Canadian, Marlins' Liam Hicks' Hot Start + Vintage Mike Trout

Miami Marlins catcher and first baseman, as well as Toronto native Liam Hicks (0:43) joins Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker to chat about his hot start of the 2026 season, his hitting approach through the offseason and Spring Training, the team's performance so far, controlling your slumps, the use of ABS, calling pitches from the dugout, and playing alongside fellow Canadians on the Marlins. Then, Jeff and Kevin discuss who should be given the green light to use the ABS challenge and whether a kangaroo court should be implemented. Afterwards, Mark Gubicza (30:07), former MLB pitcher and current Los Angeles Angels TV analyst, stops by to weigh in on Mike Trout reinventing his game, a small change to his at-bat timing, Jo Adell's confidence, and the scouting report on José Soriano.
