1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: If he needs to take a couple of days, take 2 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: a week into the regular, normal, everybody's playing season. I'm 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: perfectly fine with it, but it's definitely a concern. 4 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 2: The song gets me every time. Hello everybody, and welcome 5 00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 2: to a fresh new episode of Dodgers Territory. Clint Pisias, 6 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 2: Alana Rizzo.

Rate us five stars. 9 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 2: We appreciate it as we make our way to over 10 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,279 Speaker 2: ten thousand subs on YouTube. Appreciate you, guys. We've got 11 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 2: a lot to talk about, Clint. Game start for real tomorrow. 12 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 2: Let's get right into the big ticket before we get 13 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: into the actual game on the field. Some concerning news 14 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 2: about All Star shortstop, All Star right fielder, All Star catcher, 15 00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 2: All Star everybody Mooky Betts dealing with some sort of illness, 16 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 2: and Dave Roberts said he will not play in either 17 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 2: of the Tokyo games this week. He did not end 18 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 2: up taking part in today's workout. This was yesterday. According 19 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 2: to Jack Harris, he's contemplating the team's actually contemplating sending 20 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 2: him back early. He's expected to be ready for the 21 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 2: domestic opener. That does not say Clint he will be 22 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 2: ready for the final exhibition games against the Angels. So 23 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,119 Speaker 2: ready for the domestic opener. But folks are saying that Mooki, 24 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 2: who's not a massively large human anyway, has already lost 25 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 2: fifteen pounds. First of all, we hope you're okay. We 26 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: hope Muki's health is of course the utmost important. But 27 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 2: how concerned are you about this? 28 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: You definitely have a little bit of concern here. Like 29 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: you said, he is not the biggest boy in general, 30 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: and to lose fifteen pounds trying to make a position 31 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 1: a position switch. He's somebody who hits in the top 32 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: part of this order, somebody who has some pop for 33 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,639 Speaker 1: this lineup as well. It's important to have him healthy, 34 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: have as much strength as possible, so they need to 35 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: focus on getting him right. We don't know what is 36 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: affecting him. It sounds like some sort of you know, 37 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: flu like symptoms, whatever that entails. Of course, when we 38 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: were out in Arizona, we didn't really see him the 39 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: final two games that they had out there in Arizona, 40 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: so you and I were kind of discussing that, not 41 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: seeing him in the locker room, like, hey, what's going 42 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: on here? We heard Maybe he's busy doing something else. 43 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: I think he's been dealing with this a little bit 44 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,959 Speaker 1: longer than what they are letting on, what the organization 45 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: is letting on. But give him time. I have no 46 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: problem if he plays in any of those Angels games. 47 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: I don't even need to see him in the opening 48 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: day lineup for the domestic home opener if he needs 49 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: to take a couple of days, take a week into 50 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 1: the regular normal everybody's playing season to you know, eat 51 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: some burgers, get right, get healthy, get the strength going, 52 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: get that man's strength going, the dad's strength going again. 53 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: I'm perfectly fine with it, but it's definitely a concern. 54 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: You're glad it's out of the way now, or at 55 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: least it happens now. It's not happening towards the end 56 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: of the season, into the spring train or into the postseason, 57 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: and then you have a lot of problems with that. 58 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: But it's definitely something where you got you gotta kind 59 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: of swint your eyes a little bit and let's watch this. 60 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 3: I'm watching you, mookie. Where are you at with it? 61 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? I didn't see him the entire time we were 62 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 2: at camel Back Branch, and we were with the Dodgers 63 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 2: on Monday and on Tuesday, and I didn't see Mooki 64 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 2: at all. There was not a Mookie bet siding. That 65 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: could very well just be because I wasn't in the 66 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 2: same place as that he was. But I'm concerned for 67 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 2: his health now domestic opener. I mean, that's ten days 68 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: away from today. If Mooki Bets isn't right in ten days, 69 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 2: something's really going on. So I'm hopeful Again, I'm with you. 70 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: I don't care if he plays against the Angels, but 71 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 2: he'd better be in that opening day lineup because if 72 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 2: he's not, something is seriously wrong. And I don't care 73 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 2: what handedness the pitcher is that we're going up against 74 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: against the Detroit Tiger's, mook needs to be in there. 75 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 2: But again, that's the thing about this Dodger club. Next 76 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 2: man mentality, next man up, and that will be Miguel Rojas. Obviously, 77 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: Clint at short for both of the games in Tokyo, 78 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: going up against Immenaga on the first game. Obviously, who 79 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: is the who were they starting for the second game? 80 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 2: The Cubbies I haven't. 81 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: I think I saw it was gonna be just in Steel. 82 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: So you're facing two lefties, and that you lefties. 83 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 2: So Miggie's in in the lineup, which I like that 84 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: of course. 85 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, Miggie Road there, Tommy Edmund at second base, and 86 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: I believe we're gonna see a lot of Andy Pai 87 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: has in center field for those first two games, and 88 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: then whatever happens. I'm assuming, you know, Trek Scooble will 89 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: open the domestic home opener for the Tigers, so there'll 90 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: be a lot of lefties the first couple of days, 91 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: the first couple of meaningful games that count for the Dodgers. 92 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: So getting Miggi in that lineup as well. We talked 93 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: to him, we're gonna play that video a little bit 94 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: later in the show. Miggie looks good, and Meggie looks 95 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: ready had himself a really, really nice spring. Also when 96 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: we saw him, you guys are seeing the video wearing 97 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: a nasty bruise on that left arm, so he definitely 98 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: wore one for the team. But again, and that's kind 99 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: of what I was getting to there, missing Mooky for 100 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: a couple of days or even a week of season 101 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 1: if they have to open the season with him on 102 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: the injured list, which that might be a little bit 103 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: of a reach. I'm okay with him being right rather than. 104 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 3: Forcing his way in there. We saw him. 105 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure you've seen video out there, Alana, like in Japan, 106 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: he's walking around. He was on the field trying to 107 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: get some work in. But he had mentioned, you know, 108 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: the fatigue setting in pretty early, and you don't want 109 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 1: him to get himself injured trying to make plays at 110 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: a position he's still you could say, still learning, still 111 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: trying to get good at perfect The craft is a shortstop. 112 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: Get him right, throw him out there when he's fully 113 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: ready and fully healthy. 114 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, for all we know he had bad sushi. 115 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 2: I don't know. I just want to make sure that 116 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: he's okay, and I want to see him in that 117 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: opening day lineup. Aside from the Bets news though, Clint 118 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 2: Tokyo has been one heck of a vibe. I mean 119 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: all of the videos everywhere, not only from the Dodgers 120 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 2: and the Cubs posting, but their reporters and you know, 121 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 2: and just all the players themselves posting or interviews and 122 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: footage of everything going on in Japan. I am so 123 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 2: jully that we are not there in Tokyo. 124 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: What you tried, you tried. 125 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 2: And nobody listened to me. 126 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 3: Nobody. 127 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: I want to tell you this woman tried very very 128 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 1: hard to get on that plane. She was willing to 129 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: jump into land. 130 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: And next, you know, carry on, I roll myself up 131 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: and get into one of those Dodgers equipment bags. I'll 132 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 2: do whatever we. 133 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 3: Can work on the yoga. 134 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, yeah, it's certainly not flexible enough to 135 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 2: be in those bags. But how about show hey second 136 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 2: at bat goes yard at the Tokyo Dome. I mean, 137 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 2: this isn't that you can't write this better, right? 138 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 4: No? 139 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 3: I mean seeing him go yard. 140 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: And we got to point out again this is a 141 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 1: dude who's not very far removed from a significant enough 142 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: shoulder injury that required surgery in the off season. So 143 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: to see him already out there swinging, and we know 144 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: they slowed down his pitching progression so he could work 145 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: on getting the swing back, getting the timing back, and 146 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: to see him, you know, he he fired off a 147 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: homer in his first spring training game against the Angels 148 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 1: a couple about a week or so ago, and to 149 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: see him going yard against you know, a team in 150 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: his in his home country.

Muki 154 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 2: was sick for the last couple of Zono games. I know, 155 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: I was trying to make a joke, just because they're 156 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 2: in Tokyo, and there we call it Japanese food, or 157 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 2: here we call it Japanese food. There they just call 158 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 2: it food. How about some decent final tune ups from 159 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: Snell and glasnow likely to be the domestic starters in 160 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 2: Games one and two against Trek Skuble and the like. 161 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 2: In Game two Snell four point one or for an inning, 162 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 2: four and a third inning good Lord four and third inning, 163 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: two walks, seven k's Glass now three innings, one hit, 164 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 2: zero earned runs, one walk in six k's. How do 165 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 2: we feel now, knowing that we have Yoshinobu Yamamoto, rookie Sasaki, 166 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: Blake Snell, and Tyler glasnow the first four games that count, obviously, 167 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: how do we feel that the season is upon us? 168 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 3: Happy? 169 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: I am ready? I am ready for real baseball. I 170 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: am tired of fake baseball, even as you know the 171 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: Tokyo Series or the exhibition games are. And admittedly I 172 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: was in Arizona partying with the boys, having a bevy 173 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: or seven while out there, I was not staying up 174 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: to watch a three am game, and we were too 175 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: busy to watch the eight pm game. But they won 176 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: one show, Hey went yard and the guys got their 177 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: final Snell and Glass now got their final fake tune 178 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: ups in or the tune ups fake starts in. And 179 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: they came out. 180 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 3: Of it healthy. That's the most important thing. They came 181 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: out of it healthy. 182 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: And we know, learning from Dave Roberts last week when 183 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: we sat down with him. 184 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 3: A week ago. 185 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 1: Today, Dustin May will be the fifth guy in that rotation. 186 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: He's hanging back in Arizona. He did get some work 187 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: in as well while others were getting work in in Japan. 188 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: This is a team that's ready and that's that was 189 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 1: I think the through line you and I could both 190 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: agree on that. We heard from everybody in that clubhouse 191 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: at Camel Back Ranch. They are ready to go. They 192 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: are ready to run it back. They are feeling good. 193 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: They're excited about the series, but more so excited about 194 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: getting this team back together along with the new pieces, 195 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: ready to again be the first team to win back 196 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: to back World Series since the Yankees in ninety nine 197 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: to two thousand and they are a club that is well. 198 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 3: Equipped to do so well. 199 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 2: I think you mentioned the new guys, and that's what's 200 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 2: most exciting, right It's one thing when you have the 201 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 2: veteran leadership around that clubhouse that has done it, you know, 202 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 2: been there, done that, the Dodgers doing so last year, 203 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 2: winning the World Series in a full season, so there 204 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 2: is no asterisk. But you also have some guys in 205 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 2: the clubhouse that are I guess new blood, you know, 206 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 2: kind of injecting some new blood and some new energy 207 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 2: into the clubhouse. Guys that we talked to and we 208 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 2: showed you on Thursday when we ran the Sound of Tanner, 209 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 2: Scott Kirby Yates obviously, just guys that are still chomping 210 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 2: at the bit, still hungry. There's a good, really good 211 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 2: mix of infusion of the veteran players that have already 212 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 2: won a World Series championship, some multiple Mookie Bets of 213 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 2: the World, Clayton Kershaws of the world. By the way, 214 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: somebody was asking Steven Munios was asking any word on 215 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: my boy Kersh. Yeah, I mean he's there. He's in 216 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 2: Tokyo with the fam Ellen and all four of the 217 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 2: kids are having a great time. Kershaw is ahead of schedule. 218 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 2: I don't want to say that. Let me let me 219 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 2: stop that right there, because then if he doesn't come 220 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 2: back exactly when he's supposed to. But I had a 221 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: conversation with Rick Honeycutt, who was watching We were all 222 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: watching Kersh's bullpen session in Arizona, and Rick was there 223 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: as a special assistant whatever and just talking about I mean, 224 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 2: the stuff is definitely there. I mean, Kersh still has 225 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: a little bit of numbness in the foot in which 226 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 2: he had the surgery on, so he's not one hundred percent, 227 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: but I mean he he will be likely ready to 228 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 2: come back in June. Again, you don't need Kersh on 229 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 2: to the second half of the season, but I do 230 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 2: think that he will. You know, he'll be ready. He's 231 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: probably sooner than we all thought he was going to 232 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 2: be ready. So good news there about Kersh. Again, the 233 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 2: influx of new energy I think is great. We're gonna 234 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,719 Speaker 2: hear coming up from Anthony Bonda in just a little bit, 235 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 2: as we didn't get to hear from him on Thursday. 236 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 2: We're also gonna hear coming up from Will Smith and 237 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 2: as well as Miguel Rojas. How about we switched gears 238 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: now to behind the scenes. 239 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: Let's do it. 240 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 2: All right before we get into the sound from Miggy 241 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 2: row and Big Willie style. What do you think about 242 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: the first round of position cuts? There was a name 243 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,839 Speaker 2: on there that kind of surprised me a little bit, 244 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 2: the Los Angeles Dodgers. This was a few days ago, 245 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 2: about six days ago, their first round right handed pitcher 246 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 2: Bobby Miller and fielder outfielder Hey Song Kim, and they 247 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 2: reassigned right hand or Giovanni Diego's catcher Dalton Rushing, that's 248 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 2: your boy in fielder's David Body, and Michael Chavs and 249 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 2: outfielder Eddie Rosario to minor league camp. 250 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: Any surprises on here, yeah, not the first round of 251 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: cuts that this was almost like a final round of cuts, 252 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: I guess. 253 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 3: We should say so. 254 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: To clarify on that part, we can also add after 255 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 1: I think it was game one or game two of 256 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: the exhibition series Hunter Fidusha on this list, No, I 257 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: would say, no surprising names. The only surprise coming from 258 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: it for me is they aren't going with any of 259 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: the non roster guys. I thought maybe somebody like a 260 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: body who you know, you talk to a little bit 261 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: out there at camel Back, having himself had himself a 262 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: pretty nice spring. Eddie Rassario obviously has some major league experience, 263 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,079 Speaker 1: has some show pop has done it at. 264 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 3: The big league level. 265 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: For a while, I thought maybe they would give them 266 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of a chance, give him some run 267 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: early in the season, but they decided to stay internal, 268 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: stay with the guys that are ready on that forty 269 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: man roster, Stay with guys we saw a lot last year, 270 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: and I think to me, the biggest factor in that 271 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: was Hessan Kim not really being ready for prime time 272 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: from the jump. And I think I don't know how 273 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: much they expected Kim to be ready, like on day one. 274 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure they hoped, but they knew. You know, he 275 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: came into camp and they revamped the swing almost immediately. 276 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: And if you're going through wholesale swing changes and be like, 277 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: oh yeah, no, can you get this done in about 278 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: three weeks? Thanks be ready to hit, you know, players 279 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: you've never seen. But I think Kim was the factor 280 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: that sort of changed everything. So now you mix and 281 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: Mookie beck bets being six, Row gets the start uh 282 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 1: at at second bay or at shortstop, and then you're 283 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: gonna have Tommy Edmond now moving back to second base 284 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 1: where he's won a couple of gold gloves, and then 285 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: Andy po has Dave Roberts had mentioned the bare minimum 286 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: is gonna be starting against lefties, but he's gonna be well. 287 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: When we eventually see all it said and done, he 288 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: will be the opening day center. 289 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 3: Fielder for this club. And they're gonna be ready to go. 290 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: They have enough depth, they have enough pieces there to 291 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 1: make to make do with what they have. And that 292 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: comes to how this front office built this roster with 293 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: guys like Pohz, but also keeping miggi Row around, good 294 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: good friend here on the Foul Network and uh here 295 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: on Dodgers territory and and miggi Row, you know, he 296 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: he sees final couple seasons of his career, uh you 297 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 1: know ahead of him here. This is his final season 298 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: under contract technically with the Dodgers, and he could have 299 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,199 Speaker 1: another really really good season back healthy. 300 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 3: And I think that's some of the stuff. 301 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: If you guys had talked about right just being ready 302 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 1: to go and ready to play wherever the team needs him. 303 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 2: Well, the thing is, when we found out that Kim 304 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 2: was being you know, reassigned or whatever it was, I 305 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 2: do think that I was not that concerned. We talked 306 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: about it in our production meeting. Right, it's like a 307 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 2: three year, twelve million dollar deal or whatever it is. 308 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: It's not like they're spending fifty billion dollars on this guy. 309 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 2: And then, oh, by the way, he's starting in the 310 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 2: minor leagues. But I mean, yeah, he has to figure 311 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 2: out a way for the bat to catch up to 312 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 2: the glove. We already know that he is kind of 313 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: projected as a gold Glove infield or middle infielder, but 314 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 2: until the bat gets up to big league level, that's 315 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: where he's going to get the most at bats, right 316 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 2: is in the minor leagues to get in the most 317 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 2: reps as possible. And again, this is the one thing 318 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 2: this team has is versatility and depth, and they have 319 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 2: a ton of infielders that they have to find at 320 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 2: bats for and they have to find places for. So 321 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 2: I'm not certainly, I'm certainly not worried about that. But 322 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: in terms of Miguel Rojas. You and I have had 323 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: many conversations with him. He's a big friend of the program, 324 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 2: big friend of foul Territory in general. We spoke to 325 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 2: him in the Dodgers' clubhouse on Monday or Tuesday or whatever. 326 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: It was just talking about you know what it is 327 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 2: when he looks around that clubhouse and how this team 328 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 2: does in fact run it back. Let's take a list 329 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 2: in the MIDI row Magi. When I think of you, 330 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 2: I think of a veteran leader in this club and 331 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: you look around you. Obviously there's a lot of guys 332 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: that are incredibly accomplished, but there's also some guys that 333 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 2: have had some new added some new blood into this team. Tanner, 334 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 2: Scott Kirbyates, Michael Conforto, those types of guys. What makes 335 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: you believe that this is a group to run it back? 336 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 5: To be honest with you, all these guys bring something 337 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 5: different than than what we have last year. Obviously, we 338 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 5: want it all and we are World Eriers champions, but 339 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 5: a lot of those guys aren't.

How have you seen that developed? 383 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean having a full off season under his 384 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 5: spell now and the spirits from the last couple of 385 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,679 Speaker 5: years playing for A for a few games in twenty 386 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 5: three and then last year he played a good amount 387 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 5: of games, get him the experience, you know, and and 388 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 5: getting those reps to feel comfortable going into all season 389 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 5: knowing what he needs to work on. What I'm saying 390 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 5: from him is a guy who's way more comfortable at 391 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 5: the position, knowing what he wants to do instead of 392 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 5: like copying someone else. And I'm happy for that because 393 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 5: he deserves to be the best on the field. He 394 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 5: always gotta be one of the most electric, electrifying players 395 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 5: on the field. But a sure stup is a little 396 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 5: bit different. You know. You have to kind of like, 397 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 5: like you say, you have to grow up and in 398 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 5: born with some kind of ability to play short. But 399 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 5: he's learning his way, and uh, he's really good at it, 400 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 5: and I'm putting my money on him. 401 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 2: When you think about this club, you immediately think versatility. 402 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody on this team just plays one position, 403 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 2: you know, other than I think maybe you should start catching. 404 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 2: But you look at Tommy Edmund. He could be your 405 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 2: you know, starting centerfielder, he could be your starting second basement. 406 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 2: You just never know where you guys are going to 407 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,679 Speaker 2: be on the diamond. How have you seen his versatility 408 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 2: help this club? 409 00:18:58,520 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 3: Yeah? 410 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 5: I told me when as soon as he he got 411 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,360 Speaker 5: here last year, we knew he was going to help 412 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 5: the team in whatever capacity with say him playing right 413 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 5: field in the past with the with the Cardinals and 414 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 5: come in and play short the last couple of game, 415 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 5: last couple of innings of the game. So we want 416 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 5: to ward years with him playing short stup last year 417 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 5: and it's not even his uh, his first position. You know, 418 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 5: he's a goal glover, a second base. Really excited about 419 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 5: Tommy helping the team. And he's just an unsof each guy, 420 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 5: you know, like he will do whatever it takes for 421 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 5: for this team to be better. And that's one of 422 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 5: the things that make us really strong that we got cit, 423 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 5: we got Kiki. We gotta move all around the outfield myself. 424 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 5: We can play different positions, and we we bout on 425 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 5: playing time that way, you know, it's something happening in 426 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 5: the on the field. With anybody that plays the first 427 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 5: game of the year, it doesn't matter. We're going to 428 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 5: have more players, and I think our team is in 429 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 5: a really good back. 430 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 2: Keeps you hungry.

MVP 513 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 4: Cy Young's guys that could win one and that haven't. 514 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 4: So obviously a lot of talent. But you know, great coaches, 515 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 4: great staff, great great organization, you know, from the top 516 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 4: to bottom. So you know, we're excited. Obviously, just gonna 517 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 4: be a long year, have to deal with probably injuries, 518 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 4: adversity and all that, but you know it's it's our 519 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 4: goal every year to win World Series and and we 520 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 4: know what it takes obviously from the last from last 521 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 4: year and all that. But uh, you know it's not 522 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 4: gonna be easy. We know that, so we're up. We're 523 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 4: up for the fight every single night. 524 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 2: I think this is such a good mix of obviously 525 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 2: veteran presence guys that have done some pretty amazing things, 526 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 2: but also some guys that are hungry, you know, and 527 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 2: the Tanner Scott's, the Kurby Eates of the world. I mean, 528 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 2: some of the complimentary pieces that you have to what's 529 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: already a World Championship team. How much does that infusion 530 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 2: help those guys that you know, kind of been there, 531 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 2: done that have that hunger around them again. 532 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's good. It's good that we have guys that 533 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 4: haven't won one maybe or whatever, just to maybe feel 534 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 4: us a little more. I don't know, I'm still hungry 535 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 4: for more. So I think I think every single guy 536 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 4: in here wants to win a championship this year, and uh, 537 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 4: and that's that's our main goal. So it's just, you know, 538 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 4: it's just us coming together as a team, pulling for 539 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 4: each other, fighting for each other every single night, and uh, 540 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 4: you know, that that that'll probably get us over the hunt. 541 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 2: Rookie Sasaki was obviously a coveted free agent off season, 542 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 2: signing the Dodgers of course, landed him. This is a 543 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 2: destination in place. I know that they want him to 544 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 2: work on a third pitch. How important do you think 545 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 2: that is? And to compliment that splitter in the fastball 546 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 2: that he has. 547 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think it'd be great. Obviously, you know, 548 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,959 Speaker 4: you want as many good pitches as you can have 549 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 4: as a pitcher. You know, he's got three really good 550 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 4: pitches in a fastball, splitter, his slider right now. But 551 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 4: I'm sure he's gonna look totally different in two years. 552 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 4: That's just that's just the name of the game. Guys. 553 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,439 Speaker 4: Guys have to adapt and figure out what works. So, 554 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 4: you know, that's what we're gonna do. We're gonna figure 555 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 4: out what plays in the big leagues for him, what 556 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 4: it needs to to change or improve or it could 557 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 4: be the exact same. I have no idea, but we're 558 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 4: we're open to all that and his you know, career 559 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 4: development and all that. But uh, you know, I'm just 560 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 4: here to help him along the way and and guide 561 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 4: him in a game you. 562 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 2: Mentioned helping along the way. How does a American born 563 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 2: English speaking backstop deal with three really good Japanese born 564 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,880 Speaker 2: Japanese speaking starting pitchers. 565 00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 4: Well, luckily baseball Angos is baseball ango. Yeah, we got 566 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 4: the interpreters Ireton and Hero and all them, so yeah, 567 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 4: that helps, you know. They try to teach me a 568 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 4: little or a little Japanese, so kind of working on it. 569 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 4: Kind of we'll see, but no, it's fun. They actually 570 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 4: know English better than you think, so you. 571 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 2: Better get on that Rosetta stone. Let me ask you 572 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 2: a little bit about Shoeo TONI. What is the difficulty 573 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: will when you have a guy that obviously is a 574 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 2: designated hitter, he's an MVP, he's a fifty to fifty guy, 575 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 2: but then he also has to rehab on the pitching side. 576 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 2: So it's not like you can send him out on 577 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 2: a rehab assignment because you need him in the lineup 578 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 2: the next day. How does that work in terms of 579 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 2: getting him built up to where he needs to be 580 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 2: on the pitching side, but also using him as the. 581 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 4: DH Yeah, I don't know, that's that's not my department. 582 00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 4: I know, shohy Is he works harder than anybody I 583 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,480 Speaker 4: know he is going to have a plan with the 584 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 4: medical staff, with the training staff, with the coaches, so 585 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 4: they'll come up with the plan and you know, when 586 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 4: we get him pitching, that'd be great for us. Hopefully 587 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 4: his bats in the lineup every single night for us, 588 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 4: So they'll figure all that out. 589 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 3: Good stuff there. 590 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 2: He's like, that's above my pay grade. Rizzou, that's above 591 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 2: my pay grade. But it is a question, right. We were talking, 592 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 2: of course to a bunch of other folks too, about 593 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,400 Speaker 2: how is a show hey gonna get built up. It's 594 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 2: not like we can send them the you know, rancho 595 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 2: to figure this out. So any whosell you gotta love 596 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 2: the calmness behind the plate with Will Smith. I appreciate 597 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 2: obviously him taking the time. And one of those guys, Clint, 598 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,199 Speaker 2: I want to get to it because we didn't get 599 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 2: to it on Thursday. One of those guys, he's going 600 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 2: to be catching his Anthony Bonda a huge piece of 601 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 2: this puzzle.

It's not going to change from the last 653 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 6: year's plan as far as like just the mentality of 654 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 6: attacking the hitters and you know, showcasing the best stuff 655 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 6: and putting everything out there and then handing it off 656 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 6: to the next guy behind us.

It's always going to be 660 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 6: like that, at least in my eyes. You know, as 661 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 6: as a team, if everybody does their job and consistently 662 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 6: does their job, we should be coming out with a 663 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 6: lot of w's. 664 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: This is a team that is built to come out 665 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 1: with a lot of w's, a lot of talent in there. 666 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: What we've already talked about talk to if you guys 667 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: missed it last Thursday, we had our interviews with Tanner, Scott, 668 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: Kirby Yates in there. The new blood in that bullpen. 669 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: I really really love that at bullpen.

Before we get to what's 704 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 2: coming up on All Dodgers Baseball Thought for the road, 705 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,959 Speaker 2: how about this? Clint Apple TV releasing a world series 706 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 2: docu series called Fight for Glory premieres tonight or excuse me, rather, 707 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 2: it premierees March twenty eighth.

Content 718 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,239 Speaker 1: about that World Series needs to be out there.
