Xavier, thank 3 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: you for joining us. We're very honored to have you. Uh, 4 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: let's get started right away. A couple of years ago, 5 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: you were in Tampa, one of their top prospects, and 6 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: you get traded here to Miami. How did you find 7 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 1: out about the trade and was your initial reaction coming 8 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: back pretty. 9 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: Close to home. I found it out. It was at 10 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 2: the forty man roster deadline, the girl five deadline. I 11 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 2: got a call from our I think farm director at 12 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 2: the time, and he was just let me know that 13 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: like they were traded me, they weren't protecting me. And 14 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 2: then I talked to Kim like probably an hour after that, 15 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 2: and then she told me that, you know, they're glad 16 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 2: to have me, bored that they've been trying to trade 17 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 2: for me for a while and they were added me 18 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 2: to the forty minute roster. So that's kind of how 19 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: I found out. And yeah, definitely I had to be 20 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: back home. It's nice having a family, friends to come out. 21 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 2: I want to spend time with family. 22 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 3: And said, how familiar were you with Bendix before the trade? 23 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 3: And now was there was there any familiarity there or not? 24 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 2: Uh? I knew him, you know, vaguely. Uh, just I 25 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: knew the stab in Tampa. I talked to him a 26 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: few times, but not really anything too in depth. I've 27 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 2: gotten to know him more, I would say here than 28 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 2: they did there. 29 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 3: Well, you got up to a little bit of a 30 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 3: late start this year with that injury that you saw. 31 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 3: I think believe it was spring training, the foot infection. 32 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 3: Just take us through the recovery process of that. How 33 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 3: did that even happen? And there's the whole story of that, 34 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 3: because it was crazy. 35 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, really really crazy time. Kind of scary honestly looking 36 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: back on it. So I had athlete's foot, HM ended 37 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 2: up I got into like a pool, and I guess 38 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: the some of the chemicals that are in the pool 39 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 2: ended up getting it more infected or getting it infected period. 40 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 2: So that's how I got like kind of the bacterial 41 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: infection in my bud stream. And then uh yeah, I 42 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 2: mean the recovery process was kind of long. I went 43 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 2: to the hospital, stay had night for a day, got 44 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: a bunch of ivs and hooked up and stuff about 45 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: the boodwork. They figured out what kind of infection it was, 46 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: and then I had to do IV treatments. So I 47 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 2: had a uh like a midline basically in my arm, 48 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 2: uh through like basically like IV. I got my antibiotics 49 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 2: through IV. And I had that in my arm for 50 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: two weeks straight, and a doctor would come to my 51 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: hotel at six am, two pm, and ten pm to 52 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 2: give him my antibiotics for twelve straight days. And I 53 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 2: was just stuck in my arm. I had to leave 54 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 2: it in all hours of a day. And I did 55 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: that for about two weeks. And then after that I 56 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 2: finally started going back in. My foot still wasn't heeled yet, 57 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: but I started going back in. The infection was out 58 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 2: of my system, so that was kind of like out 59 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 2: of the end of clear a bit. And then I 60 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 2: started building up until everybody lifts and slowly doing like 61 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: lowerbody stuff, and then we finally got the wood to close. 62 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 2: And that's how I kind of gotten the clear. 63 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, two months later to make your debut or your 64 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: season debut. Yeah, and you come back and uh really 65 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: start hitting well, and then Milwaukee comes along right after, 66 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: right before the deadline, and you got the cycle. Take 67 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: us through that day and take us through that final 68 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: at that because it was pretty tight right there, right 69 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 1: when uh you know you have to beat out the throw? 70 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 2: Yeah that day, Yeah, I mean I remember it pretty well. 71 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 2: I remember talking to Hardy uh raitting guy in the 72 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: cage for the game. I was like, dude, I think 73 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: I feel it today, cause I the day before my 74 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: face of all, I didn't feel that great in the box, 75 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: just didn't feel like I was on my backside at all. 76 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 2: I couldn't really find it. And then I felt it 77 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 2: that day before in the game. I was like Cardia, 78 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 2: I think I feel it today. And the sure enough 79 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: ended up being a really good day. Uh. But yeah, 80 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 2: I mean the last at BET, I was thinking about 81 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 2: it the whole the last probably like two and a 82 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: half innings. I was thinking, like, there's no way I'm 83 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: gonna fall a singleshy, right, I never been that close 84 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 2: to a cycle before, right, Like, there's no way I'm 85 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 2: gonna fall a singleshy. And for whatever reason, when I 86 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: was on defense, I was like, I think it's gonna 87 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 2: be a too two strike hit. I don't know why 88 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 2: I was thinking two strike hit, for that's a terrible reason, 89 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 2: a terrible excuse to have, or a terrible approach. I 90 00:03:58,040 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: have going to your last set bay of the day, 91 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: but I'm singing two strike hit and I end up 92 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 2: getting it. So I think I did. 93 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 3: Because you were a single shy. Let's say hypothetically you 94 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 3: hit one into the gap or something. Would you stop 95 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: at first? Yeah, no way you're stopping. 96 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: I hit it on one the other day. I never 97 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 2: hit a cycle in my life. So you hit went 98 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 2: to the wall. You're staying. 99 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: That's hilarious. 100 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: And we were down by like four or six to two. 101 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 3: Right, If anything, it helps you base runners. 102 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, we need more base runners. 103 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: I've been all right, you are. 104 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 3: You've been switching in for a long time. Just when 105 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 3: did that begin for you and was there ever a 106 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 3: time in your professional career where you were thinking of 107 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 3: just giving that up and only hitting from your natural side. 108 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 2: I started really really young, like about six years old 109 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 2: or so. My dad got me into it, and I 110 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 2: put a lot of time in it. I didn't really 111 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: start doing it until in games until like nine or ten, 112 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: because you know, when you're like eight nine, the travel 113 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: baseball games seemed like the World Series every weekend. Yeah, 114 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 2: so I had to win. And then my dad was 115 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 2: just like you know, like you didn't have to do 116 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: it and practice it doing the game if you really 117 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 2: want to be good at it it so I just 118 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 2: I stuck with it. I'm really glad I did. There 119 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 2: was times, you know, doing amateur ball and stuff where 120 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 2: I I thought about not hitting left anymore. But now 121 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 2: I'm really glad that I stuck with it. And uh, yeah, 122 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 2: it's been been a huge blessing. And I'm glad that 123 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 2: my dad talking to you. 124 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: Faced a lot of pictures in your career. Last year, 125 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: especially as well in the playoffs you have to face 126 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: a really good Phillies bullpen. Just who's been the toughest 127 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: guys you. 128 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 2: Faced, toughest guys are faced. I mean there's there's a 129 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: good bill, you know. The guys that prey got good stuff. 130 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: I thought's about it was good to make a match 131 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 2: to get Schwellenbach for the Braves was good. I'm got 132 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 2: good stuff. I get mixed. I really moved the fall 133 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 2: across the plate. Oh say, there's been a lot of 134 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 2: guys you know, you know, Yeah. 135 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 3: I guess sitting has come pretty easy for you. I'm 136 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 3: just curious because you put the ball in play more 137 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 3: consistently than Oh, I guess acid consistently as anyone in baseball? 138 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: Do you do that? 139 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 3: Do you have like a two strike approach the entire 140 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 3: at bad or do you sort of they're just better 141 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: at putting the ball in play than most people. 142 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 2: No, I wouldn't say I I I do have a 143 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 2: two shrike approach, but not the whole that I usual. 144 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: I'll bring it out with two strikes in the most part, 145 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 2: depending on how I'm feeling. It really depends on how 146 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 2: my swing's feeling and how I feel like my body's 147 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 2: moving the box. But besides that, I just try to 148 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 2: keep it reset bleth swinging good pitches, and I think 149 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 2: of my swinging good pitches and I have a good 150 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 2: chat of making a lot of contact and you'll get 151 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 2: a lot of hits. 152 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: So a defensive leave played chorts off to play second 153 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: for the Moorlands, where if you kind of felt more comfortable, 154 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: and what's the feedback that they've given you, as well 155 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: as just what's the biggest difference between, you know, playing 156 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: those two positions. 157 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 2: I would say the biggest difference, I mean, you just 158 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: have to move your feet a lot more short throws further. 159 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 2: But I think it starts with your feet, just getting 160 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: going towards the ball faster, you know, and just getting 161 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:44,839 Speaker 2: your feet moving forward a second you can kind of 162 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: way back, just catch the ball and the guy should 163 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: be out. You know, the show the time. So it's 164 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 2: a bit different at short. But I'm really liking my 165 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: time but short. You know, it's kind of almost forgetting 166 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 2: how to play second cause I haven't played it in 167 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: such a in probably a month and a half now. 168 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: But yeah, it's kind of really diving into playing shortstop 169 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: and I'm really enjoying it again, remembering how much I 170 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: love to playing short as an amateur in beginning of 171 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 2: my pro career, So really enjoying them. 172 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: There. 173 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 3: Spent a lot of time in Jacksonville obviously this year, 174 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 3: last year. Are there any guys currently in Jacksonville that 175 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 3: you think deserve a chance in September when rosters expands. 176 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I mean a bunch of them. You know, 177 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: Troy swinging the bat. I haven't really been looking at stats, 178 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 2: cause I'm not a big I don't really look at 179 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: other people's stats too much. But I mean, I know 180 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 2: Troy can hit. I know Grip's having a good year. Uh, 181 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 2: I know, Mesa. I think he might be hurting now, 182 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: but Masa is having a good year, so now I 183 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 2: can hit. So, you know, there's a lot of guys 184 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 2: that I think deserve shots. Kind of stinks that there's 185 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: only one spot, right and the roster expands. I know 186 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: that some of the new guys are swinging the bat 187 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, guys you got from the Yankees and 188 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: the Dyamics.
