00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: start of the season, like nine days away as we're

00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: recording this, and even closer once everybody gets a chance

22
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,640

00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,039

Speaker 1: to the focus pretty soon. Flying up to Atlanta for

25
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: the exhibition games. We're getting really close. Just some backgrounds,

26
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 1: I guess for the listeners, for people that didn't listen

27
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 1: to Jacob last year. I guess for some people that

28
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: aren't on Twitter obsessively like we are. Can you tell

29
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: folks a little bit about the account of how why

30
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 1: you decided to come buying yourselves into a single account

31
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: covering the Marlins, What your mission statement is, what your

32
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 1: values are for that account? What what what do you

33
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: try to bring into the world with Fish Army three

34
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: h five.

35
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 2: Wow, that's one question.

36
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 3: That's a big question. Yeah, for sure.

37
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 4: Well, I guess our our mission statement. You know, me

38
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 4: and Shane, we we've been friends since the end of

39
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 4: high school. Like that's when we became friends. We had

40
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 4: actually played against each other once or twice when we

41
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 4: were playing, you know, and right.

42
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 2: Long before we knew each other.

43
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 4: And I actually found like I had posted it before,

44
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 4: like picture a picture of him and I played against

45
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 4: each other. He was I was catching, he was hitting,

46
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,279
Speaker 4: and it was just it was just a cool coincidence.

47
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 4: And I guess why we joined forces. I guess it

48
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 4: was I guess it was just Shane's idea.

49
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,640
Speaker 2: He just kind of like out of nowhere.

50
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: We didn't. We honestly never thought it was gonna get

51
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 3: to the exact point that we're at right now, where

52
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 3: we're constantly putting out content, even if it's silly little

53
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 3: tweets every single day. It started as just funny, like

54
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 3: us to engage ourselves within the fan base, and it

55
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 3: got a lot more fun than we intended. I guess, Yeah,

56
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 3: I don't know if we have, you know, like at

57
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 3: least for me now. Yeah, I don't know if we

58
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 3: have necessarily like a mission statement, but it's if there

59
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 3: is one, it's it's just to engage ourself in the

60
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 3: fan base. And I'm pretty sure you can attest to

61
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 3: the fact that that's exactly what we do on a

62
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 3: daily basis.

63
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: Yes, Yes, then I think anybody more so than absolutely anybody.

64
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 2: It's incredible appreciate.

65
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: Every time I wake up in the morning there's stuff

66
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: I missed from you guys, and when I go to

67
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: sleep too early, there's stuff that goes on after dark.

68
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: It's it's pretty incredible, and I kind of made up

69
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: the award on the spot, but I consider you that

70
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 1: account the Marlin's Twitter account of the year for twenty nineteen,

71
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: last year, first year. Then got to go in and yeah,

72
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: you brought a lot of entertainment value into our lives

73
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: and in some good opinions too. That's why we have

74
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: you on here too, because your knowledge of the organization

75
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: is pretty thorough and I enjoy some of your takes,

76
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: and that's why we're going to combine that into this

77
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: Marlins stream draft. But before we get into that, there

78
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 1: was some pretty recent news not officially official yet, but

79
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Braves are on the verge of signing Yasio

80
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: Puigue on fish shipes and across most of Marlin So

81
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: I think there was a lot of enthusiasm for the

82
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: Marlins hopefully signing Peak, like during the middle of the

83
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 1: off season. There were those rumors right around Christmas time

84
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: and they made a real offer to him, ultimately spent

85
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 1: that money on Corey Dickerson instead, And I mean, we

86
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 1: reached a point right here where the fit wasn't there anymore.

87
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: But I think there were plenty of people that were

88
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: hoping hed with the Marlins, and certainly aren't thrilled to

89
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 1: see that he's with a division rival. But for either

90
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: of you, Uh, one thing that is unusual about your

91
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: account is how engaged you are with other rival fan

92
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: bases as well. You see, to put a lot of

93
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: time and attention into uh, into clowning them and having

94
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: good spirited discussions with them, but locked in more so

95
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,799
Speaker 1: than than I am. How do you see Braves fans

96
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: reacting to that news of league signing at this late

97
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 1: stage of the preseason.

98
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 2: Well, it seems like there's Braves. Braves fans are very

99
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: large in numbers.

100
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 4: I think we all anybody who's spent five minutes on

101
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 4: Twitter knows that they win every single pole, even when

102
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 4: it just doesn't make sense that they're fun group to

103
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 4: interact with. Most of them are good, are good guys

104
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 4: and gals like they know the game. They they are.

105
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 4: You know, every fan base has they're bad apples. But

106
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 4: you know, since the Braves have a bigger number of

107
00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 4: fans a lot, they have ended more bad apple and

108
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,559
Speaker 4: it seems like a good chunck of them are happy

109
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 4: about the deal. You know, an outfield of a Kunya,

110
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 4: Twige and and Ozuna, that's an exciting outfield. You know,

111
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:17,359
Speaker 4: a lot of energy, a lot of enthusiasm, talented, you know,

112
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 4: doesn't even need to be said, talented group of guys.

113
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,359
Speaker 2: So it seems like most of them are happy about it.

114
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 4: And then the other half that you know, the old

115
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 4: respect the game crowd doesn't seem to who don't seem

116
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 4: to appreciate Twig's antics, I guess you could say, And

117
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:33,760
Speaker 4: they don't seem to be too happy about the signing.

118
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 4: So it seems to even split. As a Marls fan,

119
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 4: like you said, a lot of us.

120
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 3: Were excited to.

121
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 2: Get yeah, for we to come here. You know, he's

122
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 2: an exciting player. So it is what it is. You know,

123
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 2: I'm just happy that he signed with a team at all.

124
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's the most important thing. That he

125
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: didn't miss out on a season. And we'll see it's

126
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: a course gonna be a one year deal and we'll

127
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: see what he looks like this year, and maybe the

128
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: Marlins can reassess during the off season. But I mean,

129
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,280
Speaker 1: it seems like this would have been the exact time

130
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: that he would come right because they had they had

131
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: that little separation, you know, before this next wave of

132
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: outfield prospects come up. He seems like that really perfect

133
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: fit on like a pillow contract, just come in for

134
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: one year, re established himself. Everybody goes crazy. But yeah,

135
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: so it's well, we'll see he's gonna at least.

136
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 3: He's in the n least we get to have some

137
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 3: fun with him, even if he's not in a Marlins uniform.

138
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Ozuna too, He gets to come back to

139
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 4: the same division. So I love watching Ozuna play, So

140
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 4: getting to see him play against the Marlins ten times

141
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 4: this year that would be fun.

142
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: Absolutely, We're gonna transition from there into this great idea

143
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 1: that I came up with kind of randomly over the

144
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: weekends and that I'm still trying to find soon. But

145
00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: this is gonna be our first attempt at doing what

146
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 1: we'll call a Marlins draft. It's taking stock of I

147
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 1: guess at this moment, there's still a couple hundred players

148
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 1: in the Marlins organization, everybody from those vets that are

149
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 1: hanging on by a little thread to some of the

150
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: teenagers that they just drafted or signed internationally, and we're

151
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,679
Speaker 1: going to pick the ones that we want to keep.

152
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: Most of all, it's tough to choose favorites to prioritize

153
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: these things. But it's a good problem to have with

154
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: this organization right now because they have so much depth

155
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 1: at most of these positions, guys that not just with

156
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 1: their talent and their potential, but you really like what

157
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: they bring off the field and how they can represent

158
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: the franchise in a positive way. So I came up

159
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: with this idea to choose the guys that you really

160
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: want to stick with, imagining for the next ten years.

161
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: You have these guys forming a single lineup for you,

162
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: and I think it's more intriguing when you go head

163
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: to ahead with other people making some tough decisions. I

164
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: think really the best case in this situation is that

165
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: I steal some guys that you guys really love, and

166
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 1: vice versa, picking some of the players that I really

167
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: believe in moving forward but don't get the chance to

168
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: get because we're gonna go alternating back and forth with

169
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: you two teaming up Jacob and Shane, a Fish Army

170
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: team versus a Fish Stripes team, drafting back and forth,

171
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: and we're gonna go twelve rounds deep. We're gonna take

172
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 1: one player to be a catcher, a first baseman, a

173
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: second baseman, a shortstop, a third baseman, three outfielders, a

174
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: DH a starting pitcher, a relief pitcher, and then one

175
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: wild card that could be at any position. So we'll

176
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: go twelve rounds deep in twenty four total picks, and

177
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: a lot of things to take into consideration here, probably

178
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 1: some things that I haven't even thought of yet. But

179
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 1: we're picking up players for the next ten years, so

180
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: age is gonna be a pretty big factor here. You know,

181
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: if you trust Brandon Kinseler to be a great closer

182
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: at age forty five, even though he's thirty five right now,

183
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 1: you think he's going to age gracefully, then maybe you

184
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: take a swing, but probably not. At the same time,

185
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: you've seen some of these new draft picks. They haven't

186
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: played in any real games yet. You might not expect

187
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: anything from them in the majors in twenty twenty or

188
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, but all of a sudden, if they

189
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: hit up in the near future, then all of a sudden,

190
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: that's a guy that you really want to build a

191
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: franchise around. Because you are the guests here, you're going

192
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,679
Speaker 1: to get the first overall pick, and you're in different locations.

193
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: So this whole process could be a little bit awkward,

194
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: that deliberate right here over the caller. I guess you

195
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: can message each other privately to strategize as best you can.

196
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: But with the first overall pick, if you're going to

197
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 1: pick anybody in this Marlins organization right now to lead

198
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: off our dream Draft, who's it going to be?

199
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,079
Speaker 4: Oh?

200
00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 2: I wish we had prepared.

201
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 3: In hindsight, we got Shane.

202
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 2: I mean, Shane, you said yourself your favorite prospect or

203
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 2: his Jazz. Yeah, I know, Craig Mesh says Leywan Diaz

204
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 2: is the best Marlins prospect, and damn if Craig says it,

205
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 2: it's true.

206
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 4: But like I don't know something about Jazz. You know

207
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 4: he's got the sauce.

208
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,320
Speaker 2: So I think we're gonna take him.

209
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: The first overall pick in the first ever Marlins Dream Draft.

210
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: Shortstop Jazz is all right.

211
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 2: Now that I'm here, I really can see it coming.

212
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 4: And I'm telling you is Marlin, we're gonna win a

213
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 4: championship in two or three years.

214
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, for me, this is pretty easy, and

215
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna go the same direction as you guys.

216
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: I value major league production quite a bit, and we

217
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: have one guy who's been great at the major league

218
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 1: level each of the last two years for the Marlins.

219
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 1: It's Brian Anderson who this year. He's uh, he's looking

220
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: even more prepared this year than he has been the

221
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: previous two and he's put a lot of right fields

222
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 1: the last two years, but his natural position is third base.

223
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: He's an exceptional defender of that position. And we know

224
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,719
Speaker 1: the potential he showed, especially right before his injury last year,

225
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: how hot he could get with the bat, and especially

226
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: with the fences coming in at Marlin Sparkins centerfield and

227
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: in the right center I think he's gonna have more

228
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: over the fence power going in that direction. He's gonna

229
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 1: be a really consistent hitter for a long time. Just

230
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: turned twenty seven years old, so he's gonna be entering

231
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 1: his peak pretty soon. And I think he's gonna stay

232
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: at that level for a long time. So number two

233
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: overall pick, my first rounder is gonna be Brian Anderson.

234
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: And we'll hand it back to you.

235
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 4: Troubled last time out, good shot went down the line,

236
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 4: Yechny around third. Brian Anderson is the hero today the Marlins.

237
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: Within a walk off win.

238
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 3: Grave He's not the wrong way that pick at all.

239
00:12:58,360 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 2: No be it.

240
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 4: Shane has a bet Jersey, so he knows, like we know,

241
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 4: how agree he is. He's gonna very underrated in the

242
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 4: baseball world. Hopefully that changes suit soon. So, man, I know,

243
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 4: our catching depth in the organization is pretty thin. You know,

244
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,559
Speaker 4: you have Will Banfield, who's great defensively, but there's a

245
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 4: lot of questions about his bat, whether it can perform

246
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 4: in the upper levels of the miners and in the

247
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 4: big leagues at all.

248
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 2: In reality that I.

249
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 4: Wouldn't be surprised if they go after somebody in free agency,

250
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 4: if especially if a certain former Philly doesn't pan out.

251
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 4: But I guess for our pip right now, I mean,

252
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 4: who else could we go for except you know horde

253
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 4: Al Farrol.

254
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 2: You know he is. You know he's a young cat catcher.

255
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: I think he's twenty five or just turned twenty six.

256
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 2: I'm not totally sure.

257
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 4: You know, big big catcher, over two hundred pounds.

258
00:13:55,280 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 2: Second in what is it velo to a second.

259
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 4: I think he's just like just under eighty eight miles

260
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,719
Speaker 4: per hour on the throat a second, right behind J. T.

261
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: Real Mudo who's number one.

262
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,319
Speaker 4: A lot of tools of the plate, good swing very

263
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,839
Speaker 4: excited to see how he progresses this year with the

264
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 4: addition of James Rawson coming from the Twins. So yeah,

265
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 4: I thinks gotta go with Farrow here.

266
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. Rouson actually had a pretty encouraging update about him today.

267
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 1: He spoke to the media and touched on you know

268
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: a lot of different players and how they're progressing in camp,

269
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: and Yeah, there's really never any doubt about what Alfar

270
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: does when he makes impact with the ball. I think

271
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: last year he hit each of the three longest home

272
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: runs that anybody on the teammate. He's just got to

273
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: have that discipline at the plate. I mean it's pretty

274
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: he gets ugly at times, but that's that's something that

275
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: can be fixed, and you're pretty hopeful about it. And

276
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: I understand why. And this is where the strategy comes in,

277
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: because now that he is off the board, I mean,

278
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: I could wait a while before going for a catcher,

279
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: you know, I know that we can get pretty far

280
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: down here, and I could shift my attention to other positions.

281
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, this might not be a super popular

282
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: pick because when we started recording. Right before we started recording,

283
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: I mentioned that people's opinions shift very rapidly. They get.

284
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 1: People overreact to a lot of small things. And one

285
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: guy that we haven't seen very much of at all

286
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: for the Marlins over almost a full year now is

287
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: six Do Sanchez. He was a major league camp, didn't

288
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: any games, rumblings about his conditioning and all that. Some

289
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: concerns of course about his durability that he had before

290
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 1: the trade, but all that thing said, he's been, in

291
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 1: my eyes, the best prospect the organization ever since they

292
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: got him in the trade for real mutual year and

293
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 1: a half ago. He seemed healthy. Now he's in good spirits.

294
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: He's just exceptionally well rounded as a pitcher. I don't know,

295
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: but there's there's no no real holes in his pitching game.

296
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 1: The command that he has is exceptional. His fastball and

297
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 1: his change up in particular are plus plus. And when

298
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: he's using his breaking ball to go along with that,

299
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: he's the guy that's so efficient. He's going to stick

300
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: as a starter. He's going to be in the big

301
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 1: leagues very soon, probably not on an opening day, but

302
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: hopefully at some point in twenty twenty, and if not,

303
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: shortly after that. And I don't know if he's going

304
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: to be, you know, a super duperstar. I'm not necessarily

305
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: that much on board, but I feel so comfortable about

306
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: his floor and being a big part of this rotation

307
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: for a long long time, not even twenty two years old. Yet,

308
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: he's not even at his twenty second birthday, and he's

309
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: going to be my second round pick and my starting pitcher.

310
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 5: Called strike three fastball or inside corner, I actually may

311
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 5: have been the change of ninety miles per hour on

312
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 5: the inside part of the plate. Larnick strikes out looking

313
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 5: now there's one a way.

314
00:16:58,040 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 2: Nice, So I think I really like it.

315
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 4: I like about six oh is he pounds his own

316
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 4: something I had talked about recently on the on the account.

317
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: I love, uh Sandy al Cantata.

318
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 4: He's he's got good stuff too, but something he struggles

319
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 4: with is getting ahead of the account and just you know,

320
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,919
Speaker 4: staying in the zone. Whenever he gets razzled or he

321
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 4: gets into trouble, he'll he'll he'll lose his aggressiveness in

322
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 4: the zone and that's where he gets into trouble. And

323
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,080
Speaker 4: that's and for six those cases, that's it's just not

324
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 4: the case. You know.

325
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 3: Uh, we've been we've been shotting behind the scenes. We

326
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 3: figured it'd be more you know, useful for us for

327
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 3: the sake of getting the better, the better roster. We're

328
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 3: going with Edward Cabrera.

329
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just like you know six oh, he's probably,

330
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 4: like you said, he's probably the best prospect in the organization.

331
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 4: But it seems like from guys like Craig mentioned I

332
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 4: think you've tweeted before, it seems like most people in

333
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,479
Speaker 4: the organization seemed to be as high or if not

334
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 4: even higher on Edward Cabrera.

335
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,960
Speaker 2: And I've a.

336
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 4: Few I haven't seen a pitch in person, but what

337
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 4: I have been able to watch, you know, on just

338
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 4: on online.

339
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,440
Speaker 2: He's got good stuff. He pounds his own.

340
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 4: Throws hard, got good, has a good secondary pitches.

341
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 2: I mean, I think same things. I think he's gonna

342
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 2: be a good big league pitcher for a long time.

343
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: And I mean he's one of the rare guys that

344
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 1: was inherited from the old ownership. That's the thing is

345
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: we look at and we see almost everybody has turned

346
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 1: over over the last couple of years during the rebuilding.

347
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 1: He's the guy that was signs out of the dr

348
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 1: back in like twenty fifteen, and there wasn't a whole

349
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 1: lot to get excited about, initially his first couple of

350
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: years and in the minor league baseball, and then of

351
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: course last year he just took a huge leap forward

352
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: with Jupiter, and then he kept it up when he

353
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: got promoted to Jacksonville. So yeah, I mean, I wouldn't

354
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,880
Speaker 1: be shocked if he turns out to be a better

355
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: pitcher in the major league. I mean, obviously I believe

356
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: a little bit more in six to zero, but it's

357
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: hard to go on, go on, And so that's gonna

358
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: be your third round pick, number five. Overall, it's back

359
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 1: to me for number six. And this is where I'll

360
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: go with Lewin Diaz, the guy who whose stock has

361
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 1: erupted ever since he got traded to the Marlins and

362
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 1: the Sergio Romo trade last year. He's he's incredible. He's incredible,

363
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: and it's hard to get too excited about a first

364
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: base only prospect, but he's he's everything you want in

365
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:37,879
Speaker 1: a first base and he's extremely smooth defensively, and he

366
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 1: has power to all fields. He didn't really show it

367
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,199
Speaker 1: a whole lot playing in the Twin system in twenty eighteen.

368
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 1: His stock was really far down. He was a guy

369
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: that was unprotected in the Rule five draft back in

370
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 1: the winner of twenty eighteen. Any team could have picked

371
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 1: him and put him straight on the major league roster,

372
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: and nobody did because he was that you know, it

373
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: was that inconsistent. In that season, he made a new

374
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: commitment to working out, and you know the results followed

375
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: up all throughout twenty nineteen. One of the best tower

376
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: hitters in minor league baseball. He went to the Dominican

377
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 1: Winter League. He won Rookie of the Year in the

378
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: Dominican Winter League. He went to spring training with the Marlins,

379
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 1: and he matched a couple of dingers with the Marlins

380
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 1: in spring training. And now he's at summer camp and

381
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 1: he's sitting homers off of more major league pitchers.

382
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 4: Oh and high in the air, pretty deep to center,

383
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 4: lead the center field rother run on the warning track,

384
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 4: looks up, it's god.

385
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 6: Laywinds home on us graight away center and Jacksonville Luds

386
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 6: who won nothing in the four.

387
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: You've seen the comps, of course, to Carlos Delgado, that's

388
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,399
Speaker 1: the most popular one. I think that might be a

389
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: little bit of an overreaction again, but I definitely see

390
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 1: similarities to perhaps a left handed version of Derek Lee,

391
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 1: who was of course in the Marlins organization and then

392
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:07,679
Speaker 1: went on went to the Cubs, especially the build that

393
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,080
Speaker 1: he has, and it's the defense also, because that's the

394
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: thing that you really shouldn't totally overlook that people will

395
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: will note some things about how first base isn't all

396
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: that important, and there are so many things you can

397
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: do to make life easier on your teammates at that position,

398
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: and he does them. So I'm thrilled with him. I

399
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 1: think there's a pretty decent chance we see him in

400
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: the majors this year, and once he gets there, he's

401
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: going to stick around a while. So he is my pick,

402
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: my third rounder, and obviously my first basement.

403
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 2: I love Lewen. He's going to be good too. Totally.

404
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,240
Speaker 2: I think it's a good pick.

405
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 4: I can't I still I can't believe that we were

406
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,479
Speaker 4: able to flip Sergio Romo at the deadline for him

407
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 4: along with Chris Vallomont, who it's another good pitching prospect.

408
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 4: But it just goes to show the pitching depth that

409
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 4: the organization and has had since Jeter came in, and

410
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 4: now we're able to use the the influx of pitchers,

411
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 4: you know, to make deals to fill up any holes

412
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 4: that we have.

413
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 2: Same thing happened with Jazz Chism for the Zach Gallan

414
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:13,960
Speaker 2: trade and just.

415
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 4: And also another power hitting lefty first baseman that the

416
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 4: Twins let go, you know, like like David Ortiz. Maybe

417
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 4: hopefully he has the same success in October for us,

418
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 4: like big Poppyhead in Boston.

419
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

420
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be a decent outcome.

421
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 3: Yeah for.

422
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 4: Real, he just would be great if he just turned

423
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 4: into one of the greatest power hitters ever.

424
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 2: Yeah.

425
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,160
Speaker 4: So next Nick, we're going Vandy. We're going Vandy boys.

426
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,919
Speaker 4: I guy go jj Blade.

427
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 2: You know, he will won a.

428
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 4: College World's won the College World Series with Vanderbilt, and

429
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 4: his senior year drafted uh fourth overall in twenty nineteen,

430
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:57,160
Speaker 4: And I saw this dude hitting Jupiter and he looks big.

431
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 2: He almost looks big league.

432
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 4: Ready then, and he probably even and at any extra

433
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 4: work he did in the off season, he's he's he's

434
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 4: a guy.

435
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 2: That will probably get to the big leagues. I would

436
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 2: assume by next year, about two years from now the latest.

437
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 4: You know, he's just gonna be I think he's gonna

438
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 4: he's gonna he's as bad as second to none, he's

439
00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 4: he's gonna sorry, I.

440
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 2: Just I think, I like, I think, and you want to.

441
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 3: Hit the ship out of the ball. I think that's

442
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 3: where you that.

443
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:35,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was is number one on my outfield list

444
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: for this so yeah, you definitely right around. I don't

445
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,640
Speaker 1: know if I was gonna get him with my next week,

446
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: I was, I was close, he was, he was coming

447
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,480
Speaker 1: up on my queue, so that was. Yeah. That was

448
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 1: a good pick, good strategic pick and makes all the

449
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: sense in the world. He's yeah, he's amazing. He's amazing, and.

450
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 2: Uh, there's not much really to say about him.

451
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 4: It's just like like I was trying to find something

452
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 4: interesting or new to say about JJ, but there's nothing

453
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:01,160
Speaker 4: new to be said.

454
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 2: It's it's all it's all outs, all out there.

455
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 4: He's going to be a a good, big leader, hopefully

456
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 4: just as a testament to how advanced he is as

457
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 4: a hit or and.

458
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 2: As a player in general.

459
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 4: It's just that after he was drafted in twenty nineteen,

460
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 4: just like a couple of months later, he was already

461
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 4: in high ad Jupiter, you know, and you know, not

462
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 4: a lot of players skip the you know, low rookie

463
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 4: ball and low and low a and he was able

464
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:25,919
Speaker 4: to make that jump.

465
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 2: He didn't dazzle anybody, but he didn't.

466
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 4: He didn't.

467
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:32,160
Speaker 2: He was no scrub either.

468
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 4: He was able to keep his own and for his

469
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 4: first couple of months in pro ball, I was really

470
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 4: excited to see how he progressed this year with a

471
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 4: full professional season, whether it was at Jupiter or Jacksonville.

472
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,479
Speaker 4: So that's another bummer about this whole everything going on

473
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 4: right now in twenty twenty. So definitely going to be

474
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 4: excited to see him play actual games in twenty twenty one.

475
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you kind of undersold him a little bit

476
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,439
Speaker 1: right there because his that decision to put him straight

477
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: into HIGA. I couldn't find anybody in the Marlins organization

478
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: that has ever done that that type. To play your

479
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 1: first professional game at HIGA, only a couple levels below

480
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,679
Speaker 1: the big leagues, that's something that they haven't done with

481
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: any other prospect and just.

482
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 2: Shows the confidence they have in them, right.

483
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 1: And how much they believe that his college career prepared

484
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: him to succeed in the pros. And yeah, we're going

485
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: to find out pretty soon with him. So I'm going

486
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 1: to take a very interesting curve right here, something that

487
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 1: again prioritizing major league production over the prospect pedigree. A

488
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: new addition to the Marlins organization Jonathan Vrr, who last

489
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,679
Speaker 1: year was the best player on the Orioles Great Power

490
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 1: of forty stolen bases, and in his career he has

491
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 1: been one of the most valuable base runners in all

492
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: baseball the last handful of years. He's probably gonna be

493
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: a Marlin for only one year in real life, but

494
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 1: that's why what we're doing right here is this is

495
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: the dream. This is the dream, and we're gonna lock

496
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,560
Speaker 1: him up for the rest of his relevant years in

497
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: the major leagues. He's what twenty eight to twenty nine

498
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: years old. I think he just turned twenty nine, So

499
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,239
Speaker 1: he might be right now as good as he's ever

500
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: gonna be. But right now he is really versatile. He

501
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 1: is that great bas runner and he's coming off of

502
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: here where he hit twenty four homers. What exactly that

503
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 1: looks like in Marlins Park, We're gonna have to find out.

504
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: But as a switch hitter and as someone that has

505
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 1: this nice track record in the major leagues, it's not

506
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: just in twenty nineteen, but before that a handful of

507
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 1: years in Milwaukee that he was a really valuable player

508
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 1: and someone that I just like the fit. I like

509
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:49,120
Speaker 1: the versatility, and if worse comes to worse going into

510
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,880
Speaker 1: the future with a designated hitter in the National League,

511
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 1: if he really falls off in that department, then at

512
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: least you still get his bat and his legs in

513
00:26:57,320 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: the lineup, even if you don't know exactly what to

514
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: do with his glove. I am going to draft him

515
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 1: as a second baseman. So that's where because we're gonna

516
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: sign a position to each one of these players to

517
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 1: make sure that, yeah, we address we address every single

518
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 1: position along the way, and we are. We are now

519
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 1: through four rounds of the draft. Just to recap where

520
00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:24,040
Speaker 1: we are, you guys, Fish Army as drafted shortstop Jess Chisholm,

521
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: catcher Jorge al Farrow, starting pitcher Edward Cabrera, and outfielder

522
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: JJ Blade. I have third baseman Brian Anderson, starting pitcher

523
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 1: six Dos Sanchez, first baseman Leywan Diez, and now second

524
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: baseman Jonathan vr and we head into round five.

525
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: All right, Shane, I think take it from here, man.

526
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna go with Monte Harrison.

527
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 2: I know we're going pretty prospect heavy on this one.

528
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,199
Speaker 4: I know you say you value the MLB talent, but

529
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 4: just hard, it's hard to not get noted about Monte. Yeah,

530
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,399
Speaker 4: it's just I know, we uh all we've had so

531
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 4: far this year has been spring training and the interest

532
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 4: squad games in summer camp. But I don't know, It's

533
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,919
Speaker 4: just I don't see a world where he's not on

534
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 4: the opening day roster in two thousand and two that

535
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,679
Speaker 4: you know, in this year and whenever the season starts,

536
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 4: you know, he brings a lot of excitement, a lot

537
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 4: of speed to the game. You know, his bat has

538
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 4: just improved since he got to the organization, especially in

539
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 4: the last year, made some mechanical adjustments, like uh, he

540
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 4: took out that big leg kick he came in with.

541
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 4: He seems like a seems like he's striking out less.

542
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 4: He's just making more solid contact all around.

543
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: Three one pitch, fly ball, well hit right.

544
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,840
Speaker 5: Field, hep ball's got some carry, hop ball's gonna get out.

545
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 4: Hop ball's a home run from Buddy Harrison, And.

546
00:28:55,080 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: We are tied at three whole opposite field power there

547
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 1: by Paris.

548
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 4: And and just like with Al Farrow, with the addition

549
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 4: of James Rowson, I'm excited to see how those two

550
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 4: help his swing. Like Monte has a lot of tools,

551
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 4: a lot of talent. I know a lot of people

552
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 4: are a little skeptical on anybody and that Christian Yellow

553
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 4: straight after. Yeah, I'm sure people are skeptical, but after

554
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 4: what's happening with with Lewis and people seem to have

555
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 4: given up on him. I know, we may we make

556
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 4: jokes a lot, but I we wish nothing but success

557
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 4: for him. You know, it's just having good fun with

558
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 4: him and also people and also his son's gone off

559
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 4: to a slow start.

560
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 2: But I don't know, it's just I hope he's I

561
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 2: hope Monte is different.

562
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 4: I hope he's able to I hope they're all able

563
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 4: to pull together and have good big league careers. But

564
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 4: I'm just really excited about Monte.

565
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, he looks like something to prove, especially like Jacob

566
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 3: said after that, coming off of the being one of

567
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 3: the puts Peanuts traded for Yelich and amongst the four,

568
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 3: I feel he's certainly one of the ones that has

569
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 3: something that I look forward to seeing in the future

570
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 3: for sure.

571
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 1: And to me, I just think the key for them

572
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: and it's hard to get inside anybody's head, but so

573
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 1: important to distance themselves from the trade and not try

574
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 1: to think about yourselves as just denying the trade and

575
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,080
Speaker 1: feel like you have to redeem it for anybody, because

576
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: that's that's just not the way to go about it.

577
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 1: You can't control what Yelich is doing over there and

578
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: the kind of brilliance that he showed in and it's

579
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: not he can't take any responsibility for it. It's not

580
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: their fault that they were connected to them, that they

581
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: were part of that deal. It's out of their control.

582
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: And I think more than that you're able to distance

583
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 1: yourself from that and just focus on what you can

584
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: do is so important, And I guess what's really what's encouraging.

585
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: I guess is how the fan base has embraced him

586
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: and how they've been patient. You know, it has been

587
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: about two and a half years since that trade and

588
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: then in a major league regular season game yet. But

589
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 1: because of all the coverage who've been able to see

590
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 1: throughout his journey as a prospect and now what we're

591
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: seeing in summer camp and spring training, we've been able

592
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,200
Speaker 1: to see a lot of him and see him as

593
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,000
Speaker 1: a person as well, because he is a really well

594
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: rounded person off the field, aside from just lighting things

595
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: up with all the tools that he has as a

596
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 1: baseball player, and because fans are embracing him for who

597
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: he is right now, I mean, hopefully that helps. But

598
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: we're gonna find out for real probably next week. You're right,

599
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 1: because we you know, we just put out an article

600
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: on the projected opening day roster and he's on it.

601
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna make it, especially with some of

602
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,600
Speaker 1: the other setbacks they had in the outfield. Right now,

603
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: there's gonna be playing time available from the start of

604
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: the season, and they got those extra spots on the roster,

605
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: so he's gonna be there. He's gonna be there, and

606
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 1: I'm pretty excited about him too. And once again, I'm

607
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 1: pretty annoyed because he was high up on my own

608
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: list and he was coming up here in the draft,

609
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: but instead I will have to go to the next

610
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: outfielder up from me, And this is the first outfielder

611
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: I'm taking. It's Heyesuss Sanchez, consensus top one hundred prospect

612
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 1: in all of baseball, someone that is a couple of

613
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 1: years younger than Monte. Not to brag, but he's two

614
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 1: right now and just like Monte's on the forty man roster,

615
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: has experience in the high miners, and after originally starting

616
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 1: summer camp he was training in the alternate site and Jupiter.

617
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 1: You know, he's been with the big leaguers the last

618
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: week or so of camp. It shows you how seriously

619
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: they think of him as a player. Maybe not an

620
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: opening day, but he's going to come up in the

621
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 1: very near future. And he's been a highly regarded prospect

622
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: like his entire professional career. He was signed, of course

623
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: by Tampa Bay. Originally he got traded over last summer,

624
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 1: and with him, the results really don't value. The results

625
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: that he's had in minor league games, not the kind

626
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: of big numbers you're expecting. And I mean, really the

627
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: one major hang up is for someone that has so

628
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 1: much raw power, he hasn't shown it all that much

629
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: in games themselves. But I mean, when you see the

630
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 1: way that this guy is doing in batting practice, the

631
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: kind of reviews that he gets from all the coaches

632
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: that he works with and his teammates, you know that

633
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 1: talents is in there, and you know he's in a

634
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 1: good spot developmentally with the Marlins, where if they did

635
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: have any concerns about any part of his game that

636
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: you expect him to improve, whether it's the same coaches

637
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: that we think have helped some of these other prospects

638
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 1: over the last couple of years, He's got all the

639
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 1: resources he needs to really harness his game and put

640
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 1: it all together. I predict that just a couple of

641
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 1: months from now, by the time we get to the

642
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: end of this short and twenty twenty season, we're going

643
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 1: to see him in the majors, and I think the

644
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: opinion on him from fan base is going to flip

645
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: a lot, and this is going to look like an

646
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 1: amazing value for me once we fast forward a couple

647
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: of months and get to actually see him in major

648
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: league games. So he's my fifth round, your number ten overall,

649
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 1: and we're almost halfway through. We're gonna start our six

650
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: rounds going back to you guys.

651
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 4: Right, And I hope all these prospects pan out in

652
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,240
Speaker 4: real life, because this is just so exciting.

653
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 7: For the next pick.

654
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 4: God, and also, thank goodness the DH is coming to

655
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 4: the National League, because that's where we're going to pick next,

656
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 4: because we're taking Gerard and Karnacion.

657
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,760
Speaker 2: His swing, the ball just shumps.

658
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,800
Speaker 4: Off his bat like the footage from him in the

659
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 4: Arizona Fall League, and I think he went yard a

660
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,759
Speaker 4: couple of times in spring training, one against Houston, I

661
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 4: think one against the Mets if I remember correctly.

662
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 2: Just tons of power.

663
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: Uh.

664
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,359
Speaker 4: Some some conversation on Twitter is that his swing is

665
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 4: a little reminiscent of another.

666
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 2: Former Marlin gen Carlos Stanton Uh, and I could see it.

667
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, they both have that similar short, powerful swing, two

668
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:05,399
Speaker 4: handed finish, not a lot of movements. Yeah.

669
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 2: I was almost to have to take him as the

670
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 2: wild card because but.

671
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:15,839
Speaker 4: Since the DH is more more or less confirmed, like

672
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 4: coming to stay, like coming to stay here in the

673
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,719
Speaker 4: National League, I think I think we're gonna take him

674
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 4: as the DH.

675
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 2: What do you think?

676
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 3: No, I couldn't have agreed more as far as the

677
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 3: DH goes. That's exactly the type of guy we're looking for.

678
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 3: It's gonna be weird to see like the route that

679
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,719
Speaker 3: management will take for the position, considering we've never seen

680
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,960
Speaker 3: anyone in any Obviously this is a very brought Sam,

681
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 3: but anybody in the National League, I have to assume

682
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 3: the position of DH. But yeah, looking ahead, that's definitely

683
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:49,839
Speaker 3: somebody that will be at the top of my list

684
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:51,800
Speaker 3: for designated hitter for sure.

685
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 1: There is this great highlight of him from the Arizona

686
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 1: Fall League, because he was out there this past fall

687
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: where he hit a Monster Grants slamb in the championship

688
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 1: game and it turned out to be the game winning

689
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: Grand Slam And I love to play it because the

690
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 1: sound off his bat in that clip is like nothing

691
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 1: you ever see it. It's such a perfect microcosm of

692
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 1: who he is as a player and why you're so

693
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: excited about him. But the problem is he hits the

694
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: home run against Stirling Sharp, who is now a Marlins prospect.

695
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: So I always feel bad putting it out there because

696
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,759
Speaker 1: I don't mean to take a dig against the guy

697
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 1: that's now part of the organization and is probably going

698
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,520
Speaker 1: to be part of the organization for a few years

699
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 1: to come as pitching prospect. But it's that's just kind

700
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 1: of reinforces like how a special this guy could be

701
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: because of the impact he's able to have in the

702
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,800
Speaker 1: Fall League, which is a pretty high level of competition,

703
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: almost all the top prospects from around the majors in

704
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: a normal year playing the Fall League, and just the

705
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 1: way that he was able to do that in that setting,

706
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: and he backed it up in spring training. I mean,

707
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: you guys saw it. He had an opposit sidfield home

708
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 1: run two against I forget it was one of the

709
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 1: major league pitchers on the Mets during spring training. He's yeah,

710
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: he's impressive. Another guy that when you speak to people

711
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: in the Marlins organization, they have pretty outrageous comparisons, including

712
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: dropping Stanton's name as a guy that has the same

713
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 1: kind of power that an Garasion does. Another one that

714
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to put too much credibility behind that

715
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: comparison between Gerar and Stanton. I don't think he's going

716
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 1: to be there as an all round player, but as

717
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 1: a hitter alone, there's a lot of promise there. I mean,

718
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 1: the one name that came to mind to me is

719
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 1: Mark Trumbo. Mark Trumbo, who one year led the American

720
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,800
Speaker 1: League in home runs and a lot of other years

721
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,120
Speaker 1: was among the leaders in that category. Not the most

722
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:51,440
Speaker 1: graceful athlete, but someone that has incredible power and he

723
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: has that huge build, and even as he deserves a

724
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: lot of credit too, just as a natural hitter himself,

725
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,959
Speaker 1: it's not all like it's not all or nothing with him.

726
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,800
Speaker 1: There's a lot of other positive ways that he impacts

727
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: the game even when he's not going deep. So I

728
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:08,799
Speaker 1: think he's gonna be around a long time. And that's

729
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 1: a good pick by you guys here in the sixth rounds.

730
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 1: And this is where I'm going to use my wild

731
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 1: card because I want more pitching, and I want more

732
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,920
Speaker 1: pitching with big upside. I'm going to take Max Meyer

733
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: as my right behind six Do Sanchez and both those

734
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,400
Speaker 1: guys that I really have a hard time drawing too

735
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: much of a distinction between them. They're both incredible to me.

736
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 1: And the one hang up with six Do in a

737
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,200
Speaker 1: lot of people's eyes is his height being only six

738
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 1: foot even. And that's the same thing with Max Meyer.

739
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,719
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the reason why people didn't see him

740
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: as a fit with the Marlins that high in the

741
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 1: draft this year, the number three overall pick, Like, why

742
00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 1: would you invest so much in a guy that's only

743
00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 1: six feet tall? There's just not that many starting pitchers

744
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,240
Speaker 1: that look like that. Why not go with Ace Lacey.

745
00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 1: Ace Lacey was the guy that checked all the boxes,

746
00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: And so they end up going under slot value and

747
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 1: taking Max Meyer. And the more you look into him,

748
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: the more convinced I am that he's going to be

749
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 1: a top of the rotation kind of guy. Is he

750
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: had the best pure stuff out of anybody in this

751
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: draft class. The fastball v low is off the charts.

752
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: He's been tracked as high as like one hundred and

753
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: two with his fastball in some games, and someone that

754
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 1: regularly sits in the high nineties. And of course the

755
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 1: slider is even more deadly. Put in that conversation, one

756
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,960
Speaker 1: of the best sliders that some scouts have ever seen.

757
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 1: The velocity that he gets with that pitch into the

758
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: low nineties, but also the way that he's able to

759
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,400
Speaker 1: spot it exactly where you want it low and a

760
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:49,359
Speaker 1: way to right handed hitters, and just as effective when

761
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: he throws it into lefties as well. It's just a

762
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:55,439
Speaker 1: pitch that is so difficult to coordinate as a hitter.

763
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 1: And when he gets ahead in the count, and he

764
00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: always gets ahead in the count because he has really

765
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 1: excellent man's then he's a guy that has no hit stuff,

766
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,239
Speaker 1: like every time he takes the mounds. Twenty one years old.

767
00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: Added to the Marlins playerpool this year. Another type of

768
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: guy that if everything breaks right, you see him in

769
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,919
Speaker 1: the majors this year. Most likely though in twenty twenty one,

770
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,279
Speaker 1: and I just had to have him. I had to

771
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 1: have him, even though I already took my starting pitcher.

772
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 1: I loved myself some six though I needed more, and

773
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,400
Speaker 1: you guys let him fall to me, and I'm happy

774
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 1: with that. So we're halfway through and I'm feeling pretty confident.

775
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: But we go to you with your seventh round pick.

776
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 4: I think we're gonna go.

777
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 2: For our relief pitcher, Alex Macia, left hander.

778
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's not somebody you'll hear a lot about in

779
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 4: the on you know, Marlins fan talk about him.

780
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,680
Speaker 8: He's not written one of the higher rate of prospects,

781
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 8: but he's you know, according to you know, any of

782
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 8: those baseball sites. But I think, you know, he's gonna

783
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,320
Speaker 8: be a really good bullpen left handed piece and bullpend

784
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 8: could be a really good closure one day.

785
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:15,919
Speaker 4: And I just think, yeah, I think he's good pick.

786
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:20,840
Speaker 2: I think he's his gameble age. Well, so we're taking him.

787
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to complain because he hasn't allowed

788
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,319
Speaker 1: a run in over a year, over like a calendar year.

789
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,719
Speaker 1: He had that incredible scoreless streak that is still ongoing.

790
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,360
Speaker 1: When through Jupiter, when he's in Jacksonville, he's in the

791
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,879
Speaker 1: Fall League. When he was in spring training, he's he's

792
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: been unstoppable, and he's a guy that is just I mean,

793
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 1: it's one of the low key, incredible moves that the

794
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 1: organization has made during this entire rebuild. And you mentioned

795
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 1: some of them, like earlier in the pod about some

796
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: some of these trades that are already looking really good for

797
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 1: the team. But when you draft someone like him in

798
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,839
Speaker 1: the seventeenth round of the draft and you have him

799
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: already on the fast track to the majors, it's, I mean,

800
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,239
Speaker 1: that never happens, and that might never happen again. We

801
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,359
Speaker 1: don't know if there's gonna be another draft that goes

802
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,839
Speaker 1: seventeen round steep if if he's coming out this year

803
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 1: would have been undrafted and someone that is uh yeah,

804
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 1: he's pretty great. He's pretty great and doesn't exactly fit

805
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: the pro type for being a lights out closer in

806
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 1: terms of his v low but everything else that you're

807
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 1: looking for three pitches that he really trusts the results

808
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,439
Speaker 1: to match there, and he's uh yeah, he just keeps

809
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,920
Speaker 1: stepping up every time they promote him. He's just more

810
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: and more dominant. So yeah, that's that's a good call

811
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: right there with my seventh round pick. Let's see what

812
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,560
Speaker 1: did I just side on here? I just had it

813
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: in my mind. There still a lot of good directions

814
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 1: to go. Ooh yeah. So I'm gonna go another one

815
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 1: of these major league veterans that you guys are shying

816
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 1: away from. I'm not afraid to embrace the old guys.

817
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: I'm not afraid to live with their decline over the

818
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 1: next handful of years, because this guy brings some of

819
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:08,239
Speaker 1: these intangibles that never declined, that never go away. My

820
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,600
Speaker 1: shortstop is going to be Miguel Rojas, someone that has

821
00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: been with this organization for what about almost six years now,

822
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: and he's the honorary captain of this team. If they

823
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:26,799
Speaker 1: were to name anybody as a captain, someone that not

824
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,720
Speaker 1: that long ago, he had fish stripes blocked on Twitter

825
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 1: and that drove me crazy. But ever since then, he's

826
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:37,040
Speaker 1: so impressive. I lived with that for over a year

827
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,520
Speaker 1: and a half, but we have mended our relationship and

828
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: he's been He's coming off a really good year as

829
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,920
Speaker 1: an overall player. I mean, he ended up batting at

830
00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: the top of the Marlins lineup for most of twenty

831
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: nineteen and his usual excellent defense at shortstop. But you know,

832
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,720
Speaker 1: he has that versatility to play other positions as well.

833
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,800
Speaker 1: I mean, for the sake of this exercise, I'm sticking

834
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,719
Speaker 1: with him at shorts. He's someone that has been so

835
00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 1: smooth at that position, even though he kind of he

836
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:10,759
Speaker 1: doesn't have that amazing athleticism, He doesn't really those those

837
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: individual tools that sometimes make someone a really electrifying defender.

838
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,879
Speaker 1: He overcomes that with just great instincts and a great

839
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,919
Speaker 1: understanding of the game and fundamentals. The kind of work

840
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,280
Speaker 1: that he puts in to be a great fundamental player,

841
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 1: it shows. And that's why he's such a great story

842
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: for someone that didn't have any prospect hype whatsoever when

843
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 1: he was coming up a handful of years ago. He's

844
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 1: been able to overachieve by anybody's expectations and become a

845
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: pretty integral part of the team. So he's going to

846
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 1: be my captain, my seventh round pick, my shortstop, and

847
00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,399
Speaker 1: at this moment about thirty one years old. So I'm

848
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: sticking with him throughout his entire thirties that he could

849
00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 1: have some sort of positive impact in some way throughout

850
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:00,400
Speaker 1: the next decade. Even if it's not every day player.

851
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:09,600
Speaker 4: No, right, I totally totally agree, I know, but go that.

852
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 2: No.

853
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 4: I was just gonna say, like, even though uh, he

854
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 4: too has his blocked at the moment on Twitter, I

855
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,280
Speaker 4: still we still can't discuss Mickey Rose.

856
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:25,480
Speaker 2: You know, yes, I don't know, he didn't we'd ever Like.

857
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 4: The last tweet I ever sent to him before he

858
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:32,360
Speaker 4: blocked us was I called him the like just a captain,

859
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 4: like nothing, a positive tweet and then he blocked me.

860
00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 4: And then I asked him to unblock us.

861
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 2: On my personal account, and then he blocked me there too,

862
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 2: And I think the same thing happened as.

863
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 3: Shame, Yeah I did. It was really a little bit

864
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:50,279
Speaker 3: disappointing to see that. But I'm sure there's something that

865
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 3: he got mixed between the lines of what we may

866
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:56,960
Speaker 3: have really intended or what he took it as personally.

867
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 3: But despite that, like at the end of the day,

868
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 3: Twitter's Twitter. It's a silly place to begin with. But

869
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,280
Speaker 3: if you're talking about ten years down the line for players,

870
00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 3: even if he wasn't, he's a little over the hill.

871
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,920
Speaker 3: As you say, he's thirty one years old. Even if

872
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 3: his abilities don't pan out like right now, he's arguably

873
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 3: the best glove on the team. Like that's not even

874
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:24,400
Speaker 3: it's not hard to realize that. But the most important

875
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,320
Speaker 3: thing he can do for the future of our organization

876
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:30,040
Speaker 3: is welcome the young guys that we're talking about here

877
00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 3: today into what it means to be a major League

878
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:39,040
Speaker 3: baseball player. And he's, as we've all seen, fantastic at

879
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 3: being that guy that everyone should look up to on

880
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:46,879
Speaker 3: the team and being the person that you know, keeps

881
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 3: everyone's heads up during the game. It's going to be

882
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,720
Speaker 3: you know, the Marlins have had long seasons for the past.

883
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,560
Speaker 3: Who knows who can keep counting more how many years?

884
00:46:55,960 --> 00:46:59,799
Speaker 3: And he seems to make those guys out there like

885
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:02,799
Speaker 3: just bring everyone together and have a lot of fun,

886
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:06,800
Speaker 3: you know with the with the the thug life sunglasses

887
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 3: and all that stuff. He's great energy to the team.

888
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:13,879
Speaker 3: And and yeah, as even though despite his age, he's

889
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 3: a fantastic pick for the future.

890
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:21,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, and just going bouncing off that now that it's

891
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 7: like you said, like the intangibles that he brings into

892
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 7: a into a major league clubhouse is second to none.

893
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,319
Speaker 2: He's really accepted that role as the captain.

894
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:29,439
Speaker 1: Of the team.

895
00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:30,439
Speaker 2: He's take.

896
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:35,280
Speaker 9: It's obviously he's taken an inspiration from Derek Jeter. And

897
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 9: you know, he came as as just a throw in

898
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,520
Speaker 9: and the Dee Gordon trade back in twenty fourteen, and he.

899
00:47:41,680 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 7: Was nobody really get it at the time. There wasn't

900
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 7: much of a thought of about him. People more concerned with,

901
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 7: you know, Dee Gordon, right and rightfully so. De Gordon

902
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 7: was a great player for us.

903
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 10: But just to see how far he's come along from that,

904
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 10: you know, putting in the work, you know, improving his

905
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:04,439
Speaker 10: own offense, keeping his defense at the caliber it is.

906
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 2: It's respectable.

907
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 4: I have nothing but respect and I admire him, and

908
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 4: I'm happy that he is in Miami Blue for sure.

909
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,280
Speaker 1: And I'll see what I can do about the Twitter

910
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 1: thing now, because that was in your shoes and it

911
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:23,880
Speaker 1: was frustrating. And we'll see, we'll see, we'll try to

912
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 1: get it figured out. Even though you didn't draft, even

913
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,520
Speaker 1: though you let him fault me in the draft, I'll say,

914
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 1: at the other positive things, put in a good word

915
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: for you. We're in the eighth round of this draft.

916
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,000
Speaker 1: Who who he hauys take with that pick?

917
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,760
Speaker 4: Yes, like you said, we've been kind of shying away

918
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 4: from major league talent in the organization in this draft period.

919
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:46,720
Speaker 2: You know, we've been more focused on the young guys.

920
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:50,479
Speaker 7: Except for Alfaro, he's the only one that has any

921
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,280
Speaker 7: any big league experience on this roster.

922
00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 2: But for the next guy, the same deal with Rohas.

923
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 9: I think he brings in a lot of intangible things,

924
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 9: intangibles to the to the team and the clubhouse.

925
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 4: And I think it's a guy like Corey Dickerson. You know,

926
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 4: he's just signed a two year deal with the Fish.

927
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 2: You know, he's that lefty bat in the lineup, good

928
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 2: corner outfielder, but he's that guy that does that leads

929
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,680
Speaker 2: by example. He doesn't say too much.

930
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,240
Speaker 4: He just goes about his day, you know, does his work,

931
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,320
Speaker 4: and those are things that when you're trying to rebuild

932
00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 4: a franchise in an organization and you're trying to build

933
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,000
Speaker 4: it from the ground up like the Moms are doing.

934
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:30,680
Speaker 2: That's the type of guy you want on your team,

935
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 2: and that's the.

936
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,200
Speaker 4: Type of guy you want around your young prospects because

937
00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 4: that's what that's the mentality and work ethic that you

938
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,399
Speaker 4: need to have to be successful in the big league.

939
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:44,320
Speaker 2: So a guy a team with Corey Dickerson on. It

940
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 2: is a young team. With Corey Dickerson on, it is

941
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:47,840
Speaker 2: a better team.

942
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,840
Speaker 4: So yeah, I got I gotta take him absolutely.

943
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 1: His twenty eighteen season went really under the radar, but

944
00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:58,360
Speaker 1: Dickerson was like on the short list of better corner

945
00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 1: outfielders in baseball in twent not just a great hitter

946
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 1: because he has been a consistent hitter now for most

947
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 1: of his career, but also defensively with the Pirates that year,

948
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:11,359
Speaker 1: a Gold Glove winner at someone that yeah, there are

949
00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:14,279
Speaker 1: some parallels to Rojas in like more ways than one,

950
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: including the fact that, yeah, he doesn't have off the

951
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,640
Speaker 1: charts athleticism. In fact, there was. It wasn't that long

952
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:22,399
Speaker 1: ago when he was with Tampa Bay that they were

953
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,760
Speaker 1: insisting on making him a d h a lot of days.

954
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 1: But the kind of work that he puts into his

955
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,879
Speaker 1: defense and getting good reads off the ball and understanding

956
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:35,480
Speaker 1: how to move efficiently with his body, that route efficiency

957
00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 1: when you're in the outfield and getting under the ball

958
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 1: anyway he can. He's someone that has mastered all that

959
00:50:41,400 --> 00:50:44,360
Speaker 1: to make himself a real big asset out there aside

960
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,520
Speaker 1: from his bat. So as long as he's healthy, I

961
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,040
Speaker 1: mean he is. He's going to be a sneaky value

962
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:53,160
Speaker 1: for you guys forward also on the older side a

963
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 1: little bit. So it's all dependent on, you know, how

964
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 1: much longer you really trust him to maintain this level

965
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 1: of play. Here in the eighth round, for me at

966
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 1: number where we number sixteen overall, I will go with

967
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 1: another outfielder. I only have one outfielder so far, So

968
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:17,960
Speaker 1: my second outfielder, I'm taking Cameron Meisner, who was the

969
00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,960
Speaker 1: first round supplemental pick from the Marlins in the twenty

970
00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 1: nineteen draft, right after JJ Bledet, who was entering like

971
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. He was one of the best collegiate players

972
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:34,160
Speaker 1: in the country, no doubt about it, just extremely off

973
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 1: the charts tools and the potential to stick in center field.

974
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,319
Speaker 1: That's the really important thing for me at this point,

975
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:44,879
Speaker 1: because you guys got Monte and even Bladet has some

976
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:48,279
Speaker 1: potential to play center in an emergency. But when you

977
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,319
Speaker 1: go further down there, there's not all that many guys

978
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 1: if you really trust defensively at all the outfield positions,

979
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,400
Speaker 1: and Meisner is one of them. And he's someone that

980
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 1: fell in the draft because he had that slump in

981
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 1: conference play. In nineteen. The results weren't there, the strikeouts

982
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 1: were a little bit high, but he kind of alleviated

983
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,400
Speaker 1: a lot of those concerns right after the draft. They

984
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,560
Speaker 1: sent them to Low A in Clinton, and he was

985
00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,319
Speaker 1: one of the better players immediately at that level when

986
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 1: they put him there. Just a really well rounded player

987
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:19,400
Speaker 1: who has a great eye at the plate in his

988
00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:23,440
Speaker 1: disciplines who I wouldn't be shocked. I think there is

989
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,280
Speaker 1: a universe where he winds up as the best player

990
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:28,360
Speaker 1: that the Marlins got in the twenty nineteen draft. That

991
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 1: is somewhat of the hot takes and think that he

992
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:34,560
Speaker 1: would ever surpass all day, but he has those kind

993
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 1: of tools and just needs opportunity to adjust to the

994
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 1: pro level. It did, you know, raise a little bit

995
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: of a red flag to me that he wasn't in

996
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,160
Speaker 1: the player pool. You know, the Marlins have a sixty

997
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,000
Speaker 1: man player pool for this season, even guys that they

998
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: know aren't going to be playing in the big leagues.

999
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,400
Speaker 1: They put a lot of their top prospects there and

1000
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 1: they didn't put Meisner there, so that, you know, that

1001
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 1: raised a little bit of a red flag that they

1002
00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 1: weren't able to squeeze him in but I'll be looking

1003
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,279
Speaker 1: at that Leslie to see if he gets in there

1004
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 1: at some point during the season, because that is subject

1005
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:06,319
Speaker 1: to change if he puts it all together. I think

1006
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:09,640
Speaker 1: he is an all star caliber player, just a great

1007
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:14,879
Speaker 1: outfielder that really crushes the ball. He crushes the ball.

1008
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:18,840
Speaker 1: He plays every outfield position, and I like what I

1009
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:22,920
Speaker 1: saw from him in limited action in twenty nineteen. We're

1010
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,719
Speaker 1: now two thirds of the way through the draft, and

1011
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 1: so I'll get a little recap of the positions that

1012
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 1: we have available. So you guys got you got your shortstop,

1013
00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:36,319
Speaker 1: you got your catcher, you got your starting pitcher, your

1014
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:40,920
Speaker 1: relief pitcher, your designated hitter, you got all three of

1015
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,440
Speaker 1: your outfielder. So you guys still have a first baseman,

1016
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:49,560
Speaker 1: second baseman, a third baseman, and a wild card to pick.

1017
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:53,160
Speaker 1: And I still have who do I still have? I

1018
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:58,680
Speaker 1: still have one outfielder I have. I got one more

1019
00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:03,520
Speaker 1: outfielder to pick and d H and a relief pitcher

1020
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 1: and a catcher. So we are entering round nine of

1021
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:12,319
Speaker 1: this draft, four more rounds to go. Oh what do

1022
00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 1: you got?

1023
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,000
Speaker 11: Well, to be honest, you did you kind of uh

1024
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 11: did us dirty on first base because Lewin that vote,

1025
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 11: it's we're just kidding. But I guess at first base

1026
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,240
Speaker 11: we'll go back with major league talent with Garrett Cooper.

1027
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:34,680
Speaker 11: I know there's a lot of concerns about, you know,

1028
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:38,040
Speaker 11: his ability to stay healthy, uh for a full major

1029
00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:40,399
Speaker 11: league season, But like Cooper said, a lot of those

1030
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 11: injuries that have put on the sidelines for a while

1031
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:46,719
Speaker 11: have been freak occurrences. You know, a pitcher throwing a

1032
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 11: ball up and then I would hit his hand or

1033
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:50,799
Speaker 11: or anything like that. Stuff that's kind of out of

1034
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 11: his control and not necessarily his own fault.

1035
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:55,960
Speaker 2: At the moment. I still I still believe in him.

1036
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,359
Speaker 2: I think he could put I think he.

1037
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:00,680
Speaker 4: Has the ability to stay healthy over the course of

1038
00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 4: a major league season. He's you know, he's got the

1039
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:06,520
Speaker 4: bat that he and he could play decent first base.

1040
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 2: He cand dh if he if you know, his defense

1041
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:15,400
Speaker 2: isn't up the par and yeah no. And I think

1042
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:17,239
Speaker 2: I'm not sure how old he is.

1043
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,280
Speaker 4: I think he's either twenty nine or probably like thirty,

1044
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:25,600
Speaker 4: not sure exactly. But another guy that you see like

1045
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:30,239
Speaker 4: around the clubhouse puts in works hard. Another guy that

1046
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:33,240
Speaker 4: I think you know adds to the clubhouse culture.

1047
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,839
Speaker 2: And you know, and I think he makes a team better.

1048
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 2: So yeah, Cooper first.

1049
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:42,480
Speaker 1: Favorite home run this year courtesy of Garrett Cooper.

1050
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 4: He sends one deep to the left center field that's gone.

1051
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:53,960
Speaker 2: Solo hover for Garrett Cooper.

1052
00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:54,960
Speaker 4: Is he eleven?

1053
00:55:57,360 --> 00:56:00,920
Speaker 1: So with my ninth round pick, I finally have to

1054
00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:03,840
Speaker 1: pick up a relief pitcher, and I'm going to convert

1055
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 1: a starting pitcher into a reliever. It's going to be

1056
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:10,919
Speaker 1: George Guzman, someone that also has a Yankee connection, of course,

1057
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,759
Speaker 1: acquired in the gian Carlo Stanton trade and had it

1058
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 1: was coming off a great year in the minor leagues

1059
00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:18,839
Speaker 1: when the Marlins acquired him. Then took a pretty big

1060
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 1: step back in twenty eighteen, his first year in the

1061
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:25,040
Speaker 1: Marlins organization, and then took another step forward in twenty nineteen.

1062
00:56:25,080 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 1: He spent all last year at Double A, and it

1063
00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 1: was such a complicated year because on one hands, he

1064
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,680
Speaker 1: threw a ton of innings. He threw about one hundred

1065
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 1: and thirty innings in the minors, which is hard to

1066
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,320
Speaker 1: do because it's a short season and you're supposed to

1067
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: be really protective of people's arms. But yet he put

1068
00:56:43,560 --> 00:56:46,760
Speaker 1: in that really big workload at the double A level,

1069
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 1: and he had some hot stretches towards the end of

1070
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:53,200
Speaker 1: the twenty nineteen season where he was unhittable, and I

1071
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,839
Speaker 1: mean that literally where he would he pitched I think

1072
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 1: multiple starts where he made it through six innings and

1073
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,040
Speaker 1: he didn't allow a hit, and so there was some

1074
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,040
Speaker 1: good luck going along with there. But more so I

1075
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:06,880
Speaker 1: think that has a lot to do with the stuff

1076
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:10,160
Speaker 1: that he has. Fastball that reaches into the triple digits,

1077
00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:14,279
Speaker 1: a great slider, and ultimately I think he winds up

1078
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,840
Speaker 1: in the bullpen. I mean, I think that's pretty popular

1079
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:20,000
Speaker 1: opinion at this point, just because beyond those two pitches,

1080
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 1: there's a lot of question marks. His control is really

1081
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 1: if he the changeup is really if he but he's

1082
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:31,919
Speaker 1: if he's just able to focus on his strengths out

1083
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:35,439
Speaker 1: of the bullpen, and he's someone that is a really

1084
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:39,080
Speaker 1: intimidating presence on the mound. I think he's he might

1085
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,600
Speaker 1: be one of the heaviest pitchers in the entire organization.

1086
00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 1: He's built thick, he's strong, he's and if he's just

1087
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 1: limited into this short relief role, then he's the guy

1088
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,920
Speaker 1: that is going to be totally overpowering even if he

1089
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:54,920
Speaker 1: doesn't know exactly where the pitch is going. So I

1090
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:58,200
Speaker 1: trust him. I trust his prospect pedigree. He's a guy

1091
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,000
Speaker 1: that's been a top thirty Marlins probably stick throughout the

1092
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:03,560
Speaker 1: entire process. In fact, I mean when the guy originally

1093
00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:06,360
Speaker 1: he was, when this farm system was like at its

1094
00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:09,640
Speaker 1: lowest point, he was one of these standout guys. There

1095
00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 1: was a time where he was right there with Sandy

1096
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: in terms of the top pitching prospect in the entire organization.

1097
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:19,720
Speaker 1: And so there have been some setbacks since then. But

1098
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:24,080
Speaker 1: I like what he does well. He does really really well,

1099
00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: and I'm not so concerned with all the other stuff.

1100
00:58:26,280 --> 00:58:28,480
Speaker 1: I'm going to stick him into the bullpen. He's going

1101
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:30,960
Speaker 1: to be my closer, and we're just gonna hope for

1102
00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 1: the best. We're gonna hope that he doesn't he doesn't

1103
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,920
Speaker 1: hit too many batters that if he's able to throw

1104
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 1: it anywhere near the plate, he's going to get some

1105
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 1: good results. He's my ninth round pick as we swing

1106
00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:42,640
Speaker 1: it back to you.

1107
00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 4: So basically what you're saying is the Marlins won the

1108
00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 4: stand in trade.

1109
00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:51,240
Speaker 1: We're in good shape. We're in good.

1110
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:53,600
Speaker 3: Shape this juggle.

1111
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:54,440
Speaker 2: I'm just messing with you.

1112
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:59,640
Speaker 4: Our next pick we're going with Isandias at second base.

1113
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:04,120
Speaker 4: Came in the Yells trade. He Minor League Player of

1114
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:08,080
Speaker 4: the Year for the Marvels last year twenty nineteen. He hit,

1115
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:12,720
Speaker 4: He hit twenty five bombs, hit over three hundred, had

1116
00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:14,720
Speaker 4: a good on base percentage, and he just had a

1117
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:15,560
Speaker 4: really good year in.

1118
00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:16,400
Speaker 2: Triple A last year.

1119
00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it hasn't necessarily translated very well into the

1120
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,479
Speaker 4: big leagues yet, you know, and his very short time

1121
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:28,680
Speaker 4: in the majors. But I think he's gonna take some

1122
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 4: strikes forward. I think he's gonna be able to learn

1123
00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:35,640
Speaker 4: to hit major league pitching and be able to hit

1124
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 4: the ball the other way.

1125
00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 2: You know, we all there's.

1126
00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,440
Speaker 4: No question about his power to the pull side, But

1127
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 4: now the question is whether or not he can stay

1128
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:45,640
Speaker 4: back hit secondary pitches and drive him the other way,

1129
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 4: because he has good power all around. And I think

1130
00:59:48,560 --> 00:59:50,640
Speaker 4: if once he learns how to do that, I think

1131
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:51,440
Speaker 4: he'll be.

1132
00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 2: A much more complete hitter. And I think his defense

1133
00:59:56,440 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 2: is you know, it's it's good. He makes the routine.

1134
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:04,480
Speaker 6: Plays, and I just like him, and I think I

1135
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 6: think he's gonna be a good ball player.

1136
01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 1: He was the organization's Minor League player of the Year.

1137
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I know that the numbers once he got

1138
01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,800
Speaker 1: called up can really scare you away, but you look

1139
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:19,040
Speaker 1: at the larger sample size, and last year was just

1140
01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 1: a huge success story for him, even if the results

1141
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:24,040
Speaker 1: were there in the majors. I mean, he saw against

1142
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of the best prospects in the minors.

1143
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,040
Speaker 1: He was crushing the ball. And when you get that

1144
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 1: type of power from second base, that's something that Marlins

1145
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:37,080
Speaker 1: have not had since like Dan Uggla, I mean, it's

1146
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:40,120
Speaker 1: very rare to find. And he's he's been a guy

1147
01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,160
Speaker 1: that has shown those great tools like almost throughout his

1148
01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:46,920
Speaker 1: entire pro career. So there's there's very good reason to

1149
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:49,560
Speaker 1: believe that, Yeah, he's gonna get a lot better based

1150
01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: on where he is now in the middle of the

1151
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:57,160
Speaker 1: tenth rounds here in the Marlins Dream Draft, and I'm

1152
01:00:57,320 --> 01:01:00,720
Speaker 1: gonna go I'm gonna take a big swing year. I'm

1153
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:02,880
Speaker 1: gonna really bet on a guy that we don't know

1154
01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,600
Speaker 1: very much about. I think he's the youngest guy that's

1155
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:09,400
Speaker 1: been taken in this draft by far. He is outfielder

1156
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:18,080
Speaker 1: Victor Mesa junior started right, He's my card he's eighteen

1157
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:23,480
Speaker 1: years old. Eighteen years old, and he's an incredible follow

1158
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:26,560
Speaker 1: on Instagram. Anybody that's on Instagram. You know about Victor

1159
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:30,200
Speaker 1: Masa Junior. He's obviously overshadowed by his brother, by Victor

1160
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:34,360
Speaker 1: Victor Mesa, who got the much larger signing bonus, who

1161
01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 1: had a great track record in Cuba. We didn't know

1162
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:39,680
Speaker 1: much about the younger brother, but at this point, I

1163
01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:43,440
Speaker 1: think it's clear that if you want to bet on

1164
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:45,600
Speaker 1: one of those guys moving forward, it would definitely be

1165
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: the younger brother. He shows a beautiful swing from the

1166
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:52,000
Speaker 1: left handed side. He's still got some potential, maybe not

1167
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:54,400
Speaker 1: to stick in center field, but he's going to be

1168
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:57,360
Speaker 1: someone that does help you defensively in the corner spots.

1169
01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:01,320
Speaker 1: And he's so young. I mean, it's we need to

1170
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 1: emphasize again, eighteen years old. There's so much that's going

1171
01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:07,440
Speaker 1: to change between now and when he reaches the majors.

1172
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:10,840
Speaker 1: If you're being really optimistic on it, maybe he's two

1173
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:13,520
Speaker 1: years away, but more likely three or four years away.

1174
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,120
Speaker 1: I'm not actually breaking through. We know how much outfield

1175
01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 1: depth has this organization has, and so overall we've what

1176
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:22,920
Speaker 1: picked out like seven outfielders in this organization if you

1177
01:02:22,920 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 1: include Gerrar being one of those guys. And I think

1178
01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:29,440
Speaker 1: he's definitely one of the seven in this organization that

1179
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:32,520
Speaker 1: I trust the long term and that I would want

1180
01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:35,520
Speaker 1: to build around. So we'll see, there's a lot of

1181
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:39,080
Speaker 1: risk here. Realistically. This is always something that I like

1182
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 1: to reinforce, is the percentage of prospects that don't ultimately

1183
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 1: reach their potential for whatever variety of reasons. So there's

1184
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 1: a lot that can happen, a lot of volatility with him.

1185
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,920
Speaker 1: There is a decent chance he doesn't reach the majors

1186
01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:53,439
Speaker 1: in the first place, because so much can happen over

1187
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:57,280
Speaker 1: those next few years. But I really like his work ethic.

1188
01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:00,880
Speaker 1: I like them the relationships he's building within the organization,

1189
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:03,680
Speaker 1: both with coaches and with some of his teammates. He's

1190
01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:06,720
Speaker 1: he's doing all the little things that are right so far,

1191
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:08,600
Speaker 1: and we'll just have to get a better idea of

1192
01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 1: him once he's playing against higher level competition.

1193
01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:15,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I agree. I like Victor makes a junior

1194
01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:19,360
Speaker 4: a lot. Definitely a lot of concern about his older brother,

1195
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,000
Speaker 4: whether or not he could hit for power or hit

1196
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:25,960
Speaker 4: for extra bases. But I don't think that will be

1197
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:28,000
Speaker 4: the same problem for his brother. I mean, like you said,

1198
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:31,080
Speaker 4: a lot of volatility, but I think I think his

1199
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:36,720
Speaker 4: ceiling is higher than his older brother if anything. And

1200
01:03:36,760 --> 01:03:39,480
Speaker 4: I'm just I'm just excited to see him progress through

1201
01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:43,400
Speaker 4: the system, very excited to see him. But for our

1202
01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 4: next pick for a wild card, we're gonna take Braxton Garrett.

1203
01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1204
01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:53,080
Speaker 4: I saw him pitch in Jupiter and he just blew

1205
01:03:53,160 --> 01:03:56,440
Speaker 4: me away that he was just mowing down headers.

1206
01:03:56,440 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 2: He just he's gonna be good. That's all I can

1207
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:05,840
Speaker 2: really say about it. He just I really like him. Yeah,

1208
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 2: And this was Shane's pick. He made a good call

1209
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:08,880
Speaker 2: on this one.

1210
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:12,400
Speaker 3: We did have we did have Mesa junior, but you

1211
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:13,560
Speaker 3: snacked that away from.

1212
01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:14,160
Speaker 6: Us for the while.

1213
01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:19,280
Speaker 3: But no bracing year for sure, I gotta we gotta

1214
01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 3: go with him for a wild guard. As far as

1215
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 3: what we have remaining, what do we have?

1216
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:26,880
Speaker 2: Third base, third base, left, third base left? Yeah, yeah.

1217
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:30,840
Speaker 1: Down to the three overall picks, you got three looseman,

1218
01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick between a d H and a catcher

1219
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 1: and yeah, I guess just a little note on Brax

1220
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:40,240
Speaker 1: and Garrett the well, technically he's still the reigning champion.

1221
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:41,800
Speaker 1: You know, every year the Marlins are supposed to have

1222
01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:45,600
Speaker 1: this ping pong tournament in springt training between every major

1223
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:48,920
Speaker 1: leaguers and the minor leaguers. And he won in twenty nineteen.

1224
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,720
Speaker 1: Remember this was fresh off of Tommy John surgery. He

1225
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:54,720
Speaker 1: hadn't even pitched in any official games in a year

1226
01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,440
Speaker 1: and a half, but he was totally up to speed. Yeah,

1227
01:04:57,520 --> 01:04:59,600
Speaker 1: playing ping pong, and he played. I think he plays

1228
01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 1: right hand even though he is a lefty. As you mentioned,

1229
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:08,360
Speaker 1: he'd beat for the championship. Yeah, that's right, and even

1230
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:10,840
Speaker 1: him pretty easily too. It wasn't like that much of

1231
01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:14,760
Speaker 1: a close call. So he's I really like him a lot. Yeah,

1232
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 1: aside from obviously being a good pitcher, only twenty two

1233
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:21,160
Speaker 1: years old, he's got a really bright future. Former first

1234
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 1: round pick, and it's been a while since they took

1235
01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:26,040
Speaker 1: him in the first round, but he's gonna live up

1236
01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,680
Speaker 1: to that potential. I have no doubt about it. With

1237
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:32,160
Speaker 1: my second to last pick here in the eleventh rounds,

1238
01:05:32,360 --> 01:05:35,920
Speaker 1: I'm going with a designated hitter. He's normally an outfielder,

1239
01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:39,000
Speaker 1: you know, outfielders so far in the organization, but I

1240
01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 1: believe ultimately best utilized as dh peyden verdict. Who is

1241
01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:48,400
Speaker 1: the third round Marlins draft pick in twenty nineteen, who

1242
01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,960
Speaker 1: was I already picked Cameron Meisner from the same draft.

1243
01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:55,720
Speaker 1: The only reason why Burdick comes a little lower from

1244
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 1: me as a priority is just because not entirely sure

1245
01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:01,160
Speaker 1: where he fits defensively. He is a little bit older

1246
01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:03,560
Speaker 1: as a guy that spent an extra year in college

1247
01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:07,720
Speaker 1: before he came out of Wright State. He was last

1248
01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,880
Speaker 1: year in the minor leagues one of the best players

1249
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:13,560
Speaker 1: period in all minor league baseball. Last year he was

1250
01:06:13,640 --> 01:06:17,520
Speaker 1: a sensation. We had a guy out there in Clinton, Iowa,

1251
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,200
Speaker 1: where the Morholins have their low A affiliate, that was

1252
01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:23,840
Speaker 1: watching him every day, and he couldn't speak highly enough

1253
01:06:23,880 --> 01:06:29,360
Speaker 1: of this guy. What he does offensively was unfair. It

1254
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:32,400
Speaker 1: was Yeah, it was really dangerous. I think it was

1255
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:36,760
Speaker 1: honestly dangerous to have him facing pitchers that young and

1256
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 1: that inexperienced, because he may have left like some permanent

1257
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:44,080
Speaker 1: damage on them with how much he demoralized them. He

1258
01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:48,280
Speaker 1: was that good an ops around nine point fifty playing

1259
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:51,440
Speaker 1: at the low A level, and that carried over to

1260
01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:53,440
Speaker 1: the playoffs. They made it to the playoffs that year

1261
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:57,520
Speaker 1: with him leading the charge just dominated from the moment

1262
01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:00,560
Speaker 1: that he got into pro ball, and a guy that

1263
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:03,760
Speaker 1: I feel the only reason that he fell to the

1264
01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:06,120
Speaker 1: Marlins in real life in the NIB draft is because

1265
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:07,800
Speaker 1: it came from a small school. They didn't know how

1266
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:09,800
Speaker 1: much weight to put into the results he had there.

1267
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:14,000
Speaker 1: But that stuff translates, and I'm confident in his bat.

1268
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:16,680
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not totally sure about everything else, but

1269
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:20,160
Speaker 1: his work ethic is incredible, both in the weight room

1270
01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:23,720
Speaker 1: and just with all the other little things he does

1271
01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:27,200
Speaker 1: to try to hustle on the field. The kind of

1272
01:07:27,280 --> 01:07:30,160
Speaker 1: effort that he plays with really shines through. That's probably

1273
01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:32,240
Speaker 1: the first thing that jumps out to me when I

1274
01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:34,840
Speaker 1: saw him running down the first baseline after like a

1275
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,520
Speaker 1: little dribbler in front of the pictures now and beating

1276
01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:41,240
Speaker 1: that out. The kind of hustle that he shows playing

1277
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:44,040
Speaker 1: even in the low minor leagues where he doesn't probably

1278
01:07:44,040 --> 01:07:46,400
Speaker 1: think anybody is watching him. I'm one of the few

1279
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,800
Speaker 1: guys actually watching those games. And the type of effort

1280
01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:53,560
Speaker 1: that he showed even to try to contribute as an

1281
01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:56,120
Speaker 1: outfielder as best he can. He does have a really

1282
01:07:56,160 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 1: strong throwing arm. He's someone that's going to get the

1283
01:07:58,400 --> 01:08:02,520
Speaker 1: absolute most that visibility, and the Marlins speak very highly

1284
01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:05,720
Speaker 1: of him. So he checks a lot of the boxes

1285
01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:08,400
Speaker 1: that you want. So much outfield depth in this organization.

1286
01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly how much playing time is going

1287
01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:12,600
Speaker 1: to be there for a right handed hitter, for someone

1288
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,919
Speaker 1: that's a little bit older relative to his experience level,

1289
01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:19,599
Speaker 1: But as I said, he's gonna do everything he can

1290
01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:22,360
Speaker 1: to figure it out and carve out a role, and

1291
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:25,640
Speaker 1: at the very least he's gonna hit some really entertaining

1292
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,000
Speaker 1: tape measure home runs. The same kind of guy that

1293
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:31,439
Speaker 1: Gerra is, except a few rounds later here in our

1294
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:35,919
Speaker 1: dream draft, entering the final round, final round, tough decisions

1295
01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:36,479
Speaker 1: here at the end.

1296
01:08:36,520 --> 01:08:43,920
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, Jacob, who we got for third?

1297
01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:48,120
Speaker 4: Well, for a third base, we're actually gonna convert this

1298
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:51,760
Speaker 4: shortstop to play this position. We're going with twenty year

1299
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:55,880
Speaker 4: old Jose Devers came along in the Stanton trade, and

1300
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:58,400
Speaker 4: he's young, twenty.

1301
01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:02,640
Speaker 7: Years old, and he's playing and high A and he

1302
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:03,679
Speaker 7: played in Hia Jupiter.

1303
01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:05,559
Speaker 2: I think he's down, and I think then he go

1304
01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 2: down to Clinton.

1305
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:08,840
Speaker 10: I'm not sure about where he's supposed to be at

1306
01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:09,960
Speaker 10: right now, in the organization.

1307
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,839
Speaker 2: But no, it's just this guy is really exciting.

1308
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:17,160
Speaker 6: He he could run, he has he's a good glove

1309
01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:21,800
Speaker 6: and shortstop, he makes good contact, and I think I

1310
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:24,080
Speaker 6: think he's a guy that will be a really good

1311
01:09:24,120 --> 01:09:25,439
Speaker 6: long term piece for any team.

1312
01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:27,240
Speaker 2: So yeah, Jose Devers.

1313
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 1: So we go to our final pick of the Marlins

1314
01:09:31,120 --> 01:09:34,000
Speaker 1: stream draft. I need to finally get my catcher, and

1315
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:38,080
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Will Banfield, who's another young guy at

1316
01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:40,639
Speaker 1: the same age as Devers, a part of the Marlins

1317
01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:46,200
Speaker 1: playpool this year, who is extremely advanced defensively, someone that

1318
01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:51,040
Speaker 1: was so advanced and had such a strong opportunity to

1319
01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:53,519
Speaker 1: go on to college and play at Vanderbilt where so

1320
01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:56,960
Speaker 1: many other great like amateur players go to. That people

1321
01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:58,680
Speaker 1: didn't think the Marlins would be able to sign him

1322
01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 1: when they drafted him what a couple of years ago

1323
01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:04,040
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, but they put down the money that

1324
01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:06,599
Speaker 1: it took. They made a big investment in him long term.

1325
01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 1: And that's the thing is he's going to be a

1326
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 1: long term project. He's not going to be my catcher

1327
01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:15,280
Speaker 1: in the major leagues for the next two years, might

1328
01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:18,600
Speaker 1: even take three years, but he's going to be there eventually,

1329
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:23,400
Speaker 1: because what type of ability that he shows defensively in

1330
01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:26,320
Speaker 1: all aspects of defense. Someone that threw out about fifty

1331
01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 1: percent of attempted base dealers last year fifty percent. Like

1332
01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:34,240
Speaker 1: playing at a low level of the minor leagues, where

1333
01:10:34,280 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 1: the pitchers don't necessarily pay that much attention to base runners,

1334
01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:39,639
Speaker 1: you're kind of doing it on your own as a catcher,

1335
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:42,120
Speaker 1: trying to give yourself a chance to cut down the

1336
01:10:42,200 --> 01:10:44,760
Speaker 1: running game. But he showed so much talent with that

1337
01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:48,960
Speaker 1: his blocking ability. He does so much to help you

1338
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:51,080
Speaker 1: win games. And that's the stuff that's so hard to

1339
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:53,800
Speaker 1: quantify because I'm kind of nerdy when it comes to this.

1340
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 1: I love to quantify stuff. I like to put numbers

1341
01:10:56,120 --> 01:10:58,160
Speaker 1: next to things, but with him, it's so much that

1342
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:01,719
Speaker 1: you actually can't do it. And in the same way,

1343
01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:04,400
Speaker 1: I really trust, I trust him anyway to be big

1344
01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,880
Speaker 1: contributor moving forward, because that catcher position is there's so

1345
01:11:07,920 --> 01:11:10,639
Speaker 1: many aspects to it, and he seems to have them

1346
01:11:10,640 --> 01:11:14,640
Speaker 1: all mastered. Aside from everything he shows on the field defensively,

1347
01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,360
Speaker 1: pitchers love to work with him and that's something you

1348
01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:20,200
Speaker 1: really can't put big enough value on that he makes

1349
01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,840
Speaker 1: pictures comfortable. He knows how to work to their strengths,

1350
01:11:23,320 --> 01:11:25,960
Speaker 1: and that's why he's part of their player pool this year.

1351
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:30,120
Speaker 1: Even though he's very inexperienced. He's someone that they want

1352
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:32,760
Speaker 1: around their best top pitching prospects. They think they'll work

1353
01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:36,880
Speaker 1: well together and they think that's going to be so

1354
01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:39,599
Speaker 1: critical into the future of the organization that have him around.

1355
01:11:40,360 --> 01:11:43,080
Speaker 1: And when he does make contact with the ball, he

1356
01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:45,839
Speaker 1: hits it a long way. It's some there's some Jorge

1357
01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:48,840
Speaker 1: al Farro tendencies with him at the plate where not

1358
01:11:49,080 --> 01:11:51,040
Speaker 1: always swinging at the right pitches at this stage of

1359
01:11:51,040 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 1: his career. When he does, he does huge damage. So

1360
01:11:55,200 --> 01:12:02,360
Speaker 1: he's I can see that kind of future for him.

1361
01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 1: Let's give everybody a recap of what we did here.

1362
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:08,360
Speaker 1: This was a beautiful mess, but it was beautiful because

1363
01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 1: these are some players. Twenty four picks, twelve on each team,

1364

Speaker 1: Edward Cabrera, Lewin Diaz, JJ bl Day, Jonathan vr Monte,

1366

Speaker 1: Harrison HAYESU Sanchez, Gerar and Cronacio and Max Meyer, Alex Vesia,

1367
01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:34,480
Speaker 1: Miguel Rojas, Corey Dickerson, Cameron Meisner, Garrett Cooper, George Guzman,

1368
01:12:34,960 --> 01:12:39,280
Speaker 1: Isan Diez, Victor Masson Junior. Oh boy, boy, I forgot

1369
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 1: to write I forgot to write down your last two

1370
01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:46,400
Speaker 1: picks out the re Listen to the recording at the

1371
01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:49,320
Speaker 1: end to oh Braxon, Garrett was the wild.

1372
01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:53,720
Speaker 12: Card and Devers at third base, comparing him to the

1373
01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:57,240
Speaker 12: third base. All right, to go to go along with

1374

01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:08,479
Speaker 12: lives on Twitter.

1378
01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:10,479
Speaker 1: Went not a little bit more. We're gonna post this
