1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to this edition of Big Fish Small

2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:11,159
Speaker 1: Pod four Thursday, August fourth, two thousand twenty two. And

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: if you are due to the Small Pod here, we'd

4
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:17,240
Speaker 1: like to give you all the information about the Marlins

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 1: for that particular day all season long, in ten minutes

6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: or less and Marlins chance. Today is an off day

7
00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: for your Fish as they did have a really great

8
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: game against the Reds and the final game of that series.

9
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 1: Marlint did end up losing that series to one, but

10
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: did come up with the win in the final game

11
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: against the Reds. And what a game it was, some

12
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:45,920
Speaker 1: masterclass performance from your ace helps her young favorite all

13
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: star Sandy Avgantara, And what a performance did was a

14
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: complete game shutout both yes, he got both nine innings,

15
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 1: six hits, zero runs, zero earned runs, one walk, three strikeouts.

16
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: Just an incredible performance from Sandy. Gets his tenth win

17
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: on the season.

18
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 2: Sandy's oh one Vado round ball first base Leywin's got it.

19
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 2: He'll take it himself. Badums winning it's shut out hurt

20
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 2: Sandy Alkander.

21
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 1: I believe one of the first ten win seasons in

22
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: a long time. From am You're gonna have to go

23
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: back all the way to Dan Strayley or Jose Ierna. Actually,

24
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: Dan Straley and Joysei Irenya both had ten wins in

25
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. Strayley ten and nine, Jose Renya fourteen and seven,

26
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: which was surprising. They're seeing that record. But Sandy brings

27
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: his era all the way from one point ninety nine

28
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: down to one point eight eight. Incredible. His era is

29
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 1: still under too, still in the ones and we're already

30
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: more than halfway on the season already August. Incredible to

31
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: see from Sandy. But who had another great performance in

32
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: this game? Definitely if there was an MVP hitting wise,

33
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: I would definitely have to go with Luke Williams. Yes, surprisingly,

34
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: I know Agi had the home run, Garret Cooper had

35
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: the double that drove in two runs, But man, when

36
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: you look at Luke's complete stats, it's just insane. He

37
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: went three for three, one run, and probably the biggest

38
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: number of them all three stolen bases. Yes, he stole

39
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: three bases. If he went three for three and hitting

40
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 1: and stealing bags, insane total of six or six you

41
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,679
Speaker 1: put them together just a like I said, career performance

42
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: from Luke, who's actually having a pretty decent season as

43
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: a utility bench player. The average goes up to two

44
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: sixty six. Lugging still three fifty four, but overall not

45
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: bad for a guy you know, you put in maybe

46
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: the bottom of the order every now and then it

47
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: comes up with staling three bases and getting you three

48
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: hits three at bat's just really insane.

49
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 2: Runners go both of them thrown out at third is

50
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: off the mark, and another they're stolen base four Williams

51
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 2: and Hamilton moves up to second as well.

52
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: Shout out. Also, you have to give it to Luke

53
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: Garrett Cooper with double brought in not just Luke Willas

54
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: but also Billy Hamilton who drew on walk. Aggie got

55
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 1: everything started with a home run. Really great to see.

56
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: Just overall, really great game from Miami. Going back to

57
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: Standy did it on one hundred and five pitches at

58
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 1: seventy five strikes, so really great to see from Sandy.

59
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: Just overall, what a performer for Miami. This is what

60
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: you want to see. I would like them in no

61
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: more hits, maybe a bit more runs just for that

62
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: support for Sandy. But Sandy got the ten wins, three hits,

63
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: three stolen bases for Luke. Just really incredible there. I

64
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: also wanted to mention this was the first game after

65
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: the trade deadline. Well, you could say yesterday was after

66
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: the trade deadline, but just after, like the whole day,

67
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: and all the foughts are collected. Just really, you know,

68
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 1: we have players finally going to their new teams after

69
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: the trade deadline, finally twenty four hours after And if

70
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: you're wondering what happened, Miami did trade a player to

71
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: be named later, Anthony Bass and Zach Popp to the

72
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: Toronto Blue Jays for top one hundred player, number four

73
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: ranked prospect in Toronto Blue Ja's organization, Jordan Groschans, and

74
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: I believe it was a good trade for Miami, especially

75
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: when we look at both sides. Blue Jays our need

76
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: for just for some guys to help evalalate the clubhouse,

77
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: get things going because they are definitely in the playoff hunt.

78
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: Two guys. Bass is having such a great year, he

79
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: has an option for like three million dollars, which I

80
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 1: believe Blue Jays will take. Rather just have him for

81
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: three million than buy him out for a million, just

82
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: keep them on the roster. Really not big at all.

83
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: Interpres contract and Zach Pop has like a thousand years

84
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: of control at least four. But still he's having a

85
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: really great year for Zach Popp. It just overall just

86
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty good in that trade. You when

87
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: you look at Jordan Groshans this season ten in two

88
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,840
Speaker 1: forty seven six thirty ops, one home run, but he

89
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: had he did have a better year last year in

90
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: double A. When you look at the stats two ninety

91
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 1: one eight seventeen ops and you go at twenty nineteen

92
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: nine o nine ops. I I think things are gonna

93
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 1: get better for Jordan. I think it's a great player,

94
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: really great defensively, has a good arm. I I think

95
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: this is a great pick uh pick up for Miami.

96
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: Miami was interested in him back in eighteen when they

97
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: had the thirteenth overall pick in the first round. He

98
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: took Conor Scott, but Jordan Groschans was to take it

99
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: right beforehand, so they had to go and get Conti Scott.

100
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: We know what happened there. It turned out to be

101
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: Jacob Stallings, but they got their man. Jordan Grossen's just

102
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: had to give up bass pop and a player to

103
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 1: be named later. So overall, not bad for Miammy. If

104
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 1: you're wondering Jordan Groshan's first night as a Jumbo Shrimp,

105
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,160
Speaker 1: first night in the Miami Marlins organization, his first game,

106
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 1: three at bats, one hit, There's still more games to

107
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: be played, just just you know, he got a single.

108
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: Just overall, I think Jordan Grocers, I don't know if

109
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: he will come up. If he does come up, will

110
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: have to be later in this season, like around September

111
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: call ups around there. But I think for sure he'll

112
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: probably make the roster coming into next season and twenty

113
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: twenty three. Definitely, if especially by this time next year,

114
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: he'd definitely be on it to see if he makes

115
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: the opening day roster. But that's a conversation for another day.

116
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 1: I think Jordan Groschen's helped the organization, especially for the future.

117
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: He's very young player, plays shortstop, third base. Who what

118
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: have it's there with other guys that close Salas now

119
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 1: that Charles Blanc also happens to Brian Anderson, but pretty

120
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: successful trade there. They ended up did keeping pabel Lopez,

121
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: but I think with the right move, I think you

122
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: gotta keep Pabolo Lopez. I loft the trades blows your

123
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: shocks off, like Anthony Volpi or anything like that. But overall,

124
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: I think might Ey did good and trade Deadline had

125
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: a really great game last night, Sandy just incredible, complete game.

126
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: Shout out. Nothing is I can't say anymore of that.

127
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: Luke Williams also had a career game, three hits, three

128
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 1: stolen bases, Garrett Cooper double Aggie home run. Great to

129
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: see from Miami. If you're wondering when the Marlins do

130
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: play again, they do play again on Friday. They start

131
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: a three games series versus the Chicago Cubs in Wrigley.

132
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: All games are at two to twenty pm, so it's

133
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,080
