Danny, Ethan and Ian offer quick thoughts on The Athletic’s unflattering report about Marlins vice president of player development and scouting Gary Denbo. Then, in their latest roundup of minor league developments, the guys review Sixto Sánchez‘s debut in the Marlins organization and forecast where his 2019 campaign goes from here (3:26), weigh in on why Lewis Brinson was demoted to Triple-A New Orleans (9:46), wonder when red-hot Elieser Hernandez and Harold Ramírez earn call-ups to Miami (20:02), and wrap up with their usual special segments (33:04).
