00:00when this thing first came out on sunday uh it was my first reaction when i saw the lineup i
00:05went oh this is a big league lineup this is like an opening day kind of lineup and i i
00:10mean i'll
00:10run through it for you just quickly so you have an idea well i have it okay just real quick
00:15yeah
00:15yeah go so here was the lineup uh roman anthony designated here leading off so you're gonna dh
00:22uh he is if the other outfielders are who they got on the lineup yep stories at short batting
00:28second duran in left batting third contraris at first in the uh that would make it the cleanup
00:36spot will you are braio and right batting fifth the newly uh traded for caleb durbin at third
00:43six sedan rafael is seventh and center narvaez catching eighth and then kind of falefa at
00:50second base batting ninth so yeah i think i think that's pretty accurate i mean i think that's how
00:56they project and look i'll just because you you mentioned it anthony's going to play sometime in
01:01the outfield but all things being equal they like duran better in the outfield i think because he
01:06covers more ground so as a left fielder you know there have been mixed numbers on duran i happen to
01:11think he's better at left and center but whatever that's going to be it you'll see some rotation among
01:16the outfielders as dh uh the you know two things are struck me one is that duran's going to hit
01:23third
01:24and anthony's going to lead off and not that that's a big deal they were leading off anthony last year
01:28but i'm eager to see whether duran is good enough to be a number three hitter i know lineups aren't
01:33constructed the same way they used to be not even close yeah i mean you know look it's you know
01:39he's not
01:39that kind of guy if he plays like he did two years ago maybe but i don't think he's that
01:44kind of hitter
01:44the real thing is at the bottom of the lineup this is really where the only intrigue is all of
01:51this
01:51spring as far as their positional roster is concerned and that is that who's going to play
01:55second base and what does this mean for marcelo meyer and those are really part of the same question
02:01so they have kind of full effort playing second base over meyer now meyer was not ready to play in
02:07games when they posted the lineup this weekend in other words he's not going to start playing in his
02:12first games until the end of this week because he's recovering from surgery but meyer is really
02:17the the biggest story down there if you ask me he hasn't uh cora keeps dumping on him every chance
02:24he gets it feels like he's you know criticizing him for anything and everything get his hands on and
02:30he does not sound like a favorite of alex chorus
02:32you
