Listen, Dodgers take two or three. 29 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 5: You feel good every time the Dodgers go out there 30 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 5: and win a series, but I felt like it was 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 5: pretty important for them to at least win the series. 32 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 5: Ideally you sweep, but you've, like you said, lowly Nats. 33 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 5: You gotta sweep or beat the lowly Gnats after an 34 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 5: emotional series against the Padres. 35 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 4: What's your take on that? 36 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 3: I agree with you. This is a team that you 37 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 3: absolutely have to beat. I'll take the series win. You 38 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 3: would have liked the sweep, but I'll take the series win. 39 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 3: By the way, happy birthday, Gen, Sorry that there's no 40 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 3: game on your birthday. What the heck are you going 41 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 3: to do? No game on your birthday? Oh man? Yeah, 42 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 3: it's important to take the series win against this team. Obviously. 43 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 3: I feel like the Manats have been in a rebuild 44 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 3: mode with Mike Rizzo in that front office for quite 45 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 3: some time. And obviously they've not been the same since 46 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 3: one Sodo was traded, since Bryce Harper was gone, Max Scherzer, 47 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 3: trade Turner, all of the things. But you needed to 48 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: and our boy Max Munsey, friend of the program coming 49 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 3: up large star as coming off with offensive numbers for 50 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 3: Max Munsey against national two hundred and one career homers 51 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 3: as a Dodger and number two hundred Clint was a 52 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 3: grand fricking Slam. 53 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 4: He had himself a day. 54 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 5: So I was at the ballpark yesterday able to witness 55 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 5: the glory that was Maximum monthly passing, hitting two hundred 56 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 5: and passing two hundred, two hundred and one seven run 57 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 5: batted in day with the grand Slam followed by the 58 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 5: three run homer one inning later. 59 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 4: And you see on the stat are on the screen. 60 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 5: There twenty two days in between having another seven RBI game, 61 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 5: which is the fewest number of days between games since 62 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 5: or since. 63 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 4: Nineteen fifty one or whatever it is. 64 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 5: Listen, I didn't really read the stat before I put 65 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 5: it on the screen, but the point is Maximum Munsei 66 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 5: going off there, and I want to ask the question. 67 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 5: I want to pose the question to everybody. We already 68 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 5: posted it on social media's as well, But I do 69 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 5: wonder are we at a point now where we could 70 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 5: officially call Max Munsey a Dodger legend. I want to 71 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 5: touch on that in a second, But first, people thankfully 72 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 5: are showing up to the ballot box when it comes 73 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 5: to the All Star Game voting, Dodgers showing up pretty nicely. 74 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 4: What do you think about this? 75 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 5: Max Munsey second in voting in terms of a third 76 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 5: base voting for the National League All Star Team. 77 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 3: You know what I think is the most amazing thing 78 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 3: about this is that there's been so much talk about 79 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 3: whether Max should even be as as a third baseman. Obviously, 80 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 3: they do it based on where the player is to 81 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: open the season. I want to be very clear on that. 82 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 3: So if Max Munsey decides that he's getting a ton 83 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 3: of reps at second or at first, or he's just 84 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 3: the DH or whatever, the ballot is set with where 85 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: they are position wise to start the season. But he's 86 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 3: been really good at third base. He's been very helpful, 87 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 3: being able to kind of move all over the middle 88 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 3: of the infield. First second, we haven't seen him in 89 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 3: short yet but verse second and third for Max Munsey. 90 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 3: But no, I think this guy if you look at 91 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 3: where he ranks, Clint, and you did such a good 92 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 3: job pointing this out on our call. If you look 93 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: at where Max Munsey ranks in terms of franchise history, 94 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 3: not just when they were in LA but I'm talking 95 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: way back when they were in Brooklyn. Look at where 96 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,679 Speaker 3: he is eighth among all time in terms of home 97 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 3: runs for the team, for the franchise back in the day, 98 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 3: you know, with Duke Snyder and Gil Hodges. I mean, 99 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 3: he's not even that far away. He's sixty nine away 100 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 3: from Eric Carross. If you look at what he's done, 101 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 3: not only in franchise history, but more importantly, this is 102 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: kind of where the legend status comes in, Clint. If 103 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 3: you look at what Max Munsey has done in the 104 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,039 Speaker 3: post season as far as home runs is concerned for 105 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 3: the Los Angeles Dodgers, you might be surprised at who 106 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:16,119 Speaker 3: he's tied with, Corey Seeger and Justin Turner. That's unbelievable 107 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 3: to me. Thirteen there at the top, lucky number thirteen. 108 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 3: I'd say that's kind of legendary status. I mean, some 109 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 3: set you know suck people. Some people stop motion hoay 110 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 3: as saying Max Munsey's not old enough to be a 111 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 3: Dodger legend. I don't know that it has to be 112 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 3: number of years or age, but I mean what he's 113 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 3: done as a member of Remember, this kid was sitting 114 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 3: on the couch with the job. 115 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 4: That's what athletics. 116 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 3: Decided that he wasn't good enough to be an athletic. 117 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 3: What he's not going to be an athletic And now 118 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 3: you have two hundred and one home runs as a Dodger. 119 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I think coming to LA really really 120 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 5: helped the dude out. Like you said, coming off off 121 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 5: off the couch. Essentially he was entertaining going and playing 122 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 5: baseball in Japan or in the KBO I forget which one. 123 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 5: But of course former Dodger GM turned now front office 124 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 5: guy again for the Dodgers. Farhands eety is like, I 125 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 5: know this guy, let's give him a flyer again. He 126 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 5: signs with the team in twenty seventeen, plays at Triple 127 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 5: A the entire season, has a really nice year. There 128 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 5: comes up thanks to due to injuries. Jt out early 129 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 5: in the twenty eighteen season, and Max Munsey has. 130 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 4: Not look back at all. 131 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 5: We're talking about a scrap heap signing to again, this 132 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 5: isn't arguable. I don't think he needs to be retired. 133 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 5: I don't think we were talking about Justin Turner as 134 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 5: a Dodger legend when he was still wearing Dodger blue 135 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 5: and has now bu Yeah, Justice and I think to 136 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 5: a degree, JT and Max Munsey are in that same conversation, 137 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 5: in that same breath. We're talking about a dude now 138 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 5: who's been a Dodger. He has the longest tenured position 139 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 5: player on the team. He does as you were mentioning 140 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 5: anything this ball club needs, you know, in twenty twenty one, 141 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 5: he was essentially going, you know. He was a Gold 142 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 5: Glove caliber first baseman for this team. Of course, has 143 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 5: the devastating elbow injury. Shout out Jase Peterson for not 144 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 5: knowing how to run down the line and then just 145 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 5: finding his way back, getting the swing back and always 146 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 5: finding ways to stay relevant. He's an ops merchant, even 147 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 5: if the batting average isn't always great. I mean he's 148 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 5: good for thirty bonds. 149 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: He gets on base, he gets base. 150 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 4: It's base. 151 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 3: Maybe Clint maybe legend is a little bit strong maybe 152 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 3: that adjective is a little bit strong or noun or 153 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 3: whatever the hell it is. But what about the fact 154 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 3: that perhaps he's one of the biggest impact players that 155 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 3: the Dodgers have had in recent years. Certainly over the 156 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 3: course of the years that he's been there, you're pretty 157 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 3: much guaranteed pencil in thirty home runs. But what he 158 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 3: does I mean when JT left, I mean, he kind 159 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 3: of became the captain of the team in terms of 160 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: the in terms of the position players, in terms of 161 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 3: keeping guys and holding guys ACCOUNTA will remember it was 162 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 3: Max Munsey that was the one that kind of rallied 163 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 3: the troops in the postseason last year to say, hey, guys, 164 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 3: I know, I know that we're husbands and fathers first, 165 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 3: but for the next three weeks, let's just play for 166 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 3: each other. Let's just you know, have this boys club 167 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 3: and you know, have separate planes and all of the things. 168 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 3: So maybe legend is a little strong. And some people 169 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 3: in our chat were saying that the Dodgers legends are 170 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 3: built on arms but not bats, And okay, I get that. 171 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 3: With Cofax and Drysdale and Clayton Kershaw and all the things, 172 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 3: and I get it. And I can appreciate it. But 173 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 3: Max Munsey has been one of the biggest impact players 174 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 3: for this club since he has become a Los Angeles Dodger, and. 175 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 4: Overall he's just a great dude. 176 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 5: But also like, yeah, Dodgers legends inherently are arms. But 177 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 5: there are the Steve Garvey's, there are the Ron Says, 178 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 5: particularly in La Dodgers. 179 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 4: On the La Dodgers side of the Ledger. 180 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 5: Of course, you have Hall of famers, and we saw 181 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 5: at the top of that list Roy Campanella, Duke Snyder. 182 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 5: Those are outright legends. Jackie Robinson, those are Hall of 183 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 5: Fame legends. But we're talking about the organization and what 184 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 5: he's what a player has meant over a stretch of time. 185 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 5: That's where I could identify somebody as like, all right, 186 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 5: you're at least entering that conversation of maybe somewhere down 187 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 5: the road he's not going to be a Hall of Famer, 188 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 5: but maybe somewhere down the road, they give him a 189 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 5: little plaque there where they have it out in center 190 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 5: field now to honor Dodgers legends, you know, because he's 191 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 5: one of these guys and they win another World Series, 192 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 5: he's going to be a big part of that as well. 193 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 3: That's the thing, right, I think I think it depends 194 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 3: on what they do this year. How many more? I mean, 195 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 3: what does he have two more years on his deal? 196 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 5: A year on his deal, there's a there's a player 197 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 5: or a team option, or it might be a mutual option. 198 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 5: After this year, it's only ten million, he max will 199 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 5: be back. He has said he's open to a bench role. 200 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 5: He just wants to be with this team. And that's 201 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 5: another thing that I think maybe just endears him to 202 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 5: me even more, is that he's a He's a. 203 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 4: Guy who I want to be a Dodger no matter what. 204 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 4: Same with JT. Obviously they will work out. 205 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 3: But obviously Joe Kelly, you know, all these guys like 206 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: want to be Dodgers forever. But it's like it's I 207 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 3: don't know, He's just been somebody that has put this 208 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 3: team on his back in a lot of different situations. 209 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 3: What he does in terms of the leadership role. And 210 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: if he is a bench player next year, that's fine, 211 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 3: but the leadership stuff's not going to end just because 212 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 3: he's not an everyday guy, just because he's not playing 213 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 3: at third base. So again, might be a little bit 214 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,079 Speaker 3: of a stretch, but I definitely love the impact that 215 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 3: he's brought to this club. 216 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 5: It's conversation another guy who is an outright baseball legend. 217 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 5: Let's talk about show Hey Otani, because guess what, he's 218 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 5: pitching again, and it turns out he can also hit 219 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,479 Speaker 5: when he's pitching. Has himself a triple and a homer yesterday. 220 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 5: But another one inning outing, one inning outing for show 221 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 5: Hey looked a lot better in my opinion. In his 222 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 5: own opinion as well, he said he felt a lot better. 223 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 5: You know, he has some things to work on, but 224 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 5: you know, I'm I'm kind of shocked. It was just 225 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 5: another one inning outing. What'd you think of show Hay 226 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 5: on the bump? And how is he supposed to continue 227 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 5: to build up? 228 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 3: I was confused because I know I'm not great at math, 229 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 3: but to me, twenty eight pitches in the first outing 230 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 3: is more than eighteen pitches in the second outing. I mean, 231 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 3: I was, I was thinking, is this reverse math like 232 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 3: reverse psychology? 233 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 6: Here? 234 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 3: What are we doing? I mean, obviously, the Dodgers pitching staff, 235 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 3: the Dodgers' training staff, show Hey, Tani, Dave Roberts, everybody 236 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 3: has a plan for this. But I thought, you know, 237 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 3: in order to stretch him out, I thought that he 238 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 3: would have to throw more pitches. But I don't know 239 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 3: exactly how many pitches he's throwing in his side session. 240 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: I don't know you know exactly what he's doing in 241 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 3: terms of his rehab and how his body felt after. Remember, 242 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 3: you can throw all the simulated games you want, you 243 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 3: can throw all the side sessions you want. We don't 244 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 3: know how those twenty eight pitches in the first outing 245 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 3: affected his body. You're throwing it at a different intensity, 246 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 3: a different form of adrenaline through all of those, so 247 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 3: maybe you know they felt all right, we're going to 248 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 3: scale it back a little bit. The fact is he's 249 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 3: still got the job done. He still looked great, and 250 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 3: then he still drove in fifty five thousand runs, So 251 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 3: show Heyo Tani. However, they decide that this is going 252 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 3: to play itself out. I trust, I trust his process 253 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 3: because it's never been done before, so you have to 254 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 3: kind of trust what they're doing. 255 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I'm not mad at it. 256 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 4: As of right now. 257 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 5: It's just bonus pitches for show hey, or bonus outings 258 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 5: for us, because we were anticipating him joining this team 259 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 5: a month from now instead of now. 260 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 4: So whatever they. 261 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 5: Can get out of him to continue kind of building up, 262 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 5: it's probably fine. One more thing before we do take 263 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 5: a break. I wanted to talk about the key K 264 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 5: Hernandez pitching thing, like it feels a little more gimmicky 265 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 5: now than helpful. And I would say, look him going 266 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 5: out to the bullpen, I think, I think, I think 267 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 5: key K going out to. 268 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 4: The bullpen is where you kind of lose me. 269 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 5: Now, You're it's I don't know, he's he's trying to 270 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 5: make it a show instead of just getting the job done, 271 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 5: and he hasn't got the job done the last couple 272 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 5: of outings. 273 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you're saying, you're, I don't know that. 274 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 3: It's I don't know that Keyk's making it a show. 275 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 3: I don't know that it's like, you know, hey, let 276 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 3: me let me go out there and warm up in 277 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 3: the bullpen. You know, I don't think the Dodgers. 278 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 4: No, Dave didn't know. 279 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 5: Dave did not know that was Keik's decision to go 280 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 5: out to the bullpen to warm up. 281 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 3: I mean that's well, if that's if that's the case, 282 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 3: that's a little silly, you know again, I. 283 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 4: Am nothing against Kik but no. 284 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 3: I look, pitching position players. Pitching is annoying anyway, but 285 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 3: they've done it when they've had the lead, and that's 286 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 3: super annoying too. And now this going onto the bullpen 287 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 3: does seem a little You're the Los Angeles Dodgers. You're 288 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 3: not the Savannah Bananas, you know what I mean, like, 289 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 3: and you would expect that type of stuff and those 290 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 3: antics in a Savannah Banana situation, but not this. I 291 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 3: mean where the Dodgers stopped. 292 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll say, our our buddy I am, unsurprisingly, our 293 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 5: buddy Richie Flores is, for love of God. 294 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 4: No more Kika on the mound, save us.

We are almost halfway 329 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 3: at the halfway point of the Major League Baseball season. 330 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 3: What is your grade so far for this club? 331 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: I guess what The Dodgers are always grading on that 332 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: curve of expectations, because it's not is the team good 333 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 2: this year? It's are they gonna win the World Series? 334 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: So right now it's probably a B plus. They're a 335 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 2: really good team. They're in first place in the toughest 336 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 2: division of baseball. Do they look like they're gonna win 337 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 2: the World Series right now? Probably not, But the trading 338 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 2: deadline hasn't come. We'll see what they do, We'll see 339 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: what other teams do. And of course for the Dodgers, 340 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 2: it is always the story of injured pitchers and how 341 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 2: they come back. 342 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a good question because we've had that conversation 343 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 5: a lot here on the show. It's are they gonna 344 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 5: kind of stand pat and wait for some of these 345 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 5: guys to come back? Or is it gonna be more 346 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 5: of a what Andrew Freeman does not want to do? 347 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 5: And of course he just dropped a column I think 348 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 5: last week with words from Freeman about his still hope 349 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 5: to not be active at the trade line, what is 350 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 5: your baseball gut telling you about what the team will 351 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 5: need to do in about a month and change. 352 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: I don't think they know for sure right now, and 353 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: that's because again it's the injured pitchers. So when I 354 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 2: talked to Andrew about this last week, I think the 355 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: first thing a lot of fans think of as left field, 356 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 2: because the Dodgers are above average at every position offensively 357 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 2: except left field. And they've given Michael Conforto a lot 358 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 2: of runway, as Dave Roberts would like to say, and 359 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 2: he just hasn't delivered. But you know, they're still in 360 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 2: first place, so there's still that chance. Hassan Kim has 361 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 2: given the Dodgers an incredible option to work guys all 362 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 2: around the diamond, because of course, any Andrew Friedman team 363 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: has guys that can play all around the diamond. So 364 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 2: at least my sense for Andrew Friedman is they're not 365 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 2: really interested in making a move in left field pitching. 366 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: They want to see what happens with Tyler Glass now 367 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: and Blake Snell. They think both guys can be back 368 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 2: on the mound by the trading deadline, and I imagine 369 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 2: that would give you a pretty good idea then of 370 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 2: what you need to do. But you know, when Andrews 371 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 2: said in the off season, we want to get enough 372 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 2: pitching depth. 373 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 1: So we don't have to go out in the market 374 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: in July, they don't know about that. And the other thing, 375 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 1: and Andrew. 376 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 2: Didn't talk as much about this, but you guys know, 377 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 2: this was a bullpen that was supposed to be Blake 378 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,479 Speaker 2: trying in Evan Phillips, Michael Kopek at the back end. 379 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 2: Kopek just came back trying in still out, Phillips out 380 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: for the season. And then of course Tanner Scott, who 381 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 2: they paid a lot of money to in free agency, 382 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,919 Speaker 2: has been healthy all year, hasn't been as effective as 383 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 2: the Dodgers would have liked. And that's an area you 384 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 2: can always get an improvement in. At the deadline, there 385 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 2: are always teams looking at trade relievers. So I would 386 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 2: think pitching area, for sure is where our focus. 387 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 3: Bill, you had said yourself that the NL West is 388 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 3: the toughest division in baseball. Right now, the Dodgers hold 389 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 3: a lead, albeit slide of three and a half. Who 390 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 3: is the biggest competitor in your mind, the biggest threat 391 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 3: in the division and for the more the biggest threat 392 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: to them in the National League. 393 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 2: Well, as much as our friends in San Francisco are 394 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 2: not going to want to hear this, I think the 395 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 2: Padres are still the biggest threat. They were the biggest 396 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 2: threat to the Dodgers last year. They were the best 397 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 2: team the Dodgers played last October. But the Padres also 398 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 2: are afflicted by pitching injuries and they don't have the 399 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 2: resources the Dodgers have to just go out and get 400 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 2: whoever they want. Aj Preller has done a tremendous job 401 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 2: in making trades. He is willing to give up a 402 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 2: lot of top prospects where Andrew Friedman and most guys 403 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 2: in his position are not. 404 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: But how many of those top. 405 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 2: Prospects are left after the last couple of years. So 406 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 2: I think for the Padres, Michael King is out with 407 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 2: the pinch nerve. They don't know when he's going to 408 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 2: come back. You Darvish has been sort of working to 409 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: get back all season, but they have no idea when 410 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 2: that might actually happen. If those guys are back, I 411 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 2: think it's a much different decision in terms of who 412 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 2: you like in the division, because right now now, if 413 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 2: the Padres are playing out the season with what they 414 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 2: got now, with injured starting pitchers and getting no offensive 415 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 2: contribution from left field and catcher, you gotta say the Dodgers. 416 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 5: You know, we just saw a fairly spicy series between 417 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 5: those two ball clubs. Here in Los Angeles. You know, 418 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 5: we have a lot of conversation about Dodgers Padres rivalry, 419 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 5: and you know, whatever side people fall on, it's either 420 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 5: not a rivalry because it's not the Giants, or it 421 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,199 Speaker 5: is a rivalry because they actively hate each other right now, 422 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 5: or at least they play it real well on TV. 423 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 5: Shout out Mike Schild and Dave Roberts in particular. But 424 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 5: what is your thoughts, What are your thoughts on how 425 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,840 Speaker 5: the Dodgers Padres rivalry has changed over the years, over 426 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 5: the last half decade and kind of shifted from the 427 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 5: traditional Dodgers Giants rivalry. 428 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: I think in the. 429 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 2: Beginning it was sort of the Podres declaring that there 430 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 2: was a rivalry before there actually was one. Just going 431 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: out and spending money on a lot of players doesn't 432 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 2: make it a rivalry. But when you have the kind 433 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: of games that you mentioned, the teams have just played, 434 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 2: not only in the past couple of weeks, but for 435 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 2: the past couple of years you get to meet in October. 436 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 2: Those are the kinds of things that make for a rivalry, 437 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,479 Speaker 2: And except for one fluke year, the Giants haven't been 438 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 2: in October or anywhere close to it the last five years. 439 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: You know, people talk about the Yankees and the Red Sox. 440 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 2: The Red Sox haven't been anywhere close to October for 441 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 2: the most part over the last half a decade. The 442 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 2: Dodgers and the Padres are the teams that have been 443 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 2: going at it, and for my money, it's the best 444 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 2: rivalry in baseball. 445 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 3: Show Hey, Otani, you know him very well because you've 446 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 3: certainly covered the Angels as well. And then you know 447 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 3: Showhy from his time there. Bill, what's been the biggest 448 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 3: change that you've seen between Anaheim Show Hey and Los 449 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 3: Angeles Show Hey? 450 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: He just seems happier. I don't think that's, you know, 451 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 2: any great observation on my part. I'm sure some of 452 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,479 Speaker 2: that is, you know, getting married, having a baby, decoy 453 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 2: the dog, that's all great stuff. But he was pretty 454 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 2: clear in Anaheim that his first priority was to win. 455 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 2: And as much as the Angels talked about how comfortable 456 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 2: he was there, and he was and you know who 457 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 2: doesn't like living, you know, by the beach here in 458 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: Orange County. He wanted to win and the Angels weren't winning. 459 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: They're not winning. 460 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: They don't seem to give the impression that they're going 461 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 2: to win in the near future based on how the 462 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 2: team has been run lately. 463 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: They've got some good young players, but as they. 464 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 2: Found out when they had Otani and Mike Crowd, it 465 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 2: takes more than a couple guys to make a winner. 466 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: Now he's on a team that wins every year, and 467 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: you know he kind of likes it. 468 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 5: Winning is fun. Breaking news, Winning is fun. We just 469 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 5: learned from Bill Shaking here Ah Dodger's territory Bill. Just 470 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 5: before you joined us. We were talking about Keiky Hernandez 471 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 5: and positioned player pitching and kind of I don't know, 472 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 5: there is a narrative that it's getting a little out 473 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 5: of hand. I think my buddy Jeff Snyder says it 474 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 5: where MLB put a rule in which gives people the 475 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 5: ability to use that rule where you know, you can 476 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 5: put a player in when you're up a certain or 477 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 5: down a certain amount. What's kind of your taste on 478 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 5: the position players pitching and is it good for baseball, 479 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 5: bad for baseball? 480 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 4: What are your thoughts? 481 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,199 Speaker 1: I think it's getting kind of tired. 482 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 2: You know, it was a novelty when we first had it, because, 483 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 2: oh my god, the team's losing twenty to two, and look, 484 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 2: the third basement is pitching and you never see that, 485 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 2: but you now you see it. 486 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:22,400 Speaker 1: All the time. 487 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,879 Speaker 2: And MLB did put in a rule about, all right, 488 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 2: there has to be so big a margin in the 489 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: game before you can even use a position player. But 490 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 2: that hasn't stopped, and you know, it's kind of crazy. 491 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 2: There were plenty of years where teams had ten man 492 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 2: pitching staffs and they didn't need to use position players. 493 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 2: Now they've got thirteen man staffs, and of course every 494 00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 2: team cycles guys between the miners and the majors much 495 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 2: more rapidly than they ever would have back when there 496 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 2: were ten man staffs, and pretty much the only way 497 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 2: you got sent up or down is if you got 498 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 2: hurt or you just were, you know, really awful. 499 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: There's no need for that today. 500 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 2: I mean, the Dodgers had it day off right the 501 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 2: day after Kik pitch. Come on, nobody can give you 502 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 2: before a day off you're not killing your ball bit. 503 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 3: Clayton Kershaw continues to be unbelievably impressive, regardless of whether 504 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 3: he's an ace now or you know, the fourth guy 505 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 3: on the staff bill. You've covered him his entire career. 506 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 3: He's close to another milestone, achieving career strikeout number three thousand. 507 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 3: How would you describe Clayton's legacy as a Dodger when 508 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 3: he does finally retire. What will you remember about him 509 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 3: the most? 510 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 2: I think just how serious he was. There are a 511 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 2: lot of guys who you come in and you guys 512 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 2: have seen this too. They're happy, they're joking around, they're 513 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 2: getting ready for the game in whatever way works for them, 514 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 2: and not everybody can be the same way. But Clayton 515 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 2: is just so dedicated into his routine every five days. 516 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 2: It's not as if he just has his routine plan 517 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 2: for the day that he starts. He's got it minute 518 00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 2: to minute planned all five days before the start, and 519 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 2: he's done a lot of things. I think people forget 520 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 2: now that his career has gone so long that might 521 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 2: not have been in the best interest of his career. 522 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 2: And I bring it up only because we have had 523 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 2: recently the stories about Rafael Devers and what he would 524 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 2: or would not do for the Red Sox. And remember 525 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 2: all those years in the playoffs and Clayton was pitching 526 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 2: on three days rest to save the Dodgers. I mean, 527 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 2: that wasn't the best thing for his career. Unfortunately, as 528 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 2: we all know, the results were not the greatest most 529 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 2: of the time. Fortunately for Clayton, he got through that. 530 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 2: The Dodgers won the World Series. Then they won the 531 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 2: World Series again. So no one, thank God, can ever 532 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 2: say that. You know, Clayton Kershaw somehow stood in the 533 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 2: way of the Dodgers winning the World Series, but he 534 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 2: gave everything he had. He continues to do that. And look, 535 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 2: he was never blessed. I mean he was not one 536 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 2: of these ninety nine mile an hour fastball guys. He 537 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 2: learned how to pitch. He go had that great curveball, 538 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: but you know, he struggled with his other pitchers over 539 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 2: the years. He'll be the first to tell you that. 540 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 2: And now he's pitching at a speed where most guys 541 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 2: don't survive in Major League Baseball, and he's not only 542 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 2: figured out how to do it, he's been pretty good 543 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 2: at it. And that's an amazing tribute because again, most 544 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 2: guys don't last this long, and they certainly don't last 545 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 2: this long, changing up what they do midstream. 546 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, eighteenth season in a Dodger uniform. Next stop for 547 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 3: him when he's done is Cooperstown. Bill before we let 548 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 3: you go, I'm interested in your take because you cover 549 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 3: all things, not just what's happening on the field. Mark Walter, 550 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 3: the Dodgers' primary owner with Guggenheim, purchased the majority stake 551 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 3: in the Los Angeles Lakers for the fine tune of 552 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 3: ten billion with a B. How, if at all, does 553 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 3: that impact his ownership with the Dodgers. 554 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna impact it a whole lot. 555 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna impact the Lakers a lot because 556 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 2: one of the things we saw when Mark and his 557 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 2: group bought the Dodgers was that, you know, it wasn't 558 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 2: like the Dodgers were terrible. They were pretty good and 559 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 2: they needed some work. But the new ownership came in 560 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 2: and said, we're gonna watch and see what's happening here 561 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 2: and then we'll start making changes. 562 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: So, as we all. 563 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 2: Remember, Ned Colletti was the general manager then first full 564 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 2: season under Goggenheim, Ned's general manager, they win the division. 565 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 2: Things are pretty good, right, But in Mark Walters world, 566 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 2: we want to be the best that we can. And 567 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 2: they spare no expense to not only put the best 568 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,200 Speaker 2: players on the field, but pay for the best executives, 569 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 2: pay for the best clubhouses, pay for two team planes 570 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 2: if the team wants that instead of one, pay for 571 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,959 Speaker 2: nutritionists in the minor leagues when most teams would never 572 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 2: have even thought of that. 573 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: There's all sorts of stuff they do. It costs money, 574 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: it pays off. 575 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 2: Certainly, the Dodgers are not losing money, but I think 576 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 2: what happened with the Lakers, and I'm sure Stan Casten 577 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: will be involved in some way. He was president of 578 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: the Atlanta Braves and the Atlanta Hawks at the same time. 579 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 2: I'm sure, of course Erick Johnson will be involved in 580 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 2: some way. But I think you'll see a much bigger 581 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 2: front office and also a much greater emphasis on people 582 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 2: who are just the best in the business and not 583 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 2: people who have been there the longest or have a 584 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 2: relationship with the team, Because ultimately you want to win, 585 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 2: and Mark senet to win, and much to his credit, 586 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 2: what he does is find the best people he can 587 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 2: find Dodgers were after Andrew Friedman for a while before 588 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 2: they got him. And give them the resources they say 589 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 2: they need, and then as long as they're producing, stay 590 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 2: out of the way. 591 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: And I think we all know there are owners in 592 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: sports who do not behave like that. 593 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 2: They get involved in player personnel, they think they know 594 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 2: which trades to make, and they don't want to fund things. 595 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 2: I mean, here's something with the Dodgers that you guys 596 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 2: have seen this year is the Dodgers called up guys 597 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:52,360 Speaker 2: from the minor. 598 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: Leagues who they did not actually use. 599 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 2: They called up guys to just sit on the taxi 600 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,199 Speaker 2: squad just in case they decided to put some one 601 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 2: else on injured list. There are many owners in all sports, 602 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 2: so you'd say, yeah, boss, I want to pay a 603 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: lot of money to fly these guys into town to 604 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 2: sit there and maybe we'll use them and maybe we won't. 605 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: That doesn't happen often, and it's the Dodger's credit that 606 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: things like that. 607 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 2: You hear about seven hundred mil for show Aotani, but 608 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 2: it's little things like that that help the Dodgers succeed 609 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 2: day in and day out. 610 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: And I'm sure you'll be seeing things like that with 611 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 1: the Lakers. 612 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 5: We got a chat or a comment in our chat 613 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,280 Speaker 5: saying can he also buy the Kings too? 614 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 4: Let's do baby steps. 615 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 5: Maybe ten years down the road, Guggenheim and Mark Walter 616 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 5: can buy the Los Angeles Kings. But Bill, we appreciate 617 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 5: the time. Make sure you guys give Bill shake and 618 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 5: a follow.

He's probably live tonight nine pm Pacific 675 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 5: time for some off day Dodgers talk Dodgers off today, 676 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 5: like I just said, and they start a series in 677 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 5: the evil confines of Coors Field in Colorado, a ballpark 678 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 5: hate I don't hate any ballpark more than I hate 679 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 5: Corrs Field, but the Dodgers unfortunately have to play there 680 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 5: a few times a year. We have a Kershaw game 681 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 5: in there, a Yamamoto game, and maybe a bullpen game 682 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 5: against well all of Colorado's worst pitchers, which is literally 683 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 5: anybody that pitches in Colorado. 684 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 4: What do you need to see in this series? Wow? 685 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I've been pretty rough on the Colorado Rockies, 686 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 3: but you just went to town on them. You took 687 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 3: them out behind the woodshed and just shot them all. Yeah. 688 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 3: So Colorado is a tough place to pitch. But here's 689 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 3: my take on what I need to see in Colorado. 690 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 3: We need to see Freddy Mooki and Tao get right. 691 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 3: That's a great place to get right right. That's a 692 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 3: place that everyone is running to. The batracks cint like 693 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 3: everybody wants to get in that box and hit. It's 694 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 3: not just the home runs, it's not just the air 695 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 3: that's less dense. It's the fact that those gaps there 696 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: are huge. There's a lot of extra base hit opportunities 697 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,479 Speaker 3: in a course field. So I'm gonna say the Dodgers 698 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:19,479 Speaker 3: need a sweep because the Colorado Rockies are horrific. They 699 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 3: can sweep Freddy, Yeah, Freddy, MOOKI and Tayo need to 700 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 3: get right. And what is your prediction on the total 701 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 3: number of runs between two teams over the three game series? 702 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 4: You know, let's just go insane. 703 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 5: I'm gonna say forty five runs between the two teams 704 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 5: over these three games, because why not? 705 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 4: That's probably too many. Now, no, it's it's cores, it's Coors. 706 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 4: But I agree with you. 707 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 5: We need to see some players find some grass. Some 708 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 5: Dodgers players top of the lineup. 709 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 4: Get right. 710 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 5: This is a get right. This is your this is 711 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 5: your practice girl. Right here, go get right boys, And 712 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 5: then Kansas City you get right again. Although Kansas City 713 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 5: a lot better than the Colorado Rockies, but then again, 714 00:32:58,480 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 5: I might be able to particular. 715 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 3: This is like your your starter marriage, your first marriage, 716 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 3: like your starter house before you move into your dream house? 717 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: Oh is that? 718 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 3: Am I the only one that did that? Oh? Okay, cool, 719 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 3: that's fine, all right. I don't yeah, because you refuse 720 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 3: to get married.
