1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,320 Speaker 1: Like Elis said, stated the Fish welcome in everyone another's 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: slightly different time than what we did last week. Of course, 3 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: the football season started the Dolphins back to back weeks 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: without a one o'clock game, so a lot of stuff 5 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 1: the dodge with that. But I think more importantly the 6 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 1: Marrows are winners once again, three in a row, sweep 7 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: the Braves, a week that I thought was going for 8 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: the worst when it started, after dropping three or four 9 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 1: to the Brewers, said, oh man, this is not gonna 10 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: be a good say the Fish, especially if they get 11 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: swept by Atlanta, but completely changed the vibes to sweep 12 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,840 Speaker 1: the Braves. First time that's been that's happened since twenty team. 13 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,840 Speaker 1: I mean, none of these players are on these teams 14 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: at that time. Everything has completely changed since it's happened, 15 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: and yeah, last time. The Marlins will have to see 16 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: the Braves this year. The less they play in the postseason, 17 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: talk about that and all sorts of other stuff. What 18 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 1: chances are going to look like? I think that's what 19 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: our big storyline will be, other than just the offense 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: has exploded. I did not crunch the numbers entirely, but 21 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,760 Speaker 1: thirty six runs this weekend I would say it's probably 22 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: been about a week, and it took probably about a 23 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: week and a half prior to this series to tally 24 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: thirty six runs. As it is, so you like where 25 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 1: this offensive explosion come from. You you know how they 26 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: just been sitting on this. It feels like this whole series. 27 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 2: It's not as if it totally came out of nowhere, 28 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 2: because it is somewhat comparable to what they had done 29 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 2: right before the Brewers series, during that other winning streak 30 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 2: they just had a few weeks ago. Of course, that 31 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 2: was against much weaker competition, most notably the Nationals pitching staff. 32 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: With the Braves, you got some of their normal arms 33 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 2: in here, at least for two of the three games 34 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 2: that you did, so to put up more during these 35 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: three games as many runs during a three game span 36 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: as they ever have, obviously, that is raising things to 37 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,399 Speaker 2: a new bar here and only the final game having 38 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 2: Jorge Hilaire in there and Solaire was helpful, but certainly 39 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 2: most of this game without so Lair as well, so 40 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 2: it was not even one hundred percent fully available. Guys. 41 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 2: Brian de Lacruz missed most of the series, and of 42 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: course he's a guy that is somewhat of a high 43 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 2: floor offensive player where you usually get a hit from 44 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 2: him just about every single game, but it wasn't even 45 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 2: around for most of the series to do it with 46 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: a personnel that they had against the opponent that they 47 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: went up against. You really can't put a great number, 48 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: a great explanation on it, but you do have to 49 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: single out Jazz. And even though Jazz wasn't the only 50 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 2: guy that had an amazing series, Jake Berder really right 51 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 2: up there with him for just to have those two 52 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 2: moments where he produces eight runs on two swings, that's 53 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 2: pretty special. That's obviously unprecedented in Marlin's history to have 54 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 2: something like that back to back games as well as 55 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: most other teams histories. And I think just a week ago, 56 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: I was continuing to kind of insist that I still 57 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 2: like where he is and the direction that Jazz is 58 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 2: heading in, including a couple of hits in the series 59 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 2: against left handed pitching as well, Like he is such 60 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: an impact player when everything is going right, and it's 61 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: at a position that Marlins for years have been like 62 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 2: trying to figure out. And he's not going to carry 63 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 2: this team on his own, obviously, he needs a lot 64 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: of help around him, but it does make a difference 65 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 2: when you have somebody like him betting in the middle 66 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: of the order to drive in runs when they have 67 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: guys on base, because for a lot of the season 68 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: that has been the big issue with this team, where 69 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: they are pretty high up there in terms of just 70 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: compiling hits, but it doesn't translate to a lot of 71 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: runs when you don't have over the fence power, and 72 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 2: Jazz has that as much as pretty much anybody does, 73 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: So that one factor is something that raises the whole 74 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: ceiling of this team's offense. Is when you have him 75 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 2: in there and just knock on wood, you have them 76 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 2: in there hopefully every day the rest of the way, 77 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: and you can't really feel too confident about that. It 78 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 2: was just earlier this week that he had another injury 79 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: scare another I think it was a knee soreness episode 80 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 2: that puts his availability in question. So that's the tricky 81 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: situation that they're in is you never know exactly when 82 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 2: he's gonna be available. But just to reiterate, this was 83 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 2: such a lopsided series that you can't you don't want 84 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 2: to focus too much on one single guy. This was 85 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 2: the highest. This is the highest point of Marlin's fan 86 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 2: ecstasy in almost three full years. This is this is 87 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 2: as high as it's been. This is as confident as 88 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 2: it's been. This is the end of the stretch of 89 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 2: the hardest stretch of their schedule. This has been, for 90 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: the most part the second half of the season, an 91 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: extremely difficult schedule, and they just went through the very 92 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 2: best opponent that is on there and they took care 93 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 2: of business, put themselves in a position where you've seen 94 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: it across Twitter the last few hours. They do control 95 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 2: their own destiny from here on out. They are jumbled 96 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: together with those other teams in the wild card race. 97 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 2: Simply they outperformed them the rest of the way they 98 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 2: are in and that is such a desirable position to 99 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: be in this close to the end of the year. 100 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: Now, we'll see if Louise is there. Louise is at 101 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: the game today, I want to hear his stots. I'm 102 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: just the explosion what people had to say at the ballpark. 103 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I'm kind of like at a 104 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 3: loss for words, and me, you know, out of the 105 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 3: crutch and who cover alongside me today there were just 106 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 3: kind of like several moments where you know, the onslaught 107 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 3: in both the third, the sixth, and the seventh was 108 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 3: going on. We kind of both just looked at each 109 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 3: other and started laughing. And because I don't think any 110 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 3: of us had ever really envisioned that, not to say 111 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 3: that the offense isn't capable of scoring runs, but to 112 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 3: do it with the frequency that they did, and to 113 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 3: match a club record for three games with thirty six runs, 114 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 3: something they set back in two thousand and eight against 115 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 3: a team like this, Like, I mean, you know what, 116 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 3: if you want, Atlanta won the division, so maybe they're 117 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 3: quote credit rest guys. I mean they we got in 118 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 3: Tolkunya the last two days. So but at the end 119 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 3: of the day, like it's still the Atlanta Braze and 120 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 3: like eighty percent of Ousti Alvis is still better than 121 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 3: a majority of the second basement and the most middle 122 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 3: infielders playing today, Like you're still playing like it's still 123 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 3: the Braves. And I mean the fact that they and 124 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: sure they put us runs against Nicky Lopez, which I mean, 125 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 3: I've been a baseball fan for a year, for twenty years. 126 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 3: I had the first time I have every un to a 127 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 3: game in my twenty years going to baseball games where 128 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 3: I've ever seen a position player pitch and I got 129 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 3: this year two So I mean I got, I was 130 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 3: I was welcome to a treat today. And yeah, I 131 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 3: mean the clubhouse was celebrating and we got down to 132 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: the post game and all you heard was guys celebrating 133 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 3: and felt like, you know, them beating the braves. I 134 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 3: you know, I wasn't there in nineteen eighty, but it 135 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 3: was like when the US team hockey team beat Russia 136 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 3: Eland and the UH and that big winner Olympics game 137 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 3: like it, I mean, it was incredible. And then to 138 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 3: see kind of Luisa Rise do his you know, show 139 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,239 Speaker 3: that he can hit some homeward in two games, including 140 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 3: his first multi homer game, and then he goes back 141 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 3: to hitting the way that he always has, getting three 142 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 3: hits today and driving in a pair of runs. He's 143 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 3: now a hitch I at two hundred. There's just so 144 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 3: many different storylines, I mean even and then we forget 145 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 3: Blizardo threw six innings today and he struck out eight 146 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 3: and like he was excellent, And that's one of those 147 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 3: things that just totally lost in the shuffle of you know, 148 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 3: a season high and run scored and I don't know. 149 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, Skip is so stoic every time, 150 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 3: and he walked into that press spot or the the 151 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 3: conference after the game and you would have thought that 152 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 3: they won like two to one in like a hard 153 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 3: fought game where the team where the opposing team had 154 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,679 Speaker 3: like the winning run on second in the ninth inning, 155 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 3: But like you know, he it's just kind of just 156 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 3: goes back to like this day by day kind of 157 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 3: eat was that he preaches to them, and it seems 158 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 3: like the players have fully bought into where you know, 159 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 3: every day you kind of just have to prove yourself again. 160 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 3: And you know, this weekend they've proven to me that 161 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 3: you know, I know, I know I underestimated them along 162 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 3: time this season, just given what the run differential is 163 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 3: at and was that several points this year. But it's 164 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 3: just you know, the more I see it, the more 165 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 3: I believe it. It's it's unbelievable, and I mean, you know, 166 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 3: it's the most fun I've had watching baseball, at least 167 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 3: from my local teams vantage point, in a very long time. 168 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: So just an incredible week absolutely, And something else I 169 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: wanted to point out. I mean, we'll spend visa a 170 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: little bit here flanking on it, but of course want 171 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: to talk about what's ahead with John Bird is struggling 172 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: recently with Jolley, what'll struggling. Pretty much all season, there's 173 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: been someone who's definitely stepped up in their absence and 174 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: has been fighting for more playing time and has gotten it. 175 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: And one of the surprising heroes has been Garrett Hampsen Soli. 176 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 1: I mean, you've watched every single game and I see it, 177 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: and I wanted to ask him about it, but just 178 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: what do you think has changed for a player like 179 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: Hampson And how how is it having a player like 180 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 1: that step up at such a crucial time to be 181 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: able to get off base when your typical you know, shortstop, 182 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 1: third basement whoever isn't getting on Like. 183 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 2: He's pretty high up on the list of positive surprises 184 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 2: of this Marvelins team this season, because it's not new 185 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 2: that he's performing. The thing is, he was hitting this 186 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: well early in the year too, and there really has 187 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: not been an extended slump whatsoever. Every every time they 188 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: felt like he was going to come back down to earth, 189 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 2: they sent him down to Triple A Jacksonville, and he's 190 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 2: gone down like a pro, and he's come back up 191 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 2: and he's continued to produce again, and he's hitting as 192 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 2: the season winds down. His full season hitting stats are 193 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 2: better than Birdie has ever put up in a single 194 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: season before. And we like Bertie. Bertie has been a 195 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 2: really good player for this team in that utility role, 196 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 2: and Hampson has outplayed him off clearly offensively this year, 197 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: maybe defensively. He can make the case Pampson's not perfect, 198 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 2: but to get that much offense from a utility player 199 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 2: that is equally available in both the middle infield and 200 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: all three outfield spots. I don't even know which outfield 201 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: position he played today, he played one of the three 202 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 2: with Della Cruise out. I guess he played left field, 203 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 2: and then he moved to center later in the game 204 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 2: when he was out of hand. He's been huge looking 205 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 2: far ahead. He's under club control beyond this year too. 206 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: A guy they signed on a minor league deal that 207 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 2: you'd actually probably wind up keeping in your organization from 208 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 2: multiple years. This is a pretty rare thing to come 209 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 2: across because he's been in the majors a long time. 210 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 2: He was in the best hitting environment possible in Colorado 211 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 2: for his entire major league career to this point for 212 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 2: parts of five seasons, and he just could not do 213 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 2: anything there. And the fact that even if you remove 214 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 2: all the park factors, just the raw hitting numbers this 215 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 2: year are way better than they were in any of 216 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 2: his previous four seasons. I did not see that coming. 217 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 2: So that's been really helpful. You have to have him 218 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: as not just not just the overall production, but even 219 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: in important situations. And one of the I'm trying to 220 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: remember it must have been Yesterday's game that he came 221 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,440 Speaker 2: up with a two out hit that was early on 222 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 2: when the game was still a little bit in doubt 223 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 2: in the third ending of yes of Saturday's game that 224 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: added on an insurance run. Yeah, moments like that, He's 225 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 2: been really great, especially with two outs. That's what I've 226 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 2: noticed with him. So he is he's a really useful 227 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: all round player, and that has for him to actually 228 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 2: be in the line up fairly regularly for a team 229 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 2: that is this close to the postseason that was certainly 230 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 2: not on my watch list for this year. Very pleasant surprise. 231 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: So that that will be is as much reflecting as 232 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: I do and looking at and I think one of 233 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: the bigger talking points. Positively has been a bullpen and 234 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: arm availability. Seems like we see a bullpen once every 235 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: five days and this point maybe more often than that. 236 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: There's another TVA later in the week, I believe for 237 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: the final game of the bat series. Finally get a 238 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: day off on Thursday, but there's been a constant in 239 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: and out cycle of arms. We didn't even get to 240 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: see Josh Simpson this week. Chi Chi was gonna be 241 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: a bulk guy, but he kind of just cleaned up 242 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: the game. So for both of you guys, what do 243 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: you think we're gonna kind of be looking at bullpit 244 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: availability wise for the next week And are there any 245 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: other guys Jacksonville that you know we could expect to 246 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: see maybe in the next week or so. 247 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 2: Let me take an overview here, because that since the 248 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 2: roster's expanded, that final spot in the pen has just 249 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 2: been a revolving door of fresh arms. To just put 250 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: it in generous terms, there hasn't been that fourteenth pitcher 251 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 2: that they really think highly of. It was it was 252 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 2: a bummer to see Josh Simpson spend five days on 253 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 2: the roster not get into a game. We were talking 254 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 2: about this in our ficial on first chat pretty briefly. 255 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 2: Did been nice to get him in at the ends 256 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: of yesterday's game. On Saturday, once Tanner Scott had that 257 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 2: six run lead to work with that, you really need 258 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 2: to send him out to close it out. I thought 259 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 2: maybe that would be a good spot to get Simpson's debut. 260 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 2: But they send him down. They're bringing Chi Chi chee 261 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 2: Chi gets into a game because he only pitched one 262 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 2: inning today, he'll be still I assume they're no, They're 263 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 2: not in a hurry to get rid of him unless 264 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 2: they bring up somebody else they like more. The one 265 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 2: guy that we still have not seen despite his excellent 266 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 2: minor league performance is Anthony Maldonado. He's been just an 267 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 2: incredible reliever down there in tripa A. Obviously Alex Carver 268 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 2: was on here with us, he would be really pounding 269 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 2: the table for him to get an opportunity. But so 270 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 2: I will do it in his place. Let me see 271 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 2: if he I know. They were actually off today in Jacksonville. 272 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 2: They played their doubleheader yesterday, and I imagined did Maldonado 273 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 2: against either of those games. 274 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: He did. 275 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: He got into fits two scoreless innings in first game 276 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 2: the double on Saturday, so I don't know. He's done 277 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 2: everything could possibly want from a reliever. He is a 278 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 2: one eighty ERA in Jacksonville this year with an incredible 279 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: strikeout rate, almost unhittable as well. Like he's if nothing else, 280 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,840 Speaker 2: he's somebody that would be really good against right handed 281 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 2: batters in certain situations. I think he'd be better than 282 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 2: Chiechie Gonzalez. That somewhat of a bold take. We were 283 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 2: finally getting near the end of the stretch of sixteen 284 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 2: games and sixteen days after this Mets series, they finally 285 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 2: have an off day during that stretch. Understandably, having fresh 286 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 2: arms available was ultra important for this team just in case, 287 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 2: because it was the way that they are organizing this, 288 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: having six rotation spots and the fact that you want 289 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 2: this long stretch without any breathers in between, that kind 290 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 2: of necessitated you to have a fresh arm on standby. 291 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 2: They're now close enough to the end that I don't 292 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 2: think that should be important anymore. I don't think you 293 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 2: can really justify having chi Chi Gonzalez on this roster 294 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 2: these next two weeks, because you're you need to win 295 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 2: as many of these games as possible. You need to 296 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: optimize your roster in this case, but one more. Just 297 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 2: look at the guys that are on the forty man roster. 298 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: It's technically full at the moment, so they'd have to 299 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: unfortunately dfa somebody like chie Chie to make a spot 300 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 2: for somebody like Maldonado. But at the moment we have 301 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 2: Tommy Nancy's hurt in the miners and Josh Simpson just 302 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 2: got sent down. He can't come back up unless there's 303 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 2: an injury. Yeah. Among the forty man roster options, the 304 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 2: one guy that I guess gets forgotten about is Quascar Brasobon, who, 305 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 2: for I would say the majority of this season, he's 306 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 2: been a good guy to have it at the bullpen. Obviously, 307 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 2: his peak early in the season, that first quarter of 308 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 2: the year, he was looking like one of the most 309 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 2: trustworthy arms. And I think the latest on him is 310 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 2: that was he throwing live batting practice. I can check 311 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 2: on our site if you go on fish on First 312 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: dot com. On the pinned posts near the top of 313 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 2: every page is the injury and rehabit tracker. So if 314 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 2: I look here, you did throw a bullpen session on Friday, 315 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 2: which is pretty close. 316 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: You know. 317 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 2: The one step between that and returning is just facing 318 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 2: live batters, So whether he does that maybe tomorrow, that's 319 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 2: usually the timeline. I'd be curious when we get an 320 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 2: update tomorrow how close Brasabon is to coming back. That's 321 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 2: really the one guy that to have your eye on 322 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 2: who's already on the forty man roster, and considering that 323 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 2: Maldonado still has not shown himself in the big leagues, like, 324 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 2: it's putting pretty high expectations to just throw him into 325 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: this really crucial situation with no margin for error. So 326 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 2: I'm keeping my eye on Brasabon as long as he 327 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 2: is getting really close. That's the guy that would make 328 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 2: a lot more sense over this fresh arm, you know, 329 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: to fill out the bullpen and make sure that you're 330 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 2: not over taxing Scott and Nardi, especially because you'll need 331 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 2: them in every single close game here on out. 332 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: It's something I know about Scott has availability that he 333 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: might be taking a couple of days off towards the 334 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: end of the month. How known is. 335 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:12,120 Speaker 2: That about his is an upcoming child? I think yes, 336 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 2: I think people are about that. I guess it was 337 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 2: a while ago. So for people that need to refresh 338 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: your tanner, Scott's about to become a first time dad, 339 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 2: and that baby is due over these next two weeks 340 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: at some point I don't know exactly when, so that 341 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 2: will be an interesting complication where certainly you want to 342 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 2: prioritize that over anything else in life, and certainly over 343 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 2: your baseball career. But of course it's up to the 344 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 2: player himself to determine whether or not they need they 345 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 2: feel they need that time off, depending on where they 346 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 2: are when the baby is delivered and their you know, 347 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 2: very personal relationships with their significant other. So we will 348 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 2: see because that that is going to be an interesting 349 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 2: wrinkle in that that he might not be. The way 350 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 2: that this is playing down, I think his wife is 351 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 2: thirty eight weeks that it's really crazy how it's playing 352 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 2: out that it aligns almost perfectly with the end of 353 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 2: the regular season, So congrats to him when that comes about. 354 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 2: At a maximum, I think the MLD limit on paternity 355 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 2: leave is three days seventy two hours, So yeah, they 356 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 2: certainly need to have other guys available. It is a 357 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 2: unique position where Scott has just been as good as 358 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 2: any other major league pitcher on Earth over the last 359 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 2: month and a half. He has not given up a 360 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 2: run in a month and a half. While pitching the 361 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 2: most important situations. Even his season overall, you could argue 362 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 2: is as good as any other reliever in baseball in 363 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: terms of the context that he's pitching in. So if 364 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 2: he's going to miss any time, then there is going 365 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: to be a drop off in what you can expect 366 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 2: from the bullpen in his absence, But I don't want 367 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 2: to speculate about that. When that comes, When that day 368 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 2: he arrives, then we'll see what they do. They certainly 369 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: can't take any of these roster spots for granted though 370 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 2: at this stage, So yeah, I would like to see 371 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 2: that final bullpen spot go to somebody that they trust 372 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 2: to get out rather than just having a fresh arm available. 373 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 2: These games are too important to worry about pacing everybody, 374 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 2: And again, you just you need to kind of throw 375 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 2: out all the workload caution to the wins at this point, 376 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 2: with how close we are to the ends and how 377 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 2: much is that stake? 378 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: All right, So won't waste any more time looking on that. 379 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: We'll get the week in review, so that way we 380 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: can get to your guys' questions. Of course, with football 381 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: and stuff, I'm sure how many questions we'll have anyone 382 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 1: who's got one, will answer on but we're going weak 383 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 1: ahead now, final home strand home stand, home stretch. Try 384 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: to combine both words their diesel of the season for 385 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: the Marlins, and there is a good chance that you know, 386 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: this is it at home unless the Marlins do go 387 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: to the NLBS and have some home games against either 388 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 1: the Dodgers or Braves. Now that that spots open back up, 389 00:19:55,960 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 1: I guess we'll walk wait and see there. But got 390 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 1: three against the Mets, which is so bizarre. The Mets, 391 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 1: the Marlins haven't seen since April, and that's a division 392 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: opponent and feels so long ago. But they'll be coming 393 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: to Miami for the first time since Opening Day and 394 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: then finally get a day off after that sixteen games 395 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: and sixteen days strike Uli had mentioned on Thursday, and 396 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 1: the Brewers come into town, which that could be another 397 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: time that the marrow and see the Brewers of many 398 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: and late in the season, Herry Courts, you have two 399 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: series scheduled against Milwaukee in September, and let's say Marlins 400 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: do get that sixth seed and the Brewers win the 401 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: nl Central, that would be yet another instance that the 402 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: Marlins would play the Brewers. So a final home stand 403 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: of the season, including by this time next week. You 404 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: what's something we need to look at this week just 405 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: overall through these six games. 406 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 2: Well, we can start with the Mets, the fact that 407 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 2: they're not really playing any worse than they were before 408 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 2: their trade deadline moves, which is to say that, you know, 409 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 2: there's still not a good seam, but they are somewhat formidable. 410 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 2: They're they're a very interesting combination of still having some 411 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 2: star players in there playing basically every day, and they're 412 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 2: just combined with a couple of these rookies that are 413 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 2: somewhat inconsistent in there, and overall, it's not that far 414 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 2: worse than an average team. This is a Mets team 415 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,479 Speaker 2: that still has about as good a run differential this 416 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 2: year as the Marlins do, so the underlying talent that 417 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 2: they have is still worth noting. This is still a 418 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 2: team that you're not guaranteed to beat in a three 419 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 2: game series, especially when one of the games is Kodai Senga. 420 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 2: If I had to circle anybody, it'd have to be him. 421 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: He has pretty quietly been incredible, well not quietly in 422 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 2: New York, but quietly on the national scene. Everybody's already 423 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 2: given Corbyn Carroll the National League Rookie of the Year award, 424 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 2: and I still think he's gonna win. But Senga has 425 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 2: been better than Carol over the last few months. Is 426 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 2: his combination of going deep into games and compiling strikeouts. 427 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 2: He has three double digit strikeout games in his last 428 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 2: four starts, and I think if you go back, this 429 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,919 Speaker 2: is arbitrary, but you go back to the start of July, 430 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 2: he has a two three two eer A as a 431 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: qualified starting pitcher. He's been ninety strikeouts in those seventy 432 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 2: three and two thirds innings. For Senga, statistically, his fork 433 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 2: ball and he I believe he made his major league 434 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 2: debut against the Marlins in that first series at the 435 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 2: start of the season, and I think, yeah, he did 436 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 2: pretty well. He did okay in that one. Yeah, one run, 437 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 2: five and a third innings, eight strikeouts. That's basically who 438 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,360 Speaker 2: he's been since then, except he's going even deeper into 439 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: games at this stage. So that's the final game of 440 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 2: the series. You really want to have this series wrapped 441 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 2: up the first two because I don't think I trust 442 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 2: any Marlins starter right now more than I would trust 443 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: Senga to put up a great game. He's just been 444 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 2: dominant over the sixth ended period of time. Other than that, 445 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 2: it's been some of the familiar names on that team 446 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 2: that are still performing pretty well, like Francisco Lindor. He's 447 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 2: having a really good season again and Pete Alonzo's driven 448 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 2: in a million runs and hit a million homers. Nimo 449 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 2: is still solid at the top of their lineup, and 450 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 2: it's been mixed results from like the rookies that they're 451 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 2: trying to blend in there. But for the most part, 452 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 2: Ronnie Mauricio, he's gotten off to a good start to 453 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 2: his major league career over these few weeks. He has 454 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 2: extremely loud hitting tools at least, and they're figuring out 455 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,640 Speaker 2: what to do with him defensively. But he's a he's 456 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 2: an impact player in there. So yeah, so the Mets 457 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 2: are are pretty a pretty solid team. They're They're not 458 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 2: They're compared to when the Marlins last saw them in 459 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 2: April or in whenever it was that they last played 460 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 2: in City Field. That was a team that still had 461 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 2: expectations of being the elite of the elite, so expectations 462 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 2: have come down from there. At the same time, they 463 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 2: really haven't changed much in the last few months. 464 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:56,440 Speaker 1: For the Mets. 465 00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 2: They've just been They're an average ish type of team, 466 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 2: and it wouldn't be they just got done taking I 467 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,959 Speaker 2: think people. In their series against the Reds, well, this' 468 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 2: centinly won this. 469 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: Believe they lost two of three to the Reds. He 470 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 1: got the win today to avoid the sweep. 471 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, it felt like they should have won more 472 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 2: than what they did in that series and played the 473 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 2: Reds really close. I'll leave it at that. So, yeah, 474 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: there's still a team to to worry about, even though 475 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 2: the schedule gets easier. This is not this is this 476 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 2: is not a walk in the park by any means. 477 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 1: So I was trying to look at what all the 478 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: other Wild Card contenders have with the head since we're 479 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: officially and I mean we've been in scoreboard, watching the 480 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: score bar, we're watching park called this season for quite 481 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 1: some time now. It feels like, but say, the teams 482 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: you really got to look at are the Reds, the Diamondbacks, 483 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: and the Cups. The Giants CA always get back in there, 484 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: but they're in the midst of a tough stretch. And 485 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: I believe Alex Barrera posted of some strength schedules to 486 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: me yesterday something like that, and I believe the Giants 487 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: have the top of striketh schedule left, but the Reds 488 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 1: have twins in the pirates of this sweek. I don't 489 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: know what the Dbacks and Cubs have. Dbacks and Cubs 490 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: are about the half first pitch of their game in 491 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: a few minutes. That's one that I will probably split 492 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: screen with some of that night football tonight. That is 493 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 1: a massive game. 494 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm looking at it now. The Dbacks and Giants, 495 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 2: they play a two game set with each other coming 496 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 2: up in a few days. 497 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 498 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 2: Overall, I don't read too much into the strength of 499 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: schedule at this point of the season. I just pay 500 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 2: attention to when teams are playing each other, when contenders 501 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 2: are playing each other, because then no matter what happens 502 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 2: to the Marlins benefit from that one. In this very 503 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 2: improbable event that the Dbacks have played so well against 504 00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 2: the Cubs this weekend that has put the second wild 505 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 2: card spot in play, I was almost ready to just 506 00:25:55,680 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 2: punt on that and just aim for the third spot 507 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 2: or bust and for the Dbacks to perform as well 508 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 2: as I have those last couple of games, and the 509 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 2: best possible solution is a game like last night between 510 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 2: the Cubs and Dbacks where it goes thirteen innings and 511 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 2: you burn out their pitching staffs. So maybe that has 512 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 2: ripple effects over their upcoming series and leave them in 513 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 2: a more vulnerable position the rest of the way. You 514 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 2: don't want to root for injuries or anything like that, 515 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 2: but it's okay to root for fatigue. You could root 516 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 2: for these teams to just really over exert themselves and 517 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 2: put themselves in a position where, yeah, they're compromised moving 518 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 2: forward just because of how because of playing a lot 519 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 2: longer than you're used to playing at this stage of 520 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 2: the season. Yeah, so it has really been a pleasant 521 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 2: surprise that second spot has opened up again. You did 522 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,199 Speaker 2: to mention the rest of this upcoming week, Milwaukee facing 523 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 2: them again and Christian Yelich being available again, But it 524 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 2: made to me that serious loss against the Brewers. So 525 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: concerning is that they lost even without seeing Yellow whatsoever. 526 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 2: I think she's back. He didn't actually play today. I 527 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,120 Speaker 2: saw him play yesterday, for sure. He was in their 528 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 2: lineup yesterday. Was he just two days? This is really 529 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 2: confusing with Yelich. I think I saw him come back 530 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 2: just a few days ago, and then he disappeared again. 531 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 2: He played on Friday. Okay, he played on Friday, but 532 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 2: he actually hasn't been in the last couple of days. 533 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: So with Milwaukee, that's still a team that offensively, they're 534 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 2: a little bit up and down, like they're a team 535 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 2: that on the right night, as the Marlins did in 536 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 2: one game of that series, you can really shut them 537 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 2: down in that one. But it's been their pitching staff 538 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 2: has been the entire story of their second half of 539 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 2: the season. The fact that the top of their rotation 540 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 2: is so incredible, that their bullpen is so deep that 541 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 2: I would take the under on the Marlins putting up 542 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 2: thirty six runs against the Brewers next weekends during that 543 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 2: three game set, I'd probably take the under on sixteen 544 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 2: runs in that series. If you're gonna win, it's gonna 545 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 2: have to be low scoring games. And so it's that 546 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 2: off day before that series will be very helpful to 547 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 2: the bullpen to have that finally, to have an extra 548 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 2: day for recovery and get everybody in position for that. Yeah, overall, 549 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 2: the very toughest matchup that was left on the schedule 550 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 2: against the Braves, that is in the rear view all 551 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 2: these series coming up. They feel a lot less intimidating 552 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 2: than that one does. 553 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: Uh. 554 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 2: Those starting pitchers that the Brewers had were absolutely locked 555 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 2: in during that series, So I don't think they can 556 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,520 Speaker 2: get a whole lot better than they already were with 557 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 2: Woodruff going the distance in his game with Freddy Peralta 558 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 2: had a dominant outing in there as well. And let's 559 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,959 Speaker 2: see do they actually face Corbyn Burns. I wonder if 560 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 2: he's yeah, they avoided him the last time, but I 561 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 2: don't think they'll be. It looks like they actually might 562 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 2: be lucky again the way that this is tentatively lined 563 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 2: up from what I'm saying, Corbyn Burns has lined up 564 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 2: to pitch the day before on Thursday against the Cardinals, 565 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 2: so they may actually have dodged him a second straight time, 566 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 2: so that that would be a nice break. Every those 567 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 2: little things they do add up at this stage of 568 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: the season is whenever you can spare yourself with facing 569 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 2: any sort of top line starting pitcher, that makes a 570 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 2: pretty big difference so compared to your win expectancy. So 571 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 2: it's uh, I wouldn't blame people for like focusing on 572 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 2: that type of stuff and the way that these pitching 573 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: matchups line up. The rest of the way. 574 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: Well, if you have any questions about any of that, 575 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,720 Speaker 1: will answer them as well. So we're taking a look 576 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,719 Speaker 1: at all the matchups, everything at that nature. So we'll 577 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 1: get to the secret part. I don't know how many 578 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: questions we'll have. I think we only got one or 579 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: two of our usuals here, but we'll answer any and 580 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: all questions.

And I believe our Fantasy Baseball 590 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: Super Subscriber League has come to a close, and the 591 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: winner that acts field level tickets to either Opening Day 592 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four or a playoff game twenty twenty three. 593 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 1: And we just said Fantasy football as well.

We do have three at 611 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 2: the moment. 612 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay, that was so confused. For a second, 613 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: I was like, man, why we have no request? This 614 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: is so weird. I completely forgot. So, yeah, we'll bring 615 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: it whoever. I guess you'll just have the surprising of 616 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: who we bring in.

You got twenty two thousand plus us in 623 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 4: the stadium. What an experience for those who are listening 624 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 4: to this space that have never experienced. 625 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 1: This live before. I know a lot of our. 626 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 4: Listeners joint listeners are underage right under nineteen, under thirteen, 627 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 4: et cetera, including Ryan and whatnot. Y'all have never experienced 628 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 4: playoff baseball from a standpoint of live entertainment. And there's 629 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 4: nothing in the world like it, not NBA, not Super Bowl, 630 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 4: not hockey that you just went through. And I'm so 631 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 4: happy for you guys to experience what you did this 632 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 4: weekend and continuing moving forward to hopefully hosting a playoff game. 633 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 4: So I want to start off with some positivity there 634 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 4: and just it's awesome for everyone in this space. A 635 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 4: couple of things that you pointed out, Eli and granted 636 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 4: You can't play down to the Mets this week, even 637 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 4: though they're not the Mets that came into Miami in 638 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 4: April to open up this season. You got to keep 639 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 4: this intensity up like you just did verse the Braves, 640 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 4: like you did last week against Philadelphia. Of course, the 641 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 4: three or four losses to Milwaukee you can make up 642 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 4: next weekend, but I'm kind of worried about that. In 643 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 4: the past we played down to teams. We can't take 644 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 4: our foot off the throttle now. One thing I'd like 645 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 4: your opinion on is how it's not just one player 646 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 4: that's really lifting the team up. The last two Fridays, 647 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 4: it's been Jacob Stallings. You get Jesus Sanchez taking a 648 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 4: walk or getting a monster three home run down here 649 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 4: and there lifting this team up. De la Cruz just 650 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 4: missed the most amount of games in a row that 651 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 4: he's I think missed in the last two years with 652 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 4: two games off or since his last injury of twenty two, 653 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 4: but he's won two games in the last week. Burgers 654 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 4: on five, Jazz is on fire. What are your thoughts 655 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:07,440 Speaker 4: on the team mentality and not just relying on one player. 656 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 2: And I would also mention today Nick Fortes four hit game, 657 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 2: even though one of them was against a position player. 658 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 2: He had been something so mightily with this team. It's 659 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 2: no secret that they've had like some weaknesses on this roster, 660 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 2: and there have been folks clamoring for them to make 661 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 2: decisions and cut ties with guys that are underperforming, and 662 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 2: then when it feels like you've just had enough of them, 663 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 2: they actually step up and perform in such a way 664 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 2: that makes you remember and realize why it is that 665 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 2: they're on here in the first place. That's been extremely impressive. 666 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,440 Speaker 2: I think that does when you have a team like this, 667 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 2: you have to give credit to the coaching staff for 668 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 2: putting some of these guys in positions to do that 669 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:57,399 Speaker 2: and for like sticking with them and not entirely when 670 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 2: guys their confidence is wavering. There are some guys that 671 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 2: just don't recover from that where they just reached a 672 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 2: point where they run into this mental wall in terms 673 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 2: of their performance, and I think the way that this 674 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 2: coaching staff has handled that seems to be more effective 675 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 2: than how they were just doing it under the previous 676 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 2: staff last year, in the year before, or in recent years. 677 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 2: There would be guys, both veteranslated in their careers, and 678 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 2: also young guys and everybody in between, where they were 679 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 2: under perform at a certain level and they were just 680 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 2: things would never really turn arounds, and they would never 681 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 2: they didn't have their breakout moments. So many guys that 682 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: were just dead weight on this team and just weren't 683 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 2: in weren't able to make those adjustments to come out 684 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 2: of it at any point. So I think a lot 685 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 2: of that does go back to the coaching staff something 686 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 2: that is so hard to quantify. With this team, all 687 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,320 Speaker 2: we know is that it's been almost entirely different, with 688 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 2: the exception of mel and Wellington sepaida aside from the 689 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 2: pitching coach and the bullpen coach, everybody else is new 690 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 2: in here, and I think you just got give them 691 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 2: a lot of credit that, both on the individual level 692 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 2: and collectively as a team, there have been different stages 693 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 2: of the season. Especially as a team, there have been 694 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 2: just in the last two months, there have been at 695 00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 2: least three or four moments where it felt like, Wow, 696 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: they're teetering on the edge of collapsing, and yet they 697 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 2: come out of it, and to come out of it 698 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 2: like as recently as earlier this week, the way that 699 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: they played against the Brewers in those four games like it, 700 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 2: even though they were still so close and still within reach, 701 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 2: it was hard to imagine them actually turning around that 702 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,760 Speaker 2: instantaneously and having a stretch like this over this weekend. 703 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 2: But it speaks pretty highly to the whole character of 704 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 2: this team and the group that they've put together on 705 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 2: this team. That is, they're sticking with each other through 706 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: what's been It's such a cliche when you talk about 707 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,280 Speaker 2: the roller coaster of a season, it really does apply 708 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 2: to this team because there have been some low moments 709 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 2: where it just does not feel like they have the 710 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 2: talents or it doesn't feel it they have the complimentary 711 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 2: pieces to figure it out. And as we get as 712 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,280 Speaker 2: close to right on the edge of finishing this season, 713 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 2: they have I think what is inarguably their most impressive 714 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,840 Speaker 2: series of the entire year. So the fact that they 715 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,800 Speaker 2: are this late in the year playing at their best, 716 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 2: we don't know if it's going to last until the 717 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,839 Speaker 2: next series. That's the lesson of this team. You don't 718 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,919 Speaker 2: know when all of a sudden they're going to run 719 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 2: into another mini slump again. That is why to me 720 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 2: it is at best a coin flip and probably a 721 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,800 Speaker 2: little bit lower than a coin flip that they ultimately 722 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 2: make the playoffs, because you simply don't know if what 723 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 2: exactly you're getting from one series to the next, but 724 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 2: you do know that they're not going to quit. And 725 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 2: as more than a few people have shared this sentiment 726 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 2: that this is such a resilience group that they've put together, 727 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 2: and I think that's why a lot of the fans 728 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 2: have fallen in love with this team is because of 729 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 2: that character that they have. 730 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:04,800 Speaker 4: That there wanted to Also, I've done the math for 731 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 4: all the tie breakers. I put it out earlier as 732 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 4: far as what it would take in a tie breaker 733 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 4: scenario for the Marlins to get knocked out, and I 734 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 4: didn't include the Giants in there, but the other four 735 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 4: teams Therizon enough Reds in the Marlins, And really, if 736 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 4: the Marlins can win two games versus the Mets, they 737 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 4: will secure the Inner Division record, which if it became 738 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 4: a tiebreaker versus the Reds, the Marlins would win win that. 739 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,760 Speaker 4: So really, in any scenario where the tiebreaker is best 740 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 4: record between all three teams or four teams, the Marlins 741 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 4: can only beat themselves. At this point, they do control 742 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 4: their own destiny and they if they tie there is, 743 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,399 Speaker 4: so it's really a good feeling going into the last 744 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,799 Speaker 4: thirteen games knowing that. And when you finish against the 745 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 4: Pirates again, don't play out to your opponent, but when 746 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 4: you're finishing the season six games versus thats three versus 747 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 4: the Pirates down the stretch, that's a good ingredient to 748 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:10,879 Speaker 4: a nice meal. 749 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: Assuming that we make. 750 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 5: The playoffs, would we rather go up against the Brewers 751 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 5: or Philadelphia assuming they clenched the first of the wildcard spots? 752 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 2: I zoned out for a second, say that one more time. 753 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 5: Assuming we make the wild card, would we rather go 754 00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 5: up against the Brewers assuming they win division, or the 755 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,759 Speaker 5: Philadelphia assuming that they're going to lock up the first 756 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 5: wildcard spots. 757 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 2: It's a really close call. There are two very different 758 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 2: profiles of teams, but I mean, there's there's not one 759 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 2: that's clearly better than the others. We've seen what happens 760 00:39:56,239 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 2: with that Brewers team when they're the team that clearly 761 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 2: has the edge in terms of what you can what 762 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 2: they expect from those starters, those veteran starters in the playoffs, 763 00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,760 Speaker 2: and their bullpen is a lot deeper than the Marlins 764 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 2: is in terms of the home field impact of it. 765 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:16,279 Speaker 2: I think both of those teams are pretty proud of 766 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 2: the kind of atmosphere they create in there and how 767 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:25,240 Speaker 2: difficult that is for visiting teams. Yeah, what the Phillies, man, 768 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 2: I would probably say that you prefer to face the 769 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 2: Brewers in there, because with the Phillies it's there are exceptions. 770 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 2: You would say the same thing about the Braves, where 771 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 2: those two teams are kind of in a tier themselves 772 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 2: in terms of the depth of their lineup and how 773 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 2: it feels like they're impossible to pitch to in some situations. 774 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,919 Speaker 2: Where As I talked about with homers being such a 775 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 2: massive influence on who wins and loses in the playoffs, 776 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 2: the Phillies are clearly more so than the Brewers, the 777 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:01,360 Speaker 2: team that is better suited to get homers from basically 778 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 2: anybody one through nine in their lineup, and for that 779 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 2: group a lot of the same guys having just made 780 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 2: it to the World Series last year and dealt with 781 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 2: that moment. The Phillies are the easy answer in terms 782 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 2: of the one that you want to avoid because of 783 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 2: how last year wents, Because of the star power that 784 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 2: they have up and down both their lineup and even 785 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 2: a little bit in their rotation. But I think that 786 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,879 Speaker 2: is the right answer that you do want to you'd 787 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 2: prefer to face the Brewers. You take your chance that 788 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 2: one of their starters has kind of an off night 789 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,759 Speaker 2: in that with few exceptions, that the Brewers team is 790 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 2: just not going to really outslug you in that environment. 791 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,719 Speaker 2: They are relying quite a bit on some of these 792 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 2: really young position players who are defensive minded guys that 793 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 2: I mean, they're playing Josh Donaldson almost every day at 794 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 2: third base as well. Like on both ends of the spectrum, 795 00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 2: they have some really shaky answers. They have some really 796 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 2: old guy in Carlos Santana and Josh Donaldson that they're 797 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 2: relying on, and then they have young guys on the 798 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:11,280 Speaker 2: other side from South Freelick and Joey Weimer, who between 799 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,240 Speaker 2: that combination that they have guys on both those sides 800 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 2: of the agent curve makes you feel that they're more 801 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 2: vulnerable in here and that on certain days they're they're 802 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 2: easier to pitch too. And yeah, I would say that 803 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 2: you'd rather if you're the Marlins, you'd rather face the Brewers. 804 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 2: I could look silly if this weekends goes poorly, and 805 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 2: if it turns out that the Brewers absolutely spoke the 806 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:38,319 Speaker 2: Marlins in both ends of that season series, it could 807 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 2: look silly. But I still think if you just crunch 808 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 2: the talents and the roster construction of both sides, that 809 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 2: the Phillies are the more explosive team, the more they're, 810 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 2: the more complete team when they're on top of their game. 811 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, you'd rather would face the Brewers in that 812 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 2: first round, which would mean getting that that would mean 813 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 2: getting this six Yeah, so as it turns out, that'd 814 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 2: be getting the sixth seed instead of the fifth seed. 815 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,080 Speaker 2: So that that's again another interesting storyline for next week. 816 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:14,120 Speaker 2: As the season becomes more clear cut. That conversation about 817 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 2: whether you'd actually want a jockey one way for position 818 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 2: instead of actually winning as many games as possible, that is, 819 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 2: that's an interesting element to throw in here. But yeah, yeah, 820 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 2: for the moment, you'd rather face the Brewers. 821 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:30,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm definitely le mean the same way. 822 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,440 Speaker 5: And if we play at the Brewers that means we 823 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,800 Speaker 5: would probably in line to play Dodgers after, in which case. 824 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 1: I could actually go to that game out in La. 825 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 5: As an La Marlins fan. So I'm kind of rooting 826 00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 5: for that scenario a bit. But thanks you guys for 827 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 5: having me on. I'll see my spot. 828 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 2: Thank you. Cool. 829 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 1: Mister Romeo is here. It looks like it is Romeo 830 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 1: last one or we have any others? 831 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,719 Speaker 2: Wait, we still got two more. After that, we have Sharifa, 832 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 2: and then we got somebody that I'm not familiar with, 833 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:06,799 Speaker 2: mister only Ds. We'll get to him at the end 834 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 2: and see what he has to say. But first to Romeo. 835 00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: All right, Romeo, I. 836 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:14,879 Speaker 6: Just want to say shout out to Joe Burrows. He's 837 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 6: winning me a He's letting me win in a franchise. 838 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 6: I'm going to get him. Sorry, grant that that just 839 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:22,399 Speaker 6: had to come out. 840 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: Second, I feel like Dane Myers. I know that, I 841 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 1: know that he got the home run in Jake Berger's right, 842 00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,359 Speaker 1: but I feel like he didn't get. 843 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:38,920 Speaker 6: Enough respect on that because he got checked over two times. 844 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 6: He kirby Ates who was not paying attention, uh too 845 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 6: to what's to Jake Berger, and and checked over twice, 846 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 6: and he ran and and the home run happens. 847 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 1: Right. That one's not as big. 848 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 6: But you can give him a little shot out there. 849 00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 6: Secondly to or one before I finish off my questions 850 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 6: because I end up asking you question. 851 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: Brian Hoyne again. Dog right, he he had. 852 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 6: A shaky yang, right, he had a shaking rough first 853 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 6: three pitches right versus but he had a bad these 854 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 6: he came back resilient and perfect pretty much. Then dang 855 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:23,799 Speaker 6: near to what to what you would want out of 856 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 6: the start of the out of an opener? And then 857 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 6: my question is, why do you guys think that the 858 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 6: Atlanta had already waved their white flat, They had already 859 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 6: given up on the they had already given up on 860 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 6: their game. 861 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,040 Speaker 1: Why do you think that they decided to waste shot? 862 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 6: Why do you think they rather they wasted Chiechi Gonzalez 863 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 6: instead of just like bringing in a position player the pitch, 864 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 6: like because you could have opened him tomorrow and not 865 00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 6: used chard Wall because start dog got pitched today, but 866 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 6: you end up having to Now you have Chi Gonzalez. 867 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 6: You could have opened him up and if he if 868 00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 6: he gives up a run, you end up going to 869 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 6: Quivera because you know their opener guy or their their 870 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 6: second inning to fifth inning, sixth inning guy in that book. 871 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,879 Speaker 6: And do you just think that Corbret's is gonna end up. 872 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: Just going on and starting, or just it's just they 873 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 1: wanted to guarantee the win. 874 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 2: I think with Cabrera is that tomorrow that he's just 875 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 2: gonna pitch that's gonna be pretty close to a regular 876 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,760 Speaker 2: start for him. They just need to take their chances 877 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 2: with it, because as volatile as he is, we know 878 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 2: how just unhittable he could be when he's on top 879 00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:35,719 Speaker 2: of his game. Was a little interesting their usage of 880 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,160 Speaker 2: Chee Chee, because really the only reason why he was 881 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 2: up here instead of Josh Simpson, who they sent down, 882 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 2: is because his ability to give length and go deep 883 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:47,879 Speaker 2: into games. And the realization was is that he came 884 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 2: in in a lotsided game, but then it got so 885 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 2: out of control with the additional insurance they put on 886 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,799 Speaker 2: that they felt it was safe enough to just stick 887 00:46:54,840 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 2: with Stallings for that final inning, even though, yeah, under 888 00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 2: normal circumstances, chi Chi is the one that you want 889 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,479 Speaker 2: to go with in garbage time. But really the best 890 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 2: case scenario is what they got today, where it is 891 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 2: so so out of reach that you're comfortable going with 892 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 2: a non pitcher and even keeping chi Chi available to 893 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 2: come back slightly sooner than he would otherwise. But we 894 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 2: mentioned this earlier in the show that I think it's 895 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:29,040 Speaker 2: unseerious of the organization to have chi Chi on this roster. 896 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 2: Now moving forward, they got through, they're almost through, i 897 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 2: should say, one more series until they're through with the 898 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,239 Speaker 2: stretch of sixteen games in sixteen days, and during this 899 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 2: period it has been important to have a fresh arm 900 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 2: available at any time that could eat up those endings. 901 00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 2: But we're now close enough to the end of the 902 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 2: season where you have to maximize the talents as on 903 00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 2: your roster. You can't really be dedicating any valuable roster 904 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 2: spots to somebody like that that isn't even performing well 905 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,760 Speaker 2: in Triple A, somebody that you just have no faith 906 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:05,640 Speaker 2: in actually performing when you get called up. I would 907 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 2: hope that they come to the same realization. And it's 908 00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 2: kind of contingent, first of all, on Brazabon being able 909 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 2: to come back. He seems to be getting pretty close 910 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 2: to returning from his eye el stance, and I think 911 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,839 Speaker 2: that'd be a pretty clear upgrade over somebody like chi 912 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 2: Chi at the end. No otherwise, I'm fine with how 913 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 2: they manage the staff today. I think it made a 914 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 2: lot of sense sticking with Lozardo as long as they did, 915 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 2: and yeah, no, I have no complaints with how they 916 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,800 Speaker 2: did things today, but it continues to be a concern 917 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 2: moving forward because they have six rotation spots and they 918 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:42,040 Speaker 2: really only have three guys that you like filling those 919 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 2: spots in Lozardo and Braxton and Yuri and the other 920 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 2: three out of six days, you're crossing your fingers and 921 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 2: you really don't know what you're going to get from 922 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 2: any of those other guys. So it's not a comfortable 923 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 2: situation to be in that that's where they are because 924 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 2: of Sandy's absence, because of all these guys that are 925 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,879 Speaker 2: throwing endings that they haven't pitched before, and they need 926 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 2: to taking these little incremental steps too to keep them healthy. 927 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:08,479 Speaker 2: So there they are really no easy answers in terms 928 00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:13,759 Speaker 2: of the way that this whole starting rotation situation is 929 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 2: playing out. And that's why it is pretty remarkable that 930 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 2: they are still in the great position that they are in, 931 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:23,720 Speaker 2: because it is is uncomfortable every few days the guys 932 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:25,839 Speaker 2: that they're forced to turn to to get them through 933 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:26,760 Speaker 2: those bulk endings. 934 00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:31,840 Speaker 6: I honestly totally forgot that cross Upon was alive, Like 935 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:34,319 Speaker 6: I like, I see him almost every day in that 936 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,959 Speaker 6: and in the dugout. But it's just one of those 937 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 6: guys that he's been with, a roller coaster player. 938 00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 1: That's what I've called a lot of these players. 939 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,200 Speaker 6: And I was gonna say, you guys know everybody, well 940 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 6: mostly everybody knows my stands on the Johnnyquatostats signan I 941 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 6: think that it was a waste some money. 942 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:53,879 Speaker 1: I think. I think I just want to tune it out. 943 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,359 Speaker 6: I think that you could have went went bracks as 944 00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 6: you're five waiting for Eurie, because that's pretty much what 945 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 6: they did. But we're not gonna get there. I think 946 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 6: that playoff baseball is a lot different than regular season baseball, 947 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 6: and that. 948 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:13,320 Speaker 1: He will shine to a certain extent in the playoffs. 949 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:16,240 Speaker 6: I think that he will not go back to Royals 950 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,799 Speaker 6: Johnny Cuato or Reds or Johnny Cuato, but to a 951 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 6: certain Cuato, that that's good enough, like last year's Cuato, 952 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 6: good enough to get you in a playoff position, to 953 00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:28,720 Speaker 6: keep the game close enough. 954 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,839 Speaker 1: For your team to win. And I feel like he. 955 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 6: Well, he gave up four runs versus five runs versus 956 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:39,880 Speaker 6: the best team in baseball, throwing ninety four being pretty 957 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:44,879 Speaker 6: much a VP pitcher all year to ninety four when 958 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 6: he touched on his cutters. But just I think that 959 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:54,719 Speaker 6: he will see someone who will probably excel in the playoffs, 960 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 6: just just for his experience in him his. 961 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 2: Time in the playoffs, I wanted to step been. There's 962 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,880 Speaker 2: a YouTube comment that reminded me, speaking of people that 963 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:05,440 Speaker 2: we didn't know, we don't remember existed, somebody reminded me 964 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 2: about six dough and then he bitched on bitch on 965 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 2: Tuesday in his grand return, and we had a lot 966 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 2: of coverage of that on fish on First. If people 967 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,359 Speaker 2: want to go back and see that, or go back 968 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 2: and watch the whole thing, that's on our YouTube channel. 969 00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 2: He was supposed to pitch today one to two innings 970 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 2: up to twenty five pitches, and Pensacola just completed their 971 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 2: game and he did not appear for them, So that 972 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 2: is interesting that we will have details about that tomorrow. 973 00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:37,279 Speaker 2: Even though I think I've made it clear that six 974 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 2: thoh is not a part of these twenty twenty three plans, 975 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,480 Speaker 2: regular season or postseason, there's no bearing on that. But 976 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 2: I understand the fascination that people have with him so 977 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:49,400 Speaker 2: quickly and aside on six though that he was tensively 978 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 2: supposed to pitch again today one to two innings, and 979 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 2: he was not used by Pensacola, So that's interesting. 980 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 1: He's probably gonna pitch tomorrow. I feel like that's not much. 981 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,240 Speaker 1: I feel like it was more. 982 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 2: He's not gonna pitch tomorrow because they have an off 983 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 2: day tomorrow. Next game there, well, the next game. The 984 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:10,600 Speaker 2: next game is a playoff game. Is now in the playoffs? 985 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 2: Are they're gonna throw a rusty six though? In a 986 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:17,720 Speaker 2: playoff game? Maybe maybe they would. Maybe player development takes 987 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:24,280 Speaker 2: priority over like winning those those minor league playoff situations. 988 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 2: But I don't know. I don't know, man, So that 989 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:31,719 Speaker 2: is that's a little surprising. He was My recollection is 990 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:33,399 Speaker 2: that he was scheduled to pitch today and he did 991 00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:33,840 Speaker 2: not do so. 992 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why I was. 993 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,520 Speaker 6: I was actually gonna that was my next question. If 994 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 6: you didn't come me off, that was the next question. 995 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 6: I was gonna ask you what ended up happening at 996 00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:44,320 Speaker 6: sixth though, because I know that Jeffrey Yon was pitching 997 00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:47,280 Speaker 6: it in the bottom of the eighth and well, Pensecolo 998 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 6: is winning six to four, six to three, or are 999 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,399 Speaker 6: they gonna try him out as a closure. 1000 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 1: In a situation that I don't know, You never know. 1001 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:00,479 Speaker 6: You can always find a new way to us sixth 1002 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:04,440 Speaker 6: those Sanchez because he's not he's clearly not gonna be 1003 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,759 Speaker 6: a starter on the Miami Marlins. I'm sorry to breaking 1004 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,040 Speaker 6: to the guys and people that believe that he would. 1005 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: He's just he's I don't think that he's touching eighty 1006 00:53:15,080 --> 00:53:16,840 Speaker 1: five like I think that he was just trying to 1007 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 1: figure out. 1008 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:21,400 Speaker 6: You know, taking it slow, maybe twenty five thirty five percent. 1009 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 6: He knows that he's not gonna come back this year. 1010 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 6: But I'm not thinking that he's touching ninety seven like 1011 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 6: he did in that that extended spring training game that 1012 00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 6: he pitched uh in March. 1013 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: I think that he's gonna be in the middle. 1014 00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:36,759 Speaker 6: It's gonna be like a Johnny Cuato pretty much near 1015 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 6: around there, same weight and every same tige pretty much 1016 00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:45,360 Speaker 6: just touching ninety four, can touch ninety five, ninety six maybe, 1017 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 6: and and then. 1018 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 1: His off speed stuff because that curntball was nasty. I'm 1019 00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:49,720 Speaker 1: not gonna lie. 1020 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 6: I watched I wasted three dollars, I wasted three toa balloons. 1021 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:57,799 Speaker 1: To buy to watch that one. Outing mm hm, and 1022 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,400 Speaker 1: it was it was good. He that curveball was decent, 1023 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 1: the slider was decent. 1024 00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 6: All right, but it's better than what you expected from 1025 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:10,320 Speaker 6: a guy who hasn't pitched or hasn't even been alive 1026 00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:13,319 Speaker 6: for three years, like because don't even knows where that 1027 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:13,839 Speaker 6: guy was at. 1028 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:18,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you and I have slightly different player evaluation perspectives. 1029 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 1: It seems I was. 1030 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,879 Speaker 2: I was not super impressed with what I saw right 1031 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:27,879 Speaker 2: there anyway, And he's in a position where every every 1032 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:31,000 Speaker 2: pitch he throws competitively is pretty crucial to ensuring that 1033 00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 2: he has a future in baseball. He's not a lack 1034 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,279 Speaker 2: to stay on this team's rosters throughout the offseason. If 1035 00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:40,800 Speaker 2: he looks totally cooked out there, there is some pressure 1036 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 2: on him there. It's been a few years of patients. 1037 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 2: It's that patience is not going to extend very much 1038 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 2: longer unless he looks like a baseball player. 1039 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,240 Speaker 1: Again, if you were to get. 1040 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:57,120 Speaker 6: DFF, do you think a team takes a chance. Honestly, 1041 00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,359 Speaker 6: I think that at any team. I think it would 1042 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:01,600 Speaker 6: be Atlanta. But besides that, do you think a team 1043 00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 6: really goes out and gives him a champions to play 1044 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:04,040 Speaker 6: a game of baseball? 1045 00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 2: Well, we'll get a chance to go to spring training 1046 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,480 Speaker 2: with another team, he's not going to be claimed. He 1047 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 2: would go unclaims. He absolutely would go unclaims because he's 1048 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,759 Speaker 2: now out of options above all else, Like this year, 1049 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,160 Speaker 2: he's just a minor league player right now. He's stowed 1050 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 2: in the minors, and this is the last year that 1051 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 2: the Marlins can do that with him because they've exhausted 1052 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 2: those options already the last few years by having him 1053 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 2: on the minor league il during that period. So because 1054 00:55:29,600 --> 00:55:33,000 Speaker 2: he can't even work on him as a project in 1055 00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 2: the minor leagues throughout next year with him being on 1056 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:39,279 Speaker 2: the roster, like he'd just be, he'd be a non 1057 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:42,400 Speaker 2: roster minor leaguer moving forward. That is his future. That 1058 00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:47,080 Speaker 2: is his very likely outcome, unless a thunderbolt comes out 1059 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:50,440 Speaker 2: of his arm in his one of his final appearances 1060 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 2: of this minor league season, like he just doesn't look 1061 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 2: like a rosterable major league pitcher. Unfortunately, that this the 1062 00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:01,200 Speaker 2: injury has totally derailed him, and that that sucks above 1063 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 2: all else. 1064 00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:07,440 Speaker 1: Thank you, that's all I'm I'm going to come this. 1065 00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,319 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go uh shout out to everybody.

I give him a shout out. 1069 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:21,600 Speaker 1: That's so sad. 1070 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 2: He doesn't want to be associated with you. He's just 1071 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:25,720 Speaker 2: playing nice. He's just been polite in person. 1072 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:31,839 Speaker 6: I was gonna say, I don't know who's been watching, and. 1073 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 1: He's not here either. 1074 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 6: But l MS but the teamed up uh Matt menu 1075 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:39,319 Speaker 6: with everything caps and it says let's get spicy.

We can go to Sharif. 1091 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 2: Now I know he's been in here a while. One 1092 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 2: of our usuals. What's on your mind, Sharif?

What's on your mind? I wonder 1096 00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:50,200 Speaker 2: if people can still hear me? 1097 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:51,920 Speaker 1: Good you ning. 1098 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 7: Actually I'm just just gidding back on.

And what boy Eli, I am 1101 00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 1: very excited. What can I What can I say? Just really? 1102 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 7: One thing I want to touch on is that Jazz 1103 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 7: is actually he got to be listed in to West 1104 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 7: Side because he's doing exactly what what would cause this 1105 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 7: team to win win you know over to he put 1106 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 7: a bun down. 1107 00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:26,040 Speaker 1: You know you do winning plays. 1108 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,160 Speaker 7: You know, it's not about all about I can just 1109 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:31,840 Speaker 7: drive everyone in, like Skip said after the game, so 1110 00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:35,800 Speaker 7: someone's listening, someone's actually performing it and doing it. 1111 00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:36,760 Speaker 1: So I was right. 1112 00:58:37,400 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 7: But I'm just grateful for it because it's causing us 1113 00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,480 Speaker 7: to win. Other than the home runs, thank. 1114 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 2: You, it's been incredible. Yeah, he did everything you'd want 1115 00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 2: to see in this particular series, the Grand Slams take 1116 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 2: a lot of the attention. He also laid down at 1117 00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,880 Speaker 2: least one bunch hit and in this final game, the 1118 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 2: discipline that he showed on some close pitches to take 1119 00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:04,120 Speaker 2: three walks in this final game, that's something that is 1120 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 2: more often than not it's absence from his game to 1121 00:59:07,360 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 2: be that discipline in those situations. So he had about 1122 00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:15,680 Speaker 2: his completes and offensive series. Between all that and the 1123 00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 2: stolen bases, it was everything checked, every box that you 1124 00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:22,680 Speaker 2: can want from him. Just gotta keep him healthy in 1125 00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 2: this final stretch, and if I can look ahead to 1126 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 2: some of these upcoming matchups, I don't think they face 1127 00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:32,919 Speaker 2: a ton of lefties now from here through the rest 1128 00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,680 Speaker 2: of the season, between the current makeup of the Mets 1129 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 2: rotation and then the Brewers, I think he's set up 1130 00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 2: for the stars are aligning for him to be a 1131 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 2: star and continue to put up great numbers down the stretch. 1132 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 2: Because of how how this final couple weeks are playing out, 1133 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 2: He's in a very good space and you just would 1134 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 2: love to keep going. 1135 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:59,280 Speaker 7: I have another question for you both, what's your take 1136 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:06,120 Speaker 7: on Chee Chee. I guess weeks coming into this debut again, I, 1137 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:10,520 Speaker 7: as you know, lack of a better use of words, 1138 01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:13,640 Speaker 7: but what do you We'll hear our thoughts on Chien 1139 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:17,560 Speaker 7: Chi his stuff as I've never seen him pitch, but 1140 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 7: i've actually seen him been been It's been said that 1141 01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:24,480 Speaker 7: he was one of those potential guys coming up in September. 1142 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:29,600 Speaker 1: So and thank you, thank you guys, Yes, thank you. 1143 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:32,120 Speaker 1: My thoughts are he's really bad and the only reason 1144 01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 1: why he was up was because he's a He's a 1145 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: bulk guy that I've always not been a fan of 1146 01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 1: che Che. He serves one purpose see innings. He did 1147 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 1: that today a lot of two runs while doing it. 1148 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:48,120 Speaker 1: But he's no answer of any kind to the Morrows 1149 01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 1: in my opinion. 1150 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:53,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I would agree on that. I was a 1151 01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:56,280 Speaker 2: little confused as too well. I understand why he was 1152 01:00:56,280 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 2: called up today just in case that they needed several 1153 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 2: innings in a life sided game. As it turned out, 1154 01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 2: this game was so lopsided that they were able to 1155 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 2: go with a position player at the end and feel 1156 01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:10,200 Speaker 2: comfortable in doing so. Beyond that, I personally would look 1157 01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 2: at alternatives immediately. I think you're at a stage of 1158 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 2: the season where that roster spot needs to go with 1159 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 2: somebody that you're more confident can actually get outs in 1160 01:01:18,520 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 2: that situation. So whether it is Anthony Maldonado, the best 1161 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:26,280 Speaker 2: case scenario is that Huascar Brosabon is ready to go. Well, 1162 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 2: an update on him tomorrow. I don't think he's quite ready, 1163 01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:33,000 Speaker 2: but he's getting pretty close. So if Brosabon is fully healthy, 1164 01:01:33,120 --> 01:01:34,960 Speaker 2: that would be huge, and that would be a pretty 1165 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 2: obvious substitution to make anything on Bender Now. As last 1166 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:45,439 Speaker 2: was mentioned to us, he has thrown I think he's 1167 01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:48,440 Speaker 2: thrown live batting practice and he has actually faced some 1168 01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 2: live hitters. It's just that he is so far away 1169 01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 2: from game action, like you can't bring him back unless 1170 01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 2: he actually goes on some sort of rehabit sign and 1171 01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,200 Speaker 2: it's asking a little too much in terms of what 1172 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,560 Speaker 2: his his stuff is, I have no clue at this moment. Yeah, 1173 01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 2: that's a pretty crucial factor, of course. It's it's good 1174 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:11,080 Speaker 2: that he is basically he's recovered, it's just that he 1175 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 2: now doesn't He hasn't had any game experience all year, 1176 01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 2: and we don't have any confirmation in terms of what 1177 01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:18,760 Speaker 2: his stuff is looking like. So I'd be pretty shocked 1178 01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:22,600 Speaker 2: if he's back either now or during the postseason, just 1179 01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:25,520 Speaker 2: because when you from that sort of layoff, you really 1180 01:02:25,560 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 2: want to be in some sort of competitive situation and 1181 01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 2: go through all the necessary steps to do so. So, 1182 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 2: in all likelihood that is that's going to be a 1183 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 2: spring training thing with him. But at least he's going 1184 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 2: to go into the off season fully recovered, going into 1185 01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:43,560 Speaker 2: a normal off season instead of being in rehab mode 1186 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 2: like he was this past winner. 1187 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 1: All right, thank you, guys. I guess that's so. 1188 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 7: I guess we just have to depend on fucking robertson 1189 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 7: coming out. I think Mel will be able to get 1190 01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:58,920 Speaker 7: to them and help them out. 1191 01:02:59,440 --> 01:02:59,800 Speaker 1: I would. 1192 01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:02,120 Speaker 7: I'm I'm interested to see what Mel will do with 1193 01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:06,720 Speaker 7: Weathers in ninety seven ninety eight topping out if Mel 1194 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 7: didn't get him straightened out even a bit at me. Yeah, so, 1195 01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:13,360 Speaker 7: I guess we're going with what we have. But thank you, guys. 1196 01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 7: I appreciate the community. 1197 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:16,520 Speaker 1: And love you all. 1198 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:19,000 Speaker 2: We love you too, Thank you. 1199 01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 1: Is Ryan going to take us home here? How many 1200 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:24,760 Speaker 1: else do we have? 1201 01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:28,960 Speaker 2: We got one more right after him, only DS. We'll 1202 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,520 Speaker 2: bring in that person right after Ryan, and then that 1203 01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 2: should do it. 1204 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:36,760 Speaker 8: Hi, God got brush to night, so I just finished 1205 01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:40,320 Speaker 8: watching the Giants game wild game. We scored zero points 1206 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,000 Speaker 8: in the first half and then we scored thirty one 1207 01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:45,720 Speaker 8: in the second half to make an insane comeback. 1208 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 1: So I haven't really been locked down. 1209 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:49,920 Speaker 9: The Marlins today and watching a ton of football. But 1210 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,760 Speaker 9: what I do know is that we won big jack 1211 01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:55,439 Speaker 9: at the Grand Slam. But today I wanted to ask 1212 01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 9: about and I know I'm not saying we're making the postseason, 1213 01:03:59,080 --> 01:03:59,680 Speaker 9: but I wanted to. 1214 01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:02,400 Speaker 1: Ask you guys, what do you think? 1215 01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:04,760 Speaker 8: And it could depend on who we play, but what 1216 01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:07,800 Speaker 8: do you think the Marlins postseason rotation would look like? 1217 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:10,080 Speaker 1: Just like who would they who they would. 1218 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,960 Speaker 8: Start in their first, second, and third games in a 1219 01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:15,920 Speaker 8: wild card Because I think it's very interesting with his 1220 01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:20,400 Speaker 8: dus who has more experienced, but also your repair as 1221 01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:22,240 Speaker 8: who like he can't go too many innings for you, 1222 01:04:22,360 --> 01:04:23,960 Speaker 8: but you might want to let him go six in 1223 01:04:24,040 --> 01:04:25,120 Speaker 8: a big postseason game. 1224 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:27,400 Speaker 1: And I don't know, I'm just wondering what you guys 1225 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:27,920 Speaker 1: think on that. 1226 01:04:29,480 --> 01:04:31,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, we did touch on this a little earlier in 1227 01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:35,280 Speaker 2: the show on that to me, Lozardo would be your 1228 01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 2: clear game one starter in here because of his combination 1229 01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:43,280 Speaker 2: of his whole body of work as a pitcher. Also 1230 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:47,600 Speaker 2: the fact that he's had some postseason experience and uh, 1231 01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 2: you know recently biased the fact that we've seen him 1232 01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:53,720 Speaker 2: as recently today going up against a playoff caliber lineup 1233 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:59,160 Speaker 2: and be amazing in doing so, even without in my opinion, 1234 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 2: he wasn't even at his A plus game today and 1235 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 2: yet he still had all that success. That just speaks 1236 01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:07,520 Speaker 2: to the quality of the stuff that he does have 1237 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:09,600 Speaker 2: in the several ways that he can get out even 1238 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 2: top hitters, regardless of he's on top of his game. 1239 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,640 Speaker 2: That has to be your number one guy to me 1240 01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:17,720 Speaker 2: in terms of the order of Braxton and your I 1241 01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:21,160 Speaker 2: think that will depend on kind of how the things 1242 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:24,680 Speaker 2: Really that's a little too early to call which order 1243 01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,200 Speaker 2: you'd want to put them in. I think in both cases. 1244 01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 2: In all cases, when it comes to these playoff starters, 1245 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:31,720 Speaker 2: they're going to be on a shorter leash and they 1246 01:05:31,720 --> 01:05:34,160 Speaker 2: would be in the regular season. This plays out year 1247 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:37,600 Speaker 2: after year where your bullpen ends up pitching the majority 1248 01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 2: of the innings because you just don't trust anybody. It's 1249 01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,000 Speaker 2: not that you don't trust the pitchers, it's just that 1250 01:05:42,040 --> 01:05:44,840 Speaker 2: when you're going up against the very best lineups, especially 1251 01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:46,760 Speaker 2: if it turns out this way and they go they 1252 01:05:46,760 --> 01:05:50,120 Speaker 2: get the well, if they do end up facing let's 1253 01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 2: say the Phillies, and the Phillies have that super deep 1254 01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:54,760 Speaker 2: lineup where almost anybody can hurt you, that's where you're 1255 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,360 Speaker 2: going to have to have a really short leash and 1256 01:05:56,400 --> 01:06:00,320 Speaker 2: just go to your relievers because you want to all 1257 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 2: costs avoid allowing home runs. And the one of the 1258 01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:08,360 Speaker 2: biggest risk factors and allowing guys to square you up 1259 01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 2: and do damage is when you face them multiple times 1260 01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:13,200 Speaker 2: in the same game. Regardless of who they go to. 1261 01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:14,720 Speaker 2: I think they're all going to be on a short leash, 1262 01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:17,240 Speaker 2: but those are. That's the clear three to me is 1263 01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:22,080 Speaker 2: having Lizardo, Braxton and Uri in there, especially Braxton probably 1264 01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 2: being on a short leash, and perhaps even you put 1265 01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 2: in a situation where Braxton has more so than Yuri. 1266 01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:31,720 Speaker 2: At least Braxton has a little bit of experience pitching 1267 01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 2: out of a bullpen, so he's gonna be prominently involved 1268 01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:38,440 Speaker 2: if they get to get to the playoffs. But potentially 1269 01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:41,200 Speaker 2: he's somebody that you want to have available if necessary, 1270 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:43,440 Speaker 2: to pitch out of the pen in a certain situation, 1271 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:46,960 Speaker 2: maybe even before his spot in the playoff rotation comes up. 1272 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:50,200 Speaker 2: I think he's somebody that they value very highly, but 1273 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:55,600 Speaker 2: they also value his versatility a little bit and his maturity. Yeah, 1274 01:06:55,600 --> 01:06:57,680 Speaker 2: with Yuri, he just doesn't know anything else other than 1275 01:06:57,800 --> 01:07:01,840 Speaker 2: starting games, so he would be I think, still used 1276 01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 2: in that role moving forward with him more so than 1277 01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:08,000 Speaker 2: everybody else, though, They're gonna be so super cautious down 1278 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 2: the stretch. It's a couple starts between now and then, 1279 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,120 Speaker 2: and if there's any warning signs in those final couple 1280 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:17,800 Speaker 2: starts that he's worn down after pitching way more innings 1281 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:21,400 Speaker 2: than he's ever pitched before, that that's the one guy 1282 01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,120 Speaker 2: that they're knowing how valuable he is to his future. 1283 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:28,320 Speaker 2: Like it's it's not even a total given that he's 1284 01:07:28,360 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 2: going to be that it's gonna be a fascinating decision. 1285 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 2: They are in that Steven Strasburg rookie year territory with him, 1286 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:38,840 Speaker 2: where even now he's pitching about as many endings as 1287 01:07:39,040 --> 01:07:42,640 Speaker 2: they thought was even possible, and you're really pushing it 1288 01:07:42,680 --> 01:07:45,760 Speaker 2: once you get to October, you're really bending the original 1289 01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:49,280 Speaker 2: plan that they had. That's why I think even now 1290 01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:51,400 Speaker 2: it will feel pretty close to it, but it still 1291 01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 2: feels a little premature because every single time that Uri 1292 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,840 Speaker 2: takes the down between now and then, you got to 1293 01:07:56,840 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 2: be extremely careful with him, just knowing how important he 1294 01:08:00,720 --> 01:08:04,480 Speaker 2: is to the next decade of Marlin's baseball. As as 1295 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 2: cool as it is, as important as his playoff run is, 1296 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 2: it's not totally everything to this franchise, especially when you 1297 01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 2: have somebody like him in the middle of it that 1298 01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:15,360 Speaker 2: is so important to what they do. They're gonna be 1299 01:08:15,400 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 2: really careful with him. Lozardo is the one that I 1300 01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 2: think is closest to having everybody's full trust, and you know, 1301 01:08:22,920 --> 01:08:25,200 Speaker 2: to me, even though there's been some inconsistency the second 1302 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:33,720 Speaker 2: half to the season, that's my game one guy. 1303 01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:36,639 Speaker 1: Any other questions, mister Ryan. 1304 01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:40,479 Speaker 8: Yeah, I wanted to ask, so I know you guys 1305 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:43,200 Speaker 8: touched on Jazz so real quickly. I was wondering, do 1306 01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:46,559 Speaker 8: you guys think that the Jazz success is mostly coming 1307 01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 8: from him changing a stance, because I've noticed that since 1308 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,800 Speaker 8: he changed his stance, like, he's been really hitting left 1309 01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:53,120 Speaker 8: as well. 1310 01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 1: So do you guys think that's the main reason. 1311 01:08:57,560 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 2: The main reason might be overstated, it it has been 1312 01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 2: a factor just in general, the work that he has 1313 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 2: put in behind the scenes, getting repetition against lefties and 1314 01:09:09,360 --> 01:09:11,759 Speaker 2: just for him, so much of it has been about 1315 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:15,120 Speaker 2: seeing the ball the same from being in a platoon 1316 01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:19,560 Speaker 2: advantage compared to facing right eyes. And if he's this 1317 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,240 Speaker 2: stance gets him a slightly better line of sight of 1318 01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:26,479 Speaker 2: the ball coming out of lefti's hands, that helps. Yeah, 1319 01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:30,040 Speaker 2: it's a combination of things that have played a role 1320 01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:34,519 Speaker 2: into it. It's been extremely encouraging to see even though 1321 01:09:36,080 --> 01:09:37,880 Speaker 2: most of the power is still going to come against 1322 01:09:37,880 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 2: facing right handed pitching. 1323 01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 1: It is. 1324 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,880 Speaker 2: It's crucial and vital to like feel comfortable having him 1325 01:09:42,920 --> 01:09:47,519 Speaker 2: start against lefties, and now we have a growing sample size. 1326 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:51,360 Speaker 2: The last probably even before this stance change a little 1327 01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:53,840 Speaker 2: bit before, is when you started to see better quality 1328 01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:58,400 Speaker 2: of that that's for him against lefties. Yeah, it's all 1329 01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:01,120 Speaker 2: just come together for him where you do feel like 1330 01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:04,639 Speaker 2: this is he is, for the moment being the complete 1331 01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:09,200 Speaker 2: version of himself, and part of that being healthy, part 1332 01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:13,080 Speaker 2: of that just being more experienced than he has been, 1333 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:15,760 Speaker 2: and the culmination of all the work that he's put 1334 01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:18,920 Speaker 2: in with the coaches kind of bearing fruit at this point. 1335 01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:23,160 Speaker 2: That stuff doesn't always manifest immediately. He was one of 1336 01:10:23,479 --> 01:10:26,439 Speaker 2: several guys that it feels like ancient history. He was 1337 01:10:26,479 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 2: not hitting well for an early portion of the year, 1338 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:31,080 Speaker 2: almost all the way up to his original injury, like 1339 01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:33,799 Speaker 2: he was just not very good hitter, even against righties. 1340 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:37,639 Speaker 2: And the way that he has changed over a pretty 1341 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 2: big sample ever since coming back from the original injury. 1342 01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:42,639 Speaker 2: You could go back to the end of June against 1343 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,360 Speaker 2: the Red Sox. That was another inflection moment which Azz 1344 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:49,200 Speaker 2: during that series in Fenway, where it felt almost like this, 1345 01:10:49,320 --> 01:10:53,200 Speaker 2: where it felt like he is a complete that is 1346 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:56,160 Speaker 2: the complete version of himself when everything is going well. 1347 01:10:56,360 --> 01:10:58,360 Speaker 2: So it's not as simple to say that the stance 1348 01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:01,719 Speaker 2: has changed everything. It's there's now a pretty big sample 1349 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,599 Speaker 2: when he's been available over the last three months or so, 1350 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:07,120 Speaker 2: he's been one of the better hitters in baseball. He 1351 01:11:07,200 --> 01:11:12,679 Speaker 2: really has, especially for a center fielder. And you can't 1352 01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:16,799 Speaker 2: fully trust him to keep it up because his history 1353 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:19,560 Speaker 2: would say that there's just been some inconsistency in there 1354 01:11:19,720 --> 01:11:22,080 Speaker 2: the fact that, but for him to show it at 1355 01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:23,720 Speaker 2: this moment when we're so close to the ends and 1356 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:25,560 Speaker 2: so the field, that's possible that he does sustand it 1357 01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:27,240 Speaker 2: just for a couple of weeks needed to get them 1358 01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:33,160 Speaker 2: into the playoffs. That's so thrilling to have because we 1359 01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:35,000 Speaker 2: were saying for most of this year how important he 1360 01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:37,400 Speaker 2: would be to their team's success. For them to reach 1361 01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 2: this point with him not fully having the year that 1362 01:11:40,360 --> 01:11:43,080 Speaker 2: he was supposed to have, it has felt like a 1363 01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:45,559 Speaker 2: pretty lucky, pretty fortunate that they've been able to do that. 1364 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:47,759 Speaker 2: They are going to need him these last couple of weeks. 1365 01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:52,040 Speaker 2: Their path to holding on to this wild card spot 1366 01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:54,960 Speaker 2: is it's going to hinge on him still being in 1367 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:57,800 Speaker 2: there every day and affecting the game in a bunch 1368 01:11:57,840 --> 01:12:00,000 Speaker 2: of different ways that he can both offensively and defense. 1369 01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:06,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, thank you, And I'm really excited with Jazz, especially if. 1370 01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:08,040 Speaker 1: We could get this in October. 1371 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:11,360 Speaker 8: And he has talent to carry his scene on his 1372 01:12:11,439 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 8: back along with the Riise Solar Ballenberger. 1373 01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:16,920 Speaker 1: But I'm a head out now. Thank you guys again 1374 01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:17,680 Speaker 1: for all that you do. 1375 01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 2: And yeah, go Fish, Thank you Ryan. 1376 01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:27,519 Speaker 1: All Right, I guess whichever one of the next two 1377 01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:29,599 Speaker 1: wants to go first, can go and we'll close out 1378 01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:30,400 Speaker 1: with them. 1379 01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:35,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, with Laurella and only I'm gonna go first. 1380 01:12:36,240 --> 01:12:36,400 Speaker 6: Good. 1381 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, because we tried like three different times to get 1382 01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:39,200 Speaker 2: you in as a speaker. 1383 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:42,280 Speaker 10: Yeah, it was leg and it was you make me speaker, 1384 01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:43,360 Speaker 10: and I couldn't hear anything. 1385 01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:44,800 Speaker 2: Go ahead. 1386 01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:46,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a couple of questions. 1387 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,439 Speaker 10: The first one is, I'm I was looking at the 1388 01:12:50,479 --> 01:12:54,280 Speaker 10: schedules of the other like wild card teams and some 1389 01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:56,439 Speaker 10: of them are playing some pretty like they're either playing 1390 01:12:56,439 --> 01:13:00,120 Speaker 10: each other or playing some tough teams, especially Philadelphia. Do 1391 01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:03,040 Speaker 10: you think that, you know, if Atlanta gets there their 1392 01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:06,680 Speaker 10: stuff back together, the Marlins could potentially get to the 1393 01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:09,720 Speaker 10: four spot, to the. 1394 01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:11,479 Speaker 2: Four spots against the Phillies. 1395 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 10: Uh well, well, the Braves are playing Philadelphia this week 1396 01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:19,640 Speaker 10: in Atlanta, and that's request. 1397 01:13:20,040 --> 01:13:22,600 Speaker 2: Well, let's see what what is the gap at this 1398 01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:26,559 Speaker 2: moment between them. It's they do own the tiebreaker against 1399 01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:30,600 Speaker 2: the Phillies. That does help owning the typebreaker against basically everybody. 1400 01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 2: It is a three and a half game gap right 1401 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:38,920 Speaker 2: now between them and uh is it wasn't probable to 1402 01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:41,240 Speaker 2: sweep the Braves, and it feels even more improbable that 1403 01:13:41,240 --> 01:13:43,680 Speaker 2: the Braves would continue to slide like this with all 1404 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,240 Speaker 2: the guys that they have. Maybe they're they're overdue to 1405 01:13:46,680 --> 01:13:50,919 Speaker 2: bounce back and have that. Yeah, I would feel relatively 1406 01:13:50,960 --> 01:13:54,320 Speaker 2: confident that the gap could narrow a little bit. But yeah, 1407 01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:56,280 Speaker 2: at the same time, with this Marlins team, they've kind 1408 01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:58,000 Speaker 2: of shown to us over a pretty big sample that 1409 01:13:58,560 --> 01:14:02,479 Speaker 2: even when they have these really invigorating series, it doesn't 1410 01:14:02,520 --> 01:14:05,760 Speaker 2: necessarily carry over to even the next series with them, 1411 01:14:05,800 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 2: It's been a lot of ups and downs. It is 1412 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:11,559 Speaker 2: possible to catch them, but it would require on the 1413 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:15,360 Speaker 2: Marlins end to win at least nine if you're remaining 1414 01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 2: games something like that. Nine and three would probably get 1415 01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:21,760 Speaker 2: it done to catch them. Most optimistically, it would be 1416 01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:27,200 Speaker 2: eight and four, but I yeah, I think that's still 1417 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:29,760 Speaker 2: pretty unlikely. It is enough of a blessing that the 1418 01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 2: second spot has come into play again that well, the 1419 01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:35,920 Speaker 2: fifth spot, the fifth seed, the second wild card that 1420 01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:38,320 Speaker 2: I thought it was pretty close to that ship sailing. 1421 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 2: But as we're talking right now, are the Cubs losing 1422 01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:44,120 Speaker 2: yet again. They could actually be ahead of the Cubs 1423 01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:47,080 Speaker 2: by the end of the night. That is wild to 1424 01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:49,559 Speaker 2: think about. Yeah, it's enough of a blessing that the 1425 01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:52,320 Speaker 2: second wild card and that fifth seed is in play, 1426 01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:56,200 Speaker 2: But yeah, I would be shocked if they end up 1427 01:14:56,520 --> 01:14:59,040 Speaker 2: if they want to host playoff games, I'm pretty sure 1428 01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:00,960 Speaker 2: you'd have to make it to the the division series 1429 01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,320 Speaker 2: to make that possible, doesn't I don't see a path 1430 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:06,479 Speaker 2: to them getting the fourth seed just because of the 1431 01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:10,800 Speaker 2: Phillies themselves are pretty immune to extended slumps, and so 1432 01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:13,680 Speaker 2: they're coming off a disappointing series of their own a 1433 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:16,920 Speaker 2: little bit. So yeah, I wouldn't get too excited about 1434 01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:17,800 Speaker 2: that possibility. 1435 01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:21,599 Speaker 1: My last question is. 1436 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 10: Current, who you think gets left off the playoff roster 1437 01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:26,960 Speaker 10: at the moment? 1438 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:28,080 Speaker 1: Do you think they. 1439 01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:31,400 Speaker 10: Let Edwards get on the playoff roster? Do you think 1440 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:34,920 Speaker 10: they drop Hampson? Who do you think gets left off? 1441 01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a little really to be looking at that. Yeah, well, 1442 01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:48,599 Speaker 2: I don't think to talk about Hampson. Hampson's been so 1443 01:15:49,320 --> 01:15:52,680 Speaker 2: consistently good. I don't think Hampson's in any danger of 1444 01:15:52,720 --> 01:15:54,760 Speaker 2: being left off if they make it in. He's been 1445 01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 2: better than Birdie this year. He's been obviously, he's been 1446 01:15:58,640 --> 01:16:01,679 Speaker 2: around a lot longer than Edwards. Is a lot larger 1447 01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 2: sample of him being a solid hitter this year than 1448 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:07,559 Speaker 2: with Edwards, and he is a lot more versatile at 1449 01:16:07,640 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 2: least being a serviceable a serviceable fielder at several different 1450 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:15,160 Speaker 2: spots and Edward. Edwards is still unproven there, so Hampson 1451 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:18,400 Speaker 2: I feel is a virtual lock to be on. The 1452 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:21,519 Speaker 2: interesting question is you know they've made it this far 1453 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 2: into the season, still having Joey Wendall around, still having 1454 01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:28,280 Speaker 2: Yuli Gurriel around, despite those guys just not being very 1455 01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:31,200 Speaker 2: good baseball players, and once you get to the postseason, 1456 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 2: you know you can still have them on the team 1457 01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:36,280 Speaker 2: without putting them on the roster. At that point, I 1458 01:16:36,280 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 2: think both of those guys will need to be re 1459 01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:40,800 Speaker 2: evaluated when you when they headed into the playoffs. Even 1460 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,920 Speaker 2: if they it doesn't feel like they've been in much 1461 01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:46,479 Speaker 2: danger this year. The team has been loyal to them 1462 01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:49,760 Speaker 2: and has valued their intangibles as well. Once once you 1463 01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:53,680 Speaker 2: actually get to elimination games, that that mindset and that 1464 01:16:53,720 --> 01:16:56,519 Speaker 2: approach is going to change. So in both of their cases, 1465 01:16:57,360 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 2: probably more so with Yulie, is now that you have 1466 01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:04,280 Speaker 2: you have so Lair healthy and now we've had more 1467 01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:06,800 Speaker 2: of a sample of a rise filling in that first base. 1468 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 2: I think you Wi is somebody that would be on 1469 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:13,439 Speaker 2: the hot seat heading into the postseason, whether they feel 1470 01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:17,280 Speaker 2: he does enough to merit an active spot. He gets 1471 01:17:17,280 --> 01:17:19,680 Speaker 2: will be around the team without actually being on the 1472 01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 2: team for those most important games. That's that's something that's 1473 01:17:22,120 --> 01:17:26,440 Speaker 2: somebody that I would definitely highlight as a an adjustment 1474 01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:28,720 Speaker 2: that they could make where he's barely playing at all 1475 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:31,280 Speaker 2: now when everybody's healthy. So it's a bit of a 1476 01:17:31,320 --> 01:17:34,040 Speaker 2: stretch to say that he should be on that roster 1477 01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:37,559 Speaker 2: when he's only good for one big hit every couple 1478 01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 2: of months. Thanks, Why are you raising her hands? 1479 01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:42,599 Speaker 1: Isaac? 1480 01:17:43,160 --> 01:17:43,719 Speaker 2: You can talk. 1481 01:17:43,880 --> 01:17:44,599 Speaker 4: I can't. 1482 01:17:44,720 --> 01:17:47,439 Speaker 1: I can't even look. I guess I don't raise my head. 1483 01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:51,400 Speaker 11: Sure, go ahead, fish On, Yeah, that's why I have 1484 01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:52,400 Speaker 11: my head raised. 1485 01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:57,200 Speaker 1: You are polite. You were polite. Go ahead, Isaac? Right? 1486 01:17:57,240 --> 01:17:59,320 Speaker 11: And I was that was not going to raise my hair, 1487 01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 11: but just yes, talking about the seeding, and I thought, 1488 01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:03,479 Speaker 11: now it's sort of relevant, especially with the Cups sort 1489 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 11: of down turn. But it's pretty clear that being the 1490 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 11: number six seed is more favorable than being the number 1491 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,640 Speaker 11: five seeds. So I don't know whether you see this 1492 01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:15,040 Speaker 11: team maybe taking their foot off. Obviously that's not gonna happen, 1493 01:18:15,120 --> 01:18:17,880 Speaker 11: but you see them sort of trying to rather try 1494 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:20,160 Speaker 11: to get the sixteen, because if you are number six, 1495 01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:25,639 Speaker 11: you face i'm sorry, you face the worst division winner. 1496 01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:28,680 Speaker 11: It's your better you're better off being number six, so 1497 01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:31,839 Speaker 11: you're facing the worst division winner, which is the Brewers 1498 01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:33,559 Speaker 11: in this case, And if you're number five, you're facing 1499 01:18:33,560 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 11: the Phillies, which is no walk in the park. So 1500 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:37,719 Speaker 11: I think any team would rather be the number sixty. 1501 01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:40,000 Speaker 11: So how do you think that goes about playing out 1502 01:18:40,080 --> 01:18:41,240 Speaker 11: later in the regular season. 1503 01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 1: Well, I would say I think it's so tight right 1504 01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:46,679 Speaker 1: now that they may not have control over it, like right, 1505 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:50,280 Speaker 1: of course, if they were to eventually Yeah, sorry I 1506 01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 1: worded it like an idiot, but yeah, everyone would rather 1507 01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 1: have the number six seeds. So right, yeah, that is 1508 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:58,240 Speaker 1: more favorable, but tomorrows may not have a choice. Like 1509 01:18:58,280 --> 01:19:02,200 Speaker 1: we talked about how midway through this show, the Marlins 1510 01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:04,240 Speaker 1: own a lot of these tiebreakers. I believe they owned 1511 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:06,000 Speaker 1: tie breakers over three of the four teams that they're 1512 01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:09,320 Speaker 1: competing with. So if the Cubs really fall back into it, 1513 01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:12,519 Speaker 1: which I mean they have, I think if the Dimonbacks win, 1514 01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:16,439 Speaker 1: the Cubs are are I guess technically still tied quote 1515 01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:18,400 Speaker 1: unquote with the Marlins. But if the season where it 1516 01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:21,280 Speaker 1: to magically get cut today, the Marlins will get that 1517 01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:25,160 Speaker 1: six seed because the tiebreakers, so it may be out 1518 01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:27,439 Speaker 1: of the Marlins control at this point. Like Isaac said, 1519 01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:32,240 Speaker 1: the sixty is more favorable because Major League Baseball doesn't reseed, 1520 01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:36,559 Speaker 1: whereas the NFL have a similar playoff format, but the 1521 01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 1: lowest seed plays the highest seeds, so on and so forth. 1522 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:42,120 Speaker 1: But no matter what, whoever wins the three versus six 1523 01:19:42,160 --> 01:19:45,080 Speaker 1: matchup plays to which we presume will be the Dodgers. 1524 01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:51,400 Speaker 1: So it is probably too tight to tail on if, 1525 01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:54,639 Speaker 1: like the Marlins will have any control over whether they 1526 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:56,320 Speaker 1: get the five or sixty. I think they're still just 1527 01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:57,760 Speaker 1: going to try and make it no matter what. But 1528 01:19:57,800 --> 01:19:59,599 Speaker 1: it is worth noting that because they own so many 1529 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:03,240 Speaker 1: type brings, they can very well mess around and get 1530 01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:06,800 Speaker 1: that five see as a real possibility. Then you go 1531 01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:08,200 Speaker 1: to just see who you match up better with. 1532 01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:11,439 Speaker 11: Obviously there's very low chance that one they can get five, 1533 01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:13,160 Speaker 11: and two they can have anything to say about it. 1534 01:20:13,560 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 11: But you, I would you guys feel more comfortable with 1535 01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:19,240 Speaker 11: the Marlins facing in a brief that's out of three series. 1536 01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:23,439 Speaker 1: The Phillies are the Brewers. I believe you and I 1537 01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:26,400 Speaker 1: agree both agreed that we would rather have the Brewers. 1538 01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 11: I believe, yeah, yeah, Brewers are better pitching, and that's 1539 01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:31,960 Speaker 11: what wins series. 1540 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:34,880 Speaker 1: But oh well, I think the Phillies are a team 1541 01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:37,360 Speaker 1: that's definitely built to compete in October. But the Brewers are 1542 01:20:37,360 --> 01:20:39,320 Speaker 1: hot right now. I don't really want to face either 1543 01:20:39,320 --> 01:20:41,880 Speaker 1: of those teams. I know there's no one I want 1544 01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:44,439 Speaker 1: to face right now. I feel like everyone is getting 1545 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:46,920 Speaker 1: hot at the right time. Maybe the Dodgers. I don't 1546 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:48,679 Speaker 1: think the Dodgers aren't great as of late. I haven't 1547 01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:51,880 Speaker 1: paid much attention since the Marlins stopped playing them. But 1548 01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:54,479 Speaker 1: the Braves are the Braves, and I guess the Dodgers 1549 01:20:54,479 --> 01:20:56,400 Speaker 1: are the Dodgers. The Brewers all of a sudden, I 1550 01:20:56,439 --> 01:20:59,439 Speaker 1: didn't realize they're like, what twenty twenty one games over 1551 01:20:59,479 --> 01:21:02,000 Speaker 1: five hundred now, Like I felt like it wasn't long ago. 1552 01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:04,759 Speaker 1: We're talking about them being stuck in at the division 1553 01:21:04,840 --> 01:21:06,679 Speaker 1: race with the Cubs and the Red and talk about 1554 01:21:06,680 --> 01:21:09,120 Speaker 1: how bad the Central is. But the Brewers are really good. 1555 01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:11,920 Speaker 1: The Phillies, we saw what they did last year, the 1556 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:15,160 Speaker 1: pretty much exact same team. We know what they're capable of. 1557 01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:19,040 Speaker 1: So I mean, one of those four teams, they're very, 1558 01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:21,559 Speaker 1: very good. But the way this playoff format is now, 1559 01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:24,559 Speaker 1: I mean, anyone who makes it has a fighting chance. 1560 01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:26,720 Speaker 1: I think that's what there's one of the pros to 1561 01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:30,280 Speaker 1: this new playoff format that major League Baseball have right. 1562 01:21:31,640 --> 01:21:35,080 Speaker 11: Has his mindset, he knows that number four seed is 1563 01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:35,840 Speaker 11: within reach. 1564 01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:39,519 Speaker 1: That's the best case at art, but obviously that's not goot. 1565 01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:42,280 Speaker 1: That would be crazy at is unforeseen at this point, 1566 01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:44,519 Speaker 1: but that would be absolutely nuts if they go and 1567 01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:46,840 Speaker 1: get the four steed and dead. Hey, you have two 1568 01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:50,160 Speaker 1: three games at home and in the Wildcard Series. And 1569 01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:53,240 Speaker 1: we were talking about this as possibility in like June 1570 01:21:53,640 --> 01:21:56,000 Speaker 1: or early July, and then just went away for about 1571 01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:57,240 Speaker 1: a month and a half. In the fact that we're 1572 01:21:57,280 --> 01:22:00,639 Speaker 1: even mentioning it on what's the date, September seventeenth. Nuts, 1573 01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:02,640 Speaker 1: But I still don't know if that will happen. But 1574 01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:04,559 Speaker 1: that would be something if it did. 1575 01:22:05,439 --> 01:22:05,880 Speaker 9: Just get in. 1576 01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:08,200 Speaker 12: That's why that's what matters. Get to get in and 1577 01:22:08,240 --> 01:22:11,919 Speaker 12: you're fine, Like I think, I think that that's that's 1578 01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 12: not gonna happen. I mean, yeah, they played the. 1579 01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:15,920 Speaker 1: Mets twice, but the Mets always fuck with the Marlins, 1580 01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:17,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like they know it's vice versa. 1581 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:19,280 Speaker 1: The Marlins always right mess up. 1582 01:22:19,439 --> 01:22:21,880 Speaker 12: I mean, yeah, historically, like the Marlins ruined the Mets 1583 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:22,559 Speaker 12: playoff hops. 1584 01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:25,160 Speaker 1: But you know, and in this case, it could be backwards, right. 1585 01:22:25,479 --> 01:22:27,040 Speaker 1: Plus you don't know what's going on with your rocation. 1586 01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:29,000 Speaker 1: Plus you don't know what you're gonna get from Edwick Caprera. 1587 01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:31,280 Speaker 12: Like you know, this is just so so many things 1588 01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:34,080 Speaker 12: that are against that actually happening that I don't think 1589 01:22:34,080 --> 01:22:34,400 Speaker 12: it will. 1590 01:22:34,439 --> 01:22:36,840 Speaker 1: But get in and see what happens. Like, get in, 1591 01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:42,000 Speaker 1: and that's all it matters, right, But I mean, overall, oall, 1592 01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:44,480 Speaker 1: I just want to see the Marls on my television 1593 01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 1: that first week of October. I'll want to go get 1594 01:22:47,040 --> 01:22:49,840 Speaker 1: my classes and see the Marls on the TV screen 1595 01:22:50,080 --> 01:22:52,720 Speaker 1: on SPN. It was a wonderful feeling getting that in 1596 01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:55,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. And this is gonna shop on that. 1597 01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,720 Speaker 2: Ag and you know. So the other side of this 1598 01:22:57,960 --> 01:23:01,360 Speaker 2: is scheduling where if you they play the Brewers, all 1599 01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:03,360 Speaker 2: those games are going to be at like two o'clock 1600 01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:06,000 Speaker 2: Eastern time. They are not getting a night game for 1601 01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:08,800 Speaker 2: a wild card series against the Brewers. Within the Marlins 1602 01:23:08,800 --> 01:23:11,000 Speaker 2: and the Brewers. If you play the Phillies, maybe the 1603 01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:14,280 Speaker 2: Phillies get in primetime at least once during that stretch. 1604 01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:18,639 Speaker 2: So that's another factor to consider, depending on your personal 1605 01:23:18,680 --> 01:23:23,040 Speaker 2: schedule or how much attention you want. The Marlins playoff 1606 01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:25,759 Speaker 2: runts again, it'd be they would get a much bigger 1607 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:28,240 Speaker 2: spotlight if they played the Phillies in the first rounds. 1608 01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:31,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's a sexier series. I would. I 1609 01:23:31,840 --> 01:23:33,840 Speaker 1: think you gotta try and get any time you're can 1610 01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:39,440 Speaker 1: appeal with a division series. I think you have familiarity, 1611 01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:40,639 Speaker 1: they have familiarity with you. 1612 01:23:41,240 --> 01:23:43,840 Speaker 11: I think the Marlins matchup better with Philadelphia, even though 1613 01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:47,440 Speaker 11: their offense is completely better than Milwaukee's. 1614 01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:51,679 Speaker 1: I would prefer to face the Phillies. So what happens 1615 01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:53,800 Speaker 1: this week and they get a true read on how 1616 01:23:53,880 --> 01:23:56,960 Speaker 1: the Marlins mash up with Milwaukee that they're kind of 1617 01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:00,240 Speaker 1: hitting their stride with what just happened again, So I think, yes, 1618 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:01,200 Speaker 1: it would be a good tell. 1619 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:04,720 Speaker 12: All you guys are so worried about the Marlins, Like, 1620 01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:06,639 Speaker 12: do you guys know that that there is a Marlins 1621 01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:09,200 Speaker 12: affiliate winning a championship playoff game right now? 1622 01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:11,599 Speaker 1: Like con we we haven't even talked about that yet. 1623 01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:14,080 Speaker 1: I guess I haven't even talked about that yet. There's 1624 01:24:14,120 --> 01:24:17,280 Speaker 1: another team in South Florida that's on Sunday night, football. 1625 01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:19,559 Speaker 1: It's starting in six minutes. They can wait. 1626 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 13: The Hammerheads are winning in a playoff game, so I 1627 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:29,000 Speaker 13: forgot about the Dolphins. All right, anyone else that has questions, 1628 01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:32,240 Speaker 13: please go ahead. I only dyes is our last one? 1629 01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:32,439 Speaker 1: Right? 1630 01:24:33,920 --> 01:24:41,639 Speaker 2: Yes?
