Speaker 2: Marlins fans, This episode is going to be about Ryan

10
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 2: Weathers and his fantastic month of May and just how

11
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: he's just been a completely new pitcher this month compared

12
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 2: to maybe his last couple of months and maybe his

13
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,920
Speaker 2: entire tenure or his entirety of his career as a

14
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 2: major leaguer. It's definitely his best month of his career

15
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 2: and going into this episode, we'll talk about what really

16
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 2: has been different for him and just going and looking

17
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 2: at game by game for this month of May, which

18
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 2: ones really stand out in terms for Ryan Weathers and

19
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 2: to give a complete overlook for his month of May,

20
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 2: five games, five games started has EA of one point

21
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: nine to one, just an incredible run of performances buying

22
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: Whine Weathers, including or i should say, highlighted by the

23
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: eight inning performance against the Detroit Tigers in the middle

24
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 2: of May. That was really the cultivation of just how

25
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 2: great Ryan Weathers was. He wouldn't look at a game

26
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 2: it's a very complete, solid game for Ryan Weathers. It

27
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: was that one for sure. Just looking at all of

28
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: his start in May, just really incredible. And all these

29
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: starts he has gone up into his pitch limits, So

30
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: that really shows you how much Skip and now trusts

31
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 2: Ryan Weathers to go up there in his pitches. He's

32
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 2: he threw ninety nine pitches on May third, then most

33
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 2: recently against the Arizona Diamondback scoring six inning ninety one pitches.

34
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: So really great for Ryan Weathers there for the team

35
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 2: and the coachings have to be able to trust them

36
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 2: to go up there in His pitch count again has

37
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 2: not succeeded exceeding one hundred pitches, but again the way

38
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: he's been performing and the way that he's just been

39
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 2: giving them solid innings is just a testament to how

40
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 2: great Ryan Weathers has been this season. Really a testament

41
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: as well to have the pitching development program for the

42
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: Marlins has been because he first was traded from the

43
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 2: Padres to the Marlins last year, it seemed like the

44
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 2: Marlins got a pitcher where it was we might not

45
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: see him in the Majors for a good amount of time,

46
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: someone that really needed or might have been long term

47
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 2: almost project for the Marlins. But again just in an

48
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,399
Speaker 2: off season, a great spring training regiment with the Marlins

49
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 2: with mel Stodomer Junior really transformed Ryan weather to the

50
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 2: pitcher we're seeing now until he's one of the competent,

51
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,079
Speaker 2: very good pitchers for the Marlins again in the top

52
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: three in terms of Lozardo, Braxon, Garrett and now Ryan Weathers.

53
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 2: Where if you look at last season the way he

54
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: performed in the Marlon Zuno form, he was definitely the

55
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 2: odd man out in what was going to be a

56
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 2: rotation for the Marlins this season. But for now the

57
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 2: way he's performed, including this month of May, which again

58
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: highlighted against the Detroit Tigers, and just very great performances.

59
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 2: Each of his games so far in the month of

60
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 2: May have been at least six innings, so the Marlins

61
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 2: are getting quality starts from Ryan Weathers. Just the way

62
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 2: how great he has been looking at each one right here,

63
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: it's six innings, six innings, you have another eight innings,

64
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 2: seven and six inning games. Has just been really great

65
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: in terms of only giving up five hits the way

66
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 2: he has been in terms of his different types of pitches,

67
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: whether it's his fastball, some of his off speed pitches,

68
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: whether he's including his changeup, his sinker, just really what

69
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: he wants to go for. In terms of his pitchers,

70
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,159
Speaker 2: he's also been including a sweeper and very rarely a

71
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 2: slider for Ryan Weathers, but he has really great control

72
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: of his pitches. Ground Ball percentage again very in terms

73
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 2: of being almost a groundball starting pitcher for the Marlins.

74
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: Fastball velo relatively well for the Marlin ninety five point seven,

75
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 2: so really great when you want to see there from

76
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 2: Ryan Weather's ground ball percentage fifty one point four percent,

77
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 2: I believe that's ranks in the top eighty five percentile

78
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 2: for pitchers so far. But if you want to go

79
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: ahead look at his savant page and you see a

80
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 2: very quality of red in terms of his run value

81
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: in terms of his pitches and brilliant including his fastball,

82
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,159
Speaker 2: then again you might see some blue in terms of

83
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 2: really his chase rate in terms of getting guys to

84
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 2: strike out, his k rate as well, and his block

85
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 2: weight really is something that might have to be looked

86
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 2: at just a bit just you know, haven't really walked

87
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 2: that many guys out all of this season. But again,

88
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 2: if you're walking maybe three guys, that's something that the

89
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 2: Margins can really would not behind in terms of having.

90
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 2: But again with Ryan weather it's just overall great performances

91
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 2: that we've really seen. You forget, you want to highlight.

92
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: One game against the Detroit Tigers was just a masterclass

93
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: of pitching for him, and he only did that with

94
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 2: four strikeouts, So again he was able to get guys

95
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 2: out where the ground ball, flyouts whatnot, and eight solid

96
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 2: innings against preserving the bullpen. And he's been doing that

97
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 2: the entirety of the month of May. Again, you look

98
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 2: at his one point ninety one era, his FIP on

99
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: the other end month of May is I believe a

100
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 2: three point one three I believe, So again he is

101
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 2: getting lucky in terms of his pitches if you want

102
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: relatively look at his era pitching more to an era

103
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 2: of a three point one. But overall, Ryan Weathers has

104
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 2: just been so incredible for the Marlins and the guy

105
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: that the Marlins should look at, I don't want to

106
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 2: say long term, but a guy that they need to

107
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 2: have in this rotation year in year out. I don't

108
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: believe this is the guy to go ahead put him

109
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: in the bullpen. He has earned the spot for the Marlins.

110
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,679
Speaker 2: He has to be in Peter Beggins's plans long terms

111
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 2: of pitchers. Again, a guy who is very young, who

112
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: has this in his blood. Is his father pitched with

113
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 2: the Marlins way back in the day. He's not Ur

114
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: Betric eligible till twenty twenty six, is not a free

115
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 2: agent till twenty twenty nine, only twenty four years old.

116
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 2: So again, one hundred percent have to be hopefully at

117
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 2: least in that in the plans for Peter Bendix long

118
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 2: term Ryan, whethers he could tell he really likes what

119
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 2: he's seeing from him. And again, this month of May

120
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 2: has just been a capsulation of what the Mormons have

121
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: been almost preaching in terms of what they want from

122
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: their young starters, and including you know, having Yearie down

123
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 2: and having Santia got down. Having a guy who give

124
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 2: me six innings routinely is something the Mormons will take

125
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: every day nine times out of ten, ten times out

126
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: of ten, and something they've begin they've been looking for

127
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 2: since Sandy has been going down has been down so again.

128
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 2: With Ryan Weathers an incredible month of May, now is

129
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 2: time to see if he will continue that in the

130
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 2: month of June. But if he continues what he is doing,

131
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 2: don't be shocked if Ryan Weathers is the All Star

132
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 2: for the Marlins come the middle of the season. So

133
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 2: this has been Daniel Rodriguez for a Big Fish, Small Pod.

134
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:01,559
Speaker 2: As always, we are presented by MPT College Salt gold

135
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 2: Fisch
