1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: Because you got right now three other infielders that are

2
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:09,559
Speaker 1: out of position, or maybe defense isn't their strongest suit.

3
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 2: Good afternoon, everybody.

Speaker 3: d C. Of course, covering the Dodgers, as he does

29
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,560
Speaker 3: every single game. Kind enough to join us now from

30
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: National's Park. Dave, thank you so much. I know it's

31
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 3: been a crazy day for you and for the team.

32
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 3: As you guys went to visit the White House, what

33
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 3: was that experience like, welcome back to the show.

34
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: No, it was my first time being behind the gates.

35
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: I've seen the White House but from the park across

36
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 1: the street. So for a radio kid from the San

37
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: Fernando Valley that covers the Dodgers to be in there

38
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 1: definitely was a surreal experience, just to see how all

39
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: of this works behind the scene and when we first

40
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: got there. Obviously, it's a says to even get a

41
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: press credential for this specific event because there's a lot

42
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: of news going on in the world and you see

43
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: all of that happening while this moment for the Dodgers

44
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: is happening as well. Once you get through the security gates,

45
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: you're going to a different security gate, you're giving a

46
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: press badge, and then they take you to the briefing room,

47
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: which is so tiny you wouldn't believe where these major

48
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: news conferences happen. How tiny the press room is, the

49
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: briefing room is. It is not as luxurious as you

50
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: might believe or spacious as you might believe. And then

51
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: from there they took us outside you wait there to

52
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: go into the East room, and man, that place was

53
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: filled up. I would say close to three hundred people

54
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 1: were in that East room and it was politicians from

55
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: different parts of the government that we're there to get

56
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: a glimpse of these rock stars that are the Dodgers.

57
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: So it was a surreal experience just to see how

58
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 1: behind the scenes.

59
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, no question about it.

60
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 3: Obviously the Dodgers not able to go there in twenty

61
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 3: twenty after that World Series win because of COVID and stuff.

62
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 3: Clayton Kershaw spoke as a representative of the Dodgers and

63
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 3: give us a just dave of his speech when Clayton

64
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 3: got up there to address to address that room.

65
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, what was the biggest difference between this visiting twenty

66
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: five and when the Dodgers won in twenty one. Is

67
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: that we were still coming out of the pandemic. So

68
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: the East room was not as crowded. It was a

69
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: limited number of people that were allowed in that East room,

70
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: and so it was it seemed like it meant a

71
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: lot to everybody to be celebrated under normal circumstances. Being

72
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: out of the pandemic is what I mean by normal circumstances,

73
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 1: and certainly the fruits of the fruits of everybody's labor.

74
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 1: You know last year, this is part of the tradition

75
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: of being a world champion, not only get the ring

76
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: ceremony your first or second home game, but also to

77
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: get to go to the White House and you know,

78
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: have that you had the band, the White House Band

79
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: playing We Love La, you know. I mean, those things

80
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: are special, no matter when it is.

81
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 5: To get out of the White House and get back

82
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 5: to the team and what we've seen so far on

83
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 5: the field started the season great Philly hit, a little

84
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,599
Speaker 5: bit of a buzz saw. There maybe some self inflicted

85
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 5: wounds for this team. What's the state of the clubhouse

86
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 5: coming out of that Philly series and heading into a

87
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 5: three game set with the Nets.

88
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: I just think disappointed, right, Clint, because they could have

89
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,719
Speaker 1: They could have swept the Phillies. The Phillies could have

90
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 1: swept them. The Phillies match up really well against the Dodgers.

91
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: They've beaten them nine out of the last eleven times

92
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 1: they've played the Dodgers, so it's not just a blip

93
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: on the screen. The Phillies probably match up best against

94
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. I wouldn't say their bullpen matches up as

95
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: well as the Dodgers, but they're often certainly can take

96
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: advantage of things. And then yesterday obviously very disappointing showing

97
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: by Tyler Glass now to have you know, for a

98
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: lack of better term, a meltdown because of the rain.

99
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you don't see that happen too often. And

100
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 1: that's a little that's a little concerning.

101
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 3: You mentioned Tyler Glass now and dealing with obviously everything

102
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 3: in his cleats in the rain and all of the

103
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 3: stuff on the mound and stuff.

104
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: But it was also Dave.

105
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 3: I think in the first game that they lost, they

106
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 3: kind of ran themselves into outs in terms of running

107
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 3: on the bases, and in this particular game yesterday, it

108
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 3: wasn't just the Glass now meltdown as you called it,

109
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 3: but it was also just so many walks given up

110
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 3: in addition to that meltdown that you had mentioned. But

111
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 3: the Dodgers, honestly, as you mentioned, could have swept the

112
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 3: series at the very least taken two of three from

113
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 3: the fightings. I mean, do they look at it as

114
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 3: like they kind of beat themselves in this series?

115
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, And if you go back to last Wednesday when

116
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: Otani had the walk off home run, the offense came

117
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: to the rescue. So scoring runs is not the issue,

118
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 1: and their offense is going to save them on days

119
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: where they don't play their best. But you know, when

120
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 1: we're looking ahead, we're thinking about how the Dodgers may

121
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: be playing in October, and they still got a long

122
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: way to go to be able to say they're playing

123
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: as well as they were at the end of last

124
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: season as far as the base running goes. And also

125
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 1: the defense has been a little shaky. Andy Pa has

126
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: has been a little shaky in center field. You know,

127
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: the left side of the infield has looked better recently,

128
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: but you know at times looks shaky as well. So

129
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 1: to me, if you're asking what the vulnerabilities of this

130
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: Dodger team are right now. They're making some mental miscues

131
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: and their defense is a little shaky.

132
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, before we dive into that defense a little bit,

133
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,239
Speaker 5: there was one positive spotlight there in that Philly series,

134
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 5: and that was Rokie Susaki getting into the fourth inning,

135
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 5: getting through four innings arguably not arguably his best start

136
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 5: as a big Leaguer's what's kind of your taste on

137
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 5: Rokie Susaki through his first three big league starts trending

138
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 5: in the right direction.

139
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, And after the game he talked about how he

140
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: worked on being more in his legs, using his legs

141
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: more and that obviously helped him because he only had

142
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: two oks and four plus sinnings. So yeah, that was

143
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: a big deal. And don't discount the fact that Austin

144
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: Barnes was his catcher. Barnes had caught the last few

145
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: bullpens and you know, obviously is able to get those

146
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 1: low strikes being a really great receiver, So I think

147
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: that factored into it.

148
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 2: As well, no question about it.

149
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 3: I want to talk to you, Dave about your boy

150
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 3: snell Zilla. He's on the IL obviously with shoulder inflammation

151
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 3: retroactive back to April third and we knew that when

152
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 3: Blake Snell was signed in the offseason was it was

153
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: a big get. This is a guy that you wanted

154
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 3: to have, but they also wanted him to be their

155
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 3: quote unquote workforce. It's a little problematic. I think that

156
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 3: he's already on the il here in April. What do

157
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 3: you make of it?

158
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: I think, look, there's no discounting the fact that Blake

159
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: is not one of the best April pitchers in baseball.

160
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: But he's been dealing with this for you a couple

161
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: of weeks. So it's better to play it on the

162
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: safe side rather than try to push it in March.

163
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: In April. You know, Blake has the experience of understanding

164
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 1: it's a marathon, not a sprint. He'll be there when

165
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 1: it counts the most for the Dodgers, and Dave Roberts

166
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 1: said he doesn't see this lingering too long, probably going

167
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: to miss two starts.

168
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 4: It's not too bad. It's not too bad. I mean,

169
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 4: you want to keep him as healthy as you can.

170
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,239
Speaker 5: Obviously, this is a team that cares more about October

171
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,199
Speaker 5: than April, even though all games are created equal. Getting

172
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 5: back to what we were talking about before, a little

173
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 5: bit of that the defensive we'll call him woes a

174
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 5: little bit. Centerfield definitely did not look pretty for this team.

175
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 5: With Andy paj Has in Philadelphia. There growing pains for

176
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 5: the second year outfielder, for sure. We know, we knew

177
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 5: entering spring training it was going to be a concern.

178
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 5: Maybe Tommy Edmond was going to be the guy who

179
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 5: ended up being, you know, the kind of everyday dude

180
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 5: in center field. But now it is Andy pa Hez,

181
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 5: and you know, the average isn't there, the routes aren't there.

182
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 5: Is this a situation where maybe a little bit of

183
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 5: triple A time could help him get back on track

184
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 5: or what do you think the team's kind of feeling

185
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 5: is right now with.

186
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 1: Paz Well, first and foremost, it's only eleven games. Number two,

187
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: he's not a center fielder. I mean that's not his

188
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: strongest position. So in some ways he's out of position

189
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: because he's a better corner outfielder. So if you saw

190
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 1: him play last year in center, he never he never

191
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 1: had this feel that. You know, it was a smooth

192
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 1: smoth situation defensively, so I'll say that in his defense,

193
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 1: but he's got to hit better. I mean he's hitting

194
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: ninth that's an important spot in the Dodger order. He's

195
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 1: got to get on base somehow, whether it's a walk

196
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: or a hit, because you're turning the lineup over for

197
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: Otani and Mookie and Freddie when he's back. So hitting

198
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: ninth for the Dodgers is a big spot. It's not

199
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: just to throw away spot in the lineup.

200
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 3: And Dave, how much do you think Freddy Freeman being

201
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 3: on the il obviously and having somebody else have to

202
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 3: play first base? So I mean bring Tommy Edmond in

203
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 3: from the outfield to play second where Tommy should be

204
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 3: in center field, so many different positions just because of

205
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 3: the eyes else did to Freddy. How much do you

206
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 3: factor or how much is that a factor in your opinion?

207
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: Well, Tommy's a goal glove second basements. I call him

208
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: the glue because you got right now three other infielders

209
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 1: that are are out of position or maybe defense isn't

210
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: their strongest suit. So Tommy Edmund being at second base

211
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: has been really the biggest strength for the Dodgers infield

212
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: with Freddie Freeman being out. So the reason why the

213
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: Dodgers have Kik at first base, who had a really

214
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 1: nice game yesterday is because they want to keep Munsey

215
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: at third since that's where he's going to play, and

216
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 1: this is a short term thing. Freddy can come off

217
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: the il as soon as the Dodgers returned back from

218
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: this East Coast road trip.

219
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 4: At the end of the week.

220
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: So that's the thinking on why keyk is playing first

221
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: and months he's playing third. But Tommy Edmund and Taoscar

222
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,679
Speaker 1: Hernandez to me are the two biggest unsung heroes of

223
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: this team so far to start the year and even

224
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: last year.

225
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 5: Now you mentioned the phrase out of position, and everybody

226
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 5: has an opinion about Marcus Lynn Betts as the shortstop.

227
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,839
Speaker 5: You mentioned eleven games in still very small sample size,

228
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 5: we're seeing some still some growing pains there for Mookie.

229
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 5: Is it gonna be I'm not questioning Mooki Bets. I'll

230
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 5: never question Mooki Bets again in my life. But is

231
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 5: this something where we see this lasting throughout the season?

232
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 4: Any thoughts about Muki at short.

233
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know. We'll have to wait and see

234
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 1: what the rest of the season brings. But he's getting better.

235
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: I feel like he's getting more comfortable. But you know,

236
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: it's not just about fielding ground balls, right, and making

237
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: throws to first space. There's a feel that is shortstop

238
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: has to have. There's instincts a short stop has to have,

239
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: and most shortstops have it because they played there their

240
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: whole life. I'm talking about cutoffs, I'm talking about relays,

241
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: I'm talking about turning double plays. Those are the type

242
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 1: of things that a lot of people don't realize goes

243
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: into being the most important position on the infield. So

244
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 1: with time, the Dodgers are going to evaluate whether or

245
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: not Mookie gets those feels and being at the right

246
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: place at the right time, rather than just looking at

247
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 1: it simply as is he fielding ground balls and making throws.

248
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I never worry about Mooky bets. I never will

249
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 3: at all. Let me ask you this, Dave before we

250
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 3: let you go, what is the starting pitching plan while

251
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 3: you were there in DC? Obviously with Snell on the IL,

252
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 3: do they have a bullpen game on Wednesday?

253
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 2: Is it a spot start? How do you see that

254
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 2: playing out?

255
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 4: Yeah?

256
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:59,479
Speaker 1: So they need they need a starter tomorrow and Wednesday

257
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 1: They're going to give Yamamoto an extra day off, so

258
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: only one of those can be a bullpen day. And

259
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: we all know if you look at the Dodgers Oklahoma

260
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: City rotation. It's basically a Major League rotation at Triple A,

261
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 1: so they have that luxury to call up any one

262
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,839
Speaker 1: of those guys. Landon Nag, Bobby Miller, Justin Robleski, any

263
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: of those guys. And Matt Sower was activated with the

264
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: intention of him probably being part of something Tuesday or Wednesday.

265
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 3: Well, right, DAVESA from the White House to Dodgers territory.

266
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 3: We appreciate you very much. Thanks for taking the time

267
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,320

268
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 3: so we'll see you soon. Dave, thanks so much.

269
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: All right, guys, thanks a lot of thanks.

Speaker 4: Clint, take it easy, Dave.

271

Speaker 5: David Veasse from joining us from NAT's Park there Alta.

302
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 5: I do want to talk more about this the center

303
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 5: field situation, Andy pai has situation hasn't been a great

304
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 5: start to the season by any stretch of the imagination.

305
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 5: You would imagine you can either have somebody who's hitting

306
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 5: a little bit, or you could have somebody that's fielding

307
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 5: a little bit. He's kind of doing a little bit

308
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 5: of neither, and it seems like when one thing goes bad,

309
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 5: it's sort of snowballing for the team right now. Is

310
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 5: this a situation where we could see maybe the team

311
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 5: to send him back to Triple A a little bit

312
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 5: more seasoning, a little bit more confidence rebuilding for him

313
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 5: perhaps at the end.

314
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 4: Of this road trip.

315
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's going to be the case in

316
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 3: terms of needing some confidence and getting those abs and

317
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 3: some more of defensive routes in the center field or

318
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 3: in the outfield rather in Triple A. I think the

319
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 3: thing is you got to wait until Freddy comes off

320
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 3: of the IL. As Dave s A said, he's eligible

321
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 3: obviously to come off when the team goes back to

322
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 3: Last Angelus, so then they can shift things around the

323
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 3: way that they want to. Freddy goes back to first,

324
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 3: Kik probably goes back to the bench. You know, you

325
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 3: have Tommy Edmund doing what he's supposed to be doing,

326
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 3: so everybody's kind of back into position. But I don't

327
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 3: know what's been worse right now is the offense or

328
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 3: lack thereof for Andy Pats And again to Dave's point,

329
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 3: it's only been eleven games, but some of the routes

330
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 3: that he's been running have been very problematic and very

331
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 3: head scratching. I know one guy was saying that, you know,

332
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 3: Christian Sanchez or whoever, Christopher Sanchez or whatever, throw a

333
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 3: knuckleball and you know, then he was like, you know,

334
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 3: the route was all over the place. But I'm like,

335
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: it just it doesn't look like he's comfortable out there.

336
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 3: He doesn't look comfortable in the box, and he doesn't

337
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 3: look comfortable defensively. So I would not be surprised if

338
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 3: they do send him down. Who do you bring up?

339
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 2: Do you give outman a shot?

340
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 3: Like, what's the corresponding move there?

341
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, this kind of comes back to the fact that

342
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 5: the Dodgers didn't necessarily execute a center field plan for

343
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 5: this season. I mean, we heard, you know, at FanFest,

344
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 5: we heard entering spring training that Tommy Edmund was gonna

345
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 5: be the guy. Of course, uh, hess On Kim kind

346
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 5: of struggling out of the gate during spring training. Uh,

347
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 5: sort of change that plan in my opinion. But having

348
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 5: Edmund at second base has been phenomenal. But right now,

349
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,719
Speaker 5: if you're looking at this roster, he's kind of the

350
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 5: only guy that can give you some offense. And I'm

351
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 5: not I hate the idea of moving Edmund out of

352
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 5: second base because I think he's doing a phenomenal job there,

353
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 5: but he's the only guy who can give you some

354
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,719
Speaker 5: offense and actually play a quality to above average center field.

355
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 5: With mentioning James Autman, he's somebody who's not really hitting

356
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 5: at Triple A.

357
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 4: Didn't hit during spring training. I think Outman is one.

358
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 5: F at Triple A so far with a five point

359
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 5: fifty two or sorry, a five forty two ops po

360
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 5: has weird, you know, struggling at the big league level.

361
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 5: Hesse On Kim is doing better offensively at Triple A.

362
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:53,919
Speaker 5: It seems like some of the changes are kind of

363
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 5: starting to, uh, starting to work their way into his swing,

364
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 5: into his contact with the baseball. But that's another situation

365
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 5: where Hessan Kim is not a center fielder as well.

366
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 5: And if we're talking about a team trying to go

367
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 5: back to back in terms of World Series championships, to

368
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 5: not have a championship level center fielder. I do wonder

369
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 5: if this is something that could bite them in the

370
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 5: ass sooner rather than later, because on both sides in

371
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 5: the outfield edmen Taoskersh a right fielder or a left fielder,

372
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,159
Speaker 5: and Michael Confordo at this point in his career as

373
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 5: a right fielder or a left fielder very.

374
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 4: Thin at center.

375
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 3: No, I don't think you move right field and left

376
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 3: field around. I think you leave Confordo and left. I

377
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 3: think you leave ta Oscar and right. I think you

378
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 3: get Hasan Kim back up here. Perhaps you know, there's

379
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 3: some rumors. Of course he's getting hugs, handshakes, high fives

380
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 3: and the dugout.

381
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: Perhaps that means that he's he's coming back up to

382
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 2: the big league level.

383
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 3: But a three zero eight average with the nine thirty

384
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 3: eight ops there in the minor league, so he has

385
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 3: been contributing offensively. He's playing a good second baseman there.

386
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,360
Speaker 3: Perhaps they bring him to second, which is why they

387
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 3: signed him to begin with, and then they put Tommy Edmund,

388
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,879
Speaker 3: who's obviously an elite second basement a gold glove second basement.

389
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,159
Speaker 3: Maybe you put Tommy Edmond in center field because they

390
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 3: knew that he is versatile. Again, it's it's amazing how

391
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 3: one domino affects the entire team. Freddy goes down and

392
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 3: it just completely changes the complexion of the team. But again,

393
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 3: it's been eleven games. They've only lost two of the eleven,

394
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 3: and again I think both of those losses were self inflicted.

395
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: I mean, head's heads are not falling off.

396
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 2: Yet, guys. But again, you know, we are always nitpicking.

397
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 3: When you have a team that is this good, you

398
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 3: try to find whatever hole that they have and you

399
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 3: try to fill that hole.

400
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, the expectations again very different for this team. You

401
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,439
Speaker 5: can't really well you can't. You can play around right

402
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 5: now early in the season with let's say Mookie Bets

403
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 5: and I'm not questioning Mookie Bets as a shortstop at all.

404
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 5: You could play around with seeing what you still have

405
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,199
Speaker 5: in somebody like you know, Max once he getting his

406
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 5: feet under him again as at third base and in

407
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 5: the lineup with the bat and all this kind of stuff.

408
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 5: But eventually down the road, I think center field is

409
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 5: going to be that area where it's either going to

410
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 5: be center field or second base that they need to

411
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,199
Speaker 5: figure out something because Tommy Eman could play both of those. Uh,

412
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 5: he could play both of those very very well, has

413
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 5: a gold glove, has hardware at one of those positions.

414
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 5: But you also have a lot of second basement, whether

415
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 5: it be keithk Hernandez, Chris Taylor, hess On Kim then

416
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 5: they all can play the position very well. Center field again,

417
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 5: this is going to be that spot where right now

418
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 5: it's super early in the season, but we need to

419
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 5: identify areas of concern for two, three, four months from now.

420
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 3: All right, So Freddy Freeman, this is a kid that

421
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 3: always posts right every single day.

422
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 2: He wants to be out there.

423
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 3: He played incredibly, incredibly hurt on the It is super

424
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 3: weird not having him in the lineup. He's on the

425
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 3: il minor injury, obviously slipped in the shower or whatever.

426
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 3: I don't ever worry about Freddy Freeman and his durability.

427
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: Is there any concern for you in terms of that.

428
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 5: I don't know that there's there's concern with it. I

429
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 5: mean a little bit, because they did say entering the

430
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 5: season like his ankle hissurgically repaired ankle was not going

431
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 5: to be right until maybe All Star break and now

432
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:16,120
Speaker 5: we have a setback with this this shower incident. So

433
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 5: it is something where I mean, it's Freddy Freeman. He's

434
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,439
Speaker 5: not the most fleet of foot, you know at this

435
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 5: point in his career. He's Yeah, he stole twenty bags

436
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 5: a couple of years ago, but that's not necessarily his game,

437
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 5: he said during fan Fast he had pointed out, look,

438
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 5: it always looks.

439
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:33,440
Speaker 4: Like I'm injured when I'm running.

440
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,919
Speaker 5: Anyways, as long as he's able to go station station

441
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 5: or go first to third, he's also Freddie Freeman. He's

442
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,239
Speaker 5: gonna find a way to score, like we saw him

443
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 5: score during the I think it was during the World

444
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 5: Series where rookie Bats had to kind of hold him

445
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 5: and brace him after running all the way from first.

446
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 5: But I love the idea of letting it kind of

447
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 5: rest and marinate now, getting this ankle thing.

448
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 4: Out of the way before it.

449
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 5: Becomes serious issue for him. But hopefully this ten days down,

450
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 5: these ten days down do help him where it's not

451
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 5: going to be an issue and he could be in

452
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 5: there the rest of the way, because again, it's very

453
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 5: weird not seeing Freddy Freeman in this lineup every single day.

454
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:15,120
Speaker 4: Because that's just what he does.

455
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, So we started a poll over on

456
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 3: our YouTube page.

457
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:19,920
Speaker 2: Check it out.

458
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 3: We want to know if you want PAHs to give him,

459
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 3: give him a chance. We should we relax when it

460
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,439
Speaker 3: comes to PAHs or should we send Andy Pahes to

461
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 3: the moon?

462
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 4: Not both?

463
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:30,239
Speaker 2: One thing.

464
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 3: One thing I will take away from the series against

465
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 3: the Philadelphia Phillies. I wish I said this the other day.

466
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 3: I wish we would have more laughers. I wish we

467
00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 3: didn't have to constantly come from behind and have these

468
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 3: unbelievable comeback wins or walk off wins. While they are fun,

469
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 3: they are also nerve wracking. So let's get a couple

470
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,720
Speaker 3: of laughers in there. But one thing I do take

471
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 3: away as a positive is that they do continue to

472
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 3: come back despite not having a full lineup with Freddy

473
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 3: Freeman out and Blake Snell on the shelf. Now, they

474
00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 3: do continue to come back and fight and claw, and

475
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 3: let's not have to do that against the Nats. But

476
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,120
Speaker 3: I guess that's a positive.

477
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, this is a good team to get

478
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 4: right against.

479
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 5: I don't know how much you need to get right

480
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 5: when you're nine to two, but playing the what three

481
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,840
Speaker 5: and six Nationals. I feel like the Dodgers are in

482
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 5: a good spot to really capitalize. I had asked for

483
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 5: a sweep last Thursday when I was just sticking around.

484
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 5: I wanted them to sweep in Philly. I think you can,

485
00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 5: and you kind of have to sweep in Washington. Just

486
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 5: to listen, Hey, nan O West, we're seeing right now

487
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 5: the Dodgers are not in first place.

488
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 4: Right now. The San Francisco Giants are leading the National League.

489
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 3: Well that's only because that's only because the San Francisco

490
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 3: Giants have played one fewer game, So the Dodgers have

491
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 3: two losses, the Giants only have one. But the Giants

492
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 3: have played one fewer game than the Dodgers have too,

493
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 3: so that's I mean whatever.

494
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 4: I'm just saying.

495
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 5: I want to see them get themselves mentally back on track.

496
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 5: Play better baseball, cleaner baseball, none of those unforced errors

497
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 5: like we saw in Philly, and really in the final

498
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 5: game where shohe had to do his heroics on Bobblehead

499
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 5: Night to walk off and keep that undefeated start to

500
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 5: the season alive.

501
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 4: Play better baseball. You all feel a lot better.

502
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 5: And maybe that does start with sending Andy pays to

503
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 5: the moon or something like that at some point in time.

504
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 5: But how are you feeling, by the way, how do

505
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 5: you feel. I agree scarletand Blues is overreacting. I am

506
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,199
Speaker 5: overreacting because that's what we're kind of here to do

507
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,040
Speaker 5: a little bit on a Monday before the start of

508
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 5: a series against a bad team. Alana, what do you

509
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 5: think sweep you're taking this series? How do you feel

510
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 5: about this before we get to last legs?

511
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:32,439
Speaker 2: Now?

512
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 3: I think I think we definitely take the series. It's

513
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 3: hard to sweep on the road. It's hard to sweep,

514
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 3: you know, yeah, a team on the road.

515
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 2: So I'm going to go yeah. I mean, I want

516
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 2: to say I can take two of three.

517
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 3: But I honestly do think we could have beat We

518
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 3: could have swept Philly, I really do. They don't have

519
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 3: a very good bullpen. The Philadelphia Phillies do not have

520
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:53,479
Speaker 3: a good bullpen.

521
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, the fact that they were able to come back

522
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 5: multiple times Dustin may to night. Looking forward to that,

523
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 5: by the way, for your Los Angeles Legers game too.

524
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 5: But all that aside, guys, Alana, what do you think

525
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 5: we should get into last licks?

526
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 2: Let's do it.

527
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,679
Speaker 3: All, right, guys, You've been introduced to him before, but

528
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 3: I want to introduce you to Chip once again. This

529
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 3: little boy is one years old. He's being fostered in

530
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 3: the West Kovina area. He was dumped by somebody and

531
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 3: he has now gotten his second round of shots. He's

532
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 3: coming up. I'm getting a newter. We just have to

533
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 3: pick up a sedative on Monday because he does not

534
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 3: like being examined. So he's a good, good dog. He

535
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 3: loves kids, he loves other dogs. He's incredibly smart. If

536
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,640
Speaker 3: you are interested in adopting this one year old mixed

537
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,239
Speaker 3: breed pup by the name of Chip, reach out to

538
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 3: me on my social or Gidry's Guardian Dodge or all right,

539
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 3: what do you have coming up on your show? Before

540
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 3: we get to that, though, here's a baseball thought for

541
00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 3: the road. What do you think about Anthony Bonda? If

542
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 3: you would have had Anthony as the leader in wins

543
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 3: in Major League Baseball, would you have picked that?

544
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 5: Of course I talked to him during spring training. I

545
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 5: gave him that good juju we got. We got synergy

546
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 5: going right there. But the real ab another one we'll

547
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 5: call the real ab here. Bonda leading leading baseball.

548
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,479
Speaker 4: With three wins. That's pretty funny.

549
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 5: People say wins don't mean anything. Wins mean something to me.

550
00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 5: Even if a pitcher's going in there and well, he

551
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,159
Speaker 5: hasn't vultured any he's just been that guy who's who's

552
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 5: come in after a short start from somebody or whatever.

553
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 5: I don't know, I'm going nowhere with this, but I

554
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,640
Speaker 5: love Anthony Bonda. I love that, and also it means

555
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 5: absolutely nothing.

556
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know.

557
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 3: Here's here's something that also means absolutely nothing. The poll

558
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 3: has been completed. We got fifty votes, forty six percent

559
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 3: say relax, it's April, and they're nine to two. Fifty

560
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 3: four percent of the vote say send them to the moon.

561
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 3: So obviously we got a lot of I got a

562
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,119
Speaker 3: lot of folks overreacting.

563
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 2: On on PAHZ.

564
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 3: But there you have it, all right. What's coming up

565
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 3: on All Dodgers with Clint Pacius tonight?

566
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 4: Well today it is an early game.

567
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 5: So instead of trying to force a pregame show where

Speaker 5: too and oh on the season. Don't remember if he

573
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,400
