  Speaker 4: The thing that like really threw me off is that
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: he brought his son in. It's my first spring ever.

  Speaker 4: good time.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: No, you weren't scared, bro, Listen, listen.

  Speaker 3: No besides me, stop it. Listen, dude.
• 2:39
  Speaker 6: I love all the younger guys and just like Cratzy
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: too as well.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Dude.
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: We tried breaking you guys in a little bit so
• 2:44
  Speaker 6: you felt comfortable.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: It's a different ball game up there, dude, and especially
• 2:49
  Speaker 6: you know with the times of what was going on
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: and what was that two thousand.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And that was twenty twenty.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: Man, there's twenty twenty, yeah, right on the dome.
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: So listen, if you ever felt scared, I wish you
• 3:02
  Speaker 6: would have came to me a little bit more. But
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: you look like you knew what you were doing. Even
• 3:05
  Speaker 6: if you were scared.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: You acted like you belonging where you started and where
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: you're at now.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Dude.
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: I'm proud of you, man, because I know you're an
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: absolute beast, and I'm sorry my son took the hundred
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: bucks from you.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: We'll get it back to you.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Hey, I'm I'm not playing with him anymore.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: Let me.
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: I want to talk about trust too. I mean, you're
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: talking about being scared and trust. You talk about how
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: you know one of your coaches is really helped you
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: out a little bit with your catcher in that kind
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: of game. You know, I understand as a pitcher's perspective,
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: the trust you have with your catcher has to be
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: spot on and for you sometimes you know, you want
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: to do a little bit too much, or you want, hey,
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: maybe this and there, but you have to let go
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: and let your catcher do his job. So talk a
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: little about that and how you've gotten more confident in that.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, of course then.
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: I mean I think it was against the Athletics my
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: last out two outings ago, kind of had a little hiccup.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: It was the fourth thing I went out there, men
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: got on base, and being a sinker ball guy that
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: I am, being the contact pitcher than I am, you know,
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: obviously I don't want to the guy advance. So so
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: I had to swallow my pride a little bit and say,
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: like the next day.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: There was some fear there of letting the runner advance
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: and letting guys get on.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: But I got a Joe mack here who's unbelievable behind
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: the dish, and uh, that's like the very first thing
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: that we talked about, Like I was being way too
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: quick to the plate, and that was taking a hit
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: on my stuff. It was taking a hit on my command.
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: And then I just ended up giving up free passes.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: So Joe can't even do a job at that point anymore.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: And they said, hey, man, like nobody's running off of
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: this guy. You got to understand that. And when people
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: do run, he's he wants them to. That's something he
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: always talks about, is I want people to run. So
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: I mean, that's just helped me build a lot of
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: trust in there and me and Joe. Whenever he isn't playing,
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: we'll talk on the bench just if I ever do
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: get into a jam, ways that he can help mechanisms
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: he can use to to get me to just stay confident.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: But the end of the day, when you have a
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: guy that's gonna throw somebody out, whatever percentage he's throwing
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: out higher than a lot of other guys, makes me
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: feel better. You know, just do my job, throw the
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: ball over the plate. If they want to run, please
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: please give it a chance, you know, give it a try.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: Talk about Joe Mack. Talk about him because people that
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: they are not Marlins fans or Catching fans, because if
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: you're catching fan, you should know who Joe Mack is. Like, Yeah,
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: this dude is the real deal. But talk about him
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: as a rookie having these conversations with you behind a dish.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, gosh, guy is a goofball. I'm gonna
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna put it right out there.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: He's a goofle Love him, Love him to death.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: Though, And that's like the energy that I want because
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: him being a goofble on, him being like a little
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: bit naive if you will, that makes him eager to
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: just continue to learn.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: You know. That's the thing that's that's cool.
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: Yesterday in between innings, you know, we're watching, we're getting
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: excited for runs, whatever it is. But then out of nowhere,
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: we'll just start talking about like, hey, this is what
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: I need you to do, this is the setup I
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: need you to give me. Or he's talking about like
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: what he sees from the base runner on first just
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: like the most random stuff you could think of. But
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: he wants to get better every single day and he
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: wants he wants to serve.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: And that's I think that's the biggest thing that a catcher.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: Could could want, you know, when you're talking about the
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: best in the game.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: It's something that I've learned back in the day.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: It's always like, hey, we're here to serve, you know,
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: like you have to be selfish in this game. But
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: at the same time, as a catcher, you're there for
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: the entire team. You're watching the whole rest of the
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: eight guys, you see the whole field. You're there to serve,
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: and especially for our pitchers, just being able to get
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: us on track. That's that's gonna be the biggest thing
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: for him to just continue to learn, is how to
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: go and talk with the picture in between innings or
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: when they get into a jam.
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: All right, Well, you talked about his throwing ability, and
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: I'm going to swing another question. Have you seen anybody
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: throw like him in the game? Because right now, Joe
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: mack leads the league in caught stealing, not percentage, but
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: in guys thrown out. I think he's got like seventeen
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: dudes Hey's thrown out and he didn't get called.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Up till May.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Have I seen anyone throw like him? I mean,
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: obviously I was around JT was. He was awesome to have.
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: But Joe does some some different stuff, man, Like I
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: remember seeing a video of him in triple A, like
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: he was looking at third and he somehow like did
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: like a little snake guys moving through it.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: The second. Got a guy.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: A few games ago against the Cardinals, I was pitching,
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: I was out of the game at this point, did
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: a backpick the third. It's just like you don't even
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: see it, like from the sideline, you know, Like it's
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: just the quickest snap throws.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: It's the quickest pop time I've seen in a long time.
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: And it's a lot of fun to watch, at least,
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: I guess if you can't see it, if.
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: You so so, my question to you is, I'm not
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: sure if you were going to come on here as
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: a starter or as a lever, so as a catcher.
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: Are you different personalities, Because for Joe Mack being a rookie,
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: if I'm like constantly catching all Tyler Phillips starts, since
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: you've been a starter since most of his Big League
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: time so far, and then all of a sudden they
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: shift you back to the bullpen. Is he gonna have
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: to look at a different guy? Is he gonna have
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: to approach you different?
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Like?
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: What is what is this energy that you're putting out
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: from from both sides of your pitcher persona.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: I mean from the bullpen. I do feel like an
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: animal coming out of the gate there. I don't know
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: something about the adrenaline, Like if you ever seen the
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: movie Split, Like I feel like the Split guy just
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: like getting bigger, you know, like you coming out of
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: that Gate's it's a different feeling. But we do try
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: to be the same every every time. I know that's
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: like a kind of a boring answer, but the same
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: thing out of the As a starter, we're trying to
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: preach me feeling that animal the whole time. Granted, bullpen,
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: you're throwing one to two to three innings starting, you're
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: trying to go five, six, seven innings, so it is
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: a little bit harder to sustain and like maintain that mentality.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: You get tired. It's like kind of a mental grind.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: So they've been challenging me to check in and check
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: out in between innings when there's two outs, it's like
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: back to that animal mindset.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: But those first two outs, when we're sitting in the dugout.
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: That's when Joe has this opportunity to come in and
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: get whatever out.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Maybe we'll joke a.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: Little bit, but when once there's two outs, it's like,
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: get away from me. It's like just lock them back in. So,
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: I mean, dude, we're we're all we're all really close here.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: I think we're really typed that team, and we're all
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: the same guy every day. Even if guys are struggling,
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: we all come in and we're having a blasts.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: That's the number one thing.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: Take us through the conversations, but then also the physical
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: ramp up to go from a reliever at the beginning
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: of the year. The role you had last year was
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: way different than what you're doing right now. So is
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: this a conversation in spring where they go, hey, we
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: could possibly do this since we bought brought Pete Fairbanks in,
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: but then they just had to transition you because to
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: build up to be a starter in the regular season
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: in the big leagues is no joke.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Take us through that, yeah, you know, I mean, it's
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: a tough game, man, Obviously, we had a few injuries,
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: some of our some of our death down at the
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: lower level. Some of the guys that we thought were
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: gonna be ready went through tj uh and that's that's tough, man.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: I hate to see that. But in spring I was
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: throwing one to two innings, you know. I think there
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: was one outing where they wanted me to go three.
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: And that was a grind too. Just off season, I
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: wasn't necessarily preparing for that. It's preparing to be just
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: like a short burst reliever. During the season, though, I
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: was getting tossed into that, like the I don't want
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: to call it the mop up role, but it was kind.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Of like a mop up role.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: You come in games, kind of in a gym and
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: you're in a buying and you gave up, like you're
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: losing by five or winning by five, something like that.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: You don't want to waste your your leverage arms. I
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: was really good at just being efficient and going through
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: adage quickly, keeping the pitch count low. And then once
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: they just kept getting injuries, they just pulled me in
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: the office one day and said, hey, like, you cool,
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: if we just let you start.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: You've been going three Ning's pretty much every time anyway.
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: So then at that point it's just it's a matter
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: of just going out doing the exact same thing, some
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: minor tweaks and to the starting plan.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: But I've been pretty much treating my day to day
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: like a reliever.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: Like obviously, like the lifting schedules different, the conditioning schedules
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: a little different, but mindset wise, preparation wise, I've been
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: treating it pretty much the same as I would when
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: I was a reliever, And all I'm doing is going
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: on a few extra innings.
• 11:47

• 13:08
  Speaker 5: The conversations in the clubhouse were very few and far
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: between about trade deadline. Because if you're like, bro, we

  Speaker 4: And to be honest, I haven't I haven't heard any
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: chatter about trades. And maybe I'm just like maybe I'm
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: just like not paying attention to anything. But I wouldn't
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: even have been able to tell you what our record was,
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: you know, Like, I know we've been playing well, dude,
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: we get in that clubhouse and it's just like we're
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: just looking to have fun.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: We've been We've been switching the vibes up a lot.
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: On my start day, I know that we've been going
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: with a lot of like some soul music I like,
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: I like Rick James. I've been putting a lot of
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: ham on. We've been kind of going with a little
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: funky fish vibe. Guys have just been enjoying that. We
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: like to dance around, joke around. We got got a
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: few games in the clubhouse. Everybody's just competing. Nobody's really
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: talking about trade deadlines or where anyone's going. Like, see
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: the injuries suck, but like nobody really talks about that.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: We just keep it keep it light, keep it loose.
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: I don't know if the team would appreciate me saying it,
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: But like I have a we do have like a
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: little extracurricular in the clubhouse next to my locker where
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: we all just like gather around after games. Uh you know,
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: I have a little have a little drain ski and
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: we're just on really well, like there's no there's no
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: talk about trades, there's no talk about records.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: We just go out there and we're just having a blast.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: That's really just That's why I said I think I
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: said it the other day, like it feels like high
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: school or college, like you don't even pay attention to
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: what's going on.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: You're just having fun with your boys.
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: Is it celebrating? I mean you celebrate after win. Liked
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: you boys, because I've been on teams where we take
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: tequila shots after a win. We do different types of
• 15:06
  Speaker 5: What is the routine after Marlin's win? Who leads it?
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: What are the chants? And is there a certain music
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: that's played?
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I mean we there is definitely a routine.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: We all get in there, we all gather around mister Fairbanks.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: He grabs the.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: The game log and he's going over all the all
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: the positives from the game. Who's gotten hits, who pitched well,
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: like obviously we all pay attention, we know what happened
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: in the game.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Just honor all those guys.
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: And then we have this like wwe like Marlin's belt
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: hand that out to the player of the game, usually
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: like we're just screaming at him, like telling him to
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: say it, to do a speech, and when he's about
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: to start doing his speech, we just keep screaming at him,
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: keep like tossing stuff at him, and then they'll do
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: his speech, usually something short and sweet like hey, let's
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: go get another win tomorrow.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: Bump the music up.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: I don't know what the music vibe is, kind of
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: just like stuff that we like, and then eventually we
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: get back into that funk vibe. But then over by
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: my locker, we do have we do have the curtains,
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: we pull them open. I got a bunch of polaroids
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: in there with guys. After the wins, we take pictures
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: with them, and we definitely do sweep shots and most
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: of the pictures will all gather around there, you know,
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: position players, they got stuff to do the next day.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: Pictures is a little bit of a different animal, but.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Usual together around have a drink together, just decompressed talk
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: about the game, whatever it is, and you know, it's
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: just like I said, just keeping it tight knit, keeping
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: it close, and just bonding, man like, just hanging.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Around each other. Like those are the teams that are
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: going to be successful. I love that.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: That's awesome, And I hope people know what goes on
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: behind the scenes to help build the camaraderie because that's
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: important and you can see it with the way the
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: team's playing. So I have a question in terms of
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: how to appeal to the fan base. I lived in Miami,
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: and there's just so much competition down there. There's so
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: many people that aren't born there right that go down there.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: They're fans of other teams, the whole deal. So my
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: question is, how do you organically produce more people like
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: you who are so good on interviews like this, Like,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: are there any players on the team that you're like, hey,
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: you can give give a little more crack some of
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: these jokes to the media to help fans, casual fans
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: catch a viral moment, because you know how it is.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: It's like in Miami, you could basically be the best
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: team in the league, but then still if there's not
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: some viral moment or some star name who's a Hall
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: of Famer. It's just hard to break through the noise.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: That's just what it is in that city.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean there was so much other stuff going on.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: Like I know, we have a fan base. I just
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: I would love to see him come out to the game.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: I know Marlin's and network they DM me the other
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: day they got like forty thousand followers. Asked me to
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: just do a little video, try to encourage people to
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: come out, do a little takeover.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Man.
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: I mean, we just got to keep lying. Well, just
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: hand handle what we can control. Control, you know the
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: cliche answer. But I do encourage guys constantly, Like obviously
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: I've talked to the pictures. Gosh, I haven't even talked
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: to some hitters here and there, like early in the year.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Just about like presence on the field.
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: The two guys that stand out to me the most,
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Like obviously Pete knows what he's doing, He's.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: Got he's got mound presence.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: Two guys that stand out to me the most are
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: Michael Peterson and Kate Gibson. Like these guys they come
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: out there with some fire now man, Like early in
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: the year, even last year, a little bit like you.
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: You have that little rookie like that sense that I'm
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: a rookie. I don't want to show anyone up, you know.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: And gosh, I dealt with that too, and get to
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: the point where nobody really cares. Like the other team,
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: they don't. They don't care. They might remember it, they
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: might want to get some revenge on you, but it's
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: the same that, like we have the same thing, you know.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: So I've been encouraging them, like, hey, man, go out there,
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: show some fire.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: People want to see that. So I got I got
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: kid Gibson.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: And uh, gosh, you can't say his name, Mike Peterson,
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: and I got a nickname for him. It's like his
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: alter ego. But like I can't say it's it's I'll
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: tell you this. It starts with an MF and then
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: it goes Mike. But uh, they've been throwing the jacket
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: on after outings, you know, like after they walk off
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: the mountain, like they get out of a gym, they're
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: tossing the jacket on. I'm like, oh, that's sick, man.
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: Like they're they're just like jawing at themselves. They're john
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: at the other guys. They come in. You can feel
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: the energy when they're coming out of the bullpen and
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: they come into the dugout, like people need to see that.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: That like gives me I got chills right now just
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: thinking about it.
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: And we got a lot of guys like that, man,
• 19:34
  Speaker 4: like even the hitters, Like we do this stuff in
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: the dogout now where Brian Navaretto.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: He's some of the best energy I've been around in
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: this game.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: We got our h one of our shrink coaches, Daniel Vega,
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: Like they start to do this like number they're like
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: five six, seven eight, and we do this like well,
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: we're all snapping and clapping and dancing around and they
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: got the fight and fish h like bottled girls service
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: thing and we're just like dancing and chanting around like
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: people probably hear us from the other dog out and
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: like what in the world is going on over there?
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: And like that's the fun that that we have. That's
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: like the viral moments that I wish people could come
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: out to the stadium and see. Like I I think
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: there's like a few like the season ticket holders that
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: are behind they know, but but like that's the stuff
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: that that gives me chills just seeing these guys, like
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: seeing them blossom and get away from from like that
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: scared kid that I mentioned to Todd earlier, Like that,
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: I felt like I was nervous to do.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Something wrong, like, oh, I don't want to get in trouble.
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: I don't want to be viral, Like I wish guys
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: would say, like, dude, don't be viral. Yeah, we're playing baseball,
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: But I do think that there is a sense like
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: we're still entertaining at the same time, you know, like
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: people want to see that. That's how you're gonna get fans,
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: and the more fans you get, the more the more
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: incentive there is. Just don't play hard, you know, like
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: it feels good having that having that roar behind you.
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: Cap I've been looking for the best deals for the
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: All Star Game tickets and Philly, where are you going
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: to get some tickets from?
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: I'm going straight out to Rife Field. If Harper and
• 21:05
  Speaker 8: Schwarber both joined the home run derby, I want to
• 21:07
  Speaker 8: be catching the hometown guys hitting them. So I'm going
• 21:09
  Speaker 8: out to the Rife Field kind of where I think
• 21:11
  Speaker 8: I could get the best chance of catching one of
• 21:12
  Speaker 8: those home runs.
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: Maybe in the second deck. You can go on the
• 21:15

• 21:54
  Speaker 6: Broh, you fire me up. I want to go put
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: an uniform on right now and go play.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: Hey, come on down, you know I would.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: My last question to you for me.
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: Red Sox still have not taken off from last night's
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: game and they're still sitting in Chicago when they have
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: a game at seven to ten in New York. If
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: you're a starting pitcher today, if you're not, still haven't
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: taken off you're not supposed to land until after four
• 22:18
  Speaker 6: thirty five o'clock. Are you losing it a little bit?
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: Are you like, ah, whatever, let's just let's let it
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: roll whatever.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: I think at that point, like you probably go through
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: the four stages, you know, like the despair, like the
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: yam me like all this stuff. You probably go through
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: the four stages and then you get to acceptance. I
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: know it's if it's me, i'd probably just be like
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: to whatever. Man, Like I think when we were in
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: Saint Louis, two outings to go for me, like I
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: was talking about, I was just going in survival mode,
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: like my body felt terrible, it was super hot day game.
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: It's probably where I would be at that point. I'd
• 22:51
  Speaker 4: be I'll get me wrong, I'd be pissed. But again's
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: control what you can control. That is insane. I didn't
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: know that, but uh yeah, just go out there, do
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: your job the best you can.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: Everybody's everybody on that flight's gotta gotta play the same way,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: Anyway we joke about how our bodies feel constantly here too,
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: Like like Max Meyer, this guy, I think he's got
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: He's probably throwing more innings this year. Than he has
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: his entire career combined, so like obviously his body's gonna
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: be feeling it.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: And we're always.
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: Joking like, oh, dude, I'm shocked, like I don't know
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: if I can pitch today.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: And then we go out and you know, he'll go
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: out and throw seven. You know, I think at that
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: point you just go into survival mode and go compete. Man,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: That's all. That's what it's all about.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: Oh, who's the biggest freak on the team. Who's the
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: guy that you're like, whoa if people knew about this guy,
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: like this guy talking about like talent wise on.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: The field, he's freak on this team.
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: Dude, I gotta put I gotta put Mike Peterson up there, man,
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: Like he he locks in that mental side.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: Dude.
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: He's seven. He's got Nigerian blood in him. His middle
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: name is like Ketichuku. He's this six foot seven guy.
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: We call him the pie thrower too, because he's got
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: this long arm action like it you probably like in
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: the box, you can't see he's throwing twenty one vertical
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: movement fastball?
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Is it ninety seven to one hundred?
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: And like I said, like he when he comes in
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: like we had a conversation earlier in the year in
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: La where like I could sense it was like a
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: back to back day for him, and I could sense
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: that he was like kind of stirring a little bit mentally,
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: and uh, you know, it wasn't the ideal out and
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: for him, and I just pulled him to the side
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: in the tunnel and I had this I had this
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: long just like rant to him where I was saying, like, dude,
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: those guys do not care about you. They will hit
• 24:46
  Speaker 4: a line drive off your forehead. They'll probably take a
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: step back for a second, like, oh man, I hit
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: that guy, But then they'll keep rounding the basis, you know,
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: because that's their job.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: And I think he took that to heart.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: And now I see him come out of that pen man,
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: and you can see that he's seeing red. I can
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: see steam coming out of his ears. And man, if
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: I was a hitter, I would not want to be
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: in the box against him. I think that's like the
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: physical specimen. He has the stuff, and I think the
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: mindset is right there, and I just want him to
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: keep it there.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: Epic, epic love the combo, dude. We love catching up
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: with you. Yeah, And hopefully Marlins fans you hear about
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: all of this, so love the personality.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Chat Tyler.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: Great to catch up with you, man. Enjoy the break too,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: and we'll catch it in the second half.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Yes, sir, I come down. We got a jersey for
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: you bro.
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: Alright kid, I'm ready, ma
