1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: I think it is a good contract for Tao. I 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: think it is a good contract for Los Angeles. I 3 00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: don't feel that they are overpaying him. I don't feel 4 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 1: that they are undervaluing him. So I think it's a 5 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:21,800 Speaker 1: good spot. Good Monday afternoon to everybody in Dodgers Territory land. 6 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: We are happy that you are here.

Again not official by the team, but 29 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: you know who made it official, Clint Taoscar Hernandez. I mean, 30 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: at least if you read between the emojis, that's what 31 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: it's saying. 32 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 2: On foul Territory. 33 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: We posted what ta Oscar just posted on his Instagram story, 34 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm back. 35 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: I sent him a text. 36 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: I said, congratulations, Felici that is, he said, thank you. 37 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: So I'm going to go with he's going back. I'm 38 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: going to say he's back with the Los Angeles Dodgers, 39 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: my friend, that. 40 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 3: The prayers are answered. 41 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 4: We were at a point this offseason where we were 42 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 4: starting to get a little worried. I was starting to 43 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 4: get a little antsy. Understanding, Listen, we were surviving the 44 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 4: holidays and all of that. You have to kind of 45 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 4: let these people go and live their lives. He is 46 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 4: a World Series champion, probably goes back home, parties, hangs 47 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 4: out with family, and then comes back and says, let's 48 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 4: get this deal done. Whoever made the deal happen, thank you, 49 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 4: thank you, because this Dodgers' outfield suddenly looks so much better. 50 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 4: The Dodgers' lineup suddenly has their cleanup hitter back, and 51 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 4: again we're happy. It's a great way, a great late 52 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 4: Christmas present, and a great way to look ahead to 53 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 4: the twenty twenty five season knowing that Tao's going to 54 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 4: be in the lineup. Then he's going to be in 55 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 4: the lineup in twenty twenty six, and look at the 56 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 4: fans also happy. We also had a mural popping up 57 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 4: featuring tay Oscar Hernandez in Los Angeles. 58 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 3: You love to see that. 59 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: I love the. 60 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: Fact that he got the deal hopefully that he wanted. 61 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: I know there was some conversation about is it money, 62 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: is it deal terms, is it deferred money? What is 63 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: the situation? But I'm okay with the three year, sixty 64 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: six million dollar deal. When we were on our show 65 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: the last time, I said three years, sixty sixty five 66 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: seventy I was even okay with going to seventy million, 67 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: sixty six million dollars for Taoscar Hernandez. I think is 68 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: a very fair contract. I think it is a good 69 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: contract for Tao. I think it is a good contract 70 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,679 Speaker 1: for Los Angeles. I don't feel that they are overpaying him. 71 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: I don't feel that they are undervaluing him. So I 72 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 1: think it's a good spot. And he's back. We knew 73 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: he wanted to come back. And you're right, man, that 74 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: outfield is so much better than it was, you know, 75 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: a week ago, and that lineup is so much better 76 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: than it was a week ago when he was still 77 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: out there on the open market. 78 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, when we're talking deal too, Like I initially, entering 79 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 4: this offseason, I thought the market would be a little 80 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 4: bit higher for him. I thought it was gonna be 81 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 4: closer to like a three to eighty eighty one million 82 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 4: something like that. Maybe seeing Tao kind of making the 83 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 4: pocket of Freddie Freeman money, some people got really upset 84 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 4: at that idea. I think he maybe should have could 85 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 4: have got more. But it's a good deal for both sides. 86 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 4: We know ta Oskar bet on himself off season ultimately 87 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 4: kind of signs, you know, lands a four year, eighty 88 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 4: nine million dollars almost ninety year, a ninety million dollar deal. 89 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 4: So it is good money. I will take it. In 90 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 4: the heartbeat and that fourth year option, which kind of 91 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 4: acts as a fifth year option. Not really, but the 92 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 4: fourth year option is really really good, and I think 93 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 4: that was one of the many little. 94 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 3: Hang ups or whatever. But we don't need to worry 95 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 3: about that. 96 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 4: Alls we need to worry about is the Dodgers telling us, hey, 97 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 4: we have a press conference and or do somebody people 98 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: come on down. 99 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 3: I really hope they do. 100 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 4: That, by the way, like, don't just make it think. 101 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: I think they will clan. But I think that the 102 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: front office. Again, as you mentioned, these are people first 103 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: before their front office folk. They're people before they're athletes. 104 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: I did send Andrew Friedman, our guy, a text. I said, 105 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: could I have you on the show today? He said, 106 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: I'm on vacation. I said, okay, thank you, thank. 107 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 2: You so much. 108 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 1: So I do hope to get Andrew Friedman on the show. 109 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: I do hope to get ta Oscar on the show. 110 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: He did commit to coming on. We just have to 111 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: figure out logistics in the date for Tao to include 112 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: us not only here on Dodgers territory, but he's going 113 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: to appear on Foul Territory with the guys as well. 114 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: But I have to say, I'm so sick and tired 115 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 2: of people. 116 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: On the interweb, on the Google machine, if you will, 117 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,679 Speaker 1: talking about the fact that the Dodgers are ruining baseball again. 118 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 2: No, they're not. 119 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: The Dodgers, yes, make a lot of money, okay, but 120 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: the Dodgers also give back a lot of money in 121 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: the revenue sharing portion of the thing to teams that 122 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: don't have the same quote unquote revenue opportunities. So while 123 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: they make a lot of money and they can defer 124 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 1: a lot of money, and they can sign a lot 125 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: of players to these big contracts, they also put a 126 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: lot back into the pot. 127 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 2: And I think Jeff Passon had a good point too. 128 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 3: Do you not listen? Listen? 129 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 4: One hundred and three million dollars the Dodgers paid the 130 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 4: most in baseball towards rev sharing for the twenty twenty 131 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 4: four season. You pay that anytime, but listen. What Jeff 132 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 4: Passon said is is absolutely true. You pay the money. 133 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: You put your money where your mouth is. They reward 134 00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 4: this organization or sorry, this fan base for coming out, 135 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 4: for showing out, for buying Dodger dogs and Mitchellatta's paying 136 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 4: insane prices to the park in the Dodger stadium parking lot. 137 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 3: This is what you get. 138 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 4: You get the reward of Taoskar coming back show Hey 139 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 4: o Tani being a Dodger for nine more years. And 140 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 4: there was another thing too that passing. You know, had 141 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 4: kind of gotten a little bit of a Twitter beef 142 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 4: with somebody because you know, obviously you get this. We 143 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,880 Speaker 4: know there's deferrals, we know there's a signing bonus, and 144 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 4: people you know, boohooing about the Dodger signing a contract 145 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 4: with deferrals. Every team is allowed to do it. The 146 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 4: Dodgers aren't the only one that can do it. And hey, 147 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 4: the next thing we're going to talk about in a 148 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 4: minute or two, Corbyn Byrns signed with Diamondbacks, got himself 149 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 4: a little bit of a deferral in that contract as well. 150 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 4: But before we get through all of that, listen, we 151 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 4: got the main move we wanted done. Do you think 152 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 4: the Dodgers are done with this offseason or what else 153 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 4: could be on the table. 154 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: The only thing that that would really make me happy 155 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: as like a complete you know, bow on a really 156 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 1: great Christmas pathckage, is to get the other Hernandez back. 157 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: I would love to see key Key Hernandez back in 158 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: a Dodger uniform. Is it going to bring as much 159 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: fanfare as Taoscar No? But is he a critical piece, 160 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: in my opinion, to really making an unbelievable team that 161 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: much better. Yeah, I do believe so what I like 162 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: Roki Sazaki, maybe, but I do think we have enough 163 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: of a great pitching staff with the exception of Walker 164 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: Buler going to Boston. 165 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 2: But I understand. 166 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: I do think our pitching staff is going to be okay, 167 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 1: good enough to get to where they want to be. Obviously, 168 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: where it depends on where we're at at the trade deadline, right, 169 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: and then you just got to get in October and 170 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: you got to figure it out from there. But if 171 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: they could sign Key Key Hernandez and I think Kik 172 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: wants to come back to you. He said that himself. 173 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: That to me would mean the Dodgers won the off season. 174 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: And that is with the fact that the Yankee sign 175 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: Max Freed, the Diamondback's got Corbyn Burns. I mean, remember 176 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: the Dodgers got Blake'snell. That seems like a thousand years ago, 177 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: But that would make me happy. Do you think that 178 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: they are done? And if they're not done, what are 179 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: they eyeing right now. 180 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 3: They are not done. 181 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 4: What they're eyeing right now has to be some trades 182 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 4: because the forty man roster is at forty with the 183 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 4: Taoscar Hernandez signing, and maybe he's forty one. 184 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 3: I think he was. He was the fortieth. 185 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 4: So if they want to bring back Key k Hernandez, 186 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 4: they're going to need a roster spot for Key k Hernandez. 187 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 4: At some point, they're going to need a roster spot 188 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 4: for Clayton Kershaw, who says he's coming back. They say 189 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 4: he's coming back. We're just wading through that. Maybe that 190 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 4: happens in spring training when the sixty day injured list 191 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 4: does open. But I wouldn't be surprised to see them working, 192 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 4: you know, behind the scenes on some sort of you 193 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 4: know move to improve the roster, as they always do 194 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 4: through the trade you know, the trade waiver wire, not 195 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 4: waiver wire, but through the trade circuit. 196 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 3: I don't know, I can't think. 197 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 4: Of the word I'm looking for here, But anyways, they're 198 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 4: trying to find a trade. Maybe it's moving Chris Taylor. 199 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 4: Maybe it's moving Gavin Lux because we've heard both of 200 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 4: these names kind of thrown around. Maybe it's just moving 201 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 4: somebody that's lower on the roster to try to maximize 202 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 4: some sort of value out of him. But we need 203 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 4: to open some roster space before you can add a 204 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 4: little bit more. If they do land Roki Sasaki, that 205 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 4: would be a phenomenal move. 206 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 3: That would that would be what. 207 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 4: Everybody kind of expects to happen, Roki Susaki eventually landing 208 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 4: with the Dodgers. But we know they need a kik 209 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 4: A and they need probably one more reliever. If that's 210 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 4: not Tanner Scott, it's going to be somebody through that 211 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 4: that you know on the trade market, and it could 212 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 4: maybe it's a Ryan Helsley. We know Saint Louis wants 213 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 4: to cut some some payroll. There's some moves, there's some 214 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 4: opportunity out there. So I think that's where Andrew Freeman 215 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 4: is busy, where this front office is busy. They're looking 216 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 4: to move some pieces that maybe you might shock us 217 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 4: a little bit, but they're not done. 218 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 3: We're far from done. 219 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: Tanner Scott would shock me at this point. And I 220 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,599 Speaker 1: have to say that if the if opening day was tomorrow, 221 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: I'm still pretty psyched about this roster. Do I want 222 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: pick a one thousand percent? What I love to see 223 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: Roki Sasaki in their rotation obviously, but if if this 224 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: is it, if we go to sleep tonight, opening days tomorrow, 225 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: I'm okay. I'm okay with this roster construction and the 226 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: lineup that we have at the moment. But again, there's 227 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 1: some other teams in the NL West, Clint, that are 228 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: making some moves. It's not just the mighty Dodgers. How 229 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: about the next segment. Let's get to the mound visit. 230 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 3: Let's do it good. I'll give it you feel good. 231 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: Four. 232 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 3: That's up there. 233 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 2: God rest his soul. Great Tier. Florida is the best. 234 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: So now the Dodgers are going to have to face 235 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: a mighty big arm. They've seen him before, obviously when 236 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: he was in the NL Central with the Milwaukee Brewers, 237 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,599 Speaker 1: but now the Los Angeles Dodgers Clint, are going to 238 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: have to face arguably the biggest piece on the market 239 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 1: in terms of pitchers, in Corbin Burns six years, two 240 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: hundred and ten million. After a very quiet winter Arizona 241 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: really without Blake, Sell got the best picture on the 242 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: market and now they're going to have to see him 243 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: a long time. And this rotation for the Diamondbacks just 244 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: got a hell of a lot better. And it was 245 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: already good if you look at what they had Zach Gallon, 246 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: Meryl Kelly, at Wardo Rodriguez, who remember didn't want to 247 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: come to the Dodgers, said no on the on the 248 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 1: trade to the Dodgers, Jordan Montgomery, who said, you know what, 249 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 1: I'm going to stick it to you, Ken Kendrick, and 250 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to opt in. 251 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 2: I'm going to take that offer. Go ahead. And then 252 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 2: Brandon Fought. 253 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: Who obviously is a young guy but has some postseason experience. Now, 254 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: this may not be their opening day roster, this might 255 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: be a trade piece. Meryl Kelly, who knows, they might 256 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: trade him just to free up some salary. 257 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: But holy moly, the d Back's rotation is very good. 258 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, this was a great move. 259 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 4: This was I would argue, of any of the moves 260 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 4: we've seen so far this offseason, this one was very 261 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 4: much out of left field. You did not expect to 262 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 4: see Corbyn Burns. You did not expect to see the 263 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 4: Diamondbacks playing at that level two hundred, you know, million 264 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 4: dollar level. They haven't played that high since, you know, 265 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 4: adding Zach Greenke, stealing Granky from. 266 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 3: The Dodgers all those years ago. But this is great. 267 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 4: And what did Dino Eble tell us when he came 268 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 4: on the show, you know, a month or so ago. 269 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 4: He said, one of the things that he feels helped 270 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 4: this Dodgers team win the World Series was playing meaningful 271 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 4: baseball all the way through the season, all the way 272 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,719 Speaker 4: into September, trying to make sure they secured that NL 273 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 4: West Division crown, keeping teams in the NL West good, 274 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 4: making it stay the NL best. That helps the Dodgers. 275 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 4: And yet you don't want to see the competition, you know, 276 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 4: get better. I understand that a lot of fans don't. 277 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 4: But remember what happened in twenty three. Remember what happened 278 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 4: in twenty two. Dodgers cruise their way to another division 279 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 4: crown and they stumble. 280 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 3: In the first round. 281 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 4: I really like this move, even if it's going against 282 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 4: the Dodgers. Great move for the Arizona Diamondbacks and great 283 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 4: move for the Dodgers to have another ace, another great 284 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 4: pitcher to have to face while getting ready for hopefully 285 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 4: another World Series run. 286 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't need to have a heart attack 287 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: in the DS every year. I could. I could deal 288 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 1: with you know, a little bit of a smoother ride. 289 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: But I completely understand what you're saying about. If you 290 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: want to be the best, you have to beat the best, 291 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: and having that constant competition. When you see these guys 292 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: eighteen nineteen times a season or whatever it is, that 293 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: can only be good for the Dodgers. That can only 294 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 1: be good for the Dodgers position players and good for 295 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:15,559 Speaker 1: Corbyn Burns. Six years, two hundred and ten million. The 296 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: guy gets to stay home. His wife just had twins. 297 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: They're from Arizona. God bless them. The tax breaks in Arizona. 298 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 1: You know what, Again, we have to remember these guys 299 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 1: are people before their players. Maybe he didn't want to 300 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: be on the East coast, maybe Baltimore didn't extend them 301 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: a ridiculous offer. Maybe you know, maybe it just Arizona 302 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: made sense for him. 303 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 2: And they have a good team and they have a 304 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 2: good rotation. 305 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 1: They have a really good front office, they have a 306 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: good culture, and I love their manager. I mean, I 307 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: don't know, do you think the Diamondbacks now, Clint, with 308 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: where we stand again opening days tomorrow, do they have 309 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: the best starting rotation. 310 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 2: In the division. 311 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 3: I don't. 312 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 4: I don't want to feel like a Homer but I 313 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 4: don't know. Looking on paper, I still think the Dodgers 314 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 4: are just better. They have guys that have been there 315 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 4: in the World Series. I'm sure the Diamondbacks do as well, 316 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 4: but they've been there to the World Series, competed in 317 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 4: the World Series with with Yamamoto. Glass Now's been there. 318 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 4: Adding Blake Snell to the top of that rotation, at 319 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 4: some point there will be a Clayton Kershaw in the mix. 320 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 4: I just I like those arms. I like the Dodgers rotation. 321 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 4: I mean it's super close. It's super close, for sure, 322 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 4: but there's more. There's more talent in the Dodgers rotation 323 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 4: than there is in the Arizona Diamondbacks. Again, very tight, 324 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 4: very tight. 325 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's very close. I think it's one 326 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: one A. I can see you pick in you know, 327 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: both sides. Yeah, if you throw it up there. Again, 328 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: thanks for doing that just for visual purposes. I'm a 329 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: visual learner. But I mean, you think about the fact 330 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: that they had Zach Gellon and Meryl Kelly and Jordan 331 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: Montgomery and again, like I said, Brandon fought young kid, 332 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: but experience already in the postseason, and they have a 333 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 1: really good lineup. I mean, you know, they don't have 334 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: Christian Walker anymore in that lineup, but you know that's 335 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: that's okay. 336 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 2: Corbyn Burns is. 337 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,600 Speaker 1: Obviously a very very nice addition to what is happening 338 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: with the Arizona Diamondbacks. So again, they're spending money as well. 339 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: I think they went into the season last year at 340 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy million. That's the highest payroll that 341 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: they've had and now they just dropped two hundred and 342 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: ten on one guy over the course of the next 343 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: six years. 344 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 2: Good for them. 345 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 4: So a question I have for you here is are 346 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 4: the Diamondbacks now the clear second best in the nl 347 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 4: wes because the Padres have been very good? 348 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 3: We were afraid. 349 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 4: You were definitely afraid of the Padres entering last year, 350 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 4: last year's postseason. Everybody has to give you shit for saying, hey, 351 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 4: the Padres might beat the Dodgers. For picking with your 352 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 4: smarts instead of just saying the Dodgers are going to win. 353 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 4: Are did the Diamondbacks leap frog the Padres? 354 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 2: I don't know. 355 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: I don't know about that, and I know everyone's pissed 356 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: off every time I go against the Dodgers. It's not 357 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: like I don't want the Dodgers to win, but realistically, 358 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: I mean an asked Dave Roberts, ask Andrew Friedman, that 359 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: was a very difficult series to win against the San 360 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: Diego Padres, and I said on our show, if they 361 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: get past the padres Is, they will go to the 362 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: World Series. And they did and they won, and I 363 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: agreed to shave my head and I didn't have to 364 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: because they won the World Series. 365 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 2: So there you have it. 366 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: I think they are a very I think they're a 367 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 1: much better team now than Corbyn Burns. I'm still when 368 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: you have you know, King and a rotation, and you 369 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: have Musgrove who hopefully can come back, and you have 370 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: some of these guys in it. You know, I couldn't 371 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: I forgot his name for a hot second. Dylan sees 372 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: in that rotation, you know they're there. I think they 373 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: have a better lineup than the Diamondbacks do. So I 374 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: still I still kind of give the Padres the edge 375 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: as far as that's concerned, but I love the competition 376 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: and and you know what, the Giants got better too, 377 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: So I don't know what the Rockies are doing, but 378 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: I think four of the five teams in the division 379 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 1: got better, And that's exactly what you want. 380 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 2: You want competitive baseball. 381 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: You don't want to know that you you know, you're 382 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: basically mathematically eliminated in May. 383 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 4: We're still waiting for the Rockies to wake up and 384 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 4: do anything with obviously will never happen. One thing, another 385 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 4: thing that I really love about this whole Corbon Burns 386 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 4: thing was a lot of folks had, you know, the 387 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 4: Dime or sorry, the Giants as the likely destination. We 388 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 4: know they were talking, but once again the Giants they 389 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 4: strike out on a big name free agent like how Tough. 390 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 4: Clearly it wasn't farhands fault. He talked about that boys 391 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 4: on foul. Yeah last week, two weeks ago, it wasn't 392 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 4: farhands fault. What is it that makes the you know, 393 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 4: San Francisco so unappealing to these high dollar free agents. 394 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 1: Well, I think, first of all, I mean again, I'm 395 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: completely just spitballing here. I have the slightest idea. No 396 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: one's come to me asking me to pitch at Oracle Park. 397 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: But if you think about the first of all, the 398 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: taxes in California are fricking brutal okay, number one, and 399 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: you get tax in your home park and you also 400 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:53,479 Speaker 1: get taxed every single place that you play. Even as 401 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: a broadcaster, I had to pay taxes in every city 402 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 1: and every state in which the Dodgers played in. 403 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 2: Okay, so keep that in mind. 404 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 1: So if you're if the majority of your home games 405 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: are in California, that's a big difference. That's why a 406 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: lot of guys prefer to play in Texas. They prefer 407 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,360 Speaker 1: to play in Arizona, because Florida because of the way 408 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: that the you know, the tax implications and those things are. Okay, 409 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: So just because you're in California does not mean you're 410 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: playing in nice weather. 411 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 2: As beautiful as Oracle Park is. 412 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 1: I could not stand when the Dodgers played the Giants 413 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: because it's always freezing. It's always freezing there, and it's 414 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: like those seven twenty starts, the twenty after first pitch starts. 415 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: My god, I swear to God, it's like the wind 416 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: would just pick up off the bay. Now you think 417 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: it's a pitcher's park, So as a picture you probably 418 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 1: want to you want to play there versus a position player. 419 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: You know, LA is not San Francisco so different than. 420 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:48,719 Speaker 2: Los Angeles. 421 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: They're just so so, so so so different. So maybe 422 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 1: that's part of it. Yeah, Weather, I mean, for sure, 423 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: they're very different places, very different cultures and feelings. You know, 424 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: it's not that I mean, San Francisco won three World 425 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 1: Series in a span of you know, ten years, so 426 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: it's not like they're not a winning culture. I'm not 427 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 1: sure why these big free agents are not wanting to 428 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: go there. But that is a good interview with Barham 429 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: Zaiety that he had. We had a couple of weeks 430 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 1: ago with foul Territory. Check it out on the foul 431 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: Territory page because he gave us some really good insight 432 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 1: about what he was kind of looking for, and it 433 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: just didn't It just didn't work out. 434 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. 435 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 4: By the way, we have a poll running on our 436 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 4: live chat right now asking who has the best rotation 437 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 4: in the NLS. Guys, do go ahead and participate that 438 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 4: in that maybe we'll have that be a topic in 439 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 4: a future segment. But I'll spoil it by saying the 440 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 4: Dodgers still have the best rotation. I'll take the Dodgers 441 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 4: lineup over anybody else in the NL West. I'd probably 442 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 4: take that Dodgers lineup over any other team in baseball. 443 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 4: And yes, I am a homer yes, that's a bias take, 444 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 4: but they found lineup for sure, they found something special 445 00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 4: last year together and they just gotta, you know, keep 446 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 4: spinning that forward. 447 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 3: They got to spin that forward. 448 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: I agree. 449 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: And one thing I will say this is that Buster Posey. 450 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: I think even though he doesn't have any sort of 451 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 1: front office experience, he has a really big brain in 452 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 1: between those ears, and I think the Giants will be 453 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: headed in a good direction as long as he surrounds 454 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: himself with people that know what the heck that they're doing, 455 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: because there's no way that he and he doesn't have 456 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: that experience. He's a potential Hall of Fame catcher, but 457 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: he's not President of Baseball operations just yet. But I 458 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: like our squad, Clint, I like our squad. 459 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 3: It's good time. 460 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 4: Hey, we are set up for another great year in 461 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five and be another great year with us 462 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 4: doing another year another season of Dodger's territory.
