1
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: What's up, guys, alas controllers alongside Eli Sussman. Welcome to

2
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,600
Speaker 1: another episode of Marlin's Barbecue. How about those fishli it

3
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 1: feels good. It feels good to see my fish.

4
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 2: They're fighting fish Cake a little bit of ass with

5
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 2: Tredding Water.

6
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 3: We're hurt, but we're fighting. Yeah.

7
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 4: Checking in here on Monday, heading into another long road trip,

8
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 4: and they if you had told me entering the season,

9
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 4: well entering today, that they'd play most of their games

10
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 4: without Starling Marte, they'd play almost half of their games

11
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 4: without Jazz, they'd be playing entirely without six to zero,

12
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 4: without Eliots or Hernandez and all that, and they'd still

13
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,160
Speaker 4: be just three games back of the NL East lead.

14
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 4: I mean, I would take that in a heartbeat. So

15
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 4: all things considered, man, this has been an exciting start

16
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 4: to the season. I think people along the team closely

17
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 4: know that they're playing even better than the record suggests.

18
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 4: We're going to get into that, you know, all these

19
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 4: close games that they've been dropping, But for the most part,

20
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 4: I mean, they look dominant at times. You can really

21
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 4: see like all this talent that got from different directions,

22
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 4: the veterans and the rookies, and those guys in between

23
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,240
Speaker 4: kind of all coalescing around each other to put together

24
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 4: a pretty good team. I think the team's even better

25
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 4: than last year, to be honest with you.

26
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: It's a really exciting team. The energy that they bring

27
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 2: to the field. It's a shame that Jazz got hurt.

28
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 2: I was lucky enough to go to get back to

29
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 2: Miami just in time for the home stand against the

30
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 2: d Backs, and the first thing I did as soon

31
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 2: as I landed in Miami was to go straight.

32
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 3: To Loan Depot Park.

33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 2: All Right, call me crazy, man, but I was craving

34
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 2: some Marlins baseball and with a good way to see

35
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: the guys go on a freaking it was a three

36
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: game win streak in front of me. It was they

37
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 2: won what Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Yeah, and then they lost

38
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 2: Saturday and Sunday. But hey, I'll take the three and

39
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: two record. I was super ampt to see them, the

40
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: energy that was at Marlins Park in general, just going

41
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 2: out there as a fan, leaving the whole experience again.

42
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 3: It felt good to feel the energy, the vibe.

43
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 2: A couple of tweaks at the stadium obviously, you know,

44
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,399
Speaker 2: obviously with all the sanitation and the COVID procedures and everything.

45
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 3: But in general, man.

46
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,519
Speaker 2: It felt great to see the Marlins and be back

47
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: at the depot.

48
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I want you to get into that a

49
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 4: little bit, because we're still just barely a month into

50
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 4: the year and under these new this new reality of

51
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,239
Speaker 4: attending games and hopefully we'll just be for this season

52
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 4: that you know, they got these special precautionary measures before

53
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 4: we can kind of return back to normal next year.

54
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 4: But I mean a lot of people haven't had the

55
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 4: chance to go to games this year just because of

56
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 4: the limited capacity and how early it is in the year,

57
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 4: the fact that they're playing most of their games on

58
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 4: the road. You obviously you went back, you went there.

59
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 4: What you just said, what like five straight days, you

60
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 4: went back and back and back again. So it must

61
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 4: have been a pretty decent setup. Could you just like

62
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 4: walk people through what differences you noticed, and I mean

63
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 4: obviously all kind of worked out, but just to get

64
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 4: people on the same page in case they're already looking

65
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 4: forward to going to a game the next time that

66
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 4: Marlins are back home again.

67
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 2: So I saw that they opened up a new team

68
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,000
Speaker 2: store out there by left field.

69
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 3: It was pretty cool. It was pretty popping.

70
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 2: I saw that there's a lot more advertisement on the

71
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 2: Marlins keep his gaing Breweries, Like all over the stadium.

72
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 2: There's a lot of propaganda obviously because we're now loan

73
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 2: people park to a point where it kind of it

74
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 2: kind of a little bit bothered me because there was

75
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 2: so much loan people parking all the LED on the

76
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 2: LED boards right that I feel like we could have

77
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: used it to put up like some stats. Right, speaking

78
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: of that, like I was, I was there and joying

79
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 2: the game with a few friends, and like, long story short,

80
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 2: a lot of them were asking, Hey, where's this player from?

81
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 3: Right, like wbcl Garcia from the Brewers.

82
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: He was like, he has to be either Cuban or Venezuela,

83
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 2: you know, just because of the IB and I started laughing.

84
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, you know, I believe he's Venezuelan.

85
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: So like you google it and yeah, he's been azoiling great.

86
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 2: So but I was like, one feature that I missed

87
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: back in the day when you put on the scoreboard

88
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 2: where the batter was from. So like I feel like

89
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 2: sometimes we do it, maybe for the Marlins, but what's

90
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 2: up with the with the out of town you know

91
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: what I'm saying out of town players, people ask themselves

92
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: who is this guy? So it's kind of cool to

93
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 2: have that information there. Another thing that I kind of missed.

94
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: Another thing that I kind of missed was.

95
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,919
Speaker 3: The home run, like the I'm sorry the k meters

96
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 3: right they used.

97
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 4: To mention you mentioned that on Twitter about it, the.

98
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Like we got Taylor Trevor Rodgers on the mound, right,

99
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: he's kicking ass, he's getting strikeouts. Everybody's amped up to

100
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 2: see him strike guys out, and you see the fans

101
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 2: standing up and applauding, Like, man, I haven't seen that

102
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 2: culture around period, Like we need to bring that back

103
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 2: to the stadium. Why don't we have it on the

104
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 2: digital boards, Like fans need to know how many strikeouts

105
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 2: we have.

106
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:53,359
Speaker 3: Only the diehards really know.

107
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,799
Speaker 2: Maybe you're following along with the MLB app and that's cool,

108
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 2: but not everybody's doing that.

109
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 3: And I feel like we missed the K action, you

110
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, Like we would put up the k's.

111
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 2: Out in Jose's Heroes out in left field. It's called

112
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 2: the power What is it called now? I don't know

113
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: if it's called the power Alley, what it's called but.

114
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 4: Well it's next to AutoNation Alley. It's kind of good.

115
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know what I'm saying. Why why, why why

116
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 3: don't we bring that culture back?

117
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: I think that's something that the Morland's front office needs

118
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 2: to think about, the marketing team needs to think about,

119
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,480
Speaker 2: and speaking in the marketing I'm sorry that I'm going

120
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 2: on the rent right now, but it was like, yo,

121
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 2: the I went to five games in a row, enjoyed

122
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 2: every single game.

123
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 3: It was worth every single dollar for me.

124
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 2: Right, but one game I went by myself when I

125
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 2: want a few friends, you know what I'm saying. It

126
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: was like a different variety, and I invited my my

127
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 2: friend with the two little girls, and like.

128
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 3: Man, it came out to be like super hefty.

129
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 2: It was like dang, it was like one eighty one

130
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 2: eighty for like five tickets, and I was like, holy cow,

131
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: but we got some great views, right, But it was like,

132
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 2: why isn't it possible for us to maybe lower the prices.

133
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: I know there's some some tickets where maybe ten bucks

134
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: on that home stand, right, they sent ten bucks, but

135
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 2: then they get you with the you know, a process

136
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 2: fee or whatever, and then it turns into twenty three bucks.

137
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

138
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 2: And it's like, all right, so if it's one person,

139
00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 2: it doesn't really bother you. But then you take out

140
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 2: the whole fami and it's like, all right, here's forty bucks,

141
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 2: go get you something, girls, And it's like they come

142
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 2: back with a couple of sodas and two boxes and

143
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 2: candies and then they give you two bucks back.

144
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 3: It's like whoa, you know, so it.

145
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,239
Speaker 2: Kind of adds up if you're bringing your whole family,

146
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 2: and I think we should bring we should bring back

147
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: some more family friendly deals, like the three or five menu.

148
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 3: Is cool, but like I crushed a couple of hot dogs.

149
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna lie, you know.

150
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 2: Uh, I passed on the on the five dollar butter

151
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 2: Wiser because I was enjoying the nice IPAs. I had

152
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 2: the ragatta out there at the Biscayne Brewery.

153
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 4: I heard about that. Yeah, well I'll have to get

154
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,359
Speaker 4: the details on that. I saw them floating it. It sounds

155
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,799
Speaker 4: like a yeah, really really unique blend that they got there.

156
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 4: But just love but just end it. But just take

157
00:06:59,120 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 4: my point real quick.

158
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 2: What I was getting at is like, all right, so

159
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 2: the game starts right, So let's say the ticket's forty

160
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 2: bucks right the game starts.

161
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 3: Why not give the option to let the.

162
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: Fan buy the ticket at a cheaper price, at a

163
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 2: discounted price, Right's instead of it being forty bucks. Now

164
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 2: the game started, it's twenty bucks.

165
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 3: Now, you know what I'm saying, Why not let's get

166
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 3: as many people in the stadium as possible. That's the idea.

167
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: You want people going there, spend money, get the experience,

168
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: and watch Marlins win at the end of the day.

169
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 2: At the end of the day, they went three and two.

170
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: When I went to those five games, and they were

171
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 2: in every single game, and I was proud of them,

172
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 2: and I was proud to enjoy that whole experience. But

173
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 2: it's just like a little rent that I think that

174
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: if we really need to be Huntos Miami, we need

175
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: to think a little bit more about our community, to

176
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 2: think about that pop that's working his ass off for

177
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 2: that mom working at that double shift just to bring

178
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 2: that meal, you know what I'm saying. Like now, it

179
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 2: only turns into I can't take the kids to the

180
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 2: Marlins games more than once a year because it gets

181
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 2: a little pricey.

182
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, I'll have the double checkers once we get

183
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 4: done I think they may be opening up some extra

184
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 4: spots at the highest level of the stadium, in the

185
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 4: upper deck for people that haven't been opened yet for

186
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 4: the next home stand. I'm gonna have to double check

187
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 4: that once we get off though. I don't want to

188
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 4: give people bad information, but they might be opened up

189
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 4: opening up more cheaper spots for this next homestand than

190
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 4: they had currently.

191
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: Just to if we're really gonna go into the whole

192
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 2: ticket thing, Like I bought some tickets out in right field,

193
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 2: and the right field tickets it was its section thirty two.

194
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 2: I think it was maybe it's closer to the right center

195
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 2: or something like that. It was like ten bucks for that.

196
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 2: Then the next day it was like fourteen, and then

197
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 2: they went out to twenty. And then then I got

198
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 2: the bleacher seats up in the three hundreds, section three

199
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 2: three oh five.

200
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeright, so it was.

201
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 2: Like all right, but the section three oh five was

202
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 2: twenty four bones. So anyway, just throwing that out there, man,

203
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 2: not throwing a bland. I'm still happy in my fish.

204
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: I was happy out there. I happily spent my money,

205
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: you know, invested into this team. And check out this

206
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 2: fresh little hat. It's a Mother's Day edition, you know,

207
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 2: for the mother fighting breast cancer awareness and all that

208
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 2: and in general. So shout out to the Marlins man

209
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 2: especially a little hint of pink.

210
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a good transition into one of the

211
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 4: guys wanted to get into in this moment. He's having

212
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 4: his moment right now, Lewis Brinson. He was the one

213
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 4: that he's only one that helped the offense on Mother's Day.

214
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 4: They ended up losing that game in extra endings, but

215
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 4: he hits, no doubt, solo home run. He has three

216
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 4: hits in that game in total. All of a sudden, Man,

217
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 4: he's playing, He's getting in the starting lineup pretty consistently,

218
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 4: and you look at his numbers overall and they're not

219
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,839
Speaker 4: that great, but they're more or less what they were

220
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 4: last year, if not a little bit better. I'm someone

221
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 4: that I've made my opinions on Printon pretty clear that

222
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 4: I just think he's a really limited player and obviously

223
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 4: an incredible guy and someone that has local connections and

224
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 4: people can easily root for. But I've kind of, you know,

225
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 4: gone past the idea of him ever being a significant

226
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 4: piece of this team moving forward. But I just wanted

227
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 4: to hear about you seeing him up close, he had

228
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 4: a really aside from that game, you know, he'd actually

229
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 4: a pretty good week overall, Like for those few games

230
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 4: prior to that. Are you falling in love with Brinson

231
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 4: all over again? How are you feeling about how he's

232
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 4: producing with Marte still out here?

233
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 3: Hey, man, I don't know if I would say falling

234
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 3: in love. Man, I'm not trying to fall into nothing. Man,

235
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying.

236
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: But I'll tell you this about Louis Brinson. He has

237
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 2: had a little bit of a different approach, all right.

238
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 2: He's had a slight spark, you know, so to say

239
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 2: to this lineup and on offense. I was watching him

240
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 2: in person, and I gotta admit, you know, I got

241
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 2: on him a little bit right when right before he

242
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,760
Speaker 2: hit that home run, I was trying so hard to

243
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 2: find the audio, man, but I was just yelling at him.

244
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 3: Like come on.

245
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 2: I was like, come on, Brinson, what do you want

246
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 2: to go back to Jacksonville? And like he took a

247
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 2: terrible swing and I just started yelling.

248
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 3: JOm Bo shrimp, john Bo shrimp, JOm Bo shrimp man.

249
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 2: And then like these little kids like behind me started

250
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 2: chatting jumbo shrimp.

251
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 5: Yo.

252
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 2: So I'm getting like we got momentum, people saying jumbo shrimp,

253
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 2: and Brinson just blast one to center field like an

254
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 2: off speed pitch and it was a curve balls change up.

255
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 3: He drills it to centerfield and he just starts pointing,

256
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 3: like his helmet came out. He starts pouring towards the stands.

257
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 3: I don't know he was pointing at me. He was

258
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 3: punning at the ball.

259
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 2: I don't know who's playing at but I feel like

260
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 2: I live like a little bit of a fire. And

261
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,080
Speaker 2: then that was awesome for him to respond that way,

262
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 2: you know, and like he got into the duggown. He

263
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 2: was amped up, and I was so happy to see

264
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 2: him respond, like I felt like that frustrated, like the

265
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 2: major league fan, come.

266
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,839
Speaker 3: On, well, dang, you stick, you know what I mean.

267
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 5: Like I was like that, and he like responded like

268
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 5: I felt so proud of him, you know what I'm saying.

269
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 2: And then like the next time he came up the bat,

270
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 2: I tried to do it again.

271
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 3: I was like, I bet you can't do it again.

272
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 5: Obviously he did it, but you know what I mean, Like, hey,

273
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:54,439
Speaker 5: hey Brinson, you know.

274
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 3: If you see this.

275
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:57,839
Speaker 2: If you hear this, man, you know what I'm saying,

276
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 2: it's all, you know, just motivational, trying to pump you up, baby,

277
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 2: trying to pump up these fish, and sometimes guys need

278
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,599
Speaker 2: to hear something like that. Everybody has different strategies as managers,

279
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 2: and we can sit here and talk about the saltee,

280
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 2: Like if you talk about the styles, like Don Mattingly,

281
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,560
Speaker 2: what would Don Manley's approach be to like a Lewis

282
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 2: Brinson as compared to maybe like a flamboyant OZI yen right,

283
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 2: maybe Ozzy would be straight blunt. It just goes straight

284
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 2: to and be like listen, man, if you don't fucking hit,

285
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,439
Speaker 2: you're sitting down or you're going back to triple A,

286
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: that's it right. But maddingly we will be more laid

287
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 2: back approach, like come on, sweet, do you got it?

288
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, trying maybe try to stay

289
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 2: back a little bit, you know what I'm saying, Like,

290
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 2: but it's just it's just all all you approach and

291
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 2: knowing how to push those buttons, you know what I'm saying.

292
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: Just like like like Lielo's selling you over there.

293
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,719
Speaker 4: Ha, Yeah, it doesn't look like much. Brinson this year,

294
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 4: he's hitting two forty and that's the number where like

295
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 4: hitting two forty, Who cares? But I mean, baseball is

296
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 4: so crazy this season, all across baseball. The overall batting

297
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 4: average in baseball this year is two thirty four, So

298
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 4: Brinson is above that. That just like speaks to like

299
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 4: how much a whole game is like on its head

300
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 4: this year, and what a weird start it's been that

301
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 4: even Brinson like doesn't look like much, but he's I mean,

302
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 4: that's even better than the MLB average, And honestly, I

303
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 4: think that's even better than the Marlins team average as

304
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 4: a whole. They're just hitting two thirty. The fact that

305
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 4: he's been able to do something is it's been, Yeah,

306
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 4: I mean, it's been a little bit better than last year.

307
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 4: I think you just missed it. That on Tuesday, so

308
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 4: the first game of the home sand was the one

309
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 4: where he had a crazy throw from almost a warning

310
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 4: track in center field that was all the way to

311
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 4: second base, all the money to get Asdrubil Cabrera trying

312
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 4: to stretch a single into a double and his I

313
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 4: think his defense honestly is even better than I've ever

314
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 4: seen it before his arm strength. I can remember, like

315
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 4: pretty vividly early in his career he was like a

316
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 4: fine defensive center fielder, but he didn't really have that

317
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 4: strong and accurate arm, and that's something that I mean,

318
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 4: we've only seen him for a handful of games so

319
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 4: far this year, but it looks like that's a change

320
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 4: that he's made, and so I'm pretty impressed with that

321
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 4: that he contributing in that aspect of the game. But man,

322
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 4: we're still several weeks away to getting Marte back, so

323
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 4: in the meantime, he's gonna be playing a lot. Also

324
00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 4: from that game on Sunday, that game went to extra endings.

325
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 4: They end up losing in tenth. In the tenth on

326
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 4: Anthony Bass, who I thought pitched great for The problem

327
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 4: was that they got these extra ending rules that we

328
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 4: got used to last year where they had the automatic

329
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 4: runner on seconds. Bass makes like one mistake with two

330
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 4: outs and it's a single that ends up scoring that

331
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 4: run that makes the difference. Other than that, I mean,

332
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 4: it was just swinging miss, swinging miss, swing and miss.

333
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 4: Like his stuff was probably better than I'd seen it

334
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 4: all year, and yet he gets tagged with the loss

335
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 4: and they end up losing that game. Overall, this year,

336
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 4: you know, the Marlins have actually won most of their

337
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 4: extra ending games. They're three and two overall, with that

338
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 4: second loss just coming on Sunday. We I mean, we

339
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 4: probably had this conversation last year at some point how

340
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 4: we feel about that rule, But I mean, just to

341
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,160
Speaker 4: check in now, now that we're seeing it over a

342
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 4: full length season, we're gonna have to get used to

343
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 4: it a lot more than we did last year. And

344
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 4: I don't got this team that has higher expectations than

345
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 4: we had last year. So all these games, you know,

346
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,200
Speaker 4: they add up, they're gonna really count at the end

347
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 4: of it. When you have a game, try try to,

348
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 4: you know, take the fan out of it a little

349
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 4: bit where you're not too instead of obsessing over the

350
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 4: fact that the Marlins lost the game, just the fact

351
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 4: that we still have this extra enning rule that like

352
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 4: totally changes the way the game gets played, like in

353
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:28,400
Speaker 4: those most critical moments. In my estimation, I think most

354
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 4: fans are still against it, that they think this gimmick,

355
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 4: it kind of it it's a mistake, and that it

356
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 4: kind of ruins the way that the game should be

357
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 4: decided When everything is on the line in a tie game.

358
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 4: But just to get your take on it, how are

359
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 4: you feeling about this extra runing rule now that we're

360
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 4: seeing it play out for real again?

361
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 3: It sucks when we can't come through with runners. It's

362
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 3: going position. That's really what it comes down to.

363
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 2: It's like who's going to get the clutch base hit

364
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: and who's going to finish the game first?

365
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 3: You know? Yeah, I mean like I missed the essence

366
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 3: of the game. You're getting on base and you know

367
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, get the guy getting the guy over,

368
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 3: you know. But it is what it is, man.

369
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: You got to keep involving with the game, and we

370
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 2: can't really do much about it. Even if MLB fans

371
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 2: didn't want it, Rob Manfred's going to implement it, you

372
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. When they do want it, he

373
00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 2: doesn't implement it, you know what I'm saying. So that's

374
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 2: the type of Rob Manford, that's the type of commission

375
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 2: we got. Shout out to Rob man thanks for listening

376
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 2: to the barbecue.

377
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 3: But you want that.

378
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 2: Only guy that orders his steak well done, Get out

379
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 2: of here, Manfred.

380
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 3: Hey Man, I hope going back to his home stand.

381
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 2: I hope that Louis Brinston can continue to build on

382
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 2: his solid game, build that momentum that maybe we can

383
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 2: eventually fip this guy. We can flip him. Why not, man,

384
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 2: we build some trade value for Bren Diesel. Let's keep

385
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 2: doing it. Isan did a great job. He connected with

386
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 2: that freaking grand Salami. The one time I don't tweet

387
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 2: about if the fish hit a home run right now,

388
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 2: Marley's tat the one time I don't tweet about it

389
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 2: the guy hits the grass, allow me, So maybe I

390
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 2: just don't need a tweet about it. But happy to

391
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 2: see that my guy Eign freaking had it clean slate.

392
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 2: It felt get the tweet, come on East Sign, do

393
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 2: something clean slate baby, and he just unloaded and it

394
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 2: felt good that he hit it. I think it was

395
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 2: a three seventy seven. I think it is out there

396
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 2: to right center.

397
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think it. Correct me if I'm wrong,

398
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 4: but I think that was one of those balls that

399
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 4: it wouldn't have gone out under the old dimensions that

400
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 4: just bring it in a few feet. That made all

401
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 4: the difference, and it like sneaking over the wall, you know,

402
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 4: either way, it's probably like clears the bases it's a

403
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 4: three run double, but the fact that it was a

404
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 4: Grand Slam, I think pretty sure is the first Grand

405
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 4: Slam of his career that I'm pretty grateful that they

406
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 4: had the fences in for that one, because that was

407
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 4: that was huge for him to come through right there.

408
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 2: He probably slept really really good that night, huh.

409
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 4: And we're on the same page with Brinson too, where

410
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 4: I think that's what you hope for, is that. I mean,

411
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,359
Speaker 4: as this year goes on, when Marte gets back, and

412
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 4: then more importantly, when all these other outfielders kind of

413
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 4: break through to the majors. I don't know, I'm sure

414
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 4: you've noticed a little bit. You passed through Jacksonville, the

415
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 4: home with the Jumbo Shrimp, where right now Hayes Sus

416
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 4: Sanchez is kind of running that town. He's with the

417
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 4: hottest hitter in Minor league baseball right now. And we

418
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 4: saw him a little bit in the majors last year,

419
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 4: but I think we'll see a lot more of him

420
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 4: this year. He's tearing it up in Triple A. He's

421
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 4: a guy that once he comes up to the majors,

422
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 4: they want him to get pretty close to regular playing time.

423
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,679
Speaker 4: And he's just got more potential ultimately than Brinston if

424
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 4: he taps into it. JJ Blane is not that far behind.

425
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 4: We hope to see him by the end of the year.

426
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 4: That I mean, you just do the math and there's

427
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 4: just not going to be spots really to play Brinson

428
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 4: that much. Even if you feel he's better than ever,

429
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 4: he still has certain limitations that like these same guys,

430
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,919
Speaker 4: they have that higher ceiling and that higher upside if

431
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 4: they really tap into it. So the best thing you

432
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 4: could hope for is that he plays well and that

433
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 4: as the season goes on they look for an opportunity

434
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 4: to give him a change of scenery too, and maybe

435
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 4: not so much about him, but just as a team,

436
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 4: you know, trying to collect something in return that they

437
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 4: could really use. I don't know exactly what that'd be.

438
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 4: Would probably just be you're talking about some a younger

439
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 4: prospect that helps him sustain this stuff moving forward, that

440
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 4: they just flip him for just a piece of the

441
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 4: future instead of anything that they could plug in immediately

442
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 4: on the major league team. But something is better than nothing,

443
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 4: because my theory is probably know I was pissed off

444
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 4: when they got rid of Harold. They designated Harold Ramirez

445
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 4: for assignment in February, and they ended up getting nothing

446
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 4: in return. And probably the reason why they didn't they

447
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 4: did him over Brinson is that they thought Brinson had

448
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 4: even less value at that time, and they wouldn't. They

449
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 4: didn't want to get rid of Brinston, you know, the

450
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 4: centerpiece of that Yellis trade, and get nothing in return.

451
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 4: They wanted to avoid that pr as long as possible,

452
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 4: give him every chance possible. With Harold, they didn't have

453
00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 4: the same concerns. I mean, he was the guy that

454
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 4: they lucked into that he showed that he could be

455
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 4: a major league hitter but has other limitations in his game.

456
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 4: And when they essentially just chose between those guys because

457
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,840
Speaker 4: there's only so many outfielders that they needed at the

458
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 4: major league level at the time. And now Harold is

459
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 4: doing pretty well in Cleveland, so I mean, sending all

460
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 4: the best to him. But Brentson kind of got that

461
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 4: shot that he didn't necessarily earn it the fact that

462
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 4: he was still with this team entering this season. It

463
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 4: was just the circumstances that he was acquired in that

464
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 4: kind of give him this long leash that seemingly nobody

465
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 4: else has, so if he's around, and I mean, as

466
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 4: it turns out, you know, they did need somebody up

467
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 4: when Marte went down, and they brought him up, and

468
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 4: it's been inconsistent. But right now he's in the middle

469
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 4: of one of those high streets, the high point in

470
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 4: that roller coaster, and just keep it up a little

471
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 4: bit longer. And I think that's his destiny though, is

472
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 4: that he ends up going somewhere else in It's not

473
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 4: maybe two months, maybe three months. It's maybe it's after

474
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 4: the season, but I think, yeah, eventually that I would

475
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 4: expect this to be his final year in the Marlins organization.

476
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,959
Speaker 3: Louis Brinton and the Pirates.

477
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 4: Probably the least desirable place that anybody wants to go

478
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 4: right about now.

479
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 3: It could be worse. He could head to Detroit. Detroit

480
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 3: got Detroit.

481
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 2: Is rough to wopping ten wins major League, Major League

482
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 2: low geez, hey man, let's transition into our freaking starting rotation.

483
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 2: Huh how about that?

484
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean a lot of approaches to take for that.

485
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously, the guy that I put up on

486
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 4: the background, Eliez or Hernandez. I mean, we hope to

487
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 4: learn in the coming days. When his first minor League

488
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 4: rehab assignment is going to come about, and once he

489
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 4: gets started on that, it might only be I think

490
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 4: two stars, you think in the miners in Jacksonville, and

491
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,199
Speaker 4: then he might be back by next weekends, by the

492
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 4: next home stance, Eliezer might be back in the rotation.

493
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 4: A guy that got hurt very first started the season.

494
00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 4: We've been missing him, man, Honestly, you've been even on

495
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 4: that train all along. And there are other people that

496
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 4: didn't really appreciate him before he went out. They thought, uh,

497
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 4: you know, next guy up. We think Nick Knider could

498
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 4: step up. They Daniel Castano could fill the void, Paul Campbell,

499
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,439
Speaker 4: give Paul Campbell a shot. And we know how that go.

500
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 4: I mean with all those guys kind of falling on

501
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 4: their face and it. Yeah, it just makes you appreciate

502
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 4: even though Eliezer is not going to be a star,

503
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 4: and he might not be with this. You're not gonna

504
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 4: look to sign him to a big contract extension. But

505
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 4: he misses bats Man. He's got an incredible slider, he's

506
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 4: got great control. You know, the only thing that stopped

507
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 4: him last year was that injury. And unfortunately, I think

508
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 4: this has kind of been his career history is that

509
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 4: he always gets slowed down by some type of issue.

510
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,040
Speaker 4: But thankfully this one not as severe as it could

511
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,520
Speaker 4: have been. You know the fact that he could still

512
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 4: be back for final three quarters of the season, that's

513
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 4: going to make a huge impact. So I'm sure that

514
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 4: you're as happy as anybody that he's kind of progressing

515
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 4: and getting all of a sudden, you could see the

516
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 4: finish line with him stepping back into the rotation.

517
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, hell yeah, I'm amped up, and so should

518
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 2: all of Marliny's Nation. Like Sandy's been doing a great

519
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 2: job as a teammates, Pablo has been going incredible. That

520
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: Erra sparkling way under one is still way under one.

521
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 2: It's like what point fifty or something like that Rogers

522
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 2: Spectacular Player of the month, you know, like Rookie of

523
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 2: the month.

524
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 3: Dude.

525
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 2: We've been able to do it with three guys right

526
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 2: now in our rotation and the other two two spots

527
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,600
Speaker 2: in rotation have been bullpen piece. It's like you said

528
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 2: it yourself. We had Paul Campbell take the ball, like

529
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 2: what the hell are we doing? Like, you know, like

530
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 2: we talked about, oh, we have all this death like

531
00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 2: we were expecting like a nick Natar, like you said,

532
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 2: like Edward Cabrera, like all these other young guys, and.

533
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 3: I speculate, I can't. I can't recall his name right now. Man.

534
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 3: Maybe it was.

535
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 2: Humberto Mahea that we called up last year, right, And

536
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 2: there was a guy that made a jump from like

537
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 2: double A and he.

538
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 4: Had from not even that high from like hi.

539
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 2: From Yeah, So like this was a guy that he

540
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 2: had a nice cave ball by the way, remember the

541
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 2: nice care all he had.

542
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 3: And the guy came up and he did it.

543
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 2: It was obviously a COVID emergency COVID season, it was

544
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 2: a special occasion whatnot.

545
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 3: But like, I'm surprised Morlans did.

546
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 2: He go one of those moves and call somebody else

547
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 2: else up, like you know, like they.

548
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,640
Speaker 4: Can't call off him because they traded him.

549
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 2: I know, I know, and say I'm sorry I forgot

550
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 2: to say that we traded him away. But what I

551
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 2: was trying to refer at was like, why why didn't

552
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 2: they call somebody from like the lower league, you know,

553
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 2: I know obviously the minor leagues hadn't start till just

554
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 2: recently this week, but it would have been like a

555
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 2: ludicrous option and call somebody from double A or maybe

556
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 2: a single A give him an opportunity. Who do you

557
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 2: think maybe would have had an opportunity. Everybody's so amped up.

558
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 4: I mean, the interesting thing we've seen is like Jordan

559
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 4: Holloway got called up with the injuries and he might

560
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 4: be pitching tonight as recording this, So he's definitely going

561
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 4: to pitch in this upcoming seriously couple days. He hasn't

562
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 4: given up a run yet, but they've been using him

563
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 4: out of the bullpen. The last time out they stretched

564
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 4: him out to three innings. So plant he's a fascinating

565
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 4: guy because because he is someone that I think a

566
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 4: lot of prospect evaluators said that he's ultimately going to

567
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,239
Speaker 4: be a reliever, that he just does not have the

568
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 4: control to be a starter, and he's kind of proving

569
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 4: people wrong because he made some interesting changes to his stuff.

570
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,679
Speaker 4: He had an entirely kind of a new pitch, a

571
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,919
Speaker 4: new slider, a second breaking ball on top of the

572
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 4: great fastball he already had, the great curve ball he

573
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,400
Speaker 4: already had, and that's kind of been like his main

574
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 4: pitch all this year. We've now seen him i think

575
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 4: five times and again going to see him coming up

576
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 4: pretty soon. He's the guy that was exactly in the

577
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 4: same position that Mahia was, and he had never pitched

578
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,399
Speaker 4: above a ball before, above high A. He skipped two

579
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,720
Speaker 4: levels to jump onto this roster, and they can't send

580
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 4: him down because he's getting everybody out because he hasn't

581
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 4: allowed to run yet. They got weird. They got a

582
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 4: very interesting decision to make with him coming up pretty

583
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 4: soon tonight as we're recording this, we're definitely going to

584
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 4: see this new guy they just called up yesterday, Luis Madero.

585
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 4: Louis Madero they picked up in free agency. I mean,

586
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 4: he was someone that used to be a highly regarded

587
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 4: prospect sort of, you know, someone that in the Angels

588
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 4: thought could eventually be factor in the back end of

589
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 4: their rotation. He's he's still only he's even younger than Holloway.

590
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 4: He's only twenty four years old, even though he was

591
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 4: a free agent when they picked him up, and we

592
00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 4: just didn't get to see a whole lot of it.

593
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 4: He only pitched one game in Jacksonville before getting his shot,

594
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,360
Speaker 4: and he's already kind of stretched out, almost stretched out

595
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 4: to be a starter. So he's going to get this

596
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 4: latest opportunity until the rotation fully fills out again. The

597
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 4: one other guy they aside from the ones you've mentioned already,

598
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 4: who missed out a little bit on an opportunity is

599
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 4: George Guzman. I mean George Guzman back in twenty nineteen

600
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 4: when we got the full minor league season. He actually

601
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 4: he pitched more endings than like any other Marlin prospect

602
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 4: that year. So he was a guy that showed his

603
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 4: durability and showed his consistency, and unfortunately he had an

604
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 4: i think an elbow issue in the spring and he

605
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 4: had a little setback, And at this moment he's kind

606
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,679
Speaker 4: of in the same spot as six Do is where

607
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 4: he's throwing again, but he's not even on a minor

608
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,120
Speaker 4: league roster yet. He's still several weeks away, and in fact,

609
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,399
Speaker 4: they just moved him. They transferred him to the long

610
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 4: injured list of sixty day IL, so he's not even

611
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:29,320
Speaker 4: eligible to come up for another few weeks. And I mean,

612
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:30,919
Speaker 4: I guess the last guy that comes to mind is

613
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 4: Braxton Garrett. I mean, we saw him last year. Speaking

614
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 4: of like nasty curve balls, he's got a beautiful curveball

615
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 4: as well, and we saw him for a couple of

616
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 4: starts last season. He was someone that got a little

617
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 4: bit of double A experience at the end of last season.

618
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 4: But I think overall the opinion of the organization is

619
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 4: he needed a little bit more seasoning to start off

620
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 4: this year before they stick him in the rotation right now.

621
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 4: So it's just really inconvenient timing for Garrett where there's

622
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 4: this obvious opportunity for him, but thinking about long term

623
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 4: what's best for him. Eventually, the team is projecting that

624
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 4: he could be like a mid rotation guy hopefully someday

625
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 4: and really make a significant impact if if he spends

626
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 4: like a little bit more time in the minors and

627
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 4: fine tunes what he's got. So he missed out unfortunately

628
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 4: on this opportunity. All this circles back to, though, this

629
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 4: thing that I was kind of pounding the table about

630
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,359
Speaker 4: during the off season. I thought they needed to add

631
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,160
Speaker 4: another veteran starter. I thought they could have. They should

632
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 4: have anticipated having more injuries than usual in a year

633
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 4: like this, right when you're going from a tiny season

634
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,240
Speaker 4: to a full length one that pitchers have never been

635
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 4: through this before, and that inevitably there're gonna be guys

636
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 4: that you miss out because of that, So they signed

637
00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 4: Geo Gonzalez. After months and months of me saying you

638
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 4: got to add somebody, they signed Geo and then you know,

639
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 4: three weeks later he hangs it up and best of

640
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 4: luck to him. They just didn't do anything to replace

641
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 4: him or upgrade over him for that type of, you know,

642
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 4: veteran guy that you could won your rotation. News just

643
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 4: came out today that Annibal Sanchez is going to be

644
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 4: in the coming weeks, but not for a major league team.

645
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,840
Speaker 4: He's gonna be with I think his Venezuelan national team

646
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 4: to help them qualify for the Olympics. So for whatever reason,

647
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 4: the Marlins and no other team made a major league

648
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 4: offer to Honiball, so he's still out there. It's just

649
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 4: those type of guys that they could have potentially looked

650
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 4: at in March, Honiyball and Rick Porcello, or they could

651
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 4: have just been really aggressive trying to make a trade

652
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 4: with another team that was rebuilding, try to acquire our

653
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 4: veteran that way, if you spend a little bit of

654
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 4: money to take on a contract, and they didn't do it.

655
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 4: So honestly, I think that's kind of the bottom line

656
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 4: is they're regretting not listening to me, not going after somebody.

657
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 4: That doesn't mean that that veteran pitcher was going to

658
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 4: be a success, but the fact that they didn't really

659
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 4: try once g overtired. I think we're seeing right now

660
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 4: that it's been a crazy scramble to try to fill

661
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 4: that void.

662
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 3: Come on, Kim, I know you listening. Kim.

663
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 2: Kim's a real one. She likes to stake a medium raw.

664
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 2: Sorry I always say it, I always get that wrong.

665
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 2: It's medium rare. I don't.

666
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,160
Speaker 4: I don't judge people that much. I'm a medium guy,

667
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 4: sometimes a medium, well sometimes a little bit more than medium,

668
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 4: So I don't really judge people based on how they

669
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 4: like it cook. But yeah, I come growing up, growing

670
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,600
Speaker 4: up that was in my household. Medium rare was what

671
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 4: everybody was asking for. So she's that type of woman

672
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 4: for sure.

673
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: Hey man, listen, going back to the whole pinching thing,

674
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 2: I completely agree. We should have definitely got a freaking

675
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,479
Speaker 2: a veteran. Kim dropped the ball. I don't know why

676
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 2: we didn't spend any money.

677
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 4: Well, I want to just don't blame it all on Kim.

678
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 4: I think I'm sure that she wanted to add better players.

679
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 4: I think edny GM wants to add as many good

680
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 4: players as they want. But you know, you need ownership

681
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 4: to buy in too. You need ownership to like sign

682
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 4: off on you spending X amount of money for this picture,

683
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 4: especially if you're a first time GM, very first off season,

684
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 4: coming out of a pandemic. So I think for me,

685
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 4: I think my question go to ownership and how much

686
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 4: they're committed to winning this year.

687
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 2: You know, I just I feel so like terrible, like

688
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 2: no disrespect to Deatwiler, but why the hell we giving

689
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 2: the ball to dead waller?

690
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 3: Go call up Max Meyer. Man, you know what I'm saying.

691
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 2: If this kid had got drafted so high and he's

692
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 2: ready and he's polished, you got manly talking marvels about

693
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 2: him and JJ Blade, Like right now, those are probably

694
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 2: arguably the best prospects right now, and I don't know

695
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 2: who's gonna make it first of the big leagues. And

696
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 2: then they're both like right there, I'm so excited, and

697
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 2: I think JJ bla they might make it first. But

698
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 2: but but that's just because number fifty one is wide

699
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 2: open for him. Now, you know what I'm saying, It

700
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 2: only makes sense shout out to Floro for moving over

701
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 2: to thirty six and doing a good job out of

702
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 2: the bullpen.

703
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 3: But come on, man, why not get the ball? Max Meyer,

704
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 3: Let's do it. Let's rock and roll, dude, Let's rock

705
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 3: and roll, Like.

706
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 2: Let's get these You're saying, let the kids play, let

707
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 2: them develop, Let's let them get banged up.

708
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 3: And they gotta get banged up. And I'm saying not now,

709
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 3: let them get Jordan Yamamoto.

710
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, none of that, But you

711
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, but like slowly but Shereley, Like,

712
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 2: how you doing it with Holloway?

713
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 3: Shout out to Halloway, Halloway.

714
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 2: He kicking ass, baby, keep doing a young boy, young

715
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 2: stud pounding the zone with that freaking fastball. That nice

716
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 2: knuckle curve, bro, that knuckle curve, bro. I haven't seen

717
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 2: such a nice knuckle curve as like the AJ Burnette

718
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 2: days on a Marlin's mouth.

719
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 4: You know who also just came back to the States,

720
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 4: I think just today, Adam Connolly. Adam Connolly was committed

721
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 4: to sign in Japan for this season, but they had

722
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 4: some complications with the like COVID situation over there where

723
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 4: I don't think he's spoken publicly about exactly what the

724
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 4: issue is. But he had like a right to opt

725
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 4: out of his contract if he wasn't happy with the

726
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 4: way that COVID was being handled over there and the

727
00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 4: restrictions being placed on the players. So he never even

728
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 4: pitched in Japan, even though he signed months ago. He

729
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 4: just opted out and he got a minor league deal

730
00:32:56,240 --> 00:33:00,160
Speaker 4: from the Rays, so he is I'm always afraid when

731
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 4: the Rays signed somebody like that, you know, I mean,

732
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 4: the Marlins were through with him, he needed to change

733
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 4: the scenery all that. But when the Rays show interest

734
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 4: in you, it makes me worried. It makes me worry

735
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 4: that they're going to tap into his potential and for

736
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 4: the first time it's going to be uncomfortable to see

737
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:17,400
Speaker 4: him in their uniform. It's a minor league deal, you know.

738
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 4: He's not up there yet. He still needs to actually

739
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 4: work on some things and get adjusted to the situation.

740
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 4: But Adam Conley back in the US and potentially we

741
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 4: may see him later this season.

742
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 2: Oh man, I already see it now, Man, Adam Conley

743
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 2: freaking all.

744
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 3: Sorry for the rais. Let me go get a beer.

745
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,200

768
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 4: mean you shouted them out, Sandy and Pablo and Trevor

769
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 4: that they've been kind of I mean, we had high

770
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 4: expectations for all those guys, especially for Sandy and Pablo

771
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,880
Speaker 4: after seeing what they did last year, and all of

772
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 4: them are I mean, they're better, man. It's it's really

773
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 4: fantastic that all of them are even better than we

774
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 4: saw last year, making subtle improvements.

775
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 3: You know.

776
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 4: Sandy has this change up that all of a sudden

777
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 4: he trusted as much as anything else, and he's getting

778
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 4: all these batters to look silly swinging at it. Pablo

779
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,439
Speaker 4: is just it's even more than what we saw last year.

780
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 4: Like he's he's just so consistent with his stuff. He

781
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 4: makes his adjustments from game to game. He and he

782
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 4: has I mean, he's allowing even fewer runs than Sandy

783
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 4: is to this point of the year. Trevor is the

784
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 4: one the NL Rookie of the month that he I mean,

785
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 4: his raw stuff is like right up there with Sandy's,

786
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,879
Speaker 4: except it comes from the left side. He's he's even

787
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 4: taller than Sandy is, and he creates that like uncomfortable

788
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 4: arm angle too, that hitters haven't figured out yet, and

789
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 4: I mean he is. He's every bit as deserving of

790
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 4: being that Rookie of the month. And they probably have

791
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 4: plans to like trying to manage Trevor's ennings. This is

792
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 4: his first like full major league season. They want to

793
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 4: be careful with him. He's just making it. He's making

794
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 4: it very clear that he is not slowing down anytime soon,

795
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 4: and he wants to go for that Rookie of the

796
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 4: Year award. He wants to go for an All Star selection.

797
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 4: He wants to go for everything in his first full year,

798
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 4: only twenty three years old, Trevor, I mean Pablo twenty

799
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:30,839
Speaker 4: five and Sandy twenty five. That I mean, no matter

800
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 4: what your expectations were for these three, they are kind

801
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 4: of blowing past them so far. And they've been They've

802
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 4: been needed, you know, they've needed every bit of those

803
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 4: guys to stay around in this current playoff race.

804
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 3: I think that's the whole beauty of this Marlins rotation.

805
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 3: Like you said to.

806
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 2: Yourself, Sandy, Pablo kicking ass Rogers doing what he's doing

807
00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 2: as a rookie.

808
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 3: The electricity's bringing on the mound it's so great to see.

809
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 2: Like right now, you look at the Marlins rotation as

810
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 2: a whole to everybody in Major League Baseball, we have

811
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,759
Speaker 2: a three sixteen e er three sixteen our e er.

812
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 3: Man, that's pretty damn good.

813
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 2: In two hundred and ninety three and two thirds of

814
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 2: an inning, they have two hundred and ninety five strikeouts.

815
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 2: That says a lot. You know what I'm saying, that's

816
00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,760
Speaker 2: that's only three of these guys. You know, they're adding

817
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,440
Speaker 2: the little numbers here and there with all the relievers

818
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 2: in that, But I'm.

819
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 3: Talking about these starting three.

820
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 2: Like, once we get Lilo back, once we get six

821
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 2: though back, like once we get the health back on

822
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 2: our side, on the fish side, the season's gonna get

823
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 2: so much more exciting because you know Sixto is gonna

824
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 2: bring it. You know, Lelo's gonna bring it. You know

825
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 2: Lelo's interest to get back on the mound. You know Rogers,

826
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 2: can he keep it up?

827
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 3: Can he really go.

828
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 2: And freaking win another Rookie of the Year Award for

829
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 2: the Marlins organization. Why the hell not everybody who's betting

830
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 2: on six though everybody's betting on Jazz, anything can really

831
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 2: happen like, the Marlands got three players right now they

832
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 2: have like a legitimate shot at winning it, and six

833
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,839
Speaker 2: hasn't even started the season, so go figure. You know,

834
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 2: it feels damn good to talk about these Miami Marlins.

835
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,919
Speaker 2: And I got to confess, man, while we were playing

836
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 2: the Brewers, I tried every single time I could to

837
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 2: put the Brewers broadcast just to listen to Bob Youuger

838
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 2: talk about the Marlins.

839
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:16,359
Speaker 3: How cool is that?

840
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, the guy from Major League

841
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 2: Baseball talking about your favorite baseball team. And this one

842
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 2: phrase he said, the Marlins had like an offensive outburst,

843
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,880
Speaker 2: and he was like, well, the Marlins just sitting you know,

844
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 2: they got a triple single, double home run. Well really

845
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 2: the Marlins have done at all, you know, And I

846
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,440
Speaker 2: was just like, yeah, man, I love that, and it

847
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 2: feels good that other teams are recognizing that the Marlins

848
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 2: are playing good baseball.

849
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,319
Speaker 3: Shout out to Michueil Rojas, who's done a hell of

850
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 3: a job.

851
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 2: But I remember the second game the series that I

852
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 2: went to, I was looking at his average.

853
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 3: I was too impressed. You know, it was in like

854
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 3: the two sixties.

855
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 2: It was okay, right, And then he just went on

856
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 2: a tear and then I tweeted and it was like,

857
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 2: all right, he was batting like two nineties. I don't

858
00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:59,160
Speaker 2: know what he's betting now, but he's like two eighty

859
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 2: two ninety and he's doing a hell of a job.

860
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 4: Soon.

861
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 2: Shoutout to Mickey Rowe for leading the squad, you know,

862
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 2: on the field with the bat.

863
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,000
Speaker 3: He meant a hell of a dobby play with his glove.

864
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 3: You know, it feels really good to see him.

865
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 2: I think he short changed himself one time when he

866
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 2: said the players that he can compare himself to or

867
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 2: that he admired were Marco Scuderou, Scuodou, remember another Venezuelan.

868
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,600
Speaker 2: I think Miguel roll has has the highest ceiling. Bro

869
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 2: Like it's there. He's really tapping into it. He's going

870
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 2: super same mode and let's just do it. Let's turn

871
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 2: it up.

872
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:36,359
Speaker 4: Yeah. I know, I saw so many smart people that

873
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 4: I respect saying that after what he did last year.

874
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 4: I mean last year was incredible that they saw him

875
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,360
Speaker 4: as he was going to come down to earth, that

876
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 4: he was an obvious regression candidate, that he could not

877
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 4: keep it up. Adding everything like just his age, but

878
00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:55,400
Speaker 4: his history Prior to twenty twenty, you just look, you

879
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 4: dive into the numbers, and it just didn't look like

880
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 4: he was doing anything special. And I don't think if

881
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 4: people don't watch him every day, they don't really realize

882
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 4: how it is that he gets it done. And he's

883
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 4: doing almost the exact same thing this year. It's almost

884
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,879
Speaker 4: at that same incredible level that it was last year,

885
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 4: and obviously the big question is going to be whether

886
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 4: he could keep it up. One of my bold predictions

887
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 4: beginning this year was that by the end of the

888
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 4: year he might not be an everyday player, that I

889
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 4: think Jazz could bump him off a shortstop and potentially

890
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,799
Speaker 4: they might have Isan and Jazz as the regular guys

891
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,719
Speaker 4: up the middle and MIGGI just plugging holes wherever he can.

892
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 4: But Miggy didn't necessarily agree with that. Obviously, that he's

893
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,359
Speaker 4: now been one of the best players on the team

894
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,239
Speaker 4: in this early going, he's been doing it so much

895
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 4: respect for him because he's not a guy that was

896
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 4: kind of blessed with having this really strong and durable

897
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 4: body like you could see him. He picks up all

898
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 4: these minor injuries and he just plays through them as

899
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,120
Speaker 4: best he can. You know, he couldn't play through COVID

900
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 4: last year. They didn't let him play through COVID. He

901
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 4: kind of wanted to. I'm sure he's the guy that

902
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 4: wants to play through everything and under other circumstances. Earlier

903
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 4: this month, I guess it was at the end of

904
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,720
Speaker 4: April that if Jazz was healthy, if Marte was healthy,

905
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 4: maybe he would have been a guy that gets a

906
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,360
Speaker 4: few days of rest to heal up. What. You know,

907
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:12,880
Speaker 4: he had an issue with his hit. I think he

908
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 4: had some soreness in his forearm or his elbow. He

909
00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 4: could seem like getting treatment for it during the game

910
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 4: and after the game. It's just that he understands that

911
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 4: he's got a responsibility to this team and he has

912
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,280
Speaker 4: a belief in himself that he could put this stuff

913
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 4: in the back of his mind and once the game

914
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 4: is going on, he can still perform at the highest

915
00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 4: level possible even with these These are real excuses for

916
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 4: other players that in other situations, these guys get sat down,

917
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 4: they really get taken care of. But with him, he's

918
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 4: just so important to the team all in the fields,

919
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 4: especially right now that he's grinding through it. Man, I

920
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 4: want to give a shout out to Jeremy tashe who

921
00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 4: for this season aside from Swings and Misses, he's working

922
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,760
Speaker 4: with Ballet Sports Florida and he recently floated the idea

923
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 4: of calling Miggy your Marlin as a riff on on

924
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 4: mister Marlin, given the Venezuelan twist on that. How much

925
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:11,319
Speaker 4: how much consideration are we giving to that nickname? For

926
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 4: me personally, I think miggi row is just fine. I

927
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 4: don't think you need to really draw upon that like

928
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 4: historical example. I don't think you want to. You want

929
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 4: to be more original. And but that was when he

930
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 4: floated out there, and I think Viggie took notice of

931
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,280
Speaker 4: it too. But what do we think about signor Marlin

932
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:28,360
Speaker 4: is a nickname?

933
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,279
Speaker 2: I mean, it sounds it sounds cool, you know what

934
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 2: I'm saying, and Miggy you can argue that he's earned that.

935
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 2: And I was like, I remember when I first listened

936
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,080
Speaker 2: to it, and I was sitting here, I was like thinking,

937
00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 2: I was like Sor and Marlin and I'm thinking Senor

938
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,440
Speaker 2: Rojas and I was like, yeah, it sounds cool, Senor

939
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 2: Rojas and I'm like, no, wait, a bitte is Senor?

940
00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 2: So I don't know if it's gonna stick or I

941
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,479
Speaker 2: I'm cool with the MIGGI migy row like you're saying too,

942
00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,800
Speaker 2: And I think he's got a at least being a

943
00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 2: championship if you're gonna.

944
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 3: Do all that.

945
00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean as much as we appreciate what now,

946
00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:08,920
Speaker 4: it's just yeah, the overall body of work, it's not

947
00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 4: yet on the same level.

948
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:15,440
Speaker 2: We could call him senor sneakers sneaker Marlin, senor sneaker Marlin.

949
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he was like that. He takes a

950
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:22,239
Speaker 4: lot of pride in what he on his footwear for sure.

951
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 3: Speaking of foots and footsteps. I'm gonna go out and

952
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:27,879
Speaker 3: live here. I'm gonna go on a rant.

953
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 2: I need the Marlins to turn it up on the

954
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 2: freaking bass pass.

955
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 3: Dude, How is it.

956
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 2: Possible for us to be getting picked off so many freaking.

957
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 3: Times at first base?

958
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:39,719
Speaker 2: I don't I don't have the exact I don't know

959
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 2: if there's a stat that we can look up a pickoffs,

960
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:43,759
Speaker 2: But the stat that I was able to find was

961
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 2: cost ceiling. Marlins been cost stealing six times, all right,

962
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,879
Speaker 2: those six times. Corey Dickerson has been picked off three

963
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 2: times all right, John Birdie, Monte Harrison. It's like, come on,

964
00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,879
Speaker 2: my guys, Miguel Rojas, Marte, you know what I'm saying,

965
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 2: Like each of those I can understand guys having one,

966
00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,400
Speaker 2: I just slide with one, but when you have three two.

967
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,279
Speaker 3: You need to concentrate more on base to what are

968
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 3: you thinking about.

969
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:12,239
Speaker 4: I got the stat for you. I got this SAT

970
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 4: This year, they've been picked off six times as a team,

971
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,879
Speaker 4: and that's tied for the most in baseball yea, more

972
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:19,840
Speaker 4: than any other team in the National League.

973
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,320
Speaker 3: And and what's crazy was Eli, Like, it's so crazy.

974
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 2: I'm watching the game and I'm like, yo, Marlins just

975
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 2: need to do a better job getting a better lead.

976
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 2: Like they just look so suspect at first, and right

977
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:34,719
Speaker 2: when I'm saying boom picked off, Like bro, it's like

978
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:38,040
Speaker 2: they're listening to us. It's not just Syrian our smartphones,

979
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 2: you know, Like, dude, it was really crazy and it

980
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,359
Speaker 2: was frustrating at the same time, Like and it's kind

981
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 2: of thrown out a flag, Like you know, if we

982
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 2: if we're struggling with runners in scoring position and we're

983
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:54,279
Speaker 2: struggling to try to keep guys on base, it's we're

984
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,319
Speaker 2: not helping the cars when we're getting picked off. So

985
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 2: I don't know who who's in charge of that, but

986
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 2: we need a you need to work a little bit

987
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,239
Speaker 2: more on that fish. That's my only rant on that

988
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 2: transitioning into good spirits, you know, shout out to Hazus

989
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:13,399
Speaker 2: saggy Lar. I remember the bullpen game and Halloway came

990
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 2: in after he was a second reliever in the game,

991
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:18,799
Speaker 2: and I think it was maybe somewhere around the fifth inning,

992
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:24,799
Speaker 2: fifth fifth or seventh inning, and Halloway made a nice

993
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 2: pitch and it was a single towards the right side

994
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 2: past the first basement. Hazu Sagu right, if Jesus would

995
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 2: have dope for it, he would have caught the ball.

996
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 2: I think you would definitely caught the ball. I'm sitting

997
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 2: there by first base and I'm like, oh, moless, you

998
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, which basically he's like, come on, hey, suits,

999
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 2: you gotta die for that.

1000
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 5: And like his face was like really dog like he

1001
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,400
Speaker 5: did this. He took off the glove and he like

1002
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:50,680
Speaker 5: pointed it towards me and.

1003
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 3: He was like, you want to play? And I think

1004
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 3: I think I pushed a button in the sense like

1005
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:59,359
Speaker 3: he thought about it. It was like I would have doped.

1006
00:45:59,440 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 3: That's what I was.

1007
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,440
Speaker 5: I would have done after he did the whole gloved thing.

1008
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 5: I would have doe for it, you know what I'm saying,

1009
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 5: Like I would at least try it.

1010
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,440
Speaker 2: And I was a little bit bummed out about it

1011
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:12,719
Speaker 2: because I was I was being overly optimistic, a little

1012
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:13,239
Speaker 2: bit of a homer.

1013
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:15,399
Speaker 3: I was like, what the hell is a bullpen game?

1014
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:18,879
Speaker 2: When's the last time somebody threw a combined No, No,

1015
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 2: let's do it with fish. And then I was kind

1016
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 2: of short chance because I felt like, dang, Hollywood was

1017
00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:24,160
Speaker 2: fishing is so good?

1018
00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 3: And then hey's little fan, Yeah.

1019
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 4: I remember that play. I remember for sure that. Yeah,

1020
00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 4: that's one like limitation in his game. Sometimes he's giving

1021
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 4: this all out effort, but he's got some Yeah, even

1022
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,879
Speaker 4: with the diet slimming down a little bit, there's still

1023
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 4: some things that he can't quite get to as much

1024
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 4: as other players. But you live with it. You live

1025
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 4: with him because his bad. They're going back on the

1026
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 4: road right now, and the last time they were on

1027
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:54,759
Speaker 4: the road, he was the one that carried them on

1028
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 4: that trip. He had six home runs in one road trip.

1029
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,040
Speaker 4: I don't know if he's gonna do that again, but

1030
00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 4: they're gonna need a few of those to keep them,

1031
00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 4: to make sure that this road ship so keeps them

1032
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,160
Speaker 4: in the mix. And he's been huge for that. I mean,

1033
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,440
Speaker 4: he kind of very quietly, he's just changed as a

1034
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 4: hitter because people remember him. He still looks the same

1035
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 4: as he did a few years ago with the Brewers

1036
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 4: when he was hitting thirty six home runs and he

1037
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 4: was an All Star. I don't think he's gonna hit

1038
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 4: home runs that consistently for a whole season. He's kind

1039
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 4: of changed a little bit where he just he knows

1040
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:31,120
Speaker 4: the strike zone better than ever before. His discipline in

1041
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,160
Speaker 4: the zone is better than he used to be, and

1042
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 4: he is just so good at situational hitting and putting

1043
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,520
Speaker 4: the bat on the ball that even when he's not

1044
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,239
Speaker 4: hitting it out, he's making those really key plays to

1045
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 4: move runners along. I mean, as we're recording, is he's

1046
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 4: still leaving the National League in RBIs If not, he's

1047
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:50,879
Speaker 4: awfully close to that just because of what he does,

1048
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,839
Speaker 4: like no matter what the situation is, that he makes

1049
00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:56,759
Speaker 4: adjustments to that. And I mean, this is a guy

1050
00:47:56,840 --> 00:48:00,320
Speaker 4: that I don't remember that the Marlins got him because

1051
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:02,000
Speaker 4: the Rays cut him loose. If it seemed like the

1052
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 4: Rays didn't think that he had anything left to give.

1053
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,399
Speaker 4: I don't even think the Rays were totally wrong about that.

1054
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 4: Like they saw the guy he was in twenty nineteen

1055
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,320
Speaker 4: and they thought he was kind of out of juice

1056
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 4: for the type of player that he was. And to

1057
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:17,840
Speaker 4: his credit, the reason why he's not just making changes

1058
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 4: to his body. He's made some changes to that, but

1059
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 4: just the changes in his approach. He keeps working on

1060
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,719
Speaker 4: his craft, so he kind of you don't really his

1061
00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 4: personality doesn't give that off. He seems like such a

1062
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:30,840
Speaker 4: laid back guy and such a casual guy that every

1063
00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 4: man you want to feel he's so easy to relate to.

1064
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:35,800
Speaker 4: But he puts in the work too, and he puts

1065
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:39,040
Speaker 4: in he really studies his craft to continue getting better.

1066
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,920
Speaker 4: The Marlins looks so it looks so smart for picking

1067
00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 4: him up, and I don't know how long he's going

1068
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:47,120
Speaker 4: to stay with organization. They got these another prospects in

1069
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:49,799
Speaker 4: the pipeline and Leywin Diaz, and I'm really high on him.

1070
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 4: We know Garret Koper can play first base if need be,

1071
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:57,480
Speaker 4: but but Aguilar has been he has been so worth

1072
00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 4: the money, worth so much more than the money that

1073
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 4: they've been given him last year and even more so

1074
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 4: so far this year.

1075
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's currently tied with Hobby Baiaz in the National

1076
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 2: League with twenty five runs batted in. Shout out to

1077
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 2: Hayesu's baby. I pas over a rugula or is it

1078
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:14,400
Speaker 2: a rugulo for a rip I forget?

1079
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:19,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, he kind of did a reversal during the off season.

1080
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,919
Speaker 4: It was the rugula first and then yeah, switching back

1081
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 4: to what makes him happy.

1082
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:25,600
Speaker 3: He's just he just he.

1083
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 2: Just has such a positive energy, such a happy, go

1084
00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 2: jolly guy on the field, like you see him in person,

1085
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 2: like you can see it on TV, you know when

1086
00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 2: the camera captures it, but you see him the whole time.

1087
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 3: You keep your eyes on him.

1088
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 2: He's always like busting balls, laughing with the umpire and

1089
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 2: the catch and the pitcher, the opposite team, like the bench.

1090
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 3: Guys, whoever.

1091
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 2: Like he's always he's he's heckling with the fans like it.

1092
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:49,200
Speaker 3: That's it's a good It's the way you see him

1093
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 3: play man the weak, the way he's.

1094
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:53,440
Speaker 2: So comfortable being in the Miami Marlins organization. Says a

1095
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 2: lot and it's translating onto the field. So shout out

1096
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,760
Speaker 2: to Zeus Hagar, Shout out to the Marlins front office

1097
00:49:58,800 --> 00:49:59,799
Speaker 2: for that nice scoop up.

1098
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:02,360
Speaker 3: I talked about this. I was zamped up when he

1099
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:03,720
Speaker 3: came over from.

1100
00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 2: The Rays because I knew that when he was in

1101
00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 2: Milwaukee he had a beast season and when he got

1102
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,719
Speaker 2: to Tampa he was a little bit, you know, flustered

1103
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 2: at of gas.

1104
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:16,040
Speaker 3: He played in the winter leagues in Venezuela.

1105
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,560
Speaker 2: He talked about it himself, and I knew, like when

1106
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 2: he came over to the Marlins, he didn't play winning

1107
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:26,960
Speaker 2: league that year, and he was ready to recharge the batteries,

1108
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,279
Speaker 2: so to speak, and come back one hundred percent. And

1109
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 2: I think this is the hazusak Ela at the Marlins

1110
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:33,960
Speaker 2: knew that they were gonna sign, and I'm thrilled that

1111
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 2: we have this guy right now being the leader in

1112
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 2: the clubhouse, leader in the lineup. He's got twenty five

1113
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:44,440
Speaker 2: RBIs leading National League the Morlands as well, and right

1114
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:46,680
Speaker 2: behind him is only Adam Duval. I think Duval has

1115
00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:49,600
Speaker 2: twenty one twenty one runs batted in for the Marlins.

1116
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 2: After that man, everybody else is like ten RBIs behind.

1117
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,760
Speaker 2: So that tells you about that big ass series Daval

1118
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 2: had against the Braves when he.

1119
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 3: Came back and he went off, and he's starting to

1120
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:02,959
Speaker 3: stroke the ball.

1121
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:04,720
Speaker 2: Bro the wait with the way he's hitting the ball,

1122
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 2: even the ouse he's getting Like he hit one.

1123
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:10,439
Speaker 3: During one of the many games that I was able

1124
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:13,439
Speaker 3: to watch at Loan Depot Park. It was so great

1125
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:15,000
Speaker 3: to see the game up close together. Man.

1126
00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 2: But when he drilled that ball over at the short

1127
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,920
Speaker 2: stop and made a weird hop, Dude, he drilled that

1128
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,560
Speaker 2: he hit it over like like I think it was

1129
00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 2: like over ninety five miles an hour.

1130
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:25,359
Speaker 3: So like that's telling you that the guy's stroking it.

1131
00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:28,719
Speaker 2: He's not on the John Carlo stratosphere of it, but

1132
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 2: damn he's doing a pretty good job.

1133
00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 3: And you can tell when guys are starting to rip

1134
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:31,839
Speaker 3: the ball.

1135
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:34,080
Speaker 2: Good shout out to the to the catchers that have

1136
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 2: been able to keep it together, Chad Wallach and Sandy Leone.

1137
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 2: They haven't been able to do much offensively, but damn,

1138
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:41,800
Speaker 2: Sandy's given us something at least with the rotation.

1139
00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,400
Speaker 3: And while he's at least been the.

1140
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:47,400
Speaker 4: Very first game that Sandy played, he got two hits

1141
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 4: or three hits in that very first game and since then,

1142
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 4: Oh boy, I mean, I think entering this game, he's

1143
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 4: like one for his last twenty two. You know, he's

1144
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:56,839
Speaker 4: he's kind of ea. It is what he is.

1145
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 3: He is what he is.

1146
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 4: He's been filling the gap. Alfarro do back by the

1147
00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:02,680
Speaker 4: end of this week. By the end of this weekend.

1148
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 4: He just needs to get into a couple of rehab games,

1149
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 4: make sure he's able to catch, make sure he's able

1150
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 4: to run out of the box with his hamstring. But

1151
00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 4: he'll be back soon, and then we'll see what they do.

1152
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,799
Speaker 4: They either have to send down Wallach because they could

1153
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,800
Speaker 4: do that, they could actually send him to Triple A,

1154
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:21,359
Speaker 4: or they got to potentially put Sandy on waivers where

1155
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:24,040
Speaker 4: maybe you'll probably get through waivers. It probably gets to

1156
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 4: keep him either way, but that'll be an interesting decision

1157
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 4: because they got to keep one of those guys on

1158
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 4: the roster, and it'll be I'm not sure how you

1159
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:33,239
Speaker 4: choose between them, because all of them they do some

1160
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 4: good and they have a lot of limitations as well.

1161
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:39,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would, I personally like if if it comes

1162
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 2: down to the options and the wild he's got an

1163
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 2: option that you can send them down without the chance

1164
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:47,560
Speaker 2: of losing them and send them down.

1165
00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. I know that you have

1166
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,000
Speaker 3: Sandy up here, and then if you have I guess

1167
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 3: it goes to waivers.

1168
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 2: There's a slight chance that you might lose them, and

1169
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:56,400
Speaker 2: you really don't want to give yourself a luxury of

1170
00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,839
Speaker 2: losing another catcher right now, which we don't really have

1171
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 2: because if something happens so far or Wally who we

1172
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 2: can call up Banfield, We're gonna rush him up, you

1173
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:05,600
Speaker 2: know what I mean.

1174
00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,520
Speaker 4: So, Brian, Brian Nafarreto is off to a really hot

1175
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:09,919
Speaker 4: start in Jacksonville.

1176
00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,240
Speaker 3: Hot start rapping. He's always rapping.

1177
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:15,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey q QQ the rap baby, cue the rap.

1178
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 4: He's yeah, he's a he's a fun guy. He's a

1179
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,919
Speaker 4: new father, to shout out to him. He was away

1180
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,880
Speaker 4: from the team for a little bit this spring, welcoming

1181
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:28,359
Speaker 4: I think his first child, So congrats to him. And

1182
00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 4: he's got daddy strength. He's he's hit a couple of

1183
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:34,839
Speaker 4: home runs already in Jacksonville. But his defense is more

1184
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 4: of a big question compared to those other guys. I mean,

1185
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,640
Speaker 4: he's the Yeah, he's not another guy. He's probably the

1186
00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:44,200
Speaker 4: fourth guy in the catcher equation. It's a long season,

1187
00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:47,040
Speaker 4: you know. Unfortunately, catcher is a position where it lends

1188
00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 4: itself to injuries, so you sometimes you in most cases,

1189
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 4: you need four catchers to make it through the full season.

1190
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:56,800
Speaker 4: He talk without COVID concerns and all that, just normal injuries.

1191
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 4: He has a tough position.

1192
00:53:58,160 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 3: Okay, man, give me the scoop.

1193
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 2: What do we know about Gisardo Just Rotto, just Roto

1194
00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:10,839
Speaker 2: or miss Arrington Chisholm Junior aka jazz Baby, the blue

1195
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,319
Speaker 2: haired guy. Speaking of the blue hair dude, why are

1196
00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:14,320
Speaker 2: we selling hats.

1197
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:15,280
Speaker 3: With blue hairs on him?

1198
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 2: We need to say black hats with blue hair on

1199
00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:20,840
Speaker 2: him at Marlin's Park or at fashtripes dot com or

1200
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 2: something like that, so the freaking fans can rock out

1201
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,440
Speaker 2: that jazz chism hair jazz.

1202
00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:28,840
Speaker 3: We need you back, baby, Baby, come back.

1203
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 4: You know who brought that. Red Garcia brought that up

1204
00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:34,879
Speaker 4: just a few days ago. He said, you know, that's

1205
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 4: what's missing. He was at he was at one of

1206
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:37,840
Speaker 4: those games too. I think I think he was at

1207
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 4: one of the games this past week and he said,

1208
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,560
Speaker 4: you know, they're missing something here. They're not doing quite enough.

1209
00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:45,680
Speaker 4: With all these likable players they have, and I mean

1210
00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:47,880
Speaker 4: Jazz is at the top of that list. When he's healthy,

1211
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:49,759
Speaker 4: and he's almost healthy, you know, he's on the same

1212
00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,080
Speaker 4: track as Alfarro. We'll be seeing him by the time

1213
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:54,040
Speaker 4: the team comes home again. We'll probably see him by

1214
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:57,240
Speaker 4: the end of this weekend. If his quick rehab goes fine.

1215
00:54:57,880 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 4: That yeah, they need to do more. I mean his

1216
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,920
Speaker 4: hard to find a Jazz Chism jersey to buy if

1217
00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 4: you want to support him that way. That that's something

1218
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:08,200
Speaker 4: coming up on the pod I want to be sure

1219
00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:09,799
Speaker 4: to get. I want to get some answers to that

1220
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:12,399
Speaker 4: from the from the team or from a Fanatics because

1221
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:17,240
Speaker 4: the Fanatics is like their official, uh like merchandise apparel partner.

1222
00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:19,440
Speaker 4: That we want to get some answers as to why

1223
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 4: it's so hard to get stuff for like the best

1224
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:24,680
Speaker 4: players on the team. It's pretty easy to get like

1225
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 4: a Jose Urania jersey from last year. It's pretty easy

1226
00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,480
Speaker 4: to get a Lewis Prinson. No offense to Prinson, but

1227
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:37,480
Speaker 4: the same status, not the same status to some of

1228
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 4: these other guys. But so that that's something to that's

1229
00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 4: a teaser that just the people that know, because I've

1230
00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:45,440
Speaker 4: gotten that question from more than a few people about

1231
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 4: what's going on with the merch situation and making sure

1232
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 4: we're promoting these young stars that I'll try to get

1233
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:52,000
Speaker 4: some answers on that.

1234
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:52,959
Speaker 3: That's all I'm talking about.

1235
00:55:52,960 --> 00:56:03,240
Speaker 2: Maybe Eli Sussman going down, Detective Sussment, Baby.

1236
00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 3: All right, man, talk to me about this road trip

1237
00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:03,800
Speaker 3: series and we'll bounce.

1238
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:09,160
Speaker 2: We'll get out of here. We got the bags Dodge

1239
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:12,040
Speaker 2: Gas ten games. Talk to me, what do you expect?

1240
00:56:12,080 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 2: Four games against the d Backs were taken? How many

1241
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:15,200
Speaker 2: are we taken?

1242
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:16,320
Speaker 3: Well?

1243
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,160
Speaker 4: I mean, the d Backs come into this, they've been

1244
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,960
Speaker 4: terrible lately. They've lost what six in a row. Like

1245
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:23,759
Speaker 4: the Marlins are the ones that kind of sent them

1246
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:26,239
Speaker 4: on a downward spiral. They were as of this time

1247
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,280
Speaker 4: a week ago, they were one of the best offensive

1248
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:31,359
Speaker 4: teams in baseball, and all that has kind of been

1249
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,640
Speaker 4: crashing down because they're missing their best player, Katel Marte,

1250
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:38,680
Speaker 4: And honestly, their second best player right now is probably

1251
00:56:38,800 --> 00:56:41,080
Speaker 4: our old friend Zach Gallen, and he's going through a

1252
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:43,640
Speaker 4: little bit of a cold stretch. So that's gonna be

1253
00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 4: the key that I don't think the Marlins will sweep

1254
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:47,719
Speaker 4: the d Backs but they have a good opportunity to

1255
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:51,240
Speaker 4: win the series if Zach Gallon continues to really struggle

1256
00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:55,200
Speaker 4: with his location. He's been he hasn't been quite the

1257
00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,520
Speaker 4: same as he was last season when he had a

1258
00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:00,520
Speaker 4: big breakout for them during the shortened season. So that

1259
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:02,399
Speaker 4: game will be keyy. I can't wait for that. That's

1260
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:06,040
Speaker 4: going to be the Wednesday game. The matchup between Zach

1261
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,719
Speaker 4: Gallon and Trevor Rodgers. You think more than a few

1262
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,440
Speaker 4: people are going to be interested in seeing that or

1263
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:12,239
Speaker 4: do I have that right?

1264
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:14,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have that right, You have that right.

1265
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:18,200
Speaker 4: So that's going to be an incredible matchup to see.

1266
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:20,640
Speaker 4: But I mean, honestly, there's a lot of similarities between

1267
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 4: these teams and the challenges they have. The Marlins are

1268
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:25,560
Speaker 4: better right now even with their injuries. Like you just

1269
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 4: feel so confident about those guys we mentioned in the rotation,

1270
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 4: aside from Sandy's not going to be in this series,

1271
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 4: but we'll see both Pablo in this first game and

1272
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:36,960
Speaker 4: then Trevor coming up. Then those two question marks for

1273
00:57:37,040 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 4: these other games where they don't really have a starting pitcher,

1274
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 4: that at least for them for both those games with

1275
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 4: Pablo and Trevor I think, but Pablo, it's crazy how

1276
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 4: he just has not been getting any run support. So

1277
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:51,240
Speaker 4: maybe this is the final opportunity where that evens out

1278
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:53,560
Speaker 4: for them, where they finally score runs on a day

1279
00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:55,480
Speaker 4: where he pitches great. I think they're due for that.

1280
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 4: So at the very least they need to be expecting

1281
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:00,560
Speaker 4: to win half of the games in this series, two

1282
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:04,040
Speaker 4: of the four. But I don't think it's a stretch

1283
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 4: to say that they have an opportunity to win three

1284
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 4: out of four. I mean, the one of the key

1285
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 4: guys to watching the series is Rojas because for whatever reason,

1286
00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 4: you look at his career numbers, he plays better against

1287
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 4: the d Backs than anybody else. Like it's off the charts.

1288
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,200
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously did have this great series on the

1289
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 4: last homestand but even days back further than that, you

1290
00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:25,400
Speaker 4: could go back to twenty nineteen, twenty eighteen, twenty seventeen,

1291
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:27,480
Speaker 4: that he's been This is one of his favorite teams

1292
00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 4: to play for whatever reason, no matter who's wearing that uniform.

1293
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,960
Speaker 4: So he's gonna be pretty big. And I mean, I

1294
00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:36,240
Speaker 4: have no idea what to expect from the Dodgers series,

1295
00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:38,480
Speaker 4: because the Dodgers have been almost as cold as the

1296
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,080
Speaker 4: d Backs have been. I mean early in the season,

1297
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:42,440
Speaker 4: just a few weeks ago, we were talking about the

1298
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 4: Dodgers as being once again the favorites to repeat as

1299
00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:48,640
Speaker 4: World Series champs. They were winning almost every single game,

1300
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 4: and now they've lost like ten out of their last fifteen.

1301
00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:54,680
Speaker 4: That they have a couple of key guys missing from injuries,

1302
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 4: but for the most part, it's kind of been head

1303
00:58:56,720 --> 00:59:00,560
Speaker 4: scratching that they're not doing anything right the way that

1304
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:04,520
Speaker 4: they're supposed to. That their bullpen has been shaky, their

1305
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:08,240
Speaker 4: defense has been shaky, their offense has been really mediocre.

1306
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 4: Just like almost in every facet of the game, the

1307
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:15,320
Speaker 4: Dodgers have been slumping. So it's I've always had trouble

1308
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 4: like knowing what to expect from that when you see

1309
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:19,040
Speaker 4: a team that you know they're so much better than

1310
00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 4: they're doing, but are they kind of overdue to really

1311
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:24,600
Speaker 4: snap out of that against you? And it could be

1312
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:26,760
Speaker 4: bad timing for the Marlins, just catching them at a

1313
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,360
Speaker 4: time where it's all coming together, or could be a

1314
00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:33,400
Speaker 4: situation where the Marlins are just are kind of lucky

1315
00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:35,720
Speaker 4: and they're actually bouncing in to this team at a

1316
00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 4: time where they're really vulnerable. But I mean overall, I mean,

1317
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:40,760
Speaker 4: the one thing that sticks out with the Dodgers is

1318
00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 4: they have an off day as we're recording on Monday.

1319
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 4: They got another off day coming up on Thursday, so

1320
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,520
Speaker 4: they have two off days heading into this series, like

1321
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:51,600
Speaker 4: in the span of four days, They're going to be

1322
00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 4: so well rested, I imagine, And that makes me kind

1323
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:59,320
Speaker 4: of pessimistic. So honestly, the Marlins will probably just hope

1324
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,960
Speaker 4: to get one game out of that series against the Dodgers,

1325
01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:06,240
Speaker 4: just because there's so it's just a big disparity in

1326
01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:08,439
Speaker 4: you know, the talent that they have available right now,

1327
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,120
Speaker 4: even if maybe Jazz and Alfarro make it back for

1328
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,240
Speaker 4: the very end of that series, but doesn't look like

1329
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:17,439
Speaker 4: they'll be there for the entire Dodger series. So that's

1330
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:20,880
Speaker 4: a big factor. So ultimately, as is usually the case,

1331
01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:22,680
Speaker 4: it's going to come down to the final series of

1332
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 4: the road trip where you think they should take at

1333
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,000
Speaker 4: least two against the d Backs, hoping to take one

1334
01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:30,160
Speaker 4: against the Dodgers. If the difference between having you know,

1335
01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:32,320
Speaker 4: a winning road trip, a successful road trip and not

1336
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,080
Speaker 4: is going to be how they do in the final

1337
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 4: leg of this And I am blinking at the moment,

1338
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,480
Speaker 4: who they play the Phillies, that final leg of this

1339
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 4: road trip coming up over a week from now. Yeah,

1340
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:47,520
Speaker 4: let me double check that, yep play three games against

1341
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:50,920
Speaker 4: the Phillies in Philadelphia. And I mean that's so far

1342
01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:52,560
Speaker 4: away that I don't even want to get too much

1343
01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:54,720
Speaker 4: into what to predict from that. I think we just

1344
01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:58,520
Speaker 4: kind of fall back on what we know about in

1345
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:01,040
Speaker 4: recent years, how the Marlins have owned the Phillies. They

1346
01:01:01,080 --> 01:01:05,120
Speaker 4: got their number, so for whatever reason, you hope that

1347
01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 4: will continue. But as we get closer, we'll get a

1348
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:10,360
Speaker 4: better idea of how those guys match up. So, I mean,

1349
01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 4: I'm always the one that comes in a little pessimistic

1350
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,240
Speaker 4: on this stuff. I would think that they're gonna end

1351
01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:17,920
Speaker 4: up going it should be better than the last road trip.

1352
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:20,800
Speaker 4: But you know, four and six is probably the most

1353
01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,280
Speaker 4: likely one. And as long as they win a couple

1354
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:25,400
Speaker 4: games against the Phillies, I mean, those are the ones

1355
01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:27,080
Speaker 4: that are the most important. Is making sure you win

1356
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:29,720
Speaker 4: against the guys that you're competing against in this division.

1357
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,520
Speaker 4: The division is so close, the division is somehow is

1358
01:01:32,600 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 4: still winnable. Even though the Marlins have had this adversity

1359
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:37,800
Speaker 4: that they faced on their own early in the year.

1360
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:40,480
Speaker 4: So that's going to be the key, is that hopefully

1361
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:42,480
Speaker 4: by the time that final leg at the road trip,

1362
01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:44,520
Speaker 4: we get Jazz is back to one hundred percent, al

1363
01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 4: Far was back to one hundred percent Eliezer. Maybe maybe

1364
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:52,920
Speaker 4: Eliezer finally gets the final game of that series. That

1365
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,880
Speaker 4: seems like a little unlikely, but holding out hope that

1366
01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 4: he's back as soon as possible in some role. So

1367
01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 4: that's what I got for that road trip.

1368
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:03,760
Speaker 3: I need I need minimum five w's.

1369
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,920
Speaker 2: I need the minimum to get five hundred on this

1370
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:07,840
Speaker 2: ten game road trip.

1371
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 4: I think it's possible. It's possible. I think that's probably

1372
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:11,920
Speaker 4: the best case. Scenarious ideal.

1373
01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 2: Ideal ideal for me would be six. When you got Pablo, Trevor,

1374
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 2: Sandy coming up. Definitely, you need you need those five wins.

1375
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:23,680
Speaker 2: You need to be greedy, and you need to expect

1376
01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:26,520
Speaker 2: a w each time. Those guys are all the Mountain period.

1377
01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,000
Speaker 2: When we get Lilo back, it's just you know what

1378
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 2: I'm saying, It's just extra. It's it's going to be

1379
01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:36,840
Speaker 2: lovely whatever we can get out of him. And man,

1380
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:38,560
Speaker 2: we got to tread water. We got to keep treading

1381
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:40,920
Speaker 2: water to that that rotations back to one hundred percent.

1382
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see Jazz back and you know

1383
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 2: what I can't I can't wait for our fish to

1384
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:49,040
Speaker 2: be back at one hundred percent.

1385
01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:54,280
Speaker 3: That's right. We have everybody back were.

1386
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:55,960
Speaker 4: That's gonna be my final word on this is just

1387
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 4: make sure people realize the challenges of this season that

1388
01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:01,640
Speaker 4: there's you look around the league, there's just more injuries

1389
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 4: overall than ever. I don't think the team's ever going

1390
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:06,080
Speaker 4: to be one hundred percent healthy. At the same time,

1391
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:09,200
Speaker 4: I mean, there's my guy Jeff Brigham. You remember Jeff Brigham.

1392
01:03:09,240 --> 01:03:10,960
Speaker 4: He has like disappeared off the face of the earth.

1393
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:12,360
Speaker 4: They put him on the injury list at the start

1394
01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:15,840
Speaker 4: of the year and no updates on him recently. So

1395
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 4: it's not just him, but in terms of there's just

1396
01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:22,600
Speaker 4: so many guys to try to manage under these circumstances

1397
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,640
Speaker 4: dealing with the situation they've never dealt with before. Due

1398
01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 4: to the differences and the length of the season, that

1399
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:30,960
Speaker 4: you can never count on them being one hundred percent.

1400
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,600
Speaker 4: It's just you want the key players to obviously be

1401
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 4: performing at their best, that this team they had the

1402
01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:38,640
Speaker 4: upside when when six zero is healthy and when Starling

1403
01:03:38,760 --> 01:03:41,080
Speaker 4: is healthy and when Jazz is healthy, those guys on

1404
01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:43,920
Speaker 4: their best, when they're at their best, they could be superstars.

1405
01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:46,600
Speaker 4: They could be the best players. Well I don't want

1406
01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 4: to get expectations too crazy, but they could be their

1407
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 4: all star caliber players, the guys that are among the

1408
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:54,320
Speaker 4: best at their positions when things are going right. That's

1409
01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:57,480
Speaker 4: the thing that this team was lacking, honestly for throughout

1410
01:03:57,480 --> 01:03:59,200
Speaker 4: this whole rebuild. I mean, that's the thing. They've just

1411
01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:02,560
Speaker 4: been lacking some star power. And finally, this is the year,

1412
01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:05,200
Speaker 4: year four the rebuild where that star power is there

1413
01:04:05,520 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 4: because of some of the talent they've acquired in those

1414
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 4: trades like six Toero, like Starling, like Jazz, and just

1415
01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:13,600
Speaker 4: because of the work these guys put in in terms

1416
01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 4: of Pablo and Sandy, where they just keep getting better,

1417
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 4: they keep so much credit goes to them and the

1418
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 4: rest of the organization for finding them their ways to

1419
01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:27,040
Speaker 4: keep evolving, and it's adjusting and tapping into the best

1420
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:29,160
Speaker 4: versions of themselves. So it's gonna be a fun ride

1421
01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:30,000
Speaker 4: the rest of the way.

1422
01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:35,439
Speaker 2: Speaking of tapping into talent, superstar players like I'm going

1423
01:04:35,440 --> 01:04:37,240
Speaker 2: out on limb call them superstar players.

Speaker 3: But this is superstar talent. Shout out to the front office.
