<v Speaker 2>six six nine, eight seven two five seventy we.

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Will hear from Eric Lower, who is very aware of the.

0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:24.399
<v Speaker 2>Situation at hand as we get closer to Monday's trade deadline,

0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 2>which is at noon Pacific time this coming Monday, so

0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 2>Lower understands what's going on. The Dodgers were very transparent

0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:38.520
<v Speaker 2>with him when he was acquired from the Blue Jays,

0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:41.040
<v Speaker 2>so we'll get to him. And also we'll get to

0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:44.800
<v Speaker 2>show Hail Tani, who's not in the starting lineup tonight

0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 2>as the knee was the left knee was a little sore,

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 2>and the Dodger trainers and Dave Roberts decided to give

0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 2>him a night off, thinking big picture, Otani will be

0:01:56.760 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 2>back in the starting lineup tomorrow dhing for the Dodgers.

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:05.240
<v Speaker 2>Tonight's DH hit a home run. That was ta Oscar Hernandez.

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 2>Ta Oscar Hernandez, who you know, was doing really well

0:02:09.320 --> 0:02:12.160
<v Speaker 2>going into the All Star break and came out of

0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 2>it a little bit of a slump, but started to

0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:18.840
<v Speaker 2>really get things going again, and he homers tonight and

0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:22.120
<v Speaker 2>Dalton Rushing hit a three run home run, so that's

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.680
<v Speaker 2>a good thing. And Mookie Betts was in a great

0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.280
<v Speaker 2>mood today. You saw it right away when he walked

0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 2>into the clubhouse. You could feel it, and MOOKI has

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:34.799
<v Speaker 2>to be reminded sometimes about how good he is, and

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 2>when the confidence is up, the performance goes up as well.

0:02:38.840 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 2>It's been a rough July for Mookie, obviously, and you

0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:46.080
<v Speaker 2>just hope that he can pick himself up going into

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:50.520
<v Speaker 2>the end of September and into October. Eight six, six nine,

0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:53.320
<v Speaker 2>eight seven two five seventy is the phone number. I

0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 2>felt like it's important to point out with Dalton Rushing.

0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:03.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, obviously, everybody focuses on the viral moments that

0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:06.359
<v Speaker 2>he has had, and albeit in the first half of

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.959
<v Speaker 2>the year, you haven't really seen any one of those

0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:13.239
<v Speaker 2>viral moments since the All Star break, and even going

0:03:13.320 --> 0:03:15.880
<v Speaker 2>into the All Star break, seems like he's done a

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:20.040
<v Speaker 2>better job of keeping his emotions in check. Look, part

0:03:20.080 --> 0:03:22.840
<v Speaker 2>of the reason that Dalton Rushing is good is because

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:25.519
<v Speaker 2>he plays with the chip on his shoulder and he's

0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:29.239
<v Speaker 2>looking to not just beat you, but embarrass you at times,

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:32.600
<v Speaker 2>and that has lent itself to him being one of

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 2>the best players in the Dodgers' minor leagues the last

0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:39.040
<v Speaker 2>few years, which earned them this opportunity to be on

0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:42.720
<v Speaker 2>the opening day roster and here he is now playing

0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:47.440
<v Speaker 2>seventy two games. Nobody thought Dalton Rushing would play seventy

0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 2>two games before the month of August, but with the

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.640
<v Speaker 2>entry to Will Smith the inflamed disc in his neck,

0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:58.720
<v Speaker 2>Dalton Rushing has played twenty more games now than Will

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:02.720
<v Speaker 2>Smith this season. Fifty two games before he got hurt,

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 2>Will Smith was hitting two forty nine with forty three hits,

0:04:06.040 --> 0:04:10.200
<v Speaker 2>six home runs, and twenty three RBIs. Dalton Rushing in

0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:13.960
<v Speaker 2>seventy two games is hitting two fifty nine with twelve

0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:17.719
<v Speaker 2>home runs and thirty six RBIs and an ops over

0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:22.080
<v Speaker 2>eight hundred. So my point is not many teams a

0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:26.000
<v Speaker 2>can lose a player the caliber of Will Smith and

0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 2>have a guy like Dalton Rushing ready to go number two.

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Everybody that tried to embarrass Dalton Rushing on social media

0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:42.840
<v Speaker 2>by replaying those emotional outbursts and his immaturity at times,

0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 2>how about giving him some shine now when he's letting

0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:49.720
<v Speaker 2>the bat do all the talking and he's doing a

0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:54.560
<v Speaker 2>great job catching Roki Sasaki the last three starts again,

0:04:55.560 --> 0:04:58.240
<v Speaker 2>twelve home runs, thirty six RBIs. He has a big

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.480
<v Speaker 2>home run tonight against Brian Wood, a three run home

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:04.680
<v Speaker 2>run to put this game away. Uh, at some point

0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:07.679
<v Speaker 2>you're going to have to acknowledge that he's doing really

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 2>well on the field and forget about what you see

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 2>what you I should say what you saw in the

0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:17.559
<v Speaker 2>dugout because he's maturing run in front of our eyes.

0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:20.320
<v Speaker 2>And I know there were a lot of questions if

0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Will Smith was not able to come back this year,

0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:27.240
<v Speaker 2>could the Dodgers trust Dalton Rushing to keep his emotions

0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:31.360
<v Speaker 2>in check when the emotions run higher than ever in

0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:34.640
<v Speaker 2>the postseason. But I feel like he is starting to

0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:38.600
<v Speaker 2>show some of that maturity to keep his emotions in check.

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:42.920
<v Speaker 2>And ta Oscar Hernandez, you know, speaking to the media,

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:46.240
<v Speaker 2>actually gave us a little hint that Will Smith is

0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:48.600
<v Speaker 2>doing more and more and is going to hit tomorrow.

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.880
<v Speaker 2>When Taoscar Hernandez said Smith was going to hit, that

0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:54.880
<v Speaker 2>means Smith is going to either hit in the cage

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:57.480
<v Speaker 2>or he's actually going to come out tomorrow and take

0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:01.160
<v Speaker 2>part in batting practice for the first time since going

0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:04.080
<v Speaker 2>on the IL. So that's a good sign as well.

0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:07.040
<v Speaker 2>But can we just give Dalton Rushing some credit here.

0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:10.080
<v Speaker 2>He's done a hell of a job and he's done

0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:13.559
<v Speaker 2>a much better job of maturing as he has gotten

0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:17.840
<v Speaker 2>more playing time. Eight six seven, two five seventy is

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:21.400
<v Speaker 2>the phone number. Dodgers beat the Mariners six to two tonight.

0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:25.039
<v Speaker 2>Let's go out to Hollywood. Casey, you're on Dodger Talk.

0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 2>Lead us off.

0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:28.200
<v Speaker 4>Hey, David, Hell, are we doing here?

0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing great right now.

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.600
<v Speaker 4>I guess we'll just perfect perfect Well, let's just just

0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:36.680
<v Speaker 4>jump off to a Dalton rushing, just keep this going.

0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:39.920
<v Speaker 4>First off, I just want to say, the guy's doing fantastic,

0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:44.080
<v Speaker 4>having solid at bats. And I got to say when

0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.760
<v Speaker 4>he was having those outbursts earlier in the year, I

0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:49.600
<v Speaker 4>loved it, man. I love my players having passion. I

0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:52.880
<v Speaker 4>like him keeping that fire alive, especially during the Giant

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.920
<v Speaker 4>Series when he had that moment at a home plate,

0:06:57.279 --> 0:06:59.320
<v Speaker 4>you know, and then they threw a pitch at him,

0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:03.120
<v Speaker 4>and where they throw it at it was just throw

0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:04.920
<v Speaker 4>it at one of our guys and then the sliding

0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:08.200
<v Speaker 4>on that. That's baseball. There's a lot of fun. He's

0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:11.040
<v Speaker 4>doing good and I'm confident with him behind the plate,

0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:14.240
<v Speaker 4>hoping Will Smith can come back. But if he doesn't,

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:18.240
<v Speaker 4>are we going to trade for a catcher? And that's

0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:18.960
<v Speaker 4>what I want to talk to you.

0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:22.440
<v Speaker 2>About Well, it doesn't sound like the Dodgers are in

0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:26.280
<v Speaker 2>need of a big league veteran backup catcher right now

0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 2>because Smith is coming back. I will say this, if

0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:33.920
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers do feel like, uh, there's not a roster

0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:38.240
<v Speaker 2>spot to get call more playing time with Keiky Hernandez back,

0:07:38.440 --> 0:07:41.400
<v Speaker 2>I can envision the Dodgers going out and getting a

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:45.320
<v Speaker 2>veteran big league catcher as insurance, like a Travis Darnault

0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:48.880
<v Speaker 2>from the Angels, and carry three catchers. I could see that.

0:07:49.920 --> 0:07:53.080
<v Speaker 2>But right now it looks like things are trending in

0:07:53.160 --> 0:07:56.640
<v Speaker 2>the right direction for Will Smith. Thanks for the phone call, Casey,

0:07:56.760 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 2>appreciate it. Eight sixty six nine to eighty seven seventy.

0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:04.280
<v Speaker 2>Let's go out to Art, who is at the ballpark tonight. Hi, Art,

0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 2>you're on Dodger Talk.

0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:10.480
<v Speaker 5>Hey, David. So, I just saw this online and I

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:15.680
<v Speaker 5>saw that the USA Today writer Bob Nightingale wrote that

0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:20.760
<v Speaker 5>Karen Scoople's first choice at free agency is Los Angeles.

0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:26.680
<v Speaker 5>So how can I be surprised at something like that? Yeah,

0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:30.920
<v Speaker 5>you shouldn't be, now, So, like, can you just imagine

0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 5>what that would be like with all the guys going

0:08:34.000 --> 0:08:37.360
<v Speaker 5>at it and just fighting fighting for fighting for a

0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 5>spot in a rotation. That that would be awesome. I mean,

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:43.079
<v Speaker 5>like the rest of baseball and everybody would you know,

0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 5>definitely come hard and then maybe the whole nation would

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.599
<v Speaker 5>be against Dodger Nation. But you know, you know what

0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:52.920
<v Speaker 5>I'm saying, Like that, that would just be that'd just

0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 5>be awesome to see.

0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:58.840
<v Speaker 2>I would love that on the Dodgers staff because he's

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:01.760
<v Speaker 2>a two time sign Award winner and arguably one of

0:09:01.800 --> 0:09:06.040
<v Speaker 2>the best left handers or arguably the best left hander,

0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:09.959
<v Speaker 2>the best pitcher in baseball. But the other part of

0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:13.480
<v Speaker 2>the equation is he doesn't just have talent, he has

0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:16.080
<v Speaker 2>the work ethic and that kind of sets the tone

0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:17.920
<v Speaker 2>for the rest of the staff. And he would fit

0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:21.760
<v Speaker 2>in perfectly with Otani and Yamamoto on the staff as

0:09:21.840 --> 0:09:25.640
<v Speaker 2>far as work ethic goes Robleski those guys. To have

0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:28.719
<v Speaker 2>a guy like Schoobole in the weight room, in the

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:30.920
<v Speaker 2>bullpen sessions, all that stuff.

0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:32.199
<v Speaker 1>He would be a great fit.

0:09:32.600 --> 0:09:35.559
<v Speaker 2>And that's part of the reason why it makes a

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.520
<v Speaker 2>lot more sense for the Dodgers to sign Schoolble at

0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:41.079
<v Speaker 2>the end of the season going into next year, depending

0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:44.120
<v Speaker 2>on where they're at and what the new CBA looks

0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:47.160
<v Speaker 2>like more than treating for him at this point in time.

0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 2>So I continue to hear about the Tampa Bay Rays

0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:53.880
<v Speaker 2>going to be aggressive at the trade deadline and going

0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:57.360
<v Speaker 2>to be aggressive to try to acquire Schooble. So we'll

0:09:57.360 --> 0:09:59.720
<v Speaker 2>see where it plays out. Let's go out to Sean

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:02.560
<v Speaker 2>in Las Vegas. Sean, you're on Dodger Talk.

0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:03.120
<v Speaker 1>How you doing?

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:04.360
<v Speaker 5>Uh?

0:10:04.480 --> 0:10:05.800
<v Speaker 4>If Will Smith is gonna be back?

0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:07.760
<v Speaker 6>Obviously they're not in a big need for a catcher,

0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:09.920
<v Speaker 6>But if they were gonna get a third guy, how

0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:11.079
<v Speaker 6>about Ben Rortvett.

0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:16.120
<v Speaker 2>I hate to use this phrase, but that's the laziest

0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:19.679
<v Speaker 2>idea I have ever heard. There are other catchers out

0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:22.520
<v Speaker 2>there not named Ben Rohtfitt that can do a pretty

0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:23.000
<v Speaker 2>good job.

0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:26.880
<v Speaker 6>Wasn't Ben a real good fit with the pitching staff

0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:27.440
<v Speaker 6>last year?

0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 1>He was really good with really good starters. I thought

0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:32.679
<v Speaker 1>he was good. Yes he was.

0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.920
<v Speaker 2>But I'm just saying that you bring in Ben Rohtfitt,

0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:38.600
<v Speaker 2>how is that going to make Rushing feel We're back

0:10:38.640 --> 0:10:41.360
<v Speaker 2>in the same quagmire as last year, where you know,

0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:44.599
<v Speaker 2>Rushing was squeezed out. So I just don't think that

0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.720
<v Speaker 2>would be the right message to send. A Dalton rushing

0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:52.199
<v Speaker 2>to acquire Ben Rohtvett. All right, thank you for the

0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.319
<v Speaker 2>phone call. I don't know what else to say to that.

0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:57.679
<v Speaker 2>Eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy is

0:10:57.760 --> 0:11:02.000
<v Speaker 2>the phone number Dodger talk going until eleven thirty tonight.

0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:06.959
<v Speaker 2>I continue to believe the Dodgers have interest in the

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Mets right hander Clay Holmes, who would be a really

0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:13.679
<v Speaker 2>good fit for the Dodgers because he can be a

0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:16.560
<v Speaker 2>guy that can come out of the bullpen in the postseason,

0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:19.960
<v Speaker 2>can be a starter for the rest of the regular season,

0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 2>and also if you need one in the postseason, he

0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:25.800
<v Speaker 2>can do that for you as well. But I just

0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 2>think back to what Andrew Friedman and Brandon Gomes talked

0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:32.880
<v Speaker 2>about going into each of the last two postseasons. We're

0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:37.000
<v Speaker 2>going to go with the thirteen best pitchers for the staff,

0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:40.719
<v Speaker 2>not putting them in a box of a starter or

0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:41.360
<v Speaker 2>a reliever.

0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:43.199
<v Speaker 1>You saw the Dodgers Yu.

0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:48.360
<v Speaker 2>Shehan, Glass Now Yamamoto, Roki Sasaki, and Roles that we

0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:52.000
<v Speaker 2>haven't seen him in And that's why I believe Clay

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:56.120
<v Speaker 2>Holmes would be a great fit for the thirteen best

0:11:56.280 --> 0:12:00.559
<v Speaker 2>pitchers for an October staff. A pretty good in his

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.520
<v Speaker 2>day in October is going to get honored rightfully. So

0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:07.840
<v Speaker 2>our guy Oral Herschheiser is being honored by the Hollywood

0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:11.640

<v Speaker 2>you're going to see the star of the bulldog Oral Hersheizer.

<v Speaker 2>So put that in your notepads and your calendars. Be

<v Speaker 2>we come back, you'll hear from Eric Louer had him

<v Speaker 2>have two pairs of tickets to give away to this

0:14:22.640 --> 0:14:27.080
<v Speaker 2>Sunday's Dodgers Red Sox game, so you gotta wow me

0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:31.280
<v Speaker 2>to get those tickets. And so far I have been underwhelmed.

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:34.760
<v Speaker 2>Eight sixty six nine eighty seven two five seventy is

0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:38.520
<v Speaker 2>the phone number. Eric Lower poured out his heart to

0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:41.960
<v Speaker 2>us before the game today, had a great time talking

0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:46.720
<v Speaker 2>to lour And if you listened to the interview before

0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.920
<v Speaker 2>the game, if you can tell me the fun fact

0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:53.960
<v Speaker 2>that Eric Lower served to us, I will give you

0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:56.800
<v Speaker 2>a pair of those tickets for Sunday night's game. If

0:14:56.840 --> 0:15:00.520
<v Speaker 2>you can tell me the fun fact about Eric that

0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:03.800
<v Speaker 2>we had no clue about, I will give you those

0:15:03.960 --> 0:15:07.040
<v Speaker 2>pair tickets for Sunday at eight six six nine eight

0:15:07.160 --> 0:15:10.720
<v Speaker 2>seven two five seventy. But we got to Eric Lower

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:15.640
<v Speaker 2>being very candid after the game last night, very aware

0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.120
<v Speaker 2>of the fact that when he was acquired by the

0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:22.040
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers that this could be a short term thing until

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.400
<v Speaker 2>Snell and Glass now and Otani got healthy.

0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, here we are Lower.

0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.720
<v Speaker 2>Nine starts in and the Dodgers are nine to zero

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:33.160
<v Speaker 2>when Eric Lower is on the mound.

0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Eight starts.

0:15:34.720 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 2>One was with an opener, but for all intentsive purposes,

0:15:39.000 --> 0:15:42.520
<v Speaker 2>basically nine starts because he pitched six perfect innings after

0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:47.760
<v Speaker 2>the opener in Minnesota. So Lower's aware that the trade

0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:50.720
<v Speaker 2>deadline is on Monday, and his name has been put

0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:54.440
<v Speaker 2>out there publicly by the Athletic that the Dodgers are

0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:59.680
<v Speaker 2>considering flipping Lour to help bolster their minor league system

0:15:59.840 --> 0:16:03.640
<v Speaker 2>because it's a little thin, very little international spending money,

0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:07.320
<v Speaker 2>low draft picks, giving up draft picks, being dropped down

0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:10.880
<v Speaker 2>in the draft in the amateur draft because of being

0:16:11.040 --> 0:16:14.160
<v Speaker 2>so high in the luxury tax threshold. So it makes

0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:18.360
<v Speaker 2>sense from a baseball operation standpoint, and Lower understands that,

0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 2>but express to us how much he wants to stay

0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:22.840
<v Speaker 2>in LA.

0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:25.800
<v Speaker 1>You probably don't even know what I do, right, You

0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:26.880
<v Speaker 1>have no idea what I do.

0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:29.360
<v Speaker 8>I know you talking to a microphone.

0:16:28.960 --> 0:16:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Exactly, But I host the postgame show and take calls

0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:35.240
<v Speaker 2>from fans. Yeah, okay, big revelation, Right, you told me

0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 2>something about yourself.

0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:38.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you what I do.

0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:42.160
<v Speaker 2>And fans, Dodger fans, in this short period of time,

0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:46.120
<v Speaker 2>have expressed to me the emotional attachment they have to

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.360
<v Speaker 2>Eric Lower and don't want you to go anywhere.

0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:49.960
<v Speaker 6>I don't want to go anywhere.

0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:50.840
<v Speaker 8>I know, I know.

0:16:51.320 --> 0:16:54.360
<v Speaker 2>But what you said after the game last night, not

0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:57.440
<v Speaker 2>a lot of guys would admit just how what front

0:16:57.480 --> 0:17:01.040
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers were with them. Where you today As we

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.560
<v Speaker 2>get closer to Monday, how are you handling all that.

0:17:05.800 --> 0:17:09.040
<v Speaker 8>I'm trying to stay off social media as much as

0:17:09.080 --> 0:17:11.600
<v Speaker 8>possible because I know my wife's on top of that

0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:14.360
<v Speaker 8>and she's telling me everything that's being said and all

0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:19.000
<v Speaker 8>the thoughts and predictions and whatnot out there. And I mean,

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.960
<v Speaker 8>I knew coming in, like I said, it was like

0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:25.240
<v Speaker 8>I wasn't doing great to beget in the year, and

0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:27.480
<v Speaker 8>I wasn't in a great spot when I came over here.

0:17:27.760 --> 0:17:32.440
<v Speaker 8>So I think if I wasn't able to accept that,

0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:35.520
<v Speaker 8>you know, this might be the situation, they might you know,

0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:37.680
<v Speaker 8>be testing me out see something that they think that

0:17:37.760 --> 0:17:42.080
<v Speaker 8>they can help me with, and they definitely have to

0:17:42.240 --> 0:17:43.840
<v Speaker 8>just get me back to where I should be. And

0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:47.280
<v Speaker 8>you know, my goal was to come in and you know,

0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:49.600
<v Speaker 8>make the decision really hard for him, if that was

0:17:49.680 --> 0:17:51.600
<v Speaker 8>their plan all along, it was, it was to make

0:17:51.680 --> 0:17:54.800
<v Speaker 8>the decision really hard and being like, are we actually

0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:56.000
<v Speaker 8>willing to give up this guy?

0:17:56.400 --> 0:17:56.640
<v Speaker 9>Yeah?

0:17:56.720 --> 0:17:59.040
<v Speaker 8>And I think I've done a pretty decent job of

0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:03.480
<v Speaker 8>that so far. And you know, I'm I've gotten pretty

0:18:03.520 --> 0:18:06.800
<v Speaker 8>close with the entire team, the staff, like everybody around here.

0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:08.440
<v Speaker 6>So I'm I'm.

0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:15.240
<v Speaker 8>More than more than hoping that I don't get traded.

0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:15.720
<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Same here.

0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:19.280
<v Speaker 2>The radio guy likes you a lot too, So I

0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:23.240
<v Speaker 2>hope in Chicago on Tuesday you're still wearing Dodger blue.

0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:25.959
<v Speaker 1>But obviously there's a lot of moving parts.

0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:30.560
<v Speaker 2>And like I said, everybody has grown an emotional attachment

0:18:30.640 --> 0:18:33.840
<v Speaker 2>to Eric Lawer. So thank you, and we'll see you.

0:18:34.280 --> 0:18:36.200
<v Speaker 2>I'll see you tomorrow at least. Right, we'll be where

0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:36.919
<v Speaker 2>our feet are, I.

0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:38.960
<v Speaker 8>Think so, I hope so at least, But you know,

0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:41.159
<v Speaker 8>I appreciate it all right.

0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:44.000
<v Speaker 2>That was part of our conversation with Eric Lower, and

0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:47.280
<v Speaker 2>he expressed how much he has loved being with the Dodgers,

0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:50.720
<v Speaker 2>and he actually used the phrase that the Dodgers have

0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:54.400
<v Speaker 2>spoken the language of Lower to bring the best out

0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:57.440
<v Speaker 2>of him. And it seems like communication is a big

0:18:57.600 --> 0:19:00.360
<v Speaker 2>part for him having a lot of success. And Mark

0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Pryor knew Lower when he was just a young buck

0:19:03.240 --> 0:19:06.560
<v Speaker 2>in San Diego. Both guys were young bucks. Now Pryor's

0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:09.600
<v Speaker 2>got a lot of grand that beard and Lower, I mean,

0:19:09.680 --> 0:19:13.240
<v Speaker 2>obviously he's going strong. So uh, it's been a great fit.

0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:17.040
<v Speaker 2>The Dodgers have gotten more out of Lower than anybody expected.

0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:19.840
<v Speaker 2>I feel like to a certain extent. Even Lower shared

0:19:19.920 --> 0:19:24.080
<v Speaker 2>that with us as well. But it's a numbers game,

0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:28.040
<v Speaker 2>and right now the Dodgers are getting closer to being full,

0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:31.439
<v Speaker 2>not only as a team, but as a pitching staff.

0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.800
<v Speaker 2>Eight six six nine eight seven two five seventy is

0:19:34.880 --> 0:19:37.359
<v Speaker 2>the phone number, and to hear the full conversation with

0:19:37.560 --> 0:19:41.040
<v Speaker 2>Eric Lower, you can find that on the iHeartRadio app.

0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's go out to Indio. Matt, You're on Dodger Talk.

0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:45.000
<v Speaker 1>How you doing?

0:19:45.080 --> 0:19:45.199
<v Speaker 3>Matt?

0:19:45.400 --> 0:19:47.480
<v Speaker 1>Was that really awkward between me and Lower? Do you

0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:49.000
<v Speaker 1>feel like I handled that? Okay?

0:19:51.640 --> 0:19:54.560
<v Speaker 6>Nah, you had a nice, good personal moment there, sharing

0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:57.159
<v Speaker 6>a bit about yourself what you do? I thought that

0:19:57.320 --> 0:19:57.600
<v Speaker 6>was good.

0:19:58.480 --> 0:20:00.280
<v Speaker 2>I've only been around the guy for two mo months.

0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:02.960
<v Speaker 2>He had no idea that I host this show until

0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:04.239
<v Speaker 2>eleven thirty every night.

0:20:06.080 --> 0:20:07.000
<v Speaker 6>How is that possible?

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 10>Man?

0:20:07.600 --> 0:20:08.400
<v Speaker 6>You do a good job.

0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:13.040
<v Speaker 2>Hey man, I guess I guess they didn't have Blue

0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:15.400
<v Speaker 2>Jay's Talk when Lower was playing over there.

0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:19.840
<v Speaker 6>Nah, bro, we're we gotta we do it better over here.

0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Let me will with you.

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:24.280
<v Speaker 2>Out there, Matt. You sound like you're really sleepy out

0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:26.520
<v Speaker 2>there in Indio. That's an exciting town.

0:20:26.680 --> 0:20:29.320
<v Speaker 6>Now I'm building. Oh no, I'm building man.

0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:31.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, what are you building out there?

0:20:37.200 --> 0:20:39.639
<v Speaker 6>I'm using name where you know?

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:41.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, got you?

0:20:41.720 --> 0:20:45.200
<v Speaker 2>I understand all right now that we've gotten that out

0:20:45.200 --> 0:20:46.560
<v Speaker 2>of the way, Matt, what do you have for me

0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:47.800
<v Speaker 2>with Dodger Baseball?

0:20:49.480 --> 0:20:53.000
<v Speaker 6>I got something on Emmett, something on Dalton, and something

0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:56.880
<v Speaker 6>on Lower. So let me shoot you with uh Emmett first.

0:20:58.119 --> 0:21:02.639
<v Speaker 6>And I don't nessary want this to happen, but I

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:06.119
<v Speaker 6>could see it that him being a Dustin May like

0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:09.520
<v Speaker 6>last year. And I know the big difference is Dustin

0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:13.399
<v Speaker 6>May wanted to stay a starter and she has already

0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:16.240
<v Speaker 6>shown that he could, uh, he can perform well in

0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:19.240
<v Speaker 6>the postseason coming out of a bullpen. So that's a

0:21:19.320 --> 0:21:23.800
<v Speaker 6>big key difference there. Next Ruk, So.

0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:26.520
<v Speaker 1>You're saying, keep she hand, but put him in the bullpen.

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:29.879
<v Speaker 6>Oh, I mean that's for sure. It's kind of like

0:21:29.920 --> 0:21:32.800
<v Speaker 6>a given. If he can throw ninety eight coming out

0:21:32.840 --> 0:21:35.960
<v Speaker 6>of the bullpen like last year, he's gonna do well

0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:36.280
<v Speaker 6>for us.

0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:38.840
<v Speaker 1>He has the potential, no doubt.

0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:39.120
<v Speaker 9>Matt.

0:21:39.240 --> 0:21:40.600
<v Speaker 1>What do you got to say about rushing?

0:21:42.119 --> 0:21:45.879
<v Speaker 6>Rushing? I gotta start with the good and let me

0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:47.800
<v Speaker 6>call it. Let me just call it right here first,

0:21:47.960 --> 0:21:54.399
<v Speaker 6>And I see the future stoic version of Will Smith.

0:21:55.280 --> 0:21:57.919
<v Speaker 6>You know what I mean. I do see a future

0:21:58.000 --> 0:21:58.840
<v Speaker 6>stowage version.

0:21:59.280 --> 0:22:01.920
<v Speaker 2>Do you think Alton Rushing is gonna turn into Will

0:22:01.960 --> 0:22:03.120
<v Speaker 2>Smith's personality?

0:22:05.240 --> 0:22:09.359
<v Speaker 6>Maybe not that level of stoic stoicism whatever, but I

0:22:09.400 --> 0:22:12.000
<v Speaker 6>can see him being I can I can see it.

0:22:12.000 --> 0:22:14.960
<v Speaker 6>And you're you're hearing the first here. And just to

0:22:15.080 --> 0:22:20.200
<v Speaker 6>note on the little childish antics, I mean, I think

0:22:20.240 --> 0:22:23.240
<v Speaker 6>they're all kind of justified. And let me just throw

0:22:23.320 --> 0:22:26.920
<v Speaker 6>this cool little note out to you. As I was

0:22:27.000 --> 0:22:31.080
<v Speaker 6>out in Philly for that three game set, I caught

0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:35.920
<v Speaker 6>a game over there in which she him was he started,

0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:38.040
<v Speaker 6>and I was in the I was in the bullpen

0:22:38.119 --> 0:22:41.560
<v Speaker 6>out over there, you know, coaching, coaching the guy up

0:22:41.800 --> 0:22:47.040
<v Speaker 6>and uh. When Dalton came up to close out the

0:22:47.680 --> 0:22:51.000
<v Speaker 6>bullpen session, I told him, Hey, man, no no byes today.

0:22:51.080 --> 0:22:53.000
<v Speaker 6>I was yelling at him, no byes today.

0:22:55.200 --> 0:22:57.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure he took that to heart. Matt.

0:22:58.480 --> 0:23:03.480
<v Speaker 2>Matt, I like I like style. You really cool yourself out.

0:23:03.600 --> 0:23:07.040
<v Speaker 2>You're a great guy for a cure to insomnia. So

0:23:07.119 --> 0:23:10.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna give you a pair of tickets to Sunday's

<v Speaker 2>six nine seven two five seventy is the phone number. Yeah,

0:25:14.320 --> 0:25:17.320
<v Speaker 2>how about that? Eric Lower was in the big leagues

0:25:17.320 --> 0:25:21.040
<v Speaker 2>when pitchers still hit pictures could rake back in the day.

0:25:21.440 --> 0:25:24.840
<v Speaker 2>Clayton Krushaw hit a big home run on opening Day

0:25:24.920 --> 0:25:28.880
<v Speaker 2>of twenty thirteen against the San Francisco Giants, and Eric

0:25:29.040 --> 0:25:33.080
<v Speaker 2>Lower has the distinction to hit the last home run

0:25:33.400 --> 0:25:37.200
<v Speaker 2>in Brewer's history as a pitcher off of Chris Paddock.

0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:41.040

<v Speaker 1>You're on Dodger Talk. How you doing, Bob.

0:25:43.920 --> 0:25:47.960
<v Speaker 11>I'm doing great, Dave, Hey, I appreciate the call. Two

0:25:48.080 --> 0:25:51.359
<v Speaker 11>things I need before the trade deadline, Dave, Actually, one

0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:52.600
<v Speaker 11>thing before the trade deadline.

0:25:52.640 --> 0:25:53.840
<v Speaker 6>One thing for the end of the season.

0:25:54.320 --> 0:25:56.800
<v Speaker 11>Number One, I think it would be great if we

0:25:56.880 --> 0:26:00.320
<v Speaker 11>got a Roki Sasaki tops card this year with Mickey

0:26:00.400 --> 0:26:03.240
<v Speaker 11>Hatcher's big glove. I think that would be perfect for Roki.

0:26:03.280 --> 0:26:05.440
<v Speaker 11>It'd be a good inside joke right there on a card.

0:26:06.480 --> 0:26:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Yes, uh faby and our DAYA tweet out that photo, Bob,

0:26:10.080 --> 0:26:11.359
<v Speaker 2>no doubt that would be great.

0:26:12.640 --> 0:26:15.440
<v Speaker 11>And number two, we need a Vic the Brick haiku

0:26:15.640 --> 0:26:18.640
<v Speaker 11>about the trade deadline. We need a Dodgers haiku from

0:26:18.720 --> 0:26:20.840
<v Speaker 11>Vic the Brick doing the trade deadline.

0:26:20.920 --> 0:26:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Do they really need that?

0:26:26.359 --> 0:26:27.200
<v Speaker 6>You tell me, Dave?

0:26:27.240 --> 0:26:27.880
<v Speaker 11>Do we need one?

0:26:28.520 --> 0:26:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Do we do we need one? Bob? I gotta run. Jose.

0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Motive is on hold. All right, Let's check it with Jose.

0:26:35.280 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 3>It's time to go around the horn with Jose Mota.

0:26:40.040 --> 0:26:42.600
<v Speaker 2>Save me, Jose. It's been a wild night of Dodger

0:26:42.680 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 2>talk phone calls tonight. Dalton Rushing. I feel like everybody

0:26:48.400 --> 0:26:52.159
<v Speaker 2>was talking about, you know, the outbursts, the emotions the

0:26:52.240 --> 0:26:55.520
<v Speaker 2>first half of the season, but it feels like everybody's

0:26:55.600 --> 0:26:58.920
<v Speaker 2>ignoring what matters the most production behind the plate and

0:26:59.080 --> 0:27:01.280
<v Speaker 2>him actually growing on the job.

0:27:01.960 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 9>He has to grow on the job. This guy has

0:27:04.400 --> 0:27:08.360
<v Speaker 9>really taken to, you know, a high responsibility, high profile job,

0:27:08.920 --> 0:27:13.159
<v Speaker 9>replacing an all star catcher and Will Smith and you know,

0:27:13.480 --> 0:27:15.639
<v Speaker 9>growing with the punches and growing with the you know,

0:27:15.680 --> 0:27:18.440
<v Speaker 9>the mistakes he's made, admitting to the fact that needed

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:20.600
<v Speaker 9>to mature. And I think we really hit the wall

0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.040
<v Speaker 9>was Johio Tani. That's it. I was like, the biggest

0:27:23.040 --> 0:27:24.480
<v Speaker 9>wake up call you're going to call out with show

0:27:24.520 --> 0:27:27.359
<v Speaker 9>how you got to really do something to correct it.

0:27:28.000 --> 0:27:30.320
<v Speaker 9>And he's done it. He admitted it. He's moved on.

0:27:30.480 --> 0:27:32.080
<v Speaker 9>But let me tell you somethingday now, we were talking

0:27:32.080 --> 0:27:36.080
<v Speaker 9>about catchers and acquisitions. You know, there's teams that are

0:27:36.680 --> 0:27:39.639
<v Speaker 9>interested in doesn't rushing. Are you surprised by that? I'm not.

0:27:40.240 --> 0:27:42.680
<v Speaker 9>I mean, for all that we've seen and all the

0:27:42.720 --> 0:27:44.879
<v Speaker 9>negative stuff you've seen the you know, some people exposed

0:27:44.920 --> 0:27:48.160
<v Speaker 9>on social media, this guy is doing a very fine job.

0:27:48.280 --> 0:27:50.600
<v Speaker 9>He's got some things to improve on. The pass balls

0:27:50.600 --> 0:27:52.280
<v Speaker 9>are in the sure right now. He's got seven of them.

0:27:52.800 --> 0:27:54.920
<v Speaker 9>But when he considered the things he's had to face,

0:27:55.600 --> 0:27:59.639
<v Speaker 9>the pitchers he's handling, the bullpeny's handling. And one thing

0:27:59.680 --> 0:28:02.520
<v Speaker 9>that we all missed yesterday with a visit to the

0:28:02.600 --> 0:28:07.320
<v Speaker 9>mound with Eric Lauer, with cal Rally hitting and him

0:28:07.440 --> 0:28:09.240
<v Speaker 9>taking the time to go, wait a minute, let's go

0:28:09.359 --> 0:28:12.000
<v Speaker 9>to a different plan. So all those things that you

0:28:12.160 --> 0:28:16.359
<v Speaker 9>see and that perhaps don't capture anybody's eye or cannot

0:28:16.359 --> 0:28:18.720
<v Speaker 9>be written down, matter a whole lot to doubt and

0:28:18.800 --> 0:28:20.560
<v Speaker 9>Russia because his last year he's been put to the

0:28:20.640 --> 0:28:22.879
<v Speaker 9>test by Dave Roberts, and one needs to to be

0:28:22.960 --> 0:28:25.359
<v Speaker 9>a better catcher, be a better kid, and be a

0:28:25.400 --> 0:28:27.879
<v Speaker 9>better teammate. And so far, you know what, there's the

0:28:27.960 --> 0:28:30.360
<v Speaker 9>fact that he's attracting attention around the league because he's

0:28:30.400 --> 0:28:31.200
<v Speaker 9>doing a very good job.

0:28:32.160 --> 0:28:34.359
<v Speaker 1>He's not going anywhere, I can guarante not that.

0:28:34.680 --> 0:28:36.960
<v Speaker 9>No, he's not going anywhere, But I'm saying that's how

0:28:37.119 --> 0:28:39.040
<v Speaker 9>high profile he's created for himself right now.

0:28:39.800 --> 0:28:41.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well, he told me in New York he's lived

0:28:41.800 --> 0:28:44.320
<v Speaker 2>through the trade deadline and his name being out there

0:28:44.360 --> 0:28:46.840
<v Speaker 2>for the last two years, so he knows all about that.

0:28:48.120 --> 0:28:51.280
<v Speaker 2>And also another part of all this is he seems

0:28:51.400 --> 0:28:54.440
<v Speaker 2>to bring out the best in Roki Sasaki. He knows

0:28:54.560 --> 0:28:58.800
<v Speaker 2>how to push Roki Sasaki to keep him engaged and

0:28:58.960 --> 0:29:00.400
<v Speaker 2>keep him aggressive.

0:29:00.520 --> 0:29:04.080
<v Speaker 9>Correct, And there's a big trust level there with those

0:29:04.120 --> 0:29:08.080
<v Speaker 9>two communication openness to be inflexible. We're Roki. You got

0:29:08.160 --> 0:29:10.400
<v Speaker 9>to be very careful how you threat those waters because

0:29:10.520 --> 0:29:13.720
<v Speaker 9>he knows and where to push when not to, and

0:29:13.840 --> 0:29:15.560
<v Speaker 9>he understands how to get to him. So there's so

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:17.640
<v Speaker 9>many factors, so many ways in which a catch you

0:29:17.680 --> 0:29:20.240
<v Speaker 9>can help, and one of them sometimes just staying off

0:29:20.280 --> 0:29:22.560
<v Speaker 9>of him and just say I trust you so much.

0:29:22.600 --> 0:29:24.240
<v Speaker 9>And perhaps this calls for me to make a visit

0:29:24.280 --> 0:29:25.520
<v Speaker 9>to the mountain, I'm not gonna do it because I

0:29:25.600 --> 0:29:28.000
<v Speaker 9>knew that when I put the fingers down or make

0:29:28.120 --> 0:29:30.040
<v Speaker 9>that call in the pitch, Colm, you're gonna trust it.

0:29:30.080 --> 0:29:31.680
<v Speaker 9>What I put down is what we talked about, and

0:29:31.760 --> 0:29:35.440
<v Speaker 9>you will be flexible enough Sasaki to understand that if

0:29:35.480 --> 0:29:39.280
<v Speaker 9>I do it and I emphatically put something down or

0:29:39.360 --> 0:29:41.440
<v Speaker 9>put that message down for you to listen to that pitch,

0:29:41.960 --> 0:29:43.400
<v Speaker 9>I trust in you, and I'm going to block it

0:29:43.440 --> 0:29:44.760
<v Speaker 9>for you and get the job done. So yeah, it

0:29:44.800 --> 0:29:46.600
<v Speaker 9>goes both ways. So I'm glad it's working out nice

0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:47.080
<v Speaker 9>for them both.

0:29:47.760 --> 0:29:49.920
<v Speaker 2>What do you make of the fact that Roki, I know,

0:29:50.040 --> 0:29:53.680
<v Speaker 2>everybody always focuses on whenever he throws one hundred miles

0:29:53.680 --> 0:29:57.160
<v Speaker 2>an hour, but the trend for Roki this year has

0:29:57.280 --> 0:29:59.960
<v Speaker 2>been to throw that split finger more and more.

0:30:00.680 --> 0:30:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Coming into the game tonight.

0:30:02.440 --> 0:30:05.280
<v Speaker 2>This month, he's thrown it thirty eight percent of the time,

0:30:05.360 --> 0:30:08.240
<v Speaker 2>and it was thrown that many times tonight about thirty

0:30:08.320 --> 0:30:09.360
<v Speaker 2>nine percent of the time.

0:30:10.120 --> 0:30:13.640
<v Speaker 9>That's just a guy paying attention to reaction from the hitters,

0:30:13.720 --> 0:30:16.000
<v Speaker 9>a guy having ninety nine one hundred in his pocket,

0:30:16.680 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 9>watching the separation from between those pitches and also letting

0:30:19.680 --> 0:30:22.840
<v Speaker 9>it fly, I mean away with that fork ball. That

0:30:23.000 --> 0:30:25.040
<v Speaker 9>was just too much of a floating pitch. He still

0:30:25.080 --> 0:30:27.080
<v Speaker 9>has it somewhere out there when he needs it, but

0:30:27.640 --> 0:30:29.840
<v Speaker 9>it's a splitter, a two splitter. And what better example

0:30:29.880 --> 0:30:33.560
<v Speaker 9>the fall than Shohil Tani and mostly Yoshinobo Yama Malta

0:30:33.600 --> 0:30:35.720
<v Speaker 9>and the way they throw it where they throw it,

0:30:36.320 --> 0:30:39.400
<v Speaker 9>you know, and learning that even though that pitch perhaps

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:41.800
<v Speaker 9>is not something that he had back in Japan, he

0:30:41.840 --> 0:30:44.720
<v Speaker 9>had more to forkball, but complimented with a slider. But

0:30:44.840 --> 0:30:47.400
<v Speaker 9>the splitter velocity. We saw a ninety three and a

0:30:47.480 --> 0:30:50.160
<v Speaker 9>ninety four tonight, which tells you that he's not holding

0:30:50.240 --> 0:30:54.520
<v Speaker 9>back mechanically, he's aligned properly and he's understanding more about

0:30:54.560 --> 0:30:57.360
<v Speaker 9>but sequencing in the big leagues way different than Japan.

0:30:57.440 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 9>And there's something that you know, I've asked him about

0:31:00.360 --> 0:31:02.920
<v Speaker 9>going back to spring training, and it's a big lesson today.

0:31:03.240 --> 0:31:05.640
<v Speaker 9>It's a big step to learn what that means, how

0:31:05.720 --> 0:31:07.840
<v Speaker 9>to approach one through nine in the big league level.

0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:09.800
<v Speaker 9>And I'm so happy to the fact that even when

0:31:09.840 --> 0:31:11.920
<v Speaker 9>he's gotten into a little bit of trouble lately, he's

0:31:12.000 --> 0:31:13.960
<v Speaker 9>found a way with his own stuff to become his

0:31:14.040 --> 0:31:14.520
<v Speaker 9>own reliever.

0:31:15.360 --> 0:31:17.920
<v Speaker 2>What did you make of the sixth inning tonight? Obviously

0:31:18.080 --> 0:31:21.480
<v Speaker 2>Pa has slipped, He got a gift triple right there.

0:31:22.000 --> 0:31:24.480
<v Speaker 2>He gave up a run, bases loaded, he couldn't get

0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:27.080
<v Speaker 2>out of that jam. Dave Roberts brought in Jack Dryer.

0:31:27.520 --> 0:31:29.640
<v Speaker 2>What did you make a bit the way he handled

0:31:29.720 --> 0:31:34.200
<v Speaker 2>some adversity or didn't handle adversity in that sixth inning tonight?

0:31:34.840 --> 0:31:37.320
<v Speaker 9>If you watch the approach by the Mariners, totally different.

0:31:37.400 --> 0:31:39.640
<v Speaker 9>Kevin Seisser is a guy that was a good contact her.

0:31:40.040 --> 0:31:43.920
<v Speaker 9>He talks, spray the baseball, be selective. Third time around.

0:31:44.160 --> 0:31:49.040
<v Speaker 9>Second time around, they're saying, don't chase, don't spread his own,

0:31:49.160 --> 0:31:51.040
<v Speaker 9>let him come into the zone. And then when he

0:31:51.120 --> 0:31:53.840
<v Speaker 9>wasn't getting those swings and misses that he was getting earlier,

0:31:54.360 --> 0:31:56.480
<v Speaker 9>then he got a little bit tentative, which is one

0:31:56.520 --> 0:31:59.480
<v Speaker 9>thing he'll learn that he has to stay as aggressive

0:31:59.480 --> 0:32:02.000
<v Speaker 9>as possible against a team like the Mariners, and if

0:32:02.000 --> 0:32:04.520
<v Speaker 9>they're not chasing, you get back to the zone. First

0:32:04.560 --> 0:32:07.200
<v Speaker 9>pitch of the ball game today against the lefty today, slider,

0:32:07.280 --> 0:32:09.360
<v Speaker 9>first strike. That was the biggest indicator to me that

0:32:09.440 --> 0:32:11.880
<v Speaker 9>he felt really good about the stuff. So when the

0:32:11.960 --> 0:32:14.360
<v Speaker 9>lineup turns around and the more success he has, they

0:32:14.480 --> 0:32:16.760
<v Speaker 9>you know quite well, the big guys, the guys that

0:32:16.960 --> 0:32:18.840
<v Speaker 9>take the next step are the ones that make the

0:32:18.920 --> 0:32:21.400
<v Speaker 9>biggest adjustments, not by shying away from the zone, but

0:32:21.480 --> 0:32:24.200
<v Speaker 9>attacking in a different way. And he now has three

0:32:24.280 --> 0:32:27.280
<v Speaker 9>pitches he can attack with and turning, he'll know and

0:32:27.440 --> 0:32:29.280
<v Speaker 9>learn that he's got to stay with it and become

0:32:29.320 --> 0:32:32.080
<v Speaker 9>a guy that wet and push himself and just looking

0:32:32.120 --> 0:32:34.240
<v Speaker 9>that dugout and when you look to your manager and

0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:35.920
<v Speaker 9>your pitching coach, I'm not coming out of this. I

0:32:35.960 --> 0:32:37.960
<v Speaker 9>got still enough of me to attack his zone and

0:32:38.040 --> 0:32:38.800
<v Speaker 9>get some guys out.

0:32:39.520 --> 0:32:42.720
<v Speaker 2>Jose Mota is joining us on Dodger Talk after the

0:32:42.800 --> 0:32:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers beat the Mariners six to two. Tonight's game was

0:32:45.880 --> 0:32:49.560
<v Speaker 2>brought to you by Modello Modello The mark of a fighter.

0:32:49.960 --> 0:32:52.920
<v Speaker 2>How about Dave Roberts springing in Edwin Diaz back to

0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:55.440
<v Speaker 2>back nights. He wants to knock off that rust as

0:32:55.560 --> 0:32:56.560
<v Speaker 2>quickly as possible.

0:32:56.600 --> 0:33:00.640
<v Speaker 9>It seems like it seems like, you know these Dodgers players,

0:33:00.720 --> 0:33:02.880
<v Speaker 9>we see a guy going the aos like get me

0:33:03.000 --> 0:33:05.440
<v Speaker 9>back and get me to stay, which is something that

0:33:05.640 --> 0:33:09.160
<v Speaker 9>was emphasized so much by Andrew Freeman yesterday. We want

0:33:09.200 --> 0:33:11.840
<v Speaker 9>guys to get back, but we want guys to stay.

0:33:12.280 --> 0:33:14.040
<v Speaker 9>That's it. It's like we don't want to be testing

0:33:14.080 --> 0:33:16.840
<v Speaker 9>the waters in the big leagues. Suffer setback, but I'm glad.

0:33:16.920 --> 0:33:19.560
<v Speaker 9>I mean, Edwin wants to be a closer. You know,

0:33:19.760 --> 0:33:21.400
<v Speaker 9>Twner Scott is a guy that did a good job

0:33:21.560 --> 0:33:24.920
<v Speaker 9>replacing him. But I like the decision made by Dave Roberts.

0:33:25.040 --> 0:33:27.120
<v Speaker 9>I didn't expect them to put on the fire yesterday,

0:33:27.520 --> 0:33:29.240
<v Speaker 9>but it was like, this is what he's coming back

0:33:29.280 --> 0:33:32.200
<v Speaker 9>to why wait. Obviously there's some things that he's pitching

0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:34.760
<v Speaker 9>for and things that he signed for. Obviously in terms

0:33:34.760 --> 0:33:36.960
<v Speaker 9>of being a reliever and being a closer, which you

0:33:37.000 --> 0:33:39.360
<v Speaker 9>have a lot of pride in and you know, like, look,

0:33:39.440 --> 0:33:41.560
<v Speaker 9>Kelly Jansen, you come back. You're a closer. That's your

0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:43.280
<v Speaker 9>job and that's what you've been done your entire life.

0:33:43.680 --> 0:33:45.640
<v Speaker 9>And you don't want to mess with the psyche of it,

0:33:46.160 --> 0:33:48.960
<v Speaker 9>mentality of it, aggressiveness of it. But Edwin has gotten

0:33:48.960 --> 0:33:50.600
<v Speaker 9>a little bit better, and it's good to see Dave

0:33:50.680 --> 0:33:54.480
<v Speaker 9>that the fastfall average a mile higher yesterday than he

0:33:54.600 --> 0:33:57.080
<v Speaker 9>averaged in the month of April, which means that he

0:33:57.240 --> 0:33:59.720
<v Speaker 9>is letting loose things are gonna get better at command,

0:33:59.760 --> 0:34:02.360
<v Speaker 9>but certainly not holding back in velocity, and that's always

0:34:02.400 --> 0:34:04.200
<v Speaker 9>a good sign for God like Edwin Diaz.

0:34:04.760 --> 0:34:06.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, Jose, thanks a lot for checking in.

0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:09.440
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk to you tomorrow night after the Dodgers and

0:34:09.600 --> 0:34:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Red Sox hook up for the first time this season.

0:34:13.000 --> 0:34:14.759
<v Speaker 9>Hey, Lward told me to ask you, what does that

0:34:14.840 --> 0:34:15.279
<v Speaker 9>you do again?

0:34:15.880 --> 0:34:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Exactly right? They think I just show up and make

0:34:18.000 --> 0:34:18.399
<v Speaker 1>them laugh.

0:34:19.080 --> 0:34:20.600
<v Speaker 9>You work hard to anybody, my friend.

0:34:20.760 --> 0:34:21.000
<v Speaker 6>Be good?

0:34:21.600 --> 0:34:23.440

<v Speaker 2>Munsey even asked me, it's like, what do you do? Like,
