1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,279 Speaker 1: I mean he saved the game yesterday for the Dodgers, 2 00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: There's no question about it, made a diving play in 3 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:08,000 Speaker 1: the last inning. He hasn't been fortunate enough to get hits, 4 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: but defensively he has earned every bit of playing time. 5 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:23,440 Speaker 2: What up, everybody, and welcome to the Thursday edition of Dodgers' Territory. 6 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 2: I'm Alana Rizzo. That is my guy, Clint Pisias. Also, 7 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 2: thanks to everybody that watched us last night on playback. 8 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 2: We enjoyed doing that as we kind of just talked 9 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 2: over the game with Daniel Murphy and of course Bridge 10 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 2: Rolie Scott Braun joined us as well. Thanks for being here. 11 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 2: Make sure you rate us like us five stars all 12 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 2: of the things. And by the way, Clint Eric Carros 13 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 2: is coming up on the show momentarily longtime Dodger first baseman, 14 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 2: so we'll talk to e K coming up. 15 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:49,200 Speaker 3: Let's get to the big ticket. 16 00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: So they snatched the final game of that finale against 17 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 2: the Washington Nationals. Finished the road trip tune four not 18 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: what you want to see, but I guess two and 19 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 2: four is better than one and five. 20 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 3: What was your biggest takeaway? 21 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 4: You know, first road trip of the season, first real 22 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 4: road trip of the season. Maybe just team a little 23 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 4: bit flat, pitching, a little bit struggling with the loss 24 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 4: of Blake Snell there. 25 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 5: Happy to see them pull one out a good game. 26 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 4: I think that could get that game we watched last 27 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 4: night or yesterday. 28 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 5: Afternoon very much a needed game. 29 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 4: I said it a few times on the playback broadcast, 30 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 4: you know, having that happy flight back to la That 31 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 4: would have sucked to have a one in five flight. 32 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 5: But at two and four you're feeling a little bit better. 33 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 6: Yeah. 34 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: You mentioned the pitching, and it was problematic. Starting pitching 35 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 2: was not great. Justin Robleski was not good. Landon Nat 36 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 2: got into trouble even after being spotted a four to 37 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: nothing lead. You see the notes there, the numbers there 38 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: from Faby and Ardaya of the Athletic you know, seven 39 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: and third innings, twelve hits, thirteen earned runs between those 40 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 2: two guys, seven walks, six k You need to see 41 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: more swing and miss from land and Neck. And also, 42 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: not to mention, Tyler glasnow wasn't that great either, I 43 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 2: mean five earned runs obviously dealing with the weather issues 44 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 2: and the mud and his cleats in Philadelphia. So the 45 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 2: starting pitching not great, and it just goes to show 46 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: you that as much depth as this team does have, 47 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: when Blake Snell goes down, it shifts the you know, 48 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 2: the positions a little bit. And these guys got into 49 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 2: some trouble and you and I were talking about it 50 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 2: with Sarah Clint and our pre production meeting today about how, yes, 51 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 2: we have depth, but it's not really until the second 52 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 2: half of the season, or at least later on than 53 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: what we have right now. 54 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's gonna take a little bit of time 55 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 4: to get some of the big names back. Of course, 56 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 4: Kershaw eventually seeing at some point in time show Hey 57 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 4: Tani in the lineup or in the rotation. Emmet Sheen 58 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 4: is one of those guys. I think the injury to 59 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 4: the late spring injury to Tony Gonsolin kind of affected 60 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 4: things for this team as well. But you know, they 61 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 4: needed more. They needed more out of her Bleski in 62 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 4: that start spot start. Definitely needed more out of Landed Nac. 63 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: I have higher expectations for Nac than Ribleski, but just 64 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 4: didn't have it. He had zero command to the fastball. 65 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 4: He's He's done enough for this team in the past 66 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 4: to at least earn himself a second start. Of course, 67 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 4: most likely we won't see Rableski. He was optioned after 68 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 4: that that rough getting roughed up eight runs over five innings. 69 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:28,399 Speaker 4: So unless there's another injury something like that, we won't 70 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 4: see Rableski back. And there's a chance, you know, with 71 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 4: the way things are lining up. I mentioned Tony Gonsolin. 72 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 4: He's he is on the mend. He's pitching at Triple A, 73 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 4: and he's actually done pretty dang well in his two starts, 74 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 4: giving up a run over five total innings over those 75 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,119 Speaker 4: two starts. The hope was that maybe they could build 76 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 4: him up to about you know, four or five innings. 77 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 4: But there's a chance, there's a chance that we could 78 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 4: see the Catman coming back for this team next week 79 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 4: again looking really good. And this is somebody that I've 80 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 4: been very high on over the years. I love the 81 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 4: cat Man and I think he brings another angle of 82 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 4: stability to this team and to the rotation right now 83 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 4: without Blake Snell, and you know, he needs some bounce backs. 84 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 5: You got. 85 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 4: What's his name, Yamamoto Sasaki going once a week, and 86 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 4: there's kind of the limitations. There are the struggles with 87 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 4: when one guy goes down. It throws off the whole 88 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 4: rhythm of the rotation. 89 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's some of those restrictions that we talked about. 90 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 2: When you have guys that go every six day basically 91 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 2: to your point once a week, you know, and one 92 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: of your starters goes down, then you're gonna have to 93 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 2: pivot to other guys that perhaps wouldn't be in a 94 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 2: starting rotation at the big league level, you know, if 95 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 2: it weren't for those injuries. We know Justin Robleski is 96 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 2: not going to get a start against the Rockies barring injury. 97 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: He has to stay in the minor leagues for fifteen 98 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 2: days after being optioned. But we will see landon Neck. 99 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 2: And I know that you're big on Neck. You like 100 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 2: him better in terms of stuff than Robleski. But Clint, 101 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: he's going to have to have more swing and miss 102 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 2: stuff in this outing against the Rockies, which is a 103 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: possibility certainly with that team. 104 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 3: But you know, he's got look better than he. 105 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: Did yesterday if he wants to be considered to be 106 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 2: a legitimate starting rotation guy for this club. 107 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, he's somebody that he's gonna pick up 108 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 4: some spots starts. He's gonna probably start ten to fifteen 109 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 4: games for this team over the season. Maybe fifteen is 110 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 4: kind of a lot, but he just needs to be 111 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 4: a little more ready to answer the bell when that 112 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 4: bell is run for the team. He didn't have it yesterday, 113 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 4: he said, you know after the game, just really didn't 114 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 4: have command of anything. We had some good spurts, bad 115 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 4: spurts in there throughout that start, but you got to 116 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 4: be able to protect a four run lead, especially knowing 117 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 4: that every time you get an opportunity to pitch for, 118 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 4: you know, this team in front of Dave Robertson Company, 119 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 4: you really got to show up and show out because. 120 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 5: There's just so much talent on this roster. 121 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 4: But again, all things considered, two and four in a 122 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 4: road trip feels a lot better than one and five 123 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 4: for sure. And home cooking coming for the boys, I'm 124 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 4: sure they are very very happy to be back home 125 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 4: in La. 126 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 5: Get an off day in LA. That's got to make 127 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 5: you feel good as well. 128 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll talk to Eric carros about that too coming up. 129 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 2: Just how good it is to not only have the 130 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: happy flight, as you mentioned, but just to get back 131 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: home and kind of right the ship. Before we get 132 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 2: to Eric Carrolls, We're gonna talk to him in just 133 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: a second.

A two 185 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 2: and four record is not what I had on my 186 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 2: bingo card. What did you notice in the two series, 187 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 2: first against the Phillies of course, and then obviously this 188 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 2: last one against the Nats. 189 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: What was your biggest takeaway? 190 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to get on the baseball 191 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 1: standpoints like, look, they didn't hit with runners in scoring position. 192 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 6: The starting pitching wasn't great, defense wasn't up to par. 193 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: So if you want to go on the baseball side 194 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: and say, okay, well that's what happened, I'd take it, 195 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 1: you know, a step further, I say, look at the 196 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: weather wasn't great. 197 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 6: There were a lot of. 198 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: Festivities going on, especially when we got to Washington. Basically 199 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: this season really hasn't started for the Dodgers. 200 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 6: And what I mean by that, Tokyo. 201 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: Then you come back here, you're off for a week 202 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: and a half, two weeks, and then you've got all 203 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: the festivities of opening Day, and then you've got the 204 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: ring ceremony, and you've got the show, Hey Otani, Bobblehead, 205 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 1: all these sort of things going on. 206 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 6: So then you go right on the road and again 207 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 6: you go into Philly. 208 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 1: It's a big series. Weather was not great. You go 209 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: to the White House and have those ceremonies in the 210 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: Capitol on when you're in Washington, and now you get 211 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: back home and now I think for the Dog the 212 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: season begins tomorrow. 213 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 4: You know, one of the things I wanted to ask you, 214 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously, I think we don't consider that all 215 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 4: of the pomp and circumstance of the start of the season, 216 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 4: a lot of things going on for this team, and 217 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 4: you're finally getting the boys together that first road trip 218 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 4: of the season. Like a lot of said, it's not 219 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 4: exactly what you want. At least you get the win 220 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 4: on getaway day. You feel better about that happy flight 221 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 4: home when you're going through this. Let's let's touch on 222 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 4: the you know, the experience of e K longtime a 223 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 4: big leaguer, longtime Dodger. Hey, when you're out there struggling 224 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 4: on the road, how much does that help just knowing that, hey, 225 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 4: you're going back home. You got fifty thousand strong coming 226 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 4: at you Dodger Stadium, coming back, and you can kind 227 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 4: of start to really settle into the season. 228 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: Moving forward, well, it's like you're saying, you get to 229 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: settle into the season. Also coming back to the West Coast, 230 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 1: it really makes you appreciate, you know, playing out here. 231 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: You know, whether you're in San Diego, whether you're Los Angeles, 232 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 1: you know, Sacramento, wherever, San Francisco, all those places weather wise, 233 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: that is a big advantage. So you get to come 234 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: back and again it's a it's a blip, right. 235 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 6: Obviously there were some things that you would like to 236 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 6: do better. You'd like to clean it up from a 237 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 6: baseball standpoint, you know. 238 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: But again it's it's you know, four or five games 239 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 1: a stretch, you're playing without Freddie Freeman. You've had two 240 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 1: games this year where you've had Mookie and Freddy in 241 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: the lineup. A Grant Key k A r Nandez has 242 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: been has been unreal defensively over at first base. Offensively, 243 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: you know, if it's not a home run, then it 244 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: doesn't count for. 245 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 6: Keek because that's all he's done this year. 246 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: But again, there's so many things that you know, It's 247 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: just it's some games on the schedule, and I know 248 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: people probably don't want to hear that, Oh my goodness 249 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: to Dodgers, and no, you don't care about these games 250 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: and everything matters and this and that, and it's you know, 251 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: the reality is you had a road trip, you went 252 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: too and four great, come back home and get going. 253 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: E K. 254 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 2: Do you think that Andy Pajs has bought more time? 255 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 2: I mean, he don't. The Daughters don't win that game 256 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 2: yesterday without his two home runs. You know, do you 257 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: think that he's starting to get going offensively? Because the 258 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 2: routes have been problematic defensively, but you can deal with 259 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 2: it if he's producing at the plate. Has he extended 260 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 2: his time at the big league level? 261 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: I mean obviously, you know, home run two home runs, 262 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: you know, aren't going to hurt at all. 263 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 6: Right, He's gonna have to make some adjustments. Hitting at 264 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 6: the bottom part of that lineup. 265 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: You know, you think, okay, this is a place where 266 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: you can hide somebody, but you can't. 267 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 6: You've got to You've got to look at it as 268 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 6: what it is. 269 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: And that's I'm hitting in front of sho Heotani, and 270 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: so you know, Andy again, he's had. 271 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 6: Some at bats that look good. Then he's had some 272 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 6: at bats that you just say, you know what's going on. 273 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: And for a young player, it's it's difficult enough to 274 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: to make yourself an everyday player in the big leagues, 275 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: but you add that to the pressure of playing in LA, 276 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 1: playing for a team that's gonna compete for a world championship, 277 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: knowing that you don't have a three month window to 278 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: just go and you know you're being looked upon, you know, 279 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: every single game, every you know you're being scrutinized. I mean, 280 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: fortunately for Andy right now that there he's going, he's 281 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: earned himself. 282 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 6: An opportunity, there's no question about it. 283 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: But again, at the end of the day, you're gonna 284 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: have to produce, and you know, the Dodgers don't have 285 00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: a lot of options right now. 286 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 6: James Outman isn't playing great down in Oklahoma City, and 287 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 6: so he's gonna get a run for a while. But 288 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 6: there have been some. 289 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: Things that you know, you go, okay, you got to 290 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,319 Speaker 1: clean that up, whether it's the base running, the defense. 291 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: But again, if you're swinging the bat, you're gonna you're 292 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: gonna give yourself some more a b's for sure. 293 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's another part of some of the 294 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 4: problems here. You mentioned this team miss missing Freddy Freeman, 295 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 4: and it kind of sets the lineup a little bit behind, 296 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 4: especially towards the bottom part of the order, where production 297 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 4: has been hard to find. Whether it be Pa has 298 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,559 Speaker 4: hitting in that eight or ninth spot but struggles there 299 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 4: for the bottom part of the lineup. How much does 300 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 4: Freddy Freeman returning just kind of help everybody get back 301 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 4: into their slots and where they belong. 302 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: Well, obviously the elongates things. It presents another issue for 303 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 1: the opposing team. But you hit it right on the 304 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: head that the bottom of the lineup is is going 305 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: to have to contribute. Whether you're talking about you know, 306 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: Max Munsey's who's a guy, you know, a Dodger that 307 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: has hit over thirty five home runs. 308 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 6: I believed four times. He's going to be more productive 309 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 6: right now. 310 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 1: He's in a rut right now and not swinging the 311 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,640 Speaker 1: bat like he's capable. You know, you hope that that 312 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: Paz gets going key, k You know, hitting at the 313 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: bottom of that lineup is you know, if you need 314 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: a home run, yeah, he's your guy, but he's just 315 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: hitting some bad luck and just hasn't been able to 316 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: get going. So there are other things that you know, 317 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: once his lineup is kicking on all cylinders, you're going 318 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: to be fine. Obviously bringing Freddie back, of course, you 319 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: know it's going to help things. I would just say this, 320 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: like what I The Dodgers are the Dodgers, and they're 321 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: going to be fine, and I would bet on him 322 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: one hundred out of one hundred times, and they are 323 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: going to be stretches throughout the year where you just say, wow, 324 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: that's that's not ideal or that's not crisp. 325 00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 6: But you have to remember you look in the win 326 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 6: and there is not a team in. 327 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: The big leagues that has more wins than the Los 328 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: Angeles Dodgers. 329 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 3: That's true. We have to keep things in perspective. 330 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: We think if they don't go one hundred and sixty 331 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 2: two and oh something, that's really wrong. You had alluded 332 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 2: to the way that Key k Hernandez is playing defense 333 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: ek and he's been tremendous. I mean this is a 334 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 2: guy that's played every position with the exception of catcher. 335 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 2: How good has he been at first base? I mean 336 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 2: you know that position better than anybody else. 337 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 3: What do you like about it. 338 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 2: It's not like key k goes out there and works 339 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 2: at first base. He's just naturally gifted to do so well. 340 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 6: I will say. And I went up and told him 341 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 6: at the cage the other day. 342 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: I went up and I just said, you know, you've 343 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: been absolutely elite over there defensively. 344 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 6: And you know, he made a comment. 345 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 1: He said in twenty nineteen, he was playing first base 346 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: and a ball was hit to him and he went 347 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: to feed the pitcher and he just instead of moving 348 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: and taking momentum towards first base, he just threw the 349 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: ball flat footed, air and throw and he told him off, 350 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: he says, never again, and meaning that he was going 351 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: to be prepared. He was going to learn the nuances 352 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 1: of the position. And whether you're playing second base, shortstop, 353 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: first base, athletically you could probably go over and fill 354 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: those positions for a day or two days or three 355 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: days and you're not going to be exposed. But the 356 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: more plays you get over there at whatever respective position, 357 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: there are little quote unquote tricks of the trade. And 358 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: Kik has done, like I said, the footwork has been crazy, 359 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 1: moving his feet, the ability to take throws over there 360 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 1: when they're not quite online, the ability. 361 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 6: To pick the ball, knowing what to do, knowing where 362 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 6: to be. 363 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: And again, you know, people probably don't get all excited 364 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: about that. 365 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,479 Speaker 6: But outside of you know, a catcher in the pitcher, first. 366 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: Baseman usually is touching the ball the most of any 367 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: other position out there. 368 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 6: And like I said, he has been. 369 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 7: He. 370 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: I mean, he saved the game yesterday for the Dodgers, 371 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: There's no question about it, made it die. I played 372 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 1: in the last inning. Uh, you know, got the runner 373 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: at second base. And like I said, he hasn't been 374 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: He hasn't been fortunate enough to get hits, been hitting 375 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: the home runs. But defensively he has earned every bit 376 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: of playing time. 377 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, defensively he's been tremendous, as we have become accustomed to. 378 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, though, Ek, you played in 379 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 2: a different era, but you did play in the big 380 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 2: leagues for fourteen seasons. Did you ever think in your 381 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: time you would see a five hundred million dollar contract 382 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 2: for a first baseman Vladimir Guerrero Junior obviously inking that 383 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 2: with a three hundred and twenty five million dollars signing bonus. 384 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 2: I mean, the money is insane right now. 385 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: The three hundred and twenty five is is what surprised me, 386 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: the three hundred and twenty five million dollars signing boat. 387 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: Is that when I saw that, I said, Wow, that's interesting. 388 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: So I will always say this, and so people will say, oh, 389 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: five hundred million, that's crazy. You know whatever Soto got, 390 00:17:56,359 --> 00:18:00,120 Speaker 1: you know, show Hey gets or whatever. In all those cases, 391 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: the ownership side thinks they're getting a deal, correct. 392 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 6: So I don't like when I when I when it's 393 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 6: crazy money, I don't. I don't. 394 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: I don't go into that the crazy because I don't 395 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 1: think it's crazy money. I don't think it's. On the surface, 396 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: the number looks large. But again, these are very smart 397 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: people on ownership side. They've made a lot of money, 398 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: usually in a lot of other endeavors. 399 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 6: And they think they're getting a deal. 400 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: So, you know, and and and again too, I will 401 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: also say that those are the accept You see those 402 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: sorts of deals, and you know, the reality is, you know, 403 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: majority of guys are playing one, two, three years, making 404 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,360 Speaker 1: you know, not a ton of money, and then they're 405 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: off to the real world. 406 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 6: And do you feel sorry for them, No, of course not. 407 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 6: And you know, everybody got to chase their dream and 408 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 6: getting to do something that they love. 409 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: But when when you're talking about like money like this, 410 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: it's completely the exception. And I will again say to 411 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: no end the owner thinks he got a deal, that's 412 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 1: enough set right there. Yep. 413 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, a couple of a couple of kids chasing the 414 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 4: dream right now. You uh, you might be their father. 415 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,959 Speaker 4: They tell us, we've got Kyle and of course Jared 416 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,359 Speaker 4: uh in the Dodgers organization. What can you tell us 417 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 4: about the growth of the Carros boys and how much 418 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 4: close are we're getting to see in Jared potentially make 419 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 4: an impact for this ball club. 420 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 6: So so both of them are climbing the ladder. 421 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: And again you have to you have to be good, 422 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: but you also have to be in the right place 423 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 1: at the right time. 424 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 6: You have to have some breaks. Uh. 425 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 1: Jared couldn't be in a better organization as far as 426 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 1: development is concerned and allowing him to be the best 427 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: version of himself. You know, you saw you know, Land 428 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: and Naka start Robleski the other day as well, and 429 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: I think you're gonna see that throughout the season. The 430 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 1: Dodgers going into their their farm system to use some 431 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 1: uh some spot starters, guys, to give the uh you 432 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: of the starting staff the big league level a breather 433 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 1: here and there. So he goes out and he throws 434 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: like he he has. He'll I think he'll have an 435 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: opportunity to debut at some point this year. 436 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 6: Uh. 437 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: The other one, Kyle, he's in the Rockies organization and 438 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: uh he's in Double A. 439 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 6: He's playing extremely well. I mean it's it's early on. 440 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: I had a great year last year, and that that 441 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: organization has uh, you know, there's a lot more opportunity 442 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: in that organization. 443 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 6: Uh, to say the least. 444 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: You know, the Dodgers, Like I said, you you know, 445 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: it's great to develop in that organization to get an 446 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: opportunity there. You know, it's it's a lot different situation 447 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: than the Rockies. But both of the boys, Uh, they 448 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: couldn't be in a better organization for their for their needs. 449 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 4: I'll leave you here with a kind of open ender 450 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 4: question for this team. 451 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 5: You're coming back home, like you. 452 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 4: Said, we're starting to get to a point where it's 453 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 4: a real baseball season moving forward.

Of course, 540 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 4: the majority of those with the Los Angeles Dodgers spent 541 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 4: twelve seasons with the ball club, and it's great to 542 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 4: see him one almost back home. Is sure, he's in 543 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 4: Orange County, but he's producing and he looks like he's 544 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 4: having fun with the Angels, who maybe maybe are slightly 545 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 4: better than teams we've seen in the past. But huge 546 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 4: congrats to another Dodger legend. There, Kenley Jansen, and I 547 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 4: wanted to ask you. Obviously, you spent a lot of 548 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 4: time around Kenley throughout his career, throughout your career as well. 549 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 4: You got like a kJ seventy four story that stands 550 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 4: out that you can share. 551 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 5: Out with us. 552 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 3: Kenley. 553 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 2: I mean, Kellley obviously is one of my favorite people. 554 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 2: He's very easy to root for. And congratulations, Kenley, I'm 555 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: very proud of you. Four hundred and fifty saves in 556 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 2: the big leagues is nothing to be shy about. And again, 557 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 2: you know, he posts every time and I appreciate him 558 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 2: very much. And not to mention, Kenley just lost his 559 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 2: mom a couple of weeks ago, so I know that 560 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 2: his heart has been heavy. And there's always that conversation 561 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 2: as to whether or not Kellllley' is a Hall of Famer, 562 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 2: you know, And the numbers continue to pile up, and 563 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 2: the numbers continue to add up, and AJ and Eric 564 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 2: and Scott we're talking about this too on foul Territory. 565 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 2: But he's definitely a Hall of Fame person. I don't 566 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 2: know if he's a Hall of Famer, but he's definitely 567 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 2: a Hall of Fame person. And the thing about Kenley 568 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 2: that I'll always remember is he had such a special 569 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 2: relationship with Don Nwcomb. And when Don, the late great 570 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: Don Nukeomb was alive, he would always be First of all, 571 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 2: he's always. 572 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 3: The best dressed person at the ballpark. Man was in 573 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 3: a three pece suit. 574 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 2: Every he would sit down there, Yeah, he would sit 575 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 2: down there in the owner seats during VP when the 576 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 2: Dodgers would take VP, and he would just have really 577 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,719 Speaker 2: long conversations with Kenley and with Matt Kemp and with 578 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 2: Andre Ethier, and he really took a liking to Kenley. 579 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 2: And one thing Don demanded that Kenley start to do 580 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 2: was start to run. And it was because of Don 581 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 2: Newcombe that Kenley started implementing a running regimen in his 582 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 2: routine and. 583 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 3: He started running a ton of time. 584 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 2: And he was always like running the warning track at 585 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: Dodger Stadium or wherever we were, whether the team was 586 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 2: on the road. And I just know that he has 587 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 2: such a profound Mister Newcomb had such a profound impact 588 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 2: on Kenley. And again, remember Kenlly had to go through 589 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 2: a fib and try to pitch through that, and you know, 590 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 2: especially in Colorado with the altitude and all of that, 591 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 2: there so to see what Kenley has gone through, and 592 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,919 Speaker 2: remember he uses catcher right, so to be a to 593 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 2: be on the all time Saves list is pretty important 594 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 2: and pretty special considering you know, he came up as 595 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 2: a catcher and he caught Clayton Kershaw's first. 596 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 6: Outing, so that's crazy. 597 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 2: He you know, just it's incredible and I'm proud of him, 598 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 2: and I just think he's a special person. 599 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 5: A huge shout out to our friend Ned Colletti as well. 600 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 4: He's the guy who told him, you know, maybe maybe 601 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 4: catching isn't maybe hitting isn't your prowess, buddy, when't we 602 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 4: get you off the mound. Of course, Kenley was not 603 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 4: a fan of the idea of being a pitcher, but 604 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 4: I would say it worked out pretty dang well. I think, uh, 605 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 4: I think there's a conversation for sure for the Hall 606 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,400 Speaker 4: of Fame. He's one of eight, you know, closers, eight 607 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 4: pitchers to reach that milestone. If if you know, people 608 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 4: are getting voted in on that, we've got Billy Wagner 609 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 4: now finally in the Hall of Fame. Maybe maybe Kenley 610 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 4: is gonna be one of those guys as well, because 611 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 4: he just continues to get it done and he wants 612 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 4: to keep on pitching, and you know. 613 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 5: Much love, much love to to the big man. 614 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, number seventy four. 615 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 2: The reason he wears number seventy four, if you don't 616 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 2: know that story, is because that was his parents' house 617 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 2: number there in Curius how they lived at seventy four 618 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 2: or whatever Clint Phacius Lane or whatever the address was. 619 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 2: But congratulations Street, Congratulations Kenley.
