That definitely wasn’t your typical rookie interview. To be fair though…. “Control what I could control” is about the most gentle way of saying “catch the damn ball” that you’ll ever hear lol.What an interview. Minus not so subtlety throwing your teammates under the bus, this was perfect. Extremely confident and understands what he’s doing.
The second (and third) time he said it was fine. The first time was over the top and right off the bat out of his mouth. Not a good lookThat definitely wasn’t your typical rookie interview.

Sounds like something Kranitz put in his head before the start honestly. The good thing about "control what I could control" is that he can just say he was referring to the soft contact in the 1st inning.The second (and third) time he said it was fine.

I can see DOBoner now. “Hey marcell, ol rook Spence said you can’t catch dick. Care to comment?”
“Hey Ollie, Strider said you blew his first start. What do you think about that?”
Lol no way. The lean in, pause for dramatic effect and head nod is 110% “you see those MFs can’t catch?!”Sounds like something Kranitz put in his head before the start honestly.

Bill needs to be primary catch over TDA tbhOzuna is a major problem. His arm is laughably bad but his OF jump is bottom 10% and it’s not like he has speed up make up for it. We also need Bill’s bat at DH.
Quick perusal of baseball savant this morning has Austin Riley in the first percentile of outs above average. Tough scene.
