1 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: Fish Stripes Live Offseason Edition number three. My name is Aaigazuit, 2 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: and we have a very very special guest for you 3 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: guys tonight, the voice of the Marlins that's heard on 4 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: nine to forty wins, Glenn Geffner. 5 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 2: Glenn, thank you so much for joining us. 6 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:32,919 Speaker 3: Man. 7 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 4: How are you. 8 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,520 Speaker 3: I'm doing great, Isaac, thank you for having me on tonight. 9 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: Of course, of course, So the first breaking news that 10 00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 1: we sort of have today is the Miguel Rojas extension 11 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: two years. It looks like it's in addition to the 12 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 1: one year that he had already for the twenty twenty 13 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: two season, so he'll be here to at least twenty three. 14 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on the captain staying at short 15 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: for the next couple of years. 16 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:51,959 Speaker 3: Look, I think it's great news. Miggie wants to be here, 17 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 3: the Marlins want to have him here. You think about 18 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 3: it as adding on his second year for four and 19 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 3: a half million dollars, So it seems like a fair 20 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 3: deal for Miggie, a fair deal for the Marrows. Much 21 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 3: sense to not happen? 22 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, if at that price, it's definitely a bargain 23 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: in my opinion. So I guess you know, just the 24 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: first broad question before everyone else comes in, is your 25 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: thoughts on the twenty twenty one season, the good, the bad, 26 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: the ugly, and sort of just compare it to what 27 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 1: your expectations were going into spring training. 28 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you have to say it was disappointing. Realistically. 29 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 3: Was this a playoff team going into the season. I 30 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 3: don't think it was. I don't think many people thought 31 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,319 Speaker 3: that it was. But after the year they had in 32 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 3: twenty twenty, you like to think they would have built 33 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 3: on that a little bit. And could this have been 34 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 3: a seventy five win team of seventy seven win team 35 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 3: had some things gone better. I think it could have been, 36 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 3: probably should have been. And I think you got to 37 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 3: be disappointed that it wasn't to fall off as far 38 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 3: as they did. To lose the kind of games they 39 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 3: lost time and time again, the way they lost a 40 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 3: lot of those games, it was frustrating. And as the 41 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: year went on, and when you didn't have Marte, you 42 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 3: didn't have Duval, you had the injuries and rotation in 43 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 3: the second half of the season, things kind of sprawled 44 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: out of control. So hopefully they can get this thing 45 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: turned around a little bit this winter. And get back 46 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 3: on track next year the craft coming here? Is this 47 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 3: an interview or an intervention? 48 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: Well, we got a full squad for you here today. 49 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: We have no We have John Rodriguez from All Marlins. 50 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 1: You have Kevin Burrall, Alex Carver, and we're start of 51 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: just gonna go around the room and take turns, you know, 52 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: bringing up topics with you, Glenn, and just one you know, 53 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: personal question really quick for me, how is the gig 54 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: at FAU. 55 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 3: That's been a lot of fun for those who don't know. 56 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: I've had the chance to teach a sports broadcasting class 57 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 3: at Florida Land and University this fall. It's something I've 58 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 3: wanted to do for a very long time. For years 59 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 3: and years, I've mentored a lot of high school and 60 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 3: college students aspiring broadcasts. I've worked with a lot of 61 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 3: young broadcasters, and I've wanted to get into a classroom 62 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 3: on a regular basis. This year I had the chance 63 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 3: to do it for the first time. I'm really enjoying 64 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 3: it a lot. A very eager group, a very enthusiastic group, 65 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 3: hard working, and it's been terrific. Looking forward to building 66 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 3: on this semester down the road, maybe doing more in 67 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:48,119 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two. 68 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 2: Awesome. Awesome, those are definitely some lucky students. So I 69 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: guess no. I'm gonna head it off to you for 70 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: your question for Glenn. 71 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 5: Okay, So I have four small questions. The first one. 72 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 3: We're small as this coming up them. 73 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 5: Of all the stadiums that you've been to, of all 74 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 5: the parks that you've been to, which one was your 75 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 5: favorite of broadcasts from in terms of the way you were, 76 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 5: the way the ballpark staff set up the place, and 77 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 5: like the view that from the press box. 78 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 3: That's an interesting question. Whenever I get asked my favorite 79 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 3: ballparks and favorite cities to visit, I always preface it 80 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 3: like this, and I say, I want to start with 81 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 3: cities or ballparks. We don't have a personal connection. I 82 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 3: spend a lot of years at Fenway Park in Boston. 83 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 3: I feel very passionate about Fenway and about the Red Sox. 84 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 3: I spend years in San Diego with the Padres. Feel 85 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 3: passionate about San Diego. But this is a different question. 86 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 3: It's not a favorite city, favorite broadcast booths and locations. 87 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you two that might surprise you. Two 88 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: American League ballparks actually Anaheim and Baltimore where you're really 89 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 3: low and you feel like you're calling a spring training game. 90 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 3: In both of those ballparks, they're great places to call 91 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 3: a game from. With so many of the new parks, 92 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 3: you're way up high, you're pretty far back. You get 93 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 3: used to it over time. We're a little bit higher, 94 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 3: a little bit further back at Lone Depot than we 95 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 3: were in the old football stadium, but you get used 96 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 3: to it. When you do eighty one games their a year. 97 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 3: You don't get used to the height in Washington. You 98 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 3: don't get used to the height in Pittsburgh. Those are 99 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 3: the two that really stand out, but the two that 100 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: I most look forward to going to a two where 101 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 3: we almost never go. Anaheim in Baltimore, it's like a 102 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 3: spring training ballpark really location. 103 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 5: Okay, so that's actually a better answer than I ever expected. 104 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 5: This year, you had a bit of a round robin 105 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 5: with analysts in the booth with you. Of all the 106 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 5: analysts that were with you in the booth this year, 107 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 5: which one was your Which one did you have the 108 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 5: most fun with? Which one? Which one brought more to 109 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 5: the table than the other ones? Which I can't do that, 110 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 5: which one would no. 111 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 3: You know, here, here's the thing. They all brought something different, 112 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 3: which is what I really enjoyed about it. Going into 113 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 3: the year. It was unchartered territory, so I didn't really 114 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 3: know what to expect working with different people from series 115 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 3: to series, homestand to homestand whatever it might be. People 116 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 3: didn't have a ton of experience in the booth call 117 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 3: games also, so I took it upon myself as a challenge. 118 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 3: And instead of playing quarterback maybe as I have in 119 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 3: the past and working with Dave where we're each play 120 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 3: by play people kind of leading the way in our innings, 121 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 3: I felt like I did more of a point guard, 122 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 3: and rather than scoring, I'm looking for assists and trying 123 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 3: to set up JP or Gabby or Kelly or Tommy 124 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 3: Hutton for the handful of the games we did together 125 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 3: this year, whoever it might be. So each of them 126 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 3: bring something different to the table, and you go into 127 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 3: it knowing that JP is a former major league catcher, 128 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 3: has the experienced pitching calling a game things like that. Gabby, 129 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 3: you know, has that Marlins connection first and foremost obviously 130 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 3: a very good big league hitter at all start one 131 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: time in his career brings something different. Kelly Sacho, who's 132 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 3: connection to the players is unique, and she can come 133 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 3: in with individual stories about guys she's really tied in 134 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,559 Speaker 3: in the clubhouse like that. Tommy Hutton's got the history. 135 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 3: I wish I could have done more games with the 136 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 3: Hunt this year because we go back so far just 137 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 3: as good friends, never having worked together before. But each 138 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 3: of them brought something different to the table, and I 139 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: really enjoyed the challenge of trying to draw that out 140 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 3: every night, and it made everything fun and fresh. I might, 141 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 3: do you know, a road trip with Gabby, then a 142 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 3: homestand with JP, for example, and you get that different perspective, 143 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 3: And so I could ask JP maybe the same question 144 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 3: I asked Gabby last week, get a different answer and 145 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 3: answer them might take you down a different road. So 146 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 3: I really tried to embrace it and make the best 147 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 3: of it, and I think it worked out real well 148 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 3: for everybody. 149 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,239 Speaker 5: So my final question, I'm gonna ditch my fourth question. 150 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 3: I was as small and that was a big one. 151 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 5: My final question is I saw that you went to 152 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 5: might be Palmetto Senior High School. I used to live 153 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 5: around the corner from there. My father went there. My 154 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 5: father wanted me to ask you, what year did you 155 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 5: graduate from Palmetto? 156 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 3: Nineteen eighty six? 157 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 5: A long time ago, one year after my father? 158 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 3: Really yeah, really, all right, go panthers. I've been back 159 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 3: there in forever. And the funny thing is I get 160 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 3: asked pre COVID especially, you go to a lot of 161 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 3: schools and speak and talk to broadcasting class journalism classes. 162 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 3: Palmetto might be the only school in Dade County. I 163 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 3: haven't visited, uh since probably shortly after college when I 164 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 3: come back and visit my parents from time to time. 165 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 3: I haven't been back to Palm Metal one years. You know, 166 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 3: they've rebuilt it even beautiful campus now. Yeah.

When I was there, it was 187 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 3: probably only about eight or ten years old, so it's 188 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: I'm sure changed a lot. 189 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, First of all, thank you for doing this. 190 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 4: Second of all, I mean, what's your daily routine when 191 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 4: you get to the ballpark, you know, get ready for 192 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 4: any game? 193 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 3: Really? For the thing is, the daily routine starts long 194 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 3: before I get to the ballpark. I get out of 195 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 3: bed when we're at home or you know, it's different 196 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 3: when we're on the road, as we'll hopefully be again 197 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty two, haven't been the last two seasons. 198 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 3: But when we're at home, I got out of bed 199 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 3: in the morning and I go right into my office 200 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 3: at home and start working, start preparing for the game 201 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 3: every night, reading, putting notes together, stats together, looking for stories, anecdotes, 202 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 3: things like that, talking to people around the game on 203 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 3: the telephone, trying to catch up on latest news and 204 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 3: notes everywhere, So I try to do the bulk of 205 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: my work before I leave for the ballpark, get a 206 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 3: lot of that stuff set up so when I get 207 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: to the ballpark and just write down the lineups, throw 208 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 3: my stats and some notes of my scorebook, and do 209 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 3: the game under normal circle stances when you're not talking 210 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 3: about a COVID situation. When you get to the ballpark, 211 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 3: you want to be in the clubhouse. You want to 212 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 3: be on the field, and that's where you get the 213 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: most important information. You gather on a daily basis by 214 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 3: talking to people. And you know, really have missed being 215 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 3: in the clubhouse the last two years. We have some 216 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 3: field access this year, but in the past, when you're 217 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 3: on the charter with the team, when you're in the 218 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 3: hotels with the team, when you're on the road, when 219 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 3: you're in the clubhouse every single day, particularly when you're 220 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 3: in the clubhouse on the road where there's not a 221 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: lot of other media, that's where you get a lot 222 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 3: of the best information. And for me, it's all about 223 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 3: bringing something to the broadcast every night that nobody else has. 224 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 3: It's about one on one conversations with guys to get 225 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 3: that kind of information. Ask the questions I want to 226 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 3: get answered, the kind of stuff that you can't do 227 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 3: on zoom. You can't get on zoom, and you can't 228 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 3: get if you walk somebody on the field and you're 229 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 3: in a corround thirty two other people run up. I'm 230 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,599 Speaker 3: looking for my own stuff. And so that's been a 231 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 3: challenge the last two years. But you know, I've made 232 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 3: the best of it in doing some one on one 233 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 3: zooms with people or texting with people get a questions answered, 234 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 3: or trying to get people want on one as best 235 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 3: I can. We've done whatever we can these last couple 236 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 3: of years. But that's I think the misnomer. People think 237 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 3: the game starts seven to ten. You show up at 238 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: the ballpark at six thirty. I leave my house at about 239 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 3: two thirty. But I've been working since about seven thirty 240 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 3: eight in the morning. If the team is on the road, 241 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 3: I'll go back to my room after a game and 242 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 3: start working for the next day, you know, late at 243 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 3: night and work into the small hours of the morning. 244 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 3: I just I enjoy the prep. I enjoy the homework 245 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 3: as much as I enjoy doing the games. Really, and 246 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,199 Speaker 3: that stuff's you know, fun. It's a challenge for me 247 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 3: you're looking to find different things you can bring to 248 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 3: the broadcast every night, particularly when you're doing it one 249 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 3: hundred and sixty two times a year, you got to 250 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 3: keep it fresh, you know, Glenn. 251 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Kevin I mentioned the fact that you're doing, 252 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: you know, these road games back in Miami. How big 253 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: of an adjustment is it calling games for monitors, because 254 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: it can't be easy. 255 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,679 Speaker 3: It's tough. It's very tough. And the thing is, in 256 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 3: twenty twenty it was a limited schedule, sixty games, and 257 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 3: you're just so grateful to have any kind of baseball. 258 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 3: The way the year starts guarded that. We got through 259 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 3: it and we figured it's gonna be different in twenty 260 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 3: twenty one. We'll get back out on the road. We'll 261 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 3: be there with the team all the time, when we 262 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 3: weren't in twenty twenty one, and then all of a sudden, 263 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 3: you got a full schedule. Now, all of a sudden, 264 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 3: it was much more of a grind doing those games 265 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 3: this year than it was last year. And if you 266 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 3: think about it, last year, all the road games were 267 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 3: on the East coast. This year, you know, we had 268 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 3: six straight ten ten starts on the West coast at 269 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: one stretch you're getting home two, three in the morning. 270 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 3: That wasn't a lot of fun doing those games remotely, 271 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 3: and especially the way the team struggled on the road 272 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 3: this year, you know, it wasn't a lot of fun 273 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 3: doing those games remotely. And you know, all signs point 274 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 3: to being back on the road in twenty twenty two. 275 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 3: Certainly hope that's the case. There's a big adjustment. 276 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 4: When it comes to the game that you covered this year. 277 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 4: I mean, which one was that one game that you liked, 278 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 4: you know, covering on the radio the most, or that 279 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 4: one play that was just electrifying for you, Although. 280 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 2: There weren't many because of the team this season, but 281 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 2: I mean. 282 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 3: No, but you know, even in a rough year, you know, 283 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 3: you win sixty seven games, you there are memorable performances, 284 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 3: memorable moments. Either are some great walkoff wins. I think 285 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 3: back the first games to come to mind, the Trevor 286 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 3: Rodgers three to nothing went over to Grom at City Field, 287 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: when Jazz hit the home run off to Grom. I 288 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 3: think back to two series, the first and April going 289 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 3: into Atlanta winning three out of four from the Braves, 290 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 3: taking the first three in that series, and thinking you 291 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 3: know what, maybe we can carry on what we started 292 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 3: last year a little bit, going in there and doing 293 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: that against the Braves, winning three out of four at 294 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 3: home against the Dodgers in July before the deadline, when 295 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 3: you're trying to make that one last push to hopefully 296 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 3: salvage the season before the end of July. You know, 297 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 3: then things unraveled after that. But I think there were 298 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 3: three last at bat wins in a row against the Dodgers, 299 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 3: two walkoff wins in that series, the Pablo Lopez game, 300 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 3: the sunny before the All Star break. Against the Braves, 301 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 3: we struck out the first nine in a row. Literally, 302 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 3: we know you wouldn't see him again in TOI the 303 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 3: final day of the season, which was a little bit disappointing, 304 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 3: But those are probably the games that come to mind first, 305 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 3: the Duval game in LA when he hit the three 306 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 3: on home run and then threw bets out at the plate. 307 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: Marlins won that game three to two. Off the top 308 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 3: of my head, those are the first games I think of. 309 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 3: I like's go ahead, Yeah. 310 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 6: Thanks Isaac, Thanks to Glenn for doing this.

So I want to ask you 334 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 6: the same question, what do you think with all of 335 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 6: the competition that's around and people that want to do 336 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 6: exactly what you do, how can young adults that want 337 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 6: to broadcast sports set themselves apart in order to score 338 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 6: a job in this field. 339 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 3: It's a great question, and it's harder than ever to 340 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 3: do it now because there's more competition for these jobs. 341 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 3: I think back to my senior year in college. I 342 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 3: went to the Winter Meetings in Nashville to try to 343 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: get a job broadcast in minor league baseball, and there 344 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 3: were a handful of job seekers there, but it was 345 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 3: a very manageable number, and then you would let down 346 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 3: to the number of people looking for jobs in broadcasting 347 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 3: was even smaller. You go to the Winter meetings now 348 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 3: and you can't turn around and lobby of the hotel 349 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 3: because the number of people trying to get their foot 350 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 3: in the door and start a career in baseball and 351 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 3: in broadcasting, specifically in baseball. So for me, if you 352 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 3: know you want to work in baseball, you've got to 353 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 3: immerse yourself in the game. You've got to learn everything 354 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 3: you possibly can about this sport today and yesterday. You 355 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 3: want to read, you want to ask questions, want to 356 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 3: read books. You want to start talking to people. And 357 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 3: when you get your foot in the door and you 358 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 3: get that first opportunity, you got to work your butt off. 359 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 3: You gotta prepare unlike anybody else. You know, this next 360 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 3: season be my thirty first year in baseball, my twenty 361 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 3: sixth in the big leagues, my fifteenth year, and I 362 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 3: work harder today. I feel like than I did on 363 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 3: day one. I try to work more efficiently as the 364 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 3: years go by. I'm not sure that I've met that 365 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 3: goal yet. Paul Severino and I joke about that all 366 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 3: the time. We're always trying to be more efficient. It 367 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 3: seems like there are ways we could be that we 368 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 3: just haven't quite found yet. But you gotta be prepared. 369 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 3: You got to be something different to the table. For example, 370 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 3: you know, every team puts out game notes, every team 371 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 3: writes a media guide. I don't use game notes or 372 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 3: media guides, and the reason for that is the other 373 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 3: broadcast is calling the game, use the game notes in 374 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 3: the media guide. I want to have my own stuff. 375 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 3: I want to have information that I find interesting, and 376 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 3: my hope is that people who are listening are going 377 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 3: to find it interesting. As well. So I love the homework. 378 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 3: I love the prep and that's something I've really stressed. 379 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 3: If any of my students are watching, they're laughing right 380 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 3: now because we've stressed preparation. Before they broadcast a game, 381 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 3: to turn it into assignment, they do preparation for that game. 382 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 3: The previous assignment is their preparation for that game. Because 383 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 3: for me, it's all about that preparation. And when you 384 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: do this long enough, the preparation isn't just the day 385 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 3: before the game the day of the game. Preparation is 386 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 3: three hundred and sixty five days a year. I'm reading 387 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 3: baseball articles. You know. When I wake up this morning, 388 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 3: I'll do it again tomorrow morning, all day, all year. 389 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 3: You collect things. But the best thing is I got 390 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 3: to the big leagues. At the end of the nineteen 391 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 3: ninety six season. I broke in with the San Diego Padres. 392 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 3: Tony Gwynn was there, and Trevor Hoffman was there, and 393 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 3: Ricky Henderson was there, and a lot of great iconic names, 394 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 3: great players, And you talk to these guys and you 395 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 3: just begin to build up a library of information. Doesn't 396 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 3: happen overnight, But to this day, I'll quote Tony Gwynn, 397 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 3: because something will happen in a game that will remind 398 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 3: me of something Tony Winn said to me in nineteen 399 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 3: ninety eight, for example. But you file it away and 400 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 3: when the right time comes, you have it. And so 401 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 3: that's just this lifetime of preparation and of collecting information 402 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 3: and material, and then as you get older and wiser 403 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 3: and more mature, you realize when the time and the 404 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 3: place is to use it when you're not forcing it 405 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 3: in because you do all this preparation, but it's not 406 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 3: about making sure you cram everything into a broadcast in 407 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 3: a given night. You got to pick your spots. There's 408 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 3: an old doc Emrick line. He does all this preparation 409 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 3: every day and he knows he's only gonna use five 410 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 3: percent of it, but he never knows which five percent 411 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 3: it's gonna be. So he has to do all of 412 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 3: it every day. And if I don't get an anecdote 413 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 3: in about Ronald Acunya Junior in this game against the Braves, well, 414 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 3: it's the first game of a three game series, and 415 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 3: we're gonna play the Braves again next month in Atlanta, 416 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 3: and we've got six series against him this year and 417 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,360 Speaker 3: he's signed a ten year contract, So at some point 418 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 3: I'll tell the Acunya story. I've got things in my 419 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 3: notes that literally been in my notes for a decade 420 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 3: or more that I've never used. But at some point 421 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 3: we're gonna be in Philadelphia and it's gonna be the 422 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 3: right time to use this nugget that I've been sitting 423 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 3: on for a while. So to me, that's what is 424 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 3: one of the things that can set you apart. You know, 425 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 3: it's the effort. It's putting in the time, putting in 426 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 3: the work, developing the relationships, asking questions, gathering a library 427 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,880 Speaker 3: of information, knowing how to employ it. Because some people 428 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 3: are gonna like your voice. Other people aren't gonna like 429 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 3: your voice. Your voice is your voice, though there's nothing 430 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 3: you can do about that. Some people will like your style, 431 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 3: some people won't like your style. Some will grow custom 432 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 3: to your style over time, but there's little you can 433 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 3: do about that. You got to be who you are, 434 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 3: So what do you bring to the table. And it's 435 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 3: no different than a player. You know, every guy in 436 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 3: the big leagues is really talented, but some guys work 437 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,959 Speaker 3: harder than others. Some get the most out of their talent. 438 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 3: And I think that's what will set people apart in 439 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 3: this business as well. 440 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, just to feed off that. You make a great point, 441 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: because when you know, when we're sitting there in the 442 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: press box, I listen to the radio broadcast, and every 443 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: time that you're on, you basically write my recaut for me. Man, 444 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 1: everything that you say you know on the broadcast is 445 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,959 Speaker 1: just relevant information. We'll just stick in a game recap. 446 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 1: But yeah, John, go ahead with your question. 447 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 7: Hey Glenn, it's been an honor. I want to thank 448 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 7: Fish Strikes for making this possible and welcome to the show. 449 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 7: First of all, I want to mention that every every 450 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 7: single time the Marlins Radio Twitter posts you know, one 451 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 7: of your uh, one of your little clips, I make 452 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 7: sure I post that on my page.

Yeah, I'm talking about. And 466 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,479 Speaker 3: so an opposite field home run and a big spot 467 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 3: to win a game from a guy who maybe you 468 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 3: don't expect it from. You know, fans are excited. You 469 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 3: should hear the excitement and maybe the surprise in my 470 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 3: voice because that's that's what you're there for.

How does it 486 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 7: feel like, you know, a day like today? You tweeted 487 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 7: earlier seventeen years years ago, you celebrated a World Series 488 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 7: championship with the Boston Red Sox as an announcer, going 489 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 7: through it all from start to finish? 490 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 3: How was it like? 491 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:08,959 Speaker 7: How was the journey? How was a ride? 492 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 5: Well? 493 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 3: To be clear, in two thousand and four, when I 494 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 3: was at the Red Sox, I wasn't broadcasting. I was 495 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 3: the head of public relations for the Red Sox at 496 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 3: that time. I broadcast at the end of my time 497 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 3: in Boston, right before I came here. But when I 498 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 3: went to San Diego, initially I went into the head 499 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 3: of public relations for the Padres, transitioned into broadcasting my 500 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 3: last couple of years there same thing. In Boston, went 501 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 3: initially as the vice president of communications, and transitioned into 502 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 3: broadcasting there over time. So I was on the air 503 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 3: in two thousand and seven for the World Series and 504 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 3: the Red Sox beat the Rockies for their second win 505 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 3: of I guess we'll call it the modern era they 506 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 3: won a bunch recently, but I wasn't on the air 507 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 3: in two thousand and four. I was the head of 508 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 3: pr at that time, which was a fun and exciting 509 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 3: challenge as well. But you know, you have a season 510 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 3: like that no matter what your role is, and it's magic. 511 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,719 Speaker 3: It's like this magic carpet ride that you know. In 512 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 3: those seasons with the Red Sox, you went into spring 513 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 3: training thinking it was very possible you could do something 514 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 3: like that, but appreciating how hard it is to do 515 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 3: something like that. If you remember, in two thousand and three, 516 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 3: which was my first year in Boston, the Red Sox 517 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 3: lost Game seven of the ALCS and Aaron doing home 518 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 3: run the walkoff shot next yr innings off Tim Wakefield. 519 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 3: So you go from that low at Yankee Stadium to 520 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 3: then into two thousand and four hoping for bigger and 521 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 3: better things, then falling behind the Yankees three games to 522 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 3: none in the ALCS, and no team in history had 523 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,159 Speaker 3: before has since come back and won a series in 524 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 3: the playoffs. After losing the first three, Red Sox came back, 525 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 3: won the next four in a row, and then went 526 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 3: into Saint Louis against a really good Cardinals team. People 527 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 3: forget this. All everybody remembers is the Alcs. But the 528 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 3: remember the Yankees won a dramatic Alcs from the Red 529 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 3: Sox in three, then laid an egg in the World 530 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 3: Series against the Marlins, and you know, so for the 531 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 3: Red Sox to go out and do what they did 532 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 3: against the Cardinals in October two thousand and four, to 533 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 3: lead in every inning of every game they never trailed 534 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 3: in that World Series, and sweeping Saint Louis, a good 535 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 3: Cardinals team was pretty impressive to follow up to win 536 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 3: against the Yankees and Alcs. But for anybody in baseball, 537 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 3: that's what the dream is, and that's why you do this. 538 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 3: To have a season like that where everything comes together 539 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 3: and you think about the excitement of a Dela Cruz 540 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 3: walkoff hit or a Bridgey walk off home run. Then 541 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 3: you put it on the bigger stage and in a 542 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 3: packed Fenway Park or in a pack Yankee Stadium, hopefully 543 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 3: one day in a pack lone depot park. From our 544 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 3: lips to God's Ears one of these years. You know, 545 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 3: it's very special and I'm lucky. I went to the 546 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 3: World Series of the Padres in nineteen ninety eight. They 547 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 3: were swept by the Yankees, that incredible Yankees team that 548 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 3: one hundred and fourteen games in the regular season, and 549 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 3: then yeah, and then one two with the Red Sox 550 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 3: and hope to win one or more here at some 551 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 3: point down the road. I had been to the World 552 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 3: Series in my second year in San Diego and in Boston. 553 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 3: It's gonna take a little bit longer it appears in 554 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 3: Miami as we head into season number fifteen, but one 555 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 3: of these years, got to get back. And it's a blast. 556 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 3: And for you guys to be around it, to be 557 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: covering a team that goes through a magical season like that, 558 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 3: it's a different experience and it's a lot of fun. 559 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 3: And I hope for you guys who've never experienced that 560 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 3: as journalists you get that opportunity. 561 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 7: I wanted to add on to you. You know, you're 562 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,360 Speaker 7: a Miami native, and I kind of want to tie 563 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,199 Speaker 7: in with another person who is considered an icon in 564 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 7: the city of Miami in terms of broadcasting, what are 565 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 7: your experiences with Spanish broadcaster fellow Amir's Rest of the Peace. 566 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 3: Knew Falo well had a tremendous amount of respect for Falo. 567 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,400 Speaker 3: The fact that he did what he did I mean, 568 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 3: you hate to say it, but literally until the day 569 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 3: he died, showed up at the ballpark day after day 570 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 3: after day. And what I loved about Falo was the 571 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 3: rapport he had with the players, and particularly the Latin 572 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 3: players Jose Fernandez as much as anybody, but they looked 573 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 3: out for Falo. They took Falo under their wing, made 574 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 3: sure he had whatever he needed, whether it was on 575 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 3: the charter or in hotels, things like that. Fla was remarkable, 576 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 3: and you know, I can't say I ever listened to 577 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 3: him regularly. I will say this, I was in Cooperstown 578 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 3: when he won the Freak Award, because he won the 579 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 3: Freak Award in I guess it would have been two 580 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 3: thousand and two, which was the year Tony Gwynn was 581 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 3: inducted into the Hall of Fame, and I went back 582 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 3: to Cooperstown to be part of Tony's celebration. I was 583 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 3: with the Red Sox at that point, and so I 584 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 3: was actually in Cooperstown when Phalo received the Freak Award 585 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 3: as well, and it was a privilege to sit right 586 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 3: on the other side of the glass from him all 587 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 3: those years, first of the Old Football Stadium and then 588 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 3: at lone depot and it's really sad what happened, but 589 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 3: he devoted his life to this sport and to the 590 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 3: Marlins and was a heck of a guy. 591 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 7: Thank you, Gunn. 592 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 2: Yeah ahead, Yeah, Glenn. 593 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 8: I had a specific question. There are some broadcasters that 594 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,880 Speaker 8: it feels like they're two different people during the game 595 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 8: because when the home team, when their team does something great, 596 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 8: they get all excited, and when the opposing team does 597 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 8: something positive, they feel like they'd rather be anywhere else. 598 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 8: They get all down on themselves. What is that process 599 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,639 Speaker 8: in your mind as while you're broadcasting game of like 600 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 8: trying to find that balance between being I guess somewhat objective, 601 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 8: between celebrating the positives regardless of what team happens, Like, 602 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 8: how do you process that knowing that you're working directly 603 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,199 Speaker 8: with one team, but there's plenty of incredible plays and 604 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 8: moments that could happen from the other side that are 605 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 8: still worth sharing with the audience and the right way. 606 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 3: That's a good question, and actually it's something we recently 607 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 3: talked about about a week ago in my class, and 608 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 3: I played clips of different styles of broadcasters, the Homers 609 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,719 Speaker 3: like Hawk Harrelson, who God forbid somebody did something good 610 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 3: against the White Sox. He was out for blood, and 611 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 3: when the White Sox did something well, it was a 612 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 3: big deal. I think if somebody listens to me, they 613 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 3: know who signs my paycheck. It's obvious. I get more 614 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 3: excited when the Marlins do something good than when the 615 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 3: other guys do. But at the same time, I like 616 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 3: and respect the game and those who play it, and 617 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 3: I think have a healthy appreciation of how hard this 618 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 3: game is to play that when somebody makes a great 619 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 3: play against the Marlins, there's a certain level of excitement 620 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 3: about that. It's not happiness, but it is excitement. It 621 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,959 Speaker 3: is appreciation for what somebody just did on the baseball 622 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 3: field against your team. Somebody it's three home runs against you, 623 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 3: somebody hits for the cycle against you, somebody throws a 624 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 3: no hitter against you. It's a big deal and you've 625 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 3: got to acknowledge it. So do you celebrat ory happy 626 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 3: about it. No, But I do think that you have 627 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 3: to acknowledge and respect that. And you know, I think 628 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 3: it's just it lends credibility. When you get excited about 629 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 3: what the Marlins do, you kind of have to. For me, 630 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 3: play it both ways. And you can hear a smile 631 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 3: in my voice when the Marlins get a big hit. 632 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 3: You might not hear the same smile when the other 633 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 3: guys do. But a big moment is a big moment, nonetheless, 634 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 3: And it might be a big moment for disappointing reasons 635 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 3: from Marlin's perspective, but it still is a big moment. 636 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, Glenn. 637 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: Just speaking of some of the legends that you've worked with, 638 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:56,639 Speaker 1: I have thought, I know, you guys can't do many 639 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: games together this year, but working with the Hall of 640 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:00,879 Speaker 1: Famer like Dave, just how is that I've had, like, 641 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 1: you know, the privilege of meeting him for the first 642 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: time this year, and his voice in person, Man, it's 643 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: even more mesmerizing than on the air because I've been listening 644 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,239 Speaker 1: for like fifteen years. His voice in person when he's 645 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: getting an ice cream like wow. So, just how is 646 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: someone like Dave van Horn? 647 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 3: It's been a real thrill, a real privileged, real honor. 648 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,399 Speaker 3: I've been lucky. When I was in San Diego, I 649 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 3: work with Jerry Coleman, who won the Frick Award himself. 650 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 3: When I was in Boston, I worked with Jokistiglione, who's 651 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 3: been a finalist for the Frick Award and has to 652 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 3: win it one of these years. But he's a Red 653 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 3: Sox Hall of Famer. It's been the voice of the 654 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 3: Red Sox for more than forty years now. And here 655 00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 3: you mentioned I didn't work a lot of games with 656 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 3: Dave this past year, but I was with Dave every 657 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 3: day for thirteen years and hopefully worked together more in 658 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 3: the future. And it's a thrill and honor. He's such 659 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 3: a professional and he's been doing a long time. This 660 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 3: was his fifty third season, and he's a guy who 661 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 3: puts in the work on a daily basis. You'd think 662 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 3: that you got a great voice, you got a great resume, 663 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 3: you got the Frick Award, done it forever, you can 664 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 3: just kind of rest in your laurels a little bit. 665 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 3: But he puts in the work on a nightly basis. 666 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 3: He's got so many great stories, so much great history 667 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 3: in the game. And the thing that has always stood 668 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 3: out to me about Dave is when we travel to 669 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 3: see the people who come into the booth to pay 670 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 3: tribute to Dave, to see an old friend, somebody they've 671 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 3: known for thirty years or forty years or fifty years, 672 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 3: who it might be a club president, it might be 673 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 3: another broadcaster, it might be one of the guys who 674 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 3: works with the visiting TV crews, one of the photographers, 675 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 3: or one of the audio guys who work with Dave 676 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 3: going back when he was doing TV in Montreal years 677 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 3: and years ago, but has maintained a relationship with him 678 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 3: in a tremendous respect for him all these years. So 679 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 3: it's a thrill and to call Dave a friend. You know, 680 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 3: my most cherished times with the Marlins, and many of 681 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 3: them are an off night on the road on a Saturday. 682 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 3: We go out for dinner, have a great stake somewhere, 683 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 3: you know, do some sight seeing on a day off, 684 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 3: just hanging out with Dave. He's a great partner, a 685 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 3: great colleague, but more than anything, a great friend. And 686 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 3: it's been a real honor and a privilege to work 687 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 3: with them all these years here. 688 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: I know, it's been a privilege to listen to you guys, 689 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: and I know when you guys were working games together, 690 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: it was sort of spread out that he would do 691 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: the first two innings, you get three and four, and 692 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: you know, up until like he would get the ninth. 693 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: How was it like at any times like frustrating where 694 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: there'd be a crazy ninth inning and you were like, 695 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: oh shit, I wish had the ninth inning to write. 696 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 3: You know, it is what it is. You know, we 697 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,719 Speaker 3: divide the innings up and that's fine. And you know, 698 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 3: sometimes the action would be in the eighth inning and 699 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 3: I'd call the big hit in the eighth innings. Sometimes 700 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 3: he'd get in the ninth inning, so theres there'd be 701 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 3: no action for either of us, unfortunately in some games. 702 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 3: But no, it's just the way it is, and that's 703 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 3: the way a lot of booths are set up these days. 704 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 3: It's pretty rare in radio to have a play by 705 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 3: play broadcaster and an analyst. These days, it's usually to 706 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 3: play by play broadcasters to divide the game up, as 707 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 3: Dave and I have over the years. I had done 708 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 3: some work with analysts in San Diego and in Boston 709 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 3: when he did some TV, but you know, it had 710 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 3: always been with Dave here to play by play broadcasters, 711 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 3: and you know, I enjoy that. I love working with Dave, 712 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 3: But like I said, I've also embraced the new reality 713 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 3: that we had here in twenty twenty one. And we'll 714 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 3: see where it all goes to twenty twenty two. 715 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 2: Alex, I know you had some marvelous questions or MLB. 716 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 6: No, I wanted to ask one more before we get 717 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 6: to that. 718 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 3: Isaac. 719 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 6: On the broadcasting front, Glenn, No, you did work before 720 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 6: your work with the Padres, which, by the way, I've 721 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 6: lived in San Diego during those years. So those were 722 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 6: some fun years for the Projets. Probably the best years 723 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 6: ever for the Podcors. 724 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 3: They were they were, yeah. 725 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 6: For sure, but yeah, just on the front of you know, 726 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 6: you're coming up in the business. We know you worked 727 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 6: a while with the Rochester Red Wings. I think it 728 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 6: was like seven years with them, right, So just like 729 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 6: I guess the trials and tribulations that you go through 730 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 6: working for a minor league team that don't have these 731 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 6: grandiose press boxes, sometimes not even air conditioned. 732 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 9: They don't have the food, they don't have, you know, 733 00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 9: everything that MLB has, you know, bus rides, you know, 734 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 9: just just the grind and coming up with a minor 735 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,680 Speaker 9: league team versus you know, the contrast now working as 736 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 9: long as you have for a major league team. 737 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 3: I wouldn't trade a second of my time in Rochester, 738 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 3: and there are days I wish I was back in 739 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 3: Rochester even to this day. That's how much I enjoyed 740 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 3: my years there. I met my wife in Rochester, so 741 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 3: I took something pretty good out of Rochester. To this day, 742 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 3: some of my closest friends are people I worked with 743 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 3: in Rochester during those years, including Josh Lewin, who was 744 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 3: my broadcast partner with Red Wings for part of the 745 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 3: time I was there. Dan Mason, who started with the 746 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 3: Red Wings the day I started, eventually became the general manager, 747 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 3: still the GM there to this day. And it was 748 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 3: a blast, and you're right, it was different. It was 749 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 3: a grind, but it was all I knew. I was 750 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 3: just out of college. I literally graduated from Northwestern a 751 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 3: quarter early so I could start with the minor league 752 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 3: baseball team right before opening day and got a job 753 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 3: in unpaid internship in Rochester, New York. Out of the 754 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 3: shoot went from Evanston to Rochester. I'd never stepped foot 755 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 3: in Rochester in my life. All Rochester was to me 756 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 3: was a line on the back of cal Ripken's baseball card. 757 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 3: And made some great friends there, had great times. And 758 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 3: when I started out there, it was a bunch of 759 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 3: young people just out of college. None of us were married, 760 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 3: none of us had girlfriends. We worked twenty four to seven, 761 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 3: and that you didn't think twice about it, and you 762 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 3: loved every minute of it. The big question today was 763 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 3: where were we gonna go for lunch at the middle 764 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 3: of the day, And lunchtime was always a great time 765 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 3: with that group of people. But it was a blast, 766 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 3: and you're right, there were long bus rides we flew 767 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 3: for the most part in internationally. You might have flown 768 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 3: to Richmond, then you bust to Norfolk and then fly 769 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 3: back home from Norfolk. You fly to Columbus, bust to Toledo, 770 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 3: fly home from Toledo. The hotels weren't as nice in 771 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 3: the big leagues, the per diem wasn't as good as 772 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 3: it is in the big leagues, But you know what, 773 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 3: it was all that I knew. And most of the 774 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 3: ballparks I worked in in those years are no longer standing, 775 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 3: and that's really sad to me that old Silver Stadium 776 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 3: in Rochester is gone, and most of the parks in 777 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 3: the ile off in those days are gone. I got 778 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 3: into a couple of the new ones that are still around, 779 00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,719 Speaker 3: but they were great years. And I tell people all 780 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 3: the time, you may think right out of school, you 781 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 3: want to work in the big leagues, but I beg 782 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 3: people to try to start in the minor leagues and 783 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 3: do everything, experience everything, pull tarp, make mascot appearances, which 784 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 3: is how I paid my bills when I was an 785 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,839 Speaker 3: unpaid intern. I got paid twenty five bucks a pop 786 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 3: to make appearances as our w Homer, this giant baseball 787 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 3: that my arm stuck out of, and I wore baseball 788 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 3: pants and Cziga red clown shoes. It was a sight 789 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 3: to behold. I actually a picture of our w Homer 790 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:30,760 Speaker 3: is my screen saver on my iPhone, my background, because 791 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 3: it reminds me of where I came from. And I 792 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 3: wouldn't have traded a minute of those years, except maybe 793 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 3: in the old ballpark in Rochester that had big ramps 794 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,720 Speaker 3: behind the plate for people to get from the ground 795 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 3: level up to the top. When kids realized that if 796 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 3: you hit our w just hard enough and knocked them 797 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 3: off his feet, he could roll down those ramps all 798 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 3: the way till they got to the chain link fence 799 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 3: at the bottom. So I was black and blue for 800 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 3: that intern season back in nineteen ninety. But they were 801 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 3: great memories and I literally would not trade one second. 802 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 3: In the time I was in Rochester, and I'll say this, 803 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 3: I actually had a couple of chances to leave Rochester 804 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 3: for major league PR jobs, and I stayed in Rochester 805 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 3: because I was so happy they're doing what I was doing. 806 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 3: And then finally the right opportunity came along at the 807 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,720 Speaker 3: right time, I left for San Diego. But I recommend 808 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 3: anybody who wants get into baseball start in the minors. 809 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 3: Do everything. Sell advertising. You might not want to sell advertising, 810 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 3: it's part of the experience. Make appearances in the community. 811 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 3: Do all the PR I wrote, the game notes, the 812 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 3: media guide, the yearbook, all the sales brochures. We all 813 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 3: sold advertising. We all pulled tarp when it rained. The 814 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 3: great thing of being the number one radio broadcast when 815 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 3: I was elevated into that role was I'd have to 816 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,879 Speaker 3: stay on the air during rain delays so I didn't 817 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 3: have to pull tarp. And there were some great tart 818 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 3: pulling stories back in those days. But like I said, 819 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 3: I wouldn't trade a second of those years. 820 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:58,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what everybody says. 821 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 6: At the minor league level, it's that team atmosphere. Everybody 822 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,879 Speaker 6: does everything. Whereas major league grace fall you're just doing 823 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 6: one job. But yeah, thank you. 824 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 3: And if you start out, if you come out of 825 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,439 Speaker 3: college and you get an internship in a major league 826 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,479 Speaker 3: PR department, for example, you're gonna do the clips every day. 827 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 3: You're gonna maybe write the minor league report on the 828 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 3: back page of the game notes. You're gonna photocopy the 829 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,400 Speaker 3: game notes. You're gonna pass things out in the press box. 830 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 3: But you're not doing all this stuff. I got to 831 00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 3: do literally days after graduating from college at the minor 832 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 3: league level, and that prepared me to step into the 833 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:30,440 Speaker 3: big league level and do it. 834 00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 2: Wown. 835 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:33,760 Speaker 1: You're just making me want to see the Jumbo Shrimp 836 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,879 Speaker 1: need any help out there in Jack. There's some something 837 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,800 Speaker 1: romantic about minor league baseball for sure. Anyway, there's just 838 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 1: transition to like, you know, twenty twenty two Marlins baseball 839 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: talk here. 840 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 2: I know Kevin has the first question he wants for you. 841 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 3: I've got all the answers. I got all the answers. 842 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, Glenn, you know, when it comes to the off season, 843 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 4: which throughout this rebol, I think this may be the 844 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 4: one that we've been talking about the most just because 845 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 4: of you know, what's on the line here for next season. 846 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 2: And you know, to want the needing of winning. 847 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 4: The Marlins need to win. They want to win. I mean, 848 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 4: what's your ideal off season for the Marlins in twenty 849 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 4: twenty two? 850 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 3: Wow, so you're signing the checks? Not me? All right, 851 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:18,239 Speaker 3: my ideal off season if I could do anything for 852 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 3: this team right now? All right? We got Miggi extended. 853 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 3: We're gonna get Sandy extended. We are gonna sign Carlos Correa. 854 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 3: We're gonna sign Okay, we're gonna sign Nick Castianos. We're 855 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:40,799 Speaker 3: gonna trade for Wilson Contreras. And here's my outside the 856 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 3: box thought. When we signed Correa, we moved Miggi to 857 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 3: second base and try Jazz and center field, which I 858 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 3: don't know. I don't think anybody's talked about that possibility. 859 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 3: You know, I love Jazz's athleticism, I love the speed, 860 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 3: I love the power. There were some issues defensively obviously 861 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 3: for Jazz last year. What does it look like in centerfield? 862 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 3: You know, we talked about needing a center fielder. It 863 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 3: would be great to still have Starling Marte here. I 864 00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:11,120 Speaker 3: look back with a lot of disappointment that, you know, 865 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 3: Marte and Duval had to be traded. Your offseason look 866 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 3: a lot different had they gotten a little bit further 867 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,399 Speaker 3: and been able to keep Marte. And I think you're 868 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 3: gonna look back at that and when you see what 869 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 3: Marte ends up signing for somewhere else, or what it 870 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 3: will cost bringing a Castianos or somebody like that. I 871 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 3: think they could have done better in terms of years 872 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 3: and dollars if they would have gone a little bit 873 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 3: further on Marte in July. You know in Duval, what 874 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 3: are his fortieth home run of the year, last year 875 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 3: regular season or last night regular season and postseason. A 876 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 3: great outfielder, good guy to have on a team. This 877 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 3: was a different team without those two guys. And for me, 878 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:53,919 Speaker 3: I was a big Marte guy, I said on the air, 879 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,799 Speaker 3: and I'll challenge you guys with this question. If you 880 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 3: consider what a player did add as a Marlin period, 881 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 3: not what he did later in his career, but what 882 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 3: a player did as a Marlin, I can only think 883 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 3: of one player who was a better five tool guy 884 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 3: as a Marlin than Charlie Marte. I'll go Hanley Ramirez 885 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 3: in his prime. Those you know, six years of Handley 886 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 3: were elite, elite, but no you know, Christian Yelich as 887 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,360 Speaker 3: a Marlin wasn't the guy he became as a brewer. 888 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 3: There were other guys did it elsewhere who haven't done 889 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 3: it here. But Marte changed this team in a lot 890 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 3: of ways offensively and defensively. And so now you don't 891 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 3: have him, and you gotta do some other things. But 892 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 3: if money was no objective, it was all up to me. 893 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 3: I'm not guaranteeing all that stuff happens, but that's where 894 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 3: I would start, because I think you need to improve 895 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:50,280 Speaker 3: this offense dramatically. It's not simply a matter of assuming, Okay, 896 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 3: Brian Anderson is gonna stay healthy all year and he's 897 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 3: gonna finally put together a full season at the level 898 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 3: we've seen him play at in Spurts, but never over 899 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 3: one sixty two. It's not as easy as saying young 900 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 3: players just get better and better and Hezus Sanchez is 901 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:09,239 Speaker 3: automatically gonna take a big step forward next year, or 902 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 3: Brian de Lacruz is gonna sustain what he did for 903 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 3: a good stretch last year. I think you need to 904 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 3: seriously upgrade this offense. And again I mentioned a trade 905 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,359 Speaker 3: behind the plate, and I would imagine you know, we're 906 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,839 Speaker 3: all kind of looking at this the same way. If 907 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 3: you're talking about building around pitching, primarily, you got to 908 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 3: have that anchor behind the plate. You got to have 909 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 3: a guy and then hopefully you bring him in and 910 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 3: you extend a guy like a contrarist for example. Don't 911 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 3: want to be tampering here, but you ask you for 912 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,799 Speaker 3: my fantasy, and this is it. Uh. You know, you 913 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,480 Speaker 3: need a guy who can navigate your pitchers through games. 914 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 3: It's tough when you know the Marlins went through those 915 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 3: stretches last year where where they felt like Sandy Leon 916 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 3: was the right guy to have behind the plate for 917 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 3: certain pitches. At certain times you knew you weren't gonna 918 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 3: get any offense though, and then five days later, well, 919 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 3: you can't run layone out there all the time, so 920 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 3: somebody else has to be back there. 921 00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 5: You gotta find that guy and put leone on the mound. 922 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, the scary thing is what Leon ranked twenty 923 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 3: fifth of the team in appearance is pitching wise this year. 924 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 3: That didn't bode well. But you know, they gotta find 925 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:17,279 Speaker 3: an impact player behind the player, and that's a hard 926 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 3: thing to do because there are no free agents out there. 927 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 3: You know, unless Buster Posey gets the free agency, and 928 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 3: I don't see that happening, you know, So for me, 929 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 3: that position is so important in so many ways. When 930 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 3: you talk about building with pitching, and this team needs 931 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 3: a lot more offense. They just you can't lose the 932 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 3: kind of games they lost when Sandial Contra pitched this 933 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 3: past season as often as they did. And you can't 934 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,360 Speaker 3: lose all these three to two games and four to 935 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:48,879 Speaker 3: three games. You gotta be able to win a game 936 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 3: eight to seven at some point. You can't fall behind 937 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 3: three nothing in the second and know the game's essentially 938 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 3: over night after night. And so they got to dramatically 939 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:00,919 Speaker 3: upgrade the offense, and you know, I think that's where 940 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 3: your money goes. You don't have to spend a ton 941 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 3: on adding to the pitching. Maybe you tweak the bullpen 942 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 3: a little bit, but the nucleus of a really good 943 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,319 Speaker 3: pitching staff is in place, and you've got some more 944 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,880 Speaker 3: arms coming up in the upper levels of the miners 945 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 3: who aren't that far off. So if I could do anything, 946 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 3: that's what I would do this offseason. 947 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 1: What do you think, Well, hey, the jazz thing and 948 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 1: center field, it's not too far fetch because hey, they 949 00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: put that teath out in center field, so if you 950 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: know what, if you can do it and Jazz has 951 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: the speed definitely to cover that. 952 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 3: Ground athleticism, and I'd like to see what that looks like. 953 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: Because centerfielders are going to be tough to come back 954 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 1: and say they want to go for Brian Reynolds. That's 955 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 1: gonna cost top their farm system if they want to 956 00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 1: go after Soling Marte or it's gonna be expensive. So 957 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: that's not a horrible option. Really, I wonder if that's 958 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 1: something that they would consider. No, No, you have a question. 959 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 3: Another thought I'll throw out there also is for me, 960 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 3: I said this very late in the season on the air. 961 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 3: To me, when you say, okay, they need a couple 962 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 3: outfielders need to catcher, to me, if you're going to 963 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 3: really upgrade this offense, you're going to need to make 964 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:01,439 Speaker 3: a move somewhere where people aren't anticipating you making a move. 965 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 3: And what I mean by that, because well, you're all 966 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,920 Speaker 3: set with Migi at short You're also with Brian Anderson 967 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 3: at third base. You're all set with whether it's Leywin 968 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 3: or agi Lar at first base or DH. However, you 969 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 3: do that to me, there's another move there somewhere, and 970 00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 3: I'll throw this one out there. At this point, I 971 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 3: wouldn't rule out the possibility, not that anyone said they're 972 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,240 Speaker 3: gonna do this, but I'll throw this out there for conversation. 973 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,840 Speaker 3: What about putting Brian Anderson back in the outfield if 974 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 3: you're down an outfielder. Maybe he helped that shoulder by 975 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 3: not having him playing third base every day and the 976 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 3: diving at third base that you got to do on 977 00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:35,880 Speaker 3: a regular basis, because he was a game changer defensively 978 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 3: in the outfield and we saw him out there. He 979 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 3: was also a game changer defensively at third base. And 980 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 3: as you guys know as well as anybody that talks always, well, 981 00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:44,319 Speaker 3: they got all these outfielders coming, but there's not a 982 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,920 Speaker 3: third base right behind them. If you can find somebody 983 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,239 Speaker 3: else to play third base, I wouldn't out putting Brian 984 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 3: back in right field. With the arm that he has, 985 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 3: the way he played out there, I think you got 986 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 3: to get creative, and those are a couple of ways 987 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 3: to maybe think outside the box. 988 00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny that you say that, because when 989 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:02,960 Speaker 1: Brian Anderson was playing right field pretty consistently in twenty nineteen. 990 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 1: I was just so against it because this guy's gonna 991 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 1: get injured. He injured his fingers on that netting in 992 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: the outfield. Now a third base with his shoulder surgery, 993 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 1: outfield might should be a viable option for sure. 994 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 2: You know, but Noah, I know you have your question. 995 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 5: So other than winning, which is a big other, then 996 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:25,360 Speaker 5: how do you think that the organization could go about 997 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 5: putting fans in the stands getting more people to come 998 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 5: to games. Yeah? 999 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 3: I don't think there is an other than And the 1000 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 3: reason I say that is because you look at all 1001 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 3: they have done over the last four seasons. They've done 1002 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:40,760 Speaker 3: so many great things in the ballpark itself to enhance 1003 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 3: the ballpark, to enhance the ballpark experience for fans. They've 1004 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 3: gotten so invested, so involved in the community. They've said 1005 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 3: and done all the right things, and you haven't seen 1006 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 3: the needle move very much. I would have loved to 1007 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 3: have seen what the ballpark would look like down the 1008 00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 3: stretch in twenty twenty with a team fighting for playoffs 1009 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,879 Speaker 3: and earning a playoff spot. Would you've had twenty five 1010 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 3: thirty thousand people a night. I don't know the answer 1011 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 3: to that. I'd like to think you would have. I 1012 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 3: don't know, but I think it is gonna take winning 1013 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 3: at this one. That's the only thing they haven't done. 1014 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,959 Speaker 3: They've tried everything else. They've done everything else. They've done 1015 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 3: everything they said they were going to do when they 1016 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 3: came in in the community with the ballpark for the 1017 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:24,759 Speaker 3: fan experience and discounting concessions and doing different things like that. 1018 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 3: I think you got to win. And the question that 1019 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 3: becomes is winning once enough or with all the history 1020 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 3: and all the water under the bridge here, do you 1021 00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 3: have to win two times or three times or four 1022 00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:41,719 Speaker 3: years out of five? And what is winning mean? Does 1023 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,760 Speaker 3: winning mean winning the World Series? Does winning mean getting 1024 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 3: a wild card and losing in the Division Series? What 1025 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:53,240 Speaker 3: is winning mean? But you know, you go back. They've 1026 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,080 Speaker 3: over the years, and this even going back to when 1027 00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,839 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Laurier owned the team. They've taken away every excuse 1028 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 3: that people had to not come to games. They hated 1029 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:06,879 Speaker 3: the rain and the heat at the football stadium. Well 1030 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,760 Speaker 3: you got a new ballpark now with a retractable roof. 1031 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,280 Speaker 3: They never signed their core players, Well, they gave Stanton 1032 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:16,640 Speaker 3: the biggest contract in history. They need more Cuban Stars. Well, 1033 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 3: they had Jose Fernandez here. You know, they gave yell 1034 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 3: At an extension. They gave a lot of guys, Dee 1035 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,880 Speaker 3: Gordon over the years. You know, they spend some money 1036 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:29,920 Speaker 3: under Jeffrey's ownership. They've got the ballpark now, and the 1037 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,240 Speaker 3: only thing they haven't done, whether it's under that ownership 1038 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 3: group in the latter years or this ownership group so far, 1039 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 3: is they haven't won. And they got to win. And 1040 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,520 Speaker 3: at that point it's up to people to put up 1041 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 3: or shut up, because you know, people have said, well, 1042 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 3: when Jeffrey sells the team, I'm buying season tickets. You 1043 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 3: know what, not many of those people bought season tickets 1044 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 3: and Jeffrey sold the team. You couldn't have asked for 1045 00:46:48,360 --> 00:46:50,879 Speaker 3: a better face to come in and a better name 1046 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 3: and a better track record than Derek Jeter. But people 1047 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 3: didn't jump on the vandwagon on day one. And I 1048 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 3: understand that. As they said in that initial press conference, 1049 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:02,440 Speaker 3: we're gonna make some very tough and unpopular decisions, and 1050 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 3: they did. But now and again, you know, I'm preaching 1051 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 3: to the choir here. I feel like you guys understand 1052 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,280 Speaker 3: what they've done with the farm system in recent years 1053 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 3: and the value they got in some of those trades 1054 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 3: that everybody hated to make but had to be made 1055 00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,439 Speaker 3: because that group of guys was together for a long 1056 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,400 Speaker 3: time and Forget didn't win, never even finished five hundred 1057 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 3: when you had all those guys together. And we can 1058 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 3: talk for hours about what Jose's passing meant to the 1059 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 3: trajectory of the franchise and how that changed everything. But 1060 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:34,839 Speaker 3: that's a conversation that's been had many times. But you know, 1061 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 3: now it's time for these guys that they've drafted a 1062 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 3: choir to really step up, as Sandy has, as Trevor Rodgers, 1063 00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 3: who was from the old regime, but but as Trevor 1064 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 3: Rodgers has, you got to see some of this young 1065 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 3: talent come up and make a huge impact. And you know, 1066 00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 3: Derek said, we're going to be active, We're gonna be 1067 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 3: aggressive this offseason, and now, you know, we'll see how 1068 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 3: that plays out, and hopefully they can excite the fan 1069 00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:58,600 Speaker 3: base with the moves they make and get off to 1070 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 3: a great start in twenty twenty two. It's not gonna 1071 00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 3: be easy when you look at the schedule, including the 1072 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 3: Braves right off the bat next year, but you know, 1073 00:48:06,160 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 3: let's see, I don't think there is noah and other 1074 00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 3: than at this point, it's you gotta win. And then 1075 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 3: the question is is winning enough or how much winning 1076 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 3: will it take? And I'm not smart enough to know 1077 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:21,319 Speaker 3: the answer that question yet. 1078 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,800 Speaker 5: Craignish, when he was on the live stream a couple 1079 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 5: months ago, he put forth an idea of letting in 1080 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,839 Speaker 5: kids for free. What do you think about that? 1081 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 3: I love it. I mean, it's not my money, you know. 1082 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 3: I feel like, hey, if you bring a kid in 1083 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 3: for free, he's gonna bring mom or dad with him 1084 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 3: or her. They're gonna buy a concession, They're gonna pay 1085 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 3: for parking. I get that. You know, the issue with 1086 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:51,799 Speaker 3: free tickets from a former front office perspective, I've sat 1087 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 3: in on marketing meetings and planning meetings and in San 1088 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 3: Diego when we had to really work hard to sell tickets. 1089 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,719 Speaker 3: It was easier to sell tickets at Fenway Park when 1090 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:02,840 Speaker 3: I was there. But you know, when you start giving 1091 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,160 Speaker 3: free tickets to what we're doing is you're devaluing your 1092 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 3: season ticket And the lifeblood of this franchise is that 1093 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 3: core of season ticket holders. Some of them have been 1094 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 3: with the Marlins since nineteen ninety three. God bless those 1095 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 3: people with all that they've been through. And any time 1096 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 3: I speak at at a Marlins member event, you know, 1097 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:26,160 Speaker 3: I can't thank those people enough. I can't praise them enough. 1098 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,040 Speaker 3: So when you start giving a lot of free tickets, way, 1099 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 3: one thing you're doing is you're devaluing what your season 1100 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:34,640 Speaker 3: ticket members have invested in this team. But you know, 1101 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:37,480 Speaker 3: I'm all for that. Or on Sundays, on certain days, 1102 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,120 Speaker 3: there are seats that are sitting empty that you might 1103 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:43,560 Speaker 3: as well put somebody in. And I've always been somebody 1104 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 3: feels like, hey, let's bring somebody out for the first time. 1105 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,439 Speaker 3: Maybe they haven't seen a game, and you know, let's 1106 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 3: expose people to the product and hopefully they have a 1107 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 3: good time. They want to come back. But I think 1108 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 3: what helps people have a good time at a ballgame 1109 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 3: is seeing the team win. And so to go back 1110 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 3: where we started here knows it's all I'm put in 1111 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,359 Speaker 3: the winning team on the field and we can talk 1112 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 3: about all these improvements we'd love to see this offseason 1113 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,919 Speaker 3: and down the line. But here's the thing that people 1114 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 3: often forget. You don't operate in a vacuum here and 1115 00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 3: you got a big hole to climb out of to 1116 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 3: begin with, and the Braves aren't standing still, and the 1117 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,760 Speaker 3: Mets aren't standing still, and the Phillies aren't standing still. 1118 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,360 Speaker 3: And you know, the Nationals are going to build it 1119 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 3: back up a lot quicker than many people might think, 1120 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:28,920 Speaker 3: so you're not operating to vacuum. It's not going to 1121 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:30,960 Speaker 3: be easy to get this team to where you want 1122 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:32,879 Speaker 3: to get it. And that's why we talk of making 1123 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 3: some bold steps and whatever you can do to bring 1124 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 3: people in to expose to the product. I'm all for. 1125 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:43,799 Speaker 3: It's not my money, but one way or another, you know, 1126 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 3: you'd like to think you've got a winning product in 1127 00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,240 Speaker 3: the field and people will support this team once it 1128 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 3: starts winning consistently. 1129 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1130 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 1: No, it's definitely not our money, and I definitely think 1131 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 1: they need to be more creative when it comes to 1132 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 1: just finding ways so you know, put butts in those seats. 1133 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:57,600 Speaker 1: But you know, I'm gonna put you a bit on 1134 00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:00,080 Speaker 1: the spot here, Glenn, A quick question on this. This 1135 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 1: is year five coming up now on Derek Jeters. You know, 1136 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 1: ten years, the last year of his contract. How would 1137 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 1: you grade it so far? I know there's that one 1138 00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,520 Speaker 1: playoff appearance. The other three years, they've been a combined 1139 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: who knows how many games under five hundred, with what 1140 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 1: they've done in the community, with what they've done with 1141 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 1: the farm system, the major league team overall, what would 1142 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 1: be your grade for the Derek Jeter. 1143 00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go back to Noah's I'm gonna say other 1144 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:21,919 Speaker 3: than winning, Other than winning at the big league level. 1145 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 3: You know, they've done everything they said they were gonna do. 1146 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,840 Speaker 3: They laid out this plan, and again I'll say, you 1147 00:51:28,920 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 3: guys know better than anybody how they have rebuilt this 1148 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 3: farm system, what it looked like five years ago, what 1149 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,239 Speaker 3: it looks like today, and you're beginning to see those 1150 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:39,719 Speaker 3: players make an impact of the big league level. So, yes, 1151 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 3: you have the one playoff appearance. Off the field, I 1152 00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:48,880 Speaker 3: feel they've hit a Grand Slam. And you know, nobody 1153 00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 3: put a timetable in anything. Nobody expected to take a decade. 1154 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 3: You know, maybe five years is about the right number 1155 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 3: of years when you essentially start from scratch as they 1156 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 3: did on the field. That might be an easier question 1157 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 3: to answer after this season. Let's see what they do 1158 00:52:04,640 --> 00:52:06,600 Speaker 3: this offseason when they've talked about for the first time 1159 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 3: our group is gonna be aggressive in trying to make 1160 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,480 Speaker 3: some moves in the winter. Let's see how that plays out. 1161 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go incomplete, I guess, since he put 1162 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 3: me on the spot. But again, off the field, they've 1163 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 3: done everything said they were gonna do, and I think 1164 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,880 Speaker 3: they've done even more than you might have anticipated with 1165 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:28,440 Speaker 3: the ballpark, with the fan experience, certainly, the amount of 1166 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:31,400 Speaker 3: talent they brought into the organization. They've transformed the minor leagues. 1167 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,560 Speaker 3: But at some point, you got to win in the 1168 00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 3: big leagues and you got to do that consistently. And 1169 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 3: that's the final hurdle. And believe me, as frustrated as 1170 00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 3: I am, and as you guys are, and as people 1171 00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 3: watching this are, Derek is that times one hundred, because 1172 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 3: y'all know the background he comes from, and when people 1173 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 3: have questioned Derek to me in the past, I've always 1174 00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:56,440 Speaker 3: used the line, this guy hasn't lost anything in his life. 1175 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 3: He didn't come here to get his butt kicked. And 1176 00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:01,319 Speaker 3: you know, this is driving insane and you know how 1177 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 3: frustrating it is for him. And you know, I think 1178 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,880 Speaker 3: this offseason is gonna be really interesting. Let's see how 1179 00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 3: it plays out. And let's see what happens in twenty 1180 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 3: twenty two. I do feel like off the field they've 1181 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:14,960 Speaker 3: done everything right, and now on the field, it's really 1182 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 3: time to start putting the finishing touches on the product 1183 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,240 Speaker 3: here and hopefully win some games in a hurry. 1184 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:23,960 Speaker 2: You know, I'm with you, Glenn. 1185 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:25,919 Speaker 1: I guess the one you know, off the field they've 1186 00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:27,799 Speaker 1: been fantastic. I guess the one thing where we can 1187 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 1: maybe just like question a little bit at this point 1188 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 1: is that first year that they bought the other team 1189 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:33,840 Speaker 1: in late twenty seventeen. 1190 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,239 Speaker 2: They told us they're gonna make on popular decisions. But 1191 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,279 Speaker 2: was it the smartest thing to absolutely clean up? 1192 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 1: I know, baseball wise, it definitely was the smart thing 1193 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,600 Speaker 1: to do to trade Jon Carlo Tradeo's doing, to trade Yelich. 1194 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,080 Speaker 1: But you know, from a fans perspective, this new guy 1195 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:47,840 Speaker 1: comes in here, Derek Jeter and trades everyone. 1196 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 2: Was that the best thing to do? 1197 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 3: You know? 1198 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 2: Fan perspective wise. 1199 00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 3: Well, were fans happy with those guys going seventy five 1200 00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 3: and eighty seven every year? They know what I mean? 1201 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 2: They saw an MVP Calibra season from most. 1202 00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 3: Were they were, they were they packing the ballpark. When 1203 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 3: those guys were here, they were so it's easy to 1204 00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 3: complain about it, But where were you when these guys 1205 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 3: were here? Uh? I know where you guys were. You 1206 00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 3: guys were supporting the team, but but in general, where 1207 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 3: were people when all those guys were here. I think 1208 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 3: back to the final weekend of twenty seventeen when gian 1209 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 3: Carlo hit his fifty ninth home run on Friday night 1210 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 3: and had Saturday and Sunday and pursued a six I 1211 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 3: think we're gonna have huge crowds at the ballpark. Where 1212 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:32,840 Speaker 3: were these you know, he didn't have huge crowds those days. 1213 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 3: You know, I hate to even say this, but if 1214 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,959 Speaker 3: you go back and look at the numbers, a lot 1215 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,080 Speaker 3: of the talk about how Jose Fernandez packed people in 1216 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 3: is kind of, you know, looking at things through rose 1217 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,839 Speaker 3: colored glasses. You know, he pitched on some opening days, 1218 00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 3: he pitched on some Saturday nights, had some big crowds, 1219 00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:51,719 Speaker 3: and was there a little bit of a bump rose. Yeah, 1220 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,640 Speaker 3: there was a little bit of a bump rose. But 1221 00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 3: he didn't pitch in front of back ballparks at at 1222 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 3: Lone Depot Park over the years. As much as people 1223 00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:00,759 Speaker 3: loved Jose and as much as people so and as 1224 00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 3: brilliant as he was. So, you know, and the other 1225 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 3: thing I'll say about the moves they made. Remember they 1226 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 3: kept real Muto for a year, and they tried, they 1227 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 3: tried to keep real Muto and to build around real Muto. 1228 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:14,640 Speaker 3: And you look at how things have played out, and 1229 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 3: what's the toughest position on the field to fill a 1230 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,799 Speaker 3: hole at right now? That's it. And that guy was 1231 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 3: here and they tried and it wasn't gonna get done, 1232 00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 3: and so they eventually had to trade him. Uh So 1233 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:31,000 Speaker 3: you know, it is what it is. You look at 1234 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 3: the Ozuna trade now four years later. I'd make that 1235 00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:37,880 Speaker 3: trade again tomorrow, There's no question about that. You know, 1236 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,920 Speaker 3: ask Yankees fans would they like to have the Stanton 1237 00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:43,120 Speaker 3: trade back? I met most Yankees fans today wish they 1238 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 3: hadn't made that deal. I might be wrong, but that's 1239 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,080 Speaker 3: my guess on that. And you think about where this 1240 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 3: franchise will be right now if it was still paying Stanton. 1241 00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,040 Speaker 3: You know, Yelich went On had a couple of great 1242 00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:57,240 Speaker 3: years in Milwaukee, a couple of not so great years 1243 00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:01,439 Speaker 3: since Uh, you know, Azuna had the brilliant year last year, 1244 00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 3: Ozuna was a guy I know just in my personal 1245 00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:07,840 Speaker 3: interactions who really wanted to be here and might have 1246 00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:09,719 Speaker 3: been a guy to stay here and take a little 1247 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 3: bit less money to stay here. But you know, look 1248 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,719 Speaker 3: at things the way they played out for him at 1249 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:19,120 Speaker 3: this point, and you know, and the way that trades 1250 00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:21,880 Speaker 3: worked out for the Marlins, I think you'd make that 1251 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 3: trade again. So you know, we are where we are. 1252 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,759 Speaker 3: And now what you need is for JJ Blade to 1253 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,920 Speaker 3: build on his strong September and his nice start in Arizona. 1254 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,320 Speaker 3: And need to get Max Meyer to the big leagues. 1255 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,600 Speaker 3: And you need to get Jake Eder healthy, and you 1256 00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 3: need to keep Pablo Lopez healthy and Trevor Rodgers and 1257 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:42,600 Speaker 3: Sandi al Contra and let's see Leywin Diaz and he's 1258 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 3: Dow Sanchez breakout, and let's see Miggy b Miggy and 1259 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:48,680 Speaker 3: let's you know, hopefully have a healthy Brian Anderson and 1260 00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 3: then build around those guys because you've got the beginning 1261 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 3: of a championship caliber corp. You've got the beginning of it. 1262 00:56:57,560 --> 00:56:59,799 Speaker 3: You still have a long way to go, and some 1263 00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:02,799 Speaker 3: of the answers are in this organization right now. But 1264 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 3: you know, see how this offseason plays out. 1265 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 1: You know, Kevin and I discussed a lot of those 1266 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,319 Speaker 1: trades on fish Stripes Unfiltered and just that standing one 1267 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:12,320 Speaker 1: that you mentioned, because that turned into yeah. 1268 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 3: Though you don't want to Jim indirectly out of that tree. 1269 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: It turned into jas chislm and it turned into Sandy 1270 00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 1: your ace and you're also you know, also caliber second basement. 1271 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 1: And we're almost wrapping up in an hour, so I 1272 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:22,360 Speaker 1: think we have one or two more questions, if that's 1273 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:23,880 Speaker 1: okay with you, Glenn, Alex. 1274 00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 3: No where to go. 1275 00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:28,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, So we've mentioned in trades and you mentioned past trades. 1276 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:30,960 Speaker 3: You know that was you know, Mike Hilaria. Now we're 1277 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 3: in Kim hang aera. 1278 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 6: You got the first first year under the belt for Kim, 1279 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:37,720 Speaker 6: and you know you mentioned about Derek Jeter knowing winning, 1280 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 6: and Kim is in that same position that she's worked 1281 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:44,320 Speaker 6: for a lot of successful teams and bigger markets and 1282 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 6: now here she is in South Florida, which is neither 1283 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:50,160 Speaker 6: one of those things right now. Saved last season, But yeah, 1284 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 6: I guess you can. I can kind of relate it 1285 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:54,840 Speaker 6: to what Isaac asked about Jeter a grade for her, 1286 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 6: I guess because you saw a little bit of good. 1287 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,440 Speaker 6: Obviously they won the Yammy Garcia trade, and and you 1288 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 6: see the bad in the Duval trade, which happened at 1289 00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 6: the last minute. It was kind of thrown together. They 1290 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:08,840 Speaker 6: had already acquired I think Peyton Henry, and now they 1291 00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 6: get Alex Jackson, who unfortunately hasn't worked out, and Duval 1292 00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,280 Speaker 6: I think could have been had even if he declined 1293 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 6: the mutual option under arbitration. So it seemed kind of 1294 00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:18,440 Speaker 6: like a throwaway trade to me. 1295 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:28,000 Speaker 3: So that one is, yeah, I think you know, you 1296 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,360 Speaker 3: look at the Duval trade. If you were bringing back 1297 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 3: that guy behind the plate, I think you can understand 1298 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,480 Speaker 3: the Duval trade. But when you bring back a guy 1299 00:58:37,520 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 3: who not only struggled as Jackson did, but you know, 1300 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:42,960 Speaker 3: Kim herself even said, you know, we're looking at Jackson 1301 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:44,960 Speaker 3: to see if he can be a backup catcher next year. 1302 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:49,960 Speaker 3: To trade Duval to a division rival for a guy 1303 00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 3: who might be your backup catcher next year, that's that's 1304 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 3: a tough one to swallow. There's I think, you know, 1305 00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,920 Speaker 3: no question about that one. I was a big Duval fan, 1306 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 3: and obviously Duval struck got a lot was not a 1307 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 3: high average guy. But this team needed some power, and 1308 00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 3: he provided power. He was a winning type player, a 1309 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 3: great defensive outfielder. You know. I had known that he 1310 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:13,320 Speaker 3: had been a Gold Glove finalist, and we'd seen him 1311 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,040 Speaker 3: make some nice plays over therese But until you watch 1312 00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 3: Duval in the outfield every day, I had no idea 1313 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 3: how good an outfielder he was, how good that arm was, 1314 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:21,560 Speaker 3: and even in center field he more than held his own. 1315 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,920 Speaker 3: So that opened up another hole when you traded Duval 1316 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 3: away and for this team desperate for power, you know, 1317 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 3: and when you talk about adding offense, this team that 1318 00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:36,160 Speaker 3: got to the playoffs in twenty twenty, that was able 1319 00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 3: to win those one run games, won the bulk of 1320 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 3: those close games. Remember that was maybe like a number 1321 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:46,280 Speaker 3: twenty type major league offense statistically. There's a big jump 1322 00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 3: from being twenty eight twenty nine to thirty offensively, where 1323 00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:52,200 Speaker 3: they were this past year and where they have been 1324 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 3: most recent years, to even number twenty where they were 1325 00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty. And you know, those couple extra runs 1326 00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 3: every now and then, win those one run games, and 1327 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 3: you know you don't need to lead the major leagues 1328 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:08,439 Speaker 3: in run scored. With the pitching, the Marlins seem to have, 1329 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,880 Speaker 3: but they've got to be better offensively at multiple positions, 1330 01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 3: and you know, the Duval trade hurts in that regard, 1331 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 3: There's no question about that. But I think it's hard, 1332 01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,880 Speaker 3: you know, to really evaluate a general manager based on 1333 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 3: one season. We got to give her time. There are 1334 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,920 Speaker 3: a lot of smart people in this organization, some who holdovers, 1335 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:30,080 Speaker 3: many new faces either with dj Sphilick has done with 1336 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:32,960 Speaker 3: Gary Denbo's done since they came over. And there are 1337 01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,240 Speaker 3: a lot of very smart people here making what you 1338 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,200 Speaker 3: hope will be a lot of really good decisions. But 1339 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:41,000 Speaker 3: you just you can't grade decisions based on a season 1340 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:43,280 Speaker 3: or part of a season. And we'll see how it 1341 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,880 Speaker 3: plays out. You know, It's fair to point out a 1342 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:48,240 Speaker 3: lot of these decisions now are four years old, going 1343 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 3: into a fifth season, so you can grade those, and 1344 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 3: we've talked about a lot of those. But it's gonna 1345 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:55,640 Speaker 3: be interesting. I can't wait to see how this offseason 1346 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 3: plays out. And then I'll throw this, you know, curveball 1347 01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:01,360 Speaker 3: at you. Now you got the possibility of a labor 1348 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:05,439 Speaker 3: situation and what does that do to everybody? How does 1349 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 3: that affect free agency? How does that effect making trades? 1350 01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:11,080 Speaker 3: Will there be a freeze if there's a lockout or 1351 01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:14,200 Speaker 3: a strike that's called I guess the best thing you 1352 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,560 Speaker 3: can say in that regard. I asked Derek that question 1353 01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 3: when he was out with us the final day of 1354 01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 3: the season, with all the uncertainty, How does an impact 1355 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:22,960 Speaker 3: what you do this winner? He said, Look, it's gonna 1356 01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 3: impact all thirty teams the exact same way. When the 1357 01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 3: time comes, we're gonna go to work, and we're gonna 1358 01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 3: work until they tell us we have to stop working. 1359 01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:33,080 Speaker 3: And when you start again, you start again. Hopefully you 1360 01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:36,160 Speaker 3: don't get to a labor situation. That's the lasting baseball needs. 1361 01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:39,640 Speaker 3: It's the last of misfranchise needs right now, the thought 1362 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:43,280 Speaker 3: of losing any time in twenty twenty two. But that's 1363 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 3: another thing that complicates this offseason. How aggressive will teams 1364 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 3: be as soon as free agency begins? Will players want 1365 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 3: to sign quickly and make sure that they've got a 1366 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:57,400 Speaker 3: job before you get into the uncertainty? Will players want 1367 01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:00,520 Speaker 3: to wait? We'll owners want to lock guys in quickly? 1368 01:02:00,560 --> 01:02:04,040 Speaker 3: Will owners want to wait? Will MLB dictate what teams 1369 01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 3: should do? Well? The Players Association dictate what players should do? 1370 01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 3: There's a lot of uncertainty out there, and the sooner 1371 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 3: you get resolution on this, the better for everybody. Yeah. 1372 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 1: No, there's a picture of Rob Manford with Will Clark, 1373 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:18,240 Speaker 1: the president of the Players and Players Association, had the 1374 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 1: World Series and just like it's just such a hope 1375 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,560 Speaker 1: that this gets resolved because the last thing we need, 1376 01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 1: like you said, Glenn, after a twenty twenty short season, 1377 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:26,520 Speaker 1: the last thing we need is anymore miss time for 1378 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:27,520 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. 1379 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 2: But John, I think has one more question. 1380 01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 7: Hiy, Glenn, were I want to touch a bit on 1381 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:37,480 Speaker 7: the bullpen. You know, Kim wanted to strengthen that bullpen 1382 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:41,760 Speaker 7: a bit more. We saw guys like Steven Okert, Zach Popp, 1383 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 7: Anthony Bender was spectacular. Who do you think is going 1384 01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:47,400 Speaker 7: to fill in that closer rule? Do you think Anthony 1385 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 7: Baskt is another shot or do you think we're going 1386 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:50,240 Speaker 7: for someone else? 1387 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 3: Sinstant question because you look at the impact Anthony Bender 1388 01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:59,320 Speaker 3: made and he got our attention literally the first time 1389 01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 3: we saw him in spret training and was really impressive 1390 01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:04,880 Speaker 3: of all year. I made the point down this stretch 1391 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 3: multiple times. If you think Anthony Bender, maybe you're closer 1392 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:10,479 Speaker 3: an opening day next year, let's see him close games 1393 01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:13,400 Speaker 3: out in September. We didn't see that, which leads me 1394 01:03:13,440 --> 01:03:15,360 Speaker 3: to believe maybe they don't see Anthony Bender as their 1395 01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 3: closer to start next season. You know, could Dylan Floral 1396 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 3: fill that role for a while. You know, he did 1397 01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:26,000 Speaker 3: a serviceable job. It's an interesting question because do you 1398 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 3: go out and bring in an established closer. You know, 1399 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 3: we saw what happen with the heath Beell disaster in 1400 01:03:32,080 --> 01:03:35,800 Speaker 3: twenty twelve. To me, that's a position when when you're 1401 01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:38,800 Speaker 3: ready to win right now and the last thing you 1402 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,280 Speaker 3: need is that guy to lockdown the ninth inning. Maybe 1403 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:44,800 Speaker 3: you go out and you spend money there. But you know, 1404 01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 3: I feel like they can find an answer. You know, 1405 01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:49,480 Speaker 3: Brandon Kinser did a really nice job two years ago 1406 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:52,840 Speaker 3: for a year. You look at Marlin's history, They've had 1407 01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:54,320 Speaker 3: a lot of guys who for one year at a 1408 01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:58,240 Speaker 3: time did a real nice job as the closer. We 1409 01:03:58,280 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 3: can find that guy, yeah, aj Ram, you know you 1410 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:02,320 Speaker 3: went through this stretch where where you had the the 1411 01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:07,920 Speaker 3: Alfonseekas and the Benitezes and some guys like that. Todd Jones. 1412 01:04:08,040 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 3: This is going back a little bit further for a 1413 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 3: year or two at a time. Steve seeshek did a 1414 01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:13,520 Speaker 3: great job at j Ramos did a great job at 1415 01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:14,040 Speaker 3: one time. 1416 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:16,760 Speaker 2: Was pretty good for a while too. 1417 01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:21,000 Speaker 3: Leon Niaz was good exactly the artist formerly known as 1418 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,920 Speaker 3: Leon Nuniez. So to me, you can find that guy. 1419 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:25,920 Speaker 3: Maybe not find that guy get the less out of 1420 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,240 Speaker 3: the world series, but you can find the guy to 1421 01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:33,360 Speaker 3: get you through twenty twenty two. I think without spending 1422 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,000 Speaker 3: a lot of money, Well, you don't have a ton 1423 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,920 Speaker 3: of money to spend, uh, And we're already asking them 1424 01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:41,880 Speaker 3: to spend on Castianos and Coorea, and to acquire Contraras 1425 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:45,120 Speaker 3: and sign him long term, and to extend Miggie and 1426 01:04:46,200 --> 01:04:49,400 Speaker 3: a Contras. So uh, you know, I don't think that's 1427 01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 3: the top priority finding a dominant closure necessarily in free agency. 1428 01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 3: But but I think they can just load up on 1429 01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:58,480 Speaker 3: as many good arms as possible, and you know, they 1430 01:04:58,480 --> 01:04:59,919 Speaker 3: did a real good job. I think in that regard, 1431 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:02,120 Speaker 3: that's one area where I think Kim deserves very high 1432 01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 3: marks for twenty twenty one in finding some of these guys, 1433 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,080 Speaker 3: Anthony Bender certainly being the top of that list. A. 1434 01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:10,120 Speaker 3: Zach Popp made a lot of progress over the course. 1435 01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 3: Here was a Rule five guy Steven Ochred very quietly, 1436 01:05:12,920 --> 01:05:15,400 Speaker 3: pitched very well for this team. Wasn't the guy anybody 1437 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 3: who was counting on. Anthony Thompson did a really nice 1438 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 3: job for this team as a starter and later pitched 1439 01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 3: and relief. You know, those are guys they plucked out 1440 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:27,600 Speaker 3: on minor league deals in many cases Rule five draft. 1441 01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 3: So to me, you can figure the bullpen out. But 1442 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 3: for me, this offseason is about the offense. It's about 1443 01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:36,520 Speaker 3: finding more bats. 1444 01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 6: Do you think do you think and this is kind 1445 01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:41,680 Speaker 6: of out of nowhere, kind of out of left field, 1446 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 6: do you think that you know, with all the Marlins 1447 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 6: have comings starting pitching wise, and we know that the 1448 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 6: the overall consensus from Jeter and everybody else is that 1449 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:52,520 Speaker 6: they're sticking to the development of prospects, like they really 1450 01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:53,640 Speaker 6: want to develop the prospects. 1451 01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:55,480 Speaker 2: They're committed to it. They've said it many times. 1452 01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 3: Jesus Loerzardo is my question. 1453 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 6: You know, he's gonna get next year probably to see 1454 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:04,440 Speaker 6: if he can still stick in rotation for sure. Past that, 1455 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:08,000 Speaker 6: do you think he could be a potential longer term 1456 01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:09,960 Speaker 6: closer candidate for that role long term? 1457 01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:12,080 Speaker 3: It's an interesting thought, and actually we talked about that 1458 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:13,880 Speaker 3: on the radio. I'm not sure if it was Jper 1459 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 3: Gabby one of them brought up that possibility late in 1460 01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 3: the season. It's an intriguing thought that the scary thing 1461 01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:23,240 Speaker 3: is though with a number of guys he walks, and 1462 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 3: as much as he pitches behind in the count, you 1463 01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:27,360 Speaker 3: hate to see that in the ninth inning. If he 1464 01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:29,720 Speaker 3: can corral that, he's got a chance to be really 1465 01:06:29,720 --> 01:06:33,000 Speaker 3: good starting pitchers he saw at times. You know, for me, 1466 01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 3: he's got to make an impression this spring. I wouldn't 1467 01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,600 Speaker 3: guarantee him a spot in the rotation today, necessarily to 1468 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:42,600 Speaker 3: start next season. We saw a couple of really good starts, 1469 01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:45,360 Speaker 3: saw some very shaky ones out of him. But I'm 1470 01:06:45,480 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 3: encouraged by the work that we've seen from mel Stotdamayer Junior. 1471 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:51,160 Speaker 3: For me, Mel is the most under talked about guy 1472 01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:54,200 Speaker 3: in this organization, a guy more people should be talking about. 1473 01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 3: You look at what he's done with sandialk Contree. You 1474 01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:58,560 Speaker 3: look at the work you did with Trevor Rodgers. Look 1475 01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:01,240 Speaker 3: at Trevor from last year to year. Look at Sandy 1476 01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:03,240 Speaker 3: over the course of his time here, the development that 1477 01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 3: he's had, and other pictures as well. I think Mel's 1478 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 3: gonna go to work with Lozardo and will be as 1479 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:12,840 Speaker 3: soon as spring training twenty twenty two. I don't know 1480 01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:14,760 Speaker 3: that you're gonna see a different guy, but I got 1481 01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:17,600 Speaker 3: a lot of faith in Mel getting Lozardo straightened out, 1482 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,280 Speaker 3: because you see the stuff is there. It's as plain 1483 01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:22,960 Speaker 3: as day. You know, there's been talking about Max Meyer. 1484 01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 3: Could he be a closer down the road potentially? You know, 1485 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:27,920 Speaker 3: at some point you got to make some decisions with 1486 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:31,720 Speaker 3: some of these guys, and it's very possible that answer 1487 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,640 Speaker 3: is internal. And again, it might be Anthony Bender at 1488 01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:37,400 Speaker 3: some point in the not too distant future as well. 1489 01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:40,920 Speaker 3: But for me, that's not the place I'm looking to 1490 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 3: spend a huge amount of money this offseason. 1491 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm definitely with you there, Glenn. I think Kevin 1492 01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:48,200 Speaker 1: has one last question and I think we'll wrap it 1493 01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:48,480 Speaker 1: up up. 1494 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,280 Speaker 2: I may have one final one as well. That's an yeah. 1495 01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,600 Speaker 4: With the starting rotation, Glenn, I mean there's so much 1496 01:07:53,640 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 4: talent up in the majors and in the minors too. 1497 01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 4: You mentioned Max Meyer pretty much dominated Triple Aid this 1498 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:02,000 Speaker 4: secon he entered, I mean put up a career high 1499 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:02,880 Speaker 4: in ks and. 1500 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:03,680 Speaker 2: Then you have other guys there. 1501 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 4: I mean, Jake'terre obviously injured, but maybe in twenty twenty 1502 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 4: three he has an opportunity to be a start. I mean, 1503 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:11,800 Speaker 4: what would your starting rotation look like? And obviously we 1504 01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,560 Speaker 4: have six to who's injured, Dye, who put up a 1505 01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:17,280 Speaker 4: okay time in the major leagues. But I mean, yeah, 1506 01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 4: what's that starting five that you would roll with? 1507 01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, six Dough is for me question number one going 1508 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,680 Speaker 3: into spring training in twenty twenty two, U and I 1509 01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:27,559 Speaker 3: would imagine, just thinking about how they've handled players like 1510 01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 3: that historically, they're gonna be careful with six though probably 1511 01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:34,679 Speaker 3: not rush six Dough. So it may be a stretch 1512 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 3: to think he's in your rotation on opening day. They 1513 01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:39,679 Speaker 3: might want to take it easy and protect his innings 1514 01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 3: and make sure he's entirely healthy. But if you think 1515 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,160 Speaker 3: about at some point the top four that includes a 1516 01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:48,439 Speaker 3: contra Rogers, Lopez and six Dough, that's a pretty good 1517 01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 3: first four. And then if you have a Lozardo or 1518 01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:55,920 Speaker 3: a Max Meyer, or if Cabrera can take that next 1519 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:58,799 Speaker 3: to Cabrera's another guy who's got to go to Mel's 1520 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:01,280 Speaker 3: lab and get to work. You know, there's you see 1521 01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,439 Speaker 3: the stuff, but there's a lot of work to be 1522 01:09:03,479 --> 01:09:06,920 Speaker 3: done there still. You know you can fill in there, 1523 01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:09,280 Speaker 3: and you just, for me, you need to avoid the 1524 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:12,200 Speaker 3: situation this team got into last year where you had 1525 01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:14,439 Speaker 3: for much of the second half you had one starting 1526 01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:17,559 Speaker 3: pitcher in the rotation and you had somebody going too 1527 01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:21,080 Speaker 3: and a third four days a week, and you know, 1528 01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:22,960 Speaker 3: you just you can't do the openers. You got to 1529 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:26,080 Speaker 3: have legitimate starting pitchers, and if people are healthy, this 1530 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:28,639 Speaker 3: team's in a position to have that. But it feels 1531 01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:30,400 Speaker 3: like we say that every spring and we talk about 1532 01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:31,800 Speaker 3: how great the depth is going to be a triple A, 1533 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:34,360 Speaker 3: and boy, this team goes sixteen deep with starting pitchers. 1534 01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:35,840 Speaker 3: We look at these guys that are running out there 1535 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 3: in Jupiter every day, but it never works out that way. 1536 01:09:38,560 --> 01:09:42,760 Speaker 3: And this year we were tested sixteen deep. So you know, 1537 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:45,320 Speaker 3: for me, there are three locks going into the spring 1538 01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:49,240 Speaker 3: and after that all bets are off. Yeah, get LA's 1539 01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:51,960 Speaker 3: or Hernandez, who nobody talks about. But the guy goes 1540 01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:55,559 Speaker 3: out there, he gives you five innings and you know 1541 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:58,759 Speaker 3: when he's healthy. And again you hate saying Garrett Cooper 1542 01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 3: when he's healthy, Brian Anderson, when he's healthy, Elie's or 1543 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:03,559 Speaker 3: when he's healthy. But you know, Elia's is a guy 1544 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:07,760 Speaker 3: who while others have been developing and struggling and hurt, 1545 01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:10,400 Speaker 3: Eliezer's given this team some beginnings the last couple of years. 1546 01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, he sure has. He's been a vital part of 1547 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,280 Speaker 1: this team. And a lot of us think what he'd 1548 01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:15,720 Speaker 1: looked like out of the bullpen as well, because he 1549 01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 1: has like that incredible slider that would just play up 1550 01:10:18,160 --> 01:10:19,080 Speaker 1: in a limited role. 1551 01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 2: And I think that's it for now. 1552 01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:23,559 Speaker 1: I have one final question for you and just your 1553 01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:26,080 Speaker 1: personal favorite call for a Marlins game. 1554 01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:27,840 Speaker 2: Your favorite call, your favorite. 1555 01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 1: Moment that you've oh wow, privilege of calling, whether it's 1556 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 1: wow Yelich had a huge home run in twenty seventeen, 1557 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 1: the tile the game against the Mets. Which one is 1558 01:10:35,320 --> 01:10:37,040 Speaker 1: your favorite one that you call that where you're off 1559 01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:39,200 Speaker 1: the edge of your seat, you're saying, holy crap. 1560 01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:43,479 Speaker 3: You know what? There are two that come to mind. Well, 1561 01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:45,679 Speaker 3: and then there's a postseason last year with the big 1562 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 3: home runs, the Dickerson home run, the Cooper home run 1563 01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:51,519 Speaker 3: against the Cubs last year in game games one and two, 1564 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:56,120 Speaker 3: the seventh inning. Regular season, the moments that come to mind. 1565 01:10:56,200 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 3: For me, this is going back Ozuna throwing a man 1566 01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:03,519 Speaker 3: out at the plate to end the game against the Mets. 1567 01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:09,599 Speaker 3: That was awesome with Steve Seeschek on the mound. That's one. 1568 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,000 Speaker 3: There was another I just thought of that now has 1569 01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:18,440 Speaker 3: slipped my mind. The postseason ones were good. Obviously. October's 1570 01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 3: October that's in a class by itself. You know a 1571 01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:26,439 Speaker 3: lot of Jose Fernandez moments, including his final start against 1572 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:30,280 Speaker 3: the Nationals. Oh, the game I was thinking of was 1573 01:11:30,280 --> 01:11:33,439 Speaker 3: in twenty nineteen. It was a Saturday night against the 1574 01:11:33,479 --> 01:11:37,639 Speaker 3: Braves where the Marlins came back late and it was 1575 01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:40,759 Speaker 3: I think a walk off sack fly by Martine Prado 1576 01:11:41,120 --> 01:11:42,840 Speaker 3: after a game that had gone back and forth in 1577 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 3: the late innings, and it was with a huge crowd. 1578 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,439 Speaker 3: I think it was University of Miami Family Night, and 1579 01:11:47,479 --> 01:11:48,880 Speaker 3: it was one of those nights. I remember doing the 1580 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 3: game with Jper and Simbia actually in twenty nineteen and saying, 1581 01:11:52,400 --> 01:11:54,320 Speaker 3: this is one of those nights where you can kind 1582 01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:56,640 Speaker 3: of feel like what you hope it's gonna feel like 1583 01:11:56,720 --> 01:11:59,320 Speaker 3: all the time before too long. And so that's a 1584 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:02,920 Speaker 3: game that I remember pretty vividly against the Braves, in 1585 01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:05,519 Speaker 3: twenty nineteen, hopefully a lot more of those in the 1586 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:06,519 Speaker 3: nut to just the future. 1587 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:10,519 Speaker 1: Yes, Darlin Castro had that huge game time doubling the ninth. 1588 01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:11,920 Speaker 2: Of that game. I believe it was with the back 1589 01:12:11,960 --> 01:12:14,880 Speaker 2: zone and he snea thrown out. He got thrown out 1590 01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 2: with those scores. 1591 01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:17,880 Speaker 1: He's on dis man like I just he ruined the 1592 01:12:17,880 --> 01:12:19,240 Speaker 1: moment you got thrown out of the plate in the 1593 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:22,080 Speaker 1: ninth and but instead of some more heroes for Martin Prado. 1594 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:24,839 Speaker 1: But that'll wrap it up for us, for Noah, for Alex, 1595 01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:27,600 Speaker 1: for John, for Eli, for Kevin and Glenn, thank you 1596 01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:29,599 Speaker 1: so much for joining us.
