming on.

18
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: Hey Eli, thanks for asking me to do it. I'm

19
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 2: really excited for this. It should be awesome.

20
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: And Daniel de Vivo joining us all the way from Coltonumbia.

21
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 3: Welcome Daniel, Hey Eli, this is amazing man. Thanks a

22
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 3: lot for inviting me, super fun, super excited. You both

23
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 3: know I'm gonna win.

24
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 1: But yeah, Alex and Daniel, they co host the Swimming

25
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: Upstream podcast, available wherever you are listening right now. And

26
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: this exercise is most valuable to our audience when we

27
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,200
Speaker 1: actually know what we're talking about. And that's why I

28
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 1: can't think of any two people better to bring on

29
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: in this situation because they know the Marlin the minor

30
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: league system inside and out. And that's how you kind

31
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: of put this all together between the active players that

32
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: we all see on the big screen and the ones

33
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: that are coming up on deck right behind them. The

34
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: next wave of time for this Marlins Dream Draft. I

35
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: send you guys the rules ahead of time, but we're

36
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: going to go for the rules right now that I've

37
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: ironed out a little bit from the first experiment that

38
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: we did with this back in July with the Fish

39
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: Army guys with Shane and Jacob back then, and I

40
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: feel like I've ironed out the technicalities with this to

41
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 1: make it really valuable and exciting and unpredictable. So the

42
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: objective is to build the best possible team for the

43
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: next ten years. Just imagine for the twenty twenty one

44
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: through twenty thirty seasons, putting together a team of guys

45
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: that are going to be productive at the major league

46
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: level during that interval. It's going to be a twelve

47
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: round dream draft. We're going to draft thirty six total players.

48
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: Twelve for me, twelve for Alex, twelve for Daniel. Each

49
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: team must draft players to fill the following positions. Catcher,

50
00:02:54,360 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: first base, second base, third base, shortstop, three outfielders, the

51
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: designated hitter, a right handed pitcher, left handed pitcher, and

52
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: a wild card that could be anybody at any position

53
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: that you really want to squeeze onto the roster after

54
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: those regulars. All players in the Marlins organization right now

55
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: are eligible, from the twenty twenty draft picks that are

56
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: just getting through their first summer of development to the

57
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: oldest vets that are still at the end of their contracts,

58
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: still technically Miami Marlins, and the best part to move

59
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: it along to get through thirty six players in a

60
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: not too ridiculous amount of time. I'm going to have

61
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: a two minute time limit in between picks. When the

62
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: previous person is announcing the name of their pick, I'm

63
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: going to be keeping my own timer and We're going

64
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: to keep the explanations pretty short. You know, when you

65
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: pick a player, you want everybody to know why that

66
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: player is so great. But we're going to want to

67
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: be relatively concise with those explanations to allow for some

68
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: crosstalk and to keep things flowing along any questions for

69
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: either of you. No, let's do it ready, man, all right.

70
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: The only thing that hasn't been decided is the draft

71
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: order the three of us, obviously the in this situation.

72
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think there is like a unanimous

73
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 1: number one pick in this situation, so maybe it's not

74
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,840
Speaker 1: super duper important, but we're gonna be going one two

75
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: three and then one two three, one two three. Whoever

76
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 1: holds the first pick also picks first in the second

77
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: round and the third round in the fourth round, so

78
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: it is an advantage. The way we're gonna decide it

79
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: is with a trivia question that I've I've written down

80
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: days ago, but I promised not to research it. I

81
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: don't I think you guys can see me. I'm gonna

82
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 1: close my eyes so that I can't even look it

83
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: up while we're having this. Uh, well, we're taking our guesses.

84
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,559
Speaker 1: The trivia question is during the twenty twenty season, how

85
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 1: many games did the Miami Marlins win at Marlins Park?

86
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: How many true home wins did they get at Marlins

87
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: Park this year? I don't want you to overthink it.

88
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna go to Daniel first. Just give me a

89
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: number the number of wins at Marlins Park that you

90
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: think Marlins had this year?

91
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 3: Sixteen?

92
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: All right, Alex, you can't guess the same number, either

93
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 1: a higher or lower number. What is your guess for

94
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 1: the number of wins at Marlins Park?

95
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: Wow, it's a good question. They were on the road

96
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 2: off a lot, weren't they exactly?

97
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: Yes?

98
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 4: Yeh, even if it was home games on the road, right,

99
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 4: So I'll say.

100
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 1: No, no, these are only these are only games at Marlins.

101
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 4: Park, correct, So I'll say nineteen games.

102
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: You think the Marlins? All right? I promised I didn't

103
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: research it. I still don't know the answer right now,

104
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 1: but I'm confident it is lower than both of those

105
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 1: numbers because they played most of their games away from

106
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: Marlins Park sixty game schedule. My guess is gonna be eleven.

107
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: And now I'm going to actually look it up. Daniel. Well,

108
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 1: at sixteen, I said nineteen I had eleven, and I

109
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 1: know it's and the answer is, the answer is exactly eleven.

110
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 1: I promise I didn't know it.

111
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 3: I just knew to come, we believe you.

112
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: All I knew is they played less than half their

113
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: games at Marlins Park because they weren't able to make

114
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: up all those dates and get the points to travel

115
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: down there.

116
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

117
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely, yeah, I just knew it was smaller than sixteen.

118
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: So therefore I get the number one pick. Daniel will

119
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: go second, Alex will go third, but the number one

120
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: overall pick in the Marlins Dream Draft Team, ELI selects

121
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:54,799
Speaker 1: outfielder JJ Bladet. Jj Blade was the first round pick

122
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: for the Marlins in twenty nineteen. Instantly given a very

123
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: difficult assignment in High A Jupiter, and one that he

124
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,919
Speaker 1: really especially towards the end of that summer, really showed

125
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: flashes of potential, got the invite to Major League Spring

126
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: training in twenty twenty, continued to impress over there, spent

127
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: the whole summer developing at the Alternative training Site. Vanderbilt

128
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: product just turned twenty three years old, and even though

129
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: he's had so few experience in real, live minor league games,

130
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 1: I think he could be up in the majors by

131
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: the end of twenty twenty one and be a mainstay

132
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: in their lineup for the better part of a decade

133
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: as a solid, above average everyday outfielder, if not something

134
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: a lot more than that, someone that could be an

135
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: all star when everything clicks right, someone that just checks

136
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: a lot of the boxes you want from the tools,

137
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: he has, the intangibles, he brings, the work ethic. I

138
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,200
Speaker 1: thought he was the safest guy I had looking forward

139
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: to the next decade, and now Daniel from number two overall,

140
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: everybody left on the board and holds on before putting

141
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: you on the clock. I'm going to try to share

142
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: my screen. And now you can get creative with these

143
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: picks because of the defensive versatility that allow players in

144
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: this organization have. So when you pick a player, be

145
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: sure to specify his position, just to be totally clear.

146
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 3: Sounds good. I'm really excited about jj Eli. He looks

147
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 3: like the real deal. So he's so polished, I think

148
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: that's the word. So yeah, great, pick.

149
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 1: There, all right, Daniel, whenever you're ready, I'll give you

150
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: a couple more seconds if you need it. With your

151
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: number one pick, the number two overall pick in this draft,

152
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,719
Speaker 1: who do you have in mind? All right?

153
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 3: So for my first round pick, I'm going to go

154
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 3: with right handers six Do Sanchez.

155
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 5: Six Sanchez the top pitching prospect in the Marlin system

156
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 5: and one of the top pitching prospects across all of

157
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 5: baseball through out the seventh Here it comes from sixth

158
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 5: to do ground ball. That's Jazz. He looks to first.

159
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,680
Speaker 5: It's oh, Marlins win and it's a complete game for

160
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 5: six do Si Chezz.

161
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 3: Not much to say that everybody doesn't know. Kid is amazing,

162
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 3: has an amazing future. I do see him as our

163
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 3: ace for the next ten years, hopefully if the Marlins

164
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 3: can take care of the contractual obligations. One hundred miles

165
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 3: per hour fastball, amazing change up, beautiful control, and still

166
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 3: needs to develop, still needs to learn a few things.

167
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 3: But he's ready and uh, he'll be here for a

168
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,840
Speaker 3: long time. So he's my right handed pitcher obviously.

169
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean a couple of the starts that he

170
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,719
Speaker 1: had this year. I mean a number of ways that

171
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,720
Speaker 1: you could slice the first couple games of his career

172
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: back to back. The way that he pounded the strike

173
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: zone and the way that he generated grounders, like it was.

174
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 1: There's just not a whole lot of precedent for what

175
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,599
Speaker 1: he could be. Of course, the overall stats at the

176
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 1: end of his rookie season were more more he came

177
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 1: back down to earth a little bit, and then of

178
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 1: course once the postseason started, that postseason debut was pretty

179
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: impressive too. And then right after that, like pouring some

180
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: water on that with how he struggled against the furious

181
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 1: but tiny sample. The peripherals were awesome this year, and

182
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: he was. We had our eye on him throughout all

183
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,599
Speaker 1: of twenty nineteen at Double A like the kind of

184
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: success that he had down there, just a man among boys.

185
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: So it's only a matter of time until he puts

186
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: it all together at the major league level.

187
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 2: I like it.

188
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 1: I like it, and I can't blame you one bit

189
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: for going with him number three. Pick Alex a couple

190
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: more seconds here on the clock if you need it,

191
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: but once you make your decision, let's hear it.

192
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's kind of here. Picking third, I could go

193
00:10:59,080 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 2: one of two ways.

194
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 4: I could with one of the kids.

195
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 2: That I could go with the guy who is already

196
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 2: at the major league level and producing and who I

197
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,719
Speaker 2: think the Marlins will keep around here with Kim Ang

198
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 2: and Derek Jeter. But I think I'm gonna leave that

199
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 2: guy to you, Daniel, I think you'll pick him, and

200
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 2: I'll leave that to you. But I will pick shortstop

201
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 2: Jazz Chisholm. I am picking shortstop Jazz Chisolm for the

202
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 2: reasons because he's great not only on the field, but

203
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 2: he's fantastic off the field. This guy really endeared himself

204
00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 2: to fans when we had fans in spring training. I mean,

205
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 2: I was seeing kids before COVID and everything happened. I

206
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: was seeing kids buying him on open boxes of sour

207
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 2: patch and handing them through the netting, and he was

208
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 2: handing them baseballs in return. Just stuff like that that

209
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 2: I saw that made him stand out to me off

210
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: the field and then on the field.

211
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 4: He speaks for himself. Some of the quickest hands in

212
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 4: the organization.

213
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 2: Has a little bit to clean up with the swing

214
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,319
Speaker 2: and miss, could use to stay back on the ball

215
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 2: a little bit more, but can pay both middle infield spots.

216
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 2: Great speed, you know, the bat speed to carry the

217
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 2: ball for power. So Jash, I think this guy checks

218
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 2: boxes across the organization like JJ Blade who went first

219
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 2: overall here as a guy who can do it in

220
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 2: every way that he needs to get it done. So,

221
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 2: Josh chiselm my number three.

222
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: Jazz went number one overall the first time I did

223
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: this draft with the Fish Army guys. They love Jazz.

224
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,640
Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people is their favorite player,

225
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 1: even regardless of what he did on the field. He's uh,

226
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: he's magnetic, that personality that he has and those those

227
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 1: tools alone are crazy good. Uh. I don't know what

228
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 1: you were alluding to prior to that pick, if you

229
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 1: were hinting at Son in particular, that that was going

230
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: to fall to Daniel. But with the number four overall

231
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 1: pick my second rounder, I'm just looking at the depth

232
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 1: chart that I put together ahead of time. I did

233
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 1: a little bit of prep, and the next guy on

234
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: my board is Brian Anderson Base there you go, I

235
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 1: mean yeah, I mean Brian was. He was the guy

236
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: that I took in the first rounder the first time

237
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: we did this exercise too. These you know what he is?

238
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: Every year now three full major league seasons for the Marlins.

239
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: He's been among their best players in each of those seasons,

240
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,079
Speaker 1: and this year there are certain ways that he took

241
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: a step forward. Some particular things he did defensively that

242
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: were even better than ever at third base for a

243
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: guy that, I guess in this kind of situation, you

244
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: could also slot him as an outfielder. He has played

245
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 1: a lot of his major league career to this point

246
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,719
Speaker 1: in right field, but finally got to settle in a

247
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: third base. Throughout the short and twenty twenty season. He

248
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: made a lot of errors, but if you look past

249
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 1: that and actually watch him every day, he's definitely a

250
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 1: plus at set at that position. His home run right

251
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: this year was better than ever before, more swing and

252
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: miss than ever before. As well. You look up and

253
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: he's going to be twenty eight early on in this

254
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: upcoming year, so figuratively entering his prime right now, conceivably

255
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: could be a guy that plays another ten years in

256
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: the big leagues, But realistically, I'm not even planning on

257
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: that in this scenario, I'd be happy if he gives

258
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: has another five or six years as a true everyday

259
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 1: player and an above average everyday player that could reach

260
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: slightly higher heights, and he's already reached to this point,

261
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,959
Speaker 1: but the floor is pretty high on him just because

262
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: of all the ways that he impacts winning and the

263
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 1: way that some of not the super flashiest guy, but

264
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: sneaky athletic, and especially he had that one signature play

265
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: this year, that bare handed play that made Braxton Garrett's

266
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 1: jaw drop. That he's sneaky marketable as well. He does

267
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: some things that fans can really get behind, and we've

268
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: seen that. We started the pay b a momentum probably

269
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: over a year ago, and I think a lot of

270
00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: fans are behind just what Alex said before locking him

271
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: up long term without further ado. Number five overall, pick

272
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: back to Daniel, who are you adding to your squad?

273
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 3: This one is a strategic, but I think it's also

274
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 3: the right the right guy to grab here. With my

275
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 3: next pick, I am grabbing first baseman Lewinds. Amazing hitter

276
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 3: from the left side, beautiful power. He does not strike

277
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 3: out as often as you think from a from a

278
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 3: power guy, and it's just a beautiful swing. And combining

279
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 3: that just amazing defense at first base. You saw glimpses

280
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 3: of it this year. Well, he didn't hit the ground

281
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 3: running as as as many of us wanted to. Offensively,

282
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,760
Speaker 3: he did not miss a beat at defense. You know,

283
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 3: just his his hands, his footwork, everything was amazing. To

284
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 3: watch and you just know, you know, he's he's going

285
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 3: to be manning first base for the Marlins for a

286
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 3: long time.

287
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: I love it. I love it.

288
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, good luck fighting first basement guys.

289
00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: Exactly. That's a good strategy because of the drop off

290
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: of as a I mean, especially defensively, he is like,

291
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: he's far and away. He's incredible relative to the other

292
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: options the Marlins haven't. He's one of the few guys

293
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 1: that we can actually watch play baseball during the winter.

294
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: Right now, he's with his winter ball team in the

295
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: Dominican Republic, and he's already shown some nice flashes there after.

296
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: You know, the rough major league debut this year in

297
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: a limited sample, got about thirty seconds left if you

298
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: want it, Alex between making your pick, but whatever, it's

299
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,120
Speaker 1: ready in the second rounds joining up with Jazz, Chisholm,

300
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: whoever you got.

301
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I think I'm ready to go here.

302
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 2: Eli, I'm gonna take a guy here, and I kind

303
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 2: of have it strategically based here too. You know, with

304
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 2: this pick, I was definitely gonna go a pitcher. Now

305
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 2: it's between two guys for me because they're both still there,

306
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna go with twenty twenty first round pick,

307
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 2: Max Meyer. I am taking Max Meyer here with this

308
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: pick in the second round of your draft. This guy

309
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: is already so polished. I mean, obviously we haven't seen

310
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 2: him play yet for the Marlins. We you know, very

311
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 2: limited showings for him, you know, in a big league

312
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 2: uniform so far. But as far as everything that we

313
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 2: see in everything that we hear from college scouts, this

314
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 2: guy is going to be ready to contribute pretty quickly.

315
00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 2: I see him starting next minor league season in Double A.

316
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 2: I could see him making it up to the majors

317
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 2: possibly by the end of the year, depending how things

318
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 2: go with scheduling and everything like that.

319
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:33,440
Speaker 4: With the third pick.

320
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 6: Of the twenty twenty MLB Draft, the Miami Marlins select

321
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 6: Max Meyer, a right handed pitcher from the University of Minnesota.

322
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 4: Max Meyer celebrating a huge night.

323
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 6: The dynamic delivery is so athletic six foot What comes

324
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 6: out of his arm ninety seven eight ninety nine miles

325
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,679
Speaker 6: an hour. This is like dynamic electric arm. This is

326
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 6: an alpha male type guy. This is the slider that

327
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 6: everybody's talking about when they watch him. It is that

328
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 6: easily he is big league reading.

329
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 4: This guy could throw the baseball.

330
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: But this guy's got heat. He's got two more pitches

331
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 2: behind it. You know, he's People knock his side a

332
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 2: little bit, they say, Kenny keeps up. You know, the arm,

333
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,880
Speaker 2: the stress on the arm isact really gonna wear on him.

334
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 2: I don't think it will. I think his armslot is

335
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 2: so polished. He throws everything from such a similar arm angle.

336
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,639
Speaker 2: I think this guy is gonna stay around. I think

337
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 2: he's gonna stay healthy, and I think he's gonna be,

338
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 2: you know, next to six though, and maybe Edward Cabrera.

339
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be, you know, right in there

340
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 2: fighting for a rotation spot every single year, including you know, possibly.

341
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 4: Twenty twenty one, definitely twenty twenty two. So taking Max

342
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 4: Meyer here.

343
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: I'm just as hype for him as you are. Weah

344
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: that the Marlins are very insistent is gonna be quick

345
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: to the majors. Uh there were. They tried to suggest

346
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 1: that he even had a chance to reach the majors

347
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty and I never really thought into that.

348
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 1: I thought they were gonna be more careful with him

349
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 1: as they should be. But yeah, we'll be seeing him

350
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: pretty soon. And he's got incredible ceiling on him with

351
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 1: my third round pick. We're here at number seven overall. Yeah,

352
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 1: I'm worried about the alternatives at first base as we

353
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 1: go on, so I'm going to take care of that

354
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: position right now with first baseman Garrett Cooper. Cooper had

355
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: in limited action this year, you could argue that on

356
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: and at that basis, he was the best hitter in

357
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 1: the Marlins lineup when he was healthy, missed a lot

358
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,199
Speaker 1: of time because of COVID, and that kind of follows

359
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: a trends with his career where he just has had

360
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: awful luck with staying healthy and staying on the field,

361
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: and so much of it out of his control, obviously,

362
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 1: this being the best example of that. When he's been healthy, though,

363
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: as a Marlin, he's been not just this year, but

364
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: also for much of twenty nineteen. He's been great. He's

365
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:53,160
Speaker 1: been like everyday caliber player, which is a great find

366
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: considering where he was in his career when the Marlins

367
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 1: acquired him from the Yankees. I mean, frankly, they basically

368
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 1: picked off the scrap heave. The Yankees thought he was

369
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 1: completely disposable, and what he's shown, aside from like solidly

370
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 1: above average offensive production, is the fact that his peripheral stats,

371
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 1: when you look the beauties of stat cast showing the

372
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,680
Speaker 1: raw power that this guy has, it's it's incredible. It's

373
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: right up there with anybody else in this Marlins organization.

374
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 1: A lot of the longest home runs that we've seen

375
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,560
Speaker 1: from any Marlins player the last couple of years. The

376
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,479
Speaker 1: way he can hit to all fields and doesn't get

377
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: too pole happy, doesn't really get into extended slumps of

378
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 1: swinging and swinging and missing at the plate either. I mean,

379
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: what you need to be careful of is his durability,

380
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 1: because some of it is bad luck. Honestly, can't chop

381
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: up all of it to that there are concerns about

382
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: whether he can truly be a guy that plays one

383
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty games during the season. He hasn't shown it,

384
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 1: and that's kind of a risk that you're taking here.

385
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: Also with his age, the fact that he's about to

386
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: turn thirty, he's a guy that there are players that

387
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 1: have had unlucky careers where they just haven't stayed healthy

388
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: during their quote unquote prime and by the time they're ready,

389
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: they you know, their skills start to disappear. So this one,

390
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: I know, is a bit of a gamble, but I

391
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: think relative to the position and the alternatives here on

392
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: the board at first base, like going through the rest

393
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: of the organization, we know that is a weak spot

394
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: in the organization that I think Cooper could be at

395
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:29,399
Speaker 1: his best for these next two three four years. In

396
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: real life, I don't know if he's gonna stay in

397
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: Marlin for all those years, but for right now, he's

398
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 1: as dynamic an offensive player as they have. If you

399
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: just focus on that side of the ball and better

400
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 1: first baseman defensively, then it gets credit for as well.

401
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: So I really chewed up all my two minutes there

402
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: explaining it. Daniel, who are you looking at here? In

403
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 1: the third round?

404
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 3: All right, I'm going to pull a Mike Hill here

405
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:58,719
Speaker 3: and go pitching, pitching, pitching. Layers of pitching. I'm going

406
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:05,120
Speaker 3: to continue are lefty. And this is a guy who

407
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 3: really surprised us this year, Trevor Rodgers. He came out,

408
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:18,959
Speaker 3: you know, guns blazing this year. He everybody had him

409
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 3: at a ninety one to ninety three miles per hour.

410
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 3: He seems good, you know, he might be a number

411
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 3: five pitcher. And then he came up and he was

412
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 3: throwing ninety six ninety seven in the corners, so again

413
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:39,199
Speaker 3: also needs to develop. Doesn't even have a set spot

414
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 3: next season, but you you saw what was there, and

415
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 3: I kind of came out a little I'm not gonna

416
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 3: say disappointed, but a bit a little worried about Braxton

417
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 3: Garrett after this season. He needs to increase that velocity. Obviously,

418
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 3: it's it was a small sample size, but what I'm

419
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:02,680
Speaker 3: saying is Trevor did put up a big difference, i'd say,

420
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 3: between himself and our other lefty pitchers. So I'm gonna

421
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 3: go with with Trevor on this one solid change up.

422
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 3: He was throwing the slider effectively as well, But just

423
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 3: that fastball commands we really caught my eye this year.

424
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the commands and the v low was a little

425
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: bit better than advertised for someone that we thought was

426
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 1: going to be sitting in the low nineties. I mean,

427
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 1: he had a couple of starts where he was sitting

428
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 1: ninety four ninety five, like a couple of times through

429
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: the order. So yeah, I was impressed with them too.

430
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: And yeah, I agree, I think I had him as

431
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: the top lefty in the Yeah, yeah, I mean we're

432
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 1: on the same page here, and so Unfortunately I can't

433
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: get everybody at One's. That's a good pick right there.

434
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 1: Another fifteen seconds. If you wanted Alex for your third

435
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: round pick, think.

436
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 2: I'm good to go here at ELI. And I definitely

437
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 2: agree with Daniel about about Braxton.

438
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 4: Love Braxton.

439
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 2: He looked awesome in spring training on the backfields, but

440
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 2: you know, a regular season it is a small sample size.

441
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 2: And everything else that we stated, you know, said a lot.

442
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,600
Speaker 2: You know, it didn't do much. Obviously had to break

443
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 2: for COVID and everything got really got pushed into action.

444
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna base a lot off of that. I'm

445
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 2: gonna go based off steelings here. I am finally gonna

446
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 2: get my lefty with this pick, Eli, I am gonna

447
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 2: get another twenty twenty draft member. I'm gonna get Daxton Fulton,

448
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 2: that Dackson Fulton here. I'm skipping him above Braxton Garrett

449
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,760
Speaker 2: for the reasons that I just stated. And I you know,

450
00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 2: I love Trevor. I think Trevor flew under the radar

451
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 2: a lot. I think he really popped this year. I

452
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 2: was gonna get him if Daniel didn't, but I think Daniel,

453
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 2: I think Daxton Fulton is a good uh it's a

454
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,359
Speaker 2: good alternative here for me, uh, filling that lefty spot

455
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 2: because this guy, you know, as long as he can

456
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 2: remain healthy, this guy's gonna really really pop.

457
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 4: He's really really gonna be good. I think. Obviously we

458
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 4: haven't seen him yet.

459
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 2: You gotta see him pitch, right, But I'm taking him

460
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,120
Speaker 2: this high because Pipeline says it themselves. You know, they

461
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 2: have his ceiling as long as he stays healthy, higher

462
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,400
Speaker 2: than Trevor and Braxton, and I think that could definitely happen.

463
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 2: He's got huge thighs. What is he like, six seven

464
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 2: sixty six something like that, to forty to thirty something

465
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 2: like that. You know, we probably won't see him in

466
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,320
Speaker 2: a big league game until like twenty twenty three, twenty

467
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 2: twenty four. But I think he's really gonna fly through

468
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,159
Speaker 2: the miners here, and I think he's going to turn

469
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 2: some heads. Obviously, you know he's coming out of high school,

470
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 2: no reason to really rush him. But you know a

471
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 2: guy that I would really look at as saying he

472
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 2: has the stuff.

473
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 4: He's got it now. As long as the health maintains

474
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 4: and as long as it's.

475
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 2: There, he's going to be good. And he's gonna be

476
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 2: here sooner rather than later. So that's the voting from here.

477
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: Yeah he's another one. Yeah, that's that's so far away

478
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: because coming off the time of John and not playing

479
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: in any organized games to this point. But I believe

480
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,359
Speaker 1: he just turned nineteen years old. He's got so much

481
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 1: time and of him. And yeah, for the purposes of

482
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: this exercise, it's just you wonder how quickly he will

483
00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 1: be up to the majors, just because of all the

484
00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,679
Speaker 1: like boxes he already checks. And maybe he is the

485
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: guy that does get up fairly quickly, even if the

486
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 1: number at actual ennings totals aren't that high until a

487
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 1: few years down the road. I like it. I like

488
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: it a lot, and yeah, I've seen the same things

489
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 1: from scouts. A quick review of where we are through

490
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,679
Speaker 1: three rounds. Team ELI with outfielder JJ Blday, third baseman

491
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 1: Brian Anderson, first baseman Garrett Cooper, Team Daniel with six

492
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: Dos Sanchez, right handed pitcher, first baseman the Leylan Diaz,

493
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 1: left hander Trevor Rodgers, and Team Alex with shortstop Gestism

494
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: right hander Max Meyer, left hander Daxon Fulton. And I

495
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 1: love where I am right now considering the positions you

496
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 1: guys already took and what I still need. So I'm

497
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 1: gonna actually shake up what I already had planned with

498
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 1: my fourth round pick. We're gonna here at number ten overall,

499
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: I'm taking my second to outfielder, and it's Jesus Sanchez,

500
00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: twenty three years old, acquired in twenty nineteen in that

501
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: Nick Anderson trade. And I guess the early impressions of

502
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: that trade are that the Rays got exactly what they wanted,

503
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: but to the Marlins get exactly what they want Injesus,

504
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 1: And again the very early impression. He started his major

505
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: league career one of twenty five at the plate with

506
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 1: a lot of strikeouts. But I think it was already

507
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 1: apparent in that small sample and really going back to

508
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:30,240
Speaker 1: spring training, that his power potential is excellent. Some of

509
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: the things he does, a lot of the little things

510
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 1: he does, the athleticism he has, and the potential for

511
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 1: him to be a really well rounded, everyday outfielder is

512
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: a parent. He's a tricky guy. I mean, I know

513
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: that for some of you he probably would have been

514
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: a lot further down your board just because statistically he

515
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 1: is not really impressed at the higher minor league levels.

516
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 1: And obviously in the small major league sample that scares

517
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: you a little bit when that track record isn't quite there.

518
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: But for me, for someone that was a lot younger

519
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,720
Speaker 1: than his competition every single step of the way, and

520
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: for someone that has all these tools, has this really

521
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 1: strong build, a beautiful, vicious left handed swing, that I

522
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: think he's someone that could really establish himself quickly, someone

523
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,159
Speaker 1: that could end up being the best outfielder in this

524
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:25,680
Speaker 1: organization that has a zillion different outfielders. I feel everybody

525
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 1: outside of Bladet For me, Jesus is number two in

526
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: terms of the outfielder that I really trust to break

527
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 1: out and break out pretty soon and establish himself in

528
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: this very crowded outfield situation in the Marlins organization. So

529
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: he is my fourth round pick at number ten overall.

530
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 1: Going back to Daniel here in the fourth.

531
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 3: Rounds Okay, I think it's time to take care of

532
00:28:54,800 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 3: the catching situation. I think that's important. The Marlins are

533
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 3: extremely thinned at catcher. So with that in mind, you know,

534
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 3: I am Colombian, so let's go with Alfado. You know,

535
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 3: I just couldn't let him go anywhere else. Amazing arm,

536
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 3: amazing power. He is currently a big debate within Marlins fans.

537
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 3: You know, he should have shown more by now, but

538
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 3: the tools are there, he needs to find it. I hope,

539
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 3: I hope and believe that he will. So so yeah,

540
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 3: he I feel he's ready, He's ready to get to

541
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 3: that next level next year. And so with my fourth pick,

542
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 3: I'm going with Jorge Alado.

543
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, al Barrow with a fly ball outsward left center field,

544
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 5: gives it a ride and it is gone second time tonight.

545
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: For who being al far I think there's a lot

546
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: of people overreacting to it, and I can hear it

547
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 1: in your voice that was painful for you to watch

548
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: the fact that he simply was like a non factor

549
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,920
Speaker 1: in the postseason behind I mean, of all people, Chad Wallack.

550
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 1: I mean, nobody could have seen that coming, like a

551
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: year ago or a year prior to that, but it

552
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 1: was a small sample, and I mean from where he

553
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 1: was even like in the middle of September, he was

554
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 1: in a pretty promising place walk off hits, one of

555
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,800
Speaker 1: the leading run producers in the lineup. It's yeah, I'm

556
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: someone that's been relatively low on Alfaro almost every step

557
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: of the way, and I haven't lost hope you know,

558
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: the opportunity is going to be there. You can say that.

559
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, catching is a really tough position. And Covid,

560
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 3: I mean he got Covid, he missed a lot of time,

561
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 3: he came back.

562
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 2: You know.

563
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 3: Don't want to throw any excuses out there, but come on, man,

564
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,000
Speaker 3: give me give me a shot.

565
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 1: All right here with the number twelve overall pick in

566
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: the fourth round, back to Alex, who's your pick?

567
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I gotta go the same route here. I

568
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 2: already don't have my first baseman. You guys pretty much

569
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 2: have both guys that you know that I would have

570
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 2: taken as a first baseman. So I don't know where

571
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with that. We're gonna have to get

572
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 2: creative here later in the draft. But I'm gonna take

573
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 2: care of catcher too, and I'm gonna go with the

574
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 2: guy that is, you know, our top you know, minor

575
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 2: league catcher, probably the only guy we have in our

576
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 2: top what maybe Daniel, you could answer this better than me.

577
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 2: Maybe forty or fifty players and uh, you know, just

578
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:41,800
Speaker 2: because of the thinness of the position, I'm.

579
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 4: Gonna go Will Bamfield.

580
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 2: Will Bamfield, you know, we know his reputation defensively, even

581
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 2: though he did struggle defensively last year, taken out base

582
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 2: unters in Clinton. But I think that'll fix itself. This

583
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 2: guy's got pop times that are ridiculous. The arms speaks

584
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,959
Speaker 2: for itself. I think that was just a bad one

585
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: for him in his first full minor league season, So

586
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 2: I think that's gonna fix itself. The bat is the

587
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 2: question mark for sure. And you know, obviously none of

588
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 2: us could go to instructs. Eli knows that, Daniel, you

589
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 2: know that as well, that none of us were able

590
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 2: to go to instructs. But every report we got out

591
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 2: of instrucs here at the end of the season is

592
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 2: that this guy is really starting to turn the corner

593
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 2: with the bat. Hopefully that holds true. I can't tell

594
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,479
Speaker 2: you that from my own eyes. I hope that's true

595
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 2: because this guy definitely has the defensive ability to really

596
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 2: succeed as a catcher. So yeah, I go Bamfield here

597
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 2: basically off the Finnish as the position, but also based

598
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 2: off of those reports I've heard out of instructs, so

599
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 2: hopefully Bamfield gets it done.

600
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll list no time right here. Fifth rounds my

601
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: first pick. You guys already took your right handed pitchers.

602
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: And here's mine, one of the faces of the organization,

603
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: Sandy Alcantra, who was He's another guy that continues to

604
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: surprise me every single step of the way. I remember

605
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: a year and a half ago, that's where we were.

606
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: Eighteen months ago, like Memorial Day twenty nineteen, I thought

607
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 1: he should get sent back down to Triple A. He

608
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 1: was in that situation. I did not trust him to

609
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 1: ever consistently throw strikes. He was someone that pretty deep

610
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: into his all Star caliber twenty nineteen campaign, he was inconsistent,

611
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: and almost from that point forward he's been excellent. He

612
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:32,400
Speaker 1: really flipped the switch. Just a unique picture, a guy

613
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: that has high end velocity and also high end movement

614
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: on his sinker, who has really quality secondaries with his

615
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: change up and with his slider, and he's his work

616
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: ethic is amazing. The transformation that he's made physically from

617
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: when he was first called up in twenty eighteen, the

618
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: strength that he has put on. I could swear that

619
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: he's even gotten a little bit taller since he was

620
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 1: first called up to the majors, even though I don't

621
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: think that's possible for someone that's now at this point

622
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 1: twenty five years old, but this past season an era

623
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: of three flat and the peripherals are getting a lot

624
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: closer than they used to be in terms of justifying

625
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 1: the legitimacy of that. But his stuff is there and

626
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: his mechanics have been so much more consistent. He obviously

627
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: this year in particular, developed a pretty good rapport with

628
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,399
Speaker 1: Chad Wallack, but I feel like the things he's doing

629
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: can work with a lot of different battery mates. So

630
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 1: he's just been so impressive even off the field as well,

631
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,839
Speaker 1: and someone that you really admire. He's under in real life,

632
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: he's under Marlin's control for the next four years. I

633
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,879
Speaker 1: don't know what things look like with an extension for him,

634
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 1: but he's someone that could be legitimately be a starting

635
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 1: pitcher for the next ten years. His track record of

636
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:50,160
Speaker 1: being healthy is pretty impressive as well. Whatever you put

637
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 1: into that, I mean, predicting picture health is foolish for

638
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:59,320
Speaker 1: anybody to try. But he's been so impressive in numerous ways,

639
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 1: and the this rotation at the moment, and honestly, I

640
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 1: have the pick of like any right hand or left

641
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: if I wanted to, but he's the one I'm going

642
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: with I think he's really safe bed and I think

643
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: he could get even better than he has shown us

644
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: so far.

645
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 3: I love I love his attitude. You know, he just

646
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 3: came out and started talking smack, saying, I'm a I'm

647
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 3: going to You know, these guys Yankees have never seen

648
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 3: me pitch. They don't know what's coming. I love. I

649
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 3: love that. That's ace material. By the way, I thought

650
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 3: you were going Pablo. You love Pablo, don't you.

651
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,839
Speaker 1: I had them back to back on my rankings here,

652
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 1: and I really thought it over and I put on

653
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 1: my overall rankings, I put Sandy just one spot ahead

654
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 1: of Pablo. I mean, again, for what it's worth, the durability,

655
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 1: the fact that Pablo twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen both years

656
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:52,080
Speaker 1: shoulder issues, and technically he's still available to us as

657
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 1: a wild card if I think he chooses to go

658
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: that direction. He's through my personal favorite players on the team,

659
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 1: and of course for this year, he was most important

660
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 1: picture because it is healthy the whole year. But yeah,

661
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,239
Speaker 1: it's it's close. I mean, the one two for this

662
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: rotation right now, it's accept pretty well with any other

663
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 1: team of the majors.

664
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 3: That's right, well, for my next pick number five, I'm

665
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 3: going with talking about attitude. My first outfielder, Monte Harrison,

666
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 3: I would say, most athletic guy in our organization. He

667
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 3: has the speed, he has the attitude. As I said,

668
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,880
Speaker 3: he has a fielding, he has the power. He just

669
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 3: needs to tap into that hit tool. And with his

670
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 3: attitude and the way he talks everything he says, he's

671
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 3: going to find it. He's going to be a really

672
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 3: important part of our future. He didn't look good at

673
00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 3: the plate this season, but there's a lot to develop

674
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:06,239
Speaker 3: and we have some great UH coaches who can help

675
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 3: him develop. So I think he's got it all for,

676
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 3: you know, to be a really important part of of

677
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,760
Speaker 3: our of our organization for the next ten years. So yes,

678
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 3: for my next pick, outfielder Monte Harrison.

679
00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:27,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's another guy just like Jazz, where the personality

680
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:33,480
Speaker 1: is infectious, the confidence is so apparent, and yeah, some

681
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 1: of the most like unbelievable individual moments of athleticism that

682
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,400
Speaker 1: you've seen from him, even just as a base runner.

683
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: The way he's made based runner base running so fascinating,

684
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,839
Speaker 1: even in this day and age where you just don't

685
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,879
Speaker 1: see stolen base attempts that much from anybody, the fact

686
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: that he was put into that role and he was

687
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 1: able to. There was that one pretty notable mistake. I

688
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 1: guess when the when he made one of the last

689
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 1: outs of the game late in the regular Braves Yeah,

690
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:08,240
Speaker 1: real sick, sad, I remember that one. But he's yeah,

691
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,240
Speaker 1: he's not discouraged one bit by.

692
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 4: That, So.

693
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 3: I think it was the correct play man. I mean

694
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 3: one out right, yeah, there was there was one out

695
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 3: and well two outs at that exact moment, but he

696
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,240
Speaker 3: had it. It was a perfect throw, perfect tag, perfect

697
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 3: everything by the Braves. I mean you just tip your hat,

698
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 3: you know, tip your hat.

699
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:36,200
Speaker 1: Here in the fifth round, number fifteen overall, we are

700
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: back to Alex Carver.

701
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,360
Speaker 4: Go ahead. Yeah, this is a tough one for me.

702
00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 2: I'm also gonna go outfielder for my first outfield as well,

703
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,839
Speaker 2: along with Daniel and I have a pick between two

704
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 2: guys who I absolutely adore, both pretty new to the organization.

705
00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: Uh.

706
00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,600
Speaker 2: The one I'm gonna go with here is another member

707
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 2: of that absolutely beautiful twenty nineteen draft class.

708
00:38:57,960 --> 00:38:59,240
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with Peyton Verdicck.

709
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:04,480
Speaker 2: Peyton Verdick for me is a guy who you know,

710
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 2: he comes to the Marlins out of that draft. He's

711
00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:09,720
Speaker 2: a third rounder and he signs for next to nothing.

712
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 4: I mean he's coming.

713
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 2: Out of you know, not a small school, but not

714
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 2: a huge school. But you know, definitely could have demanded

715
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,560
Speaker 2: more money. But for me, it just says, this guy

716
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 2: loves to play baseball. He wants to be here, He

717
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 2: wants to be, you know, a member of this organization.

718
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 2: He believes in what's going on here, and he wanted

719
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 2: to sign here, and we got him. And it's a

720
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 2: great money safe for the Marlins that they used elsewhere

721
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 2: in that draft. Fantastic work by the entire team that

722
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 2: went into that draft. That's first of all, according to

723
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 2: his skill set, I'll keep it brief here, one of

724
00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,040
Speaker 2: the most beautiful swings in the organization, next to JJ

725
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 2: Blede and plus arm probably could play both corner spots.

726
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 4: You know, got great versatility there.

727
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,279
Speaker 2: And when you see this guy swing man, I saw

728
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 2: it in spring training. You guys probably did too. It

729
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,399
Speaker 2: speaks for itself. So the ball absolutely flies. I love him.

730
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,359
Speaker 2: I cannot wait till he gets here. I have every

731
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 2: single one of his baseball cards right now up until

732
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 2: this point in is career and I don't plan to

733
00:40:01,520 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 2: stop on collecting them because I think he's really going

734
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:04,360
Speaker 2: to take off, so burdick from me.

735
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: Here, Yeah, he cannot like literally do more to like

736
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:15,400
Speaker 1: impress everybody. He's impressed everybody, everybody within the organization, the

737
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 1: evaluators out from other teams. I mean, just as we're

738
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:21,360
Speaker 1: recording this, this is the same day that Baseball America

739
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:26,760
Speaker 1: put out it's rundown of what nineteen players across nineteen

740
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 1: prospects that really impressed during instructionals across the league, and

741
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 1: he's near the top of that list. A guy that

742
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: is as physically strong as any prospects in the organization

743
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,439
Speaker 1: and has reportedly gotten even stronger. And just the fact

744
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: that for one thing, I mean, in twenty nineteen, playing

745
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:48,000
Speaker 1: at a relatively low level against a lot of competition

746
00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 1: that was even younger than he was. But then here

747
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 1: in instructions this past fall, alongside all the top prospects

748
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 1: in both the Marlins organization and in playing games against

749
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 1: the NATIONALSS and he apparently leapt off them. He really

750
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 1: made a powerful impression on everybody there. And it's, yeah,

751
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,839
Speaker 1: the performance. All he can do is perform, even as

752
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 1: a guy that is Yeah, has some of those red flags,

753
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 1: just in terms of his age, and in terms of

754
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,879
Speaker 1: being a right handed hitter and not a left handed hitter,

755
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: and being probably a corner outfielder and not really versatile

756
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 1: one that you just mash the ball then you're gonna be.

757
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,879
Speaker 1: You're gonna be pretty great in eventually down the road.

758
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, you can't go wrong with him. Moving on

759
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: to the sixth round, I'm gonna go pretty old. Speaking

760
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,120
Speaker 1: of age, I'm gonna go much older than you guys

761
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:43,640
Speaker 1: with this pick. My second baseman. Yeah, and I could

762
00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 1: put this guy at a lot of different positions, but

763
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 1: second base is the one we know him at best.

764
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 1: John Birdie, who came out of nowhere with the Marlins

765
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 1: a year and a half ago, signed as a minor

766
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,280
Speaker 1: league free agent, got a first taste of the majors

767
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 1: with them in like early twenty nineteen and didn't even stick.

768
00:42:01,719 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 1: Suffered an injury, came back up in the midway point

769
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,919
Speaker 1: of the twenty nineteen season, and ever since then he's

770
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: been one of the best players on the team. He's

771
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,000
Speaker 1: thirty years old at this point. I think he's gonna

772
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,719
Speaker 1: be thirty one next year, and so I understand that

773
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: He's probably not going to be the same type of

774
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,359
Speaker 1: player ten years from now that he is right now,

775
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,359
Speaker 1: not when he's forty years old, but for the time being,

776
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: he is. I mean he is. I don't think there

777
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,399
Speaker 1: is a better base runner in Major League Baseball right

778
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: now than John Birdie. There are individual games that stick out,

779
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 1: of course, stealing three bases in a row against the

780
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: Mets this past summer, including stealing home even when he

781
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,799
Speaker 1: lost his footing, the success rate that he has as

782
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 1: a base stealer, the aggressiveness that he has, and of

783
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 1: course also on balls and play tecking extra bases, and

784
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: his ability to get on base in the first place.

785
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: He has the highest on base percentage of any Marlins

786
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: player during the rebuild. He's been getting on base thirty

787
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 1: six percent of the time. And that's a guy that

788
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,800
Speaker 1: is moving forward. I don't think they have him penciled

789
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,960
Speaker 1: in as the everyday second baseman, but they're going to

790
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 1: be starting him pretty close to every day if he

791
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 1: keeps us up. Because he is, he's producing. He's sitting

792
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 1: for a little bit more power than we could have thought,

793
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 1: and that combined with the fact that he knows the

794
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 1: strike zone and that the way that he moves at

795
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:33,120
Speaker 1: an elite level, it makes him a really valuable player.

796
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 1: And even though I don't know exactly how that kind

797
00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,399
Speaker 1: of player will age, he does more than just one thing,

798
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 1: and I think that's a perception that he's still fighting

799
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 1: against these more than just that underdog speedster. He is

800
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 1: a pretty valuable player, and it's gonna be fascinating in

801
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,439
Speaker 1: real life to see what the Marlins do with him,

802
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 1: because he's someone that a lot of teams are going

803
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:58,439
Speaker 1: to have serious interest in building around, and we'll see

804
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,440
Speaker 1: exactly what his playing time looks like. But came out

805
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 1: of nowhere. Just a great finds I mean, above all else,

806
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:06,719
Speaker 1: tip of the cast of the Marlins for finding him

807
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 1: on a minor league deal in the first place, because

808
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,439
Speaker 1: this is the kind of value that it's very hard

809
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 1: to get when every team is supposed to be on

810
00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,399
Speaker 1: the lookout for these diamonds in the rough. Moving on here,

811
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,160
Speaker 1: it's number seventeen overall here in the sixth rounds.

812
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 3: Back to Daniel, I'm going to stick with second base. Yeah,

813
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 3: let's slip with a second base and let's go with

814
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 3: Isan Diaz. Well, I'm also sticking with power to have Alfaro,

815
00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 3: Lewin Dias Diez, and Monte Harrison. So that's power and

816
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 3: pitching on my team right now. Isan, well, you all

817
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 3: know the story of last season. He was not one

818
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:59,719
Speaker 3: of the the infected with COVID guys, but it really

819
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 3: got to him and he opted out but decided to

820
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 3: come back and after a game got injured. So not

821
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 3: not his his you know, not the season he had

822
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,840
Speaker 3: in mind. But just like I said with the other players,

823
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,440
Speaker 3: the tools are there. He killed it in the minors.

824
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 3: He hasn't started his major league career as as he

825
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 3: would have wished. But this guy's amazing and in a

826
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:33,239
Speaker 3: position where power is not, you know, it's its most

827
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 3: predominant attribute, he is I think is really good for

828
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 3: the Marlins and I definitely see a good future for him.

829
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 3: So yeah, Isan Diaz second base.

830
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, honestly, I'm I'm a little worried about Isan, just

831
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: because it was a small sample of him in like

832
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:58,439
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, but also not like tiny. It was long

833
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 1: enough that I got pretty turned off by that. I

834
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 1: thought twenty twenty was going to be a really important year,

835
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,360
Speaker 1: and of course, as you said, for some reasons in

836
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 1: his control. And then of course the injury at the end,

837
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 1: which was out of his control. Yeah, we just didn't

838
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 1: get an opportunity to see any of the adjustments that

839
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 1: he made, So yeah, I understand that, of course. I mean,

840
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,839
Speaker 1: he's still a guy that is so young, and the

841
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 1: team invested quite a bit to get him, being that

842
00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 1: he was part of the yell At trade. In that,

843
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 1: I think even the same with Monte and even with

844
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: someone like Jordan Yamamoto, those are guys that I think

845
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,800
Speaker 1: they're going to be more patient with than you might expect,

846
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,920
Speaker 1: just because they want to give them every chance to

847
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 1: contribute and before turning onto somebody else with those positions. Yeah,

848
00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,280
Speaker 1: I hope for the best for him because his swing

849
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 1: is scorgeous when he has it on those Remember all

850
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 1: those comparisons to Robinson Cano that I guess haven't aged

851
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 1: all that well in the light of recent news, but

852
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,600
Speaker 1: he is in Ter's the actual ability itself. Yeah, he's

853
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 1: that type of player, Alex back to you here in

854
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:07,600
Speaker 1: the sixth round.

855
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 2: So an interesting case for me here based off what

856
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:17,319
Speaker 2: I need here in the draft, right, I still need

857
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 2: my first baseman, you know, I still need some middle infield.

858
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 4: I still need a third baseman. So and now the

859
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,919
Speaker 4: draft's what seventh rounds or sixth round? I should say?

860
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 4: So what do I go with?

861
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:29,960
Speaker 2: Based off everything to Marlins have coming in the middle infield?

862
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,719
Speaker 2: I'm gonna forego my first basement because none of you

863
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 2: other guys are gonna take the guy that I'm thinking

864
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 2: of getting later on.

865
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,960
Speaker 4: So here, I'm gonna go with another outfielder.

866
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 2: And I'd be remiss if I didn't get this guy

867
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 2: because I grew up idolizing his father. You guys know

868
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 2: who I'm talking about. I'm getting Gryffin Conine. I'm taking

869
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:50,560
Speaker 2: Griffin here as my second outfielder to fill very likely

870
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:52,080
Speaker 2: what's gonna be the left field spot for him?

871
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:52,840
Speaker 4: Maybe right field?

872
00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,600
Speaker 2: Probably left field with all we have in the outfield

873
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:59,319
Speaker 2: here with the Marlins, Blade Verdick and others. So yeah,

874
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,879
Speaker 2: Conine from here and for me, there's a reason why

875
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 2: the Marlins went and got this guy.

876
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 4: They targeted him in his draft year.

877
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,799
Speaker 2: The Blue Jays got him literally one pick before the

878
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 2: Marlins picked you guys remember that.

879
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 4: So yeah, the Marlins had a target on him.

880
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,520
Speaker 2: They did draft him on a high school he decided

881
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 2: to go to Duke and then the Blue Jays got

882
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:18,840
Speaker 2: him one pick ahead of us, so obviously Hill and

883
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 2: the Marlins wanted him, you know, so the Marlins going

884
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 2: get him. And you know, he did go through the

885
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,640
Speaker 2: suspension for steroids, but then he came back and just

886
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 2: kept breaking, like just went off last year after he

887
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 2: got back from the suspension.

888
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 4: Beautiful swing.

889
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 2: He's got obviously got the you know, reputation behind him,

890
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:38,920
Speaker 2: He's got the upbringing behind him to do everything that

891
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 2: he needs to do because you weren't going to find

892
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:42,719
Speaker 2: a harder worker than Jeff Conne and his father. So

893
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,839
Speaker 2: I'm getting Griffin here, and I got one outfielder left

894
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:47,439
Speaker 2: to go, So yeah, Griffin and Conin from here.

895
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, we've reached the halfway point of the straps going

896
00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 1: twelve rounds, so we're through six at this point. Taking

897
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 1: this opportunity to just review where we're at, Alex, you

898
00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:02,680
Speaker 1: got Jass Chisholm, Max Meyer, Dexton, Fulton, will Banfields, Peyton Burdick,

899
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:08,320
Speaker 1: Mister Marlin Junior, and Daniel has six to Sanchez, Lewan Diaz,

900
00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:12,880
Speaker 1: Trevor Rodgers, jore Al Farrow, Monte Harrison, Eastan Diez. I

901
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 1: have JJ Bolde, Brian Anderson, Garrett Cooper, Jy Sus Sanchez,

902
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: Sandy al Contra, John Birdie, so Alex in these the

903
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 1: second half of draft still needs a first baseman, second baseman,

904
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 1: third baseman, one outfielder, a DH and a wild card. Daniel,

905
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:34,120
Speaker 1: you only need a shortstop, third baseman, two outfielders, a

906
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 1: DH and a wild card. And I will need a shortstop,

907
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 1: an outfielder, a DH, a left hander, a catcher, and

908
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 1: a wild card. And I'm going to take this opportunity

909
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,360
Speaker 1: to Yeah, I'm gonna fill out my outfield right here,

910
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:56,520
Speaker 1: to join Budet and Sanchez. Another highly regarded prospect outfielder

911
00:49:56,640 --> 00:50:02,839
Speaker 1: gerar and Carnacion three years old, someone that had a

912
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 1: big breakout year in twenty nineteen. He led all Marlins

913
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,279
Speaker 1: minor leaguers. This is off the top of my head.

914
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,080
Speaker 1: I think he led Marlins minor leaguers in games played

915
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 1: and played, appearances, in RBIs, and in something else outfield assists.

916
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 1: I think he had eighteen outfield assists in twenty nineteen.

917
00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:25,520
Speaker 1: He also had about as many errors in the outfield,

918
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 1: so it's kind of a questionable decision to put him

919
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:31,399
Speaker 1: in this all tens of purposes. He's probably a right

920
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 1: fielder if he does play defensively. I guess a lot

921
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 1: of people, myself included, believe his best position is DH.

922
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to save my DH for later and in

923
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,960
Speaker 1: trust your are to you know, not hurt us too

924
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:48,200
Speaker 1: bad in that position to let his arm do all

925
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:50,680
Speaker 1: the talking, because he has a powerful canon of an arm.

926
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:54,360
Speaker 1: He has a powerful bat as well. I mean we

927
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,720
Speaker 1: finally got to see little glimpses of it in Clinton

928
00:50:57,760 --> 00:50:59,800
Speaker 1: and Jupiter, and then even more so in the Arizona

929
00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 1: Fall League. He had one of the longest home runs

930
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 1: of the entire AFL last year in twenty nineteen what

931
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 1: ended up being I believe that was the game winning

932
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 1: Grand Slam in the championship game against Stirling Sharp, former Marlin.

933
00:51:16,280 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: And in spring training he had a couple of big

934
00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,239
Speaker 1: home runs as well, including ones of the opposite field.

935
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 1: He's built. He really is. Some people within the Marlins

936
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:28,799
Speaker 1: organization have compared him to Stanton. Of course, people within

937
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:32,360
Speaker 1: the Marlins organization are are biased and they're kind of

938
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,400
Speaker 1: prone to have really outlandish comparisons. To me, I just

939
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 1: compare him a lots of Garrett Cooper. He's the same

940
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:41,239
Speaker 1: type of build, the same type of ability to go

941
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 1: to all fields and enough understanding of the strike zone

942
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 1: to actually put the ball in play a lot and

943
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 1: to get himself into favorable accounts. He's not a guy

944
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: that is going to give away that many at bats

945
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:56,399
Speaker 1: chasing outside the zone. So to me, I think as

946
00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,359
Speaker 1: best case scenario, I guess is hopefully someone that could

947
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:02,200
Speaker 1: be one of the home run leaders. To me, I

948
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 1: think a perfectly good outcome for him as just being

949
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 1: the next Garrett Cooper, except one that gets to the

950
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,239
Speaker 1: big leagues a lot earlier. He just turned twenty three

951
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,880
Speaker 1: years old and just got added to the forty man roster,

952
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:15,480
Speaker 1: similar timeline as someone like JJ Blday. You can see

953
00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:17,040
Speaker 1: him up in the majors by the end of twenty

954
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,640
Speaker 1: twenty one, and he could spend most of the next

955
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 1: decade in the majors. Whether it's not an everyday player,

956
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: I think he could be a Garrett Cooper on the

957
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,560
Speaker 1: high ends, maybe a Mark Trumbo, someone like that, at

958
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:34,120
Speaker 1: least offensively. That I mean, you can't really not everybody's

959
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:36,840
Speaker 1: going to be perfectly well rounded. He certainly isn't, but

960
00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: he's going to help him win a lot of games.

961
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:41,399
Speaker 1: In my opinion, as long as he stays healthy, he's

962
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 1: a whole lot of fun to watch.

963
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:52,359
Speaker 3: Solid pick. I am also continuing outfielder also from that

964
00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 3: twenty nineteen amazing outfielder crop. We had bid day, we

965
00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:02,960
Speaker 3: had verdict, and we also had we also had Cameron Meisner.

966
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 3: He looks really really good.

967
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:06,840
Speaker 1: He is.

968
00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 3: He's just toolsy. You know, he has the power, he

969
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 3: has the speed, he's an intelligent runner. A lot of

970
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 3: a lot of different platforms say he's a twenty twenty threat.

971
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:23,799
Speaker 3: I believe it. He is comfortable in center field, you know,

972
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:27,759
Speaker 3: really good defensive guy. I even heard he can even

973
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:32,319
Speaker 3: play first base, but that's just rumors. Solid arm, solid hit,

974
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:35,200
Speaker 3: tool just you know, I really see him as a

975
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:37,759
Speaker 3: as a as a real five tool threat. He just

976
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:43,480
Speaker 3: has to show it he does have those tools. Baseball

977
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,440
Speaker 3: America actually said that if if he would have had

978
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 3: a better spring before the draft, he would have gone

979
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,279
Speaker 3: top five. You know, he's like the the other side

980
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:55,440
Speaker 3: of J. J. Bladet. They had an amazing spring and

981
00:53:55,600 --> 00:54:00,440
Speaker 3: went from late first round to the early for round,

982
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:05,759
Speaker 3: whereas whereas Meisner, he didn't. And it's said that it

983
00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:09,200
Speaker 3: was simply approach. It was something that can easily be fixed.

984
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:13,919
Speaker 3: So I believe in what he can bring. He's got

985
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 3: the tools, and he's he's uh, he's really good guys.

986
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I uh, probably if I was actually building a

987
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 1: functioning team out of all these guys, I guess he'd

988
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,360
Speaker 1: make more sense considering I don't really have a center fielder,

989
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:33,440
Speaker 1: and uh for him, at least at this point in

990
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,359
Speaker 1: his career, he's got a decent chance of sticking there,

991
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 1: so I could see that working. And yeah, I mean,

992
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 1: Ladet is the one from that draft that gets all

993
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:46,120
Speaker 1: the press, But in terms of tools alone, I mean,

994
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,480
Speaker 1: I don't think it'd be all that shocking if Myser

995
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:50,959
Speaker 1: turned out to be the best player from that twenty

996
00:54:51,040 --> 00:54:54,200
Speaker 1: nineteen draft class of the Marlins guide. It's a it's

997
00:54:54,239 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 1: it's not always so easy to predict this kind of stuff,

998
00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 1: and he's someone that was on a great trajectory until

999
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,680
Speaker 1: that weird slump in the middle of his junior year.

1000
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:06,959
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's another good pick right there. A few

1001
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 1: more seconds if he needed Alex here in the seventh round.

1002
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:14,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, So it's an interesting go for me here.

1003
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 2: You know, we have what we have at shortstop, and

1004
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 2: I think a lot of it's gonna move around. So

1005
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna draft this guy as a shortstop, expecting him

1006
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 2: to move to third base, and I'm gonna go here

1007
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 2: with another kid.

1008
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 4: I love my kids. You guys know that.

1009
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,680
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go drafting him at third base. I'm

1010
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:36,480
Speaker 2: gonna go Jose Salas. Jose Salas, seventeen year old kid. Folks,

1011
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,680
Speaker 2: go watch his Instagram videos. That'll show you all you

1012
00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:40,120
Speaker 2: need to know. I mean, I don't care if it's

1013
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:41,640
Speaker 2: a batting practice. If you're swinging the bat like that

1014
00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,520
Speaker 2: at seventeen years old, you know you're gonna move to

1015
00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,239
Speaker 2: a power position, especially with what the Marlins have long

1016
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,960
Speaker 2: term at shortstop. So I think Salas here for me.

1017
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,560
Speaker 2: He's gonna fill into his body advantageously. He's gonna put

1018
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 2: on even more muscle. He's already showing the potential for

1019
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:57,399
Speaker 2: like twenty homer power, and I think that could grow

1020
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,800
Speaker 2: even more than that. So Sallas, that makes the speed

1021
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:04,280
Speaker 2: and strength the good bat speed. I mean, he's already

1022
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:06,320
Speaker 2: strong even in his seventeen year old Nike body, and

1023
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 2: he's gonna grow into even more. Got to see him play,

1024
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:10,680
Speaker 2: like a lot of these guys that're drafting, but I

1025
00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:12,520
Speaker 2: really like the peripherals.

1026
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,880
Speaker 4: I like where they can go. So that's where I'm

1027
00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:16,720
Speaker 4: going here. Third basement. Jose Salas.

1028
00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:22,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was pretty high up on my board too.

1029
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:25,759
Speaker 1: I still need a short stop, and yeah, that's what

1030
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:28,799
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take right now, really going down to the

1031
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:34,680
Speaker 1: wire between two very different types of players, and I

1032
00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: think I have to go with Jose Devers here in

1033
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:39,880
Speaker 1: the eighth rounds as my short stop. It was between

1034
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:44,160
Speaker 1: him and the captain, Miguel Rojas. But if we're being honest,

1035
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:47,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Miggy is thirty two years old, he's coming

1036
00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:49,080
Speaker 1: off a career year. I don't want to go too

1037
00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:50,880
Speaker 1: far in on him if one of you guys end

1038
00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:53,080
Speaker 1: up taking him as a short stopper, wild card or whatever.

1039
00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:56,479
Speaker 1: But I think at this being thirty two years old,

1040
00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:59,640
Speaker 1: I don't think it's really in the best interest of

1041
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: this exercise when you're building a team for the next

1042
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:04,640
Speaker 1: ten years, I might as well go with Jose Devers,

1043
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,000
Speaker 1: who was on the opposite ends of the spectrum as

1044
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 1: we're recording this. He is still twenty years old. He's

1045
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 1: about to turn twenty one, just like Jerar. Good friends

1046
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,360
Speaker 1: with Jerar, I mean their teammates in winter ball. They

1047
00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 1: played alongside each other a little bit in the minor

1048
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 1: leagues as well, and Devers came over, of course from

1049
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 1: the Yankees organization in the Gian Carlos Stanton trade, and

1050
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,080
Speaker 1: at that point he was definitely second billing behind George

1051
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:35,120
Speaker 1: Guzman in terms of prospect pedigree. At that point, Devers

1052
00:57:35,600 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 1: was almost an unknown commodity. Besides the fact that he

1053
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,440
Speaker 1: was Rafael Dever's cousin. There wasn't a whole lot to

1054
00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 1: him besides that much different type of player than his cousin.

1055
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:48,680
Speaker 1: I mean, if he turns out being as productive overall,

1056
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,560
Speaker 1: that's a huge success. But he's a smaller built guy,

1057
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,080
Speaker 1: someone who has a lot more to offer defensively at

1058
00:57:56,120 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 1: either second base or at shortstop. And he's just i'd say,

1059
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:05,320
Speaker 1: probably been unexpectedly a really good hitter in minor league

1060
00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,520
Speaker 1: games with Greensboro when they were their Low Way affiliated

1061
00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 1: and then of course moving up to Jupiter where he

1062
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 1: was a Florida State lya All Star if I'm not mistaken.

1063
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 1: He's had some nagging injuries make you worry a little bit,

1064
00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 1: but at his age and with his frame, he's still

1065
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 1: got room to fill out a little bit, and hopefully

1066
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: that will help mitigate some of these injuries that have

1067
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 1: cost them a lot of playing times. At this point,

1068
00:58:29,800 --> 00:58:32,640
Speaker 1: it's really unusual for someone to make it to the

1069
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:37,520
Speaker 1: forty man roster and with so little actual minor league experience.

1070
00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,600
Speaker 1: He's played less than two hundred games in his pro career.

1071
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:44,320
Speaker 1: So there are some red flags here, and there are

1072
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:47,760
Speaker 1: some other interesting shortstops in this organization to consider kind

1073
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,400
Speaker 1: of in the same range. But I'm going with the

1074
00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:53,520
Speaker 1: guy that is not that far away from being in

1075
00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,880
Speaker 1: the majors and his ceiling limited at this point by

1076
00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:00,120
Speaker 1: the fact that he hasn't hit for power whatsoever. But

1077
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:02,920
Speaker 1: I'm banking on the work ethic of him filling out

1078
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 1: a little bit and just the basic foundation he has

1079
00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 1: as a player in terms of what he does defensively

1080
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:12,320
Speaker 1: and in terms of his bats of ball skills. I

1081
00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,200
Speaker 1: think at the very least he is he's gonna be

1082
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: a somebody. He might not be a guy, he might

1083
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 1: not be a cornerstone, but he's is gonna be something

1084
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 1: of significance at the major league level. And that's at

1085
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:27,200
Speaker 1: this point. This led in the draft at this premium position,

1086
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 1: I'm satisfied with that.

1087
00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,520
Speaker 2: The best thing about about this for this organization real quick, ELI,

1088
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:34,840
Speaker 2: is that how many of these guys do we have

1089
00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 2: at that spot? Obviously, yes, they can move around. I

1090
00:59:37,560 --> 00:59:39,919
Speaker 2: got Shallas as a third baseman. I think he's gonna stick.

1091
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:41,920
Speaker 2: I think he's definitely gonna move. But how great is

1092
00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:43,840
Speaker 2: it to have this problem that we have all of

1093
00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:45,200
Speaker 2: these guys that can play shortstop.

1094
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:47,280
Speaker 4: You know, they can't all stay here.

1095
00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:49,520
Speaker 2: Then you got the situation with Isan, So it's gonna

1096
00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 2: be something to follow as this rebuild fills out.

1097
00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:53,360
Speaker 4: What do they do with this middle infield. It's gonna

1098
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 4: be great.

1099
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:57,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, they still have just to draft of a couple

1100
00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,560
Speaker 1: names that probably won't get drafted here. But we'll see

1101
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,520
Speaker 1: Nassim Nunez and Osyrus Johnson coming off a pretty significant

1102
01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,880
Speaker 1: jury for him, but before that, someone that had incredible

1103
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 1: offensive potential. And I mean, we'll see what they do

1104
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 1: this coming winter. In January fifteenth, the new international signing

1105
01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:20,080
Speaker 1: period opens and he's not eligible for this, but Yiddi Cape,

1106
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:23,080
Speaker 1: the Cuban shortstop that they've been linked to for a

1107
01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 1: couple of years now, is eventually going to become a

1108
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: Marlin as well. And he's someone that has a lot

1109
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:32,800
Speaker 1: of fascinating tools and projectability too. So yeah they have

1110
01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:35,600
Speaker 1: I mean, forcibly, some of these guys are going to

1111
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 1: move off with shortstop, but it's a good problem to have.

1112
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:46,120
Speaker 3: Oh well, e like you mentioned my next pick at shortstop,

1113
01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:51,240
Speaker 3: also from that twenty nineteen draft, Nasie Nunia's man. This

1114
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:59,000
Speaker 3: is gold glove, upside, amazing personality. How great he'll be,

1115
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 3: you know, how great he'll end up being depends on

1116
01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 3: his bat because his fielding is there. His you know,

1117
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:12,760
Speaker 3: plus arm and plus plus plus plus run. He's still

1118
01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:16,080
Speaker 3: like thirty bases or something, you know, it was crazy,

1119
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 3: and he has that. I mean that that's ready. The

1120
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 3: bat has contact skill, but he just needs to develop

1121
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:28,360
Speaker 3: a bit more pop. Hopefully he'll grow into it. You

1122
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:31,480
Speaker 3: do see him a few videos of him pumping some iron,

1123
01:01:32,080 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 3: So the kid looks great. I love having him here

1124
01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:38,920
Speaker 3: a shortstop, especially with all this you know power I

1125
01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 3: built up here on my team. It's good to have

1126
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 3: a solid defense guy there. He's I would say he

1127
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:48,840
Speaker 3: may be the best defensive and fielder in system. But

1128
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:53,800
Speaker 3: it's true that Dever is also pretty amazing. So so yeah,

1129
01:01:53,840 --> 01:01:56,800
Speaker 3: this is this is my guy at shortstop, and.

1130
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 1: It's another we've seen this nail in this I'm kind

1131
01:01:59,960 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 1: of us staying away from this type of player in general,

1132
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 1: the ones that have almost no like minor league experience

1133
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 1: or haven't played full season ball yet. You guys are

1134
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:10,520
Speaker 1: pretty fearless about it going to these guys and and

1135
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:14,880
Speaker 1: just trusting what you see and what the other evaluators

1136
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:17,040
Speaker 1: are saying. And yeah, I respect that.

1137
01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:22,880
Speaker 3: How it's he's my only one, maybe Meisner, but you know,

1138
01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:26,120
Speaker 3: you know, the seam is my only guys like that.

1139
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:30,520
Speaker 3: It's Alex, who's a you can see, heavily prospect guy.

1140
01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:34,040
Speaker 3: And I mean, we have an amazing system, so can't blame.

1141
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:37,560
Speaker 1: Some of the stats that the scene put up in

1142
01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:41,680
Speaker 1: the GCL were just ridiculous. The stolen based frequency, the

1143
01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:44,120
Speaker 1: fact that he was stealing almost every single time he

1144
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:47,200
Speaker 1: got on base and the success rate was off the charts.

1145
01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:50,439
Speaker 1: And that team, I think they won the Gulf Coast

1146
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,760
Speaker 1: League Championship that year as well. It got the shortened season,

1147
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 1: but they were competing hard out there even though it

1148
01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:59,560
Speaker 1: was just rookie ball. And yeah, he's he's a fun

1149
01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:03,240
Speaker 1: guy and he's a good follow on Instagram as well,

1150
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,960
Speaker 1: A lot of these players are good follows on Instagram

1151
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:10,680
Speaker 1: that I recommend, But yeah, here number twenty four overall

1152
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 1: picker almost two thirds of the way through the draft.

1153
01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 1: Going back to Alex Carver.

1154
01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:22,320
Speaker 4: All right, guys, let's get first basement out of the way.

1155
01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:22,600
Speaker 1: For me.

1156
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:24,720
Speaker 2: I probably could have gotten this guy a little later,

1157
01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:26,760
Speaker 2: but I think I have a safe bet picking him here.

1158
01:03:27,720 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 2: You know, it's a deep dive here at first base

1159
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:30,880
Speaker 2: after the first two guys that we have.

1160
01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:35,560
Speaker 4: Of course, you know, it's tough because.

1161
01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:40,240
Speaker 2: When you have, you know, a lot at each corner,

1162
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:42,480
Speaker 2: but not a lot at both corners, like denman On

1163
01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 2: to have a little bit of third base depth, especially

1164
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:48,240
Speaker 2: with what they can move there in Salas and other guys.

1165
01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:51,480
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go here, and I'm gonna.

1166
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:53,640
Speaker 2: Go with a guy who really impressed me with his

1167
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:57,160
Speaker 2: work ethic, especially with what he was doing during the offseason.

1168
01:03:57,400 --> 01:03:58,560
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go Nick Ready.

1169
01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 2: Nick Ready, another guy with the pedigree for me, pedigree

1170
01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:05,760
Speaker 2: from Randy Ready who used to actually coach the Jupiter

1171
01:04:05,840 --> 01:04:07,600
Speaker 2: Hammerheads for a small time.

1172
01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:10,240
Speaker 4: Great family, good baseball family.

1173
01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:12,080
Speaker 2: So he grew up with it right, much like Conine,

1174
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,600
Speaker 2: who I picked earlier, grew up with baseball. Grew up

1175
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:17,200
Speaker 2: around a guy who was doing it for a living,

1176
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:19,320
Speaker 2: so I always love to see that in a prospect.

1177
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 2: For Nick himself, the swing and miss is massive. That

1178
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 2: is something he will need to definitely tone down. But

1179
01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:30,320
Speaker 2: watching him in early spring training, I saw him play

1180
01:04:30,360 --> 01:04:32,440
Speaker 2: in a couple of interest squad games, I believe against

1181
01:04:32,480 --> 01:04:33,320
Speaker 2: the National system.

1182
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,680
Speaker 4: I think I saw him play against the Houston system

1183
01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:36,120
Speaker 4: as well.

1184
01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:39,160
Speaker 2: You know, he lines the ball up well and as

1185
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 2: long as he's not getting out in front, as long

1186
01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:43,480
Speaker 2: as he makes contact, it's a guy that can make

1187
01:04:43,480 --> 01:04:46,920
Speaker 2: the ball fly. So in a very limited position, it's

1188
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:49,680
Speaker 2: a guy who I think has a very good ceiling.

1189
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:52,440
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Nick Ready here with the hopes that

1190
01:04:52,480 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 2: he moves to first base.

1191
01:04:53,840 --> 01:04:57,600
Speaker 1: So Nick Ready here, all right, Moving on to round

1192
01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:01,200
Speaker 1: number nine, twenty fifth overall PI, I'm going to use

1193
01:05:01,200 --> 01:05:04,480
Speaker 1: my wild card here at this point. I think a

1194
01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:06,240
Speaker 1: lot of my picks the rest of the way are

1195
01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:08,880
Speaker 1: safe just because of the way we've gone about it.

1196
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 1: But my wild card pick is unapologetically one of my

1197
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,200
Speaker 1: favorite players on the team, one of my favorite players

1198
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:21,040
Speaker 1: in the league right now. It's not Harold Ramirez. I

1199
01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:24,200
Speaker 1: think his stock is down too much to justify drafting him,

1200
01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 1: but I'm going to double down on right handed pitchers

1201
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:31,400
Speaker 1: and pick Pablo Lopez as my wild card. I can't

1202
01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:36,560
Speaker 1: imagine a team without him. He's a perfect ambassador for

1203
01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:40,760
Speaker 1: Marlins Baseball at this time, and never more so than

1204
01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:43,680
Speaker 1: coming off this twenty twenty season that he had. I

1205
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:45,920
Speaker 1: was high on him entering the year. I thought he

1206
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:49,400
Speaker 1: was could be the ace of the staff, and as

1207
01:05:49,400 --> 01:05:52,240
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier, that's kind of debatable with what Sandy

1208
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,800
Speaker 1: did this year as well, but they're almost co aces

1209
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:59,000
Speaker 1: at this point. Pablo putting together a full year, although

1210
01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:02,200
Speaker 1: I'll bet it was a short season, but even got

1211
01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:04,760
Speaker 1: his first chance at pitching in the postseason out of

1212
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,480
Speaker 1: the way. Only twenty four years old, he's going to

1213
01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:10,959
Speaker 1: be turning twenty five heading into spring training next year.

1214
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:15,680
Speaker 1: And he is just a really well rounded pitcher, a

1215
01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,640
Speaker 1: guy that has since the Models acquired him in the

1216
01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 1: heist of a trade from the Seattle Mariners, and that

1217
01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:25,520
Speaker 1: David Phelpsteel, He's been just consistently getting better when he's

1218
01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,920
Speaker 1: at least when he's been healthy, adding fastball ve low,

1219
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:33,560
Speaker 1: mastering that change up, a legitimate plus pitch that he's

1220
01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 1: been able to get a lot of swing and miss

1221
01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 1: out of and the way that he attacks the strike

1222
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:45,200
Speaker 1: zone getting himself in favorable accounts that he's really set

1223
01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:47,760
Speaker 1: himself up moving forward I think to be a sustainable,

1224
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:52,320
Speaker 1: really effective pitcher for years in years to come. I

1225
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:56,560
Speaker 1: mentioned even before my concerns about the durability he has

1226
01:06:56,560 --> 01:06:59,120
Speaker 1: missed some time with shoulder issues. This twenty twenty one

1227
01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:01,200
Speaker 1: season is going to be a very big test for

1228
01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:04,760
Speaker 1: him because not that far behind him in this organization.

1229
01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:07,800
Speaker 1: You guys have already picked some of these guys with

1230
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:11,520
Speaker 1: six do Sanchez, Max Meyer, and Trevor Rodgers. If you

1231
01:07:11,640 --> 01:07:14,080
Speaker 1: slip up, if you have one off year, if you

1232
01:07:14,080 --> 01:07:16,880
Speaker 1: have one off like half a season, then all of

1233
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 1: a sudden, you plunge down the depth chart or you

1234
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,880
Speaker 1: get relegated to the bullpen. That even as impressive as

1235
01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:26,720
Speaker 1: he was in twenty twenty, this stuff can change in

1236
01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:31,800
Speaker 1: an eyeblink, especially for pitchers. But Pablo puts so much

1237
01:07:31,840 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 1: thought into the way that he pitches, and in his

1238
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:38,240
Speaker 1: preparation to pitch, he really took advantage of that COVID

1239
01:07:38,320 --> 01:07:42,520
Speaker 1: hiatus to rethink how he wants to attack opponents, and

1240
01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:44,680
Speaker 1: we saw that in the results. I mean, he was

1241
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:48,640
Speaker 1: very briefly in the fringe of the cy Young competition.

1242
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,640
Speaker 1: I don't see him ever really winning the award, but

1243
01:07:51,720 --> 01:07:53,360
Speaker 1: he's someone that I think could be an All Star

1244
01:07:53,520 --> 01:07:57,760
Speaker 1: multiple times during this upcoming decade. And I think that's

1245
01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 1: all you want. So it's especially with this particular team

1246
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:04,880
Speaker 1: I put together, there are some questions about the defensive

1247
01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:07,160
Speaker 1: fit at a number of positions. I want guys that

1248
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:11,640
Speaker 1: limit their walks, guys that can generate a lot of

1249
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:13,440
Speaker 1: ground balls. That was a big step forward that he

1250
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,599
Speaker 1: took this year as well, that yeah, he could get

1251
01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:18,720
Speaker 1: you out in a lot of ways, and I really

1252
01:08:18,760 --> 01:08:19,719
Speaker 1: trust him moving forward.

1253
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,639
Speaker 2: And it's just the point here on Pablo for me, Eli,

1254
01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:27,800
Speaker 2: you can't find a better person right in the entire

1255
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:30,759
Speaker 2: organization than Pablo Lopez. Like as we're recording this today,

1256
01:08:31,040 --> 01:08:33,200
Speaker 2: you see him out at the Marlins, you know, Marlin's

1257
01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:35,080
Speaker 2: Impact Turkey Drive that they did today, and of course

1258
01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:36,719
Speaker 2: he's one of the guys they are handing out meals

1259
01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:38,600
Speaker 2: to people that are in need, along with Jeter and

1260
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:39,320
Speaker 2: Sherman and the like.

1261
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:41,000
Speaker 4: So can't find a nicer guy.

1262
01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:44,280
Speaker 2: And as you alluded to, probably the smartest guy in

1263
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 2: the organization, which just you know, goes towards what you

1264
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:49,920
Speaker 2: mentioned with his headiness to pitch. So I mean the

1265
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:53,280
Speaker 2: former doctor or would be doctor, I should say, if

1266
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:53,960
Speaker 2: not for baseball.

1267
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:55,559
Speaker 4: So can ask for much more out of a person

1268
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:56,840
Speaker 4: than Pablo. So love him.

1269
01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:01,960
Speaker 3: He was so important to our team last season. Last

1270
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:05,439
Speaker 3: season without him, forget about the playoffs. He kept us

1271
01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:10,360
Speaker 3: alive at a time where you know, everything really seemed grim.

1272
01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:16,320
Speaker 3: So yeah, solid pick for my next pick. I am

1273
01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:19,960
Speaker 3: going to grab a guy who is going to I'm

1274
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 3: gonna call it here, put in some bells or something.

1275
01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:26,240
Speaker 3: This guy is going to explode next year. This is

1276
01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:28,120
Speaker 3: this guy's gonna be a top one hundred pick by

1277
01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:31,639
Speaker 3: the end of the year. Just write it down, all right.

1278
01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 3: Connor Scott outfielder Connor Scott. He he is a five

1279
01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:48,080
Speaker 3: tool threat as well. He has started his professional career slow.

1280
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:54,920
Speaker 3: I feel like he has been challenged aggressively bye bye

1281
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,760
Speaker 3: by you know, Marlin's front office. As soon as he

1282
01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:01,599
Speaker 3: got drafted, they sent him to low A. Last season

1283
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:03,639
Speaker 3: he was in Low A and they challenged him again

1284
01:10:03,720 --> 01:10:07,000
Speaker 3: to go to to Hi A. He started low A

1285
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:10,800
Speaker 3: kind of mediocre, but kind of found his stride and

1286
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:17,800
Speaker 3: really really hard high a Florida Stay League. I'm really

1287
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:21,559
Speaker 3: confident that this guy, I mean, he found something and

1288
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:24,120
Speaker 3: that he's next season he's going to show what he's

1289
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:27,760
Speaker 3: made of. He has the power, he has speed, he

1290
01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:31,519
Speaker 3: has the defense, arm et cetera. So I'm really I'm

1291
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:34,080
Speaker 3: really confident on what he can do. So so yeah,

1292
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:36,080
Speaker 3: it's my starred outfielder Connor Scott.

1293
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:43,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, another guy that I mean, frankly, I watched him

1294
01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 1: a little bit during the middle of the twenty nineteen season.

1295
01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:48,880
Speaker 1: I think I got him on a great time where

1296
01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:53,480
Speaker 1: even though the numbers at no point really like statistically

1297
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:55,800
Speaker 1: there was never that fiery hot stretch, but just the

1298
01:10:55,920 --> 01:10:59,080
Speaker 1: quality of his at bats against much older competition right

1299
01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:03,040
Speaker 1: before he got promoted up to Jupiter, it really wowed me.

1300
01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:08,640
Speaker 1: And also defensively for a guy that isn't very graceful,

1301
01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:12,120
Speaker 1: that it's not sexy the way that he goes about things,

1302
01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:15,200
Speaker 1: but I don't think it matters. I think he can

1303
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:19,240
Speaker 1: really make all the plays out there. So he's and

1304
01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:22,960
Speaker 1: someone that is still super duper young, and there's so

1305
01:11:23,040 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 1: much potential to unlock right there. Yeah, a couple more

1306
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:27,960
Speaker 1: seconds if you want to use it, Alex. As we

1307
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 1: get here at the twenty seventh overall pick of this.

1308
01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:37,640
Speaker 2: Draft, yeah, so let's round out the outfield here for me.

1309
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,240
Speaker 2: You know, I obviously have Burdick and Conine, but who

1310
01:11:41,240 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 2: plays center field in the middle of them? For me here,

1311
01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:47,800
Speaker 2: I'm going with one of the two brothers. And which

1312
01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:51,320
Speaker 2: one is it going to be. There's a lot of

1313
01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:54,880
Speaker 2: hate out on Victor Victor because of what he did

1314
01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:58,760
Speaker 2: in Jupiter last year. I think that's not the guy

1315
01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 2: you're going to see going forward. Love Victor Jr. He's

1316
01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:04,280
Speaker 2: got much farther of a way to go. So if

1317
01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:06,760
Speaker 2: we're talking about the next ten years here, for the

1318
01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:13,080
Speaker 2: process of your exercise, Eli, I'm going with Victor Victor Mesa. Obviously,

1319
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,360
Speaker 2: we spent what we spent on him for a reason, right.

1320
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:17,840
Speaker 2: This guy wasn't scouted to come in and go to

1321
01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:20,360
Speaker 2: Jupiter and do what he did and then just come

1322
01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:23,559
Speaker 2: into next year and flop again. No, this guy's gonna

1323
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:25,840
Speaker 2: turn it around. You see him on his social media.

1324
01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 2: He's putting in cage work, he's improving his swing. I

1325
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:32,280
Speaker 2: really think he's improved his swing path most of all

1326
01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 2: from what I see in his videos, from videos in

1327
01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:38,040
Speaker 2: Jupiter last year to what he's doing now. Swing Plane

1328
01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:40,599
Speaker 2: looks great, it's got more uppercut to I think he's

1329
01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,439
Speaker 2: gonna come by more power swing a myths needs work, yes,

1330
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,639
Speaker 2: but all that said, I think this is a guy

1331
01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:48,559
Speaker 2: that's gonna come back with a vengeance next year in

1332
01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:52,639
Speaker 2: twenty in excuse me, next minor league season, and we're

1333
01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:53,639
Speaker 2: really gonna see him pop.

1334
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:55,840
Speaker 4: So yeah, Victor, Victor mesa for me right here.

1335
01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:59,919
Speaker 1: I go back and forth on him. There are times

1336
01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:02,680
Speaker 1: where I was I was one of his strongest supporters,

1337
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:06,519
Speaker 1: like midway through that season, because I thought, you know,

1338
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:08,679
Speaker 1: the floor was pretty high with what he was doing

1339
01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:11,800
Speaker 1: as a defender and as a base runner. But I mean,

1340
01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:16,680
Speaker 1: the quality of contact was I don't want to use

1341
01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:19,840
Speaker 1: too strong a word, but it was discouraging. It was

1342
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:23,880
Speaker 1: very discouraging that he is whatever he was doing, it

1343
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:28,400
Speaker 1: wasn't working during twenty nineteen. So it's been so long though,

1344
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows, who knows exactly what adjustments he's

1345
01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:36,160
Speaker 1: been making with that he's I mean, it was pretty

1346
01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:38,880
Speaker 1: he was somewhat of a divisive guy, a mysterious guy

1347
01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:43,720
Speaker 1: before they signed him. But I mean, the best case

1348
01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:47,800
Speaker 1: scenario with him is pretty tantalizing as well. And even

1349
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:49,800
Speaker 1: as a guy that is much older than his brother,

1350
01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:52,840
Speaker 1: He's he's really not that old to begin with, about

1351
01:13:52,840 --> 01:13:56,240
Speaker 1: twenty four years old as of this moment. That, yeah,

1352
01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:58,600
Speaker 1: there's still plenty of time and opportunity for him to

1353
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:01,080
Speaker 1: figure it out. We are three quarters of the way

1354
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:04,559
Speaker 1: through the draft, so now at this point we're just

1355
01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:07,200
Speaker 1: like trying to fill things out with Team Alex. All

1356
01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:10,120
Speaker 1: he's gonna need in these final three rounds are second baseman,

1357
01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:14,320
Speaker 1: a DH, and a wild card. Team Daniel is going

1358
01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 1: to be looking for a third baseman, a DH, and

1359
01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:23,160
Speaker 1: a wild card. And I'm gonna be looking for a catcher,

1360
01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:26,439
Speaker 1: a DH, and a left handed pitcher. I'm gonna start

1361
01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:29,800
Speaker 1: with a lefty here to begin Round ten. It is

1362
01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:33,120
Speaker 1: We've mentioned him a couple times already. It is Braxton Garrett,

1363
01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:37,000
Speaker 1: the former first round draft pick recently debuted in the

1364
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:43,120
Speaker 1: majors during the shortened season. He's, yeah, he has a

1365
01:14:43,200 --> 01:14:47,040
Speaker 1: lot of these basics that you love about him. I

1366
01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:49,799
Speaker 1: mean it starts really with that curveball, that plus plus

1367
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,760
Speaker 1: curveball that has a beautiful shape to it, that has

1368
01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:56,640
Speaker 1: such a big separation with his fastball, even though the

1369
01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:59,040
Speaker 1: fact that he doesn't get all that much v low

1370
01:14:59,120 --> 01:15:03,000
Speaker 1: on the fastball with especially I think it was one

1371
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:04,800
Speaker 1: of you that was a little concerned with what we

1372
01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:07,479
Speaker 1: saw from him in his two major league starts because

1373
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,519
Speaker 1: the v low was probably even lower than advertised. There

1374
01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,960
Speaker 1: were some endings where he was struggling to even reach

1375
01:15:13,280 --> 01:15:16,920
Speaker 1: ninety on that pitch, and there's only so far you

1376
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:20,360
Speaker 1: can go without pinpoint commands. That's something that he still

1377
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:23,080
Speaker 1: needs to show in that department, is being more consistent

1378
01:15:23,240 --> 01:15:25,679
Speaker 1: with the way he attacks his own and getting into

1379
01:15:26,040 --> 01:15:30,040
Speaker 1: more favorable counts. But I mean, all things considered, going

1380
01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:33,519
Speaker 1: back to twenty nineteen, that first year off of Tommy

1381
01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:37,360
Speaker 1: John was pretty encouraging with what he did against mostly

1382
01:15:37,400 --> 01:15:41,320
Speaker 1: older competition, shaking off the rust, the way he was

1383
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:44,719
Speaker 1: missing bats, not just with his curve ball, but little

1384
01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 1: strides forward that he's taking with the change up as well.

1385
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:49,920
Speaker 1: You know, that's going to make or break whether he's

1386
01:15:50,160 --> 01:15:53,920
Speaker 1: really a starter is whether that changeup comes along, and also,

1387
01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:58,240
Speaker 1: of course whether that commands comes along. He'll probably need

1388
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:01,160
Speaker 1: all of that, especially if the fastball v low doesn't

1389
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:04,360
Speaker 1: fully come back to what it was pre surgery, so

1390
01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:07,880
Speaker 1: still wait and see mode with him. Frankly, a lot

1391
01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:11,160
Speaker 1: of the lefties in this organization, once we gets pasted Rogers,

1392
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:13,720
Speaker 1: once we gets fat Tess Rogers, there's a lot of

1393
01:16:13,800 --> 01:16:16,599
Speaker 1: questions about the lefties in this organization, so much pitching depth,

1394
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,160
Speaker 1: but a lot of the high ends guys are righty.

1395
01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:23,960
Speaker 1: But I still believe in Braxton Garrett. He puts in

1396
01:16:24,600 --> 01:16:26,559
Speaker 1: a lot of work. I think the further that he

1397
01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,240
Speaker 1: gets away from that surgery and the closer that he

1398
01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:32,400
Speaker 1: gets to kind of a normal season. He hasn't really

1399
01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:35,559
Speaker 1: had a normal season since turning pro. I mean some

1400
01:16:35,640 --> 01:16:38,439
Speaker 1: bad luck with injuries and now of course with COVID

1401
01:16:38,479 --> 01:16:39,960
Speaker 1: like this was supposed to be a very important year

1402
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:43,880
Speaker 1: for him to build up and to focus on developments,

1403
01:16:43,920 --> 01:16:45,720
Speaker 1: and he was able to focus on development for most

1404
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:49,400
Speaker 1: of the summer, and then by necessity with all those

1405
01:16:49,400 --> 01:16:51,439
Speaker 1: double headers at the major league level to make up

1406
01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:55,360
Speaker 1: for those COVID postponements, who was rushed into action. And

1407
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:58,400
Speaker 1: he showed me enough during those couple starts to believe

1408
01:16:58,479 --> 01:17:03,240
Speaker 1: that there's still some decent upside with him. And I

1409
01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:06,559
Speaker 1: trust the person in him, and I trust the fact

1410
01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:09,960
Speaker 1: that He's still still so young. With almost all these players,

1411
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:12,240
Speaker 1: they have such a long future ahead of them. So

1412
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:15,280
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna steadily get better and better from

1413
01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:17,679
Speaker 1: what he saw in this first taste of the big leagues,

1414
01:17:17,720 --> 01:17:21,679
Speaker 1: his first cup of coffee. Moving on to Team Daniel

1415
01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:24,719
Speaker 1: here in the second in the tenth rounds, the second

1416
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:27,439
Speaker 1: pick of the tenth rounds, go ahead.

1417
01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:38,400
Speaker 3: I need to do something about that. The third base position,

1418
01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:40,400
Speaker 3: that one was hard. You know, there's not a lot

1419
01:17:40,400 --> 01:17:44,240
Speaker 3: of depth. Anderson was the obvious one. You took him

1420
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:48,720
Speaker 3: from me, Eli Jose Salas, I love him, you know,

1421
01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:52,479
Speaker 3: probably moving dad to third base. Alex got him. So

1422
01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:55,840
Speaker 3: I have a few options here, I mean, not real

1423
01:17:56,080 --> 01:18:00,439
Speaker 3: third base options, because again we're just so, we're just

1424
01:18:00,479 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 3: not deep. Joe Dunand, even though he hit a home

1425
01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:06,559
Speaker 3: run last night in the Dominican.

1426
01:18:08,439 --> 01:18:11,280
Speaker 1: I found was actually the postgame interview that he did

1427
01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:14,599
Speaker 1: after that, he was elated. He was lighting up. There

1428
01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:18,640
Speaker 1: are people talking about talking trash about his uncle, his

1429
01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:23,320
Speaker 1: uncle Alex Rodriguez heard of now eight rod never hit

1430
01:18:23,320 --> 01:18:26,439
Speaker 1: a home run in the Dominican Linter League. It was

1431
01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:29,400
Speaker 1: like he had a lot of fun out there. So

1432
01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:32,120
Speaker 1: I'm happy for him, but I understand why. He's probably

1433
01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:33,160
Speaker 1: not oup of mind.

1434
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:36,040
Speaker 3: For you Yeah, not right now. Hopefully he doesn't get

1435
01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:38,240
Speaker 3: too hot, you know, maybe somebody will grab him the

1436
01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:41,640
Speaker 3: Rule five. I don't think so, but he went unprotected,

1437
01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:47,479
Speaker 3: and so with that in mind, I'm gonna just, you know,

1438
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:51,439
Speaker 3: reach into that shortstop depth that we have. And this

1439
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:55,799
Speaker 3: is a guy who we haven't seen much of because

1440
01:18:55,800 --> 01:19:00,439
Speaker 3: of an injury and obviously then COVID so nothing twenty nineteen,

1441
01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:03,240
Speaker 3: nothing twenty twenty. But he is definitely a guy we

1442
01:19:03,280 --> 01:19:08,519
Speaker 3: need to keep an eye on. Osirius Johnson. I do

1443
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:12,559
Speaker 3: see him moving to a third base in the future,

1444
01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:15,280
Speaker 3: or maybe to a second base, but I'm thinking third.

1445
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:18,120
Speaker 3: He did miss all of twenty nineteen with you know,

1446
01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:24,360
Speaker 3: because of a surgery. Elite bat speed, definitely a twenty

1447
01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:30,400
Speaker 3: home run caliber guy. The power is there. I remember

1448
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:32,800
Speaker 3: Batoel America said he has the best power in the

1449
01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:38,400
Speaker 3: in the twenty eighteen Marlin's class, and I definitely agree

1450
01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:43,000
Speaker 3: with that statement. So a bit of a risk, but

1451
01:19:43,880 --> 01:19:46,920
Speaker 3: I do believe that, you know, this guy has what

1452
01:19:46,960 --> 01:19:49,519
Speaker 3: it takes to make it. Let's see, you know, how

1453
01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:52,040
Speaker 3: he comes back and comes back next year. I've heard

1454
01:19:52,080 --> 01:19:57,000
Speaker 3: good things about instructional and he's part of that group

1455
01:19:57,080 --> 01:20:00,120
Speaker 3: of that you no buddies with within the seam, and

1456
01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:04,719
Speaker 3: so yeah, I like that third base short stop team

1457
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:05,559
Speaker 3: I put up there.

1458
01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:09,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Osiris was one of the youngest players in that

1459
01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:14,320
Speaker 1: entire draft class that can That's right, he was. I

1460
01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:16,559
Speaker 1: think he was still seventeen when they picked him.

1461
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:22,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, which does give me, give me that calm makes you.

1462
01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:26,320
Speaker 3: Lets me be optimistic about him missing that full season.

1463
01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:28,519
Speaker 3: You know he has a lot of time.

1464
01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:29,400
Speaker 4: Yeah.

1465
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:32,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. Continuing here in the tenth round, back to.

1466
01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 2: Alex comment on Osiris, which I was thinking of going

1467
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:42,240
Speaker 2: here for my pick, but obviously it's taken away. I

1468
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:46,760
Speaker 2: definitely think he moves to third, possibly second, which is

1469
01:20:46,800 --> 01:20:48,479
Speaker 2: where I was gonna go with my pick, but very

1470
01:20:48,560 --> 01:20:52,439
Speaker 2: likely third. Great hands, good arm, and twenty years old,

1471
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:53,760
Speaker 2: so you can't go wrong.

1472
01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:54,280
Speaker 4: Obviously.

1473
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:56,559
Speaker 2: I think he went through Tommy John actually, so you

1474
01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:57,840
Speaker 2: got to watch out for that with the arms be

1475
01:20:57,920 --> 01:20:58,719
Speaker 2: moving to third base.

1476
01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:01,479
Speaker 4: But that being said, I think is a good pick

1477
01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:01,880
Speaker 4: for Daniel.

1478
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:04,519
Speaker 2: Anyways, going to my pick here, I need second base,

1479
01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:08,880
Speaker 2: so I'm also drawing from that plethora of shortstop talent

1480
01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:12,840
Speaker 2: and I'm going with an all Behamian middle infield here

1481
01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:18,920
Speaker 2: guys okay, with shortstop Jash Chisholm and second base Ian Lewis.

1482
01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:22,880
Speaker 2: Ian Lewis from the same draft class as another pick

1483
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:26,840
Speaker 2: of mine, Joise Salas. If you read some of the

1484
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:31,439
Speaker 2: reports that are out on Ian, he comps right now

1485
01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:34,200
Speaker 2: to our old friend Dee Gordon, and how could you

1486
01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:34,800
Speaker 2: go wrong with that?

1487
01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:35,360
Speaker 3: Right?

1488
01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:37,479
Speaker 2: You got the speed, you got the hands, you got

1489
01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:40,679
Speaker 2: the arm, you know everything that you need. So I

1490
01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:44,760
Speaker 2: definitely think Ian Lewis is another guy who's a bit

1491
01:21:44,800 --> 01:21:47,320
Speaker 2: far away, probably won't see him for maybe another three,

1492
01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:51,679
Speaker 2: possibly four years, but a guy who obviously the Marlins

1493
01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:54,479
Speaker 2: had an eye on there in the international draft, in

1494
01:21:54,560 --> 01:21:59,520
Speaker 2: the same class as we said with other standouts. So yeah,

1495
01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:03,040
Speaker 2: I think Fernanda Saguanal, who headed that international draft, did

1496
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:05,960
Speaker 2: an amazing job. I believe in every single one of

1497
01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,160
Speaker 2: those cats from that international draft, some of which we

1498
01:22:08,200 --> 01:22:10,400
Speaker 2: have it named, some of which we have so love Ian.

1499
01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:12,320
Speaker 4: I think he's gonna stand out next year. I think

1500
01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:13,160
Speaker 4: he's really going to show it.

1501
01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:15,160
Speaker 2: So I think he moves off of shortstop to go

1502
01:22:15,200 --> 01:22:17,519
Speaker 2: to second base, but everything you need at second base,

1503
01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:19,320
Speaker 2: so love the de Gordon com too, So yeah, Ian

1504
01:22:19,360 --> 01:22:20,040
Speaker 2: Lewis from me there.

1505
01:22:21,240 --> 01:22:24,000
Speaker 1: He yeah, he was a participant. I think the youngest

1506
01:22:24,040 --> 01:22:27,479
Speaker 1: guy that was in this like New Year's Home Run

1507
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:29,519
Speaker 1: derby that they had in the Bahamas that they do

1508
01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:34,000
Speaker 1: every year. It was early January. He was there with

1509
01:22:34,120 --> 01:22:37,320
Speaker 1: Jazz and with Monte and Lewis. Brinson won that event.

1510
01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:39,840
Speaker 1: But but Ian put on a good show. I think

1511
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:42,240
Speaker 1: he did a handful of home runs into the ocean,

1512
01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:45,800
Speaker 1: and that impressively for a guy that still has a

1513
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:48,400
Speaker 1: lot of even if he's just a second base when

1514
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:50,120
Speaker 1: he's going to put on quite a bit of weight

1515
01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:52,680
Speaker 1: on that frame based on where he is now. So

1516
01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:56,880
Speaker 1: infinite possibilities with him, whether he stays as a de

1517
01:22:57,000 --> 01:22:59,679
Speaker 1: Gordon type or bulks up a little bit and turns

1518
01:22:59,720 --> 01:23:02,679
Speaker 1: into somewhat of a hybrid kind of guy. Final two

1519
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:05,280
Speaker 1: rounds that we're heading into, Alex is gonna be looking

1520
01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:08,200
Speaker 1: for a DH and wild card. Daniel is gonna be

1521
01:23:08,200 --> 01:23:11,400
Speaker 1: looking for his DH and wild card. I'm gonna be

1522
01:23:11,400 --> 01:23:14,800
Speaker 1: looking for my DH and my catcher here in round

1523
01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:19,080
Speaker 1: number eleven, I'm gonna start with my designated hitter, someone

1524
01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:21,759
Speaker 1: that probably didn't even come to mind for you guys,

1525
01:23:21,800 --> 01:23:24,640
Speaker 1: his stock is down quite a bit coming off the

1526
01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:28,639
Speaker 1: twenty twenty season. Corey Dickerson, who has one more year

1527
01:23:29,080 --> 01:23:31,680
Speaker 1: left on his contract with the Marlins. He's gonna be

1528
01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 1: the second highest paid player on the Marlins this year,

1529
01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:39,200
Speaker 1: and he was tough to watch this past season. I think,

1530
01:23:39,800 --> 01:23:42,280
Speaker 1: at least in my opinion, it was a really good

1531
01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:44,280
Speaker 1: value that they got him at as a free agent

1532
01:23:44,360 --> 01:23:47,800
Speaker 1: two years seventeen and a half million dollars, and he

1533
01:23:47,920 --> 01:23:51,680
Speaker 1: very quietly was one of the better hitting outfielders in

1534
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:55,320
Speaker 1: the majors for the last half decade with Rockies, with

1535
01:23:55,439 --> 01:24:00,439
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, with Pittsburgh as well. And I mean, I

1536
01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:02,759
Speaker 1: guess the most clear thing that we saw in watching

1537
01:24:02,800 --> 01:24:07,480
Speaker 1: him every single day is that the defensive reputation was misleading.

1538
01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:09,120
Speaker 1: He was a guy that won a Gold Glove with

1539
01:24:09,160 --> 01:24:12,200
Speaker 1: the Pirates in twenty eighteen, but from watching him every day,

1540
01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:14,360
Speaker 1: it was a struggle out there, a lot of routine

1541
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:18,720
Speaker 1: plays that didn't work. So I'm downplaying those concerns by

1542
01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:21,800
Speaker 1: shifting him to DH and realistically, giving where he is

1543
01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:24,360
Speaker 1: in his career, that's what he would have to be

1544
01:24:24,400 --> 01:24:27,599
Speaker 1: for this team. He's thirty one years old, turns thirty

1545
01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:32,040
Speaker 1: two early next year. But for guys like him that

1546
01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:34,200
Speaker 1: if you look at his career overall, someone that is

1547
01:24:34,240 --> 01:24:39,000
Speaker 1: consistently twenty percent sometimes twenty five percent better than the

1548
01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:42,320
Speaker 1: league average at the plate, hitting for great power, better

1549
01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:45,080
Speaker 1: than average contact skills, and those contact skills were still

1550
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:49,320
Speaker 1: there this year. And that's why I'm not totally jumping

1551
01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:52,800
Speaker 1: ship with him. With some older players, you see that

1552
01:24:52,920 --> 01:24:54,760
Speaker 1: in their decline where they just don't have the same

1553
01:24:54,760 --> 01:24:58,599
Speaker 1: bat speed they used to have or and for that reason,

1554
01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:00,559
Speaker 1: either they missed the ball more or or they foul

1555
01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 1: off more pitches and get behind in the count. And

1556
01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:06,080
Speaker 1: for him, he works deep counts, but you're still able

1557
01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:07,679
Speaker 1: to get balls and play at the end of the day.

1558
01:25:08,320 --> 01:25:11,559
Speaker 1: A complicated year for him. On a personal side, he

1559
01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:13,840
Speaker 1: lost his grandfather right in the middle of the year,

1560
01:25:14,040 --> 01:25:18,400
Speaker 1: and I think for all of us that in the

1561
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:22,320
Speaker 1: midst of this pandemic, how extra challenging it is to

1562
01:25:23,320 --> 01:25:26,479
Speaker 1: grieve when you lose somebody and aren't able to have

1563
01:25:26,840 --> 01:25:29,479
Speaker 1: that same type of coping mechanism that we usually have

1564
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:32,200
Speaker 1: in terms of being around our loved ones. That I

1565
01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:35,120
Speaker 1: think that really threw them off, and that's why I'm

1566
01:25:35,160 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 1: not going to overreact to what we saw during the

1567
01:25:37,320 --> 01:25:41,160
Speaker 1: shortened season. He's someone that has had durability issues in

1568
01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:44,080
Speaker 1: the past, and I don't know exactly what that's going

1569
01:25:44,120 --> 01:25:47,160
Speaker 1: to look like moving forward. But we're pretty late here

1570
01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:49,880
Speaker 1: in the draft, and there's a lot of still solid

1571
01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:52,240
Speaker 1: bats in this minor league system that I could have

1572
01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:55,200
Speaker 1: picked from. But with him, he just has this really

1573
01:25:55,439 --> 01:25:59,080
Speaker 1: long track record pre twenty twenty of being an impact

1574
01:25:59,120 --> 01:26:01,719
Speaker 1: bad and so I'm going to bet on a bounce

1575
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:06,400
Speaker 1: back with him being a really solid hitter, even if

1576
01:26:06,439 --> 01:26:08,639
Speaker 1: it's not a true everyday player for the next handful

1577
01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:12,360
Speaker 1: of years, and even if you're punting the final few

1578
01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:15,639
Speaker 1: years of this ten year window, I think it's still

1579
01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:21,360
Speaker 1: a fair value at this stage. Did you guys remember

1580
01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:22,839
Speaker 1: that Dickerson is still on the Marlins.

1581
01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:27,519
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1582
01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:30,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I could understand a lot of people are

1583
01:26:31,120 --> 01:26:35,000
Speaker 1: kind of over him. But yeah, I mean, especially in

1584
01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:37,240
Speaker 1: this market, they're gonna have trouble getting rid of that

1585
01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:39,840
Speaker 1: contract even if they wanted to. So I think one

1586
01:26:39,880 --> 01:26:42,160
Speaker 1: way or another, he's gonna be on this team. I

1587
01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:44,160
Speaker 1: don't know what that playing time looks like. I don't know,

1588
01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:47,160
Speaker 1: but they're they're gonna give him a shot. I mean,

1589
01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:49,599
Speaker 1: they don't really have much of a choice.

1590
01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:54,559
Speaker 3: If it's a strictly hitting it's it's it's a good pick,

1591
01:26:55,400 --> 01:26:59,160
Speaker 3: which is a perfect segue for my pick. I. I

1592
01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:03,960
Speaker 3: do agree that there is some good hitting left in

1593
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:07,240
Speaker 3: the minors, but couldn't do it man. I had to

1594
01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:10,519
Speaker 3: stick with with the best hitter there is in the world.

1595
01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:19,200
Speaker 3: Alex has a Bahamian duo in his team. Well, I'm

1596
01:27:19,200 --> 01:27:22,960
Speaker 3: gonna have a Colombian due on my team. Hidden Harold

1597
01:27:23,400 --> 01:27:30,479
Speaker 3: andrech Ramirez for my DH spot. He can hit, man,

1598
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:34,600
Speaker 3: he will hit anywhere. He will hit contact power. I

1599
01:27:34,680 --> 01:27:39,160
Speaker 3: believe in him, great attitude, always with a smile in

1600
01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:44,200
Speaker 3: his face. I think it's, you know, great team member,

1601
01:27:44,320 --> 01:27:48,559
Speaker 3: great for the clubhouse and does even though he is

1602
01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:51,160
Speaker 3: pretty new to the majors, he does have his experience.

1603
01:27:51,680 --> 01:27:54,400
Speaker 3: Even though he's not old, he's only twenty six, still

1604
01:27:54,479 --> 01:27:59,520
Speaker 3: has what like five years of control I believe left.

1605
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:03,439
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna put Harold Hidden Harold Ramirez as as

1606
01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:04,559
Speaker 3: my team's h.

1607
01:28:07,040 --> 01:28:09,240
Speaker 1: I let him go. I mean, he finished the year

1608
01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:12,120
Speaker 1: with that hamstring issue, but I think you know this

1609
01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:14,280
Speaker 1: better than I do. That he's suiting up to play

1610
01:28:14,720 --> 01:28:17,600
Speaker 1: in the next few days in the professional league that

1611
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:18,639
Speaker 1: they have in Columbia.

1612
01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:22,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm not sure where he's going to play,

1613
01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:24,160
Speaker 3: but if he plays it for the same team as

1614
01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,639
Speaker 3: he did last or yeah it was it last year,

1615
01:28:28,400 --> 01:28:32,000
Speaker 3: which is my hometown team, the Bankia. He's gonna play

1616
01:28:32,040 --> 01:28:34,320
Speaker 3: the same team as Olfado is, so that'll be fun

1617
01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:34,759
Speaker 3: to watch.

1618
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:39,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's I've been pretty clear about how

1619
01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:41,960
Speaker 1: I root for Harold and rooting for the best with him,

1620
01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:45,400
Speaker 1: but it's I hope, So I hope he finds a

1621
01:28:45,479 --> 01:28:48,519
Speaker 1: role with this team. Forget forget your fake team here.

1622
01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:50,640
Speaker 1: I hope in real life that they carve out a

1623
01:28:50,720 --> 01:28:53,040
Speaker 1: role for him. But it's yeah, it's crowded. There's a

1624
01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:56,719
Speaker 1: lot of competition, and I mean he was the opening

1625
01:28:56,800 --> 01:29:00,840
Speaker 1: day cleanup hitter, if I remember correctly, that maddenly had

1626
01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:03,320
Speaker 1: a ton of faith and in coming out of summer camp.

1627
01:29:03,439 --> 01:29:06,160
Speaker 1: So yeah, so I hope for the best for him.

1628
01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:08,880
Speaker 1: I wasn't willing to roll the dice on him with

1629
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:12,200
Speaker 1: this team, but uh yeah, he is always he always

1630
01:29:12,240 --> 01:29:15,160
Speaker 1: has a place in my heart. As we moved onto

1631
01:29:15,560 --> 01:29:18,320
Speaker 1: back to Alex Carver, You're second to last pick in

1632
01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:20,160
Speaker 1: this Marlin's dream draft.

1633
01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:25,320
Speaker 2: All right, guys, here's the veteran of my squad. All right,

1634
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:29,320
Speaker 2: it's a guy who's faced a ton of hate from

1635
01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:33,120
Speaker 2: you know, everybody, including some people who you know are

1636
01:29:33,240 --> 01:29:36,840
Speaker 2: so called experts, to almost everybody in the Marlins fan base.

1637
01:29:37,200 --> 01:29:39,360
Speaker 2: But I'm going with my DH here, and I'm going

1638
01:29:39,360 --> 01:29:43,559
Speaker 2: with Lewis Brinson. Okay, Lewis Brinson. Let's just cite one

1639
01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:46,160
Speaker 2: stat about twenty twenty for Lewis Brinson, and this will

1640
01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:48,639
Speaker 2: point to exactly why I'm picking him and exactly why

1641
01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:51,920
Speaker 2: I think this latest set of adjustments. And yes, he's

1642
01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:54,759
Speaker 2: made many, but this latest set of adjustments is exactly

1643
01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:57,639
Speaker 2: what he needed. Twenty four hits on the season, small

1644
01:29:57,640 --> 01:29:59,920
Speaker 2: sample size the side, guys here, Okay, twenty four hit

1645
01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:03,559
Speaker 2: on the season, twelve twelve of those hits in the

1646
01:30:03,600 --> 01:30:06,559
Speaker 2: month of September. He's turning the corner. I don't care

1647
01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:09,920
Speaker 2: what anybody says. Lewis Brinson's turning the corner. He's ready

1648
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:11,760
Speaker 2: to be here. Is he going to stick in the

1649
01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:13,200
Speaker 2: outfield with all the Marlins have coming?

1650
01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:14,400
Speaker 4: Questionable?

1651
01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:17,479
Speaker 2: He still has a little competition to navigate when it

1652
01:30:17,479 --> 01:30:19,360
Speaker 2: comes to what we have coming. As far as DH

1653
01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:23,240
Speaker 2: including Gerar and maybe a couple of others or maybe

1654
01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:25,519
Speaker 2: some outside sources that we go to for it bat only.

1655
01:30:25,840 --> 01:30:26,679
Speaker 4: But I think if.

1656
01:30:26,640 --> 01:30:29,040
Speaker 2: Lewis turns the corner and starts tapping into that power

1657
01:30:29,600 --> 01:30:32,040
Speaker 2: and really starts staying straight away like he has been

1658
01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:35,040
Speaker 2: fighting balls off his hands, lengthening at bats is the

1659
01:30:35,080 --> 01:30:37,600
Speaker 2: biggest thing for Brinston. With me, I haven't broken to

1660
01:30:37,720 --> 01:30:40,320
Speaker 2: the you know, advanced metrics on that how many pitches he.

1661
01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:41,960
Speaker 4: Was seeing versus how many he was seeing earlier on.

1662
01:30:42,000 --> 01:30:44,200
Speaker 2: I have not broken into that, but I think it

1663
01:30:44,200 --> 01:30:46,519
Speaker 2: would favor him if we did, just putting that out there.

1664
01:30:46,680 --> 01:30:49,160
Speaker 2: So Lewis Brinston here for me, I think he's made

1665
01:30:49,160 --> 01:30:51,280
Speaker 2: the right adjustments. I think he's ready to go. I

1666
01:30:51,320 --> 01:30:55,120
Speaker 2: think he's ready to finally prove himself. So DH Lewis Brinson.

1667
01:30:57,439 --> 01:31:01,639
Speaker 1: It's here. He's this moment. One of the most popular

1668
01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:05,160
Speaker 1: players on the team. He had that iconic moment after

1669
01:31:05,479 --> 01:31:09,719
Speaker 1: the wild Card Series win, celebrating with the cigars. He's

1670
01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:14,720
Speaker 1: so easy to roof. For man, I'm kinda I was

1671
01:31:14,760 --> 01:31:17,799
Speaker 1: as shocked as anybody in particular he had that hot streak.

1672
01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:20,320
Speaker 1: I think it bridged the end of August to early

1673
01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:23,439
Speaker 1: September where he was for a couple of weeks there

1674
01:31:23,479 --> 01:31:26,800
Speaker 1: he was opsing right around a thousands, and that was

1675
01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:28,639
Speaker 1: the kind of thing that we never saw from him

1676
01:31:29,040 --> 01:31:32,519
Speaker 1: at all during those previous two years. So I'll give

1677
01:31:32,560 --> 01:31:35,480
Speaker 1: him credit for like finding a new level of performance,

1678
01:31:35,800 --> 01:31:37,960
Speaker 1: but I don't know if that new ceiling is anything

1679
01:31:38,040 --> 01:31:43,400
Speaker 1: more than like a fifth outfielder. But so many he's

1680
01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:47,360
Speaker 1: a guy that gets such a wide range of opinions,

1681
01:31:47,479 --> 01:31:51,519
Speaker 1: very polarizing guy based on ones that just focus on

1682
01:31:51,560 --> 01:31:55,240
Speaker 1: the stats versus the ones that believe in the tools

1683
01:31:55,479 --> 01:31:59,080
Speaker 1: and the fact that the pedigree and of course the

1684
01:31:59,439 --> 01:32:02,439
Speaker 1: work ethic that he has that his career could go

1685
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,240
Speaker 1: in a lot of different directions. So I think that's

1686
01:32:05,680 --> 01:32:07,439
Speaker 1: good value to get this late in the draft. I

1687
01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,240
Speaker 1: was never going to stay near him at this point.

1688
01:32:10,840 --> 01:32:14,760
Speaker 1: For me, I'm kind of skeptical, but he's Yeah. I

1689
01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:17,760
Speaker 1: hope for everybody's sake that he really figures it out

1690
01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:20,879
Speaker 1: and proves himself over the course of a full season.

1691
01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:25,360
Speaker 1: As we enter the final round of our draft, picks

1692
01:32:25,439 --> 01:32:28,439
Speaker 1: number thirty four thirty five in thirty six, we are

1693
01:32:28,479 --> 01:32:32,120
Speaker 1: filling out our rosters twelve players to a team I'm

1694
01:32:32,200 --> 01:32:34,599
Speaker 1: looking for a catcher, and I think it's very fitting

1695
01:32:34,600 --> 01:32:36,760
Speaker 1: that at the very bottom of my lineup I am

1696
01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:40,240
Speaker 1: putting Chad Wallack because he is a guy that no

1697
01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:42,760
Speaker 1: matter what lineup you are filling out, chadwalk is going

1698
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:44,720
Speaker 1: to be at the bottom of it. He's going to

1699
01:32:44,760 --> 01:32:47,639
Speaker 1: be nowhere else for the very bottom of your lineup

1700
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:51,880
Speaker 1: because offensively, he's not going to give you a whole lot.

1701
01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:55,639
Speaker 1: There were some bright spots in twenty nineteen offensively before

1702
01:32:55,640 --> 01:32:59,400
Speaker 1: he had a concussion, came back in twenty twenty, and

1703
01:32:59,680 --> 01:33:01,720
Speaker 1: once he got his opportunity, he got a couple key

1704
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:03,720
Speaker 1: hits as well, including one right towards the end of

1705
01:33:03,760 --> 01:33:07,040
Speaker 1: the year that helped him get a critical win against

1706
01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:10,600
Speaker 1: the Braves. But more so with him, it's just defensively.

1707
01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:14,639
Speaker 1: By all accounts, he just has a really great handle

1708
01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:18,400
Speaker 1: on how to call a game, on anticipating what to

1709
01:33:18,479 --> 01:33:21,200
Speaker 1: do with a pitcher's arsenal to get the most value

1710
01:33:21,200 --> 01:33:24,240
Speaker 1: out of it. The overall stats don't really pack it up.

1711
01:33:24,560 --> 01:33:26,360
Speaker 1: I mean, he was behind the play for a couple

1712
01:33:26,439 --> 01:33:30,519
Speaker 1: they're really ugly blowout losses, But I think he needed

1713
01:33:30,560 --> 01:33:33,880
Speaker 1: to defer to what people on the team are saying

1714
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:37,479
Speaker 1: about his ability to work with them, understand them, and

1715
01:33:37,680 --> 01:33:41,120
Speaker 1: I think by any measure, his career to this point

1716
01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:44,360
Speaker 1: has already been a bit more than we could have anticipated.

1717
01:33:44,360 --> 01:33:46,759
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody could have dreamed of him starting

1718
01:33:46,920 --> 01:33:51,759
Speaker 1: postseason games, much less starting every single postseason game behind

1719
01:33:51,760 --> 01:33:55,439
Speaker 1: the plate for Marlins team that was in that kind

1720
01:33:55,439 --> 01:33:58,240
Speaker 1: of situation. So that was a great streak he had.

1721
01:33:58,640 --> 01:34:01,160
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure he's gonna build upon what he

1722
01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:05,280
Speaker 1: did in twenty twenty. But he is twenty nine years old.

1723
01:34:05,320 --> 01:34:07,759
Speaker 1: I think he just turned twenty nine. He actually shares

1724
01:34:07,800 --> 01:34:11,360
Speaker 1: a November fourth birthday with me. He is one of

1725
01:34:11,400 --> 01:34:14,360
Speaker 1: the most the few major League Baseball players that is

1726
01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:18,480
Speaker 1: also born on November fourth, So that's good for him.

1727
01:34:19,080 --> 01:34:21,360
Speaker 1: But I'm really only going with him because of the

1728
01:34:21,439 --> 01:34:24,880
Speaker 1: very concerning catcher options that we have in this organization.

1729
01:34:25,320 --> 01:34:28,240
Speaker 1: Once we get past Alfaro and Banfield, it is, uh,

1730
01:34:28,680 --> 01:34:29,479
Speaker 1: it's kind of messy.

1731
01:34:29,720 --> 01:34:33,519
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's a it was him or a Nick

1732
01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:37,799
Speaker 3: Sportees or you put it. I saw you put a

1733
01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:43,559
Speaker 3: chemist Kumana swing a couple of days ago. Yes, yeah,

1734
01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:44,519
Speaker 3: he was also an option.

1735
01:34:44,680 --> 01:34:48,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, just the click backstory on that. The Marlins they

1736
01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:54,880
Speaker 1: protected nineteen new players from the Triple A phase of

1737
01:34:54,920 --> 01:34:57,479
Speaker 1: the Rule five draft, guys that they just didn't want

1738
01:34:57,479 --> 01:35:02,519
Speaker 1: to risk giving away. In the five it was a

1739
01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:04,600
Speaker 1: minor league portion, and that was the one player on

1740
01:35:04,640 --> 01:35:08,440
Speaker 1: that list that I did not know anything about whatever whatsoever.

1741
01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:11,560
Speaker 1: I don't think I had heard his name because he

1742
01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:14,839
Speaker 1: hadn't played stateside yet. And we'll see where he goes.

1743
01:35:15,600 --> 01:35:18,160
Speaker 1: He actually didn't play very much catcher at all during

1744
01:35:18,200 --> 01:35:21,680
Speaker 1: his most recent season in the Dominican Summer League. But

1745
01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:26,120
Speaker 1: Archimedes Kumana, that's a name to a name to know,

1746
01:35:26,280 --> 01:35:28,320
Speaker 1: not necessarily a player to know, but that's a great

1747
01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:29,840
Speaker 1: name to keep mind.

1748
01:35:30,240 --> 01:35:34,080
Speaker 4: So our piggybacking off of Archimedes common Arrow.

1749
01:35:34,160 --> 01:35:38,200
Speaker 1: By the way, yes, sure, here's the first name. There

1750
01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:41,799
Speaker 1: is some precedent for an Archimedes playing for the Marlins.

1751
01:35:42,200 --> 01:35:43,760
Speaker 4: He's got a lot to live up to, that's for sure.

1752
01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:50,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. Definitely one and fourth on my list, by.

1753
01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:54,639
Speaker 1: The way, miss just miss the top one hundred, just.

1754
01:35:54,720 --> 01:35:57,320
Speaker 3: Missed, you know, actually played more first base than catcher.

1755
01:35:57,360 --> 01:36:03,040
Speaker 3: But let's go all right for my last pick. I think, yeah,

1756
01:36:03,080 --> 01:36:06,280
Speaker 3: I just I mean, I was between you know, putting

1757
01:36:06,360 --> 01:36:10,680
Speaker 3: up some experience and some good leadership. I decided to

1758
01:36:10,800 --> 01:36:14,920
Speaker 3: just go pitching. I mean, we got two pitchers. I

1759
01:36:14,920 --> 01:36:16,680
Speaker 3: think best thing we can do is just add some

1760
01:36:16,800 --> 01:36:21,000
Speaker 3: depth just in case. And with that in mind, I mean,

1761
01:36:22,439 --> 01:36:25,360
Speaker 3: Eddie Man, that kid is going to be amazing. Eddie

1762
01:36:25,400 --> 01:36:31,280
Speaker 3: Cabrera is my wild card, another Dominican what's called him,

1763
01:36:31,360 --> 01:36:34,680
Speaker 3: Jamaican new Horse. I mean, the kid just looks amazing.

1764
01:36:35,439 --> 01:36:39,720
Speaker 3: One hundred plus small per hour fastball, better slighter than

1765
01:36:39,960 --> 01:36:44,639
Speaker 3: than six thoughs. From everything I've heard, it looks it's

1766
01:36:44,640 --> 01:36:47,200
Speaker 3: gonna be like it looks like an amazing wipe out pitch.

1767
01:36:47,360 --> 01:36:49,479
Speaker 3: The change up is also looking pretty good. Not six

1768
01:36:49,560 --> 01:36:53,599
Speaker 3: so good. But there are people who say that Eddie

1769
01:36:53,800 --> 01:36:55,800
Speaker 3: is going to be even better than six. Though that's

1770
01:36:55,880 --> 01:37:00,360
Speaker 3: that's pretty you know, tall order, but he's got that height,

1771
01:37:00,520 --> 01:37:05,360
Speaker 3: he's got the body, he's got the fastball an amazing

1772
01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:08,679
Speaker 3: you know. Twenty nineteen was an amazing improvement for him,

1773
01:37:08,800 --> 01:37:13,640
Speaker 3: especially with that slider not really changed it up for him.

1774
01:37:13,640 --> 01:37:16,040
Speaker 3: He would have debuted last season if it wasn't for

1775
01:37:16,479 --> 01:37:19,920
Speaker 3: an injury he had. I really wanted to see him

1776
01:37:19,920 --> 01:37:23,479
Speaker 3: in the in the n lnl DS, but a last

1777
01:37:23,680 --> 01:37:29,639
Speaker 3: didn't happen. Eddie Cabrera finishing up my my pitching rotation

1778
01:37:29,800 --> 01:37:32,480
Speaker 3: with six to zero and Trevor Rodgers.

1779
01:37:33,080 --> 01:37:37,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, awesome, Just an awesome potential that that guy has.

1780
01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,000
Speaker 1: And it's close. I was holding out of hope too

1781
01:37:40,040 --> 01:37:43,519
Speaker 1: that we're gonna see him make that rare debut during

1782
01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:46,120
Speaker 1: the postseason. It seems like there was an opportunity for that.

1783
01:37:46,920 --> 01:37:49,080
Speaker 1: Probably wouldn't have made the difference, I don't think in

1784
01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:52,559
Speaker 1: that Brave series, but it would have been just one

1785
01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:55,080
Speaker 1: little positive takeaway to get from that. So instead we

1786
01:37:55,120 --> 01:37:57,800
Speaker 1: have to wait, you know, another six months or eight

1787
01:37:57,840 --> 01:38:00,479
Speaker 1: months or so from the breakthrough. But yeah, once he

1788
01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:03,120
Speaker 1: breaks through, he's gonna be electric. And here we go

1789
01:38:03,560 --> 01:38:07,320
Speaker 1: mister irrelevant as they call this with other drafts, the

1790
01:38:07,400 --> 01:38:10,439
Speaker 1: very final pick of the draft. But in this case

1791
01:38:11,120 --> 01:38:13,960
Speaker 1: with the Marlins, there are no mister irrelevants because this

1792
01:38:14,120 --> 01:38:16,760
Speaker 1: organization is so deep in quality options and guys that

1793
01:38:16,840 --> 01:38:19,519
Speaker 1: can impact the game in different ways. And with Alex,

1794
01:38:19,640 --> 01:38:21,800
Speaker 1: you've saved your wild card pick, so you can go

1795
01:38:22,439 --> 01:38:25,760
Speaker 1: in literally a couple hundred different directions here to fill

1796
01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:27,680
Speaker 1: out your team. Who is it?

1797
01:38:28,920 --> 01:38:31,360
Speaker 4: So I know you think I'm gonna pick Eli.

1798
01:38:31,600 --> 01:38:34,120
Speaker 2: I know who Daniel thinks I'm gonna pick, but I'm

1799
01:38:34,120 --> 01:38:37,599
Speaker 2: gonna throw a curveball quite literally both of you guys,

1800
01:38:37,960 --> 01:38:40,559
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna take I'm gonna take Daniel's guy.

1801
01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:47,000
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna take right here as your last pick,

1802
01:38:47,360 --> 01:38:48,240
Speaker 4: as the last pick.

1803
01:38:48,880 --> 01:38:50,400
Speaker 2: I called it out the ELI when he told us

1804
01:38:50,400 --> 01:38:52,560
Speaker 2: about this, that if he's there, he's there at the

1805
01:38:52,600 --> 01:38:54,240
Speaker 2: end of the draft. I'm gonna take him, and I'm

1806
01:38:54,240 --> 01:38:56,080
Speaker 2: taking them, but not just because he's Daniel's guy. I'm

1807
01:38:56,080 --> 01:38:58,360
Speaker 2: gonna take him for a couple of different reasons. Look

1808
01:38:58,400 --> 01:39:01,800
Speaker 2: at what this guy did. And Okay, the videos are

1809
01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:03,960
Speaker 2: out on him for a reason. Okay, these videos are

1810
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:06,280
Speaker 2: being published on this guy, and the words about him

1811
01:39:06,320 --> 01:39:07,639
Speaker 2: are being spoken for a reason.

1812
01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,280
Speaker 4: The size. Let's talk about the size. Number one. Okay,

1813
01:39:11,640 --> 01:39:13,280
Speaker 4: he's just a kid.

1814
01:39:13,160 --> 01:39:15,840
Speaker 2: Just out of you know, his home country, brand new

1815
01:39:15,840 --> 01:39:17,920
Speaker 2: here in the States. I don't care if he's throwing

1816
01:39:17,920 --> 01:39:20,559
Speaker 2: pitches against his own guys. To me, that's even quite

1817
01:39:20,560 --> 01:39:22,439
Speaker 2: more impressive because these guys continue to see him a

1818
01:39:22,479 --> 01:39:25,320
Speaker 2: couple times and he's still able to get strikes. So, yeah,

1819
01:39:25,479 --> 01:39:29,280
Speaker 2: Petes is a guy here for me with three pitches already.

1820
01:39:29,360 --> 01:39:32,920
Speaker 2: The way that he is already masking arm speed on

1821
01:39:32,960 --> 01:39:35,320
Speaker 2: these pitches. For me, and I've watched his videos like

1822
01:39:35,360 --> 01:39:36,960
Speaker 2: ten thousand times. I don't care if there are only

1823
01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:39,559
Speaker 2: three four pitches per video. It's impressive to me at

1824
01:39:39,560 --> 01:39:40,960
Speaker 2: this age for a guy to do what he's doing.

1825
01:39:41,000 --> 01:39:45,040
Speaker 2: So Paris here. I think he definitely has a while

1826
01:39:45,120 --> 01:39:47,679
Speaker 2: to go. But it's the last pick in your draft.

1827
01:39:47,720 --> 01:39:47,960
Speaker 4: DELI.

1828
01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:50,640
Speaker 2: I think this kid seventeen eighteen, whatever he may be,

1829
01:39:51,320 --> 01:39:55,200
Speaker 2: you know, it doesn't matter. He's definitely here to make

1830
01:39:55,240 --> 01:39:57,760
Speaker 2: an impression he already has. I think he's gonna be good,

1831
01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:00,559
Speaker 2: and I think he's gonna be challenging for rotation spots

1832
01:40:00,600 --> 01:40:01,200
Speaker 2: on day for the Marlin.

1833
01:40:01,280 --> 01:40:02,000
Speaker 4: So yeah, Paris for.

1834
01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:07,240
Speaker 3: Me here, if we if we assume just for for

1835
01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:12,560
Speaker 3: exercise that so, you know, for for front end guys

1836
01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:16,160
Speaker 3: like I don't know, like Gary Cooper, you know you

1837
01:40:16,280 --> 01:40:19,400
Speaker 3: get him, and then the last four three years are

1838
01:40:19,479 --> 01:40:23,800
Speaker 3: replacement players. And then for back end guys like a

1839
01:40:23,880 --> 01:40:27,000
Speaker 3: Narity vett Is, you know, it's replacement players until they're

1840
01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:30,800
Speaker 3: ready and during those ten years and then you know

1841
01:40:31,200 --> 01:40:34,559
Speaker 3: they'll finish it out. Alex's team is going to be

1842
01:40:34,640 --> 01:40:37,880
Speaker 3: really bad in those first three years, but then he's

1843
01:40:37,920 --> 01:40:42,280
Speaker 3: gonna kick our butts. I mean, I think it's all

1844
01:40:42,320 --> 01:40:44,200
Speaker 3: prospects except Brinson.

1845
01:40:46,240 --> 01:40:49,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's his team is the team right now,

1846
01:40:49,680 --> 01:40:53,040
Speaker 1: we'll do quick breakdowns of these his team for Alex Garver,

1847
01:40:53,200 --> 01:40:57,479
Speaker 1: his team, jas chisholm at shortstop, right hander Max Meyer,

1848
01:40:57,680 --> 01:41:02,400
Speaker 1: left hander Daxon Fulton, catcher Will Banfield, outfielder Payden Verdict,

1849
01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:06,839
Speaker 1: outfielder Griffin co Nine, third baseman Hose Salas, first baseman

1850
01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:11,640
Speaker 1: Nick Ready, outfielder Victor Victor Mesa, second baseman Ian Lewis

1851
01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:15,959
Speaker 1: d h Lewis Brinson in his wild card Yarry Perez.

1852
01:41:16,479 --> 01:41:19,680
Speaker 1: Where really only two of those guys realistically would be

1853
01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:23,479
Speaker 1: on a major league opening day roster, Brinson and maybe Jazz,

1854
01:41:23,720 --> 01:41:28,720
Speaker 1: And even that's kind of debatable, but you're right. You

1855
01:41:28,800 --> 01:41:31,760
Speaker 1: fast forward a couple of years and one of the

1856
01:41:31,760 --> 01:41:34,160
Speaker 1: best teams that money can buy, and of course it

1857
01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:36,160
Speaker 1: wouldn't need much money to buy it, because it'd all

1858
01:41:36,160 --> 01:41:39,759
Speaker 1: be like rookies or in their second year that it's

1859
01:41:39,560 --> 01:41:42,360
Speaker 1: a but he's putting a lot of faith in their

1860
01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:45,400
Speaker 1: potential and their tools and their work ethic, and in

1861
01:41:45,400 --> 01:41:50,120
Speaker 1: in either the Marlins organization or his fictitious player developments

1862
01:41:50,320 --> 01:41:52,960
Speaker 1: system in on Team Alex that would get the most

1863
01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:56,400
Speaker 1: add these guys and get them hungry to keep getting

1864
01:41:56,439 --> 01:41:59,000
Speaker 1: better and better. With Team Daniel, he let off with

1865
01:41:59,120 --> 01:42:02,639
Speaker 1: right hander six Though Sanchez, first baseman Laywan Diaz, left

1866
01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:07,000
Speaker 1: handed Trevor Rodgers catcher, Jorge al Fara, outfielder, Monte Harrison,

1867
01:42:07,200 --> 01:42:12,240
Speaker 1: second basement, Isan Diez, outfielder Cameron Meisner, shortstop Nasin Nunez,

1868
01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:18,000
Speaker 1: outfielder Connor Scott, third basement Osius Johnson, d h Harold Ramirez,

1869
01:42:18,280 --> 01:42:22,000
Speaker 1: and wild card Edward Cabrera. And it's it's a little

1870
01:42:22,000 --> 01:42:23,840
Speaker 1: bit of both. Where you went with a couple guys

1871
01:42:23,840 --> 01:42:26,759
Speaker 1: that have short minor league track records, a lot of

1872
01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:29,519
Speaker 1: those that are one or two years into their major

1873
01:42:29,600 --> 01:42:32,360
Speaker 1: league careers. And I mean with those two pitchers with

1874
01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:34,720
Speaker 1: six to OHO, with six to oho as a right

1875
01:42:34,720 --> 01:42:37,160
Speaker 1: hander in the wild card with Eddie Cabrera, I mean,

1876
01:42:37,320 --> 01:42:40,639
Speaker 1: it's impossible to get any two pitchers with better pure

1877
01:42:40,640 --> 01:42:45,840
Speaker 1: stuff and better upside than those two guys. So I mean, yeah,

1878
01:42:45,920 --> 01:42:48,920
Speaker 1: that's another one that they stay healthy and they carry

1879
01:42:48,960 --> 01:42:50,760
Speaker 1: you as far as you could ever want to go.

1880
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:54,559
Speaker 1: With Team Eli let off at the first overall pick,

1881
01:42:54,840 --> 01:42:58,280
Speaker 1: outfielder jj Blday and then from their third baseman Brian

1882
01:42:58,360 --> 01:43:04,920
Speaker 1: Anderson hashtag pay DA, first baseman Garrett Cooper, outfielder Jesus Sanchez,

1883
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:10,679
Speaker 1: right hander Sandy al Contara al Contra, second baseman John Birdie,

1884
01:43:10,680 --> 01:43:15,639
Speaker 1: outfielder jer Ryer and Carnacian shortstop Osse Devers, wild card

1885
01:43:15,680 --> 01:43:21,000
Speaker 1: Pablo Lopez, left hander Braxton Garrett, DH Corey Dickerson, and

1886
01:43:21,080 --> 01:43:26,040
Speaker 1: my catcher Dad and last Chad Wallach. And I think

1887
01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:28,240
Speaker 1: my team is the oldest of all these of a

1888
01:43:28,240 --> 01:43:31,000
Speaker 1: couple of guys that are already in their thirties and

1889
01:43:31,720 --> 01:43:34,760
Speaker 1: a couple that you worry about aging because of their

1890
01:43:34,800 --> 01:43:39,920
Speaker 1: particular skill sets. That yeah, I'm just banking. As you said,

1891
01:43:40,160 --> 01:43:43,439
Speaker 1: it's total opposite. If you combine my team and Alex's

1892
01:43:43,439 --> 01:43:45,920
Speaker 1: team twenty four guys, if you squeezed all those guys

1893
01:43:45,960 --> 01:43:50,760
Speaker 1: onto one real life active roster, then you get the

1894
01:43:50,800 --> 01:43:51,559
Speaker 1: best of everything.

1895
01:43:51,680 --> 01:43:54,280
Speaker 2: But to me here and I'm looking at that, I

1896
01:43:54,280 --> 01:43:56,759
Speaker 2: hope you publish this chart for Fish ripes Lie because

1897
01:43:57,240 --> 01:44:01,400
Speaker 2: it's like a perfect symmetry from me. It's the team

1898
01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:04,760
Speaker 2: Eli with the elder squad here, you know other than

1899
01:44:04,800 --> 01:44:08,920
Speaker 2: Blade obviously, and a couple others are Braxton on your team,

1900
01:44:09,160 --> 01:44:13,559
Speaker 2: but obviously the elder squad here for Eli, Daniel's got

1901
01:44:13,600 --> 01:44:15,080
Speaker 2: like the mix of both, kind of the best of

1902
01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:16,880
Speaker 2: both worlds. He's got a little bit of both here.

1903
01:44:16,880 --> 01:44:18,800
Speaker 2: He's got guys that have made their debuts and some

1904
01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:21,479
Speaker 2: guys that are further away. Plus he throwing Harold, who

1905
01:44:21,479 --> 01:44:24,280
Speaker 2: obviously has been here. And then for me, I'm just

1906
01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:26,800
Speaker 2: like as far on the farm as you could possibly be.

1907
01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:29,680
Speaker 2: So it's kind of a funny symmetry the way it

1908
01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:31,880
Speaker 2: shook out, especially with the draft order being what it

1909
01:44:32,000 --> 01:44:34,880
Speaker 2: was and my stupid guests as far as your trivia question,

1910
01:44:34,960 --> 01:44:38,160
Speaker 2: but that's okay with film.

1911
01:44:38,720 --> 01:44:40,439
Speaker 4: I think it's really funny how that shook out.

1912
01:44:40,520 --> 01:44:43,400
Speaker 2: How like, you know, you who spend most of your time,

1913
01:44:43,560 --> 01:44:45,439
Speaker 2: you know, covering what's happening in the majors, and then

1914
01:44:45,479 --> 01:44:47,559
Speaker 2: me and Daniel, who kind of go back and forth

1915
01:44:47,560 --> 01:44:48,639
Speaker 2: between the farm and the majors.

1916
01:44:48,640 --> 01:44:50,240
Speaker 4: You know, It's it's kind of funny how it shook out.

1917
01:44:50,280 --> 01:44:54,479
Speaker 1: So just pointing it out IRUs me just a quick word.

1918
01:44:54,720 --> 01:44:57,759
Speaker 1: I tried, man, I tried to like take more risks

1919
01:44:57,840 --> 01:45:00,320
Speaker 1: with these prospects. I love a couple guy that are

1920
01:45:00,360 --> 01:45:04,160
Speaker 1: still multiple years away. But yeah, I just yeah, I

1921
01:45:04,840 --> 01:45:08,000
Speaker 1: just put a lot of stock into what we've seen

1922
01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:11,360
Speaker 1: already at the major league level. Even though this farm

1923
01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:13,559
Speaker 1: system is great. You love the depth that this farm

1924
01:45:13,640 --> 01:45:17,760
Speaker 1: system has, but so few like really sure things in

1925
01:45:17,800 --> 01:45:20,519
Speaker 1: my opinion, so few guys that don't really know, and

1926
01:45:20,720 --> 01:45:22,559
Speaker 1: that my first pick is the one guy that I

1927
01:45:22,840 --> 01:45:26,600
Speaker 1: really of all the prospects with JJ Bildet, he's the

1928
01:45:26,600 --> 01:45:30,600
Speaker 1: one that I'm most confident in just checking all the

1929
01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:33,080
Speaker 1: boxes and building up for a ten year frame. And

1930
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:37,000
Speaker 1: with everybody else, I tried, I tried to have that

1931
01:45:37,200 --> 01:45:40,840
Speaker 1: unconditional faith in them, and uh, I you know, I

1932
01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:43,640
Speaker 1: didn't push myself out of the comfort zone enough. But

1933
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:47,200
Speaker 1: the fun thing about this exercise is that it's repeatable.

1934
01:45:47,280 --> 01:45:49,400
Speaker 1: This is something that I told you I played four

1935
01:45:49,439 --> 01:45:53,360
Speaker 1: months ago, and I think heading into opening next year,

1936
01:45:53,920 --> 01:45:57,400
Speaker 1: our opinions on these guys they changed so quickly, whether

1937
01:45:57,439 --> 01:46:00,080
Speaker 1: it's because of injury or whether it's just because of

1938
01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:03,640
Speaker 1: a particular hot streak or cold streak that they have,

1939
01:46:04,200 --> 01:46:08,599
Speaker 1: that it's constantly evolving. And that's why, even when there

1940
01:46:08,600 --> 01:46:10,920
Speaker 1: are no games to be played, you weren't following them

1941
01:46:11,040 --> 01:46:16,320
Speaker 1: on Instagram or we're just checking in. We're just reading

1942
01:46:16,479 --> 01:46:18,799
Speaker 1: any of the findings that we can find online from

1943
01:46:19,040 --> 01:46:22,800
Speaker 1: other evaluators that are in there in person, just to

1944
01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:25,200
Speaker 1: try to influence our thinking. And the reality is is

1945
01:46:25,200 --> 01:46:28,280
Speaker 1: that little things can change us, can put us onto

1946
01:46:28,360 --> 01:46:29,639
Speaker 1: player or take us off of him.

1947
01:46:30,240 --> 01:46:32,680
Speaker 2: And I think I can speak for all three of

1948
01:46:32,760 --> 01:46:34,920
Speaker 2: us here when I'll say that it's been so hard

1949
01:46:34,920 --> 01:46:38,240
Speaker 2: to scout players minor league players this year, like other

1950
01:46:38,320 --> 01:46:40,479
Speaker 2: than like the couple reports we heard out of instructs

1951
01:46:40,479 --> 01:46:42,479
Speaker 2: and obviously the videos that we see and everything. Obviously

1952
01:46:42,520 --> 01:46:44,200
Speaker 2: we're going to put a little stock into that because

1953
01:46:44,200 --> 01:46:46,559
Speaker 2: that's what we're seeing, right. But I think next year,

1954
01:46:46,600 --> 01:46:49,000
Speaker 2: when the minor league season does get back going wherever

1955
01:46:49,040 --> 01:46:51,839
Speaker 2: the affiliates may wind up, who knows what's gonna happen there.

1956
01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:55,560
Speaker 4: I think we'll definitely see exactly who's who in this

1957
01:46:55,640 --> 01:46:57,800
Speaker 4: Marlins minor league system. So excited for that.

1958
01:46:58,880 --> 01:47:00,559
Speaker 3: By the way, as the finmily for me, I have

1959
01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:04,479
Speaker 3: to give you props, Eli, because didn't miss a single

1960
01:47:04,640 --> 01:47:09,320
Speaker 3: till day accent. That's I mean, wow.

1961
01:47:11,160 --> 01:47:13,439
Speaker 1: I'm still cleaning up a few of them with UH

1962
01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:16,240
Speaker 1: and we'll see the final product, the final product we'll

1963
01:47:16,280 --> 01:47:19,360
Speaker 1: have all of the annunciation. I take a lot of

1964
01:47:19,400 --> 01:47:21,800
Speaker 1: pride in that as someone that runs a website, and

1965
01:47:21,840 --> 01:47:24,080
Speaker 1: even when I'm just putting together a tweet, I want

1966
01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:27,960
Speaker 1: to get these guys' names right because this organization is

1967
01:47:28,000 --> 01:47:32,439
Speaker 1: a very such a heavy presence of Latin American players

1968
01:47:32,439 --> 01:47:36,040
Speaker 1: that especially are their key players as well, that you

1969
01:47:36,080 --> 01:47:40,040
Speaker 1: want to pay respect to what their actual names are.

1970
01:47:40,160 --> 01:47:43,360
Speaker 1: And so the everybody, whether you're following us on social

1971
01:47:43,400 --> 01:47:46,280
Speaker 1: media at Fish Strips on Twitter and Instagram, or even

1972
01:47:46,320 --> 01:47:49,200
Speaker 1: on Facebook, whether you see this on our website fishtrips

1973
01:47:49,200 --> 01:47:52,040
Speaker 1: dot com, you're going to see our final draft board

1974
01:47:52,160 --> 01:47:55,120
Speaker 1: and where we picked, and we want to hear from

1975
01:47:55,160 --> 01:47:58,000
Speaker 1: you which team do you prefer? Who did best? Was

1976
01:47:58,040 --> 01:48:01,679
Speaker 1: it Alex Carver, was it Daniel Deviv Was it Eli Sessman.

1977
01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:04,280
Speaker 1: We're going to have polls there to actually gauge the

1978
01:48:04,320 --> 01:48:07,960
Speaker 1: results to see who you thought did the best because

1979
01:48:07,960 --> 01:48:11,080
Speaker 1: there were so much talent to choose from. Frankly, I

1980
01:48:11,120 --> 01:48:13,320
Speaker 1: think we all did well. I don't think I think

1981
01:48:13,320 --> 01:48:16,040
Speaker 1: we can all feel confident in our own ways. The

1982
01:48:16,040 --> 01:48:18,360
Speaker 1: way that these teams came together, so there really are

1983
01:48:18,439 --> 01:48:23,320
Speaker 1: no true losers and winners. But we want there to

1984
01:48:24,000 --> 01:48:26,519
Speaker 1: want the people to decide who they think one at
