So yesterday we saw 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: a Marlins win against the Atlanta Braves. The Marlins made 6 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: quick work of the Braves. In short Paplo Lopez got 7 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: it going with six straight strikes two strikeouts on his 8 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: way to nine consecutive strikeouts to start the game, setting 9 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: a modern record in Major League Baseball. 10 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 2: One ball two strikes said here it comes called strike 11 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 2: three Major League match nine strikeoutshi Road to. 12 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: Start the day at the plate against Ian Anderson in 13 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: the first, the Marlins started patient, drawing two walks before 14 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: Hayes's aguilar blast of three run shot from then the 15 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: Marlins led the rest of the way as Pablo's streak 16 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: came to the close. Second time through the order, Jesus 17 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: Sanchez kept the offense going with a squealtering double and 18 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 1: miggi ro got him home. It was four and oh 19 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: before Pablo had to dare with that. Second time through, 20 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: he did run into some trouble as Freddie Freeman broke 21 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: the no No in the fourth with a double, and 22 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: Freddy did come around to score, and the Braves got 23 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: two in the fourth, but the lead was protected. In 24 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: the bottom of the inning, the Marlins firmly rebuttled with 25 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,919 Speaker 1: two runs of their own on RBI hits by Garrett 26 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: Cooper and Jesu's Aguilar. Cooper stayed hot with that double. 27 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: In the sixth, with Pablo still going, Danzby Swanson took 28 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: him deep for his fourteenth of the year, put him 29 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: in the bottom of the inning, Jesus Sanchez hit a 30 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: triple and Miguel again brought him home. Jesus and Miguel 31 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: both had three hits in the game, and the bullpen 32 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: was able to close it out with Richard Bleier, Anthony 33 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: Bass where he can shut out innings, and Anthony Bender 34 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: getting the ninth up seven to three. As Monte Harrison 35 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: came into the game as a defensive replacement over Garrett 36 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: Cooper in right, Anthony Bender sent the first ball his 37 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: way as Orlando Arcia recorded the first. Then came Dan's 38 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: by Swanson and his fifteenth home run of the year, 39 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: second of the game, but Anthony was able to settle down, 40 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: close it out and let the home run sit as 41 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: just as small infraction against his nearly pristine era. As 42 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: the day went on, a couple of Marlin's prospects got 43 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: the national spotlight, as Max Meyer and Jake Eder twenty 44 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:56,679 Speaker 1: twenty draft picks were invited to the Futures Game at Corsfield, 45 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: a part of this All Star weekend of Festivit headlined 46 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: by the All Star Game itself home run derby Major 47 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: League Draft I wanted to look a little bit deeper 48 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: at the performance of Max Meyer and Jake Eater in 49 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: this game, and first up is Max, who came in 50 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: in the second inning to face twenty nineteen one to 51 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: one first overall pick Adley Rutchman, generally considered to be 52 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: the second best prospect in baseball behind Wander Franco and 53 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: subject of the demands of Orioles fans who want him 54 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: catching in the major leagues now. As he started out 55 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: against Adley, he threw a fastball just low, Adley let 56 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 1: it go, and then Max stuck with his fastball again, 57 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: this time up and in inside the zone, and Adley 58 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: let loose at the strike but got under it popped 59 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: it weekly too shallow left field for the first out. 60 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 1: Next up, Max faced professionally developed Nick Prato, who was 61 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: first round draftee in twenty eighteen out of Huntington High School, 62 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 1: and it has spent the last couple of years in 63 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: the minor leagues, opting against the development offered by the 64 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: collegiate leagues, having not established any of his secondary pitches. 65 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: In this just glimpse of his talent for the National Spotlight, 66 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: he came inside with a fastball that just missed Low 67 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: Max was taken out of the game to align with 68 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,679 Speaker 1: the demands of a nine pitcher staff and a seven 69 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: inning game and ultimately a bit of an exhibition, just 70 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: a fun gathering where the game's not so much about 71 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: a win as it is more about the approach that 72 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: these talented players take. 73 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 2: Big Fish Small Pod is brought to you by three 74 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 2: oh five Candles.

This this coveted and proportionately priced 84 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: talent has been placed in Double A to start his 85 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:32,280 Speaker 1: start his development in minor league baseball. Jake Eader got 86 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: the at bat going with a fastball perfectly located ninety 87 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: five at the top of the zone for a swinging strike. 88 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: He followed up with another fastball up in the zone, 89 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: this time fouled tipped into the glove pretty well on 90 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: the end of the zone. There as Leon got closer 91 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: to contact, but two more fastballs, one up and one low, 92 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: both out of the zone, Leon did not chase. Jake 93 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: took the is a sign to go with his change up, 94 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 1: put it pretty much right down the middle, and he 95 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: got just a swing a miss right through it. Next 96 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: up for Jake was Riley Green, a lefty who was 97 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: drafted at eighteen out of Haggarty High School in Orlando 98 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: at fifth overall in the first round twenty nineteen draft. 99 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: Since then, he's been a solid performer. This year at 100 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: Double A, he s hit two eighty five, three seventy two, 101 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: four seventy three for an overall ops of eight forty 102 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: six at double A and just twenty years of age. 103 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: Jake started him off with a secondary pitch with big 104 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: break that didn't quite get back to the zone, ending 105 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: at the plate just nowhere, really close. Then at one 106 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 1: oh he threw a fastball that was just driven to 107 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: write on the ground, but hard all the way to write. 108 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 1: With another quick hook, Jake was out at the game. 109 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: In the quick audience, both Max and Jake were not 110 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,239 Speaker 1: able to establish a breaking pitch, just throwing them once 111 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: each for balls. Jake did really work his locations well 112 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: against pedro Leone and nicked speechs for the strikeout, and 113 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: both Max and Jake were taken out really before they 114 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: had a chance to prove their durability. They didn't pitch 115 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: with runners on base, and they didn't get more than 116 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: that single chance at their breaking pitches. The quick hooks 117 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: didn't really let either potential future star get anything close 118 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: to expose. To really see how these fully realized talents 119 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: line up, we'll have to wait and see, and that 120 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: probably won't happen until they're in a Marlin's uniform. With 121 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: Edward Cabrera also going today for the Pensacola Blue wa 122 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 1: who's Jake Eater, Max Meyer, and Edward Cabrera all could 123 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: possibly line up for a potential We'll start on Friday 124 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: in that doubleheader against the Phillies. Infusing more talent to 125 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: the Marlins roster might help this team a nine game 126 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: deficit in the division over the second half of the season. 127 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: But where we're at now July twelfth, twenty twenty one, 128 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: is a continuation of the Major League Draft. We'll have 129 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: coverage for that Huron Fish Stripes, both yesterday's picks and 130 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: today's as well as tonight's home run derby in course 131 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: featuring Shohei Otani. There's no real reason to get ahead 132 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: of ourselves, as there's plenty of time to let this 133 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: first hop digest and let the second half of the 134 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 1: season emerge. We'll be back with you with another small 135 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: pod tomorrow. Otherwise, we'll have coverage of the All Star 136 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 1: Game on Tuesday, possibly Trevor's appearance in that, and some 137 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: more content breaking down as Marlin's draft class looking in 138 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: deeper as we look to what the future might hold
