00:00fish lose last night uh they lose 5-2 to the astros nine use me nine straight losses
00:07for miami uh you got my buttons up vlad i'm gonna play uh this is the uh the swing moment
00:13yesterday yordan alvarez uh going deep against sandy one one pena on the go alvarez smacks the
00:20ball out to left center field that is back that is gone sounds like mike biamani he is steph curry
00:32for
00:33three yordan alvarez on a 1-1 pitch peels a go-ahead two-run home run out to left center
00:42field
00:42over the high wall and left center atop the marlin bullpen and his major league leading
00:4934th home run this year gives houston a 4-2 lead in the bottom of the eighth the words of
00:55craig mish
00:58yikes he always tweets that out when things are going bad yeah uh here's clayton mccullough after
01:04the game this is uh what the manager had to say on where things are with his fish
01:10good i know that it wasn't the end sandy wanted but it felt like he gave you everything he had
01:14tonight yeah i feel i mean he was he was fantastic and i mean i thought he really was in
01:19control most
01:20of the night he had a very efficient you know pitch count and you know really moved things along well
01:26you know after the first couple of innings and um you know yeah so um hate how things we know
01:32went
01:32down there but you know i thought he threw the ball fantastic there was no answer for alvarez either
01:37the last couple of days yeah good hitter i mean he is and he kind of you know again he
01:40covers a lot of
01:41different you know pitches he covers you know both sides of the plate um you know and he's having a
01:46you know an all-star worthy season you know mvp type season and he did he uh put some really
01:51good
01:51swings on balls and you know he got us were there any encouraging signs offensively though tonight
01:56i thought we had a lot of really good at bats and i thought there were you know we created
01:59some
01:59opportunities that we hit some balls hard and um you know so that's really i think we just kind of
02:04keep plugging along with that you know you just i think the back quality as a whole was good
02:08tonight again i thought we squared some balls up you know griff drove a ball you know well to the
02:12big part of the field you know bert continues to swing the bat well so uh yeah there were i
02:17mean
02:17i think for me tonight offensively like you know we felt like this was one of those games you're just
02:21kind of in it you know the whole way and um you know we couldn't get one to you know
02:25squeak through
02:25there in the middle to to take over but um how it goes what what did you like about sandy
02:31tonight
02:32again how he just continues to me he's got a ton of ground balls now he's uh you know ability
02:37to like
02:37use all of his stuff use both sides of the plate um most part you know he's he's has count
02:41leverage
02:42it feels like you know most every at bat so he's just on the attack and he's using his entire
02:46arsenal
02:47and stuff's been great so i mean kind of what he's been doing now for a month plus which is
02:52going to
02:52deepen the games and giving us every chance to win just all right there you go that was uh
02:57clayton mcculley yesterday after the loss uh marlins dropped to 52 and 51 they're eight back now in the
03:05nl east uh in the wild card they are now a game and a half out of the final wild
03:11card spot so yeah
03:12just a complete and they have uh two teams on top of them uh rough can you tell ethan uh
03:21smith and
03:21spolnik to go to hell what do you say bro cover up your chesticles be a damn professional i can't
03:28moron
03:31i thought you were just trying to be sexy oh yeah come get somebody
03:39i'm not just a little wrapped up oh no not feeling that right now he was a yeller
03:48so uh yeah the marlins uh got san diego coming in this week they're 50 and 52
03:54uh they're kind of mulling around trading some of their top guys oh they gotta feel worse because
04:01they spent a boatload of money they do spend a lot of money but i mean you know all money
04:07ain't good
04:08money i don't know who feels worse than a team that's lost nine in a row that's not in a
04:12row that's
04:12true i don't care what level i don't care what level uh of expectations you have or what level of
04:22team you are at that level um nine in a row sucks it's the same thing in football you lose
04:30three four
04:31or five games in a row i mean it it's terrible i don't care what people think like when you
04:39get
04:39into that arena you think you can win i don't care how bad your team is and i don't know
04:45why people
04:45just think that athletes go in there and say oh we're not very good we're gonna get our asses kicked
04:51it really doesn't work that way yeah i guess the question is now going to be like do the marlins
04:56go
04:56into this thing because it's it's so fragile like we were talking about the idea that they were going
05:00to add to this team and maybe add to the roster now do they go you know and go the
05:06opposite direction
05:06the opposite way you know it's going to be one of those things where they they do take offers for
05:10sandy because they the owner's been very out front we're not trading sandy alcantara but this is the
05:15i always say that i think part of the problem is is that i think before you make a major
05:22decision like
05:23that right like take a step back right don't like as an organization you can't be on the same level
05:37with fans you got to see big picture you got to see a little further down the line instead of
05:42oh let's
05:43just tank because two weeks ago we were talking about adding guys to get them over the hump yeah
05:53but so how in two weeks two weeks later nine straight losses dude like that's how it goes yeah like
05:58you
05:58what that's like that's a disastrous losing streak it is i'm not losing it's not losing three straight
06:04series and you're three and six you lost every game no i i again i understand all of that
06:13but you're gonna choose nine games out of 162 to say we ain't that let's go the race is the
06:21race but
06:22the race is the race like it would be like saying then okay one month turned around the season is
06:26that
06:26us you know what's more representative of the team it's not right you know like it's it's one of these
06:31things where you are where you are like you're on the doorstep and then you just completely wet the bed
06:36in that situation so yeah i mean i'm sure they're not gonna trade them next week but like let's say
06:43the marlins don't first of all i mean you have to win this series coming up here against san diego
06:48have to because you got philly you got philly coming in on monday okay and we already i mean they've
06:55pile-drived you like the undertaker dude like it's been rough what philly's done to the marlins this year
07:00so you're talking about a situation where you're going to get absolutely buried uh potentially if
07:06you don't take two out of three coming up here and yeah this is as dire a situation as it
07:10is like i
07:11know people want to say hey it's a big season it's a long season yeah the season can get short
07:15pretty
07:15quick it can get short pretty quick because this is a it's a very competitive national league um the
07:21only thing that's kind of a shining light and mish pointed this out yesterday they have kind of sucked
07:26on the road this year and they've been really good at home so hopefully getting back in the friendly
07:31confines of lone depot will get them turned around a little bit but so can i ask you this this
07:37is this
07:37is this is what i'm curious about so say they go and sweep you know sweep uh san diego and
07:46then
07:47they win two out of three against uh philly are you going to change after six games am i going
07:56to
07:56change am i saying is your mindset i mean am i going to be more positive after going five and
08:00one and yes i probably but like right but you're you're you're talking about a big ask of like hey
08:06all of a sudden are you going to go from the worst team in baseball to the best i understand
08:09that but
08:10when they went on this run in june nobody saw it coming uh i yeah but that was and that's
08:16it but
08:16but that's what i'm saying about about baseball in this team like how many losses does it have to be
08:22for you to claim it a disaster does it have to be 12 no i would say four straight sweeps
08:30what's the
08:30answer i would say when they're no longer in touch of the wild card then i would say it's over
08:38yeah and i'm not even saying it's over but what i'm telling you is you can't like people can't sit
08:45here and be like that is a disaster like you can't be in striking distance of a division and then
08:51all
08:52of a sudden three series later you're on the outskirts of your three teams back now the final
08:57wild card spot right that's that's that's a heinous drop it doesn't mean that you're it doesn't mean
09:03that you're out of it and the season's over but if you don't like you're going i mean you're very
09:08greedy you're going five and one if i honestly i would take three and three right now at this point
09:12over the next two series i'm just saying the way this season has gone like when they went on that
09:19run in june right like everything just like it's in them it's in them to turn it around whether it
09:29happened or not uh maybe that was it you know maybe that was their one you know run that baseball
09:38teams
09:38have regardless of how good or bad you are during the course of a year it was epic okay but
09:45what
09:45i'm saying is is that to go from that to a two or three bad weeks terrible weeks terrible i'm
09:54not
09:55they were terrible right to just be totally you know like well what are they going to start doing
10:03what are they going to who are they going to get rid of who's it i'm like are we really
10:07really ready
10:09to make moves like that after three weeks three series no but i'm telling but that's why i'm
10:16telling you like the next two series yeah it's pretty urgent especially with who you're taking on
10:22like because i don't know what you're like again i'm going back to what's your magic because so like
10:26let's say they lose these next two series i'm not even saying like let's say they snap the
10:29loose streak and they go two and four yeah man like that's a that's a pretty that's a pretty rough
10:34ball once you get and and here's where i start to to wonder if moves are going to be made
10:43once you get out of reach of the wild card right and the only thing that's going to get you
10:51back in
10:52it is another june which is not going to happen that's why it was a record right um then i
10:59would
11:00consider it i would consider okay what can we do here but like i know nine games is a lot
11:11i'm not
11:11even disputing that no they look and i've been as frustrated as everybody but as an organization
11:20you can't be the one to react to the ebbs and flows of your team during the course of a
11:27season
11:27like a fan would and so i wonder if they're i doubt if they're even considering any of that stuff
11:33at this point yeah i probably think right now they're not but i'm saying that they're knocking
11:40on the door of it like this is that's how big these next two series are and then they go
11:44on the road
11:44for mets and and braves right so yeah it gets it gets pretty pretty uh tough your next 10 days
11:53is
11:53going to determine your season is what i'm saying they're either going to pull themselves out of this
11:57thing or they're or this is going to get really dicey especially with two of the opponents that
12:04have absolutely head kicked them all season right right and don't don't you lose a series to the
12:09that's i mean i swear to god i hate that team i mean so does half of their players but
12:18they're not the ones who are getting checks huh not the ones whose checks are clearing
12:25we'll take a break just sign somebody to 700 million yeah soto soto and he's miserable
12:32he doesn't look miserable in that celsius commercial they play all the time
12:38he's on the beach hitting home runs he goes ah playa vibe
12:43did we finally find him yeah that's where he was did we finally find him on the bus
