1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: I was his first interview, you know, and he cussed 2 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: the first time with me, and there's something to be 3 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,320 Speaker 1: said how special that was when Walker dropped his first 4 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 1: F bomb with me. 5 00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 2: What up? 6 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 3: Everybody?

We're happy that you're here. 15 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:41,519 Speaker 3: Clint. 16 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: We knew it was going to happen, but we weren't prepared. 17 00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 1: Let's get to the big ticket. 18 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's do it. 19 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is all reports are 20 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: pointing to Walker Bueller no longer being in Dodger Blue 21 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: Walker f and Bueller apparently is headed to the East 22 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: Coast to come hang out with me in Boston. Jeff 23 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: Passen has a report of this earlier today at seven 24 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 1: thirty this morning, East Coast time right hander Walker Bueller 25 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: in the Boston Red Sox or in agreement on a 26 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: one year, twenty one point five million dollar deal, sources 27 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 1: telling ESPN. One of the Dodgers World Series heroes and 28 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: a two time All Star World join a rebuilt Red 29 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,959 Speaker 1: Sox rotation, a high upside play for both. Russ Dorsey 30 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: was the first one to report Buehler was going to 31 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: the Red Sox, and you and I had discussed this, Clint. 32 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 3: We didn't think that he was going back to the Dodgers. 33 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 1: They didn't offer him a qualifying offer. I had thought 34 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: that he wanted a multi year deal. Still didn't get 35 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 1: that with the Red Sox. But this is a bet 36 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,119 Speaker 1: on me deal for a year and then he can 37 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: enter free agency again and make even more money. It 38 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: still sucks, though, when one of your homegrown guys that 39 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: has meant so much to the organization, that has cemented 40 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: himself in postseason more, goes someplace else. 41 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you could take the positive, you could 42 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 4: take the negative angles on this. The negative is it's sad. 43 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 4: It really sucks to see Walker Buehler, Walk, Walker f 44 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 4: and Buell leave the Dodgers, even though like you said, 45 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 4: we knew it was coming, we knew it was happening. Uh, 46 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 4: it would have things would have really needed to line 47 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 4: up a certain way for Walker to return. But he 48 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 4: takes his talents to the East Coast. He goes to Boston. 49 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 4: I'm assuming he's gonna move in with you guys for 50 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 4: a little while over there, close enough to uh To 51 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 4: to fend Way. But good deal on him. One year, 52 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 4: prove it deal. We've seen him have success there on 53 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 4: the East Coast, pitching in colder weather. I'll just keep saying. 54 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say it again. It's it's just it's sad. 55 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 4: It hurts. At least, you know the positive side. The 56 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 4: his final image, what could be his final image in 57 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 4: a Dodger uniform, is a hell of an image with this, 58 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 4: and of course you guys see the thumbnail. It's it's 59 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 4: Walker Bueller holding a World Series trophy, getting his parade 60 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 4: in La. He had himself one hell of a send off, 61 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 4: stayed up all night partying, drinking, celebrating that World Series 62 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 4: win and all that. But still, you know, it's it's 63 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 4: it's tough. It's definitely a a tough blow, but it's 64 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 4: also you could speak to the strength of where the 65 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 4: Dodgers are at, and we talked about this a little 66 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 4: bit last week. They do have some starting pitching. The 67 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 4: hope is maybe Roki Sasaki still in play and all 68 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 4: of that, so you can survive without Walker. As much 69 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 4: as it sucks to see one. 70 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: Of the boys go, yeah, I mean, I didn't think 71 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: that they absolutely needed to sign him back, just more 72 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,119 Speaker 1: of a sentimental and nostalgic signing. I think, obviously he's 73 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: an incredibly good pitcher and I think he's going to 74 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: go really, really far with the Red Sox. I think 75 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: that they have a really good starting rotation now with 76 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: Garrett Crochet over there. Obviously, they just signed Zandoval from 77 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: the Angels, who's not going to be ready right at 78 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: the beginning of the season. But the point is that 79 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: they're they're putting together some good pieces in Boston, and 80 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: Walker Bueler is a huge part of what they're doing there. 81 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: There's just been certain guys over the course of my 82 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: time covering this team that have hurt a little bit 83 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: more when they leave. Corey Seeger not coming back was 84 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: a bummer. That one bothered me, and I get it, 85 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: like I'm not mad at the Dodgers. 86 00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 3: I'm not bad at Corey. 87 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: It's just like you see these kids come up when 88 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 1: they're you know, nineteen twenty years old, and you see 89 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: them grow through life and all of the life things 90 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: that they do too, and it's just weird not having them. 91 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: JT bothered me. 92 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: A lot, obviously, you know, like if Clayton were to 93 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: pitch in another uniform, that would be really weird too. 94 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: I think Clayton retires as a Dodger, but Walker has 95 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,119 Speaker 1: I was his first interview, you know, and he cussed 96 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,919 Speaker 1: the first time with me, and there's something to be 97 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: said how special that was when Walker dropped his first 98 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: F bomb with me. 99 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 4: Sorry kids, Yeah, I mean that is one of the 100 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 4: things I wanted to ask you as well. And I 101 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 4: don't know if we actually said it on the top. 102 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,040 Speaker 4: I wasn't paying attention to the show. But our friend 103 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 4: Scott Gearman of Dodger Blue will be joining us shortly. 104 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 4: We're going to talk more Walker Buehler. We're going to 105 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 4: talk about the Dodger's payroll situation, because we do have 106 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 4: to wonder with Walker leaving, with Tayaskar Hernandez still a 107 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 4: free agent, are the Dodgers kind of drawing their own 108 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 4: little line in the sand about how much they're willing 109 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 4: to spend. But a lot of I wanted to ask you, like, 110 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 4: you saw this kid come up with the team. You 111 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,799 Speaker 4: were there for the first what four years of his career. 112 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,679 Speaker 4: Do you have your favorite different I guess a favorite 113 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 4: Walker Buler moment besides him having to say sorry, Mom, 114 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:04,679 Speaker 4: sorry kids. 115 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 3: You know, the one thing I. 116 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,719 Speaker 1: Can appreciate about Walker Buehler is that he was just 117 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: an absolute beast on the mound. There was nobody that 118 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: was more competitive and wanted it more other than maybe Clayton, 119 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: but they went about their business very differently. Clayton was 120 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: not throwing down f bombs on you know. He wasn't 121 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: like rich Hill and share Apova like grunting and Zach 122 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: granky grunting and cussing and all that. But Walker was 123 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: just a dog, right. He's just a beast. And I'll 124 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: miss that about him. I'll miss that competitive fire. I'll 125 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 1: miss the confidence, not arrogance, because he always could back 126 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: it up right. It's one thing to be arrogant if 127 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: you don't have the stuff, but Walker has the stuff 128 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: and to be able to say hey, if things get squirrely. 129 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 1: I'll come in and I'll shut this shit down. And 130 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: he did just that, and he shut it down, and 131 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: I'll never ever forget. You know, as iconic as Gibbey 132 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: rounding the base is going like this. 133 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 3: You know, Walker Buehler do in. 134 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: This is just as iconic to me, as far as 135 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: Dodger postseason war is concerned. 136 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 3: It's like, you know, you forgot about me. 137 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: Huh. 138 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: I don't think you can. And that's what I'll miss. 139 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: I'll miss that when he takes the ball every fifth day, 140 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: and you know it sucks. It hurts a little more 141 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: that he's going to the socks just because of twenty eighteen. 142 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: But you want him to succeed, right, You want Corey 143 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: to succeed, You want Belly to succeed, You want j 144 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: T to succeed. And you know Keik and all those guys, 145 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: all the guys that make special. Oh God, Josh calls 146 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: in the money, God bless him to do. 147 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 4: Just fall out of bed and hit right hand. You 148 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 4: get a ton of money. 149 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: The two years, thirty seven million for young Jock six 150 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: fifty God bless. 151 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: Him joining as a dh JO. 152 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 3: Joining joining seeker in Texas. I like Texas. I think 153 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 3: Texas is going to be a really good and they 154 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 3: got Native all d back, who I wanted as a Dodger. 155 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: But whatever, Yeah, so we'll ask we'll ask Scott Beerman 156 00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: what he thinks that that Bierman about Beerman. 157 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 4: By the way, here is that final Walker Buehler moment. 158 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 4: Hell of a sendoff. But you talk about so many 159 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 4: moments like moments in very recent Dodgers history, and Walker 160 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 4: Buehler being that guy that has the ball, like he 161 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 4: just has that hit factor. He has that dog. If 162 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 4: there's somebody who has that dog in him, it is 163 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 4: Walker f and Buehler. And like you said, we're really hoping, wishing, 164 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 4: got our fingers crossed for success for the dude up 165 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 4: there in Boston. You know, doesn't mean his Dodger career 166 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 4: is closed forever, but for now the Dodgers, it's signaled 167 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 4: they have enough to work with without spending another twenty 168 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 4: one or twenty three million dollars on a starting pitcher. 169 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean it's essentially the qualifying offer that was given 170 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: to taoscar and wasn't given to Walker. I mean, they 171 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: just didn't think that they were needed to pay him 172 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: twenty one and a half million, and that's essentially what 173 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: he got from the Red Sox who needed a starting pitcher. 174 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,120 Speaker 1: I mean, this makes a lot of sense for the 175 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: Red Sox, a lot of sense, and I just I 176 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: hope that Walker has a ton of success with them, 177 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: just not against us. I don't think we play the 178 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: Red Sox this year, but I mean if we do, 179 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: I don't think the nl West plays the Aliast, But whatever, 180 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: that is what it is. Scott Gearman is a tremendous 181 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: friend of the show. Is he coming clean? 182 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 4: He is? He is here. We see the man right there, 183 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 4: Scotty Gearman, of course, gritty Scotty here on the internet. 184 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 4: He is a senior writer over at Dodgerblue dot com 185 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 4: and he also is like all of us here for 186 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 4: a little bit of Walker Buehler therapy session together. How 187 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 4: you doing, buddy, and what do you think about this? Uh? 188 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 4: You know, Walker leave in La. 189 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 2: Happy holidays to both of you, by the way, It's 190 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 2: great to see you. Grit to be on. 191 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 5: Uh. Walker Buehler leaving is something that we, you know, 192 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 5: we talked about for I would say the better part 193 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 5: of the year, and it's something that we, you know, 194 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 5: Dodgers fans us where we sit kind of could see 195 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 5: it coming. 196 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 4: Uh. 197 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 5: The momentum towards Walker Buehler returning all was predicated on, 198 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 5: you know, the outlook for him, and we got to 199 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 5: see a a ten inning span where he looked like 200 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 5: he was at his best, absolute best. So it's good 201 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 5: to have that. But it feels, like my buddy texts me, 202 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 5: he said, it feels like a double barrel shotgun right 203 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 5: to the chest for what we've seen. And I've just 204 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 5: been going back and recollecting on a lot of the 205 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 5: good times, Like I was at Game one sixty three 206 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 5: and twenty eighteen. I remember my buddy running through the 207 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 5: parking lot to see the beginning of that game and 208 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 5: just all the big moments. 209 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,239 Speaker 2: I know, a couple of years ago, I believe. 210 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 5: It was twenty twenty one in Arizona, I was at 211 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 5: the game where I think he won a complete game 212 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 5: against the Diamondbacks. So just so many postseason memories, twenty 213 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 5: eighteen World Series. My mind's just going everywhere with how 214 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 5: much Walker Bueler has meant to the organization, his relationship 215 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 5: with Clayton Kershaw, and how gracious Walker Bueler has been 216 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 5: with the fans with the team and open and honest. 217 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 5: I think Alana understands this a bunch being in the 218 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 5: clubhouse with these players, and how candidly Walker Bueler spoke 219 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 5: on his career, his struggles, his lowest of the lowest, 220 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 5: thinking he was going to be, you know, defayed from 221 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 5: the team if even at a spot to throwing the 222 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 5: last pitch of the World Series. It's just thinking about 223 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 5: twenty one and what he's done for this organization. 224 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 2: Can't thank him enough. 225 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: Nobody can take what he was able to accomplish over there, 226 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: his tenure with the Dodgers away from him. I think 227 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: it was kind of fitting that it was dougy that 228 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: he struck out for the final out of the World 229 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: Series there against the Yankees, and now he's going to 230 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: be facing the Yankees a ton as a member of 231 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: the Boston Red Sox. Obviously they're in the al E. 232 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: Scott If you had to guess, do you think this 233 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: was because of terms in terms of multi year deal 234 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: versus not a multi year year deal with LA Is 235 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: it money they didn't offer him the qualifying offer? Is 236 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: it they just have too many right handers in the rotation. 237 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: What is the disconnect in terms of why not bring 238 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: him back at least for one more year. 239 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 5: It's a really good, you know, good good question you 240 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 5: you bring up. I think with the Dodgers not offering 241 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 5: in the qualifying offer is something they've done multiple times 242 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 5: with Clayton Kershaw. Allow him, you know, with Walker Bueler specifically, 243 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 5: to see what market is out there for yourself. Perhaps 244 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 5: the Dodgers wanted to bring him back on a lower 245 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 5: AAV but with the Boston Red Sox. I mean, if 246 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 5: Walker Buehler's career earnings, this is a huge. 247 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 2: Payday for him. It's an opportunity for him to go 248 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 2: on the East Coast. He said he liked pitching in 249 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 2: the cold, that it helped out his stuff. He's able 250 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 2: to you know, two things if he didn't get a 251 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 2: multi year contract, which would have been great for the player, 252 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: great for the money. Probably overall, it allows him to 253 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 2: build his market and continue building off of those ten 254 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 2: innings that we saw post to Tommy John surgeries. How 255 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 2: good can he be? How good can he be? Here? 256 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 5: And I think, you know, Clint also you can speak 257 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 5: to this that Walker Buehler being able to build up 258 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 5: his value in this next year in a place that 259 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 5: we got to see him at his best. I think 260 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 5: if his chapter is done with the Dodgers, then he's 261 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 5: going to be able to take this one year hopefully 262 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 5: bottle that up, see those metrics, and go ahead and 263 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 5: you know, build on this. 264 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 2: Second chapter that we all we all, we all understand. 265 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 5: It's going to be a very fun next chapter for 266 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 5: Walker Buehler with how he can you know, build off 267 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,199 Speaker 5: of what we got to see in the postseason. 268 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, and no one with Walker too. Like I mean, 269 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 4: if he was a free agent come out of twenty one, 270 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 4: he's probably a two hundred million dollar pitcher at that offseason. 271 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 4: But injuries strike at the wrong time, right when he's 272 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 4: about to start making some real money with the team, 273 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 4: has to kind of sign those low value ARB deals, 274 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 4: you know, through the surgery and all that. And now, 275 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 4: I like what you say there, he's able to finally 276 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 4: get that game changing money. And trust me, I would 277 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 4: feel very happy with eight million dollars to throw a 278 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 4: baseball and pitch to an almost sixty RA through the 279 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 4: regular season. But that's neither here nor there. He's earned this. 280 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 4: I want to flip it a little bit on the 281 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 4: money because what we're seeing is Dodgers. Let Walker Buehler go. 282 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 4: We still haven't seen a taoscar Hernandez deal. I'm wondering 283 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 4: if they're drawing a little bit of a soft line 284 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 4: in the sand when it comes to their payroll, because 285 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 4: we just saw the numbers, the figures released last weekend 286 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,080 Speaker 4: or just over the weekend. A lot of money one 287 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty million dollars I think was the payroll, 288 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,320 Speaker 4: A one hundred and three million dollar tax they had 289 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 4: to pay. That is a lot of cheddar. Do you 290 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,079 Speaker 4: think that's where the Dodgers are kind of at mentally, 291 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 4: maybe trying to, you know, ring back the spending a 292 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 4: little bit. And that's where we're not seeing Tao. That's 293 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 4: where we're not seeing Walker Bueler back in a Dodger uniform. 294 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 5: I honestly don't think the organization cares too much about 295 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 5: where the payroll is at. They've built this cash cow 296 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 5: that they understand in the front office has been and 297 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 5: even Dave Roberts, I mean, Brandon Gomes, Andrew Friedman, they've 298 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 5: been very upfront that they intend to spend. You could 299 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 5: see a little twinkle in Andrew Freeman's eye. Brandon Gomes 300 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 5: as well, that it looks like on the business end, 301 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 5: they've got it completely all together. 302 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 2: And you look at where the collective, you. 303 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 5: Know, the taxes, the CBT tax is at this past year, 304 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 5: next year, and then you know twenty twenty five, it's 305 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 5: up to two hundred and forty one million. 306 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 2: Dodgers are already projected to go above that. They're going 307 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 2: to be at. 308 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 5: I believe Cotts has them at two hundred and eighty 309 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 5: one million. So they're going to pay into the tax again, 310 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 5: they're going to pay a search charge on it. They're 311 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 5: going to I just do not think they care. They're 312 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 5: comfortable drafting where they're at as far as looking at 313 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 5: who they're bringing back. I think the Dodgers have evaluations 314 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 5: on players and they're not willing to stray too far 315 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 5: away from those evaluations and the money. 316 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: They give out. 317 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 5: I was speaking with Blake Williams, managing editor at Dodger Blue, 318 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 5: and he made a lot of good points that the Dodgers, 319 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 5: you know, they are one of the smartest, smartest, if 320 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 5: not smartest organization in all of major sports. That they 321 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 5: evaluate these players. They stay where they're at, and it 322 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 5: lets them and allows them to continue being successful year 323 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 5: after year. The biggest one for me is that you 324 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 5: look at twenty nineteen after the Nationals won a World Series, 325 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 5: and you immediately turn around and hand Steven Strassburg just 326 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 5: a massive contract. I know that's an outlier deal. We're 327 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 5: not talking about, you know, a couple hundred million dollars 328 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 5: for TiO Oscar. But it's about evaluating how much does 329 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 5: Taosker have in the tank, looking at his red flags 330 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 5: that are there, but also understanding that to maintain the 331 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 5: current group that they have to not have any dead 332 00:14:59,280 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 5: money on the. 333 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 2: Bar the books. 334 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 5: As far as players you have to play, they're only 335 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 5: going to go so far, which is why I think 336 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 5: that a two year deal is where they're sticking with 337 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 5: ta Oscar. They probably want to add some deferred money 338 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 5: and that's just not where the ti Oscar and this 339 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 5: camp is at. Well. 340 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: The Washington Nationals also did a really good choice of 341 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: going with Steven Strasburg on that massive deal and letting 342 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: Anthony Rendon go, and he has I think he's played 343 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: four innings since they let him go. As far as 344 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: the Angels are concerned, they're at third base. Let me 345 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: ask you this though, Scott I think you know this 346 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: team better than anybody. Do you think that this opens 347 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: up more of a window for Roki Sasaki When you're 348 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: talking about the fact that he's a twelve million dollar player, 349 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: all teams can be in on him. He doesn't come 350 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: with the high price tag, but he's a much more 351 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: controllable piece, a right hand er. Of course, for your rotation. 352 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: It's not a Walker Bueler type. You don't know what 353 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: he can do yet at the big league level in 354 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: the United States. But is that more of an option 355 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: for the Dodgers now than it was, say, before Walker 356 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: went to the Red Sox. 357 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 2: I'd say so. I would say so. 358 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 5: I believe they would have made it work regardless, Alana, 359 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 5: Like if if Walker Viler was back, they would have 360 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 5: made it they They've made it pretty clear. The Dodgers' 361 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 5: front office has made it clear that a six man 362 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 5: rotation is. 363 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: Where they're going to be. 364 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 5: It works for a lot of their arms in terms 365 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 5: of like tyalerck Lass now, Shoheo, Tani Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and 366 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 5: looking around in Roki Susaki if he slots right in there, 367 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 5: and even Walker Viler might have benefited from some extra rest. 368 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 5: You all have to see, even Tony Gonsolin, Dustin May. 369 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 5: They have a lot of guys where you need to 370 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 5: temper some innings here and keep them healthy towards the 371 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 5: back end of the year. So without Walker Viler in 372 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 5: the equation, Clayton Kershaw, excuse me as well, you will need, 373 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 5: you know, all of these arms. And I think that 374 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 5: with the landing spot that the Dodgers have for Roki Sasaki, 375 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 5: it allows him to understand that he's going into a 376 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 5: rotation that's comfortable, on a schedule that's comfortable. You've got 377 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 5: a lot of arms in the organization who are comfortable 378 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 5: coming up landon nac Ben Casparius like they'd have arms 379 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 5: that can come up and supplement this starting rotation. So 380 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 5: I think that with Roki Sasaki, it's a better time 381 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 5: than ever to be a Los Angeles Dodger if that's 382 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 5: where he chooses to go. 383 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 4: Yeah. Now the next one again, the big one. Now 384 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 4: we have to wait on Taoskar. We think this team 385 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 4: needs more help on offense. We definitely agree Scott that 386 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 4: they need some help in the outfield. Tale has already 387 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 4: been there, done that for this team. The clutch is 388 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 4: there he fits in the clubhouse, but he's still not here, 389 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 4: and we're seeing our foul colleague. Ken Rosenthal put out 390 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 4: an article over the weekend about, hey, the Dodgers are 391 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 4: probably exploring some alternatives. We've seen some Hasan Kim in there, 392 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 4: but more so the Luis Robert is back. It feels 393 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 4: like we're at the trade deadline again from a year ago. Say, 394 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 4: s Suzuki, what do you think of those guys, some 395 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 4: of the other the alternatives to Tao that we're seeing 396 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 4: out there. Do you think there's a good fit there. 397 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 4: Do you think there's some deals or do you think 398 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 4: ultimately the team just needs to be smart? Do it? 399 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 4: Alana wants If it ain't Tao, don't do it. What 400 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 4: do you think is kind of in the works right now? 401 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 4: As we approach Christmas. 402 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 5: A lot of you say, if they don't do ta 403 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 5: Oscar hands you go where I don't go. 404 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: I don't go, I don't, I don't. I just don't 405 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 1: even want to go there. I don't even want to 406 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: think about Tayo or not in a I don't want. 407 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that right field should be empty and 408 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: we should only play with eight, you know, eight defenders. 409 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 3: Or seven defenders. 410 00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: But what I am saying is if his name isn't 411 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: doesn't start with the T and end in an H, 412 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: I'm not listening. 413 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 3: I just think you want to be a good fit. Yeah, 414 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 3: it's such a good fit. I mean, is it? Is it? 415 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: I mean, as as Clint was saying, Scott Ken was saying, 416 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 1: Ken Rosenthal was saying, the hand up of negotiations is 417 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: between is money, not years. If the Dodgers don't care 418 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: what they spend, I mean, who's worth more to the team. 419 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: And he's not asking for fifty AAV. He's not asking 420 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: for thirty AAV Like, who's Like? What make this make 421 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: sense for me? 422 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 3: Please? Kind sir? 423 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I got it. I'm one hundred percent with you 424 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 2: on that. I was on here. 425 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 5: I remember a domestic opening day. We were on our 426 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 5: due right before we had the show or you had 427 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,719 Speaker 5: the show before that game. I said ti Oscar Nadez 428 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 5: was going to be the X factor for the year, 429 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 5: and it was. He exceeded xpations as far as a 430 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,879 Speaker 5: blue guy, being, you know, an instant favorite with the 431 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 5: fan base, performance on the field, clutch situations, all of it. 432 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 5: He just feels like the perfect fit. Just like I 433 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 5: said earlier, the Dodgers probably have evaluations. They're not willing 434 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 5: to go a certain number. And if they can meet 435 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 5: in the middle on something, I think it would have 436 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 5: already gotten done right now. And that's why we have 437 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 5: to start looking towards alternative scenarios, alternative options here. And 438 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,479 Speaker 5: I was going to bring up Ken Rosenthal. He's done 439 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 5: terrific work. You can let him know he's in his 440 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 5: bag this offseason with this, you know this stuff. Absolutely, 441 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 5: Luis Robert is definitely a possibility. I think Saya Suzuki, 442 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 5: the Cubs don't have to move him, they don't have 443 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 5: to do that. He's a tough bat to replace in 444 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 5: that lineup, like Ken pointed out, for sure, I think 445 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 5: Luise Robert would make a ton of sense again because 446 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 5: then it would move Tommy Edmund free him up, go 447 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 5: play shortstop. 448 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 2: Mookie Bets can move back to second base. 449 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 5: Which is why we heard the rumblings and the rumors 450 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 5: that Gavin Lux was in a deal that would have 451 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 5: gone to the Milwaukee Brewers for Devin Williams. So I 452 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 5: think that's something, you know, put a pin in if anything, 453 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 5: if there's any moving parts, that's somewhere where we can 454 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,239 Speaker 5: go we can say we saw them try to make 455 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 5: that work. But with tai Oscar Alana, I can't think 456 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 5: of another player I want to see back with the 457 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 5: Dodgers more than ta Oscar. 458 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 2: I haven't. 459 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 5: I just I haven't felt a certain type of way 460 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 5: about a player that's coming on a one year contract 461 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 5: that fans have gravitated to. And I know I see 462 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 5: a lot of people talking, you know, down on ta Oscar. 463 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 5: We're being open about him wanting to return to the Dodgers, 464 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 5: and people have to understand that this is some player's 465 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 5: best opportunity to make life changing money and it's their 466 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 5: job as the players and the players Association to get 467 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 5: as much as you can. And that's what he's doing 468 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 5: right now. So there will be posturing. It not always 469 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 5: the best outcome for fans, but that's just the way 470 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 5: it works. 471 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 2: That's how it is in professional sports. 472 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I know I'm. 473 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: Very good authority, Scott hang On, Sorry, Clint, I didn't 474 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: mean to Tako either, but I know I'm very good authority. 475 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 3: Taoskar wants to come back. 476 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: It's just a matter of how far, how far apart 477 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: could they possibly be. 478 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 3: On the money. 479 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 5: I mean a couple million. I think, you know, we've 480 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 5: seen some stuff it's about as five million. But I 481 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 5: think it's about the deferred money. I'll stick with it that. 482 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,119 Speaker 5: It's definitely about the deferred money. He took that in 483 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 5: the first one and he joined. He went to the 484 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 5: Dodgers on a one year, took the deferred money there. 485 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 5: He probably they don't want to do it again. But yes, 486 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 5: I believe to Oscar Nandoz. But that wasn't a show. 487 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 5: He loves the environment, he loves the moment. He wants 488 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 5: to be a Los Angeles Dodger. It's just a matter 489 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 5: of can you get you know, two partners to dance 490 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 5: on that deferred money. 491 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,479 Speaker 4: And that's where I worry about, Like if there is 492 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 4: this well, I mean, he already said it too, like 493 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 4: there is a soft line in the sand. The Dodgers 494 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 4: are trying to probably not have a payroll exceed a 495 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 4: certain number. They obviously have their whatever, however they view 496 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 4: how they value ta Oscar and right now it's a 497 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 4: bit of I'm not going to go to you or 498 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 4: I'm not going to come to you. We're here, and 499 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 4: maybe they haven't talked in the last couple of days 500 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 4: or something like that. I have a hard time believing that. 501 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 4: But we Elana and I when we were talking on 502 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 4: Monday's Show or last the Last Thursday Show, whatever it was, 503 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 4: I'm like, if it comes down to five or ten 504 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 4: million dollars and like a year or whatever, it is, like, 505 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,360 Speaker 4: I'm gonna have a hard time dealing with that. 506 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 3: Like the film, I'm sorry, I'll start to go fund me. 507 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, somebody said that in the chat twenty. 508 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 3: Dollars, we can start to go fund me and get 509 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 3: I'll make up. I'll make up the difference. 510 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 4: So let's look at Suzuki versus Luis Robert. Obviously, Scott, 511 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,120 Speaker 4: you and I talked a lot around the deadline last 512 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 4: year about Luis Robert and and trying to buy ourselves 513 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,360 Speaker 4: into you know, him coming to LA. Maybe they find 514 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 4: a fix there, maybe he fits in, maybe he could 515 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 4: actually stay healthy, but still an imperfect player, say a Suzuki, 516 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 4: same thing, an imperfect player. But if they go to 517 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 4: one of these guys or even like an injured Hasan Kim, 518 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 4: which let's say you know specifically those three names, what 519 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 4: do you think is a better fit. If there is 520 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 4: the scenario where Taoskar Hernandez does not return. 521 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 5: I would say, Luise Robert. I'm pretty I'm pretty locked 522 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 5: in on that right now. He's a controllable outfielder. His 523 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 5: highs are, you know, a top top fifteen player in 524 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 5: the league. We've seen him when he's at his peak. 525 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 5: The caveat with him and the downside is health. Can 526 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 5: he stay healthy? He just hasn't done it. Ken Rosenthal, 527 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 5: everybody check out his article with this stuff with the 528 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 5: he laid it out perfectly. He laid out the big 529 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 5: points with Luis Robert that he's only played over one 530 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 5: hundred games so many times in the last few years 531 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 5: because of injuries. But he's the youngest, he's the most controllable. 532 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 5: He's got a couple club options in there that just 533 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 5: work out really well. It's team friendly, he's playing at 534 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 5: his peak. It's still a bargain and that's a terrific 535 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 5: way to look at it. He's not going to cost 536 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 5: the Dalton rushing He's not going to cost the number 537 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 5: one prospects like Garrett Crochet commanded. That's just not what 538 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 5: Louise Robert's looking at for where his market's at. I 539 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 5: would love for the Dodgers to go get Louise Robert. 540 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 5: We talked about it at the deadline because it would 541 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 5: free up Tommy Edmond and then it would free up 542 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 5: Mookie Bets to get back to second base. And then 543 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,159 Speaker 5: that's why you'll see some options there. Because Michael Confordo 544 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 5: is an everyday guy. I don't believe he's a platoon player, 545 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 5: and they should have not even think of that. His 546 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,120 Speaker 5: numbers versus lefties were terrific last year. 547 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 2: He was good stuff. 548 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 5: And then playing away from Oracle Park, which is just 549 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 5: a hitter's nightmare unless you're very bonds, it's a it's 550 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 5: a good spot to be for Michael Confordo to be 551 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 5: an everyday player. So that frees up Tommy Edmond go 552 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 5: to short, you put Luis Robert in center field, and 553 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 5: then after that, you know, we can talk about everything else. 554 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. 555 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, Christian Walker, well, just Christian Walker getting a really 556 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: good deal. You've got Jack Peterson who falls out of 557 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 1: bed and gets two years, thirty seven million, and Jack 558 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 1: is the eighth essentially right obviously crushes a right handed pitching. 559 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 1: But I don't know, I just and obviously there's there's 560 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: a reason this is happening, and I trust Andrew Friedman. 561 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: I trust the Dodgers for an office. They obviously know 562 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: what the heck they're doing. I'm just trying to figure 563 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,479 Speaker 1: out what it is, what the hold up is. I mean, 564 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: we're all speculating. None of us actually know what's going on, 565 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,879 Speaker 1: of course, but for a couple million dollars, I'm bringing 566 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: him back. You know what you're getting with Taoscar Hernandez, right. 567 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: You know that he fits in the clubhouse. You know 568 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: that he's great in that lineup. Arguably the first half MVP. 569 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 1: I know it was show Hey over the course of 570 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: the year. I get that fifty to fifty. But if 571 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: you talk about most considered productive hitter over the course 572 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 1: of the first half of the season, most consistent guy, 573 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: that was Tao for me. 574 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 4: And bringing in the expectations as well coming in. This 575 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 4: is the guy who came here on like a proven deal. 576 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 4: He proved it. 577 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 2: Now, yeah, I'm with ta Oscar. 578 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 5: You have to think back towards the set in New 579 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 5: York during I think June ta Oscar was the one 580 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 5: that carried that club. It felt like, I know these 581 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 5: things matter, and its regular season, but as far as perception, 582 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 5: going again. 583 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 2: You know two powerhouse teams. Ta Oscar carry that load. 584 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 5: He had a Grand Slam there, he had a big 585 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 5: knock late and game Mookie bets same thing, you look ahead. 586 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,360 Speaker 2: That stuff all carries over to Oscar and. 587 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 5: Has had multiple big hits that felt like when the 588 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 5: Dodgers needed them the most. He stepped up against the 589 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 5: San Diego Padres hit the Grand Slam, almost came back 590 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,199 Speaker 5: in that game against the New York Yankees. It's just 591 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 5: the rest is what it is. We know what ta 592 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 5: Oscar means to the team. You can't say enough about him. 593 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 5: I would hate for this to be a thing over. 594 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 5: If it's an extra year, then I can talk about 595 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 5: then we've got then there's a problem. Then then I 596 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 5: could see the Dodgers just not wanting to go that 597 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 5: extra year. They don't want to, you know, trend to 598 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 5: the three four year thing. I think it's a three 599 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 5: year deal that he's looking for. I think of two 600 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 5: years where the Dodgers are sticking with deferred money and 601 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 5: they don't want to go over that. But if it's 602 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 5: extra years, then I just it's unfortunate. But that's kind 603 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 5: of I believe the Dodgers are drying. Just like you said, 604 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 5: a soft line. I think they have a hard line 605 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 5: in the sand at a two year contract and then 606 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 5: with some deferred money in there, and that's just what 607 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 5: we'll have to live with. 608 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say in three years from now, I 609 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 4: don't think he's going to be completely like some old 610 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 4: decrepit man. I think he can still get the ball. 611 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,360 Speaker 4: You get the job done, you know, ball, don't lie. 612 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 4: He can handle that. Before we let you go, Scott, 613 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 4: you got anything, tao aside? You got anything on your 614 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 4: Dodgers Christmas wishless? With the you know, the big day 615 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 4: a couple of days away. 616 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 2: Oh as far as Dodgers gear, I mean I have, 617 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 2: I've got a. 618 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 4: Couple our players.

I 622 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 5: just needed, because it's just that to get to work, 623 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 5: just at where it's at until the signing window opens 624 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 5: for twenty twenty five, and then that's what we'll have 625 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 5: to wait to holon. 626 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 2: I don't want to get to that point. 627 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 5: But my Tommy Edmund autographed photos getting here today my 628 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 5: Ti Oscar ones getting here today, finally after months months 629 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 5: roundo applause, months of no nothing.

I believe the Dodgers are 634 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 5: the best fit. They provide the best runway for the 635 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 5: rest of his career, best place to win. No better 636 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 5: place than La for ta Oscar, I hope it gets done. 637 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: No better place than La for anybody, myself included.

This is cash. Cash is a stray dog. 651 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: That is up by the Fresno, California area, specifically free 652 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: into California, but that is near Fresno. A stray dog 653 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: that is about a year to two years old. We 654 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: have been able to secure him and got the basic vaccinations. 655 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: He is not microchip. There's nobody looking for him, but 656 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: he is absolutely beautiful. He is a Callie mix. Right now, 657 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: we have him scheduled for a neoter on January ninth. 658 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: But more importantly, we need a long term foster or 659 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: adopter anywhere in the California area.
