First Pitch 3:05 Podcast

Welcome to the First Pitch: 305 Podcast! Glad you all can join and listen to all the baseball talk with Alex Aguirre, Miami Marlins contributor for Lemon City Live. 

The first-ever episode of First Pitch: 305 had Alex embark on his podcast journey with Co-Host of the Evening Juice with Lemon City Live, Edwin Garcia, and Emmy Award-winning editor, Danis Sosa. Two die-hard Miami Marlins fans that just flat love the game! 

The guys talked about the current state of the Marlins with a 13-16 record filled with tough one-run losses. They talked about Miami's busy offseason and the free agents they signed underperforming so far this season. 

Was the Marlins' offseason spending spree enough to compete in the NL East? Alex, Edwin and Danis break down the division and determine if the Marlins will be buyers or sellers if they are hanging around in the race by the trade deadline. Maybe a trade to help a depleted bullpen could help? 

Episode one is rounded off with the guys talking about what's next for the Fish in their schedule and the face of the franchise: Jazz Chisholm Jr. 

Can you remember a free agent signing the Marlins had that actually panned out well?

The guys also talk about Miami's bullpen concerns in the 9th inning and when the lineup is going to come altogether from top to bottom. Isaac gives his letter grade for the Marlins offseason and how he thinks their acquisitions are performing so far. 

The episode is rounded off with the guys breaking down the NL East. Are the New York Mets legitimate contenders?

In this week's episode of First Pitch 3:05, Alex welcomes Andres Bolivar to the show. Andres is a sports writer for "Con Las Bases Llenas" and his beat is to cover the Tampa Bay Rays and the Miami Marlins. 

This week's show starts with the guys talking about Sandy Alcantara's gutsy complete game performance over the Cardinals. They break down his season so far and they make the case as to why Sandy is currently the best pitcher in baseball and why he deserves to start for the National League at the All-Star Game. 

Later in the show, Andres and Alex talk about the Marlins' news that happened off the field with Gary Denbo being dismissed by the franchise. Denbo was Miami's VP of player development and scouting and was selected by Derek Jeter to come over from the Yankees in 2017. The guys talk about his tenure, the moves he made with the club, and the overall impact he had on Miami's farm system. 

The show is rounded off with what's up ahead for the Miami Marlins. The injury bug is still plaguing Miami but some key players are returning soon. There's a month left until the trade deadline and Alex and Andres talk about why this is the most important month of the 2022 season before determining if Miami is going to be buyers or sellers at the deadline.

Welcome to the First Pitch 3:05 Podcast! Glad you all can join and listen to all the baseball talk with Alex Aguirre, Miami Marlins contributor for Lemon City Live.

In this week's episode, Alex runs it back with the same crew he had for episode six. Joining Alex is Andres Bolivar, beat writer for Con Las Bases Llenas, and Marlins beat writer for Fish Stripes and co-host for Fish Stripes Unfiltered, Kevin Barral.

The three of them were in attendance for Kim Ng's press conference over the weekend in regards to the team's recent performance and the upcoming trade deadline. The guys breakdown the questions asked to Kim and if her responses provided any clarity and direction for the franchise. 

Over the weekend, Charles Leblanc made his MLB debut, and recently the Marlins have been calling up prospects from Triple-A like JJ Bleday and Lewin Diaz. The Marlins lineup has gone through a small youth movement over the last week and the guys talk about the impact the newcomers can have for the rest of the season. They also talk about if these players are in the future plans for the Marlins or if they would be used in a trade package. 

With the trade deadline coming up on Tuesday, August 2nd, the guys close out the show talking about the different directions the Marlins can go. With their recent performance and their position in the standings, maybe the front office should be looking at trades that can help them for the 2023 season.
