That's the one 8 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: and only Chase Sutley. Chase is out here at Dodger Camp. 9 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,480 Speaker 1: Great to see you back out here, David. 10 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 2: Great to be out here and great to be talking 11 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 2: with you. 12 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: Oh, come on, you know it. I'm the only guy 13 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: that keeps you humble. 14 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 2: That is whatever you need. Let's let's wrap. Do you okay? 15 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: You have this reputation when you were playing that obviously 16 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,840 Speaker 1: you were an intense player. Do you feel like now 17 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: post playing where people still feel like you're unapproachable. 18 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 2: The ones that don't know me. Yeah, I believe so. 19 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 3: I felt like on the on the field, I needed 20 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 3: to have a certain persona and something to get me 21 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 3: to play my best, and that was to be take 22 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 3: it extremely serious and have some type of intimidating features, 23 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 3: so that I felt like that gave me a slight 24 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 3: advantage on the field. 25 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 2: Off the field, not not quite so much. 26 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: You do things with a purpose, not only going against 27 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: the competition, but did you feel the edge that you 28 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:24,320 Speaker 1: brought was something of a strategy to keep your teammates also, 29 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: you know, focused on the task at hand. 30 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 31 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: At a young age, I was always taught to try 32 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 3: to try to lead by by example. 33 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 2: Do it on the field. You don't necessarily do it 34 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 2: by what you say. So I try to lead that way. 35 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 3: And it really depends on the on the on the 36 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 3: personnel and the team. But I feel like if everyone kind 37 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 3: of has that similar mindset, it can be it can 38 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: really create a winning culture. 39 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: We've talked about this a few times. People know that 40 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: you went over the pond for three years. Are you 41 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: permanently back in the States and are you are you 42 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: ted lassode? Have they turned you into ted Lass? Or 43 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: you still baseball? 44 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 3: Chase Utlely still still baseball, but I have become a 45 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 3: football fan is what you would call it over there. 46 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 3: But yeah, I really enjoyed our time living over there 47 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 3: for three years. Had a blast with my wife and 48 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 3: my kids, and saw all of Europe really showed them 49 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 3: something that they wouldn't necessarily see. So we're happy that 50 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 3: we did it. But we're also happy to be back, 51 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 3: happy to be back in southern California. 52 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: Are you back with the Dodgers because you were a 53 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: vital part after you stop playing a part of the 54 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: game planning for the Dodgers, do you feel like you 55 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: want to get back into that role. 56 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm here. It's being training. I'll be around. 57 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, you might have to see me a little bit 58 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 3: more throughout the course of the season. But yeah, obviously, 59 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 3: as we all know, amazing organization Andrews Andrew is the 60 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 3: best out there. So to have the ability to to learn, 61 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 3: to continue to learn, absorb, interact with the current big 62 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,399 Speaker 3: league guys, maybe make some relationships on the minor league level. 63 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 2: I'm I'm just here to help. 64 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: Where you at in your baseball life or your post playing. 65 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: Are you still searching for where you fit wanting to 66 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: be part of the game or do you feel like 67 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: you want to be in the evaluation part of it 68 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: or do you still feel like maybe there's a place 69 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:12,800 Speaker 1: for you in the dugout somewhere. 70 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: I was still still trying to feel it out. 71 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 3: You know, I, as we mentioned, I have a young 72 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 3: family that I enjoy being around and enjoy spending time with. 73 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 3: So right now I'm happy with what we're doing, which 74 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 3: is spending some time with with with the Dodgers and 75 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 3: the front office and their and their players, but also. 76 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 2: Have some time for my family. So right now we're 77 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: in a good spot. 78 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: When Zach Grienky played for the Dodgers, he was very 79 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: famous in making trades and trying to pretend to be 80 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: Andrew Friedman or a guy in that position. When you played, 81 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: did you evaluate or gauge the temperature on players that 82 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: you were playing against, playing with? Do you feel like 83 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: you have that knack for evaluation. 84 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: To be honest? 85 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, At a young age, no, you're just your focus 86 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 3: on yourself and trying to figure out how to how 87 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 3: to improve and help your team win. But as you 88 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 3: age a little bit, you have a little bit of 89 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 3: different perspective. So yes, you definitely recognized talent on the 90 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 3: other side, good and bad. And yes you're always, you know, 91 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 3: making mental cues of guys that you hope at some 92 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 3: point you have the ability to play with the guys 93 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 3: that could possibly hit make. 94 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 2: You better, and I mean Andrew does. 95 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: Andrew and his team do a pretty good job of 96 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 3: finding the best guys out there. 97 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: I've been doing this too long. I remember the day 98 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: that Chase Utley arrived in the Dodger club house. It 99 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: was in Houston in twenty sixteen when the Dodgers acquired 100 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: you from the Phillies. You mentioned Andrew Friedman from where 101 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: it was when he traded for you to where he 102 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: has the Dodger organization. Now, what has he turned this into? 103 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 3: Well, I mean the current team last, I mean the 104 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: current team the last few years is pretty pretty talented. 105 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 3: But I think his vision early on was to one 106 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 3: identify what was going on in the organization and see 107 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 3: if there's areas to improve, and slowly but surely he's 108 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 3: done that year after year, and now they're in a 109 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,160 Speaker 3: pretty good spot with with the talent that they have, 110 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 3: with the young guys coming up, they're they're in position 111 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 3: to win for for a long time. I know they've 112 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 3: from a division standpoint, they've they've won a lot over 113 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 3: the past ten years. They've I think they've created a 114 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 3: culture here that has a winning vibe and these guys 115 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: are most of these guys are superstars, but that they 116 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 3: work like they're hungry rookies, which you don't see very 117 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 3: opt in. 118 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 2: But there's a reason why they're so successful. 119 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: There's so much focus on the payroll the last couple 120 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: of years. But does Andrew and his staff not get 121 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: enough credit for what you mentioned the culture and be 122 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: the infrastructure to support players to be their best. 123 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I mean, obviously talent helps to win games, 124 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 3: but you need a common theme within in the clubhouse, 125 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 3: at least in my opinion, to sustain that success over time. 126 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 2: And they've they've created that. They've they've created that a 127 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: while ago, and it's and it's lasting, and it's it's 128 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 2: good for it's good for these guys that. 129 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,559 Speaker 3: Are, you know, in the middle middle of their career 130 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 3: to recognize what they need to do. But it's also 131 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 3: great for the young guys coming up seeing how hard 132 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 3: these superstars work. I think, I truly believe that this 133 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 3: culture will last for a long time. 134 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: Do you appreciate these group of players because I remember 135 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: when you played, you were on a time schedule for 136 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: yourself to prepare. Every minute was accounted for. It similar 137 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,359 Speaker 1: to show Heyo Tani and you know, Mookie Bets and 138 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: these guys. Does it look familiar to you where these 139 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: guys are on such a schedule to prepare to play 140 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: every night, It does. 141 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 3: Look familiar, and it's it's it's great to see it. 142 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 3: I mean, these guys know what they need to do 143 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: and get ready. Everyone's got a slightly different program. At 144 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 3: the end of the day, They're all have a program 145 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 3: to get them ready for the seven five start. Yeah, 146 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 3: and that's what's what's most important. So again, I can't 147 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 3: reiterate enough, but like for these young players especially, it's 148 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 3: bering training that are seeing these guys work. It's it's 149 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 3: good that they can see guys with amazing work ethics. 150 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 3: I've seen the opposite where young prospects, young players see 151 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 3: you guys that don't have a work ethic like these 152 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: guys do, and they think that's the way to do it, 153 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 3: and it's not. 154 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: Chase Sutley is our guest. He's an LA guy. Long 155 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: beach u c LA eventually finished his career with the Dodgers. 156 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure you can appreciate this. Yesterday, pat Riley got 157 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: his statue and he talked about the business of the 158 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: NBA business of sports, where guys come and go. You 159 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: had such a lasting effect on your teammates in Philly, 160 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: but we got to see it here in LA with 161 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 1: Corey Seeger and key Y Hernandez, among others. Do you 162 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: still keep in touch with those guys? Do you do 163 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: they reach out to you for any sort of advice? 164 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I still keep in touch with them. 165 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously everyone's kind of spread out a little bit, 166 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 3: but yeah, usually, like we text back and forth when 167 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 3: there's when there's something something to talk about that that's important. 168 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: I appreciate that they used me for. 169 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: Advice, but these guys, these guys are now starting to 170 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 3: become grown men. 171 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:06,679 Speaker 2: But I'm always there for him, Chase. 172 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: Before I let you go, I've wanted to ask you this. 173 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: I told you I have bi weekly conversations with rich Hill, 174 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: and he somehow Someway still brings up the burn of 175 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: the way the twenty seventeen World Series went down. That 176 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: was your last Major League game, Game seven of the 177 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: seventeen World Series. A lot of people, me included, felt 178 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: like you guys were robbed of what should have been yours. 179 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: How have you come to peace with it? How have 180 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: you processed it over the years? 181 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it doesn't make you feel good about it. 182 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 3: I'm happy that everything has come out and the attention 183 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 3: was put on on that. I mean, it's I think 184 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 3: it's help for these guys now that we're a part 185 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 3: of that. It's helpful that they have a few world 186 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: series under their belt since then. I was able to 187 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 3: get one in Philadelphia. So had I not got that, 188 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 3: I think I probably would have a slightly different and 189 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 3: in But yeah, we didn't feel good about it. We 190 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 3: we prepared it, just. 191 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 2: We didn't prepare for the for what happened. 192 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: You don't seem to be a guy that just continues 193 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 1: to stew over things. Do you ever think about it 194 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: before a guy like me brings it up. 195 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,199 Speaker 3: No, I haven't thought about it for a while, to 196 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 3: be honest with you, it's kind of in the past. 197 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 3: Those guys, a lot of those guys, uh forever will 198 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 3: be part of that group and they'll live with it 199 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 3: for for the rest of their lives. 200 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: How special was that seventeen Dodgers team. 201 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 3: It was great because we had a mixture of young 202 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 3: and old, and it was a lot of energy, a 203 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 3: lot of fun, a lot of trying to figure figure 204 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 3: figure it out. There were some growing pains, but overall 205 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 3: we had a pretty pretty pretty solid team and to 206 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 3: get to that point knowing they had a little bit 207 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 3: extra help should make us feel good, although it doesn't necessarily. 208 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but Chase Suttley, it is a champion of 209 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: a person, champion of a player, and Miguel Rojas is 210 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: right there. So everybody has a story about Game seven 211 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: where they were watching it. You said you were in 212 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: London for three years. Where was Chase Utley watching the 213 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: World Series? Specifically Game seven, the ninth inning, the home 214 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: run and the incredible play Rojas and Smith made in 215 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 1: the ninth inning. 216 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 3: I was in la I was on my couch with 217 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 3: his few friends watching it and biting my nails and 218 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 3: sweating and nervous like pretty much everyone else was. But 219 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think there's been a better World Series. 220 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 3: Obviously it helps that your team wins, but overall, just 221 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 3: the different moments, the Dowerde moments in that game you 222 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 3: just don't see happen very often, especially in one particular game, 223 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 3: and it happens to be Game seven. So I mean, 224 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 3: these guys are preparing right now for that moment, so 225 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 3: hopefully they get to do it again. But yes, I 226 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 3: was on my couch sweat and bullets. 227 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: I feel more anxious watching the replays of the infield 228 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: in play with Rojas throwing out kind of philefa at home. 229 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: How difficult is that for a second basement in that 230 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: especially in that moment, a. 231 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 2: Tough play, it's I mean, it's a do or I play. 232 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: The game's over, it's not. 233 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 3: And I mean maybe he's an amazing defensive specialist out there, 234 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 3: so he can kind of do whatever he wants. And 235 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 3: it's his his instincts that made it happen. When you 236 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: first see the player, like ooh, he's backed up on 237 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 3: the ball, but he was able to pick it cleanly 238 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 3: and fire it. But that's what makes him so special 239 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 3: that he has the ability to put his body in. 240 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 2: Those positions and still make plays. 241 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: Chase, thank you for laying me tap into you. When 242 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: you were playing, you always had a time schedule, limited time, 243 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: and you have so much to offer the game. You 244 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: have such a high baseball IQ and the Dodgers are 245 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: lucky that you live in LA and you can be 246 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: part of this organization to help them grow and be 247 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: the best that they can be. And you know you'll 248 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: still come tiger claw over anybody's neck, including mine, So 249 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: don't get it twisted. He's on the off the Skuys 250 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: you ever meet. But I feel like I've softened. I've 251 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 1: humanized Chase Suttley here right now on the. 252 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 2: Field, slightly right now, in this moment. 253 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: Yes, do we hug or no hug? 254 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 2: Still we give, we give high five knuckles. Here we go. Okay, okay, David, 255 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 2: but thank you, thanks for having me on. Can't wait 256 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 2: to do it again. 257 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 1: Awesome. Chase Sutley might even come in studio or I 258 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: might even go to his house to do the show 259 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: one day. 260 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: You make sure he's going to my house. But we'll see, 261 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 2: we'll see.
