1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: I've said it before, this was before the Roki Sasaki signing. 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: I think this team right now is better equipped to 3 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 1: run it back to back than the twenty twenty four 4 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:16,440 Speaker 1: team was, and look at what they accomplished. Hello, everybody, 5 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,600 Speaker 1: it is the freaking weekend and I didn't think it 6 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 1: was going to get better and it just did. Holy Moly, 7 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: Welcome to Dodgers' Territory, y'all. This is going to be 8 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 1: a good and fun show, live and brand new. 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 2: That is Clint to see us, my guy. I am 10 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 2: Alana Rizzo. 11 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: And by the way, we talked about it yesterday on Dodgers' 12 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,959 Speaker 1: Territory with Eric Steven from SB Nation True Blue LA 13 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 1: that we thought Roki Sasaki would have a good chance 14 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: of coming to the Dodgers, and he made it official 15 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:47,520 Speaker 1: himself on Instagram, posting that he signed a minor league 16 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,879 Speaker 1: deal with LA. We all know that Roki Sasaki is 17 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: going to be in the big leagues with the Dodgers. 18 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,959 Speaker 2: But what a beautiful photo. It is official. We can 19 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 2: stop guessing, we can stop wondering. 20 00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 3: Clint. 21 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 2: Here's to the sir. 22 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 1: Congratulations Dodgers Nation, you just got another phenom Japanese picture 23 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: in the rotation. Thank you Andrew Friedman, by the way, cheers, 24 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: cheers to thee. What are your thoughts on this, big guy. 25 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 3: You know, it's tough out here being a Dodgers fan. 26 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,320 Speaker 3: We had to wait all this time to end up 27 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 3: getting Roki. But man, what I said this on my 28 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 3: show earlier, I said it probably way too much because 29 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 3: when you're doing reaction shows sometimes you're just kind of 30 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 3: grasping at straws while things are happening. But my god, 31 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 3: what a great time to be a Dodgers fan. Build 32 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 3: and Andrew Friedman statue already because Andrew Brandon Gomes, they cooked, 33 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 3: they they stayed quiet. We're worried about, you know, the 34 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 3: Padres for a while, you're worried about the Toronto Blue Jays. 35 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: Toronto Blue Jays go out and acquire more international bonus 36 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 3: pool money. Didn't work out once again, they are the 37 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 3: bridesmaid and not the bride. And the Dodgers go out 38 00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: there and get the Japanese Star Prize for the starting rotation. 39 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 3: What a hell of a starting rotation. What's going to be? 40 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 3: Of course, we already have the first look stuff what 41 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 3: Rokie could look like in the uniform, and I sincerely 42 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 3: doubt he's gonna be. 43 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: Just so handsome, my dad, he's gonna be JT's number. 44 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: But you know what so handsome looking in Dodger Blue. 45 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 1: That pantone two ninety four. 46 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 2: By the way, our man Alvaro Garcia, Alvaro. 47 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: Garcia two twenty five, twenty twenty five Rokie of the Year. 48 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: Somebody go ahead and copyright that for Alvaro Garcia, because 49 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,239 Speaker 1: that's some pretty dang good Rokie of the year. 50 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 2: Somebody get on that. Baseball asn't hurry up. It's awesome. 51 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 2: I tell you what. When you look at this starting. 52 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: Rotation clip, Phasius, assuming that we're not going to have 53 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: show hey right at the beginning of the season, which 54 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: that's been pretty well established, you look at it, it's 55 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: still pretty dang good, my friend. You have obviously Blake Snell, massive, 56 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: massive free agent signing, probably the biggest free agent signing 57 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: other than Corbyn Burns when you're talking arms Max Fried 58 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: obviously a trade over to the New York Yankees. But 59 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: you have Blake Snell. You have Yoshi Nobo Yamamoto, you 60 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: have Tyler Glass. Now, oh, by the way, sho hey Otani, 61 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: who obviously will not be ready at the beginning. And 62 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: then you have Roki Sasaki, so you have three Japanese phenoms. 63 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: Then you obviously have two proven, already proven Big leaguers, 64 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: and Tyler Glass now friend of the program. And Blake Snell, 65 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: who I hated pitching or playing against, now psych that 66 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: he's on our team. And again, there's got to be 67 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: somebody that fills the void for show. Hey, perhaps that's 68 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: Dustin May, perhaps that's somebody else. We've talked about that 69 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: at length, but this could arguably be one of the 70 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: best starting rotations ever assembled, just in terms of talent. Again, 71 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: you don't want to say if all is healthy, because 72 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: that never happens, but my goodness, anything can happen over 73 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: a season. But there's potential here to be a top 74 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: five rotation of all time. Alex Fast saying this top 75 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: three an insane amount of depth in that organization. And honestly, Clint, 76 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: all five of these guys are ones. 77 00:03:55,200 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is an absolute just a bounty of aces. 78 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 3: And if you lose one or two along the way, 79 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 3: like we saw last year with all of the injuries, 80 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 3: you could just plug somebody else into the mix. Our 81 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 3: producer marks in in the background here as well. Weird 82 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 3: you don't see Clayton Kershaw in the mix. Of course 83 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 3: this is going to expect it to be a six 84 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 3: man rotation. However, official or unofficial Kersh will be there. 85 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: But you also have you also have a former All 86 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: Star in the mix in Tony Gonslin who will be 87 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 3: coming back from Tommy John surgery. Like you mentioned, Dustin May, 88 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 3: whatever that role may be, he's going to be involved. 89 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 3: Landon Nak who picked up some big innings for this 90 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 3: team last year up to and including in the playoffs 91 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: and in the World Series, and other kids along the way, 92 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,719 Speaker 3: Jackson Ferris ready to go potentially in the minor leagues. 93 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: We saw Ben Casparis, we saw some justin Robleski. There's 94 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 3: a lot of depth. And now let's go back maybe 95 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 3: about ten months from when we first started doing Dodgers territory. 96 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 3: You had a lot of worry. You had a lot 97 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 3: of fear about the Dodger starting rotation. Depth. Now, knowing 98 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: not to say I. 99 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: Think that I think that I think that was warranted 100 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: though that fears coming into twenty twenty four is locally 101 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: warranted because of the injuries and those types of things 102 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: and everything that we were dealing with. I feel very 103 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: very good about this team. I've said it before, this 104 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: was before the Rokie Sasaki signing. I said this yesterday 105 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: on the show. I said, I think our team right now, 106 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 1: our team, like I put it together. I think this 107 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: team right now is better equipped to run it back 108 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: to back than the twenty twenty four team was. And 109 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: look at what they accomplished obviously, so I feel really 110 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: good about this. I mean, again, not proven yet in 111 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: the big leagues, but he has a couple of guys 112 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: around him that he's obviously going to be very comfortable with. 113 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, what is it about Japanese 114 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: talent that you think they want to make the announcement 115 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,799 Speaker 1: on their own? I mean Taoscar Hernandez did it as well. 116 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: I think I think Blake Snell did it too. But 117 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: remember nobody knows anything about sho Hey and then Shohy 118 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: just drops bombs all the time. Oh by the way, 119 00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: I got married. Oh by the way, I'm having a kid. 120 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: Oh by the way, you know, like I'm. 121 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,359 Speaker 2: Coming to the dog. It's like and he'd and Ropye. 122 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 2: Sasaki did it too. 123 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 3: Shoe Hayes was impressive. Hey, Blake Snell did it as well. Yeah, 124 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 3: I think that's just a symptom of working with the Dodgers. 125 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 3: You know, the Dodgers are, you know, painfully well. They 126 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 3: keep things very guarded, very close to the vest. The 127 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: ability that having the ability to kind of break their 128 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 3: own news in this day and age, it seems foreign. 129 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 3: You know. Usually back in the day, back in your day, 130 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 3: he had to wait for the newspaper to come out, 131 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 3: or maybe the late press or something. 132 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 2: I say back in my day, Listen. 133 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: I'll say, back in my day, I'll drink to that 134 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 1: Holy Cow. 135 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 3: I had to. I had to. It's Friday. We're feeling good. Listen. 136 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 3: We could fight at spring training when when we're talking 137 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 3: to Dave Robertson company out there. But we should be celebrating, 138 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 3: we should be rejoicing. Dodgers got kind of everything they 139 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 3: wanted this offseason. Taoscar Hernandez back. You extend Tommy Edmund, You, 140 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 3: you add Rokie Sisaki, you add Blake Snell. What a 141 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 3: fucking off season for this team. And we got a 142 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: nineteen ninety nine super chat from mister John Rodd, Thank 143 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: you says for another for a celebratory glass of wine 144 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 3: for a lot of because Riz just said the wine 145 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 3: she's drinking wasn't that good. 146 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 2: Actually it's not. I need to just slam this and 147 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 2: drink something else. That's a little bit. No, it's definitely 148 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: not a stuff. But here's the thing. 149 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 1: I think that it's an A plus plus offseason for 150 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: the Dodgers. I still have a ton of confidence that 151 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: Kik finds his way in the mix. I mean, Kik, 152 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: obviously I love him, but he's not high priority. Roki 153 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: Sasaki was, Blake Snell was, Taoscar was. Now they really 154 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: have all the pieces in place where Kik could be 155 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: quite the compliment. I love the fact that this team 156 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: goes out and puts their money. I know they have 157 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: a lot of it. But again, this is not about money. 158 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: Let's be clear on this. The Rokie Sisaki sign is 159 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: not about money. Every single team had the opportunity to 160 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: sign him with that International pool money. 161 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: Okay, now the Dodgers ended up giving him. 162 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: It looks like according to Faby and Ardaiya of The Athletic, 163 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: Roki Sasaki's Dodgers signing oneness is six and a half million. 164 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: A source tells us okay, great, so that's okay. Every 165 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: team could have done that. 166 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 3: Now. 167 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: I know that when they signed Hayesan Kim, their pull 168 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: money went down a little bit. 169 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 2: They could have traded for a little bit more. But 170 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 2: what's the difference. 171 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: I know it's a million dollars, but what's the difference 172 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: between six and a half and seven and a half? 173 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: Roki Sasaki I believe made this decision a long time ago. 174 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: He had you his due diligence and talk to the 175 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: other teams, find out the other team's packages. What were 176 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: the opportunities going to be, who was going to surround him? 177 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: If this was about money again said this yesterday on 178 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 1: our show, he would have waited two years to post 179 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: and would have gotten a boltload more money. So this 180 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: is about where he wanted to play, where he could 181 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: get best developed to pitch effectively at the major league level, 182 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: and where is he going to feel comfortable and where 183 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: does he have the best chance to win that. 184 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 3: To to to uh, there's a lot to unpack there. 185 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 3: There's one correction with with the Hayesung Kim that was. 186 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 2: It wasn't international. 187 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, and even so it would have been before this 188 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 3: international pool money, so it would have played a little 189 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 3: bit different. But even so, like that's out of the picture. 190 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 3: The Dodgers used all of their their available bonus money 191 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 3: here on on Rokiesaki. They also traded for some additional money, 192 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 3: trading away minor league pitcher Dylan Carlson to the Phillies 193 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 3: to acquire more money. Uh. But the main thing I 194 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 3: want to focus on, and I've talked a lot about 195 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 3: this on on my All Dodgers YouTube channel. Check it 196 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 3: out subscribe, also subscribe here Dodgers Territory, the Dodgers. And 197 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 3: this is not you know, being a Homer, It's not 198 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 3: being a fan. It's just a reality. The Dodgers are 199 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 3: the best, uh like organization in baseball right now when 200 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 3: it comes to taking care of a player, develop being 201 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 3: a player, not having ownership drama on, you know, surrounding 202 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 3: the headlines right now. They're not trying to offload salary 203 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,560 Speaker 3: like some other teams. They're also not the team that 204 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 3: keeps losing out on free agents like the Toronto Blue Jays. 205 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 3: They are just well built, a well oiled machine. They 206 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:23,599 Speaker 3: also have insane talent on the roster and ready to 207 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 3: go and ready to go out there and run it 208 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 3: back for a back to back title run. So like 209 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 3: the people who want to complain. We had somebody you 210 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 3: know in the chat saying, when do we start hearing 211 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 3: the you know, other teams filing complaints to Major League 212 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 3: Baseball over this. Like you said, Alana, every team had 213 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 3: an opportunity to sign Roki Sasaki. The Dodgers are just better. 214 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and if there was something the fairius going on, 215 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: Rob Manfred would have gotten involved. Okay, Like this is 216 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 1: not something that the Dodgers are just doing by themselves 217 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: and they're being sneaky about it, and this, that and 218 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: the other thing. Any team could have signed roy Sosaki. Again, 219 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers have a ton of money, sure they do, 220 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: but they also reinvested in their club. They also reinvested 221 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: in their stadium. They also reinvested in other ways and 222 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: not for nothing. He they want, guys want. It is 223 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: becoming a destination of where guys want to play. 224 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: They want to be a part of this organization. 225 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: I've been a part of several different organizations in different capacities, 226 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 1: and the Dodgers, I'm telling you, the Dodgers are just 227 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: built differently. They just make you feel some kind of way, 228 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: to make you feel like the bride and not the bride, okay, 229 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: and it's top to bottom. 230 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 3: That's the big thing for it. You know. We heard 231 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 3: uh Tyler glasnow talking to the boys on Foul yesterday 232 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 3: about you know, if you want to go somewhere where 233 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 3: they're going to take care of you, take care of 234 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: your family. Not hear about things like Juan Soto and 235 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 3: the whole issue with his family and the clubhouse. I 236 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 3: mean a lot of you know, the club he's at 237 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 3: Dodger Stadium. The people that are you know, under the mezzanine, 238 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 3: under the word they're just human beings. 239 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody works harder and they take care of their players. 240 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 3: Uh. 241 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 2: They always want to start something. 242 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: Like they're not they're not, they're not, and they're you know, 243 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: people want to hate us, and that's okay. And and 244 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: again I can understand where that's coming from, because if 245 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 1: you're if you're a fan of a team that's not 246 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: spending the money, or if you're a fan of the 247 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,680 Speaker 1: team that's not getting these players, I don't feel I 248 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: don't feel badly for the organization. I may feel badly 249 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: for the fan base, you know, like the Toronto Blue 250 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: Jays fan base. 251 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 2: I might be like, man, that that stinks because. 252 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: They you know, they they had high hopes of getting 253 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: show Hey, they had high hopes. 254 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 3: Great great passing bomb right there by the way. 255 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: Love you know I do, But you know again, like 256 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: I feel I get from a fan's perspective why this 257 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: is annoying, I get you, I feel you, But an 258 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: organization's perspective again, Remember as much player as much money 259 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: as one Soto's getting. Think about how much money Steve 260 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 1: Cohen has as much money as Aaron Judge Gott. Think 261 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: about what the Steinbrenners have, as much money as show 262 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: Hey got. Think of how much Googgenheim is worth. I mean, 263 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: these people have money when you can sponsor, like when 264 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: you have sponsored logos on your jersey, that's your own company. 265 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: That's one heck of a flex, right, Like you can 266 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: him sponsors the Dodgers. They own the Dodgers, and they're like, ah, 267 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: wait a fuck it, we don't need any other sponsors 268 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 1: to throw this logo on here, because you just can. 269 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, just they can. I want to throw out there. 270 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 3: You know who else has money? Ardi Moreno, Dick Montfort. 271 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 3: Those are two people that have John Fisher has some money. 272 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 3: He spending some money this off season for some reason, 273 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 3: I guess. But yeah, again, the Dodgers, they don't just 274 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 3: keep their money. They are true to their words. They 275 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 3: talk often. The front office talks often, stand cast and 276 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: talks often about reinvesting in the organization. When you go 277 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 3: out there and win a world series, you get a 278 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 3: bunch of money for winning that world series. They get 279 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,079 Speaker 3: a bunch of money in advertisement from signing show Heyo Tani. 280 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,079 Speaker 3: They don't just pocket it. They reinvest into the organization, 281 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 3: no doubt. 282 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 2: But they're not idiots either. 283 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: They know that show Heyotani has an entire country behind him. 284 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 2: They know that that's going to open up so many. 285 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 1: Opportunities for sponsorship deals and all of the things from 286 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, all of the money coming in from Japan 287 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: and how much everybody, I mean, people want to know, 288 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,479 Speaker 1: Like if show hey burps. 289 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 2: They want to know about it. 290 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: Like it's just it's insanity the amount of like like 291 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: attention that show Heyotani is getting. 292 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 2: But think about this for a second. I've said it 293 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: one hundred times. 294 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: If show hey Otani is making seven hundred million, it's 295 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: because Guggenheim thinks that they can get a return on 296 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: investment of four times that amount. So Gugenheim is already 297 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 1: anticipating that they're going to get two point eight billion 298 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 1: in return. 299 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: For what they're giving. 300 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: Show Hey, Mark Walter is a very very smart human being. Okay, 301 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: they're not going to dish out seven hundred million dollar 302 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: contracts on a whim and say, let's see, let's see. 303 00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 2: How this works out. 304 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: But they are putting their money back into the team, 305 00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: and this is exciting and Dodgers fans, Showhey would never Mark. 306 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 2: You know, like this is he has respect, this is. 307 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, he would do it very politely and then he'd 308 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: probably apologize profusely. But I I'm proud of I'm proud 309 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: of the organization for what they're doing reinvesting in the team. 310 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: To me, it shows an ownership group that wants to win. 311 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: Is it a blip on their portfolio? Maybe, but you 312 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: know what, Baseball teams and professional sports teams are a 313 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: blip on a lot of ownership group's portfolios, and they 314 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: don't spend money to win.

There's also a wealth of talent when 329 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 3: it comes to the positioned player side of things, even 330 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 3: the minor league side is it's not stacked, super super deep. 331 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 3: But they got some dudes that are ready to help 332 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 3: this team this year if they need it. Let's let's 333 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 3: go forward six years. How many World Series do the 334 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 3: Dodgers win in six years? I want to know what 335 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 3: people are thinking in the chat and a lot of 336 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 3: I want to know, just the boldest of bold see 337 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 3: to your ass. Take right here, how many World Series 338 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 3: of the Dodgers winning. 339 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: It's unbelievably it's unbelievably difficult to win a World Series. 340 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: And I've also said this a thousand times ad nauseum, 341 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: that spending money does not guarantee a World Series. 342 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,239 Speaker 2: It does not. You cannot buy a World Series championship. 343 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: You can buy very good players and it pretty much 344 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: And I've had this conversation with Chris Russo a thousand times. 345 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: You can pretty much guarantee an appearance in the postseason 346 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: if you spend that kind of money, but you cannot 347 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: guarantee a World Series champion. I think in the next 348 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 1: six years, I think we win two two more. 349 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 3: Now is that? Is that? Like all of this money 350 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 3: is that worth it? 351 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 2: Like? 352 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 3: What does the cost if you're able to buy a 353 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 3: World Series? 354 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: If you win one more, if you win one more 355 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,400 Speaker 1: World Series in the next six years, I think all 356 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: of this money was worth it. I mean, of course, 357 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: would you want to win every day? You know how 358 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: difficult every year? Rather, you know how difficult it is 359 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 1: to go back to back. No one's done it since 360 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: the Yankees did it in ninety eight, ninety nine and 361 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: two thousand. 362 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 2: It's impossible. 363 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, So I'd say I'd say two more in the 364 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: next six years. Every other year, well, maybe we start 365 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: doing the every other even year, but I want one 366 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: in five, so every other five. 367 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's go back to back. I want to I 368 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 3: want it back to back. You know what, we're not talking. 369 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 3: We're not talking to repeat a three peat or even 370 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,959 Speaker 3: a four peat. We're talking minimum eight pete to borrow 371 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 3: from the ground. You said that. Anyways, it was Saturday. 372 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 3: It was it was a set. It was an SNL bit, 373 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 3: you know, Bill Schwarski, super fans. This is where we're 374 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 3: at in the show. Guys, it's Friday. We got eight 375 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 3: hundred of you live with us. We're drinking, we're celebrating. 376 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 3: Rokie Sak's a Dodger. Hell of a time to be alive, 377 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 3: hell of a starting rotation. 378 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 2: But I think reality unrealistic. 379 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'll go stupid bold. I think three and 380 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:22,959 Speaker 3: six is pretty reasonable, so that would be better than 381 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 3: your three and five. And this is going forward. I'm 382 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 3: not talking about twenty four or twenty but the fact 383 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 3: that we're able to have this conversation and not really 384 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: be like outlandish about it, not at being just pie 385 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 3: in the sky sort of thing. Yeah, there are a 386 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 3: lot of very good teams laying around Major League Baseball 387 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 3: right now, but none of them are as well built 388 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 3: and as well run as the Los Angeles Dodgers. So 389 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: we're very very advantageous. 390 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 2: Are you've done? Are you set with this roster? Are 391 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 2: you good? Do you need anybody else? You need a 392 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:53,679 Speaker 2: Tanner Scott? 393 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: You need a K? 394 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 3: I need KEYK. I think we need to see kek back. 395 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 3: I think we need to. I mean at this point, 396 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 3: if it you know, they're saving money h signing a 397 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 3: dude for that this the five million or whatever it 398 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 3: was six point What did Fabien say, there goes six 399 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 3: point five million? That doesn't count against the luxury tax 400 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 3: this year? He Rokie would just count as because that's 401 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 3: a bonus, So that doesn't count towards the your luxury tax. 402 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 3: So it's like the Dodgers really didn't sign anybody outside 403 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,360 Speaker 3: of the major League minimum, which means you have more 404 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 3: money for Tanner Scott. If we see that money come down. 405 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 3: We saw what aj Minter today get eleven mil for 406 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:39,959 Speaker 3: each of the next two years two that maybe if 407 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 3: the Mets are out of the picture for mintor maybe 408 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 3: that that contract goes down a little bit more. Tanner Scott, 409 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 3: do you want to win a fricking World Series? Come 410 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 3: to LA But you know, do it at a reasonable price. 411 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 3: But that's what I want to see. I want to 412 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 3: see k K. That's what's left on my shopping list. 413 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 3: If I'm going crazy and we're just getting it all 414 00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 3: and making everybody in baseball hate us, Tanner, Scott, Keik, Hernandez, 415 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 3: come on down. 416 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 2: That's perfect. That would be for me too, That'd be 417 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 2: that would be That would be me too. 418 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: I think if if we could get those two guys, 419 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,160 Speaker 1: that would be pretty fricking incredible. 420 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 3: Solana. Before we get right, let me. 421 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: Ask you know, I'm going to talk all night. I 422 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: am not and I am not getting off of this 423 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: all right, So Tanner, Scott or Keik. 424 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 2: Who do you want more? 425 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 3: I think I want Keik. I think there's something about 426 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 3: the vibes he brings and and you know, people who 427 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 3: have been watching me do this for a very long 428 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 3: time here on the internet, by Internet standards, they would 429 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 3: be shocked to hear the words of I want Keik 430 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 3: coming out of my mouth because I've had some I've 431 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 3: had some thoughts about Enrique Hernandez in the past, Kiki 432 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 3: to upset people on on Instagram, But you just it's 433 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 3: a perfect fit. He is a perfect fit for this 434 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 3: team and you mix him in. Yeah, he mixed him 435 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 3: in alongside Tommy Edman and yeah, it's just it makes 436 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 3: so much sense. And again the vibes and maybe he 437 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 3: does figure out how to play in the regular season 438 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 3: as well, and then you're feeling really good. But the 439 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 3: same way, the starting. 440 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: Rotation that that's that backhanded compliment that you just like 441 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,919 Speaker 1: you just kind of slapped him around a little bit. 442 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: That makes it very difficult for me to get guys 443 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: on our show because of you. 444 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 2: You are You are a problem.

Hopefully Chris Taylor doesn't watch anythes all right, 458 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 3: I've never. 459 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: Said a bad word about Chris, that's all you. If 460 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: Chris doesn't come on, that's because of you. 461 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 3: Well you better come money or ady greed.

Is there is there room for 467 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 3: Clayton Kershaw in this starting rotation? Let's go into that. 468 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 3: What do you think? 469 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 2: Absolutely? 470 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 1: Because unfortunately these the five starters, if Dustin May is 471 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: in fact the fifth, they're not going to stay healthy 472 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 1: the entire season, right, So you get Kersh back in August, September, 473 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: maybe even just October, you know, and he has a 474 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: has a healthy arm, a healthy foot, everything that's been 475 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: ailing him, you know, he has his arm is still 476 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: not work overworked because he hasn't pitched the majority of 477 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 1: the season. Yes, there's always room for Kersh, of course, absolutely. 478 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: I mean this is not who we start the season 479 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: with on you know, when we go to Tokyo for this, 480 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: it's not going to be the same twenty six man 481 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: r it's not even the same forty all the way through. 482 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: So yes, of course there's room for Kersh absolutely, yeah, hope, 483 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: you know, you never know. 484 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 3: And plus that was just a question. You know, Mark 485 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,679 Speaker 3: had a very good question because there's so much talent 486 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 3: available Black Universe. 487 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 2: Is there not a room?
