On this episode of The Sports Info Solutions Baseball Podcast, Mark Simon is joined by a pair of minor league defensive standouts, Noah Miller from the Twins organization (0:58) and Nasim Nuñez (16:19) from the Marlins organization.
We enjoyed talking about how they do what they do on D. Noah Miller leads all shortstops in the minor league version of Defensive Runs Saved this season with Nuñez consistently ranking around the top 5.
They talk about their specific defensive approaches, how they've come to be students of the game, and walked us through some of the best plays they've made.
SIS VP of Baseball Bobby Scales joined us to dissect what both players talked about (30:10).
