Strikeout number eight 26 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: for Patrick Monteverdi. To look at his stats in Double 27 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: A Pensacola three three to two ERA and twenty one games, 28 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 1: twenty one start, one hundred and fourteen innings, just incredible 29 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: what he was doing down in Pensacola, the definition of 30 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: an ace for the Blue Wahoo's and really provided that 31 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: team with a spargan and controlling the mound and doing 32 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: what he did there. Great season for Patrick Montsaverde and 33 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 1: well earned award there. Next up, we're gonna go with 34 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: Will Banfield, also in Double A, in the way he's 35 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: been playing, just really great year for Banfield. Excuse me, 36 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: you look at him, the way he's been easily the 37 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: best catcher you could say into organization as well. Someone 38 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: who's hitting for power twenty three home runs. That is god, 39 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: I believe more than double, maybe even triple of what 40 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: the Marlins have on on the main team in the 41 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: major leagues. Twenty three home runs, seventy six RBIs, three 42 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: stolen bases, seven to seven to four ops. It's definitely 43 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: what the Marlins have been needing, especially in that catch 44 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: up position, which has been so detrimental as of what 45 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: you look at the entire organization up and down Major 46 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: League to all the way to the FCO and DSL. 47 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: It is something that the Marlins really need and Bill 48 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: Banfield has really provided that, a real nice spark and 49 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,359 Speaker 1: another well deserved award for mister will Banfield. And then 50 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: after Will Banfield, we're gonna go with Javier Sonoa, who 51 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: got the High A Affiliate MVP or the Jupiter Hammerhead MVP, 52 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: and the way he's been performing over five hundred and 53 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: thirty at bats, just a real great number for there 54 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: in total, with four hundred of those at bats coming 55 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: at Jupiter. He did to get a promotion to Belloit 56 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: later in the season, and you look at his stats 57 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: and Jupiter one home run, not a home ern guy, 58 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: fifty seven RBI is really great. They're thirty one stolen bases, 59 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: which is incredible to see from Sonoa and really something 60 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: that you want to see from just a leadoff type 61 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: guy where he looks like which he is, and can 62 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: maybe grass towards three hundred and eight average three five 63 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: six on base slugging four hundred, which is really nice 64 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: to see from someone who only has one home run 65 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: on the year, and to get that that seven five 66 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: six ops for a guy who's not gonna hit home 67 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: runs hitting threeh eight, You know, looking at this kind 68 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: of reminds you of someone on the major leagues. Thirty 69 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: two strikeouts, thirty one walks. He reminds me of someone 70 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: I can't really place my name on it. Maybe someone 71 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,119 Speaker 1: on Twitter can help me. Really a picture of the moment, 72 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 1: picture of the player I'm really thinking about, which he 73 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 1: reminds me of. Obviously a batting title champ coming up, 74 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: but really with Havevier Snoah, really great to see here 75 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: from him, really well deserved and someone that can really 76 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: help the Marlins again in the future, especially at that 77 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: short stop position with the Marlins have been looking for, 78 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: which might seem for quite a bit. Joy Window's getting 79 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: up there in age, John Birdie, same thing. Garrett hanm 80 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: is not really a guy you want to have for 81 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: five six years at a time really probably just this year, 82 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: and that's in sonoah twenty one years old, so still 83 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: very young, still maybe two years, maybe even three, and 84 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: maybe until he comes up to the major league roster. 85 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: But to have thirty seven stolen bases just in total 86 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: this year, and what he did in Jupiter really again 87 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: say for almost everybody, I am well deserved again for 88 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: Sonoa there and hopefully continue this in Beloit next season, 89 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: maybe even go to Pensacola, who knows the way he's 90 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: been performing. And next up probably everyone's favorite on the Marlins, 91 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: mister Xavier Edwards, who got the Jumbo Shrimp MVP. And 92 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:50,239 Speaker 1: what he had done at Jacksonville this season, only ninety 93 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: three games in three hundred and seventy at bats, which 94 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: really tells you how great he was with the Jumbo Shrimp. 95 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: Seven home runs, forty seven RBI, three point fifty one 96 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 1: average four fifty seven, slugging four to twenty nine on 97 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: base to have an eight eight six ops just incredible. 98 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: What he's been doing at Jacksonville and really why he 99 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: got the called up and maybe even should have got 100 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: called up earlier in the season to have a long 101 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: tenured stay. But really again well deserved. What happened with 102 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 1: Xavier Edwards thirty two strikeouts really great to see. And 103 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: you compare that to twenty twenty two Xavier Edwards when 104 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: he was in the Tampa Bay Rays Triple A system 105 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: in the same number of games, same number ninety three 106 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 1: games in Triple A, he more, he halffed his strikeouts. 107 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: He went from seventy five strikeouts to thirty strikeouts and 108 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: Triple A. You look at his walks, he got plus 109 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: nine walks from forty three to fifty two. Just incredible, 110 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: his average almost one hundred points from two forty six 111 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: to three fifty one, and more than one hundred points 112 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: all around. Just really credible from Exaber Edwards, really pushing 113 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: himself to now to be probably the top hitting prospect 114 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: for the Marlins, and are well deserved for Xaber Edwards 115 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: and hopefully next season a full time stay on the 116 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: major league roster. But again we're gonna go ahead and 117 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: finish us off with a couple other names. We're gonna 118 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: go all the way down to the DSL with Andres Valor, 119 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: only seventeen years old, but six three point eighty rookie 120 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: affiliate down there with the DSL Marlins, and he had 121 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 1: a really great season. Looking at this an outfielder was 122 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: five home runs, twenty five RBIs again, two hundred and 123 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: four at bat, fifty one games less games over there 124 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: in the DSL, but really great to see. Fifty five strikeouts, 125 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: but with that kind of cut that down a bit, 126 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: but really good to see almost everywhere else. Twenty one 127 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: stolen bases again and that amount of games, there's really 128 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: something really to see.
