1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,560
Speaker 1: But everything's on the table. Given the fact that it is,

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: you know, the kind of desperation at this point, you're

3
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: trying to do whatever you can to maximize this windows.

4
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 2: What up?

5
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 3: Everybody?

6
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 4: Happy to be with you on this Monday afternoon. You

7
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 4: are listening and watching the Dodgers territory. We are your hosts.

8
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 4: That is Clint Pacius. I am Alona Rizzo. Make sure

9
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 4: you like us, subscribe, rate us five stars, tell your

10
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,240
Speaker 4: friends about us on YouTube of course tubin as Clinton

11
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 4: likes to say, the Dodgers' lead Clint James Pius. Is

12
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 4: that your middle name, James James? Yeah, it's three and

13
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 4: a half. It's three and yeah. Now now you know

14
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,080
Speaker 4: you're in trouble when I say Clint James three and

15
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 4: a half lead in the division. As far as games

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 4: are concerned, are we pushing the panic button as of yet?

17
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:54,000
Speaker 4: Because as Bobby and Ardia says, the lead for the

18
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 4: bye is just two games. The Milwaukee Brewers could pass

19
00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 4: them in the National League standings. As far as home

20
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 4: fowl advantage is concerned, I.

21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 2: Don't know it's a panic button and what a panic

22
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 2: button would do for this team, because the problem is,

23
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 2: you don't have starting pitching, and it got worse over

24
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: the weekend since we were last on. So we'll talk

25
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 2: about the Glassnow situation in just a little bit. But

26
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 2: there's nothing you could panic about. It's go out there

27
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 2: and win some frickin' ballgames. That's what this team needs

28
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 2: to do. They control their own destiny. Looking at the

29
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: roster and the health of that roster, you know, very

30
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:31,199
Speaker 2: desperately they could use that buy even though it hasn't

31
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 2: worked very well for them over the last couple of years.

32
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 2: But you could push a panic button again, I'll say it.

33
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 2: What does it do for this team? You're not going

34
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 2: to magically you know, a new pitcher isn't going to materialize.

35
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 4: No, it makes me feel better though I'm panicking at

36
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 4: this point. I mean, I've said this all along, we

37
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 4: don't have enough starting pitching, and now it's gotten even worse.

38
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 4: Davessay saying that Dave Roberts just told us Tyler Glassnow

39
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 4: season is likely over. Glasnow has a sprained elbow. And

40
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 4: what's even more concerning Clint than the sprained elbow is

41
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 4: the fact that Dave Roberts didn't know where Tyler glass

42
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 4: Now went. He got on a plane he left. He's

43
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 4: not with the team. There were also reports obviously that

44
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 4: his name Placard was, you know, taking off of the

45
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 4: locker Bill Plunkett reporting that as well. That's weird to me,

46
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 4: is it not?

47
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: It's it's very weird. I mean, I think there's some

48
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,119
Speaker 2: I wouldn't call it created creative verbiage here in the tweets.

49
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 2: You know, we could read a lot more when you're

50
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: just reading, you know, one hundred or two hundred characters

51
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 2: or whatever the hell it is. I'm sure there's a

52
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 2: little more nuance to it. But still on paper, it

53
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 2: looks bad. It's not a good visual for a guy that,

54
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 2: you know, this team committed a lot of money to

55
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: him and and he didn't have the best track record

56
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 2: before coming here. Tyler Glass now talked a lot about

57
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 2: his innings count and injury history and all this kind

58
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:53,119
Speaker 2: of stuff. So to to see him kind of avoid

59
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: I can understand somebody also wanting to not talk about it.

60
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 2: I'm sure he is frustrated as all hell. He played

61
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 2: a lot of his his time in Tampa Bay with

62
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 2: like that that elbow injury. Thought he had it fixed.

63
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 2: We don't really know exactly what's going on with this

64
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 2: elbow injury? Dave I think said that the UCL is

65
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 2: reportedly fine, so we don't know if it's a forearm

66
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: or whatever it is. And I'm sure Glass now just

67
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: kind of wants to, you know, take his time to

68
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 2: go be Anthony Bonda and punch a wall and be

69
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 2: upset and whatever. But still, it's just it's not a

70
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 2: good look to leave your team in the middle of

71
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 2: a roadie. And and now it just adds more fuel

72
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 2: to the fire where we get to talk about stuff

73
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 2: like this when we'd rather be talking about, Oh, yeah,

74
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: he's there, he's maybe healthy, maybe coming back, or he's

75
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 2: done for the year.

76
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 4: What's going on? You can't you don't get that pass

77
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 4: if you're Tyler glassnow and you're given a massive contract

78
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 4: to come to Los Angeles Daughters or any team. I

79
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 4: don't care if you're you know, pitching for the you know,

80
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 4: the Beloit Snappers, if you get a contract, if you

81
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 4: want to be lauded and praised when you're doing things well,

82
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 4: you have a responsibility as a member of this team

83
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 4: number one, not to leave your team in the middle

84
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 4: of a road trip. Again, maybe that was discussed.

85
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: I don't know.

86
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 4: But number two, you have to post and ask questions.

87
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 4: I've said this time and time again. I just don't

88
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 4: like the fact that he didn't answer questions and address

89
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 4: his responsibilities with the media. Justin Turner could go zero

90
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 4: for five or five for five. Justin Turner was there

91
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 4: every single day to post at his locker, to take

92
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 4: the questions, to deal with the stupidity in terms of questions,

93
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 4: to deal with the criticism, to deal with all of it.

94
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 4: But he was there answering questions. And that to me

95
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 4: is what Tyler Glass. Now, if you want to be

96
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 4: a leader on this team, if you want to be

97
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 4: an integral part of this starting rotation, I get that

98
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: you're frustrated, no doubt, no doubt. Right now, if our

99
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 4: starting rotation is Yoshiowa Yamamoto, Jack Flaherty, Walker Bueler who

100
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 4: looked good yesterday or this weekend, Bobby Miller, and Landon Neck,

101
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 4: really that's what we're doing.

102
00:04:59,360 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: It's not.

103
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,599
Speaker 2: This is the the box of scraps that Tony Stark

104
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 2: made his Iron Man suit out of in a cave.

105
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 2: That's for everybody who likes the MCU. But anyway, it's

106
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 2: not a good situation. And it's again, it's the same

107
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 2: situation this team has found itself in the last couple

108
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 2: of years. You kind of keep waiting and hoping that

109
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 2: some of these injured dudes are going to come back

110
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 2: at the very end of September and hope everything gels

111
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 2: into this this you know, perfect snowball of winning a

112
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 2: World Series or something like that. But it doesn't work.

113
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 2: This plan does not work, especially does not work for

114
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: the Dodgers. They are not the only team, of course,

115
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: but that's what we talk about it. It does not work.

116
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: They need but I don't know what you do.

117
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: What do you do?

118
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 2: Do you go get another ace? I mean, does a

119
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,280
Speaker 2: team try to sign Blake Snell this offseason? We got

120
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 2: plenty of that to talk about, you know, come winter time.

121
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, back on glass now. It's just not a

122
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 2: good look. And for somebody who who wants to be

123
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,600
Speaker 2: an ACE or viewed as an ace, like, dude, you

124
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 2: have not earned enough, you know, to be able to

125
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 2: tell media like, oh yeah, I'll talk to you later

126
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 2: and then hide and run away and then you know,

127
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 2: hop a plane out of town.

128
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 4: It drives me, It drives me nuts. I hate the

129
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,919
Speaker 4: lack of accountability and again I was not privy to

130
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 4: the conversations that he was having with this training staff

131
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,919
Speaker 4: or perhaps the you know, the front office brass. But

132
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 4: if your own manager says that he got on a

133
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 4: plane and he doesn't know where he went, I mean,

134
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 4: that's problematic to me. And this and again, this was

135
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 4: not a rental, This was not a one year signing.

136
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 4: This was a multi year contract. So what does that

137
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 4: do moving forward in terms of how the team views them.

138
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: I don't know.

139
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,840
Speaker 4: Maybe there were conversations, but from the outside looking in,

140
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 4: if the guy is upset about being shut down for

141
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 4: the season, he's upset about the injury and then he leaves,

142
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 4: that doesn't bode well for supporting your teammates the rest

143
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 4: of the way. And not for nothing. Is there some

144
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,599
Speaker 4: sort of responsibility or blame to be made for taking

145
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 4: a risk on a guy that has had a lot

146
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 4: of injury issues in the past and has not been

147
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 4: able to compete an entire year. I mean, is this

148
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,279
Speaker 4: is it too much of a risk? Is does Andrew

149
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 4: Friedman take a little bit to blame here? I mean

150
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 4: he obviously he's known Tyler glasnow for a long time.

151
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, No, I mean this is This is every

152
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 2: bit of an Andrew Friedman move. He shops for people

153
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 2: that are, you know, coming towards the end of their

154
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 2: contract that they can extend or maybe find a team

155
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: friendly deal. It's not so much of a of a

156
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 2: basement or what they call bottom dollar the dollar store edition.

157
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 2: Because Tyler Glasnow does. We saw it when he's healthy,

158
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 2: he's good. He does add a lot to a rotation.

159
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 2: But yeah, you can't fault Andrew Friedman for going out.

160
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: And it's not like Tyler Glasnow is the one guy

161
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 2: getting injured. Every pitcher in baseball is getting injured. So

162
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 2: you have to credit the front office for trying to

163
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 2: do its best without blowing up the farm system. Again,

164
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: I don't know who else you go out and get.

165
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 2: They've been in play on every big free agent. They'll

166
00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 2: try to go out and make a trade for, you know,

167
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 2: the best guys available. This year, they happen to land

168
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 2: one with Jack Flaherty. But no, this is it's not

169
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 2: a I mean, everything is a risk in baseball at

170
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 2: a risk.

171
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: We know this.

172
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 2: But I don't think the front office deserves blame for

173
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 2: glass Now falling apart, which is what he kind of

174
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:13,239
Speaker 2: always does.

175
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know. And by the way, there's nothing at

176
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 4: the dollar store that's actually a dollar, just so you know,

177
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 4: I just want you to know that go in there

178
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 4: all the time. Nothing's a dollar. It's really false advertising.

179
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 4: It's annoying. We've had a lot of bad luck with

180
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 4: pitching prospects that have had to come up, probably sooner

181
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 4: than they were supposed to, just because of injuries to

182
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 4: veteran guys. And and we've had a ton of injuries.

183
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 4: I don't remember a season, Clint, where we've had this much,

184
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 4: particularly to a starting staff.

185
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, this has been an extremely painful season. Started right

186
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 2: away in spring training, you know, the loss of Emmett

187
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 2: Chan and that sort of started that I'm going to

188
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 2: go with the Avalanche again or whatever the hell I said.

189
00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 2: But it's it's been painful losing him, uh Mays esophagus.

190
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 2: You know, at this point in the season, relying on

191
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 2: Land and Knak Bobby Miller not being good, but those

192
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 2: both those guys have been mostly healthy. Kyle Hurt, Nick

193
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 2: Frosso with the shoulder injury. The list just keeps going

194
00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 2: on and on. And if I had more of them

195
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 2: in front of me, I would list more of them.

196
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: But Ryan River Ryan that I will argue that is

197
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: the most devastating loss for this team because that kid

198
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: was set to do some important important stuff for this

199
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 2: organization in the postseason and now they they're hurting. We're

200
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 2: all hurting, all right.

201
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 4: Well, one Torribo does a tremendous job covering the Los

202
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 4: Angeles Dodgers for MLB dot Com, and he actually knows

203
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 4: Tyler glass Now very well from both of their times

204
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,800
Speaker 4: with the Tampa Bay Rays. We're going to talk to

205
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 4: one momentarily, but before that, let's hear a word from A. J. Prasinski,

206
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 4: Eric Kratz, and Scott Broun.

207
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 3: Snoring sucks SODA's congestion from sinuses, allergies or a cold,

208
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 3: and you might not even realize how much it's affecting you, ftfam.

209
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 3: You need to try Navage nasal care. It's been a

210
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: game changer for me.

211
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, Kratz.

212
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,440
Speaker 3: Navaj uses that smooth saline flow and nasal suction to

213
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 3: clear those nasal passages. Now I'm breathing easy, easier, which

214
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 3: is a pretty big deal in my life. My Navage

215
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 3: unit is clearing my congestion fast, day and night. I

216
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 3: use it twice per day as part of a daily routine.

217
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: We want to help you get relief from your congestion too.

218

227
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 4: Time behind the scenes where we dig a little bit deeper.

228
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 4: Wan Toribio does a tremendous job covering the Los Angeles

229
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 4: Dodgers for MLB dot com, but prior to his time

230
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 4: in Los Angeles, he did a great job covering the

231
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 4: Tampa Bay Rays. There's nobody that knows Tyler Glass now

232
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 4: better than one, so we're gonna start there. Thanks for

233
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 4: being with us. You know him well. This personality is

234
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 4: something that I'm trying to learn more about. But what

235
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 4: is your takeaway from Dave Roberts saying that in fact,

236
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 4: he did get on the plane, but he's not sure

237
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,280
Speaker 4: where he is and kind of leaving the team in

238
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:29,319
Speaker 4: the middle of a road trip.

239
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it was a pretty unusual scene here

240
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: at Trua's part. Obviously, on Friday, you know, we're waiting

241
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: for him to throw out seventy to the game, he's

242
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: warming up in the bullpen and he just waves off

243
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: the hitters. You know, obviously he felt some discomfort in

244
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: his elbow. So that was on Friday. On Saturday, we

245
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: get news that he's out for the season. A couple

246
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: of us go up to him in the clubhouse after

247
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: the game and he said he didn't want to talk,

248
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: and then on Sunday he was gone. So you know, obviously,

249
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: I think people need to understand. Also, he's somebody who's

250
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: dealt with elbow injuries his whole career. He was finally

251
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: he at least he thought he was finally over all

252
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 1: those issues, so you know, he's he's really disappointed. I mean,

253
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 1: I think that's the human nature part of it. You know,

254
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 1: I think none of us like the fact that he's

255
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: just disappeared and they don't want to talk. But at

256
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 1: the same time, I can kind of understand, and given

257
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 1: what he's kind of been through, he that he was

258
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: over it and clearly not.

259
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 2: Do you guys have any sort of you know, anything

260
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: else that you know about this elbow situation? I know

261
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 2: Doc said it's not the UCL so what else could

262
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 2: be going on in there if you know anything.

263
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't really know much right now, you know.

264
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: Obviously that's why we would have liked to talk to him. Yeah,

265
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,839
Speaker 1: obviously the Dodgs aren't going to give us the whole scan, right,

266
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: They're not going to open up the books and tell

267
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: us exactly what's wrong with him, So hearing it from

268
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 1: him would have been helpful. But it's it's clearly something

269
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: that's kept him out for a month, and it's going

270
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 1: to keep him out for longer. We don't really know

271
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 1: if anything's gonna have to be done in the offseason.

272
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: That's gonna be pretty telling about how how you know

273
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: how serious this was. But at the same time, you know,

274
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: pitchers have elbow I think have things going on in

275
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: their elbows all the time, So we don't really know

276
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: exactly what it is. But it's curarly something that's been

277
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: bothering him for at least a month now, all right.

278
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 2: Well, we saw also over the weekend the big news

279
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 2: with show he Otani. Oh man, he could be pitching.

280
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 2: He could be the savior of this organization in October. Tough,

281
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 2: ramp up, tough. Everything about the whole idea of show

282
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 2: Hay pitching people feel one way or the other. What

283
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 2: is your sense of show he Tani potentially being you know,

284
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 2: a usable weapon for this team out of the bullpen

285
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 2: in October.

286
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think we're gonna find out a lot here

287
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 1: over the next two weeks. I asked Dave. I was like, so,

288
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,840
Speaker 1: this guy's just gonna throw a bullpen before Game two

289
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: of the n Obs. We've never seen anything like this, right, Like,

290
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: is he just gonna do that? Because that would be

291
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 1: I ac think that would be kind of insane. So

292
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: I think, you know, they've basically said, yeah, you know,

293
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,320
Speaker 1: we're just going to see what happens. So if they

294
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: if they shut him down from throwing pans and playing

295
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: catch and all that stuff, then the chances of him

296
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 1: pitching are done. But if he keeps doing that, it's

297
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: also kind of like why not, right, Like he's he's

298
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: on the roster, he doesn't count toward your pitcher limit.

299
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: He could do it, and if he signs up to

300
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: do it, then sure, I can see him coming out

301
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: of the pen for an inning or two. But if

302
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: you ask me about, like, you know, the reality, I

303
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 1: think it's a pretty slim chance that we see him

304
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: pitching in October. I mean, I think I would be

305
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: pretty surprised. But if it's the World Series and they

306
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: need an arm for an inning or two, then why not.

307
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: But I think, like I said, I think we're going

308
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: to find out a lot here over the next two

309
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: weeks to see if they shut him down from throwing

310
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 1: for the rest of the year or if he continues

311
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: to do so.

312
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 4: Why not You spent seven hundred million on him, That's

313
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 4: why not. I wouldn't want to risk him for twenty

314
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 4: twenty five. Let me ask you this one, Walker Rueler,

315
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 4: as it stands right now, would be the number three

316
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 4: starter in a game postseason series. Have you seen enough

317
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 4: from him to make you feel confident in that choice?

318
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 1: Yes? Or no? I mean, it's been a weird season

319
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: for Walker. Obviously, he's coming back from the second Tommy John.

320
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: I mean, if you remember a month and a half ago,

321
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 1: two months ago, he left the team. He just went

322
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: to Florida, and nobody knew exactly where he was or

323
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: what he was doing and why he went to Florida. Uh,

324
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: and now he's kind of like the third best guy

325
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: in the rotation. So things change fast, especially with you know,

326
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: when your stars are dropping like flies, like they are

327
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: with the Dodgers right now. Two weeks ago, he was

328
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: talking about, I hope I can get a chance in

329
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: the playoffs. You know, we have so many talented guys,

330
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: and now they don't really have a choice. I mean,

331
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 1: whether I think that he's the right choice or not,

332
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: they just don't have anybody else. And I think the

333
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: one thing that Walker does have going for him is,

334
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: you know, he's done this. He loves the playoffs. He

335
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: loves being on that stage. You know, he's he's a confident,

336
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: cocky guy, and I think that's what you need in

337
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: the playoffs. You know, we kind of saw that yesterday.

338
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: He's staring down hitters as he's striking them out. So

339
00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 1: I think in terms of attitude, he's definitely a pretty

340
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: good choice. But he also has a five five ERA

341
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: this season, so it's also it's just kind of that's

342
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: just the reality of where the Dodgers are right now.

343
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: You know, I would I would bet that Walker Butler

344
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: will kind of get up for a playoff game. So

345
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: that's that's kind of what they have right now.

346
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, you bet on the character with Walker Buehler, and

347
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 2: it seems like when he gets angry, he has that

348
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 2: little extra gear. That's what really motivates him. And when

349
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 2: you're seeing him do well in the starts, but still

350
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 2: Dodgers would rather not see him right now be their

351
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 2: Game three starter. This is the reality we're dealing with.

352
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 2: Game four also kind of extremely up in the air.

353
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: We've seen good, we've seen bad out of Land and Nack.

354
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 2: We know Tony Gonsolin's coming. What happens if they need

355
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 2: a Game four starter? What's kind of in play there?

356
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 2: Jack Flaherty, short start or bullpen game? Do you have

357
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 2: any idea what thinking the think tank is sort of

358
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 2: coming up with right now.

359
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be some praying involved in. I'm if

360
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: Kershak comes back, he can kind of give you anything. Uh,

361
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: you'll take that, But right now, there's really just no

362
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: real option for the for the team, and it's hard

363
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: because you're gonna use the bullpen a lot in games one, two,

364
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: and three. You're gonna have to off day between two

365
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,400
Speaker 1: and three. But it's not gonna be easy. So you're

366
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna use the five six relievers a day

367
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: and then you're gonna go to a bullpen game in

368
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: game four. So it's not that it's not an ideal situation.

369
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: The one thing that Dodgers do have going for them

370
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:30,239
Speaker 1: is they have like five or six relievers that they

371
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: really trust right now. You know, they have Michael Kopek,

372
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: who's been a great addition since they got from the

373
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 1: White Sox. They have Evan Phillips, to have Bruce Rogradoro

374
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: like trying, and Daniel Hudson Alex Vesia, uh, you know

375
00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: they had to be bonded, but he decided to punch

376
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: something object. But I think you know, they have they

377
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 1: have plenty of options. You know, Ryan Brage is another guy.

378
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 1: They have plenty of options in the bullpen. But it's

379
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: not gonna be easy. I mean, they have to do

380
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: this for a month. I think like that's something that

381
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 1: people need to remember is this team's not built to

382
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: win one playoff series, but like you have to win

383
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: one to move on. But they're built to win the

384
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 1: World Series, and can they do it for a month?

385
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be the real question. They keep

386
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 1: saying the right things, they keep doing the right things,

387
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 1: and it could happen, right like the playoffs, you never

388
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 1: know what's going to happen, but they're gonna have to

389
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 1: show it on the field. Well.

390
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,160
Speaker 4: I think they the intention was to build a World

391
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 4: Series team. That was the blueprint. I don't know if

392
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 4: this team has enough starting pitching to get the job done.

393
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 4: Do you have any updates on Clayton Kershaw and Gavin

394
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,600
Speaker 4: Stone as far as their return realistically?

395
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, Kershaw is just kind of he's keeping his arm loose,

396
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: which is good, but he can't get off a mound

397
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:37,159
Speaker 1: yet because of the toe is still bothering him. Gavin

398
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,159
Speaker 1: Stone's going to have a pretty big catch session in

399
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: Miami over the next couple of days. We'll kind of

400
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 1: see how that goes. But that's a shoulder injury and

401
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 1: you know, kind of like you mentioned with Watani, he's

402
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: a big part of the future. So as Gavin Stone.

403
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: You know, we talked about Tyler Glass not going down,

404
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: and I think Gavin Stone going down is just as

405
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: big given the consistency that he gave to the starting

406
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: rotation all season long. So if they can get him back,

407
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 1: that'd be great. I just I'm a little you know,

408
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 1: skeptical given the fact that it is a shoulder injury

409
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,879
Speaker 1: and they're not gonna risk him, uh, you know, to

410
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 1: get two or three innings out of him if he's

411
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: not one hundred percent, I think they're gonna they're gonna

412
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: think long term of him.

413
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 2: So another guy we haven't mentioned too much, Bobby Miller.

414
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 2: He is one of the healthy dudes around, but the

415
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 2: era is also very healthy if you're looking at other

416
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 2: people taking advantage of him. Is Bobby Miller a factor

417
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 2: for this team in October?

418
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 1: I mean, it might be one of those situations again

419
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: that you just might not have a choe. Like you said,

420
00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: I mean, the the performance aspect of it. You know,

421
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: this is a guy who got sent down two months ago.

422
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: He was really good last season. I mean, he was

423
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: probably the best starter if we really you know, go

424
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,680
Speaker 1: from start to finish. He had a bad game too,

425
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: but yeah, this is a guy who struggled this year.

426
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: There's no denying that. You know, he knows that he

427
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: after his last start, he said, I'm going through it

428
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: right now. I don't know. I'm trying really hard. I'm

429
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: preparing the right way and just not getting the results

430
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 1: that I want. Now, if he has two solid starts

431
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 1: here coming up, like maybe he can get an option.

432
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: He also throws a hundred, right, so if you can,

433
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: if you can use him for an inning or two

434
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: out of the bullpen, you could do that. They're gonna

435
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: have to get creative with whatever they end up doing

436
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 1: in that game four or five whatever, you know, five

437
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: will be flirted. But a game four moving forward and

438
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: he could be in the mix. I think everyone's in

439
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: the mix right now. You know, Tony Gonson is in

440
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 1: the mix, and he hasn't pitched all season long. Uh,

441
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: and he got kind of lit up in Triple A yesterday.

442
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: So but everything's on the table. Given the fact that

443
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: it is, you know, they're kind of desperation at this point.

444
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: You're trying to do whatever you can to maximize this

445
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 1: window when you have Mookie Beds, Show Tani and Freddie

446
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: Freeman at the top of your lineup. So they're gonna

447
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 1: do whatever it takes to get there. Now, it's just

448
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,320
Speaker 1: a matter of can they get it done.

449
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 4: Or not. We're talking with one too of MLB dot

450
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,879
Speaker 4: com regarding the Los Ange to the Dodgers. Let me

451
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 4: ask you this one. The postseason starts two weeks from tomorrow.

452
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,959
Speaker 4: If the postseason were to start today, who is the

453
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 4: biggest threat in the National League to the Dodgers?

454
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 1: You probably have to give it to the Phillies, given

455
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: the fact that they have all those things that the

456
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,159
Speaker 1: Dodgers kind of don't have right now, Right like game one,

457
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: we know who the Game one starter is will be

458
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 1: Zach Wheeler, we know who their Game two starter is,

459
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: we know who their Game three starter is. We might

460
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 1: even know who their Game four starter is. Right like,

461
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: they have all those things. They have a really deep

462
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: open I think the Dodgers have a better lineup than

463
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: the Phillies do, but the fighting. You know, the Phillies

464
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 1: have Trey Turner, Bryce Harper and those guys. So that's

465
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: a pretty deep team in Milwaukee. I think at some

466
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: point you don't have to give them credit. Right Like,

467
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,239
Speaker 1: you can say they play in a week division. You

468
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 1: can say they don't have the star power that some

469
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: of these other teams have, but they also have the

470
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: best run differential in baseball right now. So at some point,

471
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: you know, maybe they are just for real. I mean,

472
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: we just had to kind of accept the fact that

473
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: the Brewers are a pretty good team. So it's gonna

474
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: be hard, and I do think if the Dodgers end

475
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: up with that one seed, getting that four or five

476
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,639
Speaker 1: match between San Diego and Arizona, it's not going to

477
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: be pretty easy. So maybe falling down to the two

478
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: seed isn't the worst thing for the Dodgers this year,

479
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,480
Speaker 1: so they can avoid playing a division opponent for once.

480
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of good teams in the National League,

481
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: and they all kind of they're all playing good at

482
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 1: the right time, and then it's time for the Dodgers

483
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: to kind of step up in that direction.

484
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Brewers are doing it without Corbyn Burns, without

485
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:28,880
Speaker 4: Brennan Woodruff for a big part of it, without Devin

486
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 4: Williams for most of the season, and without Christian Yelwick.

487
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,719
Speaker 4: So they are certainly a threat onan Toadibio. Thank you

488
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 4: so much for your insight. We appreciated and enjoy game

489
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 4: four of that four game set in Atlanta for sure.

490
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,159
Speaker 1: Guys for having me all right.

491
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 4: Time now for last licks, all right, So some good news.

492
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 4: So Beverly is the latest to get adopted, so that

493
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 4: is great. Out of Boogie seven puppies, Clint, four of

494
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 4: them have found forever homes. There are two more in

495
00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 4: California that need your help. That is Penny on left

496
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,760
Speaker 4: in the red harness. That is Priya on the right

497
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 4: and the yellow harness. These are two babies that are

498
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 4: located in Landers, California right now. They're four months old,

499

Speaker 4: fully vaccinated, microchips. They're learning potty and leash training. They're super,

500
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 4: super sweet, super playful as well. They are available in

501
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 4: California and their sister, Bernadette is available in Arizona. So

502
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:24,119
Speaker 4: please spread the word. Gidrisguardian dot org for more information.

503
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 4: All right, baseball thought for the road, Clint, As we

504
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 4: talked about this, does the schedule play to the advantage

505
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,639
Speaker 4: give them time to figure things out? The reason I

506
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 4: asked this is after they close out tonight against the Braves,

507
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 4: nine of their final twelve are against teams with second

508
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 4: and third worst records in baseball. The Marlins and the

509
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 4: Rockies take advantage of the schedule.

510
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, But also the Rockies tend to get it

511
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 2: up playing against the Dodgers. And those last three, I'm

512
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 2: praying the Dodgers have at least that two seed clinched

513
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 2: for that final series in Colorado, so they don't need

514
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 2: to send any important pitcher to Colorado, because somebody could

515
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 2: send that place straight to the Moon, straight to Hell,

516
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 2: straight to wherever. I hate Dodgers pitchers in Colorado. But yes,

517
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,880
Speaker 2: the schedule is in their favor. You don't know if

518
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 2: they can take advantage of that as well as other

519
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 2: teams can. Sometimes you know, they tend to play down

520
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 2: to the competition, or at least that's kind of what it

521
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 2: feels like. Still that said to the question, yeah, let

522
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 2: this let the schedule help you out, I know the

523
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 2: I think the Padres have a tougher schedule. I think

524
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 2: the Diamondbacks have a tougher schedule if you're looking at

525
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 2: the NL West. So they the Dodgers can I guess

526
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't want to say can just fall

527
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: into the playoffs. But you know, if we're talking about

528
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,959
Speaker 2: hitting that panic button, they don't need a panic too deeply.

529
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 2: Try not to or too crazy or whatever. Just try

530
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 2: not to get yourself hurt, I guess is what we're saying.

531
00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,880
Speaker 2: Maybe play the little bubble wrap on yeah, you and want.

532
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,160
Speaker 4: To bring up a good point. Maybe the two seed

533
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 4: isn't the worst thing in the world that could happen

534
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 4: to the Los Angeles Daughters. The Mets have a really

535
00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 4: rough schedule too, and it's even worse with Francisco Lindor

536
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 4: with the MRI. So we'll see what happens with the

537
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 4: Mets is they try to work their way into the

538
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 4: postseason as well. What is coming up on All Dodgers

539
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 4: with Clint Pascias.

540
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 2: Uh, probably crying a little bit of crying, hopefully that

541
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 2: the boys can say.

542
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,720
Speaker 4: You weren't panicking. I thought you weren't panicking yet.

543
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 2: Well, I mean you could still feel terrible about watching

544
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 2: you know what we're watching, but it is a Yamamoto

545
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 2: star tonight, so that should be a fun site for everybody, unless,

546
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 2: you know, more bad things happen. But we're going to

547
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 2: talk about it on All Dodgers with me, Clint Pacias

548
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 2: postgame show, myself, a producer. Kevin will be joining, and

549
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 2: then we're also going to get really, really, possibly dumb

550
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 2: creative with this starting rotation and the options with the

551
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 2: starting rotation. I'm bringing up one name from the minor

552
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 2: leagues that nobody is talking about yet, so tubein to

553
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 2: find out how dumb aw that.

554
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 4: Is quite the tease. Listen to all Dodgers with Clint Pacius.

555
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 4: You can tube in, tell your friends, bring a friend.

556
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,440
Speaker 4: Rate us five stars here too as well on Dodgers territory.

557
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 4: Clint and I will be back with you on a

558
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,160
Speaker 4: Thursday Day afternoon. We appreciate you watching Go Dodgers.

559
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: Bye,
