1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,960 Speaker 1: All here. Welcome in the State of the Fish, the 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: weekly Marlins space. 3 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 2: Here Fish on the first who got Eli here today? 4 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 2: I've got myself. Of course, we'll have other Fish on 5 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,399 Speaker 2: first numbers cycling in here throughout the night. But another 6 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 2: good week to look at and reviewed. Month of June 7 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 2: has just been very, very kind to the Marlins. 8 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:18,480 Speaker 1: And as you. 9 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: See at the tweet pinned at the top of the 10 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 2: page here, that is a wrap up of an important 11 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: forty game stretch for the Marlins where they played mostly 12 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 2: inferior talent throughout those forty games. And it's over and 13 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 2: the Marlins came out pretty hot. They went into that 14 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 2: stretch ten game or they went into that stretch of 15 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 2: five hundred and are now ten games over five hundred 16 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 2: and twenty five to fifteen in a forty game stretch. 17 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 2: We would have to check the stats, but that might 18 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 2: be one of the best forty game stretches for the Marlins. 19 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: Quite some time. 20 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 2: That it's it's only gonna get tougher from here. There 21 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 2: the sex thirty four game stretch. If you go ahead 22 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 2: and clip on the tweet, there are some good teams 23 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 2: in there. We'll talk about what. 24 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: Lies ahead for the Marlins. But we'll recap the week ahead. 25 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: The first here with Eli to see Mariners first intra 26 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,119 Speaker 1: league series. 27 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 2: Lost for the Marlins on the year. I actually just 28 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 2: looked up the record for the Marlins inter league play 29 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 2: this season so far, sixteen of five. I did not 30 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 2: realize it was Zach Good. I guess it helps to 31 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 2: play the Athletics and Royals, but the Marlins have given 32 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 2: the work to American League teams this year. But that 33 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 2: did not go so well against the Mariners. Got crushed 34 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: on Monday night. I guess a lot of people didn't 35 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 2: really see that one because of the heat, but it 36 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 2: just wasn't even close from the beginning. JP Crawford and 37 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 2: Leo Rodriguez and the Mariners just got it going right 38 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:38,839 Speaker 2: away against the Marlins. 39 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: Wizardo just did not have his stuff. 40 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: He has been pretty bad on the road this year 41 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: outside of today and maybe a couple other outings. It 42 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: was a good outing for him today. We'll touch on 43 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 2: that here a little bit more. But Seattle was just 44 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: hitting the ball really really well, and he got it 45 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: pretty hard as well, and he ended up on the 46 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: injured list and there Perez. 47 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: Really saved that series. They're excellent at him. 48 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 2: We're sure to see more from him now with all 49 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: the pitching injuries that have come up here in the 50 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 2: last couple of weeks. We will of course touch on 51 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 2: that as well and who Miami is starting tomorrow. But overall, 52 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: the Seattle series, I kind of saw how you. 53 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: Know, they may be a sleeping giant out in the. 54 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 2: West and the American League. There, they're a lot better 55 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 2: than what their record suggests. The Marlins being able to 56 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: pull out a win, they're kind of help them get 57 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 2: back on track to where they wanted to go into. 58 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: That National Series. 59 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 3: Right as you touched on with inter league play, Historically, 60 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 3: even obviously beyond this year, the Marlins have been one 61 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 3: of the better National League teams ever in terms of 62 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 3: inter league performance. They always seem to do even better 63 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 3: against AL teams than they do overall, the rare exception 64 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 3: being that Mariner series. We're kind of freaking out a 65 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,799 Speaker 3: little bit. I'm trying to remember exactly when we were 66 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 3: talking about it. I guess this was on Fish Unfiltered 67 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: with Kevin and Isaac when they dropped those first two games, 68 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 3: both of them in almost blowout fashion, and like it 69 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 3: had you worrying a little bit about the state of 70 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 3: the team, and it all comes down to that final 71 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 3: game and so much that hey, sus Sanchez catch to 72 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 3: seal that game, how much things could have felt a 73 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 3: whole lot different if he doesn't catch that ball, if 74 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: it goes over the wall. Because outside of that, to 75 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 3: be able to salvage a game in that series without 76 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 3: doing very much at all on offense, especially when the 77 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 3: games are actually mattering, they put on some garbage time 78 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 3: offense those first couple of games, but outside of that, 79 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 3: you just saw them getting truly dominated by goods starting pitching, 80 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 3: the kind that was kind of the formula that the 81 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 3: Marlins thought they had themselves this year is having occasional 82 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 3: dominance starting pitching out like that, And frankly, there haven't 83 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: been all that many from the Marlins as they were 84 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: just from the Mariners in those first couple of games 85 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 3: of the series, one time being no hit into the 86 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 3: sixth ending I think it was before breaking it up. 87 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 3: So yeah, for them to like salvage that final game 88 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 3: against a talented Mariners team that is performing a little 89 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 3: worse than kind of their talent would suggest to this 90 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 3: point in the season, that final game, especially yet another 91 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: a Yeri Perez masterpiece, one of his very best games, 92 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 3: got some good defense behind him, but all things considered, 93 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 3: to go through six innings for the first time in 94 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 3: his major league career. Now realizing as we fast forward 95 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 3: a little bit, knowing that his spot in the rotation 96 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 3: figures to be his for even longer than anticipated, just 97 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 3: because they're running out of alternatives right now and he 98 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 3: is showing really no signs of wearing down. So for 99 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 3: him to have that performance, that's what stood out most 100 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 3: of all is that now through seven starts in his 101 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 3: major league career, it's been unlike any other start to 102 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 3: a Marlin's major league career for a starting pitcher. That 103 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 3: he's been so good in most of these outings, and 104 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 3: the most recent one being right up there with everything 105 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 3: else that we've seen so far. 106 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: It really is a shame that he came up so 107 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: late in the year and he hasn't really been able 108 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 2: to go as long because he definitely if he keeps 109 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: us up, he definitely has a rookie in the year case, 110 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: but one no one's catching Corbyn Carroll too. You've got 111 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 2: all those Reds rookies competing. Spencer ce er Li da 112 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 2: La Curtis, Matt McLean, and then even James Outen could 113 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: work himself back into the conversation. It's it's somewhat rare, 114 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 2: not super super rare for a pitcher to win that award, 115 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 2: but either way. 116 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: He's helping the Marlins win baseball. 117 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: Game, something that's starting pitching really hasn't done too much recently. 118 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 2: We'll touch on that a little bit more, but skip 119 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 2: ahead to the National Series. And by the way, speaking 120 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: of starting pitching, how about that from the Mariners. 121 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: I mean, what a series from them. 122 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: George Kirby's legit one underlying thing that kind of like 123 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 2: went over everyone's heads but mine, just because of the 124 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 2: history behind it. 125 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 1: The Marlins finally. 126 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: Not so much got the Luis Castillo, but they didn't 127 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 2: lose a game where Luis Castillo pitched it. He always 128 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 2: as well against his former team, the team that traded 129 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: him over. 130 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: To the Reds. 131 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: They did beat him on Wednesday, so good to get 132 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 2: that monkey off their back. But skipping ahead to the 133 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 2: National Series, I mean, I don't think I've seen a 134 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 2: team dominate another in Major League. 135 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: Baseball like this for quite some time. At twenty one 136 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: to four. 137 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: In a two year span, six and oho so far 138 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 2: this year. It is a shame in this aspect that 139 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: we've gone down to thirteen games and against the divisional opponents, 140 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: because if it was still nineteen, you're talking about Marlin's 141 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 2: really stacking up some of those wins and maybe getting 142 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 2: up there closer than ninety then dap kidding, the Marlins 143 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: dominated the Nationals again. But I really want to focus 144 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 2: on that Friday night game. It's kind of been the 145 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 2: theme so far in a lot of these Sandy starts. 146 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll touch more on just how much Sandy 147 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: struggled recently. 148 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: I saw this especially against the Athletics as well. Sandy 149 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 1: got blown up right away. 150 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 2: And last year, if a pitcher got blown up right away, 151 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 2: four runs, five runs, just like that, it's four oh five, 152 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,039 Speaker 2: oh five to one whatever. And in the early parts 153 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: of the game you would sear the Marlins out of it. 154 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: You would just turn off the TV and be done 155 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: with that, go out with your day. That is not 156 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 2: the case this year. There's just the supporting cast has 157 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 2: really started to pick up slack that they've kind of 158 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: been lacking the last couple of years. And when someone's 159 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 2: not at their best, it's kind of a hey, I 160 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: got you, And Sandy alluded to that in his postgame 161 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: presser on Friday, like everyone else is playing great besides me, 162 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 2: and I've got to do better, but I'm thankful for 163 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 2: the guys behind me. And while it is the Washington 164 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: Nationals and while that was the Oakland Athletics, I don't 165 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,559 Speaker 2: see why this can't exactly continue. The Marlins find ways 166 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: to score. The top half that lineup is pretty good 167 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 2: at that booping of blast is really kind of the 168 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: theme of this Marlins team. It feels like with the 169 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: Battle Horizon Solair combos, so many guys at the top 170 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: of that lineup with pop and just the ability to 171 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 2: get on base. 172 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: And that was prevalent in this National Series. 173 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 3: Well, and aside from the usual stuff, Arise hitting a 174 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 3: home run himself in this one way farther than the 175 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 3: one he hit earlier this year, no doubt or to 176 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 3: the pull side. He well, he really carried them as 177 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 3: much as anybody in that first game, the second five 178 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 3: hit game of the season for our Rise coming off 179 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 3: that was when he entered that game. Oh for his 180 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 3: last fifteen too, that was his longest hitless stretch as 181 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 3: in Marlin and he snapped out of it in a 182 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 3: humongous way for that game with Sandy, a really discouraging start, 183 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 3: no way to really like go around that. He was 184 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,839 Speaker 3: seemingly trending in the right direction entering this game, and 185 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 3: he from the very beginning just did not have it. 186 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 3: From the very first bat of the game, he didn't. 187 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 3: He wasn't missing bats, and that contact was a lot 188 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 3: of loud contact against him. 189 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 4: He didn't. 190 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 3: He had opportunities to, you know, settle down, and they 191 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 3: when he gave back the initial lead and the Marlins 192 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 3: again put him in front, he gave back that second 193 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 3: lead as well. That is highly uncharacteristic of him. It's 194 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 3: it continue to be just an immensely disappointing year, considering 195 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 3: how high the bar that he said last year was, 196 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 3: and we've reached a point now getting awfully close to 197 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 3: the halfway mark of the season, where it's clear that 198 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 3: you just can't expect him to all of a sudden 199 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 3: flip a switch again. This has been a pretty big 200 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 3: sample of him as a different pitcher than last year. 201 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 3: The peripherals continue to suggest that he is having some 202 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 3: degree of bad luck and that's going to bounce back, 203 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 3: But overall, his change up is not the same pitch 204 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 3: as it was a year ago, and in general, he's 205 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 3: just allowing a lot more barreled balls that are going 206 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 3: to lead to a lot more damage. He doesn't have 207 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 3: quite the same defense behind him as a year ago, 208 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 3: and we'll see what Jacob a Maya can do to 209 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 3: single handedly effect that. Having him on the team should 210 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 3: help the infield defense that's been behind Sandy this year. 211 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 3: In this particular start, though it was not on the defense. 212 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 3: It was on Sandy just not having success against a 213 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:04,599 Speaker 3: pretty manageable opposing offense. We saw the next couple of 214 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 3: days that the other starters, Braxton Garrett and Heyesuslizardo, they 215 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 3: didn't have a whole lot of trouble getting having like 216 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 3: decent success quality starts against his national team, and Sandy 217 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 3: faced many of the same batter as they did and 218 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 3: obviously had a lot worse results. So he is he's 219 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 3: still the leader of this pitching staff, but he's certainly 220 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 3: not the ace of this rotation. He's just not as 221 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: good and not as effective as these other guys to 222 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 3: this point in the season, and it is shocking that 223 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 3: they are where they are with him. Pitching as poorly 224 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 3: as he has been. 225 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: If you had to give the ACE title to someone 226 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: in this rotation right now, whether it be Lozardo, Braxton Garrett, 227 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 2: or Heeddri Peis, who would you give it to. 228 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 3: It's a good question because on a per ending basis, 229 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 3: Perez is the best that they have. But we know 230 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 3: that there's this very tight leash on him, and he 231 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 3: took it about as far as he could this last start. 232 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 3: So it's hard to be the true ace of your 233 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 3: rotation if you're not even capable, if you're not actually 234 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 3: given the freedom to go deep into games even when 235 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:12,599 Speaker 3: you're on top of your game. And Braxton Garrett is 236 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: kind of in that same situation where his leash is 237 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 3: not all that much longer than Yuri's leach so far 238 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 3: this season, I think by default you have to give 239 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 3: it to Lizardo, even though I think his era is 240 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 3: a little bit higher than Braxton's this point in the season, 241 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 3: I think, by default, and that's the reality is, they 242 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 3: just don't have a really amazing ACE unless Sandy magically 243 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 3: flips the switch and just recognizing that Yuri is not 244 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,720 Speaker 3: even gonna be in this rotation throughout the entire season 245 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 3: due to his own limitations, So it has to be 246 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 3: Lizardo who at this with certain stretches of this season 247 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: has looked awesome, but frankly hasn't been. I mean even 248 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 3: he on A hasn't been quite as good as he 249 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 3: was a year ago. So it's for a team that's 250 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,280 Speaker 3: in as good a position as they are while not 251 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 3: even having a single starting pitcher that's anywhere close to 252 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 3: the All Star conversation that has been a pretty big surprise. 253 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: Got out Harv in here. So mister alexay your thoughts 254 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 2: on the week in review. One of your guys got 255 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: his debut in today and then one of your main 256 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 2: guys is on above tomorrow. 257 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if Amya is my guy. He's more 258 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 1: of like any. 259 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 2: I'm a big a Mayas fan too, But one of 260 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 2: your kids got called up and made. 261 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 1: His big, big debut. Yeah no, it's good. 262 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 5: Guy definitely deserves it, playing well with with Jacksonville, so 263 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 5: it's cool to see him here. 264 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 1: Did well today, getting a lot of the first out 265 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: of the way. 266 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 5: In his first game in front of his dad Valley 267 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 5: Sports At That's where it's just really cool. 268 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: His family was all able to make it to go 269 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: see him, which is which is awesome. 270 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 5: So yeah, I know, don't expect it to be probably 271 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 5: the longest stint in the world for him and mid 272 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 5: the Major's unless he lights the world on fire. But 273 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,079 Speaker 5: let's see what happens. Wendell's still been playing pretty well 274 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 5: this month, so they'll expect him to get plenty of time. 275 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 5: But yeah, it's cool to know that they can draw 276 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 5: from a guy like a Maya and he can come 277 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 5: up immediately and contribute to a major league team. 278 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: I think he's He's. 279 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 5: Not really a guy that should be in Triple A 280 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 5: much longer. 281 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: I don't think he. 282 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 5: Has much left to prove in Triple as. Guy's a 283 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 5: guy that needs to be up and seeing what he has, 284 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 5: especially ahead of the trade deadline like we were talking 285 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 5: about before. So yeah, it's cool to see the guy up. 286 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: It's cool to see him succeeds. So it's awesome. The 287 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 1: Braxton thing that you guys were just talking about, I. 288 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 5: Mean, this guy is I've said it earlier this year, 289 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 5: you didn't really know what you were getting from this 290 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 5: guy with the incorporation of this slier that he has. 291 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,199 Speaker 5: He's always got the curve ball, which he still is using, 292 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 5: but with the full realization and the full incorporation of 293 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 5: this slider. That's what makes him all the much more 294 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 5: better and the main reason why he's doing what he's 295 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 5: doing right now. It's not the fastball he's always had 296 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 5: to curve well, the difference as a spider and the 297 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 5: addition of the cutter as well. I would also say, 298 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 5: are the reasons why you see Braxton a lot different 299 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 5: this year than what he's been in years past. 300 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,119 Speaker 1: Which is super good. I'm super proud. 301 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 5: Of that kid, awesome guy, and I'm I'm super glad 302 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 5: to see him finally showing his full worth to. 303 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: The organization, probably the ace right now. 304 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 5: Of the staff, and that's that's amazing. He's had one 305 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 5: bad start this year, that's it. So yeah, this guy 306 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 5: deserves it. 307 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: It's super cool. Glad to see him succeeding. 308 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 5: It's fun, man, it's a fun season. As you were 309 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 5: saying before the Grand it's a it's a team that 310 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 5: just faced a lot of bad teams and these are 311 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 5: the teams that you should beat and they beat them, 312 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 5: which is very encouraging. But what stands out to me 313 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 5: is sustainability. That's the realism in this. 314 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: Is how sustainable is this? 315 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 5: Especially as they face off against better teams such as 316 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 5: the Pirates and the Blue Jays. So how do they 317 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 5: live up against these these better teams that are playing 318 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 5: equally or even better baseball? Right now, that's your measuring stick. 319 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 5: And when you look at a team that still has 320 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 5: a negative twenty four run differential, and teams don't do 321 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 5: it very often that they make the playoffs at this 322 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 5: point in the season, they have a negative run differential. 323 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,479 Speaker 1: As bad as the Marlins still. 324 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 5: Is, they don't really rely on their pitching, not the 325 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 5: rotation at least very much. The bullpen's been amazing, but 326 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 5: they haven't been able to rely on the rotation. Not 327 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 5: even their their Cy Young Award winner, they have not 328 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 5: been able to rely on him. They've had other guys 329 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 5: that have come up, like Garrett and Uri and kind 330 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 5: of held it down for the rotation. 331 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: But Ury only goes five innings to start. Garrett I 332 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: really like him, but he's one guy. 333 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 5: So yeah, there's definite question marks about is this a 334 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 5: real playoff team or is it a pretender? 335 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: There's still questions. 336 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 5: As good as it is what we're seeing right now, 337 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 5: put it into perspective that they still have a really 338 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 5: bad run differential, they've performed poorly in certain situations, especially 339 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 5: against better teams. So fan centric stuff out of the 340 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 5: way and being a realist, I'm I'm not all the 341 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 5: way bought in on this being like a sure thing, 342 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 5: sure fire, really good playoff bown season for Miami, but 343 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 5: we'll see what they do. 344 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: We're definitely gonna touch on that a little bit later 345 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: about how. 346 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 2: This is almost the passing of the torch at this 347 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: point in the schedule from easy teams harder teams, so 348 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 2: to speak. But a new one to mention is we'll 349 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 2: kind of transition here into what is happening with the 350 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 2: rotation right now and everyone ending up on the I 351 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:30,760 Speaker 2: l your guy Brian Holmes on the mountain tomorrow. It 352 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 2: is his first start quite some time, has to throw 353 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 2: more a than what thirty four pitches in about. 354 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: A month or so, but he should be good to 355 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: at least start the game tomorrow. But he might only open. 356 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 2: But as you heard, skipping that pressor say that most 357 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 2: of the bullpen should be ready. Yeah, it's it's step 358 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 2: in and see what he does. 359 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 5: Honestly, I mean they have where else can they go, like, 360 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 5: what else can they do? They this is this is 361 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 5: where they're at, and triple is literally out of pitching. 362 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 5: They are calling up guys from Low A. The guy 363 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,639 Speaker 5: that started for Jacksonville to day was his Triple A debut. 364 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 5: He skipped Single Advanced and he skipped Double A and 365 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 5: he's starting in Triple A because they just have nobody 366 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 5: else to go to and they don't want to call 367 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 5: up guys for whatever reason. That's a separate topic, but 368 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:17,919 Speaker 5: they don't want to call up guys from Double A 369 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 5: to Triple A. So they literally started a guy who 370 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 5: is pitching in low A. So so yeah, where else 371 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 5: do you go? So Brian's the guy. You know, they 372 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 5: don't really have much else in the way of of 373 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 5: guys that can fill space right now. So the depth 374 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 5: pitching depths, and I know we talk about this a 375 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 5: lot from Miami, but the Major league ready pitching depths 376 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 5: is it has become an issue. So, as I said before, 377 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 5: when you only have one guy really in the rotation 378 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 5: that you can count on right now to go out 379 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 5: and put up a quality start pretty much every time out, 380 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 5: that's Braxton. 381 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,199 Speaker 1: That's the guy. Only guy you can really count on to. 382 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 5: Go six plus innings and three or lesser and. 383 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: Runs that that's an issue with it. 384 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 5: I mean, the bullpen has been amazing, but this, this 385 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 5: is this is the weakness of this team is pitching. 386 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 5: And a couple of years ago I didn't think I 387 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 5: would say that, But right now the weakness of the 388 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 5: Marlins is starting pitching. 389 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: Not concern agreed. 390 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 2: And now we've got Trevor Rodgers no real timetable for 391 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 2: his return with an opposite throwing lat strain laposite throwing 392 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 2: arm lat strain, something like that. Rick Cabrera is on 393 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 2: the I L with no true estimate for his return. 394 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 2: Seeing a lot more discussion come back this week about 395 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 2: you know, it's is Edward maybe BAlN for the bullpen. 396 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 2: That's a whole other topic, and we can touch on that. 397 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: Maybe what was once perceived to be a strength for 398 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 2: the Marlins starting pitching. It, like Alex said, it's a 399 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 2: it's kind of falling apart a couple months in. 400 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know who in particular they're missing at this 401 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 3: particular juncture of the season, Daniel Costano. This would be 402 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 3: perfect Daniel Castano opportunity to fill in this spot and 403 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 3: bridge the game until one of the other starters is ready, 404 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 3: and he's been on the minor league IL for over 405 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 3: two months now. That has been bummer for him because 406 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 3: there have been little flashes of adequacy from him going 407 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 3: back to last season. And that's a guy that is 408 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 3: on the forty man roster for the moment, but he 409 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 3: has not been pitching for months now. That's one piece 410 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 3: that's out of the equation and it just leaves this 411 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 3: big group of uninspiring Triple A depth for them to 412 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 3: go to. We'll find out potentially if they do make 413 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 3: a roster move. Devin Smeltzer was removed from his start 414 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 3: kind of under the possibility that he would be needed 415 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 3: at the big league level. We'll see if they try 416 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 3: to put him on the team. But the expectations for 417 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 3: him just couldn't be any lower because he was for 418 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 3: the most part bad in the big leagues, with one 419 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 3: exception that game against Cleveland, and he's continued to be 420 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 3: very He's struggling just as much in Triple A as well. 421 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 3: Like since he's gone down to Triple A, it's just 422 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 3: he's not been good. He's still a well below average 423 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 3: pitcher down there. I'd like that signing in the off season, 424 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 3: but it has not really born out and hasn't really 425 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 3: helped them eat up these bulk endings. So between him 426 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 3: and obviously six though being as far away from possible 427 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 3: as being a viable pitching option, and the fact that 428 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 3: you know Jake Eater is inching his way back from 429 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 3: his injuries, but not in a candidate at this time. 430 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 3: Those other options at Triple A, the chee chee Gonzalez 431 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 3: is the Jeff Lindegrens. They're just, yeah, you can't really 432 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 3: trust them to get out to the big league level. 433 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 5: There's one man, well, go ahead, Yeah, So what what 434 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 5: would be the way Eli that you would say, or 435 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 5: what would be the reason that you think that they 436 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 5: are waiting to go to a guy who has a 437 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 5: back end rotational ceiling, who gets outs, who probably could 438 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 5: carve out a role for himself here. Maybe he goes back, 439 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 5: maybe he stays, whatever it may be. 440 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: If he stays, he stays, and you leave Trevor in 441 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 1: Triple A for a little while, whatever it may be. 442 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 5: When he gets healthy and he's fully back, what would 443 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 5: be the wait and why are they waiting on calling 444 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 5: up Patrick Monteverde. 445 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: He's twenty six years old. 446 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 3: We're reaching a point where that is an interesting conversation 447 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 3: to have been. He's been obviously awesome at Pensacola this 448 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 3: year and he is fully stretched out to start and 449 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 3: this particular thing, he's not lined up the way that 450 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 3: the schedule has lined up. He's not on regular rest 451 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 3: for tomorrow. So like in that, in this instance, you 452 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 3: can understand why they didn't put him in this situation. 453 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 3: The question is, I think he got to begin to 454 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 3: ask that beyond this game, but beyond Monday is what 455 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 3: they do with that spot. We'll see what the update 456 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 3: is on Trevor, because I think my understanding is he's 457 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 3: going to try to resume throwing tomorrow on Monday, and 458 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: I'm sure they'll disclose that during the injury update. Whether 459 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 3: or not he did that, it is a different conversation. 460 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 3: If he this is a significant setback for him and 461 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 3: he's not ready to resume throwing yet and you know 462 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 3: you have to fill multiple starts, then I think you 463 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 3: do it to talk about mons Verde. It's either that 464 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 3: or the other option is stretching out Brian hoeing again. 465 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 3: So Monday is a big day in terms of the 466 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 3: injury updates, seeing how long Hoeing can go. As Grant 467 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 3: touch on, he has not gone past thirty four pitches 468 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 3: in the game since early May. I'm sure they're gonna 469 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 3: stretch him out beyond that in this game, and as 470 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 3: long as he's kind of effective in that time, then 471 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 3: it's probably Hoeing, even more so than mons Verde, that 472 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 3: gets the first DIBs at that rotation spot. 473 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I don't see it. I mean, I 474 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: just don't see. 475 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,119 Speaker 5: I love Brian Hohan, you guys know, I like that guy, 476 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 5: but I just don't see that there's a route for 477 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 5: him to become, you know, a guy like I said before, 478 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 5: as a guy who you can count on to go 479 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 5: out there and give you a quality start. There's really 480 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,920 Speaker 5: I don't think that's in the cards. I mean, four 481 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 5: or five innings, it would be a win for him. 482 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 5: But yeah, when we're talking about a guy that you 483 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 5: need at the back end that's gonna eat innings and 484 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 5: get out quickly like you just said, Eli, and save 485 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 5: that bullpen like as good as that bullpen has been. 486 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:07,120 Speaker 1: If they keep. 487 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 5: Going like this, and they keep going with two three innings, 488 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 5: Behoeing and whatever else, it may be like there's gonna 489 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 5: be a time where that bullpen gets kind of worn out, 490 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 5: especially with with Sandy not being able to be counted 491 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 5: on right now and and only only one picture really 492 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,400 Speaker 5: in the rotation that can be counted on right now 493 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 5: to give you a quality start, You're gonna wear out 494 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,919 Speaker 5: your bullpen and they're gonna be less effective through the stretch. 495 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be it's gonna be interesting to see 496 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: what they do with this rotation. 497 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 5: Man, it's not something that I thought we would say, 498 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 5: Like even as early as the end. 499 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: Of last year, this is not something I thought we 500 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 1: would say. I thought the rotation was the strength of 501 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,199 Speaker 1: this team. It doesn't. 502 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 5: It definitely isn't right now because of injuries and everything 503 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,840 Speaker 5: else that has happened. And now you're kind of seeing 504 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 5: that the depth that you thought the Marlins did have, 505 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 5: they don't really have it that much. 506 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 1: And it's it's definitely a concern. Like I said before, 507 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: So you gotta get up the. 508 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 5: Guys that are gonna give you the meaningful innings. 509 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: And I think Monte Verdy is that guy. 510 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 5: So yeah, I know it doesn't line up now, but 511 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 5: there's got to be a route to get this guy up. 512 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 5: Like you feel the start with huling and then maybe 513 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 5: next week I would say, you know, you've got to 514 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 5: really start looking at that. 515 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 2: There's one very unattracted bosh and the most people right 516 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 2: now that could very well be a reality soon. Johnny 517 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,919 Speaker 2: Cuato is going through those rehabs bad stop a stop 518 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 2: and stop and stop. 519 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: He's got to come back up at some point. 520 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 2: He has to, and he will probably have to take 521 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 2: a rotation spot. Seems like they almost have no other option. 522 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 3: With Guato. It's at least one more minor league rehab 523 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 3: start before he's and we're close to being stretched out again. 524 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 3: But his performance has just been disastrous. Look bad in 525 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 3: spring training when he's pitching through the injury, and it 526 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 3: looked bad during his initial rehab assignment when he was 527 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,399 Speaker 3: supposedly recovered from the injury, and now the second injury, 528 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 3: the ankle injury. On his way back from that. I mean, 529 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 3: he's faced thirty something batters at double A and he 530 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 3: struck out one guy one at a thirty something. He's 531 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,679 Speaker 3: allowed more more barrels and more homers and strikeouts. So 532 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 3: like he is. I think I touched on this on 533 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 3: Ryan Selessinger's podcast yesterday. Is that with Quita like last 534 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 3: year he had success, but he did it by a 535 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 3: lot of pitching to contact. He did it despite his 536 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 3: diminishing stuff. And it's such a fine line for guys 537 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 3: at that stage of their career when they're not missing bats, 538 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 3: when there's stuff isn't what it used to be, when 539 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 3: they're kind of throwing the kitchen sink at it. The 540 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 3: fine line between being successful at that and also being 541 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 3: out of the league. It's so minute, just because you 542 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 3: can't get away with mistakes and you can't overpower any 543 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 3: hitters when your fastball is only sitting in the high 544 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 3: eighties low nineties, even from the right side. With him, 545 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 3: there's no reason to based on what we have seen 546 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 3: from him all year to this point and even recent 547 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 3: during this rehabit siment, there's just no reason to believe 548 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 3: he's going to be any good. There's no reason to 549 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 3: believe he's going to be different than the uninspiring triple 550 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 3: A options that I kind of touched on, like how 551 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 3: much better is Johnny Quato than Devin Smeltzer. At this point, 552 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 3: I can't say confidently that he is an improvement on that. 553 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 3: We'll tell you one start at a time. I believe 554 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 3: his next rehap start is likely going to be Wednesday Wednesday, 555 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 3: and we'll see whether that's in Pensacola, whether it's in Jacksonville. 556 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 3: At this stage, there's just there's no reason to believe 557 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 3: he'll be successful. I do agree with Grant that he'll 558 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 3: be back at some point. You know, they're going to 559 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,719 Speaker 3: put him on the roster and find out what they have, 560 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 3: but he is not guaranteed to stay with this organization 561 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 3: for any extended length of time if he struggles. When 562 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 3: he does make it back to the big leagues, and 563 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 3: it's going to be a short leash, and I think 564 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 3: they're going to be willing to eat that money and 565 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,439 Speaker 3: get rid of him because there's no evident value that 566 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 3: he provides at this stage given what he's shown. He 567 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 3: just looks like he looks completely washed up at this stage. 568 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,399 Speaker 3: And you just hope that the further he gets away 569 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 3: from his injury and that more that he just continues 570 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 3: to throw that something clicks with him. But it's just 571 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 3: it could not be any more discouraging. But he's shown 572 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 3: so far. 573 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, and the last rehab start he had, well, the 574 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 5: one the one where he got hurt. 575 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 1: Unfortunately, he hurt his ankle on a playoff first base. 576 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,479 Speaker 5: That was probably the worst I've seen him, honestly, Like 577 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 5: he was real bad and I think Hell had like 578 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 5: four home runs or something like that, and this is 579 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 5: triple A batters. Like one of the guys that he 580 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 5: was facing, he gave up two home runs to the. 581 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: Same guy the guy had into home run all year. 582 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 5: So it's it's like Eli said, it's time to admit, 583 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 5: like these these signings that they made, they one with 584 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 5: one and that's Yuli Gurriel. He's been really good. These 585 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 5: older guys that are hoping to bring back into form. 586 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 5: They they did it with Julie Guriel. They did not 587 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 5: do it with Jean Sigura, and they death did not 588 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,439 Speaker 5: do it with Johnny Quato. So there's going to be 589 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 5: a time where the Marlins needs to look at who's 590 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 5: providing us with. 591 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: Value and there's I don't think there's. 592 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 5: A route that exists to me from what we've seen 593 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 5: so far with Queto that would say that this guy 594 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 5: can get back to what he previously was with with 595 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 5: other teams, including the Reds, as you know Grant, So, yeah, 596 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 5: this is this is like end of the line, career 597 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 5: defining kind of like, Okay, this is what he is 598 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 5: now as he likes that kind of just not effective anymore. 599 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 5: He has doesn't have value for a major League baseball 600 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 5: team now, and I don't think there's a path for 601 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 5: him to gain that back. 602 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: So I know there's money invested, you got to be. 603 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 5: Willing to cut pay and that that's exactly what the 604 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 5: Marlins are gonna have to admit to in this case. 605 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 2: Well, he's on a one year deal, which makes it easier, 606 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 2: and you mentioned it. He's not gonna get anywhere back close. 607 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,479 Speaker 1: To his former ways. And of course I'm familiar with 608 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: his Reds days, having grown up watching him in the city. 609 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 2: But even just last year when he was to Chicago 610 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: White Sox, he had a good season, like that was 611 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: a legitimately good season for a starting pitcher. We were 612 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 2: doing all those blind who would you rather have polls 613 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 2: on Twitter where it was Pablo Lopez's numbers from last 614 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 2: year in Cueto's and Quato statistically was a pretty good picture, 615 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 2: and he just fell off, like plain and simple. And 616 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 2: you know, maybe Isaac Azeu's theory of the world baseball 617 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 2: plastic is actually coming to fruition. I don't know that 618 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 2: could have its own spaces or its own article one day. 619 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 2: But either way, it's gonna be very interesting to see 620 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 2: what happens with this rotation, so many injuries. I know 621 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 2: a lot of people are talking about Sandy ghost ilesint. 622 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: I even thought that that was. 623 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 2: Maybe something that they could do to get his confidence back, 624 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 2: just give him some time to just focus on himself. 625 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 2: But at this point you cannot afford to lose that whatsoever. 626 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be interesting to see what happens this week. 627 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 1: Howing tomorrow. I don't know who Tuesday is. Who's Tuesday? 628 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: Wednesday is supposed to be? Andy is Tuesday? 629 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 3: Give me a moment, I will find that. 630 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: I just checked. I think they have a TVV on it. 631 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: I can't remember who should be. It actually might be Fury, 632 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: It might be. 633 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 3: Maybe Yeah, he pitched on Wednesday, so that will be 634 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 3: Fury on Tuesday. 635 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: It was whoever was before Sandy. I couldn't remember the 636 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: off they threw me off. But well, we'll get to 637 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: the week ahead now here. 638 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 2: Briefly, I'm not gonna go too far ahead on that 639 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 2: thirty four games. 640 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: Since that we've got pinned the cop there. That's just 641 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: too far. But this week. 642 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 2: It gets tougher, for sure, but the opportunity gets a 643 00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 2: struggling Pirates team is really good, but the Blue Jays definitely. 644 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: Postes through it. I know he said that the Marrows 645 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: are sixteen to five and inter league plays so far. 646 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: I don't know about that. 647 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 2: Tomorrow, it would be a very improbable win if the 648 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 2: Marlwin's gounda win tomorrow. 649 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: J Brios has. 650 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 2: Been amazing this year for the Blue Jays. He's had 651 00:30:56,440 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: awesome last month. He should pose a threat to the 652 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 2: Marlins for sure. I don't know how well they're going 653 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 2: to hit him, and even if they do hit him, 654 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 2: what is going to happen with Brian Elling and whoever 655 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 2: comes out of the bullpen. 656 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: I don't want mark up guaranteed L's, but I would 657 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: think that would be definitely a top. 658 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 2: Five most probable win if the Marlins win tomorrow. But 659 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 2: you got Yer and you've got Sandy in the next 660 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 2: two games, So it should be interesting that a four 661 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 2: game set against Pittsburgh Pirates, who while they've had a 662 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 2: really good season so far, and they have an incredible 663 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 2: collection of young talent, and I believe the Marlins will 664 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 2: have to see Mitch Keller during that series, who has 665 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 2: a cy Young case, or at least did. 666 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: He's kind of fallen off recently, but that they're struggling 667 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: right now. The Pirates are definitely struggling. 668 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 2: They're playing in a weekend out Central that rebuilding Cincinnati 669 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 2: Red might have a chance to win. 670 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: They just struggled against the Brewers this weekend. The Pirates 671 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: are falling off. It's definitely another opportunity for the Marlins. 672 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 2: You know, the last two years we've said, all the 673 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 2: Pirates here, they come the schedule ready to ruin the 674 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 2: Marlin season, stick. 675 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: The dagger right in them, just like they kind of did. 676 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 2: In twenty one and twenty two. But this year it's 677 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: a whole different vibe. I feel like where the Marlins could. 678 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: Really use that to elevate themselves. And the Pirates are 679 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: just playing terrible baseball right now. 680 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 2: And while a four game set is that play a 681 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 2: chance to pick themselves back up. 682 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: Take three out of four in a four game set's 683 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: going to be a huge for either team. 684 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 2: And while series could definitely be as split, as Eli 685 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 2: likes to say, always if you're predicting a four game set, 686 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 2: always go for the split. 687 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: Taken three or four in. 688 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 2: The series would be huge for either team to get 689 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 2: the Pirates right back in that central race to really 690 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 2: elevate the Marlins. 691 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:36,959 Speaker 1: To the New Heights. 692 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 2: So Eli and Alex as well, what are you guys 693 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,959 Speaker 2: really looking at in this next seven days for Miami? 694 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 3: Yeah? With the Blue Jays, they're just a fascinating team, 695 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:53,000 Speaker 3: even though they're there's in contention still. I think a 696 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 3: lot of people would categorize them as a disappointing team 697 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 3: to the stage in the season. They have such a 698 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,719 Speaker 3: on paper or they have as good a lineup as 699 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 3: you could put together, but it hasn't been clicking on 700 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 3: all cylinders at the same time as somebody that has 701 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 3: Vladimir Guerrero Junior that had him in my fantasy team 702 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 3: for most of the year before getting tired of him. 703 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 3: He's not quite the player that he was a couple 704 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: of years ago, even though he's still in the middle 705 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,760 Speaker 3: of that lineup. It's I mean, they have a couple 706 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 3: of stars that are carrying them at one time or another, 707 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 3: but they haven't like fully clicked at one particular stage 708 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 3: in order to actually put together a really extended winning streak. 709 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 3: I'd say that the way that the pitching lines up 710 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 3: is tough for the Marlins because Barrios he is finally 711 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 3: back to the pitcher that the Bullets thought they were 712 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 3: getting when they extended him. And Kevin Gossman is a 713 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 3: lot more good than bad. He's a guy that just 714 00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 3: has incredible control and gets a heading count so consistently 715 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 3: and then puts you away on his amazing splitter on 716 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 3: those two particular games. Like even with Sandy going in 717 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 3: the finale of this series, I think the Blue Jays 718 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 3: have a very clear advantage in both and in both 719 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 3: the start and the ends of this upcoming series for 720 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 3: a team that kind of does have a lot of 721 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 3: pressure to get things going given the way that they've 722 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 3: performed and that they're coming off a game today where 723 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 3: they just blew a six to nothing lead. So there. Yeah, 724 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 3: the bullpen is kind of it has a lot of 725 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 3: familiar faces, a lot of former Marlins. Doesn't have Anthony 726 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 3: Bass anymore, but it does have some other guys that 727 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 3: you'll recognize, and they're just I think they're even though 728 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 3: their record is worse than the Marlins, I feel like 729 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 3: they are more talented team than they are. So this 730 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 3: would be yet another series where I'm probably gonna predict 731 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 3: the Marlins to lose it, but we'll find out for 732 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 3: sure tomorrow. Yet, when you just look at the performance, like, yeah, 733 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,359 Speaker 3: this is a Blue Jay team that doesn't score quite 734 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,359 Speaker 3: as many runs as you would expect, and they've been 735 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 3: allowing more runs than you'd expect to this point in 736 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 3: the season. So yeah, they're i'd say, entering the season, 737 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 3: this looks like it would be one of their tougher 738 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 3: matchups with the entire season. But as I mentioned, the 739 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 3: Blue Jays just aren't quite as good in reality as 740 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 3: they are on paper. 741 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 2: Admittedly, I was the one who traded for Vladimir Guerra 742 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 2: Junior from Mister I've also got Darn Bar Show as well, 743 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 2: which I've been following the Blue Jays last couple weeks, 744 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,800 Speaker 2: and yeah, it's been disappointing from an oppensive standpoint. 745 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 1: They've got so much talent on. 746 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 2: That team, and you know, maybe this is a series 747 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 2: where it breaks out for them. We were kind of 748 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 2: talking about that this time last week, where man, the 749 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 2: Mariners should be a lot better than they are and 750 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 2: where's that breakout coming? And the breakout hasn't quite happened yet, 751 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 2: But you kind. 752 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,560 Speaker 1: Of saw some flashes up with what Seattle's capable of them. 753 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 1: Anything from you, mister Carr before we turn it over 754 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: to the bump part of the show. No, not really. 755 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 1: I think you guys kind of carvered it. 756 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 5: I mean, it's still a team that's even though they've 757 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 5: kind of they kind of struggled a little bit with 758 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 5: the Blue. 759 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: Jays, and in some aspects, I think the. 760 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 5: Pirates are the surprise of the Major League Baseball season 761 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 5: with how they've come back from being the perennial losers 762 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 5: out there. They've kind of got a lot of role 763 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 5: players on that team that are doing really well. Then 764 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 5: you have Reynolds right there in the middle of it 765 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 5: as well. It's also doing very well offensively again too, 766 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 5: So that's gonna be a fun series as well Aspirates. 767 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 5: But but yeah, no Blue Jays. This is definitely a 768 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 5: star set of lineup, stacked lineup. You're gonna see Donnie's 769 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 5: return to Miami, which will be fun. I'm sure one 770 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 5: of you guys will talk to him. Whoever, whoever's reporting 771 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 5: for this series, I'm sure you guys will. 772 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 2: The two people you're talking to are the only two 773 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 2: Fish on first members who are not in Miami. 774 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, well I'm I'm far away too, I'm like 775 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: an hour and a half away, but not as far 776 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:32,720 Speaker 1: as you guys. 777 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 5: But I'm sure you guys will have somebody there, Kevin 778 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 5: or Daniel who Ripert is that that'll get maybe get 779 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,879 Speaker 5: a work with Donnie. It'll be cool to see him back. 780 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:41,399 Speaker 5: I'm sure he'll get it, thank you and everything else 781 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 5: on the board, and it'll be cool. 782 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:44,879 Speaker 1: But yeah, no, it's it's just it's. 783 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,800 Speaker 5: A lot of names in this lineup. There's there's definitely 784 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 5: so much, so much talent on this on this team, 785 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 5: and it's gonna be fun to see them, and it's 786 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 5: gonna be fun to see how the Marlins measure up 787 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 5: to a team who who is one of the better 788 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 5: teams than baseball. Even tho they're a little underachieving right now, 789 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 5: this is definitely one of the better lineups in baseball 790 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 5: face So how the pitching stacks out, how the Marlins 791 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 5: stacked up against their pitching, as you guys were just saying, 792 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 5: will definitely be a good test for this. 793 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: Team, especially just the contrast. 794 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 5: Where they just played all these really bad teams and 795 00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 5: now you're playing a really good team but what happens, right. 796 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: So it'll it'll it'll be nice to see how. 797 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 5: They adjust and make that adjustment to better competition, which 798 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 5: will be will be fun to see and that'll be 799 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 5: the question mark as they go along through the rest. 800 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:26,800 Speaker 1: Of the schedule. 801 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 5: But yeah, a fun team of fun lineup of the 802 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 5: Blue Jays. 803 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 1: They are still top ten in. 804 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 5: Baseball and OPS so they have a positive rendefferential of 805 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 5: plus nineteen, so they're they're a decent team. They're still 806 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 5: a good team and making get even better as we 807 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:40,759 Speaker 5: go along here. 808 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 1: So it's going to be a fun test for Miami 809 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: here in the streets. I don't think he could have 810 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: said it better. 811 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 2: That's play a sleeping giant potentially, even though again that 812 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,800 Speaker 2: record is good and you've got a talent like Laddie. 813 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 2: He's bottled the wake up at any point.

I'm gonna touch on 866 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 6: what Alex said. The man Alex, we actually said it earlier. 867 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,480 Speaker 6: If anybody wasn't there. The Marlins Radio had a space 868 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 6: in the morning on Sunday, and I asked about Anthony Maldonado. 869 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 6: I don't know if Alex said his name at all, 870 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 6: because I really wasn't paying attention not get brought up. 871 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:41,399 Speaker 6: Now he does deserve to be up, but I think 872 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,879 Speaker 6: that he's gonna be replacing Archie Bradley. But I believe 873 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 6: Archie Bradley's gonna play this series or wait until Edward 874 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 6: Carbert comes back. In my opinion, I think they dfa 875 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 6: Bradley and bring up Maldonado as it was previously stated. 876 00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:00,080 Speaker 6: I mean, Bradley's been up since when how long? For 877 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 6: like since the Seattle series, and he hasn't pitched. I 878 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 6: know he pitched like thirty he had like thirty pitches 879 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:05,799 Speaker 6: and like any I don't know how many how many 880 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,760 Speaker 6: innings pitch that I think I fell asleep. But his 881 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 6: stats are too good. We you guys have been saying 882 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 6: he's been he's. 883 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:14,720 Speaker 1: Better than what's his name. 884 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 6: Then Nardi and Nardi has been amazing these last couple 885 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,879 Speaker 6: of months. Uh, And I think that he's gonna find 886 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 6: his way into that bullpen and that's gonna bolster the bullpen. 887 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 6: I'm not gonna talk about my turney for my Panamanians 888 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 6: because just it's always bring comes up and up and up. 889 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,879 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna change my my thing. 890 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,919 Speaker 6: But uh yeah, that's someone that needs to be up soon. 891 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: Same thing with Davier Edwards. 892 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 6: He's what he's hit. He hit his second home run today. 893 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 6: I think he's hitting like four hundred something like that. 894 00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 6: Seeing the stat on there since getting since like, let 895 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 6: me find the stack one second here. 896 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean the thing, the thing is Romeo, not 897 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 5: to interrupt you, but the thing is that you have 898 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,439 Speaker 5: to find room for these guys to uh to contribute. 899 00:41:58,600 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: So there are guys down there that. 900 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 5: Definitely needs to be up. I agree with you on Maldonado. 901 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 5: I agree with you on Xavior Edwards. I also would 902 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 5: agree on Dane Myers, who's another guy who's kind of 903 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 5: pushing his way up. But you need to find root 904 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,680 Speaker 5: for these guys to start contributing regularly. And there's really 905 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 5: with the way that this bullpenner is performing, in terms 906 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:19,880 Speaker 5: of Maldonado, with the way that this bullpener is performing, 907 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 5: what's his role, Like what would be his role? If 908 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:26,479 Speaker 5: you call him up right, you can't replace Nardi, can't 909 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 5: place Puck like you can't mess with that bullpen the 910 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 5: way that it is right now, because it's just been 911 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:34,399 Speaker 5: that good. The thing with Andrew Nardi, Matt like, because 912 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 5: you brought up the name. Don't you talk about Maldonado, 913 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 5: but you brought up the name. So I am never 914 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 5: short on thoughts about Andrew Nardi because when everyone else, 915 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 5: everyone else, everyone else last year was out, was like, yeah, 916 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 5: Andrew Nardi, he's you know, just ad a quad a player. 917 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 5: He came up and he was terrible and he was 918 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 5: he was not good. And it is hent with Miami 919 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 5: last year. But this is why you wait, This is 920 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 5: why you feel things out. This is why you don't 921 00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 5: give up on players when they come up and in their. 922 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 1: Major league debuts, it happens, and this is how players 923 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: fill it out. And you're seeing what Andrew Nardi is 924 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 1: doing now, that's something that only ten other Miami Marlins 925 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: have ever done ever in the history of the thirty 926 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,319 Speaker 1: years of baseball at this team. This stint for him 927 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 1: is spectacular. 928 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 5: Is showing you exactly the use that this guy has 929 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 5: as a guy that just uses pitches, uses literally all 930 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 5: three of his pitches, keeps guys guessing, gets guys off balance, 931 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 5: and just records meaningful outs. 932 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 1: He's great. He's an awesome dude. 933 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 5: I am so glad for this guy and that the 934 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 5: Marlins didn't run to another alex Vesia situation because that's 935 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 5: where I but that's where I thought it was going. 936 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 5: When everybody was saying, oh yeah, just send the guy down, 937 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 5: just dfa the guy, just get rid of him, just 938 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 5: trade him. 939 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 1: This is that. 940 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 5: No, this is why you don't do that, because you 941 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,839 Speaker 5: can see what guys do when they're given the time 942 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 5: they need to succeed as major League baseball players. And 943 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 5: that's exactly what Nardi is doing now. 944 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: And he's been great. 945 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 5: You see him in safe situations when puck is not available, 946 00:43:58,400 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 5: he has two saves. 947 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 1: This guy's good. 948 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 5: And to pitch as meaningful innings as he has and 949 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 5: get done when he's gotten done is very, very impressive 950 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:08,160 Speaker 5: and should not be discounted. 951 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,920 Speaker 2: I think Andrew Nardi has an All Star Game case. 952 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,359 Speaker 2: I don't think he'll make it. I think he's got 953 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 2: a case. 954 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 3: You can make an argument, well, yeah, it's it's not 955 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 3: really relevant. He's not gonna make an All Star Game 956 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 3: just because of his role on the team. I think 957 00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:22,480 Speaker 3: what you're simply saying is that he has a case 958 00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 3: for being one of the best relievers in baseball. So 959 00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 3: far this season, he has been immensely valuable with both 960 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,880 Speaker 3: preventing his own runs and even more so something we 961 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 3: constantly point out, the way that he's stranding runners. He 962 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:39,479 Speaker 3: constantly being brought into difficult situations with runners on base, 963 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 3: and he's been automatic at getting out of those innings 964 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 3: by missing more bets and not allowing even those productive auts. 965 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,600 Speaker 3: He's been outstanding. One of the big mysteries last year. 966 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 3: I was somebody that was also very high on Nardi 967 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 3: when he was coming to the big leagues, and it 968 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 3: was just baffling last year to see how his fastball 969 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 3: did not play the way I thought it would. I 970 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 3: thought he would get a whole lot of of whiffs 971 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,280 Speaker 3: up in the zone with it last year. Instead, opponents 972 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:07,320 Speaker 3: hit three point ninety. They slugged seven fifty six against 973 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 3: his fastball last year, and now this year, this is 974 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 3: what I expected. Those numbers have been cut in half, 975 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,279 Speaker 3: from a three ninety batting average against to a two 976 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 3: hundred against the fastball, from a seven to fifty six 977 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,279 Speaker 3: slugging to a three fifty four. The whiff rate is 978 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 3: about the same as it was before. He's just getting 979 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 3: those whiffs in when he's already ahead in the count. 980 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 3: This it was unlucky before and now. I don't think 981 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 3: he's going to continue the scoreless strict the entire year, 982 00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 3: but he This is a lot closer to the reality 983 00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 3: of him. This is the player that we thought he 984 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 3: would be.

I look 1009 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 6: at my phone Marco Vargas highlights. Uh do you think 1010 00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 6: that he finds his way onto like Loway at all? 1011 00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 1: Or you think he stayed Where is he? 1012 00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not a bad question because he's been really 1013 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 5: really good. But this is still what only like eleven 1014 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 5: twelve games he's in the FCL, so he's playing state 1015 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:12,359 Speaker 5: side ball. He's eighteen. They are, I mean, they kind 1016 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 5: of switch him around a bit, but the word that 1017 00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 5: I get and the vibe that I get from his 1018 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 5: development is that they want him to continue to play 1019 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 5: shortsop and this guy has such a simple approach man 1020 00:47:22,680 --> 00:47:23,399 Speaker 5: and is really good. 1021 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:26,240 Speaker 1: So I'm really high on Marco Vargas. 1022 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 5: Me and Danny will have a top one hundred coming 1023 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 5: out really soon, and you'll see him in the top fifteen. 1024 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 1: Of mine. 1025 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 5: I'm very high on that player. I think he's really, really, 1026 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,839 Speaker 5: really mature for his age. They loved him in spring training. 1027 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 5: I talk to people in spring training in my league 1028 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 5: spring training, and they loved that guy. So the team 1029 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 5: is really high on him, and I think it's for 1030 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 5: a very good reason. 1031 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 1: But I would expect him to spend. 1032 00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 5: Probably the whole season in the FCL before getting up 1033 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 5: to a new level next year. 1034 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: I want the field face soft against South Manila. 1035 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,800 Speaker 6: That's I was just about to ask, because since alec Mono. 1036 00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,480 Speaker 1: Is down there, where he faced him at all, or. 1037 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 6: Because I don't know, down there just to love he's 1038 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 6: really down there just to lose weight and do the 1039 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 6: pitch might be so. 1040 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 1: He'd be completely wrong on this. 1041 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 2: I might be completely wrong on this, but teams that 1042 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 2: have spring training in Florida do the Florida Complex League, 1043 00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 2: and teams that do Arizona spring training have the Arizona 1044 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:19,600 Speaker 2: Complex Sleep. 1045 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 1: Am I wrong on that? 1046 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 5: No, you're right, and Toronto's and Dunedin, so there is 1047 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:27,359 Speaker 5: a chance that and I think I think they match 1048 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 5: up on the SCL schedule. 1049 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 1: I have to double check, but I'm pretty sure they 1050 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:30,239 Speaker 1: match up. 1051 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:33,240 Speaker 5: I just don't know if like Minoa would be facing 1052 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 5: off against Argus in particular, but I'm pretty sure they match. 1053 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 1: Up on the schedule. It's a funny ticket. 1054 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 6: One more thing, one more thing to say before yeah, 1055 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 6: is Josh Pelosio's I believe his name is the six 1056 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 6: to eleven. 1057 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:48,479 Speaker 7: Guy. 1058 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 1: How is he doing? Joe on Platio's six eleventh pictures? 1059 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 5: The Johann Plastios Is that that you mean? Yeah, that's 1060 00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 5: the Marlins, not Louis Plasio. No, yeah, So Johan Plastios 1061 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 5: is a pitcher. 1062 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 1: As you said, He's pitched two games, two innings, and. 1063 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 5: He's allowed one hit and that's it. So that that's 1064 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 5: that's about all I. 1065 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:15,879 Speaker 1: Can give you on him. 1066 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 5: I haven't really seen much film or anything on him, 1067 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,359 Speaker 5: but yes, I know he is a very very tall 1068 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:20,919 Speaker 5: young man. 1069 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 1: That's pretty much what I can give you on this. 1070 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: He doesn't correct. I believe that's that's what it is. Yeah, yeah, 1071 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure you're right. 1072 00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:36,279 Speaker 5: So so yeah, eighteen years old, another really really young kid. 1073 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,319 Speaker 5: He's he's again down there with the rookie affiliate, like 1074 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 5: I just said, still in the DSL. So played in 1075 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 5: the DFL last year. Was not good in eleven games 1076 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:50,520 Speaker 5: and playing down there again, and looks like they've converted 1077 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 5: him to release work. So it looks like he's gone 1078 00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 5: from starter he started all your last year and this 1079 00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:57,840 Speaker 5: year he's had two appearances so far, both in relief 1080 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,400 Speaker 5: and spingle innings. So lo like they're they're looking at 1081 00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 5: relief work for this guy, uh. 1082 00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:04,920 Speaker 1: In the future. Now, that's why I can give you 1083 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:05,719 Speaker 1: on that on that name. 1084 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 3: Is he on your top one hundred prospects list, Alex 1085 00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 3: or if he missed the cut? He just missed the cut. 1086 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: Actually, he's actually not on my top one hundred. 1087 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,839 Speaker 3: Yes, I think that's a pretty concise summary of where 1088 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:17,200 Speaker 3: he's at. 1089 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,759 Speaker 6: Okay, I said it was the last question, but this 1090 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:22,839 Speaker 6: is actually the last question. 1091 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:25,400 Speaker 1: What's his name? 1092 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 6: The Japanese guy that moved to Venezuela and is now 1093 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 6: in the DSL. 1094 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: How is he doing? 1095 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,680 Speaker 6: Because I really don't know. I don't know where to 1096 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,399 Speaker 6: look for this stuff, So ask Alex Carter while he's here. 1097 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 6: I feel like that's that's a good thing to ask 1098 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 6: for Eli. 1099 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's that's her resource. That is Hiroshi Takahashi, 1100 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 3: the right handed pitcher who's also in the DSL. With him, 1101 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 3: and there's not a whole lot more to say. We 1102 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 3: do have a little video courtesy of his Instagram account, 1103 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:55,839 Speaker 3: so I've actually like seen him pitching and I saw 1104 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 3: him get a strikeout on a breaking ball, So he's 1105 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:01,879 Speaker 3: not just the one pitch guy this stage. But it's 1106 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,359 Speaker 3: kind of the same thing where it's so preliminary. He's 1107 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 3: going to be in the DSL for this entire season. 1108 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 3: You know, if everything goes great, then he'll be in 1109 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 3: the FCL next season, and that's kind of where we'll 1110 00:51:14,000 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 3: eventually get moderately interested in where he's going to this point. 1111 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 3: But I know he had one decent outing and then 1112 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 3: he had won pretty rough outing so far to this 1113 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 3: point in the season. Leta's see if I could get 1114 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 3: his stats. 1115 00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not good. 1116 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 5: Two games, three innings pitched an area of twenty one 1117 00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 5: because he has seven earned girls allow so he's seventeen 1118 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:35,880 Speaker 5: years old. 1119 00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,480 Speaker 1: So I mean it's like to play. I said, it's 1120 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:38,040 Speaker 1: two games in. 1121 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,440 Speaker 5: His per career, so I can wait to see how 1122 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 5: he does. But yes, like he like said, it's very preliminary. 1123 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 5: We don't get a ton of stuff out of these levels. 1124 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 1: Like I know sometimes that we can connect with the 1125 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:50,319 Speaker 1: source and. 1126 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 5: Maybe get some video and stuff like that, but unless 1127 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 5: you're there in person, and I'm at some of the 1128 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,280 Speaker 5: SBL games, so I can give you more on the FCL, 1129 00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 5: especially than the DSL because we just don't see anything 1130 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 5: other than box scores, so it's kind of hard to 1131 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,880 Speaker 5: go buy anything other than the numbers, which is not 1132 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:08,799 Speaker 5: what we should be doing at these levels. These are 1133 00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,520 Speaker 5: kids that are at the youngest stages of their professional 1134 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 5: careers and you just gotta wait and see, man, Like 1135 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 5: that's that's That's pretty much what it is at this. 1136 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,319 Speaker 1: Young of a level. But see how they do. 1137 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,400 Speaker 5: I love the short season leaks. They're one of my 1138 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,479 Speaker 5: favorite things to cover and follow along with. So so yeah, 1139 00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:26,839 Speaker 5: but yeah, the name Marco Marcus.

And guys, I'm concerned 1154 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:28,840 Speaker 8: about his usage when you check the totals is merely 1155 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 8: like fifteen percent. 1156 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:33,280 Speaker 1: He's been using the curve and his sinker. 1157 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:38,240 Speaker 8: I think so the other three he's okay with Hughsing. 1158 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 8: I think it's Steve four, Steamer two Seaman and the 1159 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:45,120 Speaker 8: changeup we just become bidding practice. And I wanted to 1160 00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 8: ask you, guys, what do you think about one the 1161 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 8: selection that the skipper is allowing Fortes or Stallings. 1162 00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:54,600 Speaker 1: To allow Sandy to pitch with. 1163 00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:57,520 Speaker 8: Sandy may need to change now that he's twenty seven 1164 00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 8: coming up into the big he has five he has 1165 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 8: to make a change. 1166 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 1: The change of has become biding practice. 1167 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 8: And the two samers to the writings, he's not putting 1168 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 8: it in the place that he wants. 1169 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 1: What's your guys thoughts on that? 1170 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,920 Speaker 5: Oh man, I love these conversations I'm gonna let somebody 1171 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:14,880 Speaker 5: else go ahead, but I. 1172 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 1: Love pitch usage questions. But I'm gonna let Eli. 1173 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:21,400 Speaker 5: Or Grant go ahead as a base response. As a 1174 00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 5: base response, and I'm not gonna go too long. I'm 1175 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:24,799 Speaker 5: gonna to Eli fully answer you. But this is a 1176 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 5: great question, by the way. So the reason for this 1177 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 5: is because he, like you just said, sure, if he 1178 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 5: does not have the change up, and that it was 1179 00:54:34,120 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 5: his most valuable pitch last year, it's his least valuable 1180 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 5: pitch this year. That's the reason that he's had trouble 1181 00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:42,680 Speaker 5: adjusting and why he's not keeping hitters as off balance 1182 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 5: as he was. But I'm gonna let Eli go ahead. 1183 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 5: But yes, the elimination of the change up. Realistically, the 1184 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:49,600 Speaker 5: elimination of the change up from his arsenal is the 1185 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 5: main difference. 1186 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 3: What I wanted to point out, specifically, as you correctly 1187 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 3: brought up, Sharif, is that in this last outing he 1188 00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 3: allowed a home run, a leadoff home run on a 1189 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,240 Speaker 3: four seamer to start the game, and then he almost 1190 00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 3: went away from it entirely. What made the standout quality 1191 00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 3: of last year's pitch usage is that it was almost 1192 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:14,440 Speaker 3: an even split between all four of his main pitches 1193 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,000 Speaker 3: last year twenty five, twenty five, twenty five, twenty five, 1194 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,879 Speaker 3: there was he was avoiding any patterns with it, and 1195 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,239 Speaker 3: each of those had a role in his arsenal in 1196 00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 3: this last particular game. To see him like just go 1197 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 3: away from his four seamer, the pitch that is is 1198 00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 3: pretty important for him to get whiffs when his changeup 1199 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 3: is not working. And for him to go through that 1200 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 3: entire outing and only get one strikeout against the Nationals 1201 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 3: and more than five innings, it's it's not a coincidence 1202 00:55:42,160 --> 00:55:44,440 Speaker 3: for him to when he's making he's using his pitches 1203 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 3: like that and then obviously just not getting enough swing 1204 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 3: and miss to overcome all the hard contact and he's yeah, 1205 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:54,839 Speaker 3: he's just not going to be very effective. You you 1206 00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:58,040 Speaker 3: touched on it pretty well though. Where that Yeah, I. 1207 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 8: Think what it comes down to is what is mel 1208 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:05,799 Speaker 8: and Skip talking about? Because for me, we all know 1209 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:09,359 Speaker 8: he has a bugs Bunny curve. We very rarely see 1210 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,279 Speaker 8: him use it. Maybe the confidence is in there to 1211 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:14,680 Speaker 8: drop it and all four quadrant of the zone. 1212 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,759 Speaker 1: I think he should start well, he should have. 1213 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:19,800 Speaker 8: Been working on that and he's if he's not able 1214 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,440 Speaker 8: to use that Bugs bunny curve. Then people are just 1215 00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:24,359 Speaker 8: going to time up the right He's going to time 1216 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 8: up the two seamer coming in, and then of course 1217 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,279 Speaker 8: anyone can size up a four steamer when you don't 1218 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:32,880 Speaker 8: have anything else that you're keeping them off balanced with. 1219 00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:38,920 Speaker 3: So he had spoken in spring training about using that 1220 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:42,680 Speaker 3: curve more often. Last year he went all with sliders, 1221 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:45,799 Speaker 3: and that pitch was probably last year, the slider was 1222 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 3: probably the weakest part of his arsenal. It was mostly 1223 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:54,319 Speaker 3: about the sinkers and the changeup to when he was 1224 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 3: on top of his game. And he spoke entering this 1225 00:56:56,640 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 3: year about reincorporating that curve ball, and he hasn't really 1226 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,919 Speaker 3: followed through on it very much at all, with only 1227 00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,719 Speaker 3: a few exceptions that I can think of, So that's 1228 00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 3: that's part of the issue. But frankly, I thought he 1229 00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:10,360 Speaker 3: was heading in the right direction prior to this last start. 1230 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 3: This last start in many ways was one of the 1231 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:17,040 Speaker 3: more discouraging points of his season because he just undid 1232 00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 3: a lot of the progress that I thought he was 1233 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,200 Speaker 3: making the previous couple of times. And now well, and 1234 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 3: now we'll see because now he's going up against one 1235 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 3: of the very toughest lineups that he's faced all year. 1236 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 3: He'll be facing the Blue Jayson this upcoming series, and 1237 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 3: uh yeah, we'll see what happens because I fear that 1238 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 3: that could get pretty ugly. 1239 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, one more answer this question too, if you want. 1240 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 1: He loves this kind of stuff. So Isaac think the 1241 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 1: question is just about Sandy's pitch usage. Job, sure, he 1242 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 1: posed the question here. 1243 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 2: That so the question what exactly about Sandy's pitch selection 1244 00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:03,960 Speaker 2: is what you're there, Hilly. We touched on it pretty well, 1245 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:07,960 Speaker 2: but it's just about Sandy going towards four seamers and. 1246 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 1: Stuff like that. That's kind of you like that kind 1247 00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:10,480 Speaker 1: of stuff. 1248 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, nobody that started against the Nationals. You know, I 1249 00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 9: pick him for a series, MBB. I wasn't able to 1250 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:17,840 Speaker 9: watch too much. It was a travel day for me, 1251 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 9: So I think someone else will be better clips to 1252 00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:21,280 Speaker 9: take that one. 1253 00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 1: We touched on. 1254 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,600 Speaker 2: I just wanted to get to get you included on 1255 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 2: this one, but you all have your question. 1256 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 1: Thank you. 1257 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:33,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, I appreciate you guys answers. I'm not concerned with 1258 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 8: the hitting at all. I think Skip is trying to 1259 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:40,280 Speaker 8: implement the bunt more. But what is happening is we're 1260 00:58:40,360 --> 00:58:44,760 Speaker 8: actually hitting, and so we don't need to scrap hits 1261 00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 8: and move guys with buns. But I notice he's he's 1262 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 8: forcing it. But once again, we're hitting, so we don't 1263 00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:55,040 Speaker 8: really need it. And that's what's impressive too. I've watched 1264 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 8: every game so in that, but hey, let's keep hitting 1265 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 8: once against. I think someone mentioned it earlier, the fact 1266 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 8: that we're not having near all star caliber pitching and starter, 1267 00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 8: but yet it yet for ten games over five hundred, 1268 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:13,600 Speaker 8: so that's amazing. I'll let someone else come up. I 1269 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 8: appreciate you guys once again. 1270 00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, great question. I love I love the pitches and stuff, 1271 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 1: so that's a great question. 1272 00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,920 Speaker 5: But yeah, man, I really have no doubt that Fanny's 1273 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 5: going to roll back into four man eventually. He just 1274 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:28,240 Speaker 5: needs to get that change up back, and I think 1275 00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 5: that makes all the difference. 1276 00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 1: In the war for him. 1277 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:32,480 Speaker 9: It was such a scary, such a scary start that 1278 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 9: the National start. I did, obviously, you know, catch up 1279 00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:38,200 Speaker 9: a little bit, but the Oakland third inning and that 1280 00:59:38,320 --> 00:59:41,640 Speaker 9: National start just really far away. I know he'll be 1281 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:43,440 Speaker 9: he'll bounce back, but he really is fart in a 1282 00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:45,400 Speaker 9: way from what he was last year, and I think 1283 00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:46,760 Speaker 9: a big part of it is the lack of shift 1284 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:49,120 Speaker 9: for it, because he grabble pitcher and think he's trying 1285 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:51,880 Speaker 9: to you know, over like. 1286 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 1: Sort of or stimulate what he was doing last. 1287 00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,520 Speaker 9: Year and just pitched the contact and now he's trying 1288 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 9: to strike guys that which is just not really his game. 1289 00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:01,480 Speaker 1: And I think that's the big issue. All Right, Well, 1290 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 1: thank you very much for if we appreciate it. We'll 1291 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:04,480 Speaker 1: get another speaker. 1292 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 2: That is one of the better questions we've had in 1293 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 2: these spaces. 1294 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:09,040 Speaker 1: That's a good depth. 1295 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:11,560 Speaker 2: I'm not equipped answer that, but of course we got 1296 01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 2: guys like Eli, Alex and Isaac on the panel. 1297 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:16,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna bring him. 1298 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 2: Brian here, So Brian, good evening, and uh, what's your 1299 01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 2: question for us? 1300 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:21,959 Speaker 1: Hey you guys, evening. 1301 01:00:22,040 --> 01:00:26,840 Speaker 7: Thanks again for all the coverage and everything regarding the pitching. 1302 01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 7: That's probably one of the biggest pictures for now. If 1303 01:00:28,840 --> 01:00:31,960 Speaker 7: you guys touched on it prettyten there you're seeing it 1304 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:35,840 Speaker 7: across you know, Triple A and MLB. The pitching is 1305 01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:39,240 Speaker 7: really bad, except for maldon Ado. I mean, obviously he's 1306 01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 7: been really good. My prediction is I think Devin Smeltz 1307 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:44,920 Speaker 7: is gonna come up and I don't know if he's 1308 01:00:44,960 --> 01:00:47,440 Speaker 7: gonna probably start a game or if I have to 1309 01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 7: guess you're probably gonna back up holding tomorrow. I would 1310 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:53,040 Speaker 7: say if he does join the team. Devin Smeltzer, I 1311 01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 7: think he looked okay in his last starting triple A 1312 01:00:55,760 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 7: from what I believe that I witnessed. And then Edwards 1313 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,840 Speaker 7: and Davey Myers, I mean, they're pretty much coulding get 1314 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:07,000 Speaker 7: right now if we're getting closer and closer than the 1315 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 7: deadline and obviously gonna say we're buyers. I mean, is 1316 01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 7: that there's no obviously no root for these guys right now. 1317 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 7: If you're in the big league team, if you guys 1318 01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:16,280 Speaker 7: consider putting them in a package and sending them off 1319 01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:19,040 Speaker 7: for something of a player of need that we need. 1320 01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 1: It really spends on what's out there. 1321 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 2: Really, I mean, it is still very very bleaked to 1322 01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,360 Speaker 2: see what the trade market's gonna look like. I didn't 1323 01:01:29,400 --> 01:01:33,240 Speaker 2: really set up a set like trade conversation for this space. 1324 01:01:33,320 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 2: Is because we had some teams picked out last week 1325 01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:38,280 Speaker 2: where we thought, oh, these teams. 1326 01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 1: Could definitely be sellers. 1327 01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:41,840 Speaker 2: Let's pinpoint these guys, like a lot of the bad 1328 01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 2: teams won this week, or the teams that were kind 1329 01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:46,280 Speaker 2: of like Peter tottering back and. 1330 01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:48,920 Speaker 1: Forth between buyer and seller, and we just don't know. 1331 01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 1: We really don't know now. 1332 01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:52,960 Speaker 2: But in terms of packing those players, and I think 1333 01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 2: you've seen so far in the rotation that depth can't hurt. 1334 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 1: I wouldn't fully I love to clip. 1335 01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,600 Speaker 2: But uh, I think the Marms are just gonna take 1336 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 2: whatever the right offer is to make the team better. 1337 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:09,040 Speaker 1: One core strength of kim Ang is trading. 1338 01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:12,840 Speaker 2: And while she's had trouble closing some deals in the past, 1339 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 2: one you have made are all pretty good, especially a lot. 1340 01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:18,640 Speaker 1: Of the low key ones, most notably this past year 1341 01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,720 Speaker 1: for Puck. I mean that put put a bow on 1342 01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,360 Speaker 1: just how good the bullpen's been this year. I don't 1343 01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: know what this bullpen would look like without Putt, but it's. 1344 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 2: Been great, and they wouldn't be contributing whatsoever to this team. 1345 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:37,640 Speaker 2: So she's really good at trades like that, and I 1346 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:40,160 Speaker 2: wouldn't be surprised we see something like that. But then again, 1347 01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,439 Speaker 2: it's just it is bleak right now to see who 1348 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:44,000 Speaker 2: actually is going to be a seller. And out of 1349 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,000 Speaker 2: the teams that are confirmed sellers, pretty much the A's 1350 01:02:47,000 --> 01:02:50,440 Speaker 2: and the Royals and the Rockets. There really aren't many 1351 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,520 Speaker 2: sex Nationals out there, the Nationals, and even then they 1352 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 2: don't really have too many guys. 1353 01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:57,440 Speaker 1: Maybe Ken Lario, but I. 1354 01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:03,919 Speaker 2: Sos the Cardinals. Here's my thing about the haven't really 1355 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:08,360 Speaker 2: considered them as best sellers yet is because they have 1356 01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 2: too much talent to like not fully count them out, 1357 01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 2: like they're totally capable of going on ten wins and 1358 01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:20,400 Speaker 2: eleven game streak that kind of stretched, like they just 1359 01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:24,000 Speaker 2: have too much talent and not be able to completely 1360 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:25,040 Speaker 2: rule them out yet. 1361 01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 3: I don't know, do they do they really as a 1362 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:33,080 Speaker 3: whole team offensively on the on the on the position 1363 01:03:33,160 --> 01:03:36,919 Speaker 3: players side, they do. But they're pitching is terrible. They are. 1364 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,720 Speaker 3: They're simply one of the worst collections of pitchers in 1365 01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:44,360 Speaker 3: all of baseball. I don't see any upside whatsoever to 1366 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 3: their pitching staff. They're there, and now they've dug in 1367 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,440 Speaker 3: a deep enough hole thanks to the Reds and the Brewers. 1368 01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:52,600 Speaker 3: Those are two teams that are both eight plus games 1369 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,640 Speaker 3: ahead of them. I don't see them closing an eight 1370 01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 3: game gap on those teams. They just don't have the 1371 01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 3: pitchers to do it unless they really went bold, actually 1372 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 3: went outside of the organization to acquire more starters and 1373 01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:06,800 Speaker 3: use some of their prospect capital to do it. Yeah, 1374 01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 3: I think that's They really pulled themselves back from the 1375 01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 3: edge this weekend, winning these last two games against the Mets. 1376 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:16,600 Speaker 3: That probably keeps them kind of in the mix a 1377 01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:19,040 Speaker 3: little bit longer. But I would expect them to come 1378 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:22,080 Speaker 3: deadline time for some of their major leaguers to be available. 1379 01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:24,200 Speaker 3: I don't I don't see them being going on a 1380 01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:25,480 Speaker 3: hot streak anytime soon. 1381 01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:28,560 Speaker 9: They needed a trade for problem man. They there was 1382 01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:31,560 Speaker 9: a reason why Sam Louis was a heavy suitor for Miami. 1383 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:34,439 Speaker 9: With all the pitching that Miami did have, I can't 1384 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 9: believe they didn't do anything, and it's it's showing how 1385 01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 9: poorly they're they're pitching this year. 1386 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 2: They do have a pretty good farm to choose from 1387 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:42,919 Speaker 2: if they want to buy. 1388 01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:44,440 Speaker 1: But if they do decide this out, they can just 1389 01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:46,680 Speaker 1: add to it and they can bash track the rebuild. 1390 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 1: That's kind of what Cincinnati did. That's kind of what 1391 01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,120 Speaker 1: the Oriols have done. Not to much. 1392 01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 9: God's and I gets Jordan Walker to go get corporate burns. 1393 01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,040 Speaker 1: That would be a massive trade. 1394 01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 2: But that being in NL Central trade and then interdivision 1395 01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 2: trades are going to become more common now that the 1396 01:05:05,240 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 2: schedules changed. But the Cardinal's breweris trade would be kind 1397 01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:11,840 Speaker 2: of crazy. 1398 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:12,880 Speaker 3: I don't I don't know. 1399 01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 1: How I trade. 1400 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 9: Maybe trade for an injured Woodruff as well, I could see, 1401 01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:18,000 Speaker 9: but obviously the Brewers don't think are going in that 1402 01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:18,959 Speaker 9: direction all either. 1403 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:25,040 Speaker 2: Now it's it's a three two three four horse race 1404 01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 2: in the Central I'd say at least three. 1405 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:30,080 Speaker 1: The Cubs kind of aren't completely out of it yet. 1406 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:31,960 Speaker 9: And then right, but I think the Cubs so I 1407 01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:33,280 Speaker 9: think that's a given that they're gonna be. 1408 01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:38,760 Speaker 2: They should, they should at some point of maybe Bellanger 1409 01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:40,800 Speaker 2: being a target for the Marlins if he can get healthy. 1410 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:44,920 Speaker 1: Big if though, they'll probably trade Strowman if he doesn't 1411 01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:45,800 Speaker 1: do this extension. 1412 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:50,120 Speaker 2: But yeah, to your point, you want to package these 1413 01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 2: guys for certain players. 1414 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:56,439 Speaker 1: I mean, any deal that's there for Kim, I think 1415 01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:57,240 Speaker 1: he's gonna take it. 1416 01:05:57,360 --> 01:06:00,520 Speaker 2: The Marlins are probably going to be aggressive, but death 1417 01:06:00,600 --> 01:06:03,880 Speaker 2: can't hurt very very fortunate the Marlins in and trade 1418 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 2: more starting pitching from. 1419 01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:09,440 Speaker 1: Pablo, and I've been an advocate. 1420 01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 2: Of trying to go deal Edward Cabrera the Cincinnati for 1421 01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:14,080 Speaker 2: one of their surplus infielders. 1422 01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:16,400 Speaker 1: That can't happen anymore. I don't even know if Edward's 1423 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,320 Speaker 1: gonna be backed by August first, But uh, of course 1424 01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1425 01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:26,520 Speaker 2: I'm not a medical professional. I'm a journalism major. But 1426 01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:29,840 Speaker 2: with the way some of these to show theirs and 1427 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:35,480 Speaker 2: whatnot have gone, Marlins, if it's a pretty unfortunate injury 1428 01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:39,439 Speaker 2: a lot, and yeah, I wouldn't put pinpoint any sort 1429 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 2: of like time and date on Eddie coming back. 1430 01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:44,400 Speaker 1: I guess we'll learn more tomorrow from whoever took the 1431 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:47,040 Speaker 1: ballpark really quick. 1432 01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:49,800 Speaker 9: To add to what Brian said, just swing of Myers, 1433 01:06:50,200 --> 01:06:52,040 Speaker 9: I think it would be who's the team seriously to 1434 01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 9: just call and see what they have with him before 1435 01:06:54,760 --> 01:06:56,720 Speaker 9: the trade deadline, before they have to really decide whether 1436 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:58,600 Speaker 9: they're selling your bud, Just to see what you've got, 1437 01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 9: because if you can play a little bit for a 1438 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:01,760 Speaker 9: little bit of third, that sort of you know, helps 1439 01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:04,120 Speaker 9: decide what you're gonna go after if you decide to 1440 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:04,600 Speaker 9: be buyers. 1441 01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 1: So I really think, you know, he's a name. 1442 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:08,640 Speaker 9: Even Craig miss reported that he is someone that the 1443 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:10,640 Speaker 9: team is well aware of. How he's performing up a 1444 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:13,680 Speaker 9: triple A hitting nearly five hundred, and he was some 1445 01:07:13,680 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 9: pop as well. So I think I think we could 1446 01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 9: see him get called up before the end of June, 1447 01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:21,040 Speaker 9: maybe just when they see what they got with this kid, 1448 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:22,760 Speaker 9: so that way they don't have to go and get 1449 01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:25,360 Speaker 9: something else and trade more pieces for another play that 1450 01:07:25,360 --> 01:07:27,240 Speaker 9: maybe mights can fill a whole kid. 1451 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 1: He's a fun dude, like super super fun. I talked 1452 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 1: to him in spring training, Isaac, and. 1453 01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:34,680 Speaker 5: He was like, Dude, this weather is making all the 1454 01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:38,120 Speaker 5: difference for me, Like, I think he's really really comfortable 1455 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:40,720 Speaker 5: in the warmer weather rather than the cold of Detroit, 1456 01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:43,040 Speaker 5: which is where he came from in the Rule five. 1457 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 5: So yeah, I think I think that's making a bit 1458 01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 5: of difference for him personally, that he likes being downe 1459 01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,240 Speaker 5: and he likes hitting in these warmer climates and it's 1460 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,480 Speaker 5: getting it done man, like you said. And he could 1461 01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 5: play all over the place, like first, third corner outfield. 1462 01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 5: Hasn't played third base a ton. He's played it, but 1463 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:06,840 Speaker 5: not really a ton. My My like prospective analysts analysts 1464 01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 5: analysis analysis of him is that he probably fits best 1465 01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:15,280 Speaker 5: as a corner outfielder, is is what I would say. 1466 01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:19,160 Speaker 5: But He definitely has the ability to play and is 1467 01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:22,040 Speaker 5: doing it now because a Maya just got called up, 1468 01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 5: so now he's at third base, so they didn't call 1469 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:26,759 Speaker 5: it if anybody else to triple A played third base today, 1470 01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 5: so he can definitely fill in in these spots where 1471 01:08:29,280 --> 01:08:32,559 Speaker 5: he's needed. But he's interesting, like you said, definitely has 1472 01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:34,800 Speaker 5: some pop, can hit for a decent average, can get 1473 01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 5: on base. I like him, man, And yeah, I don't 1474 01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,360 Speaker 5: disagree with you that he's not one of those those 1475 01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:42,120 Speaker 5: guys that I mentioned before that's kind of just pushing 1476 01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,680 Speaker 5: his way up and why not see what you have 1477 01:08:45,439 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 5: so that you know this is the guy that you're 1478 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:50,000 Speaker 5: going to keep as basis of your team or a 1479 01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:52,200 Speaker 5: guy that you're gonna use his trade and trade value. 1480 01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 5: So there's there's definitely a room room for him to 1481 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:56,519 Speaker 5: come up if they can make room for him. That 1482 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,360 Speaker 5: the trick is, how do you get him up here 1483 01:08:59,360 --> 01:09:00,880 Speaker 5: and how do you really a full look at him 1484 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:03,080 Speaker 5: with the team succeeding as that he's doing right now. 1485 01:09:03,160 --> 01:09:05,600 Speaker 5: So probably coming for later in the year, but I 1486 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:09,400 Speaker 5: don't disagree with you. Come August September, it's definitely possible. 1487 01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I should add a note on Dane Meyers and 1488 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:16,880 Speaker 3: his contractual status. He's a twenty seventeen draft pick, and 1489 01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:18,960 Speaker 3: that means at the end of this year he's going 1490 01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:21,639 Speaker 3: to be able to elect minor league free agency if 1491 01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:24,639 Speaker 3: he's not on the forty man roster. So it's kind 1492 01:09:24,640 --> 01:09:27,720 Speaker 3: of like a rule five pick situation. We saw the 1493 01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:30,400 Speaker 3: Marlins last year. Sean Reynolds was in this situation where 1494 01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:31,840 Speaker 3: they did let the whole year go by and then 1495 01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 3: they wait till after the year to put him on. 1496 01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:35,920 Speaker 3: But I'd say in more of those cases they do, 1497 01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:38,240 Speaker 3: it's more incentivized for you to actually, you know, just 1498 01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:41,240 Speaker 3: call them up during the season, especially if they're performing 1499 01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:43,960 Speaker 3: exceptionally well the way that he is. He is the 1500 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 3: top performing hitter in this organization. And he plays a 1501 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 3: bunch of different positions, even though he doesn't play them, 1502 01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:53,960 Speaker 3: not all them super fluently. To this point, as somebody 1503 01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:58,080 Speaker 3: that very recently was a pitcher, not a position player exactly. Yeah, 1504 01:09:58,080 --> 01:09:59,719 Speaker 3: but he is like to know that. 1505 01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: He was as you just said, he liked to know 1506 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 1: that he was just pitching. 1507 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:04,080 Speaker 5: I think he's only been a batter or a position 1508 01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:05,280 Speaker 5: player since twenty twenty one. 1509 01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 1: I think if I'm not mistaken. 1510 01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:10,639 Speaker 5: So he was formerly pitching and now he's playing all 1511 01:10:10,680 --> 01:10:13,000 Speaker 5: these different positions. I guess, probably just to see what 1512 01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:14,799 Speaker 5: works out the best for him. But he was previously 1513 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:16,839 Speaker 5: a pitcher, so obviously you know, he has a decent arm. 1514 01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:20,360 Speaker 5: So yeah, like I said, I think I would I 1515 01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:22,479 Speaker 5: would be most comfortable in calling him like a corner 1516 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:24,760 Speaker 5: outfielder long term, but we'll see. 1517 01:10:24,760 --> 01:10:26,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he can hold down on their positions. It's 1518 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:27,200 Speaker 1: possible for him to do it. 1519 01:10:27,240 --> 01:10:30,880 Speaker 5: So definitely an athlete, definitely good, Definitely hitting the. 1520 01:10:30,800 --> 01:10:32,519 Speaker 1: Ball hard as Isaac shed. 1521 01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:35,519 Speaker 5: So yeah, and like I said, what was it was 1522 01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:37,519 Speaker 5: minor league free or minor league rule five, So I 1523 01:10:37,520 --> 01:10:39,479 Speaker 5: guess that I read there was minor league rule five and. 1524 01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 1: Not major league. That's why he's not with the Marlins. 1525 01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:43,160 Speaker 1: But minor league rule five. 1526 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 5: They get the guy for basically nothing, and he's the 1527 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:48,040 Speaker 5: best guy in the organization probably right now as a hitter. 1528 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 1: That's pretty exciting. 1529 01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:53,080 Speaker 9: Regarding regarding the constructual situation with him. If you were 1530 01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:54,920 Speaker 9: to make his major league debut at some point, what 1531 01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:57,960 Speaker 9: does that do for him? You know, he's obviously still 1532 01:10:57,960 --> 01:10:58,959 Speaker 9: not a minor league creagent. 1533 01:10:58,760 --> 01:10:59,320 Speaker 1: Out for that, right. 1534 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:02,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, then just becomes a normal dude. If he's if 1535 01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:04,200 Speaker 3: he's pulled up and he's put on the forty man roster, 1536 01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:06,240 Speaker 3: then he's on the forty man. So then he has 1537 01:11:06,600 --> 01:11:09,680 Speaker 3: all his option years. Yeah, so then he's just part of. 1538 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:12,200 Speaker 1: The six more years of club control of this player. 1539 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:14,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, they just they just have to they just 1540 01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:16,479 Speaker 3: have to pay him more money of course, and they'd 1541 01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:18,320 Speaker 3: have to keep him all on the forty man moving 1542 01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:20,679 Speaker 3: forward if they still value him at this point. 1543 01:11:20,760 --> 01:11:25,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, And that's that's something that's not pointed out, is yes, 1544 01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 5: we all talk about Kim and what she did with 1545 01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 5: with with the major league roster. 1546 01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:31,599 Speaker 1: Look at what they're doing with this, Like they get 1547 01:11:31,600 --> 01:11:32,120 Speaker 1: this guy. 1548 01:11:31,960 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 5: For zero for nothing, there's zero risk, there's nothing to 1549 01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:38,040 Speaker 5: really lose by claiming this guy from Detroit in minor 1550 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 5: league rule five and now he's the best bad in 1551 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:43,519 Speaker 5: your organization. And here we are in June talking about 1552 01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:45,719 Speaker 5: him possibly making a major league debut. 1553 01:11:46,160 --> 01:11:47,160 Speaker 1: It's it's it's great. 1554 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,720 Speaker 5: Like this offseason was was fabulous with a couple of 1555 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:54,160 Speaker 5: stragglers aside, talk about s talk about playto yes, we 1556 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:57,599 Speaker 5: talked about that before, but overall this offseason was was 1557 01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 5: very good. 1558 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:00,400 Speaker 1: For Kim, and I think she's learned a lot. If 1559 01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:01,680 Speaker 1: you're Bruce Sherman. 1560 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:04,960 Speaker 9: You just say, hey, listen, I'll let you spend some money, 1561 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:07,519 Speaker 9: but only for trades. You know, all of you're taking 1562 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:10,080 Speaker 9: on money from another team in the trade because holy crap, 1563 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 9: now one free agent has really. 1564 01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 1: Worked, it's amazing, not one. So that's the I would do. 1565 01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:17,880 Speaker 9: Hum, Bruce, listen, Kim, here's your money, here's your budget, 1566 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:18,840 Speaker 9: but only on trades. 1567 01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:22,160 Speaker 1: You only take on money. That's trades and trades and 1568 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 1: and and my rag weak for agents, all those you're 1569 01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:29,200 Speaker 1: dest agents. Yeah, we're bidden. 1570 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:33,439 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, different kind of money ball there. 1571 01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:36,680 Speaker 1: But Bride, is that all you have for us? You 1572 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:39,880 Speaker 1: guys still hear me? Yeah? Yeah, the last thing I 1573 01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:42,360 Speaker 1: have is yeah. So basically like this is it. I 1574 01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:44,560 Speaker 1: would say, like, I think we should. 1575 01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:46,680 Speaker 7: You know, obviously celebrate we're ten games over, but not 1576 01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:49,120 Speaker 7: like the schedule is really gonna shift and uh in 1577 01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:51,720 Speaker 7: a way that probably is in the best favor. But 1578 01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:53,360 Speaker 7: I think we're gonna learn a lot from this team here. 1579 01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:55,680 Speaker 7: The next you know, next week's heading into the All 1580 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:59,320 Speaker 7: Star break. You know, the picturing starting picture is gonna 1581 01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:01,960 Speaker 7: be a concern, but I think we're gonna learn a lot, 1582 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:04,080 Speaker 7: and I'm pretty happy with the decision that she has made, 1583 01:13:04,080 --> 01:13:06,200 Speaker 7: like this season when it comes to like guys that 1584 01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:08,800 Speaker 7: she has caught up, whereas like last year she was 1585 01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:11,680 Speaker 7: calling up guys like Willie Zastadillo and like Eric Gonzalez 1586 01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:13,800 Speaker 7: and you know, other guys that were doing good. So 1587 01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:17,559 Speaker 7: I feel like she's adjusted well herself when it comes 1588 01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:19,439 Speaker 7: to up the guys that she's caught up that you 1589 01:13:19,439 --> 01:13:21,519 Speaker 7: know when we need enforce them. So we're gonna we're 1590 01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:23,000 Speaker 7: gonna learn it a lot here next few weeks. So 1591 01:13:23,560 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 7: that's all I happen. 1592 01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:25,040 Speaker 1: Thank you, guys. 1593 01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:28,639 Speaker 5: Yeah, right, Just as a closing on this, you're right 1594 01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,360 Speaker 5: the fact that there's new names, right, that it's not 1595 01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:35,960 Speaker 5: the same recycled names, especially except for maybe Smelter, who 1596 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:38,400 Speaker 5: we expect to be up here shortly. Except for maybe him, 1597 01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:41,080 Speaker 5: it's different names. Do you see Amaya coming up, You're 1598 01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:43,040 Speaker 5: seeing Yuri come up, like you're you're seeing. 1599 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:44,720 Speaker 1: New names come up. To see what they have. 1600 01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 5: And I hope what Isaac said comes to fruition here, 1601 01:13:48,040 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 5: not right now, but probably in the future. See what 1602 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:52,559 Speaker 5: these guys got they're pushing their way. Let's see what 1603 01:13:52,560 --> 01:13:55,080 Speaker 5: they got. You can point to Will Banfield. He's another one, 1604 01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:55,719 Speaker 5: Austin Allen. 1605 01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:58,840 Speaker 1: That's a catcher. Like give these guys air shot, like 1606 01:13:59,040 --> 01:13:59,840 Speaker 1: to see what they. 1607 01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:01,840 Speaker 5: Have, right and if they don't have anything, then they 1608 01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:03,920 Speaker 5: don't have it, and that's fine, but at least you'll 1609 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:06,000 Speaker 5: see it and you're not just calling up the same guys, 1610 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 5: the same, the same, the same names, over and over again. 1611 01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:11,360 Speaker 5: They were doing it with Layman Diaz, they were putting 1612 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:12,759 Speaker 5: them on the bench. He did it with Jose Devers. 1613 01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:14,720 Speaker 5: They put them on the bench. They're calling guys up 1614 01:14:14,720 --> 01:14:16,360 Speaker 5: and they're contributing in meaningful spots. 1615 01:14:16,400 --> 01:14:18,599 Speaker 1: And that's a huge difference from last year to this year. 1616 01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:19,640 Speaker 1: So there's a good point. Yea. 1617 01:14:19,680 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 9: I had a question for either Alex Carver or Eli 1618 01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:25,000 Speaker 9: Sussman regarding my I think they're one injury away, one 1619 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:27,160 Speaker 9: infield injury away, another security type injury, and I think 1620 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:30,720 Speaker 9: Dave myerst the should get the call up a Lady Banfield? 1621 01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:34,320 Speaker 1: Is this real? Should Marlins fans genuinely be excited? 1622 01:14:34,400 --> 01:14:37,080 Speaker 9: Is this I haven't watched too much of Double A, admittedly, 1623 01:14:37,160 --> 01:14:39,320 Speaker 9: but is this really? You go so long struggling in 1624 01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:41,439 Speaker 9: the professional level from twenty eighty not he has never 1625 01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,600 Speaker 9: hit a lick it set a few grand slams that 1626 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:44,719 Speaker 9: people love to promote. 1627 01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:48,599 Speaker 5: Is this legit, I'll go first and then I'll give 1628 01:14:48,600 --> 01:14:50,920 Speaker 5: it to Eli. I think it is Isaac, and I'll 1629 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:52,920 Speaker 5: tell you why. Is because of the difference that you 1630 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:54,800 Speaker 5: see and I pointed out pointed this out on Twitter 1631 01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:57,479 Speaker 5: not too long ago. I think it is because of 1632 01:14:57,560 --> 01:14:59,800 Speaker 5: the difference in his approach and how simple he's being 1633 01:14:59,840 --> 01:15:02,120 Speaker 5: a the plate where his arms are much lower in 1634 01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:03,920 Speaker 5: the zone. He's not just swinging for power, He's not 1635 01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:05,360 Speaker 5: trying to go over the fence every single time he 1636 01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:08,000 Speaker 5: swings at a pitch, and I think he's viewing pitching better. 1637 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,559 Speaker 5: He doesn't have his toe tap anymore. Like the setup 1638 01:15:10,600 --> 01:15:13,240 Speaker 5: just looks so much simpler, so much better, so much easier. 1639 01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:16,000 Speaker 5: And I think that's a that's a mean and a 1640 01:15:16,160 --> 01:15:19,280 Speaker 5: huge difference for what he's doing offensively, and then you 1641 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:20,439 Speaker 5: know what he can do on defense. 1642 01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:21,760 Speaker 1: So I think it is legitimate. 1643 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,040 Speaker 5: I think he's definitely somebody who needs to be looked 1644 01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:28,240 Speaker 5: at seriously. Obviously you're gonna talk about Macintosh to who's 1645 01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:30,800 Speaker 5: coming back. Literally, guy's been on a rehab assignment for 1646 01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:32,880 Speaker 5: like eleven games, which to me is a little crazy, 1647 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 5: but he'll be back soon. So there's there's catchers, and 1648 01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:37,720 Speaker 5: then you talk about Alan who has been pretty good 1649 01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:40,800 Speaker 5: into play. But I like Banfield, man, I really like 1650 01:15:40,840 --> 01:15:41,479 Speaker 5: the look of this guy. 1651 01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:42,599 Speaker 1: Is here for the first time. 1652 01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:44,599 Speaker 5: I can say that I'd like the look of Will 1653 01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:47,000 Speaker 5: Bamfield out the plate because of how simplistic that he is. 1654 01:15:47,200 --> 01:15:48,840 Speaker 1: So I think it's legitimate, and I think. 1655 01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:51,439 Speaker 5: His improvement is finally showing. I mean, this is a 1656 01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:53,479 Speaker 5: prep catcher. It took him a while to show it. Yeah, 1657 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:56,800 Speaker 5: but I think I think with with what he's shown 1658 01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:58,760 Speaker 5: at the plate this year and the changes that he's made, 1659 01:15:58,960 --> 01:16:00,879 Speaker 5: I think that this is actually legitimate. 1660 01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:05,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm pretty close to the other end of the spectrum. 1661 01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:08,599 Speaker 3: There no thank you four walks in forty eight games 1662 01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:09,880 Speaker 3: for Will Banfield. 1663 01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:12,479 Speaker 1: I don't know what, but I mean. 1664 01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:18,760 Speaker 3: With I would like to I'll keep it short. I'd 1665 01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:21,320 Speaker 3: like to see him moved up to Triple A, to 1666 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:24,720 Speaker 3: face different pictures, to go in a different environment and 1667 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:28,320 Speaker 3: see if he continues to The overall offensive numbers are 1668 01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:31,920 Speaker 3: pretty decent, especially relative to his career norms, and for 1669 01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:35,000 Speaker 3: the catcher position. I just have to say, moved up 1670 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 3: to triple at different surroundings and see if he continues 1671 01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:41,679 Speaker 3: to have the same overall performance. Even so, I'm I'm 1672 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:44,160 Speaker 3: super skeptical about him being able to hit in the 1673 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 3: big leagues. I think I don't think he's going to 1674 01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:50,400 Speaker 3: be able to simply put put the bat on the 1675 01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:54,720 Speaker 3: ball against big league pitching. So yeah, so that I'll 1676 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:56,640 Speaker 3: keep it simple of that, moving up to Triple A, 1677 01:16:57,120 --> 01:17:02,120 Speaker 3: bring back Paul p. Mack to Pensacola for a little bit, 1678 01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:09,400 Speaker 3: and then we'll figure it out. It's yeah, not super 1679 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:10,519 Speaker 3: duper excited, right. 1680 01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:12,880 Speaker 5: I think that there's definitely variant and yesterday doesn't walk 1681 01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:16,760 Speaker 5: a lot. Fine, you're right, You're absolutely right. But what 1682 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,519 Speaker 5: I would say is that, you know, even if this 1683 01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 5: guy hits two thirty in the big leagues, you take 1684 01:17:22,320 --> 01:17:25,200 Speaker 5: it because of how good he is on defense, You 1685 01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:27,720 Speaker 5: take it. You take that, and I don't think that 1686 01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:31,719 Speaker 5: far away. But like I said, he's shown a lot 1687 01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 5: of improvement, and I still don't think it's a finished product. 1688 01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:36,760 Speaker 5: It's like, I really don't would be comfortable calling him 1689 01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:39,760 Speaker 5: up right now. No, But what I would say is 1690 01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:41,519 Speaker 5: I don't think that this guy is far away from 1691 01:17:41,520 --> 01:17:44,200 Speaker 5: contributing if he can continue to grow into this new 1692 01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:46,840 Speaker 5: stands as new approach. I think he's pretty good man. 1693 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,200 Speaker 5: And I really don't I don't understand the call up 1694 01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 5: to Triple A. I mean yet, I know you face 1695 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 5: off against maybe some former major league talent, but that's 1696 01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:57,000 Speaker 5: probably fringe major league talent and the Marlins. And this 1697 01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:58,920 Speaker 5: is the main topic for me when I'm looking at 1698 01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:00,800 Speaker 5: things right now, and I'll be sure on this, but 1699 01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:03,400 Speaker 5: they don't seem to think that Triple A is a 1700 01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,040 Speaker 5: necessary step because look at the roster that's in Triple A. 1701 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:09,080 Speaker 5: It's it's no way like there. There's there's very few 1702 01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:12,360 Speaker 5: of their top organizational guys in Triple A. And I 1703 01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:13,240 Speaker 5: think that's for a reason. 1704 01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:16,439 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's an industry thing, I believe. You know, even 1705 01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:18,760 Speaker 9: before this Arnser group, they never really you know, the 1706 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:20,760 Speaker 9: new oralanstephyrs. They never really had some of the top 1707 01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:22,880 Speaker 9: of the way. 1708 01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:23,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, but. 1709 01:18:25,160 --> 01:18:27,240 Speaker 5: At least in those situations it was farther away, Like 1710 01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:30,400 Speaker 5: New Orleans was farther away, Albuquerque was even farther away. 1711 01:18:30,600 --> 01:18:33,120 Speaker 1: They're in Jacksonville, Florida. Like I mean, I've talked to 1712 01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:33,799 Speaker 1: people about. 1713 01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 5: This, like, why why do they not use triple A 1714 01:18:36,280 --> 01:18:38,680 Speaker 5: as the most advanced level. They don't, they use double it. 1715 01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,000 Speaker 5: They're they're using double A as the most advanced level 1716 01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:41,280 Speaker 5: in the. 1717 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:46,400 Speaker 1: System because you know, the biggest jump. Yeah, it's the 1718 01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:47,280 Speaker 1: biggest jump. Yeah. 1719 01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:49,639 Speaker 5: But at triple A, like I said, you have guys 1720 01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:51,200 Speaker 5: that have been in the Major league, You have guys 1721 01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:52,000 Speaker 5: that have experience in. 1722 01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:52,599 Speaker 1: The major leagues. 1723 01:18:53,200 --> 01:18:55,080 Speaker 5: You get a lot of rehabbers there, so I mean 1724 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 5: you kind of get a better taste of, maybe a 1725 01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:58,519 Speaker 5: little bit of a better taste of what a guy's 1726 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:01,080 Speaker 5: gonna do in mide. Well, the Marlins don't do it 1727 01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:01,360 Speaker 5: that way. 1728 01:19:01,640 --> 01:19:02,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that's here. 1729 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:05,879 Speaker 9: Regarding Banfield's late discipline, I guess lack of walks because 1730 01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:07,519 Speaker 9: you would think that in triple A it would be 1731 01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:10,760 Speaker 9: even less. He'd walk even less at Triple A, much 1732 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 9: less the major league. So I think I'm sure you 1733 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:15,240 Speaker 9: can agree with me that it would be a long 1734 01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,679 Speaker 9: shot that he would be able to hit major league 1735 01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 9: pitching it I think hitting two thirty, so it's a 1736 01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:21,040 Speaker 9: pipe tream for him to hit. 1737 01:19:21,360 --> 01:19:23,519 Speaker 1: As of right now, unless say I. 1738 01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:26,360 Speaker 5: Would disagree with that thirty. He continue Stuart right now, ye, 1739 01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:28,920 Speaker 5: right now, if you if you would call him up 1740 01:19:28,920 --> 01:19:30,800 Speaker 5: to the Marlins right now, yes, I would agree with you, 1741 01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:34,080 Speaker 5: would hit one thirty well, yes, right now, I agree 1742 01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:35,840 Speaker 5: with you, which is now, right now is. 1743 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:38,120 Speaker 1: Not the right time. But I think his overall projection, 1744 01:19:38,520 --> 01:19:39,200 Speaker 1: he took you back. 1745 01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:41,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, he's still young when he turned eighteen and when 1746 01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:43,479 Speaker 9: they drafted him, so I was, yeah. 1747 01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:45,439 Speaker 1: Of course he's a high schooler. So yeah, is he 1748 01:19:45,479 --> 01:19:47,800 Speaker 1: twenty one, twenty two something like that, twenty I assume 1749 01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 1: twenty two. 1750 01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 9: If you graduated two years after me, twenty two, right, 1751 01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:53,640 Speaker 9: So yeah, I mean still there's a possibility. 1752 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:57,639 Speaker 5: I'm really encouraged by the improvement. I think he could 1753 01:19:57,640 --> 01:20:00,360 Speaker 5: get there eventually. Right now is the wrong time, Yes, 1754 01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:02,920 Speaker 5: I would agree with that, But if he keeps shutting 1755 01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:04,360 Speaker 5: with you now, I think there's a. 1756 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:07,000 Speaker 1: Pass for that to actually happen. For it, Jeff mathis 1757 01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:08,599 Speaker 1: pipe projection best case scenario. 1758 01:20:09,680 --> 01:20:12,439 Speaker 5: I think it's over that, but that's me Elil Party disagree, 1759 01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:13,400 Speaker 5: but I think it's better than that. 1760 01:20:15,880 --> 01:20:18,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he's a great to vendor. I wouldn't 1761 01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:24,320 Speaker 3: say he's necessarily Jeff matthis level of all encompassing floor 1762 01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:27,200 Speaker 3: raising for all your pitchers. I think. I think in 1763 01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:29,519 Speaker 3: some ways Jeff Mathis would be a little bit of 1764 01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:35,519 Speaker 3: a reach just because of how a special Mathis was defensively. Yeah, anyway, 1765 01:20:35,720 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 3: I think we can all agree that for this season, 1766 01:20:38,800 --> 01:20:40,680 Speaker 3: he's not going to be a factor here and for 1767 01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:44,520 Speaker 3: this seam. If Jacob Stallings does not continue to gradually 1768 01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:46,760 Speaker 3: improve as they lead up to the trade deadline, it's 1769 01:20:46,800 --> 01:20:49,920 Speaker 3: going to be a fascinating decision to make. Because Fortes 1770 01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:53,960 Speaker 3: thankfully is putting together consistent play for a while now, 1771 01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:56,920 Speaker 3: but they do not have They don't really have a 1772 01:20:56,960 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 3: good quality backup, and they certainly don't have a third 1773 01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:02,680 Speaker 3: stringer at the catchup position that you feel confident in 1774 01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 3: helping you win games down the stretch of this season. 1775 01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:11,639 Speaker 1: I agree. So we'll bring in Ryan here, super subscriber, perk. 1776 01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:16,080 Speaker 1: We get him in, loading him in. He's always got 1777 01:21:16,080 --> 01:21:19,120 Speaker 1: some good questions. So Ryan, how are you and what's 1778 01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:21,679 Speaker 1: your question? What's going on? Guys? 1779 01:21:21,760 --> 01:21:26,000 Speaker 4: So unfortunately, I was very busy this weekend. I'm in 1780 01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:29,840 Speaker 4: Connecticut and I wasn't able to really watch any of 1781 01:21:29,880 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 4: the three games. I was at the Mets game on 1782 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:36,320 Speaker 4: Friday night, and I missed pretty much the entire Marlins game, 1783 01:21:36,479 --> 01:21:39,080 Speaker 4: and I got a little glimpse of the game on Saturday, 1784 01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:42,120 Speaker 4: and then I didn't watch any of the game today. 1785 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,200 Speaker 4: So I just wanted to ask you guys, what's the 1786 01:21:45,200 --> 01:21:49,200 Speaker 4: biggest takeaway from this series against the Nationals that you 1787 01:21:49,200 --> 01:21:51,479 Speaker 4: wouldn't really be able to see from just looking at 1788 01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:52,120 Speaker 4: box scores. 1789 01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:02,240 Speaker 1: It's a good question. Yeah, I don't know there's one 1790 01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:04,679 Speaker 1: main takeaway. I feel like there's a lot of little ones. 1791 01:22:04,920 --> 01:22:07,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, Unfortunately, I would say the bigger takeaway is that 1792 01:22:07,680 --> 01:22:11,080 Speaker 3: the Nats are who we thought they were, or it 1793 01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:14,200 Speaker 3: seemed that it was kind of interesting early in the year, 1794 01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:16,519 Speaker 3: the first quarter of the season. I felt like a 1795 01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:18,840 Speaker 3: lot of these games they kind of pissed away in 1796 01:22:18,880 --> 01:22:22,719 Speaker 3: this series finale. Working backwards Patrick Corbin, he was lucky 1797 01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:24,760 Speaker 3: to only give up four runs in this one. He 1798 01:22:24,920 --> 01:22:29,000 Speaker 3: was so eminently hittable in this game, constantly getting behind 1799 01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:31,120 Speaker 3: him in the count, allowing a lot of line drives. 1800 01:22:31,439 --> 01:22:33,639 Speaker 3: I think just about any team could have beaten Corbin 1801 01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:39,519 Speaker 3: in this series finale. Going backwards to yesterday's game, the 1802 01:22:39,600 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 3: defense was pretty sloppy from the Gnats in there, allowing 1803 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:46,800 Speaker 3: the Marlins to get more than they probably should have 1804 01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:49,479 Speaker 3: in that situation. The Marlins were just one for nine 1805 01:22:49,479 --> 01:22:52,320 Speaker 3: with runners in scoring position, and yet put up those 1806 01:22:52,560 --> 01:22:55,240 Speaker 3: five runs. And I'm not entirely sure how there were 1807 01:22:55,280 --> 01:22:58,719 Speaker 3: some really bad pitch execution by the Nats. Chad Cool 1808 01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:01,840 Speaker 3: he walked in a free runner with the bases loaded, 1809 01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:03,559 Speaker 3: and then he led an additional run score on a 1810 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 3: wild pitch, and then he yeah, even on on Friday, 1811 01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:10,920 Speaker 3: more the same that. Even though you want to be 1812 01:23:11,360 --> 01:23:14,320 Speaker 3: something flattering the Marlins, I'd say the bigger takeaway from 1813 01:23:14,320 --> 01:23:17,280 Speaker 3: the series was how non competitive the Nats are that 1814 01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:19,320 Speaker 3: I think soon enough you're gonna be talking about them 1815 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:22,320 Speaker 3: in a similar vein as the Royals and the Athletics. 1816 01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:27,040 Speaker 3: Despite their record being far superior at this moment, they 1817 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:31,360 Speaker 3: just are really struggling from a pitch execution standpoint and 1818 01:23:31,400 --> 01:23:33,960 Speaker 3: from a defensive standpoint. And they don't even have like 1819 01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:37,400 Speaker 3: a single hitter in their lineup that you really fear 1820 01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 3: on a consistent basis. It's it's a pretty bad team. 1821 01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:45,040 Speaker 2: Kevin would tell you, candell Ario, he would fear. He 1822 01:23:45,080 --> 01:23:50,559 Speaker 2: would try and tell you that just a joke, But 1823 01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:54,320 Speaker 2: I mean, Lozarda looked good on the road for the first. 1824 01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:57,400 Speaker 1: Time in quite some time. Today he might be all 1825 01:23:57,600 --> 01:23:58,639 Speaker 1: deepot part merchant. 1826 01:23:59,040 --> 01:24:02,160 Speaker 2: We'll see he does get start they get to Pittsburgh, 1827 01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:04,479 Speaker 2: so it'll be interesting to see what he does when 1828 01:24:04,479 --> 01:24:07,840 Speaker 2: he comes back home. But this weekend, and you know, 1829 01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:12,880 Speaker 2: he bracts some more good stuff. I just think it's 1830 01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:15,760 Speaker 2: about stepping up. How are you going to step up? 1831 01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:18,759 Speaker 2: Because were La Marlins down in every single game this weekend? 1832 01:24:18,840 --> 01:24:19,559 Speaker 1: Or was it just two? 1833 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:23,679 Speaker 3: They weren't down in the sandy start. They got ahead, 1834 01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:25,519 Speaker 3: and they gave the lead back, and got ahead and 1835 01:24:25,560 --> 01:24:28,439 Speaker 3: gave the lean back, but they never trailed in that one. 1836 01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:31,320 Speaker 1: You know, you don't think I don't know. 1837 01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:32,760 Speaker 9: If you mentioned it, you don't think Fortees was a 1838 01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 9: big takeaway from this series, just you know, putting the 1839 01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:38,120 Speaker 9: ball and play and everything. I know it's against a 1840 01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:41,280 Speaker 9: Nationals pitching stuff that was just bad. But still that 1841 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 9: was nice to see. 1842 01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:45,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well he looked good against Corbyn, as a 1843 01:24:45,160 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 3: lot of guys do hitting against Patrick Corbyn. Yeah, that 1844 01:24:49,400 --> 01:24:53,000 Speaker 3: was fine, that's fine. We've already we've seen that from him. 1845 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 3: I'm yeah, I'm generally pretty excited about Fortes overall. He 1846 01:24:57,360 --> 01:24:59,240 Speaker 3: just he needs some help at that position on the 1847 01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:00,240 Speaker 3: days that he's not gonna. 1848 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:04,519 Speaker 2: I think one of my favorite takeaways from this series is, 1849 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:05,479 Speaker 2: I think, God, this. 1850 01:25:05,560 --> 01:25:06,360 Speaker 1: Road trip is over. 1851 01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:08,720 Speaker 2: I'm glad the Marlins are back, and hold, that was 1852 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 2: a long road trip. I feel like I haven't watched 1853 01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:13,760 Speaker 2: the game at wendiebo Park in like a month. That 1854 01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:16,559 Speaker 2: was a super long road trip, and now games will 1855 01:25:16,560 --> 01:25:17,679 Speaker 2: be back at normal times. 1856 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean that Seattle series was a drag, and I 1857 01:25:19,560 --> 01:25:19,960 Speaker 1: guess it. 1858 01:25:19,960 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 2: Wasn't bad this weekend since DC was East Coast, but 1859 01:25:23,439 --> 01:25:25,599 Speaker 2: three time zones, three series. 1860 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:27,479 Speaker 1: I mean that that was quite the road trip for 1861 01:25:27,800 --> 01:25:30,679 Speaker 1: the Marlins. Definitely glad they're going to be back. 1862 01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:39,120 Speaker 4: Question No, I don't have any other questions, but thanks 1863 01:25:39,160 --> 01:25:42,200 Speaker 4: for letting me on, and anyone listening make sure to 1864 01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:44,760 Speaker 4: go become a fish on for super subscriber. 1865 01:25:44,880 --> 01:25:47,519 Speaker 2: That's right, That is right, that's our guy right there. 1866 01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:49,960 Speaker 2: Than'd be very much right, And you gotta listen to 1867 01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:54,439 Speaker 2: the man. You gotta become a super subscriber. I see 1868 01:25:54,479 --> 01:25:57,400 Speaker 2: Kevin out there. I'm I'm gonna give him a speak. 1869 01:25:57,720 --> 01:25:59,040 Speaker 1: I was just now. 1870 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:02,840 Speaker 2: Looking through the reply saw one of Devin's suggestions. It 1871 01:26:02,880 --> 01:26:07,759 Speaker 2: was kind of like a Kevin esque suggestion that Wilson 1872 01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:09,920 Speaker 2: well May well man, I don't know how you say 1873 01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:11,639 Speaker 2: his name, just because I don't like to talk about 1874 01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:14,120 Speaker 2: the guy because he sucks. He just got to be 1875 01:26:14,160 --> 01:26:19,760 Speaker 2: a fad by the Rockies, the Nelson Lamette thank you. 1876 01:26:20,080 --> 01:26:22,360 Speaker 2: I have a hard time pronouncing stuff, which is probably 1877 01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:24,280 Speaker 2: bad for someone who wants to go in the broadcasting. 1878 01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:28,599 Speaker 1: But he's been terrible this year. And Devin asked Marlin's 1879 01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:31,400 Speaker 1: taking a flyer on him. No, absolutely not. No. I 1880 01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:34,560 Speaker 1: mean I know this is kind of silly, but I 1881 01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:35,080 Speaker 1: looked at. 1882 01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:37,120 Speaker 2: His numbers in the fantasy app the other day. He 1883 01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:39,519 Speaker 2: has negative points every start. I mean that's enough to 1884 01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:42,240 Speaker 2: be this guy's a negative asset. I the Marlins should 1885 01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:44,680 Speaker 2: definitely not take a flyer on. And Kevin, I want 1886 01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:46,960 Speaker 2: to pick on you. I was a very Kevin suggestion 1887 01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:48,800 Speaker 2: they should not take a flyer off. 1888 01:26:49,280 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 3: Just generally in years past, when somebody got DFA as 1889 01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:55,360 Speaker 3: a Marlins fan, you would point to them and say, 1890 01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:58,040 Speaker 3: maybe he's somebody who could try out. He's got some 1891 01:26:58,120 --> 01:27:00,560 Speaker 3: interesting aspects to it. But this team is better. This 1892 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:03,360 Speaker 3: team is better than they've been in these several years. 1893 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:06,880 Speaker 3: If somebody is getting cut by another team. They are 1894 01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:10,599 Speaker 3: probably not good enough to help the Marlins immediately at 1895 01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:14,559 Speaker 3: the major league level right now, because the Marlins themselves 1896 01:27:14,640 --> 01:27:17,280 Speaker 3: are better than most other major league teams. I think 1897 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:19,640 Speaker 3: it's really that simple. It's a well rounded team as 1898 01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:23,400 Speaker 3: well as we know. You know, the one glaring deficiency 1899 01:27:23,439 --> 01:27:26,320 Speaker 3: at this exact moment is their rotation. But those are 1900 01:27:26,320 --> 01:27:28,240 Speaker 3: also the type of players that are least likely to 1901 01:27:28,360 --> 01:27:31,320 Speaker 3: get cut by a team. If you're like a stretch 1902 01:27:31,360 --> 01:27:33,200 Speaker 3: out as a starting pitcher, you have to be really 1903 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:38,200 Speaker 3: awful to get simply dfade at any point, and Lamett 1904 01:27:38,280 --> 01:27:40,240 Speaker 3: kind of falls into that category where he had been 1905 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:42,960 Speaker 3: just truly unusable for a team in the Rockies that 1906 01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:46,880 Speaker 3: was desperate itself for starting pitching. This is not a 1907 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:50,160 Speaker 3: team that's going to be making many DFA claims at 1908 01:27:50,200 --> 01:27:54,720 Speaker 3: all this year because this team is simply has more 1909 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:58,519 Speaker 3: talents than most of those other teams. I think people 1910 01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 3: need to get used to that thinking, because the old 1911 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:04,080 Speaker 3: way of thinking, the rebuilding Marlin's way of thinking is 1912 01:28:04,160 --> 01:28:08,240 Speaker 3: that the waiver wire is an interesting place. Not anymore. 1913 01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:14,360 Speaker 3: That's no, They've risen above that dumpster diving mentality, in 1914 01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:15,800 Speaker 3: my opinion, I. 1915 01:28:15,840 --> 01:28:18,280 Speaker 9: Mean, look how it worked with Gary Sanchez and the Padres. 1916 01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:20,439 Speaker 9: I'm sure they can maybe hit strike gold with one 1917 01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:22,120 Speaker 9: of these DFA guys. 1918 01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:27,000 Speaker 10: I mean the broken clocks right twice a day, enough 1919 01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:28,760 Speaker 10: ship at the wall, and eventually some of it will 1920 01:28:28,760 --> 01:28:32,160 Speaker 10: stick exactly a broken clocks for exactly so you know, 1921 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:34,120 Speaker 10: not that la Mette is the guy at all. 1922 01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:36,200 Speaker 1: I really am not an advocate for that. 1923 01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:39,840 Speaker 9: If you're smart, if you're smarter than other teams, you 1924 01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:41,920 Speaker 9: pick up their trash and it works out for you 1925 01:28:42,040 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 9: like the Rays do. And you know, hopefully they are 1926 01:28:45,960 --> 01:28:48,160 Speaker 9: keeping their eyes and ears open for players that are 1927 01:28:48,240 --> 01:28:48,679 Speaker 9: df FAID. 1928 01:28:48,960 --> 01:28:52,360 Speaker 1: But not in Nelselett police, we. 1929 01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:54,639 Speaker 2: Got we've got one more requests here, we'll do last 1930 01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:58,200 Speaker 2: calls on speaking requests for kind of a one running 1931 01:28:58,200 --> 01:29:00,639 Speaker 2: out of time to running out of we want to time. 1932 01:29:00,680 --> 01:29:02,800 Speaker 2: We'll get Alex and chairs and here Kevin wants me 1933 01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:06,640 Speaker 2: to shout him out.

He got promoted to sixth grade? 1937 01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,720 Speaker 2: Yet he's somehow taking your college class tomorrow. I don't 1938 01:29:16,760 --> 01:29:20,439 Speaker 2: know why Florida International University let him do that, But 1939 01:29:21,360 --> 01:29:22,840 Speaker 2: sixth graders, man, I. 1940 01:29:22,840 --> 01:29:25,400 Speaker 1: Think there's a type in the system over there.

There's nothing else really going on tonight. 1950 01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:51,759 Speaker 2: A lot of people have the day off work tomorrow. 1951 01:29:52,080 --> 01:29:59,559 Speaker 2: Thank you all for tuning in. Of course, we'll give 1952 01:29:59,600 --> 01:29:59,960 Speaker 2: it like an. 1953 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:04,479 Speaker 1: Other minn so if if ox can't load in here. 1954 01:30:05,080 --> 01:30:10,080 Speaker 2: But it's another important week for the Marlins, as we said, 1955 01:30:10,240 --> 01:30:11,120 Speaker 2: I'll reiterate it. 1956 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:14,240 Speaker 1: And Blue Jays are a good team and the Pirates 1957 01:30:14,360 --> 01:30:16,280 Speaker 1: they are struggling right now. I think it's a very 1958 01:30:16,360 --> 01:30:19,280 Speaker 1: good opportunity for for the. 1959 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:22,000 Speaker 2: Marlins to strike on a team that's struggling right now. 1960 01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:24,559 Speaker 2: Definitely don't want to be that team that someone gets 1961 01:30:24,600 --> 01:30:27,040 Speaker 2: it together against. If you want to really look even 1962 01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:31,360 Speaker 2: further ahead, next week. They the Marlins got a Fenway. 1963 01:30:31,840 --> 01:30:32,439 Speaker 1: That'll be fun. 1964 01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:34,680 Speaker 2: We will have on site coverage app family know what 1965 01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:37,599 Speaker 2: Burger will be there for us. Should be pretty cool. 1966 01:30:37,880 --> 01:30:39,360 Speaker 2: What number ballpark is that for us? 1967 01:30:39,400 --> 01:30:39,519 Speaker 3: Now? 1968 01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:40,120 Speaker 1: You lie. 1969 01:30:41,600 --> 01:30:44,160 Speaker 3: For this season or forever, ever. 1970 01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:50,639 Speaker 2: Forever and anyone Fish on first, last Fish Stripes member 1971 01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:51,640 Speaker 2: has set foot in. 1972 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:56,479 Speaker 3: I think it might be nine or ten. That's my ballpark, 1973 01:30:56,520 --> 01:30:59,759 Speaker 3: guess some of them, some of the eleven. 1974 01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 2: So to close it out, I can actually because Alec yeah, 1975 01:31:04,080 --> 01:31:06,600 Speaker 2: because I'm having an important point I have. 1976 01:31:06,880 --> 01:31:09,800 Speaker 1: I have a question actually for Isaac as dude, so 1977 01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:10,840 Speaker 1: I know that this is this guy. 1978 01:31:10,920 --> 01:31:12,680 Speaker 5: I know he made a big league debut today, So 1979 01:31:12,680 --> 01:31:14,280 Speaker 5: I'm gonna I'm gonna have a question for Isaac. 1980 01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:16,000 Speaker 1: Isaac, what is your. 1981 01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:22,799 Speaker 5: Expectation or maybe fellow major league comp for Jacob Amia. 1982 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:26,519 Speaker 1: I'll have to do a little bit more thinking on 1983 01:31:26,600 --> 01:31:29,360 Speaker 1: the comp. But my expectation for Amaya is that he's 1984 01:31:29,360 --> 01:31:30,639 Speaker 1: gonna be here for the rest of the season. 1985 01:31:31,760 --> 01:31:31,880 Speaker 7: Right. 1986 01:31:31,960 --> 01:31:34,439 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna play himself into a role. 1987 01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:35,840 Speaker 9: That they just can't set him down. He's gonn play 1988 01:31:35,880 --> 01:31:39,840 Speaker 9: himself into that Garret Hampson John Berry role. He runs 1989 01:31:40,040 --> 01:31:42,360 Speaker 9: well enough where I think he'll get enough playing time 1990 01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:46,320 Speaker 9: and he's gonna be a defensive replacement type player who 1991 01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:49,200 Speaker 9: crushes left handed pitching. If you read my season preview 1992 01:31:49,280 --> 01:31:50,559 Speaker 9: on Jacob Amayah, this is someone that. 1993 01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:51,840 Speaker 1: Just crushed it last year. 1994 01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:54,720 Speaker 9: I guess left handed pitching, you're just crushed all high 1995 01:31:54,800 --> 01:31:55,960 Speaker 9: levels of the minor leagues. 1996 01:31:56,439 --> 01:31:58,000 Speaker 1: And I liked the approach. 1997 01:31:58,040 --> 01:31:59,400 Speaker 9: I know it was Patrick Korban, but you know what 1998 01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:01,360 Speaker 9: that's a it's a major league pitcher that he had 1999 01:32:01,520 --> 01:32:04,120 Speaker 9: really great advants. I was able to watch the first 2000 01:32:04,160 --> 01:32:07,400 Speaker 9: three and I watch the fourth played appearance, but I'm 2001 01:32:07,520 --> 01:32:08,639 Speaker 9: very excited about this young player. 2002 01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:10,080 Speaker 1: I think he's got one of the higher floors. I 2003 01:32:10,080 --> 01:32:12,040 Speaker 1: don't think he's got a tremendously high ceiling like. 2004 01:32:12,120 --> 01:32:15,360 Speaker 9: We've mentioned previously, but I think he's got a relatively 2005 01:32:15,439 --> 01:32:18,559 Speaker 9: high floor offensively, and the glove is already major league ready, 2006 01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:19,639 Speaker 9: and that's. 2007 01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:21,360 Speaker 1: Got goal globe potential. Obviously. 2008 01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:23,280 Speaker 9: By goal glob, I don't think he's ever going to 2009 01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:24,840 Speaker 9: win one, because I don't think he's gonna be an 2010 01:32:24,880 --> 01:32:27,759 Speaker 9: everyday starter realistically, but I think he's got a relatively 2011 01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:29,640 Speaker 9: high floor where he'll be a major leaguer for. 2012 01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:31,880 Speaker 1: A long time. I'm very excited about this young player. 2013 01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:34,280 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I'm excited about him as well. 2014 01:32:34,320 --> 01:32:37,280 Speaker 1: But I know he he made use of the conditions 2015 01:32:37,320 --> 01:32:38,040 Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. 2016 01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:42,240 Speaker 5: Fortune right field, you know, and a couple of other 2017 01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:45,080 Speaker 5: things that happened in Jacksonville where the ball kind of kind. 2018 01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:45,920 Speaker 1: Of flies all little bit there. 2019 01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:48,200 Speaker 5: I don't think it's I think it's a neutralized environment. 2020 01:32:48,240 --> 01:32:51,160 Speaker 5: But he made the most of right field. So my 2021 01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:54,439 Speaker 5: question for you, my last question and my follow up 2022 01:32:54,520 --> 01:32:57,840 Speaker 5: question would be over under five home runs for the 2023 01:32:57,920 --> 01:32:59,720 Speaker 5: rest of the season for Amaya. I always say under, 2024 01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:01,720 Speaker 5: but I'll go ahead. I get over four and a 2025 01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:05,439 Speaker 5: half home runs. I say over pre season bold prediction 2026 01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:06,040 Speaker 5: was over. 2027 01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:06,639 Speaker 1: Twelve and a half. 2028 01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:09,040 Speaker 9: I think that might be I thought he would have 2029 01:33:09,080 --> 01:33:11,200 Speaker 9: been called up by now earlier in the season, but 2030 01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:12,840 Speaker 9: I think over four and a half is an easy over. 2031 01:33:12,960 --> 01:33:14,400 Speaker 9: He's got a little bit of pop and like I 2032 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:16,240 Speaker 9: said in the tweet where he was called up this morning, 2033 01:33:16,720 --> 01:33:18,080 Speaker 9: bag no miss sorry, Yesterda'm sorry. 2034 01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:20,479 Speaker 1: Make no mistake. He is a glove first prospect. 2035 01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:23,160 Speaker 9: He is a glove oriented shortstop that just happens to 2036 01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:24,800 Speaker 9: be just crushing the ball right now in a very 2037 01:33:24,840 --> 01:33:28,519 Speaker 9: hitter friendly environment at Jacksonville, So you know everyone tweeting 2038 01:33:28,600 --> 01:33:32,120 Speaker 9: out his crazy stats the last five weeks or six weeks. Yes, 2039 01:33:32,400 --> 01:33:35,080 Speaker 9: he's just happened to be crushing. Doesn't necessarily mean he's 2040 01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:38,400 Speaker 9: gonna slash three thirty four seventy and five ten. But 2041 01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:42,280 Speaker 9: I think he'll hit two sixty three ten, three eighty 2042 01:33:42,360 --> 01:33:45,360 Speaker 9: three ninety slugging and be able to crush a couple 2043 01:33:45,439 --> 01:33:48,120 Speaker 9: over the wall even at lone Depo Park. You know, 2044 01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:50,040 Speaker 9: if John Burdie could hit it over the leftfield wall, 2045 01:33:50,800 --> 01:33:53,240 Speaker 9: I think Jacob Maya can as well. Megeo Rojas had 2046 01:33:53,280 --> 01:33:56,400 Speaker 9: a power surgeon in twenty nineteen. Think Miguel Rojas. What 2047 01:33:56,520 --> 01:33:58,240 Speaker 9: year was it that we comped into. I think it 2048 01:33:58,280 --> 01:34:02,320 Speaker 9: was twenty fifteen, Miguill Rojas, Sugar let me all disfermations 2049 01:34:02,360 --> 01:34:04,679 Speaker 9: that get back to you, but it was one like, okay, 2050 01:34:04,720 --> 01:34:05,559 Speaker 9: you're bil Rollas. 2051 01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:08,760 Speaker 3: That would be my mentorally for I have another comp 2052 01:34:08,920 --> 01:34:13,679 Speaker 3: for him. I'll give you Nick Ahmed the Diamondbacks. Ah yeah, 2053 01:34:13,720 --> 01:34:16,160 Speaker 3: he scaled down the defense a little bit because Ahmed 2054 01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:18,000 Speaker 3: has had a couple of years where he's truly been 2055 01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:20,560 Speaker 3: off the charts on that side of the ball. But 2056 01:34:20,600 --> 01:34:23,519 Speaker 3: I think offensively that that's kind of what you're looking 2057 01:34:23,560 --> 01:34:26,080 Speaker 3: at with him, where everything goes right, he could push 2058 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:29,120 Speaker 3: for twenty home runs at his peak. I think ordinarily 2059 01:34:29,160 --> 01:34:30,320 Speaker 3: it's going to be a little less than that, and 2060 01:34:30,479 --> 01:34:33,559 Speaker 3: the point time could be a bit erratic. But Ahmed 2061 01:34:33,720 --> 01:34:37,640 Speaker 3: just like him, alrighty hitter who when he even when 2062 01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:40,040 Speaker 3: he's not playing every day, I think he still has 2063 01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:42,759 Speaker 3: value when he's facing lefties in his career. Yeah, actually, 2064 01:34:42,840 --> 01:34:45,400 Speaker 3: Nick Ahmed has been an above average hitter against lefties 2065 01:34:45,439 --> 01:34:48,320 Speaker 3: in his major league career. I think that I like 2066 01:34:48,400 --> 01:34:50,479 Speaker 3: that comp with you know, you scale down the defensive 2067 01:34:50,520 --> 01:34:53,439 Speaker 3: expectations a little bit because Ahmed's been off the charts 2068 01:34:53,479 --> 01:34:54,719 Speaker 3: and had a couple of points. 2069 01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:54,960 Speaker 9: Of his career. 2070 01:34:55,600 --> 01:35:01,000 Speaker 1: What what he sorry that? What? What are your thoughts 2071 01:35:01,040 --> 01:35:03,760 Speaker 1: Isaac about him wearing JJ Bled's old number. I think 2072 01:35:03,800 --> 01:35:06,719 Speaker 1: they're doing him a huge service. I was very upset 2073 01:35:06,760 --> 01:35:07,120 Speaker 1: to see that. 2074 01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:08,960 Speaker 9: I think you don't want to put that bad juju 2075 01:35:09,080 --> 01:35:10,960 Speaker 9: on this young player who you're very excited again. I 2076 01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:14,080 Speaker 9: can't believe Kim and got Jacob Omeyer for Miguel Rojas. 2077 01:35:15,240 --> 01:35:17,400 Speaker 9: It was this accurate that he's already has a higher 2078 01:35:17,439 --> 01:35:19,120 Speaker 9: war than Maggie Rowe this year. 2079 01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:22,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how I think Maggie 2080 01:35:22,120 --> 01:35:23,000 Speaker 1: row is negative. 2081 01:35:23,040 --> 01:35:25,360 Speaker 9: So right, okay, so yeah, that was a stupid tweet 2082 01:35:25,400 --> 01:35:28,120 Speaker 9: that I saw, right of course. But yeah, I don't 2083 01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:31,320 Speaker 9: like that number sixty seven unless that's the number he chose. 2084 01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:34,400 Speaker 1: Maybe it's in Jordan mccerson's story, unless it's the number 2085 01:35:34,439 --> 01:35:37,280 Speaker 1: he chose. And fine, but I don't like that at all. 2086 01:35:37,840 --> 01:35:40,360 Speaker 1: They're just putting bad juju in the air. I'm not 2087 01:35:40,400 --> 01:35:40,920 Speaker 1: a fan of that. 2088 01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:45,200 Speaker 9: You you don't want to do one failed prospects and 2089 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:46,800 Speaker 9: give that number to another one. 2090 01:35:47,000 --> 01:35:50,160 Speaker 1: That's I don't hold his jersey and he should be Okay, 2091 01:35:50,600 --> 01:35:52,320 Speaker 1: I'll be asked. I'll be back to ask. 2092 01:35:52,439 --> 01:35:54,760 Speaker 5: Isaac more questions when Jacob Barry makes his Major League 2093 01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:55,519 Speaker 5: to be thinking that's. 2094 01:35:55,439 --> 01:35:59,240 Speaker 1: All I happened.

It's really but I'll. 2128 01:37:43,360 --> 01:37:46,040 Speaker 5: Give you an honest answer, Sean, and I would say, no, 2129 01:37:46,560 --> 01:37:48,719 Speaker 5: I do not expect there to be an uptacking attendance. 2130 01:37:48,760 --> 01:37:50,360 Speaker 5: I think it's going to be same old, same oled. 2131 01:37:51,120 --> 01:37:52,560 Speaker 5: I think it's going to be the same kind of 2132 01:37:52,640 --> 01:37:57,439 Speaker 5: crowds until this team as actually playing playoff games or 2133 01:37:57,600 --> 01:38:00,760 Speaker 5: maybe is playing very meaningful games very late in the 2134 01:38:00,800 --> 01:38:03,519 Speaker 5: season that are going to determine whether they make the 2135 01:38:03,520 --> 01:38:04,160 Speaker 5: playoffs or not. 2136 01:38:04,920 --> 01:38:07,280 Speaker 1: This sports market is what it is. 2137 01:38:07,479 --> 01:38:10,080 Speaker 5: We all know it to be. What it is that 2138 01:38:10,320 --> 01:38:12,640 Speaker 5: people will only show up. The Panthers went through it, 2139 01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:15,400 Speaker 5: The Dolphins pretty much go through it every year. The 2140 01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:17,439 Speaker 5: Marlins has gone through it for a very long time. 2141 01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:21,840 Speaker 5: This this sports market only shows up when you've either 2142 01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:25,200 Speaker 5: proven that you're winning games and you're playing meaningful games 2143 01:38:25,280 --> 01:38:27,600 Speaker 5: late in the season, or you're in the playoffs. And 2144 01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:29,840 Speaker 5: the Marlins are not close to either one of those yet. Yes, 2145 01:38:29,880 --> 01:38:32,439 Speaker 5: they've had a good stretch. Yes they're ten games over. Yes, 2146 01:38:32,600 --> 01:38:34,719 Speaker 5: we as diehard fans know that that is a huge 2147 01:38:34,760 --> 01:38:37,439 Speaker 5: win for the organization, especially with where they're at. 2148 01:38:37,400 --> 01:38:40,840 Speaker 1: With advanced stats. Is it sustainable, That's what we need 2149 01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:41,200 Speaker 1: to see. 2150 01:38:41,840 --> 01:38:44,800 Speaker 5: But until it is sustainable, and until they prove that 2151 01:38:45,120 --> 01:38:47,760 Speaker 5: they're going to be playing meaningful games late in a 2152 01:38:47,840 --> 01:38:51,160 Speaker 5: season and not less than halfway through a season, the 2153 01:38:51,240 --> 01:38:52,679 Speaker 5: fans are not going to show up in droves. 2154 01:38:52,840 --> 01:38:54,639 Speaker 1: So no, I do not expect the difference. 2155 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:59,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, what I'll say is that even the secondary factors 2156 01:38:59,520 --> 01:39:02,640 Speaker 3: are not in their favor for this particular week. The opponents, 2157 01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:04,839 Speaker 3: the Blue Jays and the Pirates, those are not teams 2158 01:39:04,920 --> 01:39:10,360 Speaker 3: that really draw a whole lot of crowds from South Florida. 2159 01:39:10,560 --> 01:39:13,040 Speaker 3: There's not a whole lot of people that have strong 2160 01:39:13,080 --> 01:39:16,760 Speaker 3: affinities for those among those that are living down here. 2161 01:39:17,120 --> 01:39:22,520 Speaker 3: So there's that aspect of it. Even from a marketing perspective. 2162 01:39:22,760 --> 01:39:24,360 Speaker 3: On an individual level, the fact that you have a 2163 01:39:24,400 --> 01:39:27,560 Speaker 3: couple bullpen games during this home stands on Monday and 2164 01:39:27,600 --> 01:39:30,479 Speaker 3: then very likely again on Saturday, you know, the starting 2165 01:39:30,520 --> 01:39:33,880 Speaker 3: pitching is not going to sell all that much. In 2166 01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:36,200 Speaker 3: this aspect, I don't think Jazz is going to be 2167 01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:39,040 Speaker 3: back until the very end of the weekend if that 2168 01:39:39,520 --> 01:39:41,840 Speaker 3: they don't have him to like draw you in the 2169 01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:44,320 Speaker 3: right direction. That's on top of the main thing, as 2170 01:39:44,400 --> 01:39:47,960 Speaker 3: Carver pointed out, the way that this market behaves, and 2171 01:39:48,080 --> 01:39:49,800 Speaker 3: the fact that I don't think there's a whole lot 2172 01:39:49,840 --> 01:39:52,920 Speaker 3: of season ticket holders in the first place for this 2173 01:39:53,040 --> 01:39:55,200 Speaker 3: team that are suddenly going to use those tickets that 2174 01:39:55,280 --> 01:39:59,720 Speaker 3: weren't already before they already just entering this season, there 2175 01:39:59,840 --> 01:40:04,639 Speaker 3: was not a whole lot of that ticket holder fan 2176 01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:07,400 Speaker 3: base as it was, and that will go up a 2177 01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:10,599 Speaker 3: lot if they make the playoffs heading into next year. 2178 01:40:11,439 --> 01:40:14,080 Speaker 3: But I don't think you really see that big uptick 2179 01:40:14,240 --> 01:40:18,280 Speaker 3: until they actually accomplish something, something tangible more so than 2180 01:40:18,360 --> 01:40:20,720 Speaker 3: just getting hot for a period of time, Until they 2181 01:40:20,840 --> 01:40:24,599 Speaker 3: have that milestone, likely being that playoff berth, Until they 2182 01:40:24,600 --> 01:40:26,560 Speaker 3: have something like that that they can point to that 2183 01:40:26,760 --> 01:40:31,759 Speaker 3: gets people to like come out on a consistent basis. 2184 01:40:32,280 --> 01:40:34,040 Speaker 3: It's not as if they're going to draw a whole 2185 01:40:34,080 --> 01:40:37,160 Speaker 3: lot of individual people on a whim just because of 2186 01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:44,200 Speaker 3: a streak of recent play. In my estimation, is that. 2187 01:40:44,280 --> 01:40:49,040 Speaker 11: All you got, Sean, Yeah, that was a lot of 2188 01:40:49,200 --> 01:40:51,240 Speaker 11: take on that. I'd agree it would be a lot better. 2189 01:40:51,280 --> 01:40:54,240 Speaker 11: If this is the Braves and Mets week in September, 2190 01:40:54,479 --> 01:40:59,960 Speaker 11: that is high prediction is they get an average. 2191 01:40:59,560 --> 01:41:02,880 Speaker 2: Of six hundred and fifty more fans for this home stand. 2192 01:41:03,840 --> 01:41:05,720 Speaker 2: It is an increase, but it's not a big one. 2193 01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:10,080 Speaker 2: Any final parting thoughts before we end. 2194 01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:12,200 Speaker 9: This, The last thing I'd say is that if the 2195 01:41:12,200 --> 01:41:14,280 Speaker 9: Blue Jay if the series were switched and Pittsburgh was 2196 01:41:14,320 --> 01:41:15,800 Speaker 9: during the week and the Blue Jays were on the weekend, 2197 01:41:15,840 --> 01:41:17,000 Speaker 9: you would see a little bit of an. 2198 01:41:16,920 --> 01:41:18,760 Speaker 1: Uptick in attendance. I think. 2199 01:41:18,880 --> 01:41:20,840 Speaker 9: I think, I think the Blue Jays have enough names 2200 01:41:21,400 --> 01:41:24,200 Speaker 9: that it would it would bring a few more fans 2201 01:41:24,280 --> 01:41:27,120 Speaker 9: than usual. It's like Flaid, Bobichez leading the league and hits. 2202 01:41:27,240 --> 01:41:28,640 Speaker 9: I think that would have done. Has a lot of 2203 01:41:28,640 --> 01:41:30,400 Speaker 9: former Marlins in that Blue Jays bullpit as well, so 2204 01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:32,200 Speaker 9: maybe that could bring draw more. 2205 01:41:32,080 --> 01:41:35,240 Speaker 1: Diehards as well. Speaking of speaking of former Marlins, the 2206 01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:38,200 Speaker 1: very last thing to point out is that the flatback 2207 01:41:38,280 --> 01:41:40,800 Speaker 1: Friday has the all time staves leader. 2208 01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:43,080 Speaker 5: No, Kevin, he does not have three hundred saves, but 2209 01:41:43,120 --> 01:41:45,439 Speaker 5: he does have like over one hundred. That was a 2210 01:41:45,520 --> 01:41:47,600 Speaker 5: Kevin joke from a previous Jeopardy. Unless any of you 2211 01:41:47,640 --> 01:41:50,200 Speaker 5: guys caught that I don't know, but yeah, this all 2212 01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:53,000 Speaker 5: Times Staves leader in Marlin's history is robnn will be 2213 01:41:53,080 --> 01:41:56,480 Speaker 5: there and so will Preston Wilson. So some cool alumnis 2214 01:41:56,560 --> 01:42:00,559 Speaker 5: to uh to check out for fans and go handshakes 2215 01:42:00,560 --> 01:42:01,240 Speaker 5: and whatever it may be. 2216 01:42:01,400 --> 01:42:06,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean the marketing stuff is on the upswing. 2217 01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:09,280 Speaker 1: I would say, I think there's also a bobblehead this week. 2218 01:42:09,280 --> 01:42:12,000 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure if I'm not mistaken. So they're doing 2219 01:42:12,080 --> 01:42:15,200 Speaker 1: what they can. But yeah, Sean, and it's can happen 2220 01:42:15,280 --> 01:42:16,360 Speaker 1: till they do something that's it. 2221 01:42:17,680 --> 01:42:21,040 Speaker 2: I actually highly, highly highly suggest going to the ballpark 2222 01:42:21,080 --> 01:42:23,080 Speaker 2: on Friday because Apple TV. 2223 01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:23,559 Speaker 1: Has that game. 2224 01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:26,639 Speaker 2: So if you don't have Apple TV, don't like their 2225 01:42:26,680 --> 01:42:31,080 Speaker 2: broadcasts and our free Friday Night, which I'm definitely those 2226 01:42:31,160 --> 01:42:32,960 Speaker 2: first two, go out to the ballpark. 2227 01:42:33,200 --> 01:42:34,280 Speaker 1: It should be a good game. 2228 01:42:34,320 --> 01:42:39,280 Speaker 2: Again, like Alex said, flashback Fridays, and you can watch 2229 01:42:39,320 --> 01:42:42,679 Speaker 2: it from the ballpark rather than your phone or your. 2230 01:42:42,600 --> 01:42:44,640 Speaker 1: Apple TV stick. I think it's a good idea, so 2231 01:42:45,320 --> 01:42:47,400 Speaker 1: we'll leave it at that. We'll do the same time 2232 01:42:47,479 --> 01:42:47,920 Speaker 1: next week. 2233 01:42:47,960 --> 01:42:50,800 Speaker 2: Thank you all for listening once again, and hopefully we 2234 01:42:50,960 --> 01:42:54,400 Speaker 2: come back to another over five hundred week for the Marlins, 2235 01:42:54,439 --> 01:42:54,479 Speaker 2: and 2236 01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:56,120 Speaker 1: We'll see you guys this time next week.
