1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: Personally, I don't think they need someone of the ilk

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: of Edwin Diaz. However, it's not our money. It's not

3
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: my money.

4
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 2: Hell everybody, and happy Monday, I believe it. Yes, it

5
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: is Monday night football tonight here in my area. Last

6
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 2: night it was Sunday Night football, the Broncos eking a

7
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 2: win out in overtime. Climt Pasius Alanaizso your daughter's territory

Speaker 2: hear what you guys are thinking about. What is not

17
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 2: happening in this off season. It is very very quiet

18
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: and it is very very cold. In terms of the

19
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: stove now, Clint, you and I talked about it our

20
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 2: production meeting. It's a it's very very quiet, but hopefully

21
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 2: it heats up.

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, we need something to heat up. You know, I'm uh,

23
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: I'm bored. I'm bored of this off season. It's funnyriz

24
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: you think you think back to one year ago. There

25
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,559
Speaker 1: were all these rumors, there were things happening, There was stuff,

26
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, moving, There was Rokie Sasaki rumors. The Dodgers

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 1: had just signed Blake Snell before that. Yeah, or around

28
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: that time too, you have are the Dodgers going to

29
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: bring back to Asta Hernandez? All this kind of stuff.

30
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 1: Plus you know, we were talking to players and things.

31
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: You know, it was it was fun. It was a

32
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: fun off season. Something's different about this offseason and I

33
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: think you could kind of attribute that to the fact

34
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: that Dodgers don't have a lot of needs and that

35
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: makes it both great for the team but a little

36
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: boring for us and the fans.

37
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 2: Boring for this time of year. But let's get into it.

38
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: We'll talk a little bit more about it in the

39
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: big ticket. The see the direction the Dodgers are going.

40
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 2: All right, So the MLB Winter Meetings are going to

41
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 2: happen next week in Orlando, Florida. Hopefully it's the beginning

42
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 2: of a lot of signings. Hopefully it's the beginning of

43
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 2: a lot of action. It typically isn't that way. Ever

44
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 2: since the world of social media and every single president

45
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: of baseball ops general manager ever since they all got smartphones,

46
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 2: and the world in baseball moves at the speed of light. Now,

47
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: this type of week doesn't mean as much as it

48
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 2: used to do back in the day when you had

49
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: to have face to face meetings in owners' suites and

50
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: those types of things. But to your point, Clint, last

51
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 2: year at this time, you'll remember Blake Snell was signed,

52
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: I believe on November thirtieth, so that was yesterday of

53
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. The Dodgers were already said to have

54
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 2: been all in or at least a lot of the

55
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:02,279
Speaker 2: way in on Roki Sasaki. There were certainly taoscar Hernandez

56
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: return rumors at this time last year. They needed stuff

57
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 2: last year, not so much this year. And again, to

58
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: your point, that's a good thing, right It's nice that

59
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: we don't have so many holes to fill, and right

60
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 2: now I feel like the Dodgers just need some ancillary pieces.

61
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 2: But it's also kind of like, if we're staying pat

62
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: it's kind of a bit of a boring offseason. And

63
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 2: then you're hoping that everybody comes into spring training healthy

64
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 2: and looks great and can build upon yet again another

65
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 2: World Series championship next year.

66
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean again, this roster is very good. They

67
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: can go out there right now and compete for a

68
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: World Series, probably beat most, if not all, of the

69
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: teams in the league, even the Rockies. I don't know

70
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: why I felt like attacking the Rockies there, but yeah,

71
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: you know, Dodgers are an incredibly good spot. Other teams

72
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: are making moves, signing some players that the Dodgers had

73
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: some interest in, as we've heard this offseason. Of course

74
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: we know riz the team is said to be looking

75
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: for right handed leverage relievers. One of the names off

76
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: the lists, a guy we've talked a little bit about,

77
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: Ryan Helsley, signs with the Baltimore Orioles. They're out there

78
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 1: making some moves. Good on them. They are also very,

79
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: very bad in twenty twenty five, coming off of a

80
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 1: couple of pretty decent seasons. But I think it was

81
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: a two year, like twenty eight million dollar deal. You

82
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: know this follows you know, Ryce Seleglacias, another guy the

83
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: Dodgers were said to have been linked to. I don't

84
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 1: know about you. Helsley was not at the top of

85
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 1: my list of guys to sign, but he was. You know,

86
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: of all of the names that throw right handed and

87
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: have pitched in you know, high leverage situations, he was

88
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: one of them. He was just a name.

89
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 2: He was a name. You're right, he does have one

90
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 2: of those. It was funny to me because I remember

91
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 2: watching it on Cardinal Territory and I think Lance Lynn

92
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: was on foul Territory one day that Scott Broun was

93
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 2: off when I was hosting, and Ryan Helsley made it

94
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 2: very apparent that he thought Saint Louis was going to

95
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: reach back out to him, which I've thought the honesty

96
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 2: was interesting to for a player to actually say, like, oh, yeah,

97
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 2: I expect that team to contact me, but no, it's

98
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 2: the Orioles, and good for them. The Oriols need a

99
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 2: lot of improvement, though I believe the Orioles need more

100
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 2: starting pitching than they do a right handed, you know,

101
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 2: leverage arm. But good for Helsley and Ryce Eliglesias off

102
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: the board went back to Atlanta ALEXANTHOPOLISA. That was the

103
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 2: plan all along. He wasn't traded at the deadline, so

104
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 2: they just extended him and here you have it. So

105
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: if you look at the closer market, which you and

106
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: I have talked about at length on this show and

107
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 2: on other shows, I think the closer market is the

108
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 2: most interesting one because there's the most talent, I think

109
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: when you're looking at that particular position. To me, it

110
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 2: was like the shortstop market a few years back when

111
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 2: there was a lot of really quality shortstops in the

112
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 2: free agent pool. So that being said, the one at

113
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 2: the top of the list. And that's kind of depending

114
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 2: upon how you feel about it. And again, you guys

115
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 2: get your thoughts in the chat about how you feel.

116
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 2: Mark finesand who writes for MLB dot Com, works for

117
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 2: a lot of other outlets as well, listed the Dodgers

118
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 2: as a top landing spot for Edwin Diaz and I

119
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 2: actually had a texting conversation today with Fine sand I

120
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 2: wanted to see if he could come on the show

121
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 2: on Wednesday to talk more about this, and he's not

122
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 2: able to this week, but he was saying, you know

123
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 2: the same thing we were saying. It's been so quiet,

124
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 2: and he joked he's like, hopefully everybody signs this upcoming week,

125
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 2: which we know that's not going to happen, but that

126
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 2: would be a lot of fun. And I do feel

127
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 2: that the free agency period should have a deadline only

128
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 2: for only for our sake, not for the players. I know,

129
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 2: not for the players, but for us just to have

130
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 2: something to talk about. That would be fun. But is Diaz, guys,

131
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 2: is Diaz Clint the perfect free agent match for the

132
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 2: Dodgers as Mark believes him to be.

133
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think it's an intriguing question. We know,

134
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: I know you really want this team to land a

135
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: closer type. There are there's a couple of big names.

136
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 1: As you mentioned, there are no better closers, more accomplished

137
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: closers on the free agent market than Edwin Diaz. Personally,

138
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: I don't think they need someone of the ilk of

139
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 1: Edwin Diaz. However, we're just having a conversation a little

140
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,839
Speaker 1: bit ago. In my my all Dodgers discord about the

141
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: idea of it's not our money, it's not my money.

142
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: Even if you're paying this dude twenty million a year

143
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: for the next three four five years, it's.

144
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 2: Only fifteen though, because ESPN hasn't projected for a four

145
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: year six I say, I think only fifteen fifteen is nothing.

146
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: I think that's low.

147
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, fifteen million a year for a closer of that caliber.

148
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: If he was the Edwin Diaz of two years ago

149
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: Tommy trumpet Edwin Diaz, I would take that.

150
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: I mean, and we'll we'll get to the numbers in

151
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: a little bit. But but to its core, if the

152
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: Dodgers are in on on Edwin Diaz, listen, I'm not

153
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: going to be upset about it. Anthony Dicomo, who also

154
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: covers the the Mets for MLB dot Com this this

155
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: fella here, I don't know what he does, but somebody

156
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 1: turned me onto to this tweet, which led me to Reddit.

157
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 1: Ask me anything, reddit Ama that the como did this

158
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: morning saying that in his opinion, he'd have to consider

159
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 1: the Dodgers a favorite to land Edwin Diaz, if for

160
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: no other reason that they are the Dodgers. So that's

161
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: kind of funny to throw that in there. But his

162
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: expectation is that David Stearns, the GM president of Baseball

163
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: Operations for the New York Mets, doesn't really like to

164
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: spend on relievers. Then again, neither generally neither do the

165
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: Dodgers like to spend a bunch of money on the relievers.

166
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: It was kind of shocking to me last year with

167
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: that Tanner Scott deal. I can see them maybe being

168
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: a little more in on it this year in an

169
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: Edwin Diaz deal. But we've also talked a lot about

170
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 1: Devin Williams and those are kind of the two names

171
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: that are at the top of the free agent closer,

172
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: righty reliever market. And that's the question I have for

173
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: you for the chat as well. It's do you go

174
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 1: with Edwin Diaz and you kind of have maybe more

175
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 1: of a rock solid option because he's been great outside

176
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: of that knee injury and surgery and missing the twenty

177
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 1: twenty three season, he has been great. As for Devin Williams, obviously,

178
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: last year a bit of a struggle in New York,

179
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: to say the least. Asked our friend Derek Lewandowski over

180
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: in Pinstripe Territory for his thoughts on Devin Williams, and

181
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: then you know, he also missed a lot of time

182
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 1: last season in twenty twenty four with a back injury.

183
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: Numbers wise, put this together real quick. I mean the

184
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: numbers honestly somewhat comparable.

185
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 2: They're very comparable, Like they're both very good pictures.

186
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: That's right.

187
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, I mean that's I mean, certainly, Devin

188
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 2: Williams twenty twenty five was nothing to write home about.

189
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 2: I mean Edwin Diaz certainly his what But I'd love

190
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 2: to see the Edwin da as you know, twenty twenty five,

191
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, Edwin Dias before he got hurt in

192
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 2: the WBC obviously in celebration. But I wouldn't be upset

193
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 2: with either of them. And to be clear, we're not

194
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 2: talking about Edwin Diaz coming to the Dodgers guys for

195
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 2: fifteen million. We're saying per year. I'm not saying fifteen

196
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 2: million total. I'm talking about an AAV of fifteen million

197
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 2: per year. I saw somebody in the chat that said,

198
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 2: there's why he goes for fifteen million AV.

199
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: There was the ESPN report or projection of four years

200
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: and sixty. I think it's going to be more than

201
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: that personally, because because what he opted out of the

202
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,599
Speaker 1: final two years of a five year, one hundred and

203
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: two million dollar deal, which means he left you know,

204
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: twenty in change on the table. I think he's going

205
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: to try to surpass that. Personally, I think he's going

206
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: to look at another five he could be.

207
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 2: No, I'm not trying to sign Edwin Diaz to a

208
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 2: five year deal. I'm not trying to sign a closer

209
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 2: to a five year deal. So if Devin Williams can,

210
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: you know he's gonna Devin Williams is going to come

211
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 2: with a lower price tag. And I remember I Devin

212
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 2: Williams was an absolute beast with no wife. Yeah, so

213
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 2: I would not I would absolutely not mind having Devin

214
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 2: Williams as the Dodgers closer. I would be fine with that.

215
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 2: And I think that that will give the team, not

216
00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 2: that this is a team that needs payroll flexibility, but whatever.

217
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 2: That will give the team some payroll flexibility to spend

218
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 2: that money elsewhere.

219
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 1: Yeah. I really like the idea of Devin Williams in

220
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: that he is a high upside dude. You can kind

221
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 1: of get him on maybe a little bit of a

222
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: by low deal. Probably get him we've mentioned, you know,

223
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: so far this offseason. Probably get him on a one

224
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: year deal with a team or a mutual option for

225
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven, assuming or presuming there is baseball to

226
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: be played in twenty twenty seven. That's a problem for

227
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: a different day. But I really like the idea and

228
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: the idea of also the payroll flexibility and understanding that

229
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: the Dodgers have a lot of pitchers. We've talked about

230
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: the starting rotation side of things. A lot of those guys,

231
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: they're not gonna have a ten man rotation, so some

232
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 1: of those dudes are gonna need to move into the

233
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: bullpen where you have you know, River Ryan, who could

234
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: be an elite reliever, Kyle Hurt who will be an

235
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: elite reliever, mark my words on that one. Ben Casparius

236
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: should be in the bullpen for the entirety of the year.

237
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: Next year, who knows if Roki Sasaki ends up in

238
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: the rotation or the bullpen. So next year, after twenty six,

239
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: you probably have a spot open with you know, Blake

240
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 1: trying to either not signing or retiring or whatever. Uh,

241
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 1: but you have enough dudes to backfill this where I

242
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,560
Speaker 1: don't think you need a guy for three or four

243
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: or five years. So I don't That's why I don't

244
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: know that Edwin Diaz ends up wanting to come here,

245
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: but well.

246
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah here, well it does, but if he

247
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 2: cares about the years, I don't think. I don't think

248
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 2: LA is the place for him. I just don't see.

249
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 2: I don't see Andrew Friedman and you know, uh Farhun

250
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 2: or whomever's signing the checks now doing five years for

251
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 2: for reliever or I really don't. Maybe he can go

252
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: five years to the Lakers if wants to.

253
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: No, I think we already did. Uh, we already did

254
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 1: our our our Lakers chat last week with h with

255
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 1: Andrew Friedman taking over or doing something whatever he's doing

256
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: for the Lakers. But guys, get more chats, in, get

257

263
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:10,480

310
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 1: I paired down to the twelve kind of cheaper free agents.

311
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: I had a little bit of an idea or a

312
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 1: little bit of of of a chat this offseason, a

313
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: little bit of a I guess dialogue about the idea

314
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: of signing Mike Stromsky as a you know, big time

315
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: fall fall fallback planned another you can call Michael Conforto

316
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: two point zero. I don't hate the idea of Yustromsky.

317
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 1: I don't know though that I'd rather just see this team,

318
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: you know, run, Alex Call and Ryan Ward out there.

319
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: But you were kind of against Yustromsky, you know, passingly

320
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: as we're trying to wrap up the segment, like what

321
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: are your real thoughts on all?

322
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 2: I just he just wasn't in my top three, you

323
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 2: know what I mean? Like that you presented it. The

324
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 2: way that we presented it to one another was like

325
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 2: if you're going to take a Black Friday deal or whatever,

326
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 2: who would it be? And I was he not that

327
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 2: I don't like Yaz. I just think that he wasn't

328
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 2: in my top three, right Yeah, So, but I mean

329
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 2: another left handed bat obviously he knows how to play

330
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 2: the outfield. Is he the end all be all? No,

331
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: But I don't know that you need an end all

332
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: be all. I mean this is this is a kid

333
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 2: that doesn't have the sexiest average in the world. He's

334
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 2: a two thirty eight lifetime in terms of batting average

335
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 2: OBP of three twenty four, slug four forty seven, ops

336
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 2: seven seventy two. You know, he's he's a serviceable player,

337
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 2: right Obviously, the majority of his time in the National

338
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 2: League with the Giants and then he was with the

339
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 2: Kansas City Royals for a hot second last year. You know,

340
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 2: the guy can give you some doubles. I mean his

341
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 2: his career year in terms of doubles was thirty one

342
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 2: back in twenty twenty two. I mean, he's not a

343
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 2: massive home run hitter, although in twenty twenty one he

344
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 2: did have twenty five long balls. And that's the majority

345
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 2: at least eighty one games in San Francisco, and that's

346
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 2: not easy to do. That's not an easy park to

347
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 2: hit home runs in. But you know, left handed bat

348
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 2: I don't I don't mind it, I don't hate it.

349
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,479
Speaker 2: I mean, he can't be the centerpiece of anything, but

350
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 2: it's kind of bad. Signing. I mean, it all depends

351
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 2: on what they end up doing with ta Oscar I guess,

352
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 2: And if they're going to sign a legit center fielder.

353
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know that they end up going going

354
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: and signing or even landing a legit center fielder. I

355
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: think that's our best case scenarios. For sure they end

356
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,959
Speaker 1: up with a with a buckst In, or maybe they

357
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: signed Cody Bellinger. I think the market's going to be

358
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: that the price tags can be too high on Cody

359
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: for what kind of will almost feel like a somewhat

360
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 1: reduced role for him, even though it's not. But he

361
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 1: is not. He doesn't need to be the star that

362
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: he was in his first go round. And again, if

363
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 1: you're just having somebody who is filling in a spot

364
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: in left field with y and kind of kind of

365
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: lending to to Dave Roberts, he had mentioned other people

366
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 1: had mentioned the idea of bringing in people who hadn't won,

367
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: signing players who hadn't won, and having them kind of

368
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: chase that, you know, chase that want of to win,

369
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: chase a ring and all that kind of stuff, getting

370
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 1: different vibes in there. I could see, but I'm not

371
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 1: a huge fan of it. I'm not a man, not

372
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:42,679
Speaker 1: a huge fan of it.

373
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 2: I'm not against it, but I don't. I mean, he's

374
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 2: not somebody that I'm like, oh my gosh, that that's

375
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 2: a game changer, that's a team changer, you know what

376
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 2: I mean. Like, I just don't. I just don't. I

377
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 2: just don't see that.

378
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,719
Speaker 1: Got an interesting Yeah, I got an interesting thought here

379
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: from slack Rabbit Tim saying this MOOKI Mookie fixed the

380
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: play with a with a move, batting him forth, moving

381
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,879
Speaker 1: him down to the lineup and batting him forth. Of

382
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 1: course that's I don't think it. Is he batting Forth

383
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: by the end of the World Series.

384
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't think that. I think that's

385
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 2: too low.

386
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,440
Speaker 1: I think you know, the Yeah, I know he's moved

387
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: out of the two hole. But yeah, yeah, maybe it was.

388
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 2: But again, I mean it was the World Series feels

389
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 2: like six years ago.

390
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: Honestly, by the way, one month ago today they won,

391
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: So ten years.

392
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 2: Ago today, Dave was ten years ago today Dave was

393
00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 2: announced as the daughter's manager.

394
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: Yeah today. Anyways, Uh no, I I I believe they

395
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: end up moving keeping Mookie back in that two hole

396
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 1: by the time we get to the opening day and

397
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: all this kind of stuff. He's going to be better

398
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: than he was for the majority of last year. We

399
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 1: saw him go on a hot streak, we saw him

400
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 1: find something. He's going to be half healthy. He's going

401
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: to be not needing to worry as much about learning

402
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 1: the shortstop position. Mookie Bets, I don't know is I

403
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 1: don't know if he's gonna be all the way back,

404
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: but Mookie Bets will be back. I'll lay it out now.

405
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 1: He finishes top five and n L MVP voting in

406
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six, throwing it out there, laying down the

407
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: gold Marcus five.

408
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 2: I mean, okay, top five, I can say top three,

409
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: probably not. I guess it's not.

410
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 1: Gonna win show. Hey exists.

411
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 2: He hit fourth in Game six and seven, So thank

412
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 2: you the Juggernaut fifty three, twenty seven. I'm gonna assume

413
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 2: that your correct Gordon names eighteen ninety two Bets Mookie

414
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 2: beat at third in the World Series. Yeah, third, I remember,

415
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,719
Speaker 2: I didn't remember him batting fourth, but that's okay. It's

416
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 2: probably hammered.

417
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's it. You got any particular chats you

418
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: want to hit before I find some of the other

419
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 1: ones that I have laying around saved some.

420
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, how about this one. A lot of

421
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 2: these are related to our thought for the road, So

422
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 2: we'll wait for that, all right. So what about d

423
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 2: Alvarez twenty two? They should sign Walker Buler and turn

424
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 2: him into a closer. He's still good for one or two.

425
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 2: I don't hate that. I don't think Walker would do it, yeah,

426
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 2: because I think, first of all, starters get paid more. Walker,

427
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 2: I would believe, would want to prove himself that he

428
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 2: can still he can still do what he did. But

429
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 2: I don't hate Walker as a closer. I think that

430
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 2: he has such good stuff and one to two innings

431
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 2: if he can harness that fire for the you know,

432
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 2: like an eighth inning or a ninth inning role, I

433
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 2: don't hate that idea. I don't know that it's with

434
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 2: the Dodgers, but I don't hate Walker as a closer.

435
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I uh definitely don't see that that move happening,

436
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 1: just because you know, Walker is still buddy, young enough boy.

437
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 1: He can go out there and try to start. I

438
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 1: don't know if he's got anything left in the tank

439
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,639
Speaker 1: right now, hopefully getting another year removed from that. Tommy

440
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: John he he finds a little bit of something, you

441
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 1: find some consistency. But yeah, much like last offseason, it's

442
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,640
Speaker 1: not gonna be with the Dodgers. And I think now

443
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 1: even even more than it was last year. He he

444
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense for for this uh this pitching staff.

445
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 1: Uh d Alvarez also had brought up and this was

446
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: one of the ones I had saved. They're not trading

447
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 1: glass Now or trading for schoobl I agreed on. I

448
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 1: agree on both. There was there was something that came

449
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 1: out last week of ESPN columnist Jesse Rogers mentioning that

450
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: you know it would or him mentioning that an MLB

451
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: executive said he could see the Dodgers trading from their

452
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: surplus of starting pitching starting pitching, and yeah, it wouldn't

453
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,719
Speaker 1: be glass Now. I I agree more with your idea

454
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: of him it Chian because he's young, to cost controlled,

455
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 1: coming off a good year. Another team's gonna want that

456
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: rather than assuming a lot of Glasnow.

457
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 2: And Glasnow doesn't need to be an ace and that's okay.

458
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 2: He's he's perfect for our number three or number four.

459
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: Mm hm, I agree. Uh. Moving on, David had this

460
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: trade rushing bring back Austin Barnes.

461
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 2: First thing hasn't had enough of a chance to do anything.

462
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 1: They're not all winners. They're not all winners. Indigenous sixty

463
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,360
Speaker 1: nine would love to see Kenlee Jansen back in Dodger uniform,

464
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: mentioned and that he is a Dodger legend, and also

465
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: saying I'd like to see Cody Bellinger, Devin Williams and

466
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,400
Speaker 1: Kenlee Jansen. We talked last week on our Thanksgiving Black

467
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: Friday show about Kenley Jansen. I think I think he

468
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: he makes sense in yeah, filling the Kirby Yates role,

469
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: which they probably kind of don't need.

470
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you also give him a chance every

471
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 2: once and again to get up you know, the saves

472
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 2: that he needs to get up to five hundred. You

473
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 2: know what I mean? Like, I don't. I wouldn't hate

474
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 2: Kenley back, just not as not in a closer role.

475
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 2: You said we don't need a closer, right, we could

476
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 2: have like six or seven.

477
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 1: I really don't think we need. This team needs a close,

478
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: needs a closer. That's the important part is really emphasizing

551
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: My my first uh like media event I did with

552
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: the old job was covering the Poker tournament in twenty

553
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,200

Speaker 1: the right answer.

559
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 2: That's the thing about him is he doesn't always make

560
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 2: the best choices in life, but he does have a

561
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 2: very large heart. He's a very giving and generous human being.

562

563
00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 2: always well executed, let's let's put it that way.

615
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: present the best stuff we possibly can to people and

616
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: then dumb it down a little bit along the way.

617
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: But the best way to know when I'm going to

618
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: be live on my other YouTube channel to go subscribe

619
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: hit that notification. Bell do the same here really helps

620
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 1: us out. But I'm thinking this week we might start

621
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: a series of the always exciting twenty twenty five season grades.

622
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: We've been talking about doing that. This could be this week,

623
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 1: all right, Baseball thought for the road here is and

624
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: it happened. It popped up a whole bunch in the chat,

625
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 1: justin in particular, justin Lamas Yamas, however you say it.

626
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 1: He asked about it, a whole bunch.

627
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, thoughts about Hollywood lifestyle aka Anthony Rendon getting bought

628
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 2: out in Anaheim and retiring and if we signed him

629
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 2: in LA back in twenty nineteen, and his last sentence

630
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 2: is the whole point of this. The Dodgers, no pun intended,

631
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 2: dodged bullet imagine if he wouldn't have said that LA

632
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 2: in terms of La proper was that Hollywood lifestyle that

633
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 2: just didn't suit him.

634
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: Well.

635
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 2: Apparently playing baseball didn't suit him either, because I played

636
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: more games at third for the Angels than Anthony Rendon

637
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 2: did over the tenure of the one of the worst

638
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 2: contracts in baseball history, and much better for Arty Moreno

639
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 2: to have given him that contract, and already, to his credit,

640
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,280
Speaker 2: is given a lot of massive contracts to position players,

641
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 2: not always to pitchers, but to position players, many of

642
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 2: which have not worked out. Josh Hamilton, Albert poolholds, to

643
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 2: a certain extent, Mike Trout only because of the injury situation.

644
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 2: But Mike Trout, you know that he wants to play baseball,

645
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 2: okay it he hates it when he's not on the field.

646
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 2: Anthony Rendon, in my opinion, I don't know him personally,

647
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 2: just couldn't hate the game more than he does. And

648
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 2: maybe I'm completely wrong in that, but the point is

649
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 2: he has not played often for them. He was given

650
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 2: a massive, massive contract to the Washington Nationals credit they

651
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 2: only could take one contract on. They chose to take

652
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,360
Speaker 2: on Stephen Strasburg instead of Anthony Rendon. That served them

653
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 2: well up until the end when Strasburg was like pretty

654
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 2: hurt and had to retire anyway. But I think you

655
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 2: ask anybody in that NAT's front office that was there,

656
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 2: they're glad that they took Strasbourg over Rendon. Rendon has

657
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 2: been a waste of space in Anaheim, and I feel

658
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 2: badly that the fans were subjected to somebody that was

659
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 2: paid that much that again, and he legitimately could have

660
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 2: been hurt. I'm never ishing wishing ill will or hurt

661
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 2: on a player, but he did not present himself well

662
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 2: and the optics of Rendon did not go well. And

663
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,719
Speaker 2: now they have to probably buy out because it's all

664
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 2: guaranteed money in baseball, which I'm fine with, but now

665
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 2: they have to buy out the final year of a

666
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: contract that was an absolute bust. They could have built

667
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,320
Speaker 2: a whole other Disneyland for that shit.

668
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you could have, or he could have

669
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: you know, already could have signed a pitcher two or

670
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: three with that kind of money. Yeah. What a weird

671
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: ending to what was a very bright baseball career, very

672
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,320
Speaker 1: bright baseball future. I mean to think that he essentially

673
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 1: played his last meaningful season as a twenty nine year

674
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 1: old or something like that, and he's been getting paid.

675
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 1: You know, he played the full season in twenty twenty

676
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,440
Speaker 1: fifty eight of the sixty games. Of course did make

677
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:36,080
Speaker 1: the postseason because Angels don't play for the postseason. That's

678
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: another whole conversation there. But yeah, just it's so so

679
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,040
Speaker 1: weird and I love it. The main thing you said there,

680
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 1: most important thing you said there, amongst many great things

681
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 1: you said, was like the presentation of it. That's what

682
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: made it worse. He never once really seemed he never

683
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:55,800
Speaker 1: to feel bad.

684
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,440
Speaker 2: He never ingratiated himself to the fans. And I'm not

685
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 2: saying you have to be you know, you have to

686
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 2: be the I don't even know the word like be

687
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 2: all kumba yat everything, but I mean, my god, at

688
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,399
Speaker 2: least act like you like the game, oh man.

689
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: And you know there are definitely some injuries in there.

690
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: There was definitely some woes. But yeah, the fact that

691
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: he just think.

692
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 2: Of the air conditioning system that Moreno could have put

693
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,600
Speaker 2: in an Angel stadium if he wasn't playing.

694
00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: Somebody said, uh, in the chat here, by the way,

695
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 1: they said a lot of cook in here. Somebody said

696
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,920
Speaker 1: shots fired di Alvarez. Shots fired. Absolutely, And when it

697
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 1: comes to.

698
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 2: The am I wrong, Like I have yet to see

699
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 2: anyone come to the defense of Anthony Rendon, active player,

700
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 2: former player, anybody?

701
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: No, Yeah, just just a just a bad presentation overall.

702
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,240
Speaker 1: Could have been a better career. Uh, couldn't have happened

703
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: to a better organization. So so congrats Anthony Rendon. Whatever,

704
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: it's obviously it's not official. It seems like he going to,

705
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: you know, retire and take some sort.

706
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:07,280
Speaker 2: Of I'm stealing everything but a bag, but well, actually

707
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 2: you did steal a bag, A big bag I would take.

708
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 1: I would take that deal in a heartbeat to not

709
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: have to do a damn thing.

710
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 2: But you know what I wouldn't. I would feel so guilty.

711
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah yeah.

712
00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 2: If if someone gives me a dollar and I don't

713
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 2: pay it back or I don't work for it, I

714
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,760
Speaker 2: feel I feel guilty. Right, So it's like if someone's

715
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,400
Speaker 2: gonna give me that contract and I'm like, I'm worthless

716
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 2: and I can never be on the field, or I

717
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 2: can never do anything to support the team, or at

718
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 2: least like I don't care, I'll do any I'll fix

719
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,759
Speaker 2: the AC I would feel so guilty if someone gave

720
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,320
Speaker 2: me that amount of money and I'd never play.

721
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, wild Tony two bags. Hopefully he likes golf,

722
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: even though he's probably just gonna shot. The best thing

723
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 1: that came out of it, this would be the last thing.

724
00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: The best thing that came out of the entire Rendon

725
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 1: Angel saga is the memes.

726
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 2: The memes have always just been like, I know, I

727
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:02,800
Speaker 2: want a man that doesn't play games.

728
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:08,880
