Heard about that. Wasn’t it like 4 homeruns in his first 5 at-bats or something like that?

"Reports" are that he is going to stay in the FO, so take that with a grain of salt seeing that it is coming from Fish on First.

Analytics team used to be like 2 dudes, now there's much more and they're trying to get to the level of most-other clubs. He loves Gabe and thinks he has a lot of creative ideas. He vouched a lot for Griffin, says he's a very talented and hard-working player. Thinks Mesa Jr. will be up next year (if not traded). Wished Bleday, Nassim, and others worked out here. Really supports how much more this regime is into putting money on the international side. David Ott is the 2nd largest owner of the Marlins (prefers to be behind the scenes), he's very analytical/data-driven and might have clashed with Jeter (may be part of the reason Jeter left). I may or may not have confused some parts with this other podcast I listened to after that one...

Speaking of Angels, I bet they win the 1st pick.

Joe Maddon

According to always right Craig Mish, the choice "won't be internal". .....So it'll be Gabe Kapler for sure then!

I find it hard to believe Mel wanted out with 1 year left on contract, and Sandy coming back next year. He already put up with 100 losses. If Bendix decided to fire Mel, it is going to go down as a horrible decision. What an idiot.

Its not a guarantee we get #1 Overall, right? I think we end up getting unlucky and can't get him.

We're not getting Ethan Holliday.

Ok, so they didn't trade Luzardo. That means... Marlins 2026 WS Champs!

I'm just here to check if we like this trade.

If only the team coming to Vegas wasn't a worse owner and FO than the Marlins. I'm still praying it all breaks down gloriously and Vegas gets an expansion team so I can be done with this one.

This is what adds to the pain for a lot of fans, I believe. It's not just that they trade the expensive, almost-free-agent players. A lot of the times they trade the like-able ones too (whether warranted or not). 0 efforts in wanting to stay in the good graces of fans. I know it's a business but at least some ballclubs make a 10% or 20% effort. This is why fans don't show up.

I like them. But I like my Golden Knights more. I'll still be lurking and creeping around this site, so maybe I'm a masochist also...

They traded Arraez in May... In May!! I need to focus on other things in my life as it is, so no matter how much it pains me.. I need to stop paying close attention to this team.

This team is hot garbage.

Got me that new one from Homage. I'm already having trouble justifying when it'll make sense to wear a big, bright Teal, jacket in scorching Las Vegas.

Debating on driving out there, from LV, for one of those. Never been to Chase Field.

Perfect occasion to wear this bad boy...

He still has a home there. He's going to lie down.

I was thinking the exact same thing!

Sir, I hardly know her.
