Legendary play/movie writer and fellow Puerto Rican Lin Manuel Miranda is working on a movie about the Molina brothers

Also of note that I didn't know, he is the cousin of Twins infielder Jose Miranda

Will it be a musical like Hamilton? Imagine the actor portraying Yadier, with neck tats, rapping about his beefs around the league. That would be epic.

I heard filming was halted as one of the actors has to go manage a basketball team.


Too soon?

Changing my mind about this. I’ll be okay with singing if there’s a scene that recreates the time Yadi ripped off all his catchers gear in protest, only he’s belting out a Jennifer Hudson-style show stopper.

Why would anyone outside of STL, pay money to see a movie about the Molina brothers?

I think Bengie was very popular in SF for a time. Doubt there’s any Jose fan clubs out there though to your point.

Plus, LMM is a genius. Nobody could’ve predicted he could’ve made a rap musical about Alexander Hamilton work. But he did. You never know. This could be more specific franchise agnostic and be the next The Blind Side focusing on their journey to the MLB.

Maybe they will embellish 3 characters as Mo, Curly, and Larry
Add humor to the brothers.
Do a bit like Abbor & Costello. Only call it ‘who’s at Catch ?’
