WEBVTT - Dodger Talk (5-3-26) 

0:00:00.600 --> 0:00:02.920
<v Speaker 1>The quest for the three peat has begun.

0:00:03.120 --> 0:00:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Only four teams in Major League Baseball history have won

0:00:07.040 --> 0:00:08.639
<v Speaker 2>three consecutive titles.

0:00:09.000 --> 0:00:12.640
<v Speaker 3>The Dodgers are the favorites to become the fifth fifth.

<v Speaker 2>Dodgers finally win a baseball game. Took him long enough.

0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:38.239
<v Speaker 2>They snapped their four game losing streak finally with a

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 2>four oh one win over the Saint Louis Cardinals today

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:44.640
<v Speaker 2>in Saint Louis. Hi, everybody, and welcome to Dodger Talk.

0:00:44.960 --> 0:00:47.240
<v Speaker 2>Tim Kates with you here for the next thirty minutes

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:49.800
<v Speaker 2>or so. Let's jump on board and talk to Dodgers baseball.

0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:52.519
<v Speaker 2>Eight sixty six nine eighty seven to two five seventy

0:00:52.600 --> 0:00:54.480
<v Speaker 2>is the number again. Eight sixty six nine eighty seven

0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 2>two five seventy. You can always tweet at me at

0:00:56.920 --> 0:01:00.520
<v Speaker 2>Tim Kates, tim c a t s again at Tim

0:01:00.600 --> 0:01:02.760
<v Speaker 2>Kates on a Twitter an X if you want to

0:01:02.800 --> 0:01:06.080
<v Speaker 2>give me a follow as the Dodgers in their losing streak.

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:08.680
<v Speaker 2>With a four to one win, they get some offensive

0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:10.720
<v Speaker 2>hits when they needed him in the second inning from

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Andy Pajes and I Sung Kim, and then Freddie Freeman

0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:15.800
<v Speaker 2>delivering with a two out single in the fifth. Alex

0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Call came off the bench in the ninth inning with

0:01:18.000 --> 0:01:20.720
<v Speaker 2>an RBI single to give the Dodgers they much needed

0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:23.280
<v Speaker 2>insurance run to extend their lead to four to one.

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 2>But today it was all about Justin Robleski. Six innings,

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:31.720
<v Speaker 2>no run, six hits, zero strikeouts. He threw eighty three

0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:34.399
<v Speaker 2>pitches to get the winnings now five to zero. On

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:39.440
<v Speaker 2>this season, Justin Robleski has made five starts. In those

0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:44.000
<v Speaker 2>five starts, five innings, one run, eight innings, no runs,

0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:48.000
<v Speaker 2>seven innings one earn run, six innings no earn runs.

0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Today six innings, no earn runs. He has given up

0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:57.360
<v Speaker 2>two earned runs in thirty two innings of work. Justin Robleski,

0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:01.880
<v Speaker 2>the starter now is a one one five ERA on

0:02:02.200 --> 0:02:05.480
<v Speaker 2>this season. That's overall as a starter, though it's ero

0:02:05.480 --> 0:02:10.119
<v Speaker 2>point five to six as a starter for Justin Roblesky.

0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 2>What else does Justin Roblesky need to do to stay

0:02:14.440 --> 0:02:19.639
<v Speaker 2>in this rotation. Nothing. As far as I'm concerned, Justin

0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 2>Robleski has earned every right to stay in this rotation

0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:27.639
<v Speaker 2>and stick in the rotation when Blake Snell comes off

0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:29.760
<v Speaker 2>the injured list, and we mentioned in the Clubhouse show

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell trending in the right direction as far as

0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:35.520
<v Speaker 2>coming back from the shoulder soreness. Made his third Minor

0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:39.280
<v Speaker 2>league rehab start today, his first in TRIPAA with Oklahoma City.

0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:42.000
<v Speaker 2>They planned round Rock. He went four innings, fifty five pitches,

0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:43.800
<v Speaker 2>gave up a two run home run, but then retired

0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:46.320
<v Speaker 2>seat of the last eleven batters that he faced. He

0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 2>is trending in the right direction to return. Looks like

0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:51.440
<v Speaker 2>probably one more start. I would guess maybe he get

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:55.360
<v Speaker 2>up to about seventy pitches, five innings, six innings, seventy pitches,

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 2>somewhere around there and then come back off the injured list.

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:01.560
<v Speaker 2>And when he does, the million dollar question has been

0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:04.960
<v Speaker 2>whose spot does he take in the rotation? Is it

0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:08.160
<v Speaker 2>Justin Robleski, is it Roki Sasaki? Is it image Sheian.

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.280
<v Speaker 2>If it was the game of musical chairs, when the

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:15.119
<v Speaker 2>music runs out and everybody dives for a chair, you've

0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:19.920
<v Speaker 2>got three guys vying for one spot. Who's it gonna be,

0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:23.960
<v Speaker 2>who's out? Who's gonna be the last guy that's gotta

0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:29.120
<v Speaker 2>go probably to the bullpen and be a long reliever. Well,

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:33.920
<v Speaker 2>my guess is it's probably gonna be Imachian or Roki Sasaki,

0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 2>because Justin Robleski has done fantastic as a starter, his eer,

0:03:41.640 --> 0:03:44.600
<v Speaker 2>his strikeout to walk certainly, the five to zero record

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 2>speaks for itself. The way he has become the stopper

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:51.480
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers today, stopping the four game losing streak

0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 2>with the six shutout innings and doing it without any

0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:59.800
<v Speaker 2>strikeouts is pretty darn impressive. So if you're to ask

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:03.800
<v Speaker 2>me here on Sunday, May third, with Blake Snell knocking

0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 2>on the door to come back and join this Dodger's rotation,

0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 2>whose spot is Blake Snell gonna take? And who's out

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:15.560
<v Speaker 2>of the rotation, Well, it's down to two guys in

0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:19.480
<v Speaker 2>in my opinion, Roki Sasaki and Image Shean with one

0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:21.560
<v Speaker 2>of whoever is the odd man out is gonna go

0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 2>down to the bullpen and become that long reliever. Now,

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 2>David Vase mentioned yesterday on the pregame show in case

0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:33.320
<v Speaker 2>you missed it, a great solution. Blake Snell returns, Imit Shean,

0:04:33.920 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 2>he said, justin Robleski. But I'm gonna say justin Robleski.

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.840
<v Speaker 2>After today is no doubt earned a spot. Im It

0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Sheen goes down to the bullpen, and you make it

0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:46.600
<v Speaker 2>a piggyback tandem start every time for Roki Sasaki, So

0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 2>Imit Shean is ready to go, and the leash gets

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.599
<v Speaker 2>a little shorter for Roki Sasaki, who yesterday went out

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:56.200
<v Speaker 2>got in trouble the first three innings he was out there,

0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:59.000
<v Speaker 2>had traffic on the base pass, was giving up runs.

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:02.120
<v Speaker 2>But it ended up going out there and pitching and

0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 2>giving the Dodgers some length when it was all said

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:07.039
<v Speaker 2>and done with six innings, giving up the three runs

0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:11.080
<v Speaker 2>on five hits. But if you're moving forward and you

0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:16.040
<v Speaker 2>got to take somebody out of the rotation, my guest

0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:20.279
<v Speaker 2>right now, it's imag Shean, and then Sasaki is the starter.

0:05:20.880 --> 0:05:23.840
<v Speaker 2>But that leash is a little tighter on Sasaki every

0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:26.039
<v Speaker 2>time he makes his start, knowing that imag Shean is

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 2>there to tandem him as the guy out of the

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 2>bullpen to give you long relief if necessary. Eight sixty

0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:33.960
<v Speaker 2>six nine eighty seven two five seventy is the number

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:37.600
<v Speaker 2>eight sixty six nine eighty seven two five seventy. Dodgers

0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:56.599
<v Speaker 2>the phones. Let's check in with Will and long beat

0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:58.559
<v Speaker 2>your first up here on Dodger Talk after the Dodgers

0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:00.480
<v Speaker 2>get a four to one win over the Cardinals. How

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 2>you doing Will?

0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:04.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'm doing great, brother. Hey, you guys are doing

0:06:04.520 --> 0:06:07.839
<v Speaker 5>a great job over there Dodgers Talk and all this stuff.

0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:10.600
<v Speaker 5>But listen, why did he take the picture off so

0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 5>quick like that? He was he had a shutout. He

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 5>doesn't like shutouts or something like that.

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 3>He was a good game.

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:18.200
<v Speaker 2>I think he likes shutouts, and I appreciate the phone call. Well,

0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:20.880
<v Speaker 2>I think he likes what the Justin Robleski was doing

0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:23.040
<v Speaker 2>out there. But at that point in the game, Will

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:26.640
<v Speaker 2>Klein comes in Justin Robleski's had eighty three pitches. He

0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:28.800
<v Speaker 2>again had a sixth inning in which he gave up

0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:31.440
<v Speaker 2>a two out single, gets out of it with the

0:06:31.440 --> 0:06:34.480
<v Speaker 2>flyball out to end the six A lot of traffic

0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:37.200
<v Speaker 2>on the base pass, eighty three pitches, another spin through

0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:40.080
<v Speaker 2>the lineup. No Dave Roberts felt like, Hey, I'd rather

0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:41.920
<v Speaker 2>go to a fresh arm, a new looking arm or

0:06:42.000 --> 0:06:44.320
<v Speaker 2>right hander and Will Klein. And Will Klein came out

0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 2>in the seventh inning. He took only seven pitches. Hard

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:48.480
<v Speaker 2>to argue the success that he had in the seventh

0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:50.719
<v Speaker 2>got into trouble with the walk in the eighth inning.

0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.920
<v Speaker 2>And that's the dreaded walk that no Dodger or any

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:57.039
<v Speaker 2>manager wants to see. When you come out of the bullpen,

0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:00.520
<v Speaker 2>throw strikes. That's your job. And with two outs in

0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:03.760
<v Speaker 2>the eighth inning, a walk to Jordan Walker by Will

0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:07.720
<v Speaker 2>Klein came back to bide him on the single from

0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:10.920
<v Speaker 2>Alex Burlson, scoring Walker all the way from first as

0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:13.680
<v Speaker 2>he was going on the play. Gave the Cardinals one

0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 2>and only run. Blake Tridon came in and got the

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.960
<v Speaker 2>one pitch one out in the eighth inning, but hard

0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:21.000
<v Speaker 2>to argue with the success of Justin Robleski through the

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 2>six innings. I have no problem with Dave Roberts saying

0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:26.400
<v Speaker 2>eighty three pitches traffic on the base pass and fixed

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:28.960
<v Speaker 2>five to the six innings. This Cardinals team, you know,

0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:31.880
<v Speaker 2>has scored runs the first two games of this series.

0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:34.960
<v Speaker 2>You've lost the first two games to the Cardinals. Why

0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:36.600
<v Speaker 2>not go to the Will Cline. I had no problem

0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 2>with him going to the Dodger reliever in that situation.

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Let's go to Maxwell in Austin, Texas, who was at

0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell's rehab start today. All right, Maxwell, what did

0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:48.520
<v Speaker 2>you see?

0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:55.640
<v Speaker 6>Well, I just saw Mike blake Snell was sitting. I

0:07:55.720 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 6>mean Blake Snell was pitching when that was he was

0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:05.000
<v Speaker 6>dowing sixty pitches and first at that was boom, a

0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:10.560
<v Speaker 6>home run, and he was nasty and with guys like

0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:14.200
<v Speaker 6>Justin Ribleski, Andy PAHs Don rushing.

0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:16.520
<v Speaker 5>His own, Kim and.

0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:20.640
<v Speaker 6>Alex Freeland all showing the system's depth today.

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:24.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the depth is on full stage for this Dodger's team,

0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:28.880
<v Speaker 2>no doubt about it. Maxwell, appreciate it. Thanks for the

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 2>live report there from Texas As. Blake Snell made in

0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:35.760
<v Speaker 2>a triple A appearance in Round Rock, Texas with the

0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:39.720
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma City Comments in triple A four innings, two runs,

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:44.079
<v Speaker 2>two hits, four strikeouts, a walk. He threw fifty five pitches.

0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.080
<v Speaker 2>He gave up an early two run home run, but

0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.960
<v Speaker 2>then retired ten of the next eleven batters that he

0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:52.120
<v Speaker 2>faced today and looked pretty good as he got a

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:55.360
<v Speaker 2>little momentum going. He retired the side in order in

0:08:55.400 --> 0:08:58.440
<v Speaker 2>the second inning, picking up two more strikeouts in the inning,

0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:01.600
<v Speaker 2>and is well on his to four strikeouts in the

0:09:01.679 --> 0:09:04.280
<v Speaker 2>four innings of work. Again, fifty five pitches. You gotta

0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:08.160
<v Speaker 2>believe probably one more start underneath his belt, no matter

0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:11.679
<v Speaker 2>what level that's at, we'll probably see Blake Snell then

0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:14.319
<v Speaker 2>called back up and activated on the twenty six man

0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:17.559
<v Speaker 2>roster after one more start. And again that is gonna

0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:21.240
<v Speaker 2>be the big question. Who is out of the rotation

0:09:21.400 --> 0:09:24.120
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers. And again, things seem to always work

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:27.160
<v Speaker 2>themselves out. Maybe an I L stend, whatever the case

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:30.000
<v Speaker 2>may be, somebody's got some fatigue in the arm. Who

0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 2>knows things always seem to work out Just when we

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:34.480
<v Speaker 2>start to worry, or we start to speculate, or we

0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.560
<v Speaker 2>start to think what's this going to look like? Something

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 2>happens the next thing, you know, that worry that debates

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:44.319
<v Speaker 2>that question of what they're gonna do with that roster

0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:47.200
<v Speaker 2>spot works itself out, But for the time being, it'll

0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:50.800
<v Speaker 2>be interesting to see which one of the Dodger starters

0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:53.640
<v Speaker 2>currently in the rotation is taken out of the rotation

0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:56.839
<v Speaker 2>when Blake Snell is coming off the injured list. Eight six, six,

0:09:56.960 --> 0:09:59.800
<v Speaker 2>nine eighty seven, two five seventy is the number, Gil

0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:02.680
<v Speaker 2>San Diego, thanks for being patient on this Sunday afternoon

0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 2>after the Dodgers beat the Cardinals four to one in

0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Saint Louis, HOI you doing, Gil, Thanks.

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:11.960
<v Speaker 3>For taking my call to Tim. Two things, uh, First

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.079
<v Speaker 3>is what does Kim have to do to see in

0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 3>the lineup? He goes two for two today, you know,

0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:18.600
<v Speaker 3>and then he gets kicking out. And then number two

0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:22.040
<v Speaker 3>related to that is what's gonna happen when Mooki comes back.

0:10:22.080 --> 0:10:25.280
<v Speaker 3>I mean you're talking about with the pitching staff. I

0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:28.800
<v Speaker 3>mean it just seems like from what it was like,

0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:32.240
<v Speaker 3>Kim might be put back down again, and so yeah,

0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:33.520
<v Speaker 3>it's just it's just hard to see that.

0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's that's a tough one for me Gil that

0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:39.320
<v Speaker 2>that is a hard conversation if you're Dave Roberts, Andy

0:10:39.360 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 2>free or Andrew Freeman, you know, having to go to

0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Hi Sun Kim and say, hey, you guys, send you

0:10:45.679 --> 0:10:47.960
<v Speaker 2>back down to Triple I. I I don't see that

0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:51.840
<v Speaker 2>being the case. My guess would be Alex Freeland is

0:10:51.840 --> 0:10:53.800
<v Speaker 2>going to be the odd man out when Mookie Betts

0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:56.320
<v Speaker 2>comes back off the injury list with the oblique strain.

0:10:56.400 --> 0:10:59.360
<v Speaker 2>But you know what, we are closer to seeing the

0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:01.880
<v Speaker 2>return of Snell than we are to see in the

0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 2>return of Mookie Betts based on where he's at, what

0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:09.920
<v Speaker 2>he's doing with baseball activities. It was just what earlier

0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:12.280
<v Speaker 2>this week he was talking about, you know, still a

0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:16.160
<v Speaker 2>little bit of soortness, uh in baseball activities. So you know,

0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:18.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a doctor, but I'm gonna play one real

0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:21.120
<v Speaker 2>quick here on Dodger Talk. My guess is he's at

0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:25.000
<v Speaker 2>least a few weeks away, if not more, to coming

0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:27.200
<v Speaker 2>off the and at this point there's no need for

0:11:27.280 --> 0:11:29.640
<v Speaker 2>him to return with a sense of urgency or come

0:11:29.640 --> 0:11:33.760
<v Speaker 2>back quicker than he needs to get one hundred percent right.

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 2>Make sure there is no more swelling, no more soreness,

0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.840
<v Speaker 2>no more aching and that oblique and come back when

0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:42.520
<v Speaker 2>you're ready, and you're good to go for the rest

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:44.880
<v Speaker 2>of this season. Because at this point, the Dodgers are

0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:47.120
<v Speaker 2>a twenty one win team. You know, this is a

0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:49.680
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers team that is in first place in the division.

0:11:49.679 --> 0:11:52.000
<v Speaker 2>This is a Dodgers team that doesn't have to worry about,

0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:55.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, getting Mookie Bets back because we need him

0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.880
<v Speaker 2>so bad to stir our offense every day and to

0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:01.160
<v Speaker 2>be our defensive catalyst at shortstop. They've gotten away with

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.320
<v Speaker 2>not having him already for a majority of the season

0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:05.160
<v Speaker 2>with the old league strain, they can afford to have

0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 2>him out for a little bit longer. And again, not

0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:10.720
<v Speaker 2>a doctor, but based on where he's at and looking

0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:12.480
<v Speaker 2>at the fact that he still needs to go on

0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:15.920
<v Speaker 2>a minor league rehab assignment and playing some games and

0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:19.319
<v Speaker 2>get some innings and at bats underneath his belt, even

0:12:19.400 --> 0:12:22.480
<v Speaker 2>that feels like it's at least a few weeks away,

0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:25.439
<v Speaker 2>if not longer. So I don't think it's anytime soon

0:12:25.480 --> 0:12:27.199
<v Speaker 2>that Mookie Betts comes back. So we don't have to

0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.839
<v Speaker 2>have that conversation quite yet, but certainly when that comes up,

0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:34.680
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be hard to tell. Haysung Kim, great defense,

0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:37.000
<v Speaker 2>great job at the bottom of the order, but you're

0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.119
<v Speaker 2>going back to triple A. I would imagine that conversation

0:12:40.240 --> 0:12:42.320
<v Speaker 2>is going to be more with Alex Freeland than it

0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:44.360
<v Speaker 2>would be with Haisung Kim. Eighty six six, nine, eighty

0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:46.880
<v Speaker 2>seven two five seventy is the number as the Dodgers

0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.440
<v Speaker 2>get the four to one win over the Saint Louis Cardinals.

0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:52.400
<v Speaker 2>No more, no home runs today for the Dodgers. How

0:12:52.400 --> 0:12:56.720
<v Speaker 2>about that six straight games The Dodgers have not hit

0:12:56.920 --> 0:13:00.680
<v Speaker 2>a home run. The longest streak with a home run

0:13:00.760 --> 0:13:05.520
<v Speaker 2>before that eight games back in twenty fourteen, So the

0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:08.560
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers now six straight games without the long ball. Andy

0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:11.720
<v Speaker 2>Pot has an RBI double and then RBI singles from Kim,

0:13:12.000 --> 0:13:14.560
<v Speaker 2>Freeman and Alice calling the ninth inning, and the Dodgers

0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:16.800
<v Speaker 2>get the four to one win. Daniels Jewelers does present

<v Speaker 2>to Dodger Talk on an Fix seventy.

0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:36.760
<v Speaker 5>How you doing, I'm saying, good tim How about yourself?

0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing great. I got Zach and Colin here in studio,

0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.000
<v Speaker 2>just hanging out, talk a little Dodgers baseball.

0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:48.080
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so I want to talk about Sasaki. Everybody knows

0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:52.079
<v Speaker 5>that he's been struggling. Lady, He's not the same Tasaki

0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:55.120
<v Speaker 5>that we saw during the postseason. So one of the

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:58.280
<v Speaker 5>honest that he's out man out and he can send

0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:04.800
<v Speaker 5>down to the miners get more experienced to see.

0:14:05.320 --> 0:14:07.640
<v Speaker 2>That could be one of the options. That could be

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:10.560
<v Speaker 2>one of the options. Brian. I think by the time

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:13.360
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell gets back and we have to have this

0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:16.920
<v Speaker 2>discussion with somebody in the Dodger starring rotation, that little

0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:20.040
<v Speaker 2>long longer be there. You're looking at probably two more

0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:23.240
<v Speaker 2>starts for Roki Sasaki. I mean he's made now six

0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:25.920
<v Speaker 2>on the season, and you look at what he's done

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:29.600
<v Speaker 2>in the last you know, five starts, six earned runs,

0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:33.119
<v Speaker 2>two earned runs, three earn runs four earned runs yesterday,

0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:36.640
<v Speaker 2>three earned runs over six innings. Gave up the three early,

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:40.360
<v Speaker 2>bounced back and pitched well in the final three innings

0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:43.000
<v Speaker 2>of his outing yesterday, but still got tagged with the loss.

0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:46.680
<v Speaker 2>You could you see the potential. He's twenty four years old,

0:14:46.720 --> 0:14:48.560
<v Speaker 2>And I think it's a great point to bring up

0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:54.160
<v Speaker 2>the fact that the comparisons to Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Roki Sasaki, Well,

0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 2>Yamamoto comes over, gets all this money, and is you

0:14:58.120 --> 0:15:00.360
<v Speaker 2>know it looked about as a as one of the

0:15:00.400 --> 0:15:02.720
<v Speaker 2>best pitchers in baseball, and look what he's done, you know,

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.600
<v Speaker 2>the MVP of the World Series. And well, isn't rookie

0:15:05.600 --> 0:15:09.000
<v Speaker 2>Sazaki supposed to be the same. Well, the little younger

0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:13.640
<v Speaker 2>than Yamamodo, he wasn't as established or as decorated for

0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:15.800
<v Speaker 2>what he did over in Japan because he's still such

0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:18.560
<v Speaker 2>a young pitcher, just twenty four years old. He comes over,

0:15:18.840 --> 0:15:21.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, at the age of twenty two to play

0:15:21.200 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers. Now he's twenty four, doesn't have a

0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:26.400
<v Speaker 2>lot of starts underneath his belt. Last year he had

0:15:26.440 --> 0:15:28.840
<v Speaker 2>the up and down season. The injury was a big

0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:30.560
<v Speaker 2>part of it. We saw what he was able to

0:15:30.600 --> 0:15:33.960
<v Speaker 2>do in October and everybody got excited and everybody was like, wow,

0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:36.280
<v Speaker 2>this is something special. And once he goes back to

0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:38.760
<v Speaker 2>a starter, we're gonna just see this dominance all the time.

0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:41.440
<v Speaker 2>Hasn't panned out this year. He's been up and down.

0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:44.160
<v Speaker 2>He's shown some brilliance in some innings, and then there's

0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:46.520
<v Speaker 2>been innings they just completely get away from him and

0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:49.320
<v Speaker 2>he's got zero control of any of his pitches. So

0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's time to pull the plug on

0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:53.360
<v Speaker 2>him by any means. John Smoltz said this on Fox

0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:57.360
<v Speaker 2>yesterday that he is oozing with talent, and everybody wants

0:15:57.440 --> 0:16:00.320
<v Speaker 2>to be so quick to say, well, it's not working,

0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:02.320
<v Speaker 2>it's not what's wrong, what's wrong? How do we fix it?

0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:04.400
<v Speaker 2>He just needs to mature a little bit. He just

0:16:04.440 --> 0:16:07.320
<v Speaker 2>needs to, you know, to marinate, so to speak. And

0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:10.760
<v Speaker 2>if that marination means more starts in Triple A or

0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:14.320
<v Speaker 2>more starts at the big league level, but justin Robleski

0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:16.160
<v Speaker 2>or image Shean's there to back them up in a

0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:19.800
<v Speaker 2>tandem situation, then that's the scenario. I don't know which

0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:21.600
<v Speaker 2>direction they go. I think it's going to be a

0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:25.560
<v Speaker 2>fascinating decision when Blake Snell does come off the injured list,

0:16:25.560 --> 0:16:28.280
<v Speaker 2>And it's something we've been talking about and whispering about

0:16:28.320 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 2>for the last two weeks or so and every start

0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 2>that goes by between She and Sasaki and Robleski. Out

0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:38.280
<v Speaker 2>of the three, Robleski's the one that's at the top

0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:40.120
<v Speaker 2>of the list, and like, hard to take this guy

0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:41.680
<v Speaker 2>out of the rotation. You know, you can make an

0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:45.160
<v Speaker 2>argument for Sasaki and Shean not being the rotation anymore.

0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:47.680
<v Speaker 2>You can certainly make a case for a Sasaki, you know,

0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:50.760
<v Speaker 2>maybe going back to the bullpen she and being the

0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:53.560
<v Speaker 2>tandem guy, the bulkating guy behind the Sasaki. There's there's

0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:57.120
<v Speaker 2>different avenues that they can take. I just cannot wait

0:16:57.160 --> 0:16:59.920
<v Speaker 2>to see which is the decision they go to. Without

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.520
<v Speaker 2>all being said, all these guys are going to be

0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:04.560
<v Speaker 2>asked to be a part of this team in a

0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:07.119
<v Speaker 2>big way all season long, and their roles are going

0:17:07.200 --> 0:17:09.400
<v Speaker 2>to be asked to be big all season long, no

0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:11.200
<v Speaker 2>matter that as a starter or a leiever, a bull

0:17:11.240 --> 0:17:13.920
<v Speaker 2>geting guy in the rotation, out of the rotation. It's

0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:16.400
<v Speaker 2>a long season. Folks, were just now at May third

0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:21.400
<v Speaker 2>and things happen, Injuries happens, ups and downs, the seasons happened.

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:24.040
<v Speaker 2>That's all going to come into factor here in twenty

0:17:24.080 --> 0:17:27.520
<v Speaker 2>twenty six. But without a doubt all these guys were

0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:30.040
<v Speaker 2>talking about in the rotation. You know, the log jam

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:32.840
<v Speaker 2>is starting pitching is a first world problem, I guess

0:17:32.960 --> 0:17:35.480
<v Speaker 2>is what you would say around Major League Baseball, because

0:17:35.520 --> 0:17:38.840
<v Speaker 2>there are number of teams that don't even have enough

0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.879
<v Speaker 2>starting pitching or caliber starters like the Dodgers have. So

0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:45.640
<v Speaker 2>what they have is a first world problem, a good

0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.879
<v Speaker 2>problem to have, and certainly shows the depth of this organization.

0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:51.320
<v Speaker 2>It's only going to get deeper when you get you know,

0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:54.320
<v Speaker 2>a Bruce dar Gratterol who made a minor league rehab

0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:58.000
<v Speaker 2>assignment outing last night, his first in two years. You

0:17:58.000 --> 0:17:59.800
<v Speaker 2>know you're gonna get back of Brock Stewart off the

0:17:59.880 --> 0:18:02.800
<v Speaker 2>end list here very shortly. Where does he slot into

0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:05.000
<v Speaker 2>the bullpen? Which arm? And the bullpen is then gonna

0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:07.720
<v Speaker 2>be the odd man out. So these are good problems

0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:10.359
<v Speaker 2>to have, but no doubt. Keep in mind, it's May,

0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:12.399
<v Speaker 2>and just because a guy is taking out of the

0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.119
<v Speaker 2>rotation in May doesn't mean he'll be back in the

0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.119
<v Speaker 2>rotation in June or is not going to be a

0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:19.399
<v Speaker 2>huge factor for this Dodgers team the second half of

0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:22.720
<v Speaker 2>the season and come October, Because without a doubt, all

0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.440
<v Speaker 2>these guys are going to be counted on in whatever

0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:28.280
<v Speaker 2>capacity to help out this Dodgers team. Eight six six

0:18:28.359 --> 0:18:30.040

0:19:38.560 --> 0:19:40.920
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers beat the Cardinals four to one in Saint

0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Louis Justin Robleski six shutout innings. Tenor Scott got his

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:49.520
<v Speaker 2>second save of this season, pitching a one two three

0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:52.800
<v Speaker 2>ninth inning for the Dodgers, who improved a twenty one

0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:55.600
<v Speaker 2>and three overall, and they get the win. Being their

0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 2>former teammate Dustin May, he got his World Series ring

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:00.280
<v Speaker 2>on Friday night and then he got a hung with

0:20:00.359 --> 0:20:03.160
<v Speaker 2>the loss on Sunday by the Dodgers. He allowed three

0:20:03.280 --> 0:20:06.160
<v Speaker 2>runs on seven hits over six innings in his first

0:20:06.200 --> 0:20:08.840
<v Speaker 2>start against his former team that drafted him way back

0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:11.680
<v Speaker 2>win and came up into the major leagues seven plus

0:20:11.720 --> 0:20:14.240
<v Speaker 2>seasons with the Dodgers. They traded him to the Red

0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:17.600
<v Speaker 2>Sox last year at the trade deadline, and it comes

0:20:17.640 --> 0:20:20.520
<v Speaker 2>back today with six innings against the Dodgers. But the

0:20:20.560 --> 0:20:24.080
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers get the victory. Saint Louis has their six game

0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 2>winning streak come to an end, and they do it

0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:29.520
<v Speaker 2>again without hitting a home run for their sixth straight game.

0:20:30.240 --> 0:20:33.200
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers saw show Hey Otani go oh for three

0:20:33.320 --> 0:20:35.920
<v Speaker 2>today with a walk and a hit by pitch from

0:20:36.040 --> 0:20:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Justin Brule, the former Dodger, in the seventh inning. Otani

0:20:39.200 --> 0:20:44.680
<v Speaker 2>oh for fourteen in his last four games, his longest

0:20:45.040 --> 0:20:48.840
<v Speaker 2>hitless streak since going five games without a hit as

0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:53.280
<v Speaker 2>a member of the Angels in May of twenty twenty two.

0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:57.240
<v Speaker 2>So the Dodgers win despite no production at the plate

0:20:57.400 --> 0:21:00.440
<v Speaker 2>from Show Hey Otani. Freddie Freeman a two hour RBI

0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:02.879
<v Speaker 2>single up the middle of the fifth put the Dodgers

0:21:02.960 --> 0:21:05.520
<v Speaker 2>up three to nothing, and then Alex Call with the

0:21:05.520 --> 0:21:08.400
<v Speaker 2>pinch hit RBI single in the ninth inning. The Dodgers

0:21:08.480 --> 0:21:10.680
<v Speaker 2>get the win to salvage the series in Saint Louis.

0:21:10.720 --> 0:21:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Now it's off to Houston. Yoshinobu Yamamoto will get the

0:21:13.560 --> 0:21:15.480
<v Speaker 2>start in the series opener. Show he Otani will go

0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:18.720
<v Speaker 2>on Tuesday. Tyler Glass now scheduled to go on Wednesday.

0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers Baseball is brought to you by Medello Midelo. The

0:21:21.320 --> 0:21:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Mark of a fighter and go to Colorado and my

0:21:25.480 --> 0:21:29.240
<v Speaker 2>guy Blake checks in here on Dodger Talk on this

0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:31.240
<v Speaker 2>Sunday afternoon. What's going on, Blake.

0:21:32.840 --> 0:21:36.000
<v Speaker 6>I'm really glad that don get a win today.

0:21:36.560 --> 0:21:39.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they did so without hitting a home run, no

0:21:39.400 --> 0:21:43.240
<v Speaker 2>strikeouts from Justin Robleski, Blake, what do you do when

0:21:43.280 --> 0:21:46.800
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell comes back into this rotation off the injured list?

0:21:47.119 --> 0:21:48.919
<v Speaker 2>Who's no longer in the rotation?

0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:55.719
<v Speaker 7>I would say, sank wokee to talking down to tri

0:21:55.720 --> 0:22:01.080
<v Speaker 7>A Blade. He hasn't had a good Kay, She's not

0:22:01.320 --> 0:22:02.320
<v Speaker 7>doing great right now.

0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:06.280
<v Speaker 2>I've just though, Yeah, you gotta wonder if a send

0:22:06.280 --> 0:22:08.960
<v Speaker 2>down to Triple A is the answer, or maybe he

0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:12.040
<v Speaker 2>and an Image, she and you know, become a tandem

0:22:12.520 --> 0:22:15.480
<v Speaker 2>and moving forward, Sasaki gets to start and we see

0:22:15.480 --> 0:22:17.600
<v Speaker 2>how long you could go the least gets a little shorter.

0:22:17.800 --> 0:22:20.560
<v Speaker 2>Blake and you got Image. Sheen to be a bulkeanning guy.

0:22:21.040 --> 0:22:22.840
<v Speaker 2>Both of them deserve to be in the rotation, no

0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:26.720
<v Speaker 2>doubt about it. Both have pitched well. But with Blake

0:22:26.760 --> 0:22:29.400
<v Speaker 2>Snell coming back, you gotta make a decision, and it's

0:22:29.400 --> 0:22:32.760
<v Speaker 2>a hard it's a hard decision to tell Justin Robleski sorry,

0:22:32.760 --> 0:22:34.400
<v Speaker 2>you're five and zero. You got one of the top

0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:37.359
<v Speaker 2>three e ras in baseball the first six weeks of

0:22:37.359 --> 0:22:39.439
<v Speaker 2>the season, but you're no longer in the rotation. I

0:22:39.560 --> 0:22:41.359
<v Speaker 2>just I can't see that happening, Blake.

0:22:43.240 --> 0:22:45.520
<v Speaker 7>No, No, he's been good.

0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:49.359
<v Speaker 4>He's been good for us. And with like Tommy Edmond

0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:52.640
<v Speaker 4>and Kik coming back, who's gonna have a good season?

0:22:52.920 --> 0:22:53.200
<v Speaker 8>Oh?

0:22:53.240 --> 0:22:55.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean they're already in first place and they're doing

0:22:55.320 --> 0:22:58.199
<v Speaker 2>so with those guys you mentioned on the injured list, No,

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Blake Snell, a bullpen that's got a lot of arms

0:23:02.359 --> 0:23:04.280
<v Speaker 2>still on the men that will come back and help

0:23:04.320 --> 0:23:06.919
<v Speaker 2>out at some point. And you again no Mookie Bets

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:08.399
<v Speaker 2>for the better part of this season out with the

0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:11.760
<v Speaker 2>obleaque injury. This is this shows you, Blake, just how

0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:14.280
<v Speaker 2>deep this team it is, right, Just how how many

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:17.320
<v Speaker 2>guys it takes to contribute, and how good the Dodgers

0:23:17.320 --> 0:23:22.280
<v Speaker 2>are compared to everybody else. Yeah, all right, my man,

0:23:22.320 --> 0:23:24.200
<v Speaker 2>Everything good with you outside of baseball?

0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:27.040
<v Speaker 6>Yeah? All right?

0:23:27.520 --> 0:23:28.920
<v Speaker 2>You have any plans this summer? A you're gonna go

0:23:28.920 --> 0:23:29.520
<v Speaker 2>on any trips?

0:23:31.080 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 9>Not yet yet.

0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:33.160
<v Speaker 7>I'll let you know.

0:23:33.560 --> 0:23:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Please do because last year you went on those great trips. Uh,

0:23:36.520 --> 0:23:38.360
<v Speaker 2>to see the Dodgers play on the road and see

0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:41.120
<v Speaker 2>them in different ballparks around the country. So uh, maybe

0:23:41.160 --> 0:23:42.960
<v Speaker 2>you get back out on the road. Either way. Great

0:23:42.960 --> 0:23:44.600

<v Speaker 3>Be back.

0:23:47.200 --> 0:23:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I'll be back later and during the week. How about that?

0:23:52.280 --> 0:23:53.480
<v Speaker 7>Okay, talk to you when.

0:23:54.960 --> 0:23:57.160
<v Speaker 2>I think so. We'll talk to you then, Blake. Good

0:23:57.160 --> 0:23:59.560
<v Speaker 2>to hear from you, my man. That opens up a line.

0:23:59.560 --> 0:24:03.000
<v Speaker 2>It ain't sick six nine seventy Daniel in Long Beaches

0:24:03.040 --> 0:24:05.440
<v Speaker 2>next up here on Dodger Talk after a Dodgers four

0:24:05.480 --> 0:24:07.639
<v Speaker 2>to one win over the Saint Louis Cardinals to snap

0:24:07.680 --> 0:24:10.520
<v Speaker 2>their four game losing streak. How are you doing there, Daniel,

0:24:11.960 --> 0:24:12.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing great.

0:24:12.640 --> 0:24:13.040
<v Speaker 3>How are you?

0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:16.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing great? Dodgers get the win, Justin Robleski's a

0:24:16.320 --> 0:24:18.520
<v Speaker 2>stud and the Dodgers are still in first place.

0:24:19.920 --> 0:24:22.680
<v Speaker 8>That's right, man, Yeah, it looks great today. So I

0:24:22.880 --> 0:24:25.119
<v Speaker 8>got a question about two players for you who are

0:24:25.119 --> 0:24:28.000
<v Speaker 8>in the organization. Two young guys who seem to have

0:24:28.000 --> 0:24:31.000
<v Speaker 8>had all the potential at some point, you know, during

0:24:31.040 --> 0:24:33.720
<v Speaker 8>their careers, and guys Gavin Stone. I'm curious, do you

0:24:33.760 --> 0:24:36.080
<v Speaker 8>think he's gonna get some runway as a starter this year.

0:24:36.720 --> 0:24:40.480
<v Speaker 8>And Bobby Miller, you know, a guy that's in the organization.

0:24:40.840 --> 0:24:42.560
<v Speaker 8>It seems like they may have missed the boat to

0:24:42.600 --> 0:24:45.080
<v Speaker 8>trade him at some point, but he's still with the team.

0:24:45.280 --> 0:24:47.080
<v Speaker 8>I'm not sure what its value is at this point,

0:24:47.080 --> 0:24:48.600
<v Speaker 8>but do you think he's going to be up with

0:24:48.640 --> 0:24:50.480
<v Speaker 8>the big league team at any point during this year?

0:24:50.840 --> 0:24:55.399
<v Speaker 2>Appreciate it, thanks for checking in. Bobby Miller and Gavin

0:24:55.440 --> 0:24:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Stone both not really pitching right now, and Gavin Stone

0:24:59.640 --> 0:25:02.400
<v Speaker 2>gave it a try in spring training. Gavin Stone had

0:25:02.400 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 2>a setback with his shoulder and is still just kind

0:25:06.440 --> 0:25:08.840
<v Speaker 2>of up in the air. And we're seeing Bobby Miller

0:25:08.920 --> 0:25:11.879
<v Speaker 2>down in the minor leagues, not pitching any games yet.

0:25:12.040 --> 0:25:15.720
<v Speaker 2>So Bobby Miller is still bothered by the shoulder sowortness

0:25:15.720 --> 0:25:18.800
<v Speaker 2>that he had during spring training as well. So neither

0:25:18.880 --> 0:25:22.000
<v Speaker 2>are close. Neither right now are you know, expected to

0:25:22.480 --> 0:25:24.679
<v Speaker 2>contribute at any point. In fact, Bobby Miller's on the

0:25:24.720 --> 0:25:28.359
<v Speaker 2>sixty day il with that right shoulder swordness, so he

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:31.920
<v Speaker 2>is not looking like he's going to be back anytime soon.

0:25:31.920 --> 0:25:34.959
<v Speaker 2>And Gavin Stone a guy you root for because think

0:25:35.000 --> 0:25:37.840
<v Speaker 2>about what Gavin Stone meant to this Dodgers team in

0:25:37.920 --> 0:25:40.480
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty four. I mean go back to the injuries

0:25:40.520 --> 0:25:43.480
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers had, and that was prevalent all the way

0:25:43.480 --> 0:25:46.280
<v Speaker 2>through the postseason, right, I mean bullpen games they had

0:25:46.320 --> 0:25:48.240
<v Speaker 2>the World Series, what they had two or three games

0:25:48.280 --> 0:25:50.239
<v Speaker 2>in which there were bullpen games because they didn't have

0:25:50.359 --> 0:25:54.320
<v Speaker 2>enough starting pitching. Gavin Stone made twenty five starts in

0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:57.320
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty four. Where would they be without them? You

0:25:57.359 --> 0:25:59.159
<v Speaker 2>can make a case they don't win the division in

0:25:59.160 --> 0:26:02.480
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty four. He was that good, eleven wins, He

0:26:02.520 --> 0:26:05.240
<v Speaker 2>had an era you know, three and a half. You know,

0:26:05.320 --> 0:26:07.600
<v Speaker 2>he struck out one hundred and sixteen in those twenty

0:26:07.600 --> 0:26:10.399
<v Speaker 2>five starts, and then his arm just gave out on

0:26:10.520 --> 0:26:15.440
<v Speaker 2>him late in August early September and wasn't around come

0:26:15.480 --> 0:26:18.480
<v Speaker 2>the postseason. But he left it all out there during

0:26:18.520 --> 0:26:21.800
<v Speaker 2>the regular season. Unfortunately, Gavin Stone has battled the arm

0:26:21.840 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 2>and shoulder injuries the last year plus and has not

0:26:25.840 --> 0:26:28.439
<v Speaker 2>been back since he was out there pitching for the

0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:32.280
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers in twenty twenty four. So he's not anywhere close

0:26:32.320 --> 0:26:35.880
<v Speaker 2>to coming back, nor is Bobby Miller. But yeah, certainly

0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:38.159
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers right now have a pluth throw of starting pitching,

0:26:38.200 --> 0:26:40.840
<v Speaker 2>and we mentioned the bullpen with Blake, you know, mentioned

0:26:40.840 --> 0:26:42.680
<v Speaker 2>a couple of names that are still out there, Bruce

0:26:42.760 --> 0:26:47.520
<v Speaker 2>dar Graderol brox Stewart, still out there making their way

0:26:47.560 --> 0:26:50.399
<v Speaker 2>back In brock Stewart, I gotta believe he's gonna be

0:26:50.440 --> 0:26:53.000
<v Speaker 2>back closer than we expect because he's already made a

0:26:53.000 --> 0:26:55.439
<v Speaker 2>couple of appearances in the minor leagues. He's pitched on

0:26:55.480 --> 0:26:57.600
<v Speaker 2>back to back games that checked a couple of boxes.

0:26:57.880 --> 0:27:00.320
<v Speaker 2>So brock Stewart should be ready to go. And at

0:27:00.320 --> 0:27:02.520
<v Speaker 2>some point I expected the right hander to be back

0:27:02.560 --> 0:27:05.680
<v Speaker 2>up and joined the Dodgers bullpen. Bruce dark Ratorol, case

0:27:05.680 --> 0:27:08.600
<v Speaker 2>you missed it, last night through in TRIPAA, Oklahoma City,

0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:11.560
<v Speaker 2>his first time on a mountain since Game five of

0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:14.080
<v Speaker 2>the twenty twenty four World Series. That's how long it's

0:27:14.119 --> 0:27:17.400
<v Speaker 2>been since he's pitched in a minor league or major

0:27:17.480 --> 0:27:20.400
<v Speaker 2>league game. And he was back out there last night

0:27:20.480 --> 0:27:23.960
<v Speaker 2>surly checking a box and another step forward for the Bozuka,

0:27:24.040 --> 0:27:27.600
<v Speaker 2>which would be fantastic get him back in this bullpen.

0:27:27.720 --> 0:27:29.439
<v Speaker 2>Let's wrap things up real quick with Izzy before we

0:27:29.480 --> 0:27:31.800
<v Speaker 2>hear from the manager Dave Roberts, Isy, how.

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:36.919
<v Speaker 7>You doing today, Hey, Kim, I told you to calm down.

0:27:37.080 --> 0:27:40.640
<v Speaker 7>They'll be fine. I'm pretty too many patrols to calm down.

0:27:41.040 --> 0:27:44.360
<v Speaker 7>This isn't the time to wary. This was the playoffs. Yeah,

0:27:44.480 --> 0:27:47.840
<v Speaker 7>I would bring up the kind of bread, but hey, weall. Yeah,

0:27:47.840 --> 0:27:50.680
<v Speaker 7>I invited it to my busy party. I did this

0:27:50.880 --> 0:27:53.840
<v Speaker 7>tenny to you. But anyway, it was a good game today,

0:27:54.000 --> 0:27:59.040
<v Speaker 7>So it's yeah, you know, it's when I did which

0:27:59.160 --> 0:28:02.040
<v Speaker 7>we could have won the series. But maybe we can

0:28:02.080 --> 0:28:06.960
<v Speaker 7>win this series is Houston. It's a long season. Yeah,

0:28:07.280 --> 0:28:10.679
<v Speaker 7>it's a long season. People. Let's just calm down and

0:28:11.320 --> 0:28:14.200
<v Speaker 7>we'll be fine. You play them when on Wednesday, because

0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:16.960
<v Speaker 7>my body is on Thursday and the Dodges on scared

0:28:17.040 --> 0:28:20.440
<v Speaker 7>go on Tuesday to win. But never my I'm scaredule

0:28:20.520 --> 0:28:21.080
<v Speaker 7>on Thursday.

0:28:21.320 --> 0:28:21.639
<v Speaker 3>Stuff.

0:28:21.960 --> 0:28:26.439
<v Speaker 7>Whatever, it's the schedule it but yeah, the dogs be fine, guys.

0:28:27.480 --> 0:28:29.560
<v Speaker 7>One thing I didn't meet you asked you think I've

0:28:29.600 --> 0:28:34.000
<v Speaker 7>been dying to know is the anything I heart Radio

0:28:34.200 --> 0:28:37.359
<v Speaker 7>have have a the Tripway team. I know the quake

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:38.760
<v Speaker 7>is ThisDay? Any move?

0:28:39.480 --> 0:28:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh you're looking at Ontario tower buzzers? Yeah, you know,

0:28:43.760 --> 0:28:46.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure. I'll look into that for you is

0:28:46.360 --> 0:28:49.040
<v Speaker 2>and I'll shoot you a text or next time we talk.

0:28:49.120 --> 0:28:51.520
<v Speaker 2>I'll hope to have an update for you. But I

0:28:51.640 --> 0:28:53.800
<v Speaker 2>just don't know if they're carrying the games on the

0:28:53.800 --> 0:28:57.040
<v Speaker 2>iHeartRadio app like the Rancho Cuckamonga Quakes did. So I'll

0:28:57.040 --> 0:28:59.520
<v Speaker 2>look into that for you and hopefully get an answer

0:28:59.800 --> 0:29:03.760
<v Speaker 2>very soon. Dodgers get to win four to one over

0:29:03.800 --> 0:29:07.400
<v Speaker 2>the Saint Louis Cardinals. Justin Robleski the six shutout innings.

0:29:07.440 --> 0:29:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Tanner Scott picks up the save as the Dodgers get

0:29:10.080 --> 0:29:12.280
<v Speaker 2>the series finale in Saint Louis. Let's head back out

0:29:12.320 --> 0:29:15.000
<v Speaker 2>to Bush Stadium and let's hear from the manager, Dave

0:29:15.080 --> 0:29:16.400
<v Speaker 2>roberts Day.

0:29:16.440 --> 0:29:18.480
<v Speaker 4>When you have someone like Justin Rooblaski, we know that

0:29:18.520 --> 0:29:20.440
<v Speaker 4>he's been pounding the zone, but when he gets through

0:29:20.480 --> 0:29:22.800
<v Speaker 4>six shoutout innings without a strikeout, what does it just

0:29:22.800 --> 0:29:25.240
<v Speaker 4>say as to how he's exactly kind of navigating to

0:29:25.280 --> 0:29:26.680
<v Speaker 4>their lineup and what he's been able to do.

0:29:27.040 --> 0:29:30.080
<v Speaker 9>You know, I think it's just it's it's what it does.

0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:33.520
<v Speaker 9>It keeps the defense involved, he's got a good pace

0:29:33.600 --> 0:29:36.760
<v Speaker 9>to it to him, you know, puts the ball in play,

0:29:37.120 --> 0:29:39.280
<v Speaker 9>and obviously he'd like to get some more swing a miss,

0:29:39.280 --> 0:29:41.240
<v Speaker 9>but you know, those guys are swinging the bats and

0:29:41.800 --> 0:29:44.440
<v Speaker 9>you know, hitting it guys and a lot of soft contact.

0:29:44.480 --> 0:29:47.200
<v Speaker 9>And again, I just like the way that guys stay

0:29:47.240 --> 0:29:50.200
<v Speaker 9>involved behind him, and you know, every single time he

0:29:50.360 --> 0:29:52.920
<v Speaker 9>takes the baseball, it just we have an opportunity to

0:29:52.960 --> 0:29:55.640
<v Speaker 9>win a game, most importantly, and he goes deep in games,

0:29:55.800 --> 0:29:58.720
<v Speaker 9>and so for me, I just feel like he's always

0:29:58.800 --> 0:30:03.160
<v Speaker 9>prepared sequences differently and just goes after guys.

0:30:03.320 --> 0:30:05.120
<v Speaker 4>How to the game, you talked about the importance of

0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:07.600
<v Speaker 4>getting things going early, just as Hee those two runs

0:30:07.640 --> 0:30:09.480
<v Speaker 4>in the second. Did you feel like this was a

0:30:09.480 --> 0:30:11.400
<v Speaker 4>good sign for the offense and how they can kind

0:30:11.400 --> 0:30:12.000
<v Speaker 4>of continue to.

0:30:11.920 --> 0:30:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Move in the right direction.

0:30:12.960 --> 0:30:15.560
<v Speaker 9>I think so, I think so. You know, I thought

0:30:15.920 --> 0:30:20.880
<v Speaker 9>collectively the bets are good and getting timely hits, having

0:30:20.920 --> 0:30:23.640
<v Speaker 9>some good walks and good at bats and you know, yeah,

0:30:23.680 --> 0:30:25.720
<v Speaker 9>we didn't break out today, but we scored more than

0:30:25.760 --> 0:30:27.960
<v Speaker 9>they did, so that's a good start.

0:30:28.080 --> 0:30:31.000
<v Speaker 10>With Rubleski, you mentioned he's going to pretty much every

0:30:31.080 --> 0:30:34.400
<v Speaker 10>start keeping them to one or no run. Just what

0:30:34.480 --> 0:30:37.920
<v Speaker 10>kind of team impact does that kind of ripple out

0:30:37.960 --> 0:30:39.520
<v Speaker 10>with that consistency.

0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:43.440
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, you know, it's it's it's it's a team. When

0:30:43.520 --> 0:30:46.120
<v Speaker 9>you know guys with him, you know he's gonna go

0:30:46.120 --> 0:30:48.280
<v Speaker 9>at guys the defense here of like they're part of that.

0:30:48.320 --> 0:30:50.200
<v Speaker 9>They're on their they're on their toes ready to make

0:30:50.240 --> 0:30:52.239
<v Speaker 9>a play. And the bottom line is to get as

0:30:52.280 --> 0:30:54.320
<v Speaker 9>many outs as you can any way you can. And

0:30:54.680 --> 0:30:57.360
<v Speaker 9>he's certainly been efficient, So it's not like you know,

0:30:57.400 --> 0:31:00.480
<v Speaker 9>he's not efficient and not striking guys out. He's efficient

0:31:00.840 --> 0:31:04.239
<v Speaker 9>getting guys out most importantly and getting out. So I

0:31:04.280 --> 0:31:07.080
<v Speaker 9>love what he's doing. And it was good to get

0:31:07.600 --> 0:31:10.120
<v Speaker 9>you know, Tanner in there. It was good to get

0:31:10.960 --> 0:31:14.400
<v Speaker 9>Blake in there and up and down for clients. So

0:31:14.640 --> 0:31:16.800
<v Speaker 9>just across the board, just a good, good ball.

0:31:16.640 --> 0:31:19.880
<v Speaker 3>Game, clotard being I'll tell you about without swinging miss

0:31:19.960 --> 0:31:22.840
<v Speaker 3>results like Roubuski's might not be sustainable. I think Rubuski

0:31:22.920 --> 0:31:24.680
<v Speaker 3>would be the first to say that he doesn't care

0:31:25.480 --> 0:31:27.880
<v Speaker 3>when you look at his how he's attacking and most

0:31:28.040 --> 0:31:30.160
<v Speaker 3>I think his tenacity for the first pitch strike.

0:31:29.960 --> 0:31:30.800
<v Speaker 2>And hammering the zone.

0:31:31.040 --> 0:31:34.240
<v Speaker 10>How does that aggression maybe not reflect in the metrics,

0:31:34.240 --> 0:31:35.880
<v Speaker 10>but reflect on him as a pitcher.

0:31:36.080 --> 0:31:40.720
<v Speaker 9>Well, I think that he is very understanding of the

0:31:40.760 --> 0:31:44.480
<v Speaker 9>most important things to get out and you're either going

0:31:44.560 --> 0:31:48.040
<v Speaker 9>to chase strikeouts and work behind and nibble and not

0:31:48.160 --> 0:31:50.680
<v Speaker 9>be efficient, go shorter in games, or you're going to

0:31:50.760 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 9>keep going after guys and getting outs. And I think

0:31:53.680 --> 0:31:55.680
<v Speaker 9>for me, just to kind of push back on the

0:31:55.880 --> 0:31:57.960
<v Speaker 9>unlucky or the lucky part of things is there's a

0:31:58.040 --> 0:32:01.320
<v Speaker 9>lot of soft contact. There's a lot of lazy fly balls,

0:32:01.480 --> 0:32:05.240
<v Speaker 9>soft grounders, pop ups and things like that. So he's

0:32:05.280 --> 0:32:06.440
<v Speaker 9>he going to have a one at the end of

0:32:06.480 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 9>the day. Probably not, But I still think he's done

0:32:10.560 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 9>a great job as a starting pitcher for us.

0:32:12.560 --> 0:32:14.880
<v Speaker 2>All Right, there's a manager, Dave Roberts talking a lot

0:32:14.920 --> 0:32:18.640
<v Speaker 2>about Justin Robleski what he has done for this Dodgers team,

0:32:18.720 --> 0:32:22.080
<v Speaker 2>and hard to argue with the success six scoreless innings today,

0:32:22.600 --> 0:32:25.000
<v Speaker 2>he has been fantastic. Now at five and zero on

0:32:25.040 --> 0:32:27.440
<v Speaker 2>this season, he's got a one to fifty two E

0:32:27.640 --> 0:32:30.200
<v Speaker 2>r ray, a sub one E r ray as a

0:32:30.240 --> 0:32:33.360
<v Speaker 2>starting pitcher in the five starts, his two earned runs

0:32:33.360 --> 0:32:36.440
<v Speaker 2>over thirty two innings of work as the Dodgers left

0:32:36.440 --> 0:32:39.400
<v Speaker 2>hander gets the win yet again today as the Dodgers

0:32:39.400 --> 0:32:42.160
<v Speaker 2>get the four to one win over the Cardinals. Matches

0:32:42.200 --> 0:32:45.360
<v Speaker 2>next up, Mitchie there, Yeah, yeah.

0:32:45.240 --> 0:32:49.920
<v Speaker 5>I doing tim side the gluton of pitchers and bets.

0:32:50.000 --> 0:32:53.040
<v Speaker 5>How about Russia? He had to get on a bet

0:32:53.120 --> 0:32:56.520
<v Speaker 5>too long, Will Smith. It's a real nice problem to have,

0:32:56.600 --> 0:32:58.040
<v Speaker 5>and thanks all.

0:32:58.000 --> 0:33:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Right, Mitch. Good to hear from you. It is a

0:33:00.480 --> 0:33:03.000
<v Speaker 2>good problem to have. And finding a batch for Dalton

0:33:03.080 --> 0:33:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Rushing has proven to be something that Dave Roberts is

0:33:06.360 --> 0:33:08.640
<v Speaker 2>trying to do every single series, whether it's give him

0:33:08.640 --> 0:33:11.400
<v Speaker 2>starts behind the plate, whether it's get him some at

0:33:11.440 --> 0:33:13.719
<v Speaker 2>bats off the bench. You know, will we see him

0:33:13.720 --> 0:33:16.080
<v Speaker 2>getting some more starts at first base? I have to

0:33:16.120 --> 0:33:18.720
<v Speaker 2>believe so to get Freddie Freeman off his feet. But

0:33:19.360 --> 0:33:21.880
<v Speaker 2>out of every Dodger player, kind of feel like Freddie

0:33:21.880 --> 0:33:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Freeman is the hardest guy to tell you're not in

0:33:24.000 --> 0:33:27.000
<v Speaker 2>the lineup today because he wants to play every single day,

0:33:27.040 --> 0:33:29.080
<v Speaker 2>even when he has been sick over the weekend in

0:33:29.120 --> 0:33:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Saint Louis telling Dave Roberts, I want to play, I

0:33:31.800 --> 0:33:33.280
<v Speaker 2>want to start. I'll give you as much as I

0:33:33.320 --> 0:33:34.880
<v Speaker 2>can and I'll let you know when I can't go

0:33:34.920 --> 0:33:38.000
<v Speaker 2>any more. And Freddie Freeman just that kind of guy

0:33:38.120 --> 0:33:40.720
<v Speaker 2>wants to play every single day. So finding that batch

0:33:40.720 --> 0:33:43.000
<v Speaker 2>for Dalton Rushing has been hard, but they've been able

0:33:43.040 --> 0:33:45.120
<v Speaker 2>to do that, and certainly when he's gotten the time,

0:33:45.480 --> 0:33:47.840
<v Speaker 2>he has made the most of it and been a

0:33:47.880 --> 0:33:50.920
<v Speaker 2>guy who's hit the long ball and certainly produced when

0:33:51.120 --> 0:33:52.760
<v Speaker 2>his name has been asked. All Right, that's going to

0:33:52.800 --> 0:33:55.400
<v Speaker 2>do it for Dodger Talk here on Sunday afternoon. Thanks

0:33:55.400 --> 0:33:57.640
<v Speaker 2>to Zach, Thanks to all you Dodger fans for being
