1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:18,120
Speaker 1: H Hello, and welcome to a brand new episode of Phishology,

2
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: where we go in an analytical, in depth perspective on

3
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 1: your Miami Marlins. I am always your host hosts Daniel,

4
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: and I'm joined always by my colleagues Eli Sausman, Lewis,

5
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 1: Adio Weiss, and we are glad to have here probably

6
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: our biggest guest, not just in Physology but entire fresh

7
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: Drive senior writer of MLB Pipeline, mister Jim Kallis, it's

8
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: dont to even have you here.

9
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 2: Well, thanks for inviting me. You guys got to get

10
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 2: better guests.

11
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 3: If I'm the if I'm the peak, you guys got

12
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 3: to work on your guests, I guess.

13
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 2: But now it's uh.

14
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 3: I always like talking prospects, and yeah, I mean, I've

15
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 3: obviously been doing this for a long time, and I

16
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 3: always feel like I don't feel like you guys are

17
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 3: gonna grill me.

18
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: But I always do believe that if you're going to

19
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 2: rank players, you.

20
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 3: Should be willing to explain why you ranked player ahead

21
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 3: of player B, or why this guy's better than that guy.

22
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 2: So I'm always happy to talk.

23
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 3: About this stuff. So it's glad to be here with you.

24
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: Guys.

25
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's great to have you off your busy schedule

26
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: with pipelines being released as seemingly every day, but again

27
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: we're welcome to have you here to talk about the Marlins.

28
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: And then probably the first question that most of us

29
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: have here is just maybe an in depth view on

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: the Marlins and maybe what you see the strength of

31
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: this farm system.

32
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 3: As for the Fish, yeah, you know, I mean we

33
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 3: had there.

34
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 2: I don't have the rankings in front of me.

35
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 3: We haven't done our new rankings yet, but a couple

36
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 3: of years ago we had them as one of the

37
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 3: top farm systems in the game, and they've graduated so

38
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 3: many of.

39
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 2: Those guys to the big league.

40
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 3: So like the top thirty, I think looks radically different

41
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 3: than it did a couple of years ago. There's probably

42
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 3: been more turnover with their list than most, just because

43
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 3: of all the guys who no longer count prospects. You know,

44
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 3: I guess the strength you have to say is pitching.

45
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 3: You know, the best prospect I think I don't think

46
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 3: anybody disagrees that Uri Prez is their best prospect and

47
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 3: one of the best prospects in baseball. And you know

48
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: you've got you know, obviously a lot of their better

49
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 3: pitching prospects are hurt. But you know, Max Meyers should

50
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: be able to come back from Tommy John surgery. Jake

51
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 3: Eater should be back this year from Tommy John surgery.

52
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 3: You know, Dax Fulton had Tommy John surgery in high school,

53
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 3: and I think he's a guy who could like take

54
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 3: a step forward this year. He just seems like he

55
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 3: keeps getting better and better, more more pro experience. They

56
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 3: got guys like Jacob Miller and Carson Milbran out of

57
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 3: last year's draft, and then I honestly don't know what

58
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 3: to tell you about six per Centchez, like what to

59
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 3: expect from him. It seems like it's been forever since

60
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: he's really done much on the mound, but he was

61
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 3: so good when we saw him in twenty twenty, so

62
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 3: he's kind of the biggest wild card. But I'd say

63
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 3: I'd say They're pitching is probably the strength of the system,

64
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,079
Speaker 3: right And Yeah, you put.

65
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 4: In a very generous way about being a lot of

66
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 4: turnover on this list in recent years. I think it

67
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 4: is fair to say that over the last compared to

68
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 4: where it was over the last few years, that this

69
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 4: farm system is probably weaker overall in terms of overall

70
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 4: talent than it was just since they've completed their latest

71
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 4: string of rebuilding trades. Is that fair to say that

72
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 4: this is one of the low points that they've been

73
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 4: at recently.

74
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:24,119
Speaker 2: Yeah.

75
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 3: I mean again, we haven't we haven't ranked them, so

76
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 3: I can't tell you, Hey, the Marlins rank eighteenth or

77
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 3: twenty third. You know, we're going to do our Farm

78
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 3: System rankings, I think after the World Baseball Classic. But

79
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 3: I'm just looking back at our top twenty, our top

80
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 3: thirty from twenty twenty one. You know, when they're coming

81
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 3: off the playoff appearance in the short year and sixtcess

82
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 3: san Chance was number one, and he's obviously been heard.

83
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 3: JJ Bledet disappointed, is gone. Max Meyers still eligible and

84
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 3: still ranks high, but it has heard. You have Jess

85
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 3: Chisholm graduated at Wickberg graduated. When Diaz graduated, a CAV

86
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 3: lost track of which organization he's with because he's been

87
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 3: DFA so many times this offseason. Trevor Rodgers graduated, He's

88
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 3: who's chance has graduated? Braxton Garrett graduated, Jose Devers graduated.

89
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: You have to go all the way down to Dax Fulton.

90
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 3: To find another guy who has even graduated off the

91
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 3: list from two years ago, and then you could go

92
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 3: on Nick Knighter, Peyton Verdick Monte Harrison, Camera Meiser's been traded,

93
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 3: Connor Scott's been traded, Kyle Nicholas has been traded, Jose

94
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 3: Salas has been traded. Jararon Canassi unngraduated. I'm not gonna

95
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 3: go through the whole thing, but like I think two

96
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 3: thirds of the guys almost from our twenty twenty one

97
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 3: list aren't even eligible for the Marvel's List anymore because

98
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 3: either they're big leaguers or they're no longer in the organization.

99
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 3: But in terms of what you know, the system as

100
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 3: a whole, yeah, I think it is weaker than it

101
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 3: has been in a little while because it was kind

102
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 3: of on the rise when they fully comme into rebuilding.

103
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 3: I didn't love a lot of their trades, to be

104
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 3: honest with you, when they were they're training you know,

105
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 3: everybody they had, But they did bring in some interesting players.

106
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 3: Their international program was doing well, they had some draft picks,

107
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 3: so there's a lot of hope for I still I

108
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,240
Speaker 3: still understand having a JJ Bilday, Like I thought for

109
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 3: sure that guy would hit, and then I now I'm

110
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: not really sure he ever will hit. But yeah, it's

111
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 3: as I wrote kind of my introduction to our far

112
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 3: rankings two years ago. I mean, I know it was

113
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 3: a short season. They're coming off with surprise playoff birth,

114
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 3: they have this deep farm system. There's a lot of optimism,

115
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 3: and two years later they finished fourth two years in

116
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 3: a row, lost a bunch of games, and the farm

117
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 3: system is a lot thinner, and they've got a lot

118
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 3: of holes to fill. So yeah, they have some work

119
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: to do.

120
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 5: Speaking of the international market, Jim, you know, I read

121
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 5: Ken Rosendal's piece this morning for The Athletic talking about

122
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 5: how it's kind of been a while since they've done

123
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 5: well as far as position players go on the market.

124
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 5: Obviously we've seen kind of like shrides with the likes

125
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 5: of Soriano and the miners now more of a converted reliever,

126
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 5: but position player wise, it's really been since about Marcelo

127
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 5: Zuna that they've had success with international position players. Do

128
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 5: you think the hiring of OsO Campbell is, you know,

129
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 5: somebody who obviously had success in Houston, signing the likes

130
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 5: of Christian Javier Luis Garcia and fran Bravaldez. Do you

131
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 5: think that may be a turning point for their fortunes

132
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 5: as far as like having a guy who knows the

133
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 5: international scouting side kind of knows, you know, the way

134
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 5: that system kind of works, and you don't think maybe

135
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 5: that'll help them, maybe hit on somebody on the position

136
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 5: player side, you know, something that's been very much a

137
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 5: weakness for them even at the big league level. Going

138
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 5: back now, for I would say post Stanton and Real Muto, I.

139
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 3: Know they have a lot of expectations for you to Cape.

140
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 3: You know, there are some people who think he might

141
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 3: be the best position player in the system. You know,

142
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 3: they had a really interesting DSL contingent, and and look,

143
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 3: you could always sell hope on the on the super

144
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 3: low level prospects, but you know, last year without Feeler's

145
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 3: Hesy Girardo and Anthony Baguero and in fielder Marco Vargas,

146
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 3: it was a pretty interesting DSL contingent, so that those

147
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 3: fortunes might be changing anyway. But yeah, I think getting

148
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 3: as a campo when you look at what he's done

149
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 3: in Houston.

150
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny. When I think it's Houston, I think

151
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 2: of all the pitchers they signed.

152
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 3: It seems like every year they bring up another guy

153
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 3: the big leagues who they signed when he was like

154
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 3: nineteen years old and they signed it for twenty five

155
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 3: thousand dollars and then the guy finished his third and

156
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 3: the Rookie of Year voting, and they just have an

157
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 3: endless supply those guys. But yeah, I mean, his track

158
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 3: record obviously has been very, very good, and you would

159
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 3: think that would be you know, there's a reason to

160
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 3: think that would change. With the Marlins, Like I said,

161
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 3: it will be kind of interesting to see how this

162
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 3: super young DSL contingent that they had that was you know,

163
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 3: mostly guys signed in twenty twenty two, performs as they

164
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 3: come up the ladder.

165
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, and with that, we've seen how the division is

166
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: rivaling in terms of the prospect and see the Braves

167
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: guys kind of like the Marlins using them and graduating.

168
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: And then you have the Nationals who traded Soto and

169
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: got just a mirrored of prospects. How do you think

170
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 1: this long term affects Tomorrowin's competing with the division prospect.

171
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 3: Wise, well, prospect wise, you know, maybe they're not as

172
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:17,120
Speaker 3: bad shape as as they might appear. I mean, you know,

173
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: the Nationals and Mets, you know, have like I think,

174
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 3: kind of the strongest you know, contingent of current top

175
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 3: one hundred prospects, but neither one of those teams is

176
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 3: especially deep. The Braves are really thinned out, no, I mean,

177
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: not only in Landa's complaining because they won the World

178
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,599
Speaker 3: Series two years ago. In Philadelphia, it's kind of the

179
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 3: same thing. I mean, they've got Andrew Painter and Nick

180
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,199
Speaker 3: Able and a couple other guys, but they're really I

181
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 3: don't think any of the farm systems in the NL

182
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 3: East are really particularly deep right now. So you know,

183
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 3: some good drafts, some good international crops, you know, I

184
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 3: don't know if they'll continue to make further trades, you know,

185
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 3: could help. You know, you could see a scenario where,

186
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 3: maybe a year or two from now, the Marlins have

187
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 3: the best farm system in the division. I mean, I

188
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 3: think the Nationals would be the favorite seyout right now.

189
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 3: You know, the Nationals have the number two pick in

190
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 3: Issuear's draft, so they'll they'll get another guy right off

191
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 3: the top of the draft too.

192
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 2: But even though the.

193
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 3: Marlin darn as strong as they have been, the NL East, again,

194
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 3: we haven't line up a team I said, the n

195
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 3: least might have about the thinnest group of farm systems

196
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 3: in baseball, so they're not at a at a huge

197
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 3: disadvantage as they might be. You know, if you were

198
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 3: in a division, say with you know the Dodgers, or

199
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 3: you know the Orioles or or team you know, teams

200
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,199
Speaker 3: that had really good farm systems.

201
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,599
Speaker 4: Well, we're with Jim Kallus of MLB Pipeline here, and

202
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 4: I think it's time to scrutinize the rankings themselves.

203
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 2: Okay, as you alluded to.

204
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 4: Already, it's essentially a consensus that Yurie is the number

205
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 4: one guy here. I was fascinating about your process in

206
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 4: terms of coming up with Jacob Berry at number two, because,

207
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 4: like looking around the industry, there's probably four different directions

208
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 4: that you could go potentially for a number two prospect,

209
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 4: whether it's Jacob Barry or Max Meyer, or Dax Fulton

210
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 4: or Jake Eaeder. And from reading the rankings, it seems

211
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 4: like he came down to Barry and Meyer because both

212
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 4: of them with fifty five overall grades on them. I'm

213
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 4: just fascinated in the process between trying to compare Meyer,

214
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 4: someone who's made his major league debut and is missing

215
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 4: full year. With Tommy John versus a newly drafted player

216
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 4: who has only played at the low A level so far,

217
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 4: who has a kind of unusual skill set, who's a

218
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 4: switch hitter. They couldn't be much different in terms of

219
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 4: overall players. So I'm just fascinated in the process of

220
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 4: how you split hairs between them in this case.

221
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, and I think splitting hairs is the best

222
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 3: way to put it. I mean, when you lay up

223
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 3: these lists and look, I do obsess like, over hey,

224
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 3: should Sean Reynolds or Josh Simpson be twenty four and

225
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,679
Speaker 3: twenty five or reverse? Like I do actually put a

226
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 3: lot of fun to it. But at the same time,

227
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 3: and I'm not saying you guys like this, but we

228
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 3: get a lot of fans who are just like outrage

229
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,839
Speaker 3: at one guy's ahead of another. It's like they're really

230
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 3: kind of on tiers, and we kind of use the

231
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 3: overall grades to show tiers, and you know, I think,

232
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 3: you know, within a tier you could go in different orders. Now,

233
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 3: you know, I'd have a hard time putting Jake Eater

234
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 3: at number two. I mean, Jake Eater was really really

235
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 3: good in twenty twenty one, but he was really inconsistent

236
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,839
Speaker 3: in Vanderbilt. He's coming back from Tommy John surgery. We

237
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 3: haven't seen him in the game, so that one would

238
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 3: be a tough sell. I think you could argue any

239
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 3: of the other guys, like I do have Dax Fulton

240
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 3: as an overall fifty on our on our grading system,

241
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 3: we can't make we can't get more precise than fifty

242
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 3: and fifty fives. But like Dax Folt would be like

243
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 3: a fifty two and a half. Like I could see

244
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,199
Speaker 3: Dax Fulton making the jump to the top one hundred

245
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 3: this year and being a fifty five. But yeah, I

246
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 3: mean it's funny, like I think we're probably higher, I know,

247
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 3: in our top one hundred. Like I don't know if

248
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 3: Jacob Berry made anybody else's top one hundred, he made our.

249
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 3: It's like, and I I am probably the highman on

250
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 3: Jacob Berry in the you know, I guess you know,

251
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 3: prospect ranking industrial complex. I just think this is a

252
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,760
Speaker 3: guy who hits for average, shoots, for power draws, walks.

253
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 3: I know the data on his exit velocities was not thrilling,

254
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 3: and other outlets don't have him ranked. His high I

255
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 3: just think this guy's gonna hit, and you know, maybe

256
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 3: he wants up be an average power instead of plus

257
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 3: power in the end, if you know he doesn't, you know,

258
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 3: start hitting the ball harder. I think he's really gonna hit.

259
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 3: I think he's can get on base. You know, I

260
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 3: don't think the defense is really gonna be a big

261
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 3: driver with Jacob Berry. And to me, if Max Meyer

262
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 3: were healthy, I take Max Meyer for Jacob Berry. I

263
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 3: do think, you know, you feel pretty good about guys

264
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,599
Speaker 3: coming back from Tommy John surgery.

265
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: But it's not a given.

266
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 6: Try to get on three to two and Max Meyer

267
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 6: has his first major league strutown.

268
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, get that ball too.

269
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: Toss that one out of the game.

270
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 4: There's the slider, just perfect location.

271
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 3: And you know, by time we see Max Meyer pitching again,

272
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,319
Speaker 3: he's gonna be twenty five years old without a lot

273
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 3: of experience, you know, at the big league level.

274
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: So I mean that was I don't know that.

275
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 3: We have him pretty close on the top one hundred

276
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 3: verty sixty one myor sixty seven, so we are splitting hairs.

277
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 3: But I would take the healthy guy. I really think

278
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 3: he's gonna hit over. I really like Max Meyer, but

279
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 3: he's injured, so that one's easy to me. And like

280
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 3: I could see, I could see a scenario where, you know,

281
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 3: Dax Fulton, like his velocity was up toward the end

282
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 3: of last year, and if he builds on that, and

283
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,959
Speaker 3: let's say it becomes a plus fastball and he's got

284
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 3: the really good curveball and he added a slider at

285
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 3: the end of last year, and maybe the control gets

286
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 3: a little bit better, I could see. You know, we

287
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,839
Speaker 3: could be talking about Dax Fulton being the number one

288
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 3: prospect in the system, assuming Yuri Perez graduates, because he

289
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 3: gets to Miami at some point in twenty twenty three.

290
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 5: You talk briefly about his defense, Jim, can you espouse

291
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 5: a little bit more on that, because when I look

292
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 5: at him, you know, we saw him in person immediately

293
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 5: after he signed, and the physicality kind of gave me

294
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 5: very Nick Castiano's vibes as far as the kind of

295
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 5: player that he is. And I you know, when I

296
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 5: watched your preview you did on the Marlin's Farm system

297
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 5: where you refer to Barry as the noted I think

298
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 5: you've noted as one of the better college hitters as

299
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,080
Speaker 5: far as complete profiles go. In the draft, and I

300
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 5: believe his on base percentage was slightly over three forty

301
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 5: when he got into affilated ball. But that being said, defensively,

302
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 5: you know, given Miami kind of already has right now

303
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 5: like a third base conundrum with Sagura gonna be there,

304
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 5: expected to be there for at least the next season.

305
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 5: And you have the likes of Grossians, and you know,

306
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 5: another prospect on the Marlin stop thirty Xavier Edwards, likely

307
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 5: to see time there once they get extended big league time.

308
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 5: When do you think the organization would kind of wreck

309
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 5: Nies the full inability of his defense and maybe try

310
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 5: the experiment of him, say maybe playing little corner outfield

311
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 5: or dhing or playing some first base.

312
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I think there's two things there.

313
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 3: One, I don't feel like any of those guys you

314
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 3: mentioned a big league are really impediments. Yeah, Sigura, I

315
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 3: think he's more of a stop gap than a long

316
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 3: term solution. I'm not sure third base he really fits

317
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 3: the profile what you want offensively, Your Grossians, you know,

318
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 3: have all their prospects when you factor in defense, maybe

319
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 3: has the best chance to stick at third, But he's

320
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 3: got hit for some power at some point too. You

321
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 3: can have your third basement hitting ten or twelve homers

322
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 3: a year, and Xavier Edwards he does not profile at

323
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 3: third base. They could play in a third base. He's

324
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 3: got below average arm, he's got no power. That would

325
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 3: be not good. Now that said, I don't think Jacob

326
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 3: Berry is a great third basement by any means. I mean,

327
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 3: we have him ranked as a forty. He's you know,

328
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 3: Nick Aslano's camp Parrison isn't it is a pretty good one.

329
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: I mean he's kind of, you know, stocky and thick.

330
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 3: His arms probably average really at best. I will say

331
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 3: I'm not saying Jacob Barry is gonna be big league

332
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 3: third basement by any means. I will say I do

333
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 3: think it makes sense to run him out there for

334
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 3: a while and see what he can do there. I

335
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 3: do think you can, through sheer hard work, become an

336
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 3: adequate third basement. A lot of guys can't, like I

337
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 3: remember that's going to date me. But when I started,

338
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 3: Robin Vatua was your first round pick and you know,

339
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 3: still might be the best college pure college hitter in

340
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 3: all the years I've covered college baseball, and he was

341
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 3: terrible third base and nobody thought he like questions say

342
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 3: no it, but very people thought he played third base,

343
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 3: had any chimps to really played third base in big leagues.

344
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 3: He wasn't athletic. Well, honestly, a lot of the same

345
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 3: stuff you hear about Jacob Barry and Robin Vatura worked and

346
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 3: worked and worked and made himself he eventually wanted to

347
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 3: go glove at third base. Yeah, I'm not saying Jacob

348
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 3: Barry is going to go glove at third base. I'm

349
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 3: not saying he'snna be the third basement. I do like

350
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 3: the fact that anytime anybody asked Jacob Barry about it, like, look,

351
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 3: I mean, Jacob bar got drafted where he did six

352
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 3: overall because the bat's so good. The same time, anytime

353
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 3: he gets asked about his defense, Jacob Berry is like,

354
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 3: I'm gonna play third base, Like I'm gonna show everybody

355
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 3: they're wrong. I'm gonna play third base. So he's gonna

356
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 3: work out it. So all that said, I don't think

357
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 3: that the Marlins have another obvious third basement of the

358
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 3: long term future in the system, and Barry's barely playing

359
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 3: in pro ball, so I would let him play third

360
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 3: base this year. See how it looks it takes any progress,

361
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 3: Like if I had to guess, it probably won't work

362
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 3: out to where he's gonna be the third baseman in

363
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 3: Miami down the road. But I think the bat's good

364
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 3: enough that could profile it. First.

365
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 2: I think you know, he doesn't run real great.

366
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, he could play. You probably want him and left

367
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 3: because of the range his arms. Okay, but yeah, my

368
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 3: guess is he'll play a lot of third base, and

369
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 3: if it gets to the point where they think it's

370
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 3: not gonna work, then they'll move him. But I would

371
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 3: I'd be surprised. I bet he spends most of this

372
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 3: year at third base, so they could figure out exactly

373
00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,120
Speaker 3: what his chances are there, because again, it's not like

374
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 3: you have, you know, Hall of Fame. You know, it's

375
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 3: not like Nolan or and Noto's the third base in

376
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,719
Speaker 3: the big leagues and he's not going anywhere like if

377
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 3: Jacob Erry, you know, they need a third base and

378
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 3: then Jacob Barry might be that guy. He might not,

379
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,639
Speaker 3: but let's let's see what he can do. If that

380
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 3: makes sense. I'm not even trying to sound defensive. I

381
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 3: just I just think it's one of those things where

382
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,639
Speaker 3: you always try a guy. I guess when he begins

383
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 3: his pro career at the position that he or I

384
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 3: guess the most difficult position he has any chance of playing.

385
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 3: And right now, for Jacob Barry, that's third base. A

386
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 3: year from now might be left field or first base.

387
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to go ahead and talk about someone

388
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,199
Speaker 1: else the infield on the Marlins, and who was I

389
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 1: believe one of they're highly drafted players and at least

390
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: was and Khalil Watson and him going for maybe on

391
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: the top of the prospect list maybe once when he

392
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 1: was drafted to now falling to thirteenth to just how

393
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: have you seen the decline of Watson early in his

394
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: professional career and do you see him rising to what

395
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: his potentill could be as a player.

396
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 2: I don't.

397
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 3: I just chuckle because like if I had the answer

398
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 3: to that, I think I'd be employed by the Marlins.

399
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 2: You know, look, I.

400
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 3: Don't know what to make him, to be honest with

401
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,399
Speaker 3: The physical ability is still the physical ability.

402
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,240
Speaker 2: That made him a first round pick.

403
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 3: And I don't second guess the decision to take in

404
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 3: there at sixteen. I think it's easier to second guess

405
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 3: it now. There were signability questions there were some makeup concerns,

406
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,159
Speaker 3: But I mean this is a guy who's you know,

407
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 3: in the run, you go number one over all the

408
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 3: pirates on a potential you know, discount deal. It was

409
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 3: a legitimate, you know, top five discussion as a prospect.

410
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 3: And I mean if you look at him from a

411
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 3: tool standpoint, uh, you know, he's still got the quick swing.

412
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 3: He's still got you know, kind of sneaky strength, solid

413
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 3: row power, well above average speed, strong arm, good actions.

414
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,840
Speaker 3: The shorts stop. But like two questions, and I don't

415
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 3: know the answer to these, will guess get more of

416
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 3: a more evidence one way or another this year is

417
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 3: can he control his swing decisions? And can he control

418
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:15,920
Speaker 3: his emotions? I guess is the best way to put it.

419
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 3: I mean he swings at everything. He struck out thirty

420
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 3: five percent of time in single a last year. I

421
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 3: mean that obviously has got to change or he's not

422
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:30,760
Speaker 3: gonna be able to hit. And he just plays kind

423
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 3: of out of control his emotions. I mean, he got

424
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: demoted for a month for making a threatening gesture toward

425
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 3: an umpire. He you know, I don't think anybody thinks

426
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 3: he's necessarily a bad kid. He just cannot control his emotions,

427
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 3: whether it's directed at himself, umpires, opponents, teammates.

428
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 6: And.

429
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 2: You can't play like that.

430
00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 3: Like it's hard enough to play like that for a

431
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 3: week straight, let alone one hundred and sixty two games.

432
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 3: So you know, I mean, shoot, I mean, we could talk.

433
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 3: I mean there's a guy, I mean from town standpoint.

434
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 3: If he gets everything, like, if he makes the adjustments

435
00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 3: he us to make, he could be number one on

436
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 3: this list year from now. If he does what he

437
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 3: did last year. I don't think we wouldn't rank him

438
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 3: at all, but maybe he's down at like number.

439
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 2: Thirty next year.

440
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,680
Speaker 3: He's about as volatile a prospect as I think there

441
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 3: is anywhere in baseball. Unfortunately for the Marlins, like ceilings

442
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 3: still ceiling. You know, maybe you tone down your expectations

443
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 3: for the hitting ability a little bit because he struck

444
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 3: out so much last year. Although you know, I'm not

445
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 3: saying you're gonna turn him into a batting champ, but

446
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 3: he I mean, let's say you can't just flip a switch.

447
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 3: At the same time, his swing decisions were so bad

448
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 3: so many times last year that they can get better.

449
00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 3: But yeah, he's he's hard to figure out. I mean,

450
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 3: I mean literally, if I don't know if people a seeing,

451
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 3: I'm literally shorgking my shoulders. And I don't think ybody

452
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 3: knows the answer to that question. And then like I

453
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 3: mean for ranking him, like like it was just like, okay,

454
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,080
Speaker 3: where do I rank this guy? Like, I mean, he's

455
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 3: got high, like there's no question in my mind he's

456
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 3: got a higher ceiling than Xavier Edwards. I mean outside

457
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 3: putting the bat on the ball, which yes, that's a

458
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 3: very important skill. He just kills Zever Edwards from Toolston. Well,

459
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 3: he's faster in Zebra Edwards now too. He's got a

460
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 3: lot more power, he's got a lot better arm. He

461
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 3: can actually play on the left side innfield. But I

462
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 3: put him behind his Zavior Edwards. Yea sixty Sanchez, like

463
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 3: I said, hasn't pitched in forever, and I had him

464
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 3: behind sixty Sanchez, like you know, Jordan Grosian's hit what

465
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 3: was it, three home runs last year and I have

466
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 3: behind you know, and Jordan Grosians is the third baseman

467
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 3: and I have him behind Jordan Groshens. So it's just

468
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,439
Speaker 3: it's he he was about as hard as guy as

469
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 3: there is to because I just don't know what you're

470
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 3: supposed to do with it.

471
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, you touched on it perfectly right there, Jim. About

472
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,920
Speaker 4: the hardest guys to rank on this list, khalil uh

473
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 4: six to oh, I imagine because of what he was

474
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 4: and now what he is right now. Is there anybody

475
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 4: else in that same vein that you had a really

476
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 4: difficult time placing that you wouldn't be surprised by mid

477
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 4: season if they're much higher and much lower than they

478
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 4: are at the moment.

479
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 3: Not.

480
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 2: I mean, those two are by far the hardest.

481
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,199
Speaker 3: I mean six to pitch grades are pretty similar to

482
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 3: Uri Perez is, you know, and Ury Perez can make

483
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 3: a case for, you know, being the argument with Andrew

484
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 3: Painter and Grayce and Rodriguez is being the best pitching

485
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 3: prospect in baseball. No, I mean, I think those two,

486
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 3: those two were just the hardest for the Marlins. They're

487
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 3: the hardest of just about anybody. I mean, I know,

488
00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 3: probably the guy who maybe I would disagree with the

489
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 3: organization the most on is Cody Moore set who I

490
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 3: feel like the organization thinks is going to break through

491
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,760
Speaker 3: and they would rank him higher. And I mean I

492
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 3: put him behind three guys who were in the DSL

493
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 3: last year. You know, I can see I could see

494
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 3: I know the Marlins like him. I just for a

495
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,199
Speaker 3: guy who's supposed people hit, he just really hasn't hit

496
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 3: a whole lot in the last couple of years. So

497
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 3: I'm kind of reserving judgment. And Cody Moore set a

498
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 3: little bit.

499
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 2: He I mean, he wasn't hard like I kind of

500
00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 2: put him. I I kind of like, you can you.

501
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 3: Can get caught up in like, okay, she could you

502
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 3: know Cody Moore set be twenty verus eighteen versus twenty three.

503
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 3: But most of the guys, it's like, Okay, he kind

504
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,600
Speaker 3: of goes in this in this range, and it's just

505
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 3: you know, you know what your personal preference is, not

506
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 3: like Khlil Watson and sixty Sanchez were just like the

507
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 3: difference between their ceiling and the floor is so immense

508
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 3: it could be. You know, there's any you know, wide

509
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 3: variety outcomes. I mean, you know, it comes down to

510
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 3: the end to the list. You know, there's always like Okay,

511
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 3: who do I want to get on? Who do I

512
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,119
Speaker 3: want to get off? I mean the last couple of

513
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 3: guys who didn't make the list were pictures like Zach

514
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 3: mccambley and Brian Hoeing and empty Johnson and maybe having

515
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 3: our Sonoa would be the next position player, although you

516
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 3: know if I had one on there. But again, you know,

517
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 3: you could always talk those guys around, like I always

518
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 3: like to say, you know, the difference between like the

519
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 3: twenty sixth prospect and thirty fifth prospect is minimal, But

520
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 3: five of those guys make the list, in five don't,

521
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 3: and you just don't see the five who don't, So

522
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 3: I'd say I didn't really have any Like again, I

523
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 3: can sit there and get caught in the weeds, like, Okay,

524
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 3: my relievers, how do I stack up Nick en Right

525
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,399
Speaker 3: versus Josh Simpson versus Sean Reynolds versus George Soriano, And

526
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 3: you can bat those around your head, you know, forever

527
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 3: if you want the shift them around. But I'd say

528
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 3: for the most part, you know, like Joe mac versus

529
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 3: gud Cape, you know, who do I want ahead of who?

530
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 3: You know, you can debate those kinds of things a

531
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 3: little bit, but but I wouldn't say I wouldn'sider anybody

532
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 3: else for us. It's like, oh my gosh, it's all

533
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 3: over the place.

534
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 2: On the skip.

535
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 5: You talk a little bit about you briefly mentioned Mac there.

536
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,200
Speaker 5: What is it about Mac that kind of merits him

537
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 5: being so high beyond the fact that obviously, you know,

538
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,239
Speaker 5: you know, from a traditional metrics standpoint, as far as

539
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 5: batting average goes, he's you know, he's on the lower end,

540
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 5: but it's the plate discipline and you know what, other

541
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 5: what else about him do you kind of see that?

542
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 5: You know, possibly it kind of just like makes him

543
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 5: a guy that we really should be paying attention to

544
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,800
Speaker 5: him in the coming years.

545
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 6: Swinging the line, driving to the left center field back,

546
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 6: goes Black.

547
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 2: He's at the.

548
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 6: Track, it's gone over the fence, goes Joe Mack after

549
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 6: going oh for three makes they hadn't scored a run

550
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:51,879
Speaker 6: since the first inning. Mac gets him on the board

551
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 6: in the eighth inning.

552
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I don't think he's an elite catching prospect,

553
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 3: but I do think he has a chance to be

554
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 3: an every day capturing in the big leagues. I kind

555
00:26:59,920 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 3: of throw out what he did this year in pro

556
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 3: ball because he had a hamstring injury that was pretty severe,

557
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,719
Speaker 3: and you know, I think he was trying to make

558
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 3: up for some lost time and he was experience the

559
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 3: same thing like in the Fall League. He didn't play

560
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 3: great in the Fall League. But he's one of the

561
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,520
Speaker 3: youngest guys there. He's one of the most inexperienced players there.

562
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 2: You know.

563
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 3: I think the biggest thing he needs to do is

564
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 3: probably you know, cut down on the strikeouts. But he's

565
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 3: got bad speed. He's got potential for twenty home run power.

566
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 3: He's got pitch recognition skills. I think it's just kind

567
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,440
Speaker 3: of learning pro pitching. Like I think he can recognize

568
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 3: pitches and he works deep counts, but sometimes he kind

569
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 3: of gets trapped in deep counts and then winds up

570
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 3: leaving the strikeouts. He's got a strong arm, he's athletic.

571
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 3: He's got to improve his receiving. I mean, you know,

572
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 3: I don't really see him as any different. I guess,

573
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 3: you know, he only had you know, he hit two

574
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 3: thirty one this year, but again he was he was

575
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,720
Speaker 3: hurt for most of the year. The way he performed

576
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 3: last year, it was such a small sample size. It

577
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 3: didn't really change the way I think of him. I

578
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 3: look at him the same way he did coming out

579
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 3: of the draft.

580
00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 2: I mean, here's a guy.

581
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 3: Who's a chance to be you know, maybe he could

582
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 3: hit you know, two sixty with twenty homers and be

583
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 3: a solid defender behind the play.

584
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 2: That's a pretty good player.

585
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 4: You know.

586
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 3: He's look, he's a few years away from getting to

587
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 3: that point, but you know, I still think that ceiling

588
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:15,200
Speaker 3: is still there.

589
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, And what are the I would say the follower

590
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,160
Speaker 1: followers and rises that I saw really that stood out

591
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:28,199
Speaker 1: to me was Jose Girardo coming unranked to seventeenth on

592
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: your list on pipeline. Just it's the eighty great arm

593
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 1: you mentioned one hundred and two mile power throw that

594
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: he has over there in the Minican Republic as an amateur.

595
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: Just what did you see from him to make that

596
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 1: such of a significant jump to go unranked till already

597
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 1: almost reaching the top fifteen.

598
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think there's a couple of things

599
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 2: to play there.

600
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 1: One.

601
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 2: I mean, like I said, I don't think the system's

602
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 2: super deep.

603
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 3: I don't usually put you know, guys in the DSL

604
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 3: who weren't you know, seven figure signings that high on

605
00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 3: the list that early in their careers. But it just

606
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,880
Speaker 3: got to the point where it's like, Okay, I've kind

607
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 3: of run out of guys who look like they could

608
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 3: be starting pitchers or the there aren't really that many

609
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 3: other guys who look like they could be everyday players

610
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 3: or obviously every day players. So I went with that

611
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 3: DSL contingent of Gerardo and Piguero and Vargas all back

612
00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 3: to back to back. You know again, I mean the

613
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,719
Speaker 3: difference between his ceiling and you know where he is

614
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 3: now is still pretty huge because you just start playing.

615
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 3: But I mean, guy hitting my home runs. In his

616
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 3: first full month in the DSL, finished third in the

617
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 3: league with eleven homers. He's got big power, you know.

618
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 3: You noted you know that I noted that he had

619
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 3: one hundred and two mile hour throw from the outfield

620
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 3: when he was an amateur.

621
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 2: He's got huge.

622
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 3: Arm, solid runner. You know, he's really aggressive hitter. He

623
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 3: struck out thirty percent of time in the DSL. He

624
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 3: looks to pull and kind of launch everything he sees.

625
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 3: So that approach is probably not gonna work all the

626
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 3: way up to the big leagues. He's gonna have to

627
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 3: make some adjustments, but there are some tools there. So

628
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 3: I kind of went at that point the list is like,

629
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 3: you know what, I'm gonna go for ceiling, even if

630
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 3: there's more risk involved, And that's why I went with

631
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 3: Gerardo at seventeen. Ye know, I all be honest. I

632
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 3: didn't really know about him at this time last year.

633
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 3: They just signed him. It was one hundred and eighty

634
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 3: thousand dollars signing. So he wasn't a big time guy.

635
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 3: If you'd asked me in you know, end of February

636
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, you know who's Josey Girardo, I would

637
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 3: have shrugged and said, I don't know who that is.

638
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 3: So that's why he didn't rank on the list last year.

639
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 3: He really hadn't done anything. He wasn't a big time guy,

640
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 3: but he impressed with his power down on the DSL

641
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 3: and Jim.

642
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 4: We were absolutely delighted to see Paul McIntosh squeeze unto

643
00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 4: the top thirty. Fishtreps has been extremely high on him

644
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 4: since the moment he stepped into Pro Bowl an undrafted

645
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 4: free agent. But as soon as like you started playing

646
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 4: the games, his bat and ball quality just jumped out

647
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 4: at me. And then all of the last season he

648
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 4: was one of their better hitters at any position period

649
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 4: and he actually did it well, doing a whole lot

650
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 4: of catcher. But I imagine the fact that he is

651
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,479
Speaker 4: as close to the bottom as he is, reflects that

652
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 4: you don't necessarily see him sticking at catcher moving forward.

653
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, Paul mctash is an organization favorite,

654
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 3: and like I had, like I said that kind of

655
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 3: that the twenty six to thirty five range, I was

656
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 3: shuffling guys around and.

657
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 2: I had him off.

658
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,400
Speaker 3: And then there's enough support like you should like he's

659
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 3: he's an organization favorite for sure. He does the things

660
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 3: that really interesting, and then he has some glaring holes

661
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 3: in his game, like he hits the ball as hard

662
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 3: and he works counts as well as most players in

663
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 3: the system. I mean his power over hit, he does

664
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 3: drow walks, he doesn't strike out a ton.

665
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 2: That's all good.

666
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 3: Now that said, he's already twenty five. You know, he

667
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 3: wasn't really even young for double A last year and

668
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 3: he hit two fifty eight, so it's not like he's

669
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 3: a high average hitter. And just I think the biggest

670
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 3: question is where do you put him. I mean, he's

671
00:31:53,520 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 3: surprisingly quick, with like a fifty percent fifty. We gave

672
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 3: him a fifty grade on his speed. He's surprisingly quick

673
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 3: down the line, but it's it's it's a blow average arm,

674
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 3: it's a blow average receiver. He doesn't block the balls. Well,

675
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 3: I don't think there's any chance he's really like he's

676
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 3: more an emergency third catcher. Like you can't even really

677
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 3: call him a backup catcher. He'd be like if he

678
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 3: made your team as a first base I mean he

679
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 3: runs okay, I guess you could run him around a

680
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,719
Speaker 3: left field a little bit, like if he made your

681
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 3: team as like a first base left field d H

682
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 3: type who you could catch, like in an emergency situation.

683
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 3: That's probably what he is as a catcher. If he

684
00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 3: was like a fringy guy and you're like, oh, he

685
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 3: could be an offensive mind to backup, he could rank higher.

686
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 3: But like it's everybody loves it. I mean, I haven't

687
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 3: talked to anybody the Marvels. He just doesn't love him

688
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 3: as you know, just as a personality. And he'll probably

689
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 3: get to the big leagues, but he's really really gonna

690
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 3: have to hit to carve out a role in the

691
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 3: big leagues because I just don't think he has a position.

692
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 2: Really.

693
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, And going from Paul mcintoss, a player that I

694
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 1: personally really like, and I think his tools are just

695
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 1: out of the waters. Not seeing Nunaz might that's not

696
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: half the power, but it's just his run, his fielding,

697
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: his arm. We still have to make a defensive play.

698
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: I believe it in spring training, just a couple of

699
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 1: days ago. Just what makes him just where you have

700
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 1: him ranked twenty first? Is it just mainly his offensive

701
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,640
Speaker 1: skills that push him down that low on the list.

702
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he might be about the most extreme

703
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 3: player on any top thirty because you know, on the

704
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 3: twenty eighties scouting scale or fifties average, we gave him

705
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 3: seventy run, sixty five arm, seventy field. I mean, he

706
00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 3: could probably contend for gold gloves shortstops, maybe even the

707
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 3: season goal goal shorten for goal gloves as shortstop this season.

708
00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 3: He can really run, you can't but like so so

709
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 3: the defense of the running, that's great. You love all

710
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 3: that part of it. He was thurning the miners last

711
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 3: year with seventy steals. He just has not shown any

712
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 3: impact at the play. He's not very physical. I mean

713
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,280
Speaker 3: he definitely needs to get stronger. But like he's listed

714
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 3: five nine one fifty eight, he doesn't turn on pitches,

715
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,439
Speaker 3: he doesn't drive him with any authority, Like it's kind

716
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 3: of classic knock the bat out of his hands. I mean,

717
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 3: he draws walks in the miners by working decounts. I

718
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 3: don't think that's going to play in the big league

719
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 3: because I just don't think if I would respect the

720
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 3: lack of power. I mean, he's he's an interesting guy,

721
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 3: but he's a career two thirty eight hitter with a

722
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 3: career twenty seven slugging percentage in the miners and that's

723
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 3: not anywhere close to being able to hit in the

724
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 3: big leagues. I went forty hit, I want twenty power.

725
00:34:55,200 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 3: I mean, there's no power there. So you know, he's

726
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 3: gonna have to Like there's a lot of guys in

727
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 3: the system who are interesting that they have flaws are

728
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 3: gonna need to address, and he's gonna have to get stronger. Hey, look,

729
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 3: he's never gonna have power, but he's got to be

730
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 3: able to hit the ball, you know, harder, you know,

731
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 3: to least make teams respect him a little bit, because

732
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,680
Speaker 3: I mean just I mean again, I don't know he's

733
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,160
Speaker 3: I can't imagine there are too many guys on any

734
00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 3: of our top thirty lists who have played even one

735
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 3: hundred games in the minor leagues who have a career

736
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 3: two eighty seven slugging percentage, and that's testament to how

737
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 3: good his defense and his base running are. But like

738
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 3: that's I mean, that's a pretty fatal flaw. So if

739
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 3: he you know, I don't think he's ever gonna be

740
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 3: He'll probably always be twenty power.

741
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 2: But if you could get him.

742
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,720
Speaker 3: To be, you know, I don't know, like an average

743
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 3: hitter and maybe slightly above average on base ability and

744
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 3: then not power, but like great defense, then you might

745
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 3: have a big leaker.

746
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,720
Speaker 2: I mean, he probably can. He probably will.

747
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,240
Speaker 3: Get a cup of coffee at least on the basis

748
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,840
Speaker 3: of his glove alone, but he's gonna have to provide

749
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,359
Speaker 3: a lot more offense to have any kind of pig

750
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 3: League role for the long term.

751
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 5: Continuing on that trend of infielders, we've kind of talked

752
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 5: briefly about the way the Marlins infield kind of aligns

753
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 5: for twenty twenty three, and not even just the infield,

754
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 5: the defense as a hole, where it seems like there's

755
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,760
Speaker 5: a lot of guys playing at a position, either learning

756
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 5: new positions or they're kind of experimenting. In a Philadelphia

757
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,720
Speaker 5: twenty twenty two Phillies lightweight, albeit with a lot less.

758
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 2: Offensive, espically a Colonial World Series team.

759
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 5: I am not pousing that giving describing that onto them,

760
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 5: because yeah, I mean, we could touch on that another day.

761
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 5: But what I'm trying to get at is, you know,

762
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,799
Speaker 5: obviously you have Joey Wendell, who buy many metrics out

763
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 5: of a average defensive run saved, was elite as both

764
00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 5: a second and a third baseman last year, believe he

765
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 5: was in the top ten and DRS for third baseman,

766
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 5: and you're kind of playing him at shortstop. I believe

767
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,560
Speaker 5: he's slated to be the primary shortstop, a position he

768
00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 5: has played before, obviously going back to his days in Tampa,

769
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 5: where positional versatility is something that's very much preached. But again,

770
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 5: a guy who doesn't play that position on a regular basis,

771
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 5: and that makes me want to touch on a guy

772
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 5: who you have just inside the top ten I believe

773
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,320
Speaker 5: at nine in Jacob Amaya, who they acquired from the Dodgers.

774
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,439
Speaker 5: Ironically enough, they lose their short stop and Gavin Luck,

775
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 5: so you like to think that they maybe want to

776
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 5: have that trade back as you know some more depth,

777
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,319
Speaker 5: do you see his path to the big leagues as

778
00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,280
Speaker 5: a lot easier than most of these guys? On the list. Obviously,

779
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 5: we know Yuri is kind of almost a given, albeit

780
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:31,799
Speaker 5: his innings are going to have to be managed because

781
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,720
Speaker 5: he's never even crossed the eighty inning threshold in actual

782
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 5: games over the course of a season. But Amaya in

783
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 5: terms of him, do you think he's somebody that could

784
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 5: have an immediate impact this year, especially given the year

785
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,480
Speaker 5: he had last year split between a couple of levels

786
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 5: in the Dodgers system.

787
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do.

788
00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I think from a defensive standpoint,

789
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 3: he's like, he's clearly me the best short stop they

790
00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 3: have in the upper levels of the organization right now. Yeah.

791
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 3: He It's interesting he came out from the pandemic and

792
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,399
Speaker 3: he was stronger, and he got a little home run

793
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 3: crazy in the in the Dodger system, but you know,

794
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 3: got away me Like in the past, he'd always been

795
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 3: kind of a contact guy. He drew a lot of walks,

796
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 3: and now he chases a little bit more. But yeah,

797
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,839
Speaker 3: I think, you know, if he came up, he's gonna

798
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 3: have to like watch his approach a little bit. He

799
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 3: might be like a fringy hitter with fifteen home run power,

800
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 3: but he could play solid plus defense and for a

801
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 3: team that the strength of Bigley club is pitching, like

802
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 3: like you were just alluding to, it's kind of interesting,

803
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 3: like the strength of Big Leay Club's pitching, and you're

804
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 3: kind of I don't know. The defensive alignment seems to

805
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:50,040
Speaker 3: be a lot of wishful thinking that you're hoping guys

806
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,239
Speaker 3: can handle positions or be better than they have been

807
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 3: in the past.

808
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 2: So we'll see.

809
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,919
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think they're they're very in field. Would

810
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 3: be more stable if you had him, if you went

811
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 3: ahead and put Amaya at shortstop and you put Wendell

812
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 3: back at second base and Luis Arias you can really hit,

813
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 3: but isn't a really good defender. You know, maybe he

814
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 3: and Garrett Cooper like first base DH, you know, kind

815
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 3: of time share. Your defense would be a lot better

816
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 3: than the Ariahs Wendell deep double play combination. Seems a

817
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 3: little bit optimistic to me, I guess the best way

818
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 3: to put it.

819
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, And going from that, I want to go ahead

820
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: and talk about one of the prospects that's been in

821
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: the system for a while, almost scoring up the rankings

822
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:47,440
Speaker 1: almost every year. That's Victor Mason Jr. We know the

823
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 1: brothers him, Victor, Victor Victor. Victor has not really been

824
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,640
Speaker 1: the player that the Marlins have hoped that. Yeah, the

825
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:55,560
Speaker 1: Marlins have hope for it all. But the younger brother,

826
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: Victor Mason Junior fourteenth in your ranking, how does he

827
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 1: profile for the Marlins and maybe even comparing him to

828
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,800
Speaker 1: his brother and just how he's just kind of almost

829
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,399
Speaker 1: gone up the rankings almost every year.

830
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean his brother unfortunately, just put, his brother

831
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,320
Speaker 3: can't hit. His brother has got no power, no impact

832
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:20,600
Speaker 3: of played very good defender. His brother is kinda like

833
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 3: the nota seen nunya as ab outfielders, if that makes sense.

834
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,319
Speaker 3: But he's older and see you have less I guess

835
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 3: optimism than he's gonna snap out of it and develop much.

836
00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 2: He just doesn't hit the ball hard and there's no

837
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 2: impact there.

838
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 3: His brother, Victor Junior, has more offensive upside. He's got

839
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 3: one of the better swings, he's got some of the

840
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 3: best basketball skills in the organization. You know, more of

841
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,839
Speaker 3: a corner guy. Well, I should take it back. He's

842
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,760
Speaker 3: got good instincts. He's not as good defensively as his brother,

843
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,240
Speaker 3: who's one of the better center fielders in the miners.

844
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 3: But Victor Junior is kind of an average runner with

845
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 3: good instincts. He may he may have a chance to

846
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 3: stay in the center high baseball. IQ might be more

847
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 3: of a right fielder in the long run. You know,

848
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 3: It's just he's always been really young for his leagues.

849
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 3: He was twenty years old this year in HIA, and

850
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 3: so he hasn't really put up huge numbers. I kind

851
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,319
Speaker 3: of like to see him get a chance to catch

852
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 3: his brad. I don't know what they're gonna do with

853
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 3: him this year. If it were me, my ito be

854
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 3: he's still just twenty one years old, But send him

855
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 3: back to HIA and let him tear it up. Then

856
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 3: to double a once he gets going. But I do

857
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 3: think he is one of the better peer hitters in

858
00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 3: the system, even if the numbers aren't loud, And I

859
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,240
Speaker 3: think a lot of it's just been because they believe

860
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,799
Speaker 3: enough in the bat that they've they've challenged him with

861
00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 3: some aggressive assignments.

862
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think now the perfect time to go almost

863
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,440
Speaker 1: to the main event of what maybe most of everyone

864
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: here was or people listening wanted us to talk about,

865
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 1: and that is mister Sixto Sanchez. You mentioned volatile, You

866
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 1: mentioned someone who could be number one A few years ago.

867
00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:00,879
Speaker 1: The injuries just give us a little been on six

868
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,320
Speaker 1: though in him falling to eleventh for you, yeah.

869
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 3: I mean and again, I mean you could argue he

870
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 3: hasn't pitched since twenty twenty and he's come after shoots.

871
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 3: Not Tommy John where you feel better about his shoulder surgeries.

872
00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,040
Speaker 3: He said, you know, should surgery in twenty twenty one.

873
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 3: He had their should surgery in twenty twenty two. I mean, look,

874
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 3: he could be anything. I mean when we last saw

875
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,800
Speaker 3: him and he was healthy, he had like a ninety

876
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 3: five ninety seven mile an hour power sinker. He had

877
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:30,680
Speaker 3: a four seamer that got the triple digits. He you know,

878
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 3: you know with that, you know some people tell you

879
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:33,880
Speaker 3: this change up, they just kind of tumbled at the

880
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 3: play was his best pitch.

881
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 2: He showed some.

882
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,839
Speaker 3: Progress with the curveball. He just you know, had a

883
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 3: cutter that had its moments. He threw a ton of strikes. Now,

884
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 3: I mean, the question besides his health always has been

885
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:48,839
Speaker 3: he doesn't you know with all those pitches, you'd think

886
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 3: he missed more bats and it was more like he'd

887
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 3: get ground ball contact than then strike out, you know,

888
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 3: twelve per nine, Like do you think.

889
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 2: He might do that stuff. But that's quippling.

890
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, he got plenty of outs, he

891
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 3: threw plenty of strikes, but yeah, I don't know. I

892
00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,439
Speaker 3: don't to tell you he lost Well, what's the story.

893
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:10,919
Speaker 3: He's lost forty five pounds? Like, yeah, Like I would

894
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 3: suggest that if he was forty five pounds overweight. It's

895
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 3: not like he looks He looks like he's in better

896
00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:17,879
Speaker 3: shape for sure.

897
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:18,240
Speaker 2: He doesn't.

898
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 3: Like I wouldn't call him skinny right now, right, I mean, like,

899
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 3: so if he was forty five pounds overweight, part of

900
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 3: me would be, like, makes me wonder about his dedication

901
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 3: a little bit. That would concern me trying to come

902
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 3: back from his shoulder. And I don't know. I mean

903
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 3: when we last saw him, he had great stuff. He

904
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 3: was one of the best pitching prospects in baseball. And

905
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,000
Speaker 3: you know the last two years he's had two shoulder

906
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 3: surgeries and hasn't pitched in a game. So to me,

907
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,359
Speaker 3: he's more of a lottery ticket really right now than

908
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 3: something you can bank on. And again, I mean I

909
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 3: would bet if you ask anybody with the Marlins, nobody knows. No,

910
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 3: I mean, you hope you're hoping it back to what

911
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 3: he was, but like, who knows. I mean, I don't

912
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,439
Speaker 3: I don't know what the track record is. I don't

913
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 3: think there's a lot of pitchers in this two full seasons.

914
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 3: Let alone had two shoulder surgeries out during the time

915
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 3: but came back and we're stars better stuff.

916
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 4: I looked into it a little bit, and just what

917
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 4: sticks out to me when you look at players that

918
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 4: had that kind of absence is that even when they

919
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 4: come back, even if they're effective, it's almost always as relievers.

920
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 4: And that's kind of why I think generally, or at

921
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 4: least science, maybe maybe that's in that category that's kind

922
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 4: of repeated injuries. I think that's why there's a little

923
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 4: surprise that he's even still this high for yous, just

924
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,440
Speaker 4: because usually on the other side of these injuries, even

925
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 4: if they come back, it's just it's a different role.

926
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 2: Because yeah, I get that, you know.

927
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:50,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, honestly, if he's healthy this year

928
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,560
Speaker 3: and he's in the big leagues, they're gonna have to

929
00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 3: manage his innings. So maybe they should use him at

930
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 3: the bullpen this year for sure, and then and see

931
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 3: what they have going forward. I mean, he's one like

932
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 3: I said, like, I don't no, if you guys do list,

933
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 3: like if you want to rank six No Sanchez thirtieth

934
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:09,040
Speaker 3: on your list, on somebody's list, I don't Now you

935
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:10,839
Speaker 3: could argue with that. You can say, look like there's

936
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:14,719
Speaker 3: just so much risk with him. That said, I do

937
00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:18,720
Speaker 3: think in this system, like we're talking about the Marlin

938
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,399
Speaker 3: system isn't as deep as it once was. It's not

939
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 3: like there's a collection of slam dunk everyday players and

940
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:31,319
Speaker 3: starting pitchers behind you. Like to me, like, you know,

941
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 3: I ranked him eleventh, like if I was saying, like, okay,

942
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,760
Speaker 3: how low is the lowest.

943
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:36,320
Speaker 2: You could rank him?

944
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,319
Speaker 3: Like I put a forty five on him. I mean,

945
00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 3: I guess you could tuck him behind the DSL contingent

946
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,239
Speaker 3: and maybe you could put him at nineteen, although those

947
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 3: guys are so far away. I mean there's a ton

948
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 3: of risk there too. So you know, Carson Milbrand's interesting,

949
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 3: but six dos the healthy six dough has a lot

950
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 3: better stuff than Carson Milbrand, And I like Carson Olbrandt,

951
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,480
Speaker 3: So I don't know. I mean again, that's one where

952
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,040
Speaker 3: I think if if if if if if there was,

953
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 3: if if there was a teacher and he was giving

954
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,759
Speaker 3: everybody a test. It's like, where would you rank six

955
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 3: nos Sanchez on your Marlin's top thirty. I don't know

956
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 3: that there's really a wrong answer.

957
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,919
Speaker 5: It almost reminds me of, uh, kind of like what's

958
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 5: going on with Noah's song in the Phillyes right now.

959
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 5: Albeit that's like a different kind of scenario in and

960
00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 5: of itself.

961
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:22,879
Speaker 3: You know a guy, you know what it's like, it's

962
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,360
Speaker 3: like Forced Whitley with the asterisk, I do the asterisk

963
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 3: Like Forced Whitley once ranked is like as good as

964
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 3: any pitching prospected baseball. I've lost track when the last

965
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,400
Speaker 3: time he pitched her how he's been hurt? He pitched

966
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:36,799
Speaker 3: last time.

967
00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:38,720
Speaker 2: He came back last.

968
00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 3: Year from Tommy John pitched a little bit and.

969
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:41,239
Speaker 2: Didn't look great.

970
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:45,960
Speaker 3: But same type of thing, like you just you You

971
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,120
Speaker 3: basically can put those guys wherever you want on lists

972
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:53,160
Speaker 3: and justify it because there you know it's you. We're

973
00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 3: talking about Khlil Watson, who's not hurt, but's the same

974
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 3: type of thing. Like there's huge ceiling there, like like

975
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 3: if it all comes together for six tos inches, it'd

976
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 3: be an all star. But he's also hasn't pitched to

977
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 3: years and you know, is it out of around possibility

978
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 3: it never pitches in the big leagues again if he

979
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 3: has an our setback? Sure, So like like who knows.

980
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 3: Like I said, I'm not trying to dodge the quote,

981
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 3: but it's like some of these guys like six Dollars

982
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 3: and klul Watson, these super volati guys like just the

983
00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:27,439
Speaker 3: wide range of outcomes from all star to never gets

984
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 3: to big leagues or in six us case, never gets

985
00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 3: to big leagues again. I mean that's a huge, huge

986
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:34,080
Speaker 3: gamut there.

987
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, and we even early reports on a spring training

988
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:40,400
Speaker 5: despite the fact that six to lost you know, I

989
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 5: believe those forty six pounds. It was almost like when

990
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:44,800
Speaker 5: CC Sabathi had dropped a lot of weight in the

991
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,000
Speaker 5: earlier part of the twenty tens for the Yankees and

992
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 5: his fastball went from about ninety five to about you know,

993
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:51,719
Speaker 5: ninety one ninety two and he kind of had to

994
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:55,840
Speaker 5: reinvent himself cutter, sink or slider kind of guy. That

995
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,160
Speaker 5: being said, though, I think if you, I mean, if

996
00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 5: you were going to assess this top thirty list and

997
00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,040
Speaker 5: you know, excluding your prayers, because we kind of just

998
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:07,160
Speaker 5: it's maybe just universally agreed upon here that he will

999
00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 5: contribute at some point, whether that's out of the bullpen

1000
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:11,839
Speaker 5: or making a spot start later in the season. If

1001
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 5: there was one person that you really had a bank

1002
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:17,399
Speaker 5: on having an extended impact at the big league level

1003
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:20,000
Speaker 5: in twenty twenty three of the of the thirty or

1004
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,600
Speaker 5: so players you have on that pipeline list, who would

1005
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,040
Speaker 5: you feel most confident in putting your stock in going.

1006
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 2: Into the season.

1007
00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean there's a number of relievers, you know,

1008
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:32,920
Speaker 3: like Nick and right, Josh Simpson and George Soriano who

1009
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 3: I think will see in the big leagues at some

1010
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:37,880
Speaker 3: point this year. I think goes back to guy we

1011
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 3: were just talking about a couple months ago. I think

1012
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:43,880
Speaker 3: it's Jacob Amaya. I just think, you know, he's, like

1013
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:45,319
Speaker 3: I said, it gets too girsts to the play. But

1014
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 3: in my mind he's clearly their best defensive option is shortstop,

1015
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 3: but clearly, and I think they're gonna need that, and

1016
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 3: you put him a short stop, but Wendell back at

1017
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,520
Speaker 3: second he's a huge upgrade over Luis or Ayas. That

1018
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:00,960
Speaker 3: makes sure you're you know, up the middle infield defense

1019
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 3: significantly better. So I think it's Jacob Emaya honestly, but

1020
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 3: that would be my pick for I mean, I agree

1021
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 3: like Uri Perez's kind of guide all by himself, but

1022
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 3: if we take him out of the conversation, I think

1023
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:19,239
Speaker 3: Jacob Emaia is the most important rookie in the mar

1024
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 3: on the Marlins this year.

1025
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:27,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and speaking of rookies or at least future rookies,

1026
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 1: I don't want to get too far ahead. But now

1027
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 1: that we have you here, just the Marlins have the

1028
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: tenth pick in the draft coming up, and I know

1029
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:37,080
Speaker 1: it's a very far time away. What can Marlons fans

1030
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,560
Speaker 1: maybe expect in terms of the players available at number ten?

1031
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:43,879
Speaker 1: And maybe guys at the Marlins could could use. There's

1032
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,320
Speaker 1: Enriki Banfield, you have your Hondi Morales right across the street,

1033
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 1: and Coral Gables guy like Jacob Wilson. Just what what

1034
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:53,520
Speaker 1: kind of guys do the Marlins need to target in

1035
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 1: this draft with the tenth overall pick.

1036
00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 3: Well, I think the strength of this draft, especially in

1037
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 3: the top ten or fifteen picks, is college position players.

1038
00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 2: And if you look.

1039
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 3: At all like most of the moves to Marlins and

1040
00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 3: made this offseason, they've tried to acquire. Are even going

1041
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 3: back to like the middle last season and even the

1042
00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:16,200
Speaker 3: draft too. They've tried to acquire hitters who could put

1043
00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 3: the bat on the ball. So I could see I

1044
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 3: could see them. You know, Bradfield's interesting because there's some

1045
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:26,520
Speaker 3: like fastest playing in the draft and he can hit.

1046
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,439
Speaker 3: There's some question about his power, but I could see

1047
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,839
Speaker 3: like guys like I'm not saying that all these guys

1048
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,839
Speaker 3: are on their short list, but I could see Rinky

1049
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:37,720
Speaker 3: Bradfield from Vanderbilt. I see Grand Kenney shortstop Jacob Wilson,

1050
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:41,080
Speaker 3: who is the best contact hitter in college baseball. He

1051
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:43,040
Speaker 3: struck out I think it was seven times in two

1052
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 3: hundred and seventy five at bats last year. And he's

1053
00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 3: a son of Jack Wilson. He's a really good player.

1054
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:51,000
Speaker 2: Bring Taylor from.

1055
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 3: TCU's the third baseman, then that would fill your third

1056
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 3: base hole. Who can play third base and he can

1057
00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:58,920
Speaker 3: really hit. There's a high school kid from Florida, Aden Miller,

1058
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 3: who's also one of the better hitters on the high

1059
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 3: school side. You know, Morales is more power over hit guys,

1060
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 3: so that one would surprise me a little bit if

1061
00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 3: they took you Handy Morales, even though he's right there

1062
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 3: in Miami. But like, if I had to bet, I mean,

1063
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 3: that'd be kind of a hard bet to make right

1064
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 3: here in February, this far ahead of the draft, But

1065
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:20,960
Speaker 3: I would bet for one of those college bats, Like

1066
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 3: I could see Jacob Wilson, Bradent Taylor being good fit.

1067
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 3: I could see Aden Miller maybe being being good fits

1068
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:29,200
Speaker 3: for them.

1069
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I remember Jacob Wilson. You were able to

1070
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: see him early on this season with Great Canyon, seeing

1071
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: him Homer Bush and just really really quickly, what is

1072
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,319
Speaker 1: it about maybe Jacob Wilson that maybe Marlons fans really

1073
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:46,520
Speaker 1: should look at it, maybe him and his defensive of

1074
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:48,840
Speaker 1: him being maybe the best you mentioned contact hitter in

1075
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 1: all of baseball.

1076
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, he is definitely the best contact here in college baseball.

1077
00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 3: He just you know, I mean, and again, I mean,

1078
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 3: he seems like an I got on the field, be there.

1079
00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 3: He might not even get to the Marlins, but even

1080
00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:02,640
Speaker 3: the type of player they've tried to acquire, he fits

1081
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,560
Speaker 3: that to a t like And he's a son of

1082
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,759
Speaker 3: a big leaguer. His dad, Jack was an All Star.

1083
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,239
Speaker 3: His dad dad's a coach on the team, assistant coach

1084
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 3: at Grant Canyon now too. And it's a cliche, but

1085
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 3: it's true. You know, Jacob grew up around the game.

1086
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 3: He's got a high baseball IQ. I think he's one

1087
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:22,200
Speaker 3: of these guys who is gonna have maybe even a

1088
00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:24,080
Speaker 3: little bit more power that people suspect. I bet it's

1089
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 3: at least average power. Yeah, maybe he even gets a

1090
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:29,279
Speaker 3: little bit more than that because he can just really

1091
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 3: really hit. And I think is he I don't know

1092
00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 3: if you guys have seen him. He can get stronger.

1093
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 3: He's he's kind of a lanky guy, and as he

1094
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,360
Speaker 3: matures physically, I think there's still some development there. I

1095
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,239
Speaker 3: think he's got more power. He's probably an average shortstop.

1096
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,279
Speaker 3: That would be the question is you know, long term, Like,

1097
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 3: I think he can play shortstop. He's got goods instincts,

1098
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:54,280
Speaker 3: he's got solid arm strength. You know, it's probably averages range,

1099
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,839
Speaker 3: and ideally you probably want your big league shortstop.

1100
00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 2: To have more than average range.

1101
00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:04,280
Speaker 3: So like, I think he could play if we're project

1102
00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:06,640
Speaker 3: right now, he could play big league shortstop, but probably

1103
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 3: a situation where you'd want.

1104
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:10,280
Speaker 2: A better big league short stop, if that makes sense.

1105
00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:12,280
Speaker 3: But I do think he hit enough to play third

1106
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 3: or second. Yeah, he can lead to one of those positions,

1107
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:18,879
Speaker 3: I think without a doubt, and I think he's really

1108
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:19,359
Speaker 3: gonna hit.

1109
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 2: So yeah, he was fun. I saw him.

1110
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 3: He got hurt diving into the stands after a foul

1111
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,719
Speaker 3: ball in the first game. But I think I saw

1112
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, six at bats, and I saw four

1113
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 3: or five line drives, a couple of triples. One of

1114
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 3: the triples was actually home run the umpire's blue call.

1115
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:37,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, he I.

1116
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,800
Speaker 3: Mean he'd be You guys can remind me if I

1117
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:42,839
Speaker 3: get that one right. Like, I don't know if he'd

1118
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,439
Speaker 3: actually get to pick ten, but if he did, He's

1119
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,200
Speaker 3: exactly the type of player the Marlins have been targeting

1120
00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 3: for the last you know, six months or so.

1121
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, believe it or not. DJ Sphilick, the Marlins amateur

1122
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,919
Speaker 4: scouting director. He keeps up with some of our Fish

1123
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:58,799
Speaker 4: Stripes content. So if you're listening to this, DJ, this

1124
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:00,920
Speaker 4: is one guy to circle. Got a few months to

1125
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 4: make your decision. But I have a good feeling that

1126
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:05,759
Speaker 4: he is the kind of player that would be on

1127
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:06,280
Speaker 4: their radar.

1128
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:11,040
Speaker 3: Said, I mean, it's the hitting ability. The other tools

1129
00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:16,200
Speaker 3: are fine. The baseball que is so high. He's just

1130
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:18,600
Speaker 3: such talented player. I mean, Grant, I mean I'm not

1131
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,239
Speaker 3: basing it just on seeing you know, four hind drives

1132
00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:24,200
Speaker 3: in two days or whatever it was, but like he

1133
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:25,359
Speaker 3: just he can really really hit.

1134
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,040
