1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: We'll recap it all talk about what happened in the

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 1: week to come. So got the second sweep of the

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: season earlier this week against the Washington Nationals to the

4
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: Marlins just own at this point, but that was a

5
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: really well hard bought series for the Marlins. Two games

6
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: in that series came by just one run. Just seems

7
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: to be the theme so far this year. Another by

8
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: two runs, all really close hart bought games against, with

9
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: three of them through Miami's younger starters starting all the

10
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 1: games in that series, including Yardy Perez. We're all series

11
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: come back whin the walk off on Tuesday, the first

12
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: game of that series from Jorge Solaire. The Marlins could

13
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: have usually lost all three of those games, but they

14
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: found the way to win all of them, and it

15
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:46,919
Speaker 1: feels like it's been the themes so far this year.

16
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: The Marlins are finding themselves in games they shouldn't be

17
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 1: in and just continue to find ways to win. It

18
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: feels like eli.

19
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: Way more often than that they're winning those close games.

20
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: Thank you everybody for joining us tonight leading up to

21
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 2: another big Miami sporting event later tonight in the Miami Heat.

22
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: But with this team, they yeah for the most part

23
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,759
Speaker 2: a lot of these close games, the one run record

24
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: is a little deceiving because there are close games that

25
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: ultimately ends with a multiple run deficit like today's. Today's

26
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 2: game was back and forth, it was tied for several

27
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 2: weddings leading to leading up to Lazardo's final bit of it,

28
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 2: and they ended up losing it by two runs. So,

29
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 2: just as an example, one reason why, even though they've

30
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 2: been dominating one run games, some of the games that

31
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 2: are also close in doubt towards the end, they ends

32
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 2: up like losing a grip of the rope, and the

33
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: final score sometimes doesn't totally reflect that. All things considered,

34
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 2: you can't complain too much the fact that they were

35
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 2: able to sweep the series that they did against both

36
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: the Nationals and Giants. They're coming from very different sets

37
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 2: of expectations this year, and they have a lot of

38
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 2: obvious differences. All things considered, they're pretty similar opponents in

39
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 2: my opinion, in terms of quality of teams. You'd like

40
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: to win series against both of them, but to have

41
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 2: a winning well, let's see, to have a five hundred

42
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 2: week against those two opponents is fine. It's fine, especially

43
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: considering exactly what we were talking about a week ago.

44
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: A week ago we were lamenting all the key players

45
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 2: that are dropping out due to injury. So they are

46
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 2: at this moment they have as many injuries as if

47
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: had at any point this year, and for them to

48
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: continue to be performing in winning games at approximately the

49
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 2: same rate. That consistency, even with a changing cast of characters,

50
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 2: is really encouraging.

51
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: And we brought up one of those guys who have

52
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: been hitting the right time. The bullpens obviously stepped up

53
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: in a lot of key spots, but there's been a

54
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 1: discussion about a particular player this week during one of

55
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: his hot streaks and if he is a streaky player

56
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: and not Brian Dalea Cruz in the middle of another

57
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: scorching hot streak for the Marlins, did he get a

58
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: hit today or no, it is a hit streak.

59
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: Over, it's over, it's over, it's over.

60
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he was on a fourteen game hit streak.

61
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: Pretty impressive all things considered. And I think Alex Krutcher

62
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 1: put out a tweet earlier this week that Brian Dala

63
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: Cruz just stretches so far this year, first twenty games,

64
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: he was on absolute fire. Uh that Cleveland series he

65
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: played absolutely amazing, just played like a minor leaguer for

66
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: the next week or two after that. Now he's back

67
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: on the upswing again, and we've kind of seen it

68
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: over his major league career. Brian Dyla Cruz, all things considered,

69
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 1: has been a streaky player so far. But the bigger

70
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: question is now that he is at a point in

71
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: his major league career where he's going on year three

72
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: of service time now or he's getting there. At least

73
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: he has to. He has something to prove the as

74
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 1: a big leaguer, as portation will be coming up in

75
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: future you for him has to prove whether he belongs

76
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,839
Speaker 1: or not. So this is a really big year for him,

77
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: and one that I felt like a year I feel

78
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: like a lot of people didn't really think too much

79
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: of this is just being very very important for him.

80
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: But he's playing very good baseball right now, and the

81
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: whole outfield right now has seemingly stepped up in big

82
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: spots of healthy outfield, I should say. Jorge Solaire Skip

83
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: said in that interview, you guys heard at the top

84
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,799
Speaker 1: of the shelf hitting home runs every single time Wizarta

85
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: has been out there, it seems. But there are certain

86
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: guys that are stepping up in big moments right now.

87
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: Some other guys that have been disappointing. Nick fork Tes

88
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 1: is on the upswing, but it's kind of been a

89
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 1: next man up mentality so far this year. A little bit.

90
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, on del La Cruz, I need to give him

91
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 2: some props as straightening it out. It really didn't seem

92
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: that far fetched a few weeks ago that they might

93
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 2: be in a position to send him down to Triple A,

94
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 2: just because how severely he was struggling just to put

95
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 2: balls in play for a while there, and you look

96
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 2: up and all things considered, yeah, he's been a slightly

97
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: above average hitter this year while playing just about every

98
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 2: single day. So he's facing a lot of righties in

99
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 2: addition to lefties, and he's still producing. And he's producing

100
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: for all the limitations and the inconsistencies he does have.

101
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 2: There are some fundamental things about his game I wish

102
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: would improve, But all things considered, he's been a key

103
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 2: piece of this line up, especially at this particular moment.

104
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 2: He had what that long hitting streak that fourteen gamer

105
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 2: and it's hard to face.

106
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: That two separate streak. So far he had nine and

107
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 1: a fourteen and coming into this season nine was his

108
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 1: career long, right, So what kind of guy overshadowed? But

109
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: this lasting streak is he shattered his own personal record.

110
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: But that fourteen gamer, which kind of went unnoticed until

111
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: the last part of it. All of a sudden, you

112
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: blink your eyes, You're like, oh, I know, Churis is

113
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:57,679
Speaker 1: a fourteen game. PA hisstory. It was one of longer

114
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: ones in baseball all year. I don't know what the

115
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: long what this year is, but it's up there.

116
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 2: It wasn't that long ago when they called it Peyton Burdick.

117
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 2: It was I was kind of the opinion that Burdick

118
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 2: would surpass De la Cruz for a role on this team,

119
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 2: and the early returns on that are not are not great. Yeah,

120
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 2: on the other end, we'll call for him to get.

121
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: Sent down today. That's the first I've seen that I

122
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: had hope for him. But the way the injuries are

123
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: in this team right now, it seems that we'll see

124
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 1: Peytonbury for at least a couple more weeks if that,

125
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: because we we haven't had a ton of updates on

126
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: I would say Garcia, he's rehabing. Jesus Sanchez is expecting

127
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 1: to probably be out at least like a month or so.

128
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 1: I would guess maybe three weeks like at best, because

129
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: this is a root injury where he's gonna have to

130
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: rehab and he would presumably go to Jacksonville, Jupiter or whatever.

131
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 1: Right but it's getting thin right now, Jazz being out

132
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: to Celaire and Dala Cruz are going to be your

133
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: main stays in the outfield, and then they're gonna rotate

134
00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: in hampsen Verdick Edwards in center field, the guys that

135
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: they're just trying to throw out the wall and see

136
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 1: they'll stick right now.

137
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's part of it. The other part of it

138
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 2: is the reality that you need to balance trying to

139
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 2: win right now and also look out for your future.

140
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 2: With Burdick, they've had them in their system for four years,

141
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 2: and with Edwards they made a trade to get him

142
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 2: this past off season for a specific reason, because they

143
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 2: see these guys as if everything goes right with them

144
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 2: actually being long term pieces of the position player corps,

145
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 2: even if they're not, Even if they're just role players

146
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 2: and nothing close to every day starters on a team,

147
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: it's important to find out what you have in these guys.

148
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: For both of them, they were performing really well in

149
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 2: Triple A. After spending last year in Triple A. They

150
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 2: have nothing left to prove down there, and the way

151
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 2: that the injuries have piled up, these this opportunities here,

152
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 2: and it makes sense to give them that long leash

153
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 2: to show what they got. So, as you alluded to,

154
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 2: it's probably multiple weeks more until you even have to

155
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: consider making a decision on one of those rookies between

156
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: Edwards and Burdick going down. And in this tiny sample,

157
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 2: you'd think that Edwards says the inside track even with Burdick,

158
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 2: like not just offensively we're striking out in half of

159
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 2: his plate appearances, but also defensively, like today there was

160
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 2: that double and deep center field that I think he

161
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 2: made it look a lot more difficult than it actually was,

162
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 2: a ball that got over his head that that may

163
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 2: have been catchable. I noticed that there was. Yeah, the

164
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 2: one really unfortunate play happened in Wrigley where he lost

165
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 2: the ball in the sun, and that proved to be

166
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 2: a pretty crucial mistake. Even outside of that, it's yeah,

167
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 2: it's been a bit of a bummer with him where

168
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 2: it's been a few extra base hits and just not

169
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 2: a whole lot of other redeeming qualities. This is exactly

170
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: the startch of the season where you find out what

171
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 2: you have with them, and you hope you get enough

172
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: that there's still enough healthy veteran bodies between so Layer

173
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: and A Rise. And if you want to put De

174
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 2: la Cruz in the veteran bucket for the time being,

175
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: I wouldn't blame you, because compared to the rest of

176
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 2: the guys, Yeah, he's been around a while.

177
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 1: It's safe to say he's going to stay up at

178
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: this ray. We were calling for him to maybe go

179
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: down at some point because he's the only one who

180
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: had the option. But it's safe to say he will

181
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: probably stay on the major league per entire season. Yes,

182
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: unless he has a cool streak like a month long.

183
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 2: Yes. And it's been clarified with so Laire that he'll

184
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 2: play the outfield occasionally, like this week he played it twice,

185
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 2: and that in itself was kind of notable because that's

186
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 2: I think that's that matches a season high. I don't

187
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: think he's ever played the outfield more than two games

188
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 2: a week at any point this season. It's a really

189
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: sporadic thing, which means if he's going to be the

190
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 2: DH for the vast majority of games, then you have

191
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 2: a lot of outfield playing time available, and it's good

192
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 2: that it's good to just evaluate what do you have

193
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 2: in these young players in the meantime.

194
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I couldn't agree more so. We kind of touched

195
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: on the San Francisco series a little bit. We've already

196
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: had National Series on the head. It was a good sweep,

197
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: second sweep of the year, this one, this pointing weekend

198
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: series in San Francisco on the Bay this weekend where

199
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: both losses came at the hands of Miami's two best pitchers,

200
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: just kind of having some out of the ordinary games

201
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: for them. Although this is starting to becomes Sandy's new

202
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 1: normal so far this season, at least this is there

203
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,199
Speaker 1: is some slight concern, I would say at this point

204
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: with the way he started, but his pitch counts stayed well.

205
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: Friday just found himself in a couple of mishaps. But

206
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: it's surprising to see that so far from him that

207
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: I wouldn't believe it's fixable. But I struggle to pinpoint

208
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 1: what the problem actually is for him right now.

209
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are a lot of smart people that are

210
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 2: trying to pinpoint the problem and also unsuccessful in pinpointing it.

211
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 2: I don't think there is one particular thing. It's just

212
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 2: that five thousand. Yeah, it's just a difference of last

213
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 2: year kind of setting the highest possible standard, and realistically

214
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 2: he was never going to be able to repeat that.

215
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: At the same time, there's it's still early on and

216
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 2: there's just been a lot of tough luck that he's getting.

217
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 2: He's doing a lot of the same things as last year,

218
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 2: and his stuff is measuring out in a lot of

219
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 2: the same ways as it was last year. But yeah,

220
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 2: maybe not quite finishing his pitches the same way in

221
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 2: order to get the ball on the ground. And that's

222
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 2: kind of the main thing that I've seen is just

223
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 2: you know, a lot more line drives than last year,

224
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 2: and those line drives are going to turn into hits

225
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 2: more often than the typical ground balls will, so that especially.

226
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: When the defense behind him is not that great.

227
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 2: Right, that was the big concern entry in the years,

228
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 2: the quality of defense just from washing games, and like

229
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 2: this past game in particular, I can't say that that

230
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 2: his defense specifically cost him other than his own personal defense, right,

231
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 2: I think in this game when we try to remember

232
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 2: exactly what play was that he himself kind of contributed

233
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 2: to his own issue with a throwing error on it. Yeah,

234
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,080
Speaker 2: there was was a soft ground ball that. Yeah, it

235
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: was a makeup actually, if I remember, yeah, it was

236
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 2: a play that it was a ball that he should

237
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 2: just let go. It was the one where it was

238
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 2: just a really well placed ground ball. There wasn't going

239
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 2: to be a realistic chance to game at first base,

240
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 2: and it cost himself a couple extra bases and it

241
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 2: hidens the intensity in the moment. This was in the

242
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 2: bottom of the sixth ending when he had a lead

243
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 2: to work with. That's the dispiriting part is now we've

244
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 2: had back to back starts where he's had a lead,

245
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: and we've seen the leads slip away out of his control.

246
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 1: They're starting he's starting to get a little more predictable,

247
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: because there's been a few starts this year where he's

248
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: just firing right away the first few innings. First time

249
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: through the line of it, he had like four strikeouts

250
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: through first two innings. I think on Friday, maybe it

251
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 1: was first three, but he was working well and he

252
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 1: was carrying a no hitter into the third or fourth

253
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: I can't remember when he lost it, but the ending

254
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,559
Speaker 1: he did lose it, he gave.

255
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 2: Up runs, right, So it's a it's a combination of

256
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 2: things that are adding up where there's not really one

257
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 2: particular game aside from ever since the Phillies game, really

258
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 2: early in the year, there hasn't been any terrible starts,

259
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 2: just all these ones that are obviously far below his standard,

260
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 2: and then more often than nothing come apart later in

261
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 2: the game even when he looks pretty good early on.

262
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 2: That's what made him so special last year is that

263
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 2: there was no drop off later in games. If he

264
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 2: was able to be efficient enough to get the ball

265
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 2: into the seventh or the eighth or the ninth, then

266
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,199
Speaker 2: he would just keep going what he had been doing

267
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 2: earlier in that year.

268
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a very good closure. He works well on

269
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,920
Speaker 1: those high momentum situations. I feel like high pressure, right,

270
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: but a hot topic off season really, but one I'm

271
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: starting to see more and more of it is I

272
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: think a lot of fans are hitting their breaking point,

273
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: maybe even the team themselves. As Jacob s songs, how

274
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: much do you think he's played into Sandy's struggles even

275
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: though he's having his own struggles at the plate. He's

276
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 1: been the motive to once maybe twice a week, catcher.

277
00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,439
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on just anything Jacob Stallings right now?

278
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 2: I have a lot of thoughts. I'm going to record

279
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,719
Speaker 2: an entire separate podcast about Jacob Stallings that you can

280
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 2: find on our fish on first Feed and on fish

281
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 2: drips dot com. That is the big topic. We've reached

282
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 2: a point where it's just obvious that he is not

283
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 2: going to be the player that they acquired in the

284
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 2: first place a year and a half ago, where at

285
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 2: the very least I thought he'd be a starting gall

286
00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 2: of or catcher. Overall, he's just about as bad as

287
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 2: any player in baseball since they've gotten him, because of

288
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 2: his limitations as a hitter, his limitations as a base runner,

289
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 2: and most disappointing, you know, his limitations defensively, where he

290
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 2: is just not really checking any of the boxes you

291
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 2: want from that part of the game. Last year he

292
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 2: got a little bit of credit intangibly for, you know,

293
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 2: catching every moment of Sandy cy young season. It's still

294
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 2: the same pair of players, and as we touched on,

295
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: Sandy still looks the same as he did before, and

296
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 2: yet the results are a lot different, which makes you

297
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 2: just realize that maybe, yeah, there's nothing magical about that

298
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 2: particular battery. And in fact, I think almost the opposite

299
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 2: that immediately I would like to see Fortes catching Sandy

300
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: instead of Stallings, not just for the defensive stuff, but

301
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 2: for most obviously the offensive side of it, where nothing

302
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 2: good is going to happen with Stallings. Even when Sandy

303
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 2: has had the lead in a few of his starts,

304
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 2: it's not a substantial lead. It's like it's the thinnest

305
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: possible lead because of how limited your lineup is going

306
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 2: to be when Stallings is in it, and it makes

307
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 2: everybody's life a lot easier when you have a larger

308
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 2: lead to work with that it tones down. It changes

309
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 2: the decision making of the pitcher if they realize, especially

310
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 2: for somebody like Sandy who gets quite a bit of

311
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,360
Speaker 2: balls in play, it gives it some margin for error

312
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: to work with, and that like opens up a lot

313
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 2: of possibilities for the pitch selection that you can use

314
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: at a particular time. There's just there's really no way

315
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 2: to sugarcoat it that he's Stallings has been terrible, even

316
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 2: compared to where he was last year. He's the worst

317
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 2: player on the team for sure, and if this team

318
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 2: had an obvious next man up at the catcher position

319
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 2: in the organization, then you would really start talking about

320
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: Stalling's job being in jeopardy. But that, thankfully for Stallings,

321
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 2: that's not the case at this very moment. But they

322
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 2: need to continue to lean into a different playing time

323
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 2: mix here and mix Stallings the clear backup and to

324
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 2: sever that connection that he had with Sandy. They should

325
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 2: not be tied at the hip the way that they

326
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 2: have been. There's really no at this point, especially this

327
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: deep into the year and what we've seen, there's just

328
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: unless Sandy himself is demanding it, which he never has

329
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,680
Speaker 2: to the best of my knowledge, then you need to

330
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,399
Speaker 2: do what's best for the team and you need to

331
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 2: play your better players more often.

332
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, agreed, and we touched on it a lot last

333
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: We spent a lot of time last week on it.

334
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 1: But catching position is just a very, very bad top

335
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: to bottom in the organization. There are no true options.

336
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 1: The only minor leaguer you would even give a thought

337
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: of calling up Paul McIntosh. He's hurt right now, so

338
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: that's not even an option. You just have to roll

339
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 1: with the punches. I mean, the catching position right now

340
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: in baseball, it's kind of been a bad spot. There

341
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 1: really aren't a lot of dominant ones. Ad Lea's fun

342
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: to watch at row, Muto is always good, Sean Murphy's

343
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: been incredible for the Braves. And just a reminder that

344
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: Marlins were rumored to be in trade talks with him

345
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: and the Athletics his past offseason, and that would have

346
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:53,120
Speaker 1: solved many, many, many problems. But besides the point, Marlin's

347
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 1: catching positions just terrible right now in every facet and

348
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 1: there's no true way to really fix it. And and

349
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 1: I'm sure we'll get a lot of questions about trades,

350
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: so won't touch on it too much, but there really

351
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,439
Speaker 1: isn't a lot the offer up to go Chiir And

352
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: we had this discussion privately this week, well amongst the

353
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 1: Pitch Tripes members. Would you even trade a picture for

354
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: another hitter at this point, whether it be a prospect

355
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: for prospects swap or a major league type deal to

356
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 1: Marl just can't really afford the trade any pictures right

357
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: now because depth is not great with all the injuries

358
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: they're having. They've just hit a really bad stretch of

359
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 1: injury luck right now, where if you lose one of

360
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: the five current starters right now, I don't even know

361
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: who you make the fifth guy in the rotation. Let's

362
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: say Braxton Garrett goes down and you're stuck with Sandy Lozardo,

363
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:53,920
Speaker 1: Eddie and Yuri and you still got Quato and whoever

364
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: Trevor Rodgers a few weeks away at least, what do

365
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 1: you even make the fifth spot guy? So you can't

366
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: really do that either. So the Marlsers sent a tough

367
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: spot where they're gonna have to find a way that

368
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: there's a win with what they got it. It feels

369
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: like at this point.

370
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 2: It fits in the same vein as what we mentioned

371
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,719
Speaker 2: with Burdick and Edwards in terms of Nick Fortes and

372
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 2: this just being a pretty obvious opportunity to find out

373
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 2: exactly what you have in him. People got so excited

374
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 2: from his first couple months of last season, when he

375
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 2: looked like he was checking a lot of boxes you

376
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 2: look for in a starting catcher. He was very vaguely

377
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 2: resembling the kind of player that they once had in JT.

378
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 2: Real Muto. There was a lot of excitement about him,

379
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 2: and then he pretty quietly didn't play well the entire

380
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 2: second half of last year. He goes without saying that

381
00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 2: he's been to a disappointment this year. Had a home

382
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 2: run today and that was only his second home.

383
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 1: Marlin's catcher base hit since his first home run back

384
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: during the opening series.

385
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 2: First extra base it as soon, yeah, the.

386
00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 1: First extra base it I think of many catcher i'

387
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: stallings was double in.

388
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 2: There anywhere for somebody that it stunns me that for

389
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 2: somebody that has the skill that Fortes has that it

390
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 2: just hasn't shown up yet. This is an opportunity to

391
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 2: expand his playing time and find out before once you

392
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 2: get to trade season, you want to have a better

393
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 2: idea of exactly who Fortes is between even it's still

394
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 2: very early as bad as star as he got off

395
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,120
Speaker 2: to if you give him enough playing time the next

396
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 2: couple of months, I think a fair barometer is looking

397
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 2: at his numbers last year and once you get into

398
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 2: the second half of the season, do his numbers this

399
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 2: year are they basically on track for where they were

400
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty two. If so, then you begin looking

401
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 2: at him as yeah, maybe that is our starting caliber

402
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 2: catcher for beyond this year as well. Or at least

403
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 2: somebody that is worth carrying on this roster. Is one

404
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 2: of the top two guys. Yeah, yeah, because right now

405
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 2: there is a little bit of uncertainty about whether they

406
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 2: have even any of the one or to catcher on

407
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 2: their roster right now, you need to give Fortes is

408
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 2: the one that certainly has that potential at this point.

409
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 2: That's unfortunately. The point I'm trying to get home about

410
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 2: Stallings is despite what his track record is, there's no

411
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 2: indication that he's going to get back to what he was.

412
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 2: This is a position that can age pretty rapidly. Jacob

413
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 2: Stalling's thirty three years old. It looks like he is

414
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 2: just the clients and that there's no reasonable expectation to

415
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 2: expect him to come back from that. He is in

416
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 2: a year by year situation where he's in his arbitration years.

417
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 2: He's earning three something million this year, and I think

418
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 2: it's become obvious at this point that they're not going

419
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 2: to be bringing him back at a similar salary next year.

420
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 2: And that's the approach I'd like them to have, understanding

421
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 2: that ye have Fortes next year. You have a few

422
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 2: guys in this farm system that may get a chance

423
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 2: later in the year when Paul McIntosh is healthy. He's

424
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 2: not healthy at the moment. If Austin Allen, if he

425
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 2: keeps up his hot streaking triple a a little longer,

426
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 2: maybe you give him a shot. He's been he's further

427
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 2: along in his career, not somebody to be treated as

428
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 2: a prospector to get super excited about. They should be

429
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 2: approaching this as if Stallings is in his last year

430
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 2: with the team and they could try to make the

431
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 2: best of it with him. But that doesn't mean forcing

432
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 2: him into a role that he doesn't belong in. You

433
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 2: need to or just come to terms with the reality

434
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 2: of it is that if they're going to get respectful

435
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:23,160
Speaker 2: position production from their catcher position this year, the only

436
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 2: route to get there is by playing Fortes and hope

437
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 2: that he recaptures what he's shown at times prior to

438
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 2: this season.

439
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I couldn't agree more. I think it kind of

440
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: wraps up and puts a bow on this series. Disappointing

441
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: series that is. But that win on Saturday, very very

442
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: gutsy win. I wantah win. That a very Marlins esque

443
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,679
Speaker 1: when it feels like from last season at least kind

444
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 1: of carries over this year, but the show moves on

445
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: before we get to before we get the our listener

446
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,959
Speaker 1: questions will try and make it somewhat quick, so we've

447
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: got about a half hour to eat tip off, although

448
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: the way the NBA works, that could always be a

449
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: little bit longer. But anyways, we'll preview this week where

450
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: the road trip will finish out. It is a very

451
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 1: long road trip, but these West Coast road trips can

452
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 1: always be fun. They could also be detrimental to a

453
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 1: season sometimes. But go to corps Field tomorrow night for

454
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 1: a four game stretch. That Fish Stripes Live show should

455
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: be a pretty fun one. I'll be on my first

456
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 1: Fish Stripes Live shown a minute, but it will be

457
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 1: a fun one. That should be a fun series or

458
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: a Celaire will probably be a popular series. MVP pick

459
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: the way he's been hitting the ball right now, especially

460
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: in that yard. But I haven't checked the pitching matchups

461
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: yet in that series, but most rotation will go everyone

462
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 1: Butler Zardo will go in that series. But another good opportunity.

463
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: The Rockies are not a very good team. None of

464
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: the teams that the Marls had to play this series

465
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: are very good teams. Angels are probably the best of them,

466
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: but it's a big opportunity. And with what I just said,

467
00:23:55,920 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: they played the Angels for Memorial Day weekend. I'm not

468
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: sure if they're scheduled to face so Tani or not.

469
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 1: It will be interesting to see. But the Angels, they

470
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 1: are a very streaky team. So we'll just have to

471
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: wait and see what the Angels might look like once

472
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: that series comes. But I'm excited for this Rocky series.

473
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,119
Speaker 1: I think it's a big opportunity for the Marls to

474
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 1: get right and get back on track. I mean, their

475
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: game over five hundred, I'd say they're still playing pretty

476
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 1: good for their standards right now. But it's an opportunity

477
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 1: this entire stretch that we talked about this month constantly

478
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,639
Speaker 1: for the last few weeks, It's been an opportunity for

479
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: the team. I feel like, So you know, what are

480
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,159
Speaker 1: your thoughts real quick on just what's ahead just this

481
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: coming week.

482
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 2: The Rockies are very vulnerable right now. This is an

483
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 2: important series to take advantage of. You talk about the

484
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 2: Marlins injuries, the Rockies have plenty of them too, including

485
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 2: affecting two of their top three starters, Herman Marquez and

486
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 2: Antonio sends a tell of both of them very serious injuries. Marquez,

487
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 2: I know, in particular is Gonna. I think he just

488
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 2: underwent to Tommy John surgery. So they're pitching, which was

489
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 2: already extremely questionable entering this year, is now even more

490
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 2: so the one. The thing is, I'm sure Romeo was

491
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 2: very excited for the series as he gets to watch

492
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 2: a lot of Justin Lawrence. That is, that's probably the

493
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 2: best pitcher on the Rockies roster right now, Justin Lawrence,

494
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: who's an excellent reliever. And outside of that, they just

495
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 2: they don't have a lot there even offensively. When you

496
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 2: make the adjustment for course field, maybe their best overall

497
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 2: position player is their catcher Elias Diaz, and he's somebody

498
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 2: the I'm gonna bring.

499
00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 1: Up this is a team that Chris Bryant.

500
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 2: Is on, Yeah, because no, he's not at all, No

501
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 2: Chris Brian. He got off to a nice start, and

502
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 2: again you need to adjust for like the conditions of

503
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,439
Speaker 2: course field. Is that if he's putting up an ops

504
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: right around eight hundred with half of his games at

505
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 2: cores and he's just playing corner outfield spots, he's just

506
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 2: not a super notable player anymore. Unfortunately, really unfortunate for

507
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 2: the Rockies considering what they're paying him for the next

508
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 2: six years. But he's been a replacement level player. Chris Bryant.

509
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 2: We know that Brenton Rodgers. He had a nice year

510
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 2: last season and he got hurt very early on in

511
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 2: the preseason and he's not gonna step on the field

512
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 2: anytime soon. So they're a young team. They I guess

513
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,360
Speaker 2: c J. Cron is the big power threat that they

514
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 2: have in their team. You know, he's solid, and he

515
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: had a huge series against the Marlins probably last year.

516
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 2: It was that course, it was either last year or

517
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 2: the year before where he won. Actually right, that's what

518
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 2: I had in mind. I think you just put in

519
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 2: cartoon numbers against them during the course of a series

520
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 2: at course Field not that long ago. He's a key

521
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 2: player to watch. Overall, this is a really bad team.

522
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 2: We talked about the Nats as a team that I

523
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 2: think is better than their general perception, and the Rockies

524
00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 2: are not the case. I think they are just as

525
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 2: bad as the perception he is about them. This is

526
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 2: a series that ideally you didn't want to come into

527
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,199
Speaker 2: it with a slightly more rested bullpen. The bullpen is

528
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 2: decent shape for the Marlins, but you'd like to have

529
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 2: seen their starters go a little bit longer in this

530
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 2: giant series, just knowing that you need to go through

531
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 2: a lot of pitchers when you're in course. That's the

532
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,360
Speaker 2: one thing about it. Even as bad as the Rockies are,

533
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 2: the environment is such that you have to throw a

534
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 2: lot of pitches, a lot of runs are going to

535
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 2: be scored. You need to go through many different arms.

536
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 2: Ideally you'd like them to be a little bit more

537
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: well rested heading into this series. I still don't see

538
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 2: that as a very big excuse. This is an opportunity,

539
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,919
Speaker 2: This should be yet a They're going to be favored

540
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 2: to win this series. I think anything less than a

541
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 2: sweep is going to be immense disappointment. So then right

542
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 2: after that, I.

543
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: Think three or four is at least fair. I would

544
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,360
Speaker 1: be disappointed if it was a split. The Rockeys get

545
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 1: one game. It's a one game, but I mean a

546
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 1: sweet would be nice. He like three or four. It's

547
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: still okay. You get two games back and trying to

548
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,119
Speaker 1: get back into standings. But because they dropped one in

549
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,479
Speaker 1: San Francisco when that was a series we thought they

550
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: should win. I guess the sweep would probably.

551
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 2: Make up for it right after that. Flying back to

552
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 2: California next weekend to face the Angels, uh, the first

553
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 2: thing on everybody's mind. Yes, Otani is going to pitch

554
00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 2: in that series, and he's going to presumably hit in

555
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,040
Speaker 2: the other games of that series. He continues to be

556
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 2: pretty terrific over there. And their team is is it's

557
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 2: kind of similar to where it was at this time

558
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 2: last year when it looks like they might finally have

559
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 2: a serious contender. They're they're a little bit above five hundred. Yeah,

560
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 2: Mike Trout is playing below his immense standards so far

561
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 2: this year, and their their bullpen in the Angels. I

562
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 2: think it's start off the year really terribly, but they've

563
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 2: actually been very good lately to kind of get back

564
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 2: on track. Yeah, it's a it's a solid team. I

565
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 2: think the Angels are the best team that they play

566
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 2: on this road trip by just about every measure. They're

567
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 2: gonna put up some runs, but they're they're relying quite

568
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 2: a bit on young guys there every day, shortstop Zach Netto.

569
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 2: They have one of their catchers. Their catching position is

570
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 2: almost as thin as the Marlins are. Chad Wallach old

571
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 2: friends is on the Angels roster and getting quite a

572
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 2: bit of playing time. He'll started at least one of

573
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 2: the games as well. They're team that also has kind

574
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 2: of they're top heavy. Let's just say that with Otani

575
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 2: and Trout, they have a couple of role players off

576
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:23,240
Speaker 2: that are off to good starts, like Geo Orchela. He's

577
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 2: hitting three hundred, Hunter Renfro, He's driving in a lot

578
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 2: of runs. But they they're.

579
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 1: Disappointed by Brandon Durry so far this year. He got

580
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 1: signed that contract after having a pretty good first half

581
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: the reds Okay second half Padres, He's been a little

582
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: disappointing this year.

583
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 2: Though he's somebody that the Marlins are very interested in.

584
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 2: He ended up getting a contract that was almost identical

585
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 2: to Jeene Siguras. It is disappointing, but for him considering

586
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 2: that and he's filled blowing my expectations. But I'm sure

587
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 2: the Marlins would have been in hindsight, they would have

588
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 2: been happier to have his production than Sigurs.

589
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 1: So far this year's paying a lot. Becau jury has

590
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: not been great this year, but a lot of season

591
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 1: left and with that being said, that will recap previews

592
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 1: so we'll get to the best part of the show here.

593
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: Probably got about a half hour to do it for

594
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: thinking eight thirty cutoff here, probably just so we don't

595
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: lose half of the small viewership we already have the TNT. Anyways,

596
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 1: we'll get going on it, but first we do it

597
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,959
Speaker 1: every week. We'll do it again. Consider becoming a super subscriber.

Speaker 1: is put together. You get to see that. I call

606
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,880
Speaker 1: it the Marlins Bible. It's cool. I now read it

607
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: before pretty much every single game, or at least every

608
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 1: single series at that. But I'm trying to think of

609
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,479
Speaker 1: what else there is, and may have hit it all

610
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: high rab them all off pretty quick. But there are

611
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:12,200

615
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: deal out there. We've got Romeo coming in here now.

00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 1: request and ask a question as long as you appear

620
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 1: to be a Marlins fan in your profile. At least.

621
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: We've had some people sneak in here and say some

622
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 1: not some nice things to me before. But anyone can request.

623
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: It's just guys like Romeo. He gets first DIBs. So Romeo,

624
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: you usually don't have a question for us, but I'm

625
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 1: sure to see what you've got today, especially because your

626
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: boy is going to be facing your team this week.

627
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: I just don't want to run. I'll be honest with you.

628
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 1: If you strive to through, I'll be happy because they

629
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: want checked out. Anyways, Well, I guess if I were you,

630
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 1: I would hope that the Marlins are already up big.

631
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: So that way, if Justin Lawrence comes in when it's

632
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: like a five run game, it's like the eighth inning.

633
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: The game's already over. If he puts down like severa

634
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: Stallings and Jacob or Xavier Edwards one, two, three, just

635
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: like that. That's like a win win for you.

636
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 3: But if it won't bring him in, he's their high

637
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 3: liver roots arm and I put it in quotation marks

638
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 3: because they are.

639
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: They don't get really in the high leverage situations that

640
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 1: much because it's not good. That's what I said. I

641
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: shouldn't say that before four games set with them. I

642
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:47,480
Speaker 1: feel like that's putting bad jujo on the Marlins. I

643
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: was gonna say, if you had Rogers is coming back soon, right?

644
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 1: He should be. What was the injury update?

645
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 2: Not that soon this week. I think it's still at

646
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 2: least a few weeks this weekends. He threw a thirty

647
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 2: five pitch bullpen session. That was after throwing another bullpen

648
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 2: earlier in the week at twenty five. He still didn't

649
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 2: need multiple rehab starts before he gets back. He will

650
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 2: be back in June, but probably right now a mid

651
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:16,840
Speaker 2: June trajectory for him.

652
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 1: Trevor look at the schedule real quick. At June's treacherous

653
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,719
Speaker 1: for the Marlins. I'd say maybe around like yeah, I'd

654
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,600
Speaker 1: say the June would be good. You get the Nationals

655
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 1: somewhere in there early. It's a pretty nice stretch for

656
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: the Marlins against like weaker teams, although around here we

657
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 1: don't like to look ahead too much because we just

658
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: like taking a series at a time. But no, I

659
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,680
Speaker 1: think there's some good spots for to try and slot him,

660
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: and you want to do it strategically. They did it

661
00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: strategically with Fiery, but making sure his first three career

662
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: starts were against the Reds, the Nationals, Rockies. I think

663
00:33:55,640 --> 00:34:00,160
Speaker 1: that's the best way to eat the guy in. But yeah, ever,

664
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 1: still probably a few weeks away. I really don't even

665
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 1: know if we're gonna see Quato start againting for the

666
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: Marlins this year at this rate, just with the way

667
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: the rest of rotations go. I'm not saying because Cuato's injury.

668
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 1: I'm saying that because the rest of rotation is so good.

669
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 1: Who do you justify kicking out for a guy that

670
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:20,279
Speaker 1: got absolutely blasted in the one inning he played. I

671
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: guess the Marlins do like the same face a lot

672
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:24,479
Speaker 1: of times. When they pay big guys to play them

673
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: too much, they just ride them into the dirt. But

674
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: I just don't see who you take out of the

675
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: rotation right now in favor of thirty thirty nine year

676
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: old Johnnyquaita. Oh, I wouldn't touch any of them. Yeah,

677
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 1: any other questions, Is there just anything that you had

678
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: on your mind? I'm not going to like I did.

679
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: It's amazing. I want to apologize to Eli's neighbors. That

680
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: one is. I think that's an important one. He said. Speak.

681
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:05,240
Speaker 1: Look last weekend, I was very, very sick during this show,

682
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: and it was that gave me the one good laugh

683
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 1: I had all day that made my day last week

684
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: That that was the pain of a Marlins fan alcoming out. Uh.

685
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,200
Speaker 1: I just had a question and it just slipped up.

686
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 1: But it just it just slipped my mind. We got time,

687
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,759
Speaker 1: We got time. You can bring up Ryan while I

688
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: try and think if he's requested. Yeah, we have our

689
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 1: usuals now, although if anyone new wants to come in

690
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: here and ask a question, more than welcome to. Yeah.

691
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 2: I just wanted to mention I added a tweet in

692
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 2: here about the Rockies last series where they got swept

693
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 2: and outscored by twenty one runs. For everybody that has

694
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 2: been around here, with run differential being such a big

695
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 2: topic of conversation, the Rockies run differential this year is

696
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,440
Speaker 2: almost as bad as the Marlins. It's not as bad,

697
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 2: but they're kind of in that same ballpark, especially recently,

698
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 2: with the players that they have available. They are their

699
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 2: team where they're not winning as many as the close

700
00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 2: games and they get blown out even more often than

701
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 2: the Marlins.

702
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 4: Two.

703
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 2: This is a very vulnerable opponent in my opinion.

704
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: All right, yes, go ahead, go ahead. Yeah, A questions

705
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: as you have this week?

706
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I got one question that was on my mind.

707
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 5: So I was watching, you know, the Valley Sports broadcast,

708
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 5: and I saw they did a minor league report about

709
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 5: jar and Carnossi putting up good numbers in Triple A,

710
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 5: and I was thinking, you know, Erdeck hasn't really been

711
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 5: doing too good at the major league level. Would you

712
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 5: ever consider maybe walking Aboutosi. I know Jesus Sanchez might

713
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 5: be coming back soon.

714
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: Uh really, I think probably I fit better bit of

715
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,320
Speaker 1: them another two three weeks, I don't. I don't. That

716
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:07,839
Speaker 1: isn't the best case, but that serious, it's a it's

717
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 1: a good question. That's just what Skip alluded to. We

718
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 1: don't have that many details of it, but it doesn't

719
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,759
Speaker 1: sound like he's coming back anytime soon. The big hint

720
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 1: was it's going to be more than ten days. When

721
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 1: he went on the ten day I l and he's

722
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: gonna have rehab starts and there the Marlins like to

723
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: take their time with rehab starts. Typically when they say

724
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,839
Speaker 1: a players out for two four weeks, it's probably more

725
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: like three or five, just because they ease them back

726
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: in and are Your question is, what do you think

727
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: that they would consider numbers? I mean, I don't really

728
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 1: know if is clearly better than Verdict. I mean, I

729
00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 1: don't really know Verdict's clearly better than.

730
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:49,720
Speaker 5: Consistently put up good numbers in Triple license the beginning lash.

731
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,719
Speaker 1: Here, Verdict also put up excellent numbers in Triple A

732
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:54,880
Speaker 1: to start there. The Marlins, I've had a lot of

733
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: players put up really good numbers in Jacksonville or New

734
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: Orleans over the years, and they come up to the

735
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 1: big leagues and they just don't translate. So I feel

736
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 1: like Eli or if Alex Carver decides to join, they

737
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,520
Speaker 1: either one of them will give you a better evaluation

738
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,879
Speaker 1: or who was better between the two. It's probably tough call.

739
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: But if Berdick keeps hitting the way he does, over

740
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,359
Speaker 1: like another couple of weeks and Hayzy Sanchez isn't making

741
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 1: great progress. I don't see why they shouldn't bring up

742
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:25,320
Speaker 1: in Karnacion for at least a week or two, just

743
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: again they want to see what they've gotten. He's had

744
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 1: shots in the MLB before. But and I get they're

745
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: trying to see more about what Burdick has. But got

746
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: to pull out all stops. At this point, it's a

747
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: team that's expected to try and compete for a playoff

748
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,720
Speaker 1: spot this year. You've got to pull out all the stops.

749
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 1: You can't just stampat and just over the best. Right.

750
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 2: I entered this year thinking pretty convincingly that Berdick was

751
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 2: a better player than in Karnacion. To be honest, the

752
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 2: marginal things will be I should say, all the all

753
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 2: the tie breakers go for Berdick. Berdick a much better defender,

754
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:03,400
Speaker 2: and at least he can play. He can fake it

755
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 2: in center field generally, even though this hasn't been a

756
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,120
Speaker 2: great sample this year, he's gonna add more defensive value.

757
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 2: He's gonna add more base running value, and he's also

758
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:17,360
Speaker 2: going to draw walks more frequently and just work deeper counts. Ultimately,

759
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 2: it doesn't much matter unless he could put the bat

760
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 2: on the ball, which he has not done at all

761
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 2: since he got called up, and that's been really disappointing.

762
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 2: With Ancharnasi on it's the same sort of risk with him,

763
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 2: where his power is probably even greater. His raw power

764
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 2: is greater than verdicts. He He just yesterday hit this

765
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 2: really impressive opposite field home run that went almost four

766
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 2: hundred feet. He has power to all fields in a

767
00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 2: way that hardly anybody on this Marlins roster does. It's

768
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 2: I guess Avi Avi Garcia can do the same thing

769
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 2: when he used to do the same thing a few

770
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 2: years ago before he became a Marlin. His hit for

771
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 2: immense power to all fields. The big question is just

772
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 2: whether he can make contacts. The same thing as the

773
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 2: strong right now is he is. His mechanics are just

774
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 2: too He's just too slow to get his back through

775
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:11,640
Speaker 2: the zone to catch up with fastballs at all. Really concerning,

776
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 2: and that's the same thing with Ankarnasion, especially last year

777
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 2: when he got his opportunity in the big League, they

778
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,760
Speaker 2: had to send him back down because he was striking

779
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 2: out almost half the time, and a lot of it

780
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 2: was just not catching up too fastballs, so it's I

781
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 2: would like to see them ride with Burdick until one

782
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 2: of those other young outfielders comes back. I think in Charnasion,

783
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 2: if he keeps us up, he's going to get his

784
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,479
Speaker 2: chance later in the year. He is on the forty

785
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 2: man roster. He does have nothing left to prove down

786
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 2: in the miners. He's doing well, but the way that

787
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 2: he's getting those results in the miners where he's still

788
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,680
Speaker 2: striking out a lot when it happens, I'm just not

789
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 2: very optimistic that that's going to translate.

790
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:53,759
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, And my.

791
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 5: Next question here is I'm just wondering, you know, four

792
00:40:57,320 --> 00:41:01,840
Speaker 5: gillames ers coming up in Colorado, the toughest ballpark for pictures.

793
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 5: You know, your pictures, the pitches that they throw don't

794
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 5: get as much movement. And I know I remember in

795
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,280
Speaker 5: twenty twenty one when the Marlins were in Course, Sandy

796
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 5: had an awful star.

797
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 1: It was like a blow up start. You did like

798
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:14,320
Speaker 1: eight runs and two winnings or something like that.

799
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 5: So what are your both of you are expectations when

800
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 5: the Marlins go to Colorado for the pictures.

801
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 1: I really pictures usually get blown up in course and

802
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: everyone fearmongers over that, but it hasn't really happened this

803
00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:33,479
Speaker 1: year for one main reason. The Rockies lieup really isn't

804
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 1: that good. I would be disappointed if really any of

805
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 1: these four guys this series, whether it be Eddie, Gary,

806
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 1: Brats in the word, Sandy, especially Sandy, if any of

807
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:52,120
Speaker 1: them get absolutely crushed this week. But this is just

808
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: not an impressive Rockies lineup. Sure you're gonna see more

809
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 1: big flies, you're gonna see more flyouts, but maybe that

810
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: helps more ground ball guys on the roster in that regard,

811
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 1: whether that be Sandy or Eddie especially, but.

812
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 2: I don't.

813
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,960
Speaker 1: I'm not playing into it too much. I really wouldn't,

814
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,719
Speaker 1: because again, this is is Rocky team is not good

815
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: if they give up four or five or more runs

816
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 1: to the Rockies. And like every single game this series,

817
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: I think the problem wise further within the team than

818
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 1: the ballpark.

819
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 2: Well, I want to highlight a couple of players in particular.

820
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 2: You'll remember last year as that as Sandy was in cours,

821
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,399
Speaker 2: Edward was amazing. He had like a no hitter going

822
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 2: into the sixth ending when he passed the Rockies. Last year,

823
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:44,760
Speaker 2: he was amazing, and the reason why as Ryan greatly mentions,

824
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 2: you know, your pitches don't break the same in cores,

825
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:52,399
Speaker 2: and that specifically Jen still applied to breaking balls, meaning

826
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 2: curve balls and sliders in particular, those pitches that are

827
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 2: usually great at missing bats, they don't break the same.

828
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 2: They just hang up there a little bit and are

829
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 2: a lot easier to put into play. But a change up, specifically,

830
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 2: that's a pitch that doesn't rely on spin. That's the

831
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 2: one that it's almost the opposite, where you get as

832
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,360
Speaker 2: little spin as possible or refer to drop as it

833
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,239
Speaker 2: gets to the plate. That's a type of pitch that

834
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 2: generally is not as adversely affected by the high altitude.

835
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,480
Speaker 2: With Eddie, when he had that great start, that was

836
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,120
Speaker 2: also the start where he threw the fastest changeup. Ever,

837
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,720
Speaker 2: that's when he threw that ninety six mile per hour changeup.

838
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 2: Those are pitches that you can still get good results

839
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,120
Speaker 2: off of. That's something it kind of like overcomes the conditions.

840
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 2: So with Eddie, I would go out on a limon

841
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 2: predict that he's going to have yet another very good

842
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:43,319
Speaker 2: start because he's still relying on that pitch a lot,

843
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 2: and that pitch has generally been good for him this

844
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 2: year so far, even when he's had inconsistencies, overall, I

845
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,320
Speaker 2: think he's going to be fine. On the other side,

846
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 2: this is a really big challenge for Yuri because in

847
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,839
Speaker 2: his first two starts in the Majors, his change up

848
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:04,200
Speaker 2: has been really disappointing. Esus has not had the feel

849
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 2: for it. He hasn't thrown it. When he has thrown it,

850
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 2: it's not gone where it's supposed to go. It's been

851
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 2: a non factor for him so far. Despite everything we

852
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 2: know about him entering his debut thinking that it's going

853
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,359
Speaker 2: to be a really plus pitch in the majors. Maybe

854
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 2: this is when he finds it and that helps him

855
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 2: have success. And again even despite the change of circumstances.

856
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 2: But if he tries to pitch the way that he

857
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:31,480
Speaker 2: had his previous two starts in Miami, I don't think

858
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 2: it's going to go very well for him. So there's

859
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:37,040
Speaker 2: a lot of the timing of this is really interesting

860
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: because he hasn't had that change up yet. He's had

861
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 2: his other pitches have worked really well so far this year,

862
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,120
Speaker 2: but this third start is gonna have the look different

863
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,400
Speaker 2: than his other ones in order for him to have success.

864
00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,800
Speaker 2: So that's the main storyline. The story within the story

865
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 2: for URI's first road start to me is saying how

866
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,279
Speaker 2: often he uses that change up and whether it's any

867
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:57,880
Speaker 2: good for him.

868
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna out now. Thank you for having me on,

869
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 1: and very.

870
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:06,320
Speaker 5: Good insight about the pictures in course field Euli. So

871
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 5: everyone listening, go subscribe, go become a super subscriber for

872
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 5: fish Stripes. And now Romeo, I know he wants to

873
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 5: mention what he was going to say before I came on.

874
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:17,360
Speaker 1: So yep, thanks for having me on. I'll see you

875
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 1: guys next Sunday. Thank you. Yeah, absolutely so, very very

876
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 1: respectful young man. Right the Romeo, you have the question.

877
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,360
Speaker 1: By the way, anyone who wants to speak, go ahead

878
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 1: and request smaller audience to speak. So we'll probably go

879
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:35,760
Speaker 1: ahead and wrap up if no one else has anything

880
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 1: after Romeo, I see Sean out there though, Sean, you

881
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:39,520
Speaker 1: got something.

882
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,840
Speaker 2: We're being told in a separate conversation that Jack a

883
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:45,800
Speaker 2: Zoot is going to be joining us and trying to

884
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 2: answer a question, but you better get it in quick.

885
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 2: We're going to give this movie twelve minutes. We will

886
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,279
Speaker 2: push it a little longer, but not much beyond that.

887
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 2: Hopefully Jack milk it a little bit.

888
00:45:56,280 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 6: But wait, wait, you know we started on all right,

889
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:07,280
Speaker 6: So my question is Cooper went what over this weekend?

890
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 1: Right? I don't think he got a hit? Yeah, very

891
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 1: bad baseball played by Gary Cooper.

892
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 2: Now, yes, I looked it up. It was over eleven

893
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,840
Speaker 2: with a walk. He struck out at least once in

894
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 2: every game, and some of the outs he made were

895
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 2: on with runners in the scoring position.

896
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: You know.

897
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 2: Today was that worst one was with the runners on

898
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 2: the corners and went out and he got ahead in

899
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,439
Speaker 2: the count and then he took this really ugly swing

900
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 2: and popped it up in the infield. It was that

901
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 2: was his worst series of the season. It goes without saying,

902
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 2: all right.

903
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 1: Here the lineup constructing Xavier Edwards the decent as second combo.

904
00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 1: I mean he hasn't been bad, right, Why not solid

905
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 1: players so far?

906
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

907
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 1: Said I would.

908
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 3: Give Cooper day off, all right, Julia day Off put

909
00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:58,800
Speaker 3: a rise at first.

910
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:04,440
Speaker 1: You could put Hampson or or Xavier at second, or

911
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 1: Birdie at second where you want at second? He put

912
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,239
Speaker 1: it outfield. You're trying to.

913
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,200
Speaker 3: Construct something different, because neither did Juliet even get.

914
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 1: A hit today.

915
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 3: He popped center fil I think he didn't even get

916
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 3: a hit. Cooper's been bad. It's just maybe try and

917
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,839
Speaker 3: switch something up in this lineup. I know we can't

918
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 3: what we got to five rounds today, but it's still

919
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:24,480
Speaker 3: not enough to win.

920
00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 1: I want to see a different lineup now, know. I

921
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: mean David Vere's walked today and then he proved some

922
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,120
Speaker 1: part of the game. He got a single and got

923
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: into a double play. We're not gonna speak about.

924
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 3: That, but he got walked and it was called to

925
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 3: strike three. That was anybody with the eyes can see

926
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:42,719
Speaker 3: that was a walk an important part.

927
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 1: Of the game. He's had a good at bats. I

928
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: feel like he's deserved.

929
00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 3: He's earned his way into starting and at least a

930
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 3: couple of games over some players that are not producing

931
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:53,759
Speaker 3: in the Riot. And you have the people that can

932
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 3: cover first. If I canna play first, he did it

933
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:59,520
Speaker 3: all year last year. He's played a second.

934
00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,320
Speaker 1: But I feel like you're gonna get more out of

935
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:03,799
Speaker 1: your lineup maybe.

936
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:07,319
Speaker 3: So like I said, add that if you put if

937
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,040
Speaker 3: you're trying something out in that line up, then give

938
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 3: Coop a day off and give him another couple of

939
00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:11,879
Speaker 3: resties that you did c Gar.

940
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,359
Speaker 1: I don't. I like the idea of just giving Coop

941
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 1: a few days off of the reset. It seemed to

942
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:22,239
Speaker 1: work at least temporarily with Cigarette, but I don't know

943
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 1: if Skip would entertain the idea of putting her eyes

944
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:27,880
Speaker 1: back in person. The Marrow is pretty committed to him

945
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,360
Speaker 1: playing second. I think I think you're more likely to

946
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:32,919
Speaker 1: see them give Coop a few days off and play

947
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:36,800
Speaker 1: Yuli there. But I don't know if they'd slide or

948
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 1: rise over there if they really have that much faith

949
00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 1: and xaviory edwards. But I feel like the main idea

950
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 1: of this space is particularly has been just see what

951
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 1: you got. So I don't hate the idea.

952
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:54,800
Speaker 2: I don't, I guess so I'm not overly concerned about

953
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 2: Coop right now. I would just get that. I'm also

954
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 2: I've been kind of clear that I'm skeptical about Yulie.

955
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 2: So unless it's going to be Arise always playing first base,

956
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:07,320
Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna you can expect much offense

957
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:10,000
Speaker 2: from from Yulie when he's starting in place of Coop.

958
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,920
Speaker 2: If you look at it recently, he gives you an

959
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,759
Speaker 2: occasional infield singles in recent weeks, and that's about it.

960
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 2: So I don't think that's that's going to be much

961
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 2: of an upgrade on days that Coop sits. I think

962
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 2: he's all wants to see this a little bit longer.

963
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 2: But if we get deeper into this upcoming week and Cooper, yeah,

964
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:35,239
Speaker 2: if he can't get going at course Field, then there's

965
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:39,440
Speaker 2: something wrong. Cooper is built specifically for course field. For

966
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 2: people that don't know this, he is one of the

967
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,880
Speaker 2: all time MLB leaders in a career for batting average

968
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,840
Speaker 2: on balls and play. For his career, it has just

969
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:52,440
Speaker 2: been almost inexplicable how somebody like him who doesn't run

970
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 2: well just gets so many hits. He is is such

971
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 2: a it gets overlooked how good he is at finding

972
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,279
Speaker 2: gaps in the defense and calibrating his swing to get

973
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 2: that perfect line drive that there's splits the gaps or

974
00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:09,759
Speaker 2: falls in front of outfielders. So if Coop can't run

975
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 2: himself into a handful hits certain this upcoming series against

976
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 2: the Rockies, then that's when I would start getting a

977
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,759
Speaker 2: little bit concerned that something is off. But I think

978
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:19,759
Speaker 2: this comes at a perfect time for him. For as

979
00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 2: bad as he was this past weekends, I think Corsefield

980
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:25,680
Speaker 2: is the perfect medicine for him.

981
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, this series is coming at a pretty good time

982
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 1: where Marlin's offense upside of today, it was really not

983
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,440
Speaker 1: existent even today, it was kind of carried by one person.

984
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 1: But I think he's gonna have a monster series this week.

985
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 1: I kind of showed my hand here is to who

986
00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:42,920
Speaker 1: my series MVP is gonna be. But the horgees Silaire

987
00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 1: is my great baseball right now. I would love to

988
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:46,640
Speaker 1: see him in the home run theraby. I don't know

989
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 1: if you participate. I campaign for I started like a

990
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:52,920
Speaker 1: week ago. I want to see jorgees Hilaire on a

991
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,640
Speaker 1: Monday night in July. I think it would be fun

992
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,759
Speaker 1: before someone else gonna go nick Enright? Is he How

993
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:05,600
Speaker 1: has he been doing?

994
00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 3: I know I doubt that he'll make the front lineup

995
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 3: anytime soon because the bullpen is pretty much like solid.

996
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,319
Speaker 3: I don't know, in my opinion, I don't know if

997
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 3: you want to give Towing the start again because I.

998
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:18,680
Speaker 1: Feel like I'm the only guy that would take right

999
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,799
Speaker 1: out of this position. But how has he been doing?

1000
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 3: I think he's been doing decent, but like someone that

1001
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,080
Speaker 3: actually watches the game, because I really.

1002
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:28,279
Speaker 1: Don't would be a really good Harvard question, but he's

1003
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 1: not here. Eli probably hasn't answered.

1004
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,839
Speaker 2: Though, yes, because I did watch his most recent game,

1005
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 2: which was impressive. Three scoreless endings against the Reds Triple

1006
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 2: A affiliate that was last night, including a strikeout of

1007
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,040
Speaker 2: Elie Delacruz, who, in some people's opinion, is the very

1008
00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:43,400
Speaker 2: best prospect in baseball.

1009
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 1: Bats are pretty good. That Reds farms is good. They

1010
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 1: got Christian and Carlossi. The Reds got a few more

1011
00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:53,160
Speaker 1: good Triple A guyss are pretty good.

1012
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:57,080
Speaker 2: Yes, and Karnaci and Strands pummeled en Right for a double,

1013
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,800
Speaker 2: but that didn't lead tenny rounds. It was three scoreless sendings.

1014
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 2: This is, I believe, his fifth rehab appearance.

1015
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 1: Overall.

1016
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 2: They've been doing it deliberately over the last month or so,

1017
00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:10,279
Speaker 2: the last few weeks in the month of May. He's

1018
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 2: coming back next weekends, either next weekend or probably right

1019
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 2: after the road trip, one of the two. He's gonna

1020
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 2: be eligible to come back next weekends after being on

1021
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:22,800
Speaker 2: the sixty day I l and to clarify, he needs

1022
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 2: to be on the active roster when he is done

1023
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 2: with his rehab assignment. That's what happens when you're a

1024
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 2: Rule five draft pick. He can't option you. He can't

1025
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 2: option somebody to the minors. In this case, the loophole

1026
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,520
Speaker 2: is that he's on a quote rehab assignment, coming back

1027
00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:40,920
Speaker 2: from Hodgkins lymphoma, and in that it's now been a

1028
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 2: few weeks and there's been a lot of positive in

1029
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 2: his performance so far. The main thing is that he's

1030
00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:49,240
Speaker 2: just throwing strikes and he's been aggressive. And the interesting

1031
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,239
Speaker 2: wrinkle is that they have stretched him out quite a bit.

1032
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,880
Speaker 2: That he threw three innings in this past outing upwards

1033
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:58,920
Speaker 2: of forty something pitches. I think he's gonna be back

1034
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 2: on this roster and he's gonna have an important role considering,

1035
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:03,720
Speaker 2: you know, the lack of length that they've been getting

1036
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:06,640
Speaker 2: from most of their starters this year. He's going to be,

1037
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 2: I would expect the long man in this bullpen, the

1038
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 2: guy that pretty frequently when it comes to Uri and

1039
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:14,719
Speaker 2: when Uri reaches a point in his games where they

1040
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:16,319
Speaker 2: don't want to push him any farther, like, en Wright

1041
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,680
Speaker 2: is going to be a guy that piggybacks him. That's

1042
00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:21,920
Speaker 2: a phrase that has kind of fallen out of style,

1043
00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:25,440
Speaker 2: but a piggybacker, piggyback guy that is expected as a

1044
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 2: bitch multiple innings to get them through. Even if it's

1045
00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 2: a low leverage situation, it's really important and it adds

1046
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 2: up and keeps everybody fresh. So it's reiterate, en right,

1047
00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,800
Speaker 2: he's eligible to return next weekends. I believe next Saturday

1048
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:42,959
Speaker 2: is the date where the sixty days expires. Potentially, because

1049
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,680
Speaker 2: it's on the road, they may wait until the team

1050
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:48,359
Speaker 2: is back home the following week, on May thirtieth. Maybe

1051
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:50,640
Speaker 2: that's the day they bring him back. I'd be surprised

1052
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:52,680
Speaker 2: if he's not back by May thirtieth, and at that

1053
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:54,840
Speaker 2: time they have to make a decision about which pitcher

1054
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:57,240
Speaker 2: to send down. This is something you want to evaluate

1055
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 2: as late as possible, you know, for as we get

1056
00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,239
Speaker 2: to the middle of this week, when it's evidently clear

1057
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,919
Speaker 2: that he's ready, and when there's no new injuries. Knock

1058
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 2: on wood. If there's no new injuries on this pitching

1059
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:10,759
Speaker 2: stuff and you actually had to send down a healthy arm,

1060
00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 2: there will be an interesting conversation. But my all too

1061
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:16,560
Speaker 2: early prediction is that he would take the Brian Hoeing

1062
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:18,759
Speaker 2: spot and that that Hoeing would get stretched out as

1063
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:21,320
Speaker 2: a starter again in the minors and stay ready for

1064
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:24,760
Speaker 2: if they ever need an additional reinforcement in the rotation.

1065
00:54:26,120 --> 00:54:28,520
Speaker 1: It's a pretty good guess, though. I think he would

1066
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:30,759
Speaker 1: probably be the guy just so that he can get

1067
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:36,440
Speaker 1: right because these injuries they're play so they might need that.

1068
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:43,879
Speaker 1: I'm still talking because just my questions are coming back

1069
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:46,800
Speaker 1: to me. We got we got a few minutes gosh.

1070
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 1: I like Juri Press's last start against the Nats. That

1071
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:54,839
Speaker 1: was a very good start. He gave up one home

1072
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 1: run to.

1073
00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:59,600
Speaker 3: Trimric Colin de Lario, who was making impossible out this weekend,

1074
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:05,360
Speaker 3: but I think he pissed perfect and I think that

1075
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:09,879
Speaker 3: then that series was very well coached by Skip.

1076
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:13,800
Speaker 1: I liked it. I agree. I agree that was a

1077
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 1: very well managed series. Any time you win a close

1078
00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:19,600
Speaker 1: game and managing does play a factor into it, at

1079
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 1: least not all the players. But I agree with you.

1080
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:30,160
Speaker 3: Grant question, before the whole celier home run, what had happened.

1081
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:35,239
Speaker 1: The previous place, before the home run, the walk off?

1082
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,200
Speaker 1: How was at work that night? So what I do

1083
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:40,239
Speaker 1: when when I don't watch games is if I'm not

1084
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 1: able to watch it the next morning, I wake up

1085
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,400
Speaker 1: much the same time every morning. I watched a condensed

1086
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 1: game just like forty five minutes. It's it's pretty easy

1087
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,399
Speaker 1: to watch. I kind of forget, but those two outs

1088
00:55:50,440 --> 00:55:52,560
Speaker 1: and I think they got two guys on and then

1089
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 1: Jorra Silaire hit that, or maybe it was just one

1090
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,040
Speaker 1: guy on. I remember it being two outs and then

1091
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,640
Speaker 1: they got some guys on it. So Laire hit the dude.

1092
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:04,320
Speaker 3: It was alright, hit a single. John Birdie got on

1093
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 3: beast and what did he do?

1094
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:13,120
Speaker 1: Grant you know, oh, why what did he do? I

1095
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 1: forget a little bee? He did see you one that

1096
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:20,680
Speaker 1: I forgot. You talked about second and the next pitch

1097
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:21,480
Speaker 1: was a home run.

1098
00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:27,040
Speaker 3: I was laughing because it was just it was perfect

1099
00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:28,200
Speaker 3: because it was just coming off.

1100
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:31,160
Speaker 1: That rant that I just had first game, bad game back.

1101
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 1: It was yeah, well time it seems I know what

1102
00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:40,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. You got the Quato you were at

1103
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:44,240
Speaker 1: Cuato Hater in the offseason. You got that, right, your rant?

1104
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:48,640
Speaker 1: It just kind of played in the fruition this week. Man,

1105
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:52,960
Speaker 1: we gotta start listening to you more. I remember I

1106
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:55,719
Speaker 1: got cloked by MBI, by Marlin sort of. I said

1107
00:56:55,719 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: that Quito signing was bad, but it was bad. It

1108
00:57:02,200 --> 00:57:05,279
Speaker 1: was bad. I think if you look up waste of money.

1109
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 1: I think that's the first thing that pops up when

1110
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,239
Speaker 1: one year deal. It was just a one year deal.

1111
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 1: But it's not gonna bite him too hard, is it one?

1112
00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 2: I think it's one Yeah, one year with a club option.

1113
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:24,120
Speaker 2: There's the saying goes, there's no such thing as a

1114
00:57:24,200 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 2: bad one year deal because after one year is over,

1115
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 2: So they're going to barring a miracle, they can buy

1116
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 2: out the second option for twenty twenty four and.

1117
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: Not a ton of money, I don't think. I think

1118
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:37,800
Speaker 1: it's only like a couple of million at that.

1119
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 2: Yes, so the guarantee was eight point five. They've already

1120
00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:44,600
Speaker 2: paid him six and so the buyout is two point five.

1121
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:47,640
Speaker 2: If it's between two point five, we're giving him a

1122
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:53,040
Speaker 2: salary of about eight eight point five. It's it's gonna be. Yeah,

1123
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:56,120
Speaker 2: they're gonna swallow that pill unless he comes back. It's

1124
00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 2: still a long season. That's what I want to reiterate.

1125
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,560
Speaker 2: It's how long this sea and is. They're not even

1126
00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:05,400
Speaker 2: fifty games in. We're not even thirty percent of the

1127
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:05,840
Speaker 2: way there.

1128
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, we are like only a month and a half.

1129
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:12,280
Speaker 1: We got a lot more. We have so much baseball up.

1130
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, there are are players that haven't even crossed your

1131
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:17,600
Speaker 2: mind that are gonna see significant playing time on the

1132
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:19,800
Speaker 2: Marlins before the season is over. And they are gonna

1133
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:22,280
Speaker 2: be players that you have ridden off who are going

1134
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 2: to be helpful before the season is over. I don't

1135
00:58:24,920 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 2: know if Quata is one of those. I have just

1136
00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:30,360
Speaker 2: been through this too many times to pretend to know

1137
00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 2: exactly how this is gonna play out. So with Quata,

1138
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 2: he's throwing again. He's throwing again. You can't put it

1139
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:39,920
Speaker 2: totally out of the question that he's going to salvage

1140
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 2: something out of the season.

1141
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:47,640
Speaker 1: Any final questions, Romeo, I said, guys who haven't even

1142
00:58:47,680 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 1: crossed your mind are gonna come up. Isaac listening Jacob Maya,

1143
00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:54,400
Speaker 1: he will at some point, he will come up. Guys

1144
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:56,640
Speaker 1: who you see on the fish on the Farm Twitter

1145
00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,160
Speaker 1: and our prospect covers Twitter. Do we talk about they

1146
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: will come up at some point. It's a long season.

1147
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 1: And I also have a ton of options of guys

1148
00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 1: that really play, but entirely you're going to see some names.

1149
00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:14,240
Speaker 1: Can we talk about how funny there?

1150
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 3: What was it the fourth run that they scored or

1151
00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 3: the sixth was because John Bury didn't want it? Literally

1152
00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:24,120
Speaker 3: fall in the dugout and they got on second base

1153
00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 3: because of it.

1154
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:29,840
Speaker 1: Today, I think they so loss even if had that

1155
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:35,080
Speaker 1: not happened, though, well fun four fourth still at that point,

1156
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:39,560
Speaker 1: was it four or five? I think it lost.

1157
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 2: I believe that was the seventh run. They were down

1158
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,480
Speaker 2: six to four at the time, and that contributed to

1159
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 2: that seventh run scoring. That would have been if it

1160
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,960
Speaker 2: happens in a tie game, that would be one of

1161
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:55,080
Speaker 2: the more frustrating plays of the entire season. So they

1162
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,680
Speaker 2: ruled it because he caught it entirely in the field

1163
00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:00,960
Speaker 2: of play and then by his his own choice, ran

1164
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,000
Speaker 2: out of the field to play because he went into

1165
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:07,640
Speaker 2: the Giants dugout. That was it was the same thing

1166
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,040
Speaker 2: as throwing the ball out of play as well, So

1167
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,720
Speaker 2: that's what led to see the extra base happening there.

1168
01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,480
Speaker 2: That if the game circumstances were a little bit different,

1169
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:18,240
Speaker 2: if it felt like the game was more within reach

1170
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:20,680
Speaker 2: and that led to a ninety feet that contributed to

1171
01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 2: run scoring, then the vibe would be very different. Yeah,

1172
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:29,720
Speaker 2: you can understand from Birdie situation that it's it's a

1173
01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:33,080
Speaker 2: somewhat of a judgment call there where if you fall

1174
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:36,800
Speaker 2: out of play while making the catch itself all in

1175
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:41,240
Speaker 2: one action. Then it's fine. Then that doesn't that's not involved.

1176
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 2: But because he kind of made a choice in the

1177
01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:48,120
Speaker 2: judgment of the umpire to go out of play, that's

1178
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:50,480
Speaker 2: what led to that extra base there.

1179
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:54,160
Speaker 1: There's a similar play today in the in the Reds

1180
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:56,560
Speaker 1: Peacock game. It was like the first inning and the

1181
01:00:56,680 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 1: Reds were hitting and that the Yankees. That thing is Twitter,

1182
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 1: but I wasn't on Twitter for most of the day.

1183
01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:06,440
Speaker 1: But that Bowers guy for the for the Yankees, was

1184
01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 1: on the right field line, and he was right there

1185
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 1: on the foul line, had the ball in his glove,

1186
01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:15,720
Speaker 1: dropped it in play, and I thought that the they

1187
01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:17,280
Speaker 1: were going to get the red because the Reds had

1188
01:01:17,320 --> 01:01:19,720
Speaker 1: a runner on first and India was rounding second. I

1189
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 1: thought they were going to get the Reds and runners

1190
01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:23,720
Speaker 1: on the corners. They overturned it, of course, because that

1191
01:01:23,800 --> 01:01:26,880
Speaker 1: ball wasn't playing. They initially called a foul but that

1192
01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 1: but they ruled in an RBI double, which caught me

1193
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:34,440
Speaker 1: by surprise. And Boone got ejected, So I wouldn't have

1194
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 1: been surprised at all. If if Skimp would have gotten

1195
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:39,840
Speaker 1: injected had that been a closer game because the game

1196
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:42,400
Speaker 1: was still zero zero at that point. I just happened

1197
01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:44,600
Speaker 1: to be watched. I thought that was hilarious that they

1198
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 1: actually did overturn the call, especially in the game with

1199
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 1: the Yankees were involved in any other questions though, Robio,

1200
01:01:52,560 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 1: you're kind of kind of send us out here. The

1201
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:59,720
Speaker 1: game starts with a few here. Were already losing some listeners.

1202
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,360
Speaker 1: So we've got anything else? Ask her real quick?

1203
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 3: Nah?

1204
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:09,640
Speaker 1: All right? Oh no, Sean last second or West? Hold on?

1205
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:13,080
Speaker 1: Hold on? What do we got? What do we got? Quick?

1206
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:22,160
Speaker 1: In here? He's still there? We go shot? What do

1207
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:27,720
Speaker 1: we got out here? Hey? If one question and I

1208
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,120
Speaker 1: took it. You talked about this earlier in the show

1209
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 1: to just say you talked about it earlier, but I

1210
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 1: saw it you. I saw you treated earlier about Austin Allen.

1211
01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:41,120
Speaker 4: So just wondering if you guys can touch on just

1212
01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 4: catcher situation, like what do you think now being bringing

1213
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 4: him up and that being an option they decided to

1214
01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:50,000
Speaker 4: change the catcher?

1215
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:52,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that they don't have a ton of

1216
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:56,720
Speaker 1: internal options. The only internal option they have that even

1217
01:02:56,880 --> 01:02:58,920
Speaker 1: like half playing ticing is if they were to call

1218
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,040
Speaker 1: backs but injured, so I can't, at least from the

1219
01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:05,800
Speaker 1: time being an Austin Allen. He'll be fine behind the dish,

1220
01:03:05,960 --> 01:03:09,040
Speaker 1: like fine, just fine, but he's gonna be terrible at

1221
01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:12,280
Speaker 1: the plate. He shouldn't be treated as a prospect like you.

1222
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 1: I said. The Marlins, I hate to say it, they're

1223
01:03:16,200 --> 01:03:19,560
Speaker 1: kind of screwed to catcher. I mean, Stallings is gone.

1224
01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:22,120
Speaker 1: He's not gonna get back to what he once was. Fourtez.

1225
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:25,120
Speaker 1: I think his ceilings is like a good second catcher.

1226
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's like a starting caliber catcher

1227
01:03:28,200 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 1: in this league, at least the way he's playing right now.

1228
01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 1: And then again, no good internal options. Call it Bill Bamfield.

1229
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:35,880
Speaker 3: Just just do it.

1230
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:40,280
Speaker 2: I'll talk about this more on podcasts going on tomorrow morning.

1231
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:43,960
Speaker 2: About Austin Allen, He's an interesting guy, but not an

1232
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,000
Speaker 2: exciting guy. He's interesting in that he hits the ball

1233
01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 2: really hard. His max exit v low is as good

1234
01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:53,640
Speaker 2: as almost everybody on the Marlins, aside from Jorg Hazel.

1235
01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 1: There.

1236
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,160
Speaker 2: When he really gets into one, he crushes it. I

1237
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:57,680
Speaker 2: think if you got enough playing time in the majors,

1238
01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:59,680
Speaker 2: he would hit a decent amount of home runs. He

1239
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 2: hits on the left side which is important for the

1240
01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:06,560
Speaker 2: Marlins considering how few They don't have any left handed

1241
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,360
Speaker 2: power threats right now on the active roster, so he

1242
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:13,360
Speaker 2: has a role to play potentially and even defensively. I

1243
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:15,720
Speaker 2: kind of like his framing. I think he's going to

1244
01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:19,440
Speaker 2: add some value in that aspect. The issue is the

1245
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,280
Speaker 2: biggest issue when it comes to any position players that

1246
01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:24,760
Speaker 2: his I don't know how his hit tool is going

1247
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:26,920
Speaker 2: to translate. I don't know if he's gonna So far

1248
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,760
Speaker 2: in Triple A this year he is the lowest and

1249
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:32,800
Speaker 2: therefore the best strikeout rate that he's had in many

1250
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:36,440
Speaker 2: years of minor league ball. That's encouraging, but he's had

1251
01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:38,960
Speaker 2: major league opportunities in the past and he's you know,

1252
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,360
Speaker 2: he's hit below the Mendoz line with an OPS in

1253
01:04:41,400 --> 01:04:43,800
Speaker 2: the five hundreds. He's had other opportunities and it just

1254
01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:46,880
Speaker 2: hasn't translated. This is now, I think his fourth separate

1255
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:49,040
Speaker 2: year in Triple A, so you need to throw the

1256
01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:51,680
Speaker 2: overall stats out the window at that point. It's just

1257
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 2: about digging deep and looking at the skill set. And

1258
01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:58,040
Speaker 2: it's an interesting but it's an incomplete skill set. He's

1259
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 2: a slow guy, and this year he's had some bad luck.

1260
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:04,120
Speaker 2: But he's also he's a player that I would expect

1261
01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:06,760
Speaker 2: to have a very low batting average at any level

1262
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:08,480
Speaker 2: of play. It's just gonna be a question as to

1263
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:12,560
Speaker 2: how much power he gets into and how well he

1264
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 2: jives with the Marlins pitching staff. He was with the

1265
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:18,000
Speaker 2: Marlins in spring training. He did catch a handful of

1266
01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:20,640
Speaker 2: games in Grave Fruit League play. I think that's what

1267
01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:23,200
Speaker 2: puts him on the radar, is that he's somewhat familiar

1268
01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:26,160
Speaker 2: with these guys from working with them all throughout Major

1269
01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:29,400
Speaker 2: League camp as a non roster invitee. They're gonna reach

1270
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 2: a boyn eventually where I think you make a tough

1271
01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:36,080
Speaker 2: call on just saying goodbye to Stallings and bringing up

1272
01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 2: Austin Allen. He's certainly the next man up if either

1273
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:44,840
Speaker 2: Stallings or Fortest gets injured. But I'll talk about more

1274
01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:47,800
Speaker 2: on the podcast. Temper your expectations for him. He's not

1275
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 2: somebody that you want to rush up right now. Is

1276
01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 2: simply he's the next man up. If you want to

1277
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:56,919
Speaker 2: go that route. I wouldn't force him.

1278
01:05:56,880 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 1: Up, though, agreed, because I know all you had for us.

1279
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:04,880
Speaker 1: We lost half a fewers. We'll probably wrap it up

1280
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:11,440
Speaker 1: or I think the he games started. Nope, goat yes, yes,

1281
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 1: let's go Heat, Go Panthers, and we got the We
