00:00I'd say it's something less than ideal that both of them got rushed to the major leagues for their debut.
00:06Both of them in case of injury.
00:08I'm sure that happens, you know, with a lot of prospects.
00:10But these are guys who should have been here weeks and weeks ago.
00:13You could have put them in a more advantageous spot to make their debut.
00:17To me, despite the massive error last night, he looked much more comfortable than Meyer.
00:22Meyer looked real rushed when he made his debut and had all those strikeouts.
00:26Anthony at the plate looked pretty, I mean, he ripped one right back at Shane Boz last night.
00:31So at the plate, he looked pretty good.
00:33I mean, that should have been a hit.
00:34I mean, that was it.
00:34That was smoked right back up the middle.
00:37I don't normally care about...
00:38Exit Velo?
00:39Well, I don't want to play Mark and Medford's side of the street.
00:41But I don't normally care about exit.
00:43I like to call it Velo.
00:44Not Velo.
00:45Velo?
00:46But 111?
00:47Yeah, that was nice.
00:49He's got a good bruise today, I bet.
00:50I bet he does.
00:51He's lucky to be alive.
00:52He's lucky to still be with us.
00:53You can make the case they screwed up the debuts of every guy.
00:56Because Christian Campbell probably wasn't actually ready for the majors.
01:01Good point.
01:02But they didn't have a second baseman.
01:03They're like, well, we got a contract.
01:04And we got a contract.
01:05Yeah, he's already here.
01:06We're already paying him.
01:06Get him here.
01:07He was the least ready of the three.
01:09And they're like, opening day start, my guy.
01:11And then he's like, actually, you know, he played well the first month.
01:14And then he has since cooled off.
01:16But then Meyer and Anthony, you're like, these guys are ready to go.
01:19So I think Bradford said Meyer was the best player on the team in camp.
01:23Like, the best player in camp.
01:24He was crushing.
01:25When they played, where did they play those games?
01:27Mexico?
01:28Yeah, they played the last two in Mexico.
01:28He was like red hot at the end of spring training, carried it over into those games in Mexico.
01:32And they're like, yeah, no, have fun.
01:33I'm ready.
01:34Right.
01:34And he told us he was ready.
01:35He's like, oh, yeah, I should have made the team.
01:37And he was right.
01:38Yeah.
01:38And then they were like, oh, let's get him in here.
01:40Like, you know, stick him at third base.
01:43Then with Roman Anthony, you call him in.
01:44They're driving down.
01:45It's a little bit of like a, you know, a quick turnaround for him.
01:49But they're here.
01:51So I guess I'll take that.
01:52Right.
01:52It's June 10th.
01:54And all three guys are up and they're all in the lineup.
01:56Now, I didn't think it should have to take a Bregman injury, a Willier-Abreu injury and
02:00like whatever else, like a couple of months in.
02:03But I'll look at it positively and say, all right, you know, most nights now going forward,
02:07fingers crossed, all three of those guys are in the big league lineup.
02:10So here is a reminder for fans who love the farm system.
02:14And I was excited to watch Anthony last night, just like I was with Meyer and Campbell.
