1 00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: You're listening to Bigfish Smallpod here on the Fish Stripes 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:10,040 Speaker 1: podcast Network. I'm eighteen. We'redall here on July ninth, talking 3 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: to you about the Miami Marlins, catching you up on 4 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,639 Speaker 1: the latest, retelling the Major League game, catching up on 5 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: the farm system, and letting you know whatever else might 6 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:26,240 Speaker 1: be of interest. So yesterday, July eighth, started early. The 7 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: Major League game began just afternoon as Sandy al Contra 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: took to the mound against Julio Urias and the Los 9 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: Angeles Dodgers. So the game got underway, all eyes were 10 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: on Sandy. The Dodgers brought the offense to the plate 11 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: that they've been bringing to the plate this entire series. 12 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:48,480 Speaker 1: It's been an intense lot of fowls. As a team, 13 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 1: they do lead the league in walk rate, and that's 14 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: based in part around their ability to see the ball 15 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: with an outside string rate as the best in Major 16 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: League Baseball. In the first of the Dodgers were kept 17 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,839 Speaker 1: off of the scoreboard, but Cody Ballinger was already on 18 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: Sandy's change up below the zone, which he hit for 19 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: a single. Sandy allowed a walk and struck out two 20 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: in the first against the Champs. On the other side 21 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: of the first, Jazz Chisholm pounced on a fastball as 22 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: Julio Urias tried to establish the strike zone, and he 23 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: threw his first strike and Jazz took it to the 24 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: upper deck. Julio stayed away from Marte and collected his 25 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: first strikeout and went on to win against the Marlin's 26 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: lineup playing in without Adam Devall, Jorge Alfaro, and Joe Panick. 27 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: As the start went along, Julio was able to establish 28 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: his curve ball against Garrett Cooper and really just had 29 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: an effective mix from then on out. Even confusingly, the 30 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: next time he faced Justism, he started the at bat 31 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: with three straight curveballs in an eventual strikeout, and a 32 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: quick inning against Sandy Leone, John Birdie Sandy al Contra 33 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: helped Coolio stay on track well. Sandy al Contra was 34 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 1: challenged on the mound. The Dodgers made him work as 35 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: even Rias worked in the pitch at bat against Sandy, 36 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: Basically Sandy wasn't able to put away batters, he was 37 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: able to keep the Dodgers from getting those hard extra 38 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: bass hits in the fourth and error by John Birdie 39 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: at third. His now seventh era at third base on 40 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: the year considerably higher than his one at second base 41 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: in a little bit less innings, but still the discrepancy 42 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: is enough that it might be an actual effect of 43 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: lesser ability at third base compared to second for Bertie. 44 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: Sandy was set up to work more than the minimum, 45 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: as the Dodgers did turn that error into a run. 46 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: The fifth inning came around and four consecutive hits chased Sandy. 47 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: David Hess came in to limit the damage and allowed 48 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: those runs to score as a Chris Taylor double and 49 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 1: then a one hundred and four mile an hour smashed 50 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: by Zach McKinstry, which was somehow ruled an error on Jazz. 51 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: Somehow it was one hundred and four in at his glove. 52 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: It popped him too, the outfield run scored. Not sure 53 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 1: how it's an error, but Zach hit David hard. After 54 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,119 Speaker 1: the inning, the Marlins would turn to Nick Knightert, who 55 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: pitched them out smoothly with four shutout innings, two strikeouts, 56 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: no walk, but the Marlins were able to climb out 57 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: of the five run hole, finishing the series against the 58 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: Dodgers as three to one winners. 59 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: Big Fish small Pod Is brought to you by three 60 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: oh five Candles.

On the Valley Sports Florida broadcast, Kim 64 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 1: Ang answer some questions for the staff and announced that 65 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: the team and Don Mattingly had exercised a mutual option 66 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 1: for twenty twenty two, as the front office wants to 67 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: continue to work with Don and Donnie wants to continue 68 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: work with the front office, providing some stability at the Helm. 69 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 3: Obviously, he won the National League Manager of the Year 70 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 3: last year, so we're real excited about that. And again, 71 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 3: the record isn't necessarily indicative of where we think we 72 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 3: are and where we could be, but Donnie's been a 73 00:04:58,520 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 3: big part of that. 74 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: Otherwise, in terms of games down, the system will run 75 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: it pretty quick. There were a lot of games double headers. 76 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: The Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp played two against the Charlotte Knights. 77 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: Both games were losses for Jacksonville in the seven innings. 78 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: Some highlights quickly la when Diez had his tenth home 79 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 1: run of his season at Triple A. Well in the 80 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 1: second game, Parker Bug got the start and struck out 81 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: seven through three innings and sixty three pitches, including the 82 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: home run Aloud. Devin Morero Homard and Corey Bird reached 83 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: base every time he touched the plate, but the Jacksonville 84 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: Jumbo Shrimp didn't come through with the runners on in 85 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: this short seven second leg of this double header. The 86 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 1: Pinsacle of Blue Waho's also played two against the Mississippi Braves. 87 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: The batters did continually get it going out the plate. 88 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: Peyton Verdick reached four times and JJ Bledet had four 89 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: hits on the deck. So did Nick Fortes and everyone 90 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,119 Speaker 1: else found a way to contribute, but with the only 91 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: real push from their pitching depth coming from a shortened 92 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: outing by Jake Eater, shortened to limit his innings for 93 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: the year and possibly set him up for an inning 94 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: in the futures game. Jake Eater did strike out three 95 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: of four batters he faced in the first inning, but 96 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: in the second inning he ran into trouble, allowing a 97 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: home run, some singles, getting another strikeout, but ultimately being 98 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: pulled before closing out the second. In Beloit, the Snappers 99 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: faced a resurgent twenty five year old Derek Casey, whose 100 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: put past struggles in twenty eighteen and nineteen behind him 101 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 1: with a solid year in twenty twenty one against the Snappers, 102 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: he allowed only two hits and struck out ten in 103 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: five and two thirds innings. Well, Jake Slaughter of the 104 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: South Bend Cubs offered the difference making offense, scoring after 105 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: a walk then later launching a three run home run 106 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: as the Snappers fell four to zero and only had 107 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: two hits on the game in Jupiter, game did not 108 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: get underway as whether called called off. Another attempt at 109 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: baseball for the Jupiter Hammer hits. It's been a rough 110 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: week or so for them. Digging down deeper to the 111 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: Complex League. Another game was called short at seven innings, 112 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: this one due to lightning, and seriously, five of the 113 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: seven games played an organization were only seven innings in 114 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: a bit of an oddity. Just looking closer at that game, 115 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: Asyrus Johnson and Edgar Sanchez seem to have found more 116 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: solid footing in this league after having struggles to start 117 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: the year at that low a Jupiter. Looking ahead this 118 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: weekend is the domestic amateur Draft, so expect another wave 119 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 1: of talent to enter into the developmental leagues just coming up. 120 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: It's unclear exactly when that talent will filter in with 121 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: the draft pushed deeper into the season in July than 122 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: it has been in any year prior that also had 123 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: a developmental league going. It's been a weird sort of 124 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: year and a half two years to follow the sport, 125 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: as even this year's draft class will have talent that 126 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: just didn't get selected last year. In the short five 127 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: rounds on Sunday, the Marlins will have this sixteenth pick, 128 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: the thirty first pick fifty second, and then settle into 129 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: basically picking seventeenth every round for twenty rounds this year. 130 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 1: On the podcast network, we have a pre you that 131 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: can offer more insight on this year's draft. For myself, mostly, 132 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: I've been focused on the day today, Like today six'.
