1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,960 Speaker 1: I think that the international pipeline has been better for 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: the Dodgers, and I think certainly you can't argue against 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: the Dodgers' pitching development being better. Kimorials. 4 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 2: Good afternoon everybody. 5 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 3: For those of you that were just overwatching Foul Territory 6 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 3: with Scott b and the boys, thank you for watching 7 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 3: Dodgers Territory. Now we are your hosts. I am Alana Rizzo. 8 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 3: That is my pal Clint Passias and Clint. We are 9 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 3: on the air as the solar eclipse is going over 10 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 3: supposed to be going over Boston right now or Massachusetts 11 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 3: right now, so I'm not going to be able to 12 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 3: see it. But I was with the team back in 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,239 Speaker 3: you know, seven years ago or whatever when we were 14 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh and we all had our glasses. 15 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: It was pretty sweet. I'm sorry that you're going to 16 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 2: miss it. 17 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 4: I'm going to try to catch some of it. If not, 18 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 4: I'll just reenact it with like a fire and a tortilla. 19 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 4: I've already seen the memes on this. Anyways, there we are. 20 00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: I wasn't in this photo. 21 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 3: Thanks a lot Daves for making sure that he didn't 22 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 3: capture me in this. But the real DV David Vessey, 23 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 3: who does such a tremendous job covering the Dodgers. I 24 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 3: have a funny story about Justin Turner and Yacio Puig 25 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 3: during the last eclipse. I don't think I can say 26 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 3: it on the air, but that'll be for a different time, 27 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 3: maybe when we've had some beverages to discuss that. But 28 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 3: that was a fun time, and there's another one right now, 29 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 3: and you're not going to see it again until like 30 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 3: what twenty four forty four or something in the state 31 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 3: of Ohio. So big things happening celestially. But speaking of 32 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 3: big things, how about time for the big ticket? 33 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:36,679 Speaker 4: All right? 34 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 2: So what is your thought about this? I know you 35 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 2: watched every single game. 36 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 3: Miguel Rojas was not pleased about the length of the 37 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 3: rain delay Clint over the course of the series in Chicago. 38 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 3: Not only was he not pleased with the length of 39 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 3: the rain delay, they certainly were not pleased with the 40 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 3: field conditions and was very concerned about the health and 41 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 3: safety of the players after that long delay. 42 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 4: Sloppy game, sloppy field conditions game for the Dodgers. Kind 43 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 4: of overall, I like seeing this out of Mickey row. 44 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 4: You want to see that's why you bring in a 45 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 4: veteran like this to to complain, to care about his 46 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 4: his team, his pitchers, the guys around him. You know, 47 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 4: you don't like to see it. We were talking before 48 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 4: the show. You can't really get a dome on Wrigley 49 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 4: Field at this at this point and it's a very, 50 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 4: very long life. But I have to agree with Miguil 51 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 4: Rojas in this situation. It's dangerous situation. It's dangerous field. 52 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 4: You know, playing conditions. You can get people slipping, hurting themselves, 53 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: pulling something. And they're not worried about this one game. 54 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 4: They're worried about the entirety of the season. They're trying 55 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 4: to play one hundred and sixty two games plus playoffs 56 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 4: already coming off of you know, spring training. There's a 57 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 4: lot of baseball to be played, and we're talking about 58 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 4: one game on a Sunday in Chicago. Just maybe at 59 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 4: some point cut your losses. 60 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,839 Speaker 3: I can understand not wanting to have to go back 61 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 3: there and may have a makeup game, but obviously the 62 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: health and safety of both teams, not just the Dodgers, 63 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 3: of course, put the Chicago Cubs as well, but not 64 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,119 Speaker 3: taking any excuses. They had three errors in the game. 65 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 3: They lost the game, the first series that they've lost 66 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 3: so far in this young twenty twenty four. But a 67 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: good thing that happened over the course of time with 68 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 3: Chicago Cubs is the way that yama Moto pitch. This 69 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 3: is the guy Clint that the Dodgers hoped that they 70 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 3: were getting. 71 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is the guy that every bit yama Moto 72 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 4: as advertised. This is the guy you go and spend 73 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 4: ultimately with posting fees three hundred and seventy five million 74 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 4: dollars or whatever it is over the next decade plus 75 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 4: looking nasty. The curveball has been an absolute weapon for 76 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 4: this dude of late. Over his last two starts where 77 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 4: he has he's racked up thirteen strikeouts over ten innings. 78 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 4: Put that South Korea start in the trash. There was 79 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 4: a lot of problems there. They were trying to work 80 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 4: through a different set up, a different delivery to try 81 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 4: to mitigate the pitch tipping. Went back to something more 82 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 4: comfortable for him, and it's looking like it was the 83 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 4: right move, and three starts in, we're getting maybe the 84 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 4: best version of Yamamoto that we could hope to expect 85 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 4: for the entirety of the season. 86 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 3: Austin Barnon said that when he gets his feet under him, 87 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 3: he's going to be one of the great pitchers in 88 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 3: the game. Dave Roberts called him an artist, and he 89 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 3: certainly kind of painted that masterpiece or pitched to a masterpiece. 90 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: How about that dot in the corners? 91 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: But eight k's But he's punched out thirteen Clint and 92 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 3: has not given up a run in his last ten innings. 93 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 2: That's impressive stuff. I agree with you. 94 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 3: Throw that outing in Korea out, but this is much 95 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 3: better in terms of the way that he's headed. 96 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, we know the splitter is a weapon for him. 97 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 4: I love what Dave Roberts said about the curveball as 98 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 4: good as any right handed curveball in the game right now. 99 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 4: Of course, the best curveball in the game will always 100 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,359 Speaker 4: be Clayton Kershot at Dave problems and rightfully so. But 101 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 4: the curveball, like I said, has been a real weapon 102 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 4: for him. He throws it a little bit different than 103 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 4: your traditional curveball. They say. I don't know, I haven't 104 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 4: seen him up close, but he's got that thumb on 105 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 4: it and kind of spins it like a yo yo, 106 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 4: and it's it It's saved him. It bailed him out 107 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 4: in that first inning where he loaded the bases, know 108 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 4: about and nobody out filled with cubs, got out of it, 109 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 4: escape damage. You can let out the roar. That's the 110 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 4: best stuff. That's the stuff you want to see from 111 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 4: this dude again, who you invested so damn much money 112 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 4: into to lead your staff after you know, a full 113 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 4: season of pitching struggles starting pitching struggles they had last year. 114 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 4: Love to see Yamamoto. I see Richard Flores here getting 115 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 4: back for a second. We got a dollar nine and 116 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 4: I had super chat, Thank you Richard asking about the 117 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 4: sloppy field condition a lot of Does Dave Roberts have 118 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 4: the right to pull players off the field as Sorry, 119 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 4: I switched gears. I know we're talking Yamamoto, but I 120 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 4: got excited. I saw a super chat. 121 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 2: Now I'm I'm all all about the super chats and 122 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: thank you Richard for that. No, I think so. 123 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 3: I mean you have to as a manager, your first 124 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 3: and foremost the safety and security of your players is 125 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 3: of the utmost important. So if Dave really felt that 126 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 3: the playing surface was not safe for his players, he 127 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 3: absolutely has a right to pull his player off of 128 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 3: the team off of the field rather same situation, as 129 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 3: it was a security risk. If there's people throwing stuff 130 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 3: at the players or there's some sort of security risk, 131 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 3: they have a right as a manager to take their 132 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 3: team off the field. 133 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 2: I mean, Dave is a very fair guy, right, He's a. 134 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 3: Very fair person and understands that this is a business also, 135 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 3: and also they don't want to have to travel back 136 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 3: to the North Side to have a makeup game. But yeah, 137 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 3: safety and security absolutely comes first. I want to get 138 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 3: back to Yamamoto here for just a second. More than 139 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 3: the fans, Clint, I think the teammates. His teammates were 140 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: cheering for him to have the types of outings that 141 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 3: he's had his last two times out because they want 142 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 3: him to be successful and they know how hard it 143 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 3: is to play this game, let alone when you're coming 144 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 3: from another country to have to have that type of 145 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 3: success on the biggest stage. And Mookie Betts was calling 146 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 3: for a beer shower for his boy. 147 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 2: I love that.

He's so much 171 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: closer to coming back. Dave Roberts when I had him 172 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 3: on high heat the other day on MLB Networks, and 173 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 3: it's probably going to be you know, early May hopefully. 174 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 3: What we're talking about as far as Walker Buller is concerned. 175 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 3: So that is great. That's great news. The one thing 176 00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 3: you want to do is come out of those rehabs 177 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 3: stars healthy. He probably has two more to go, yeah. 178 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 4: Two, maybe three. The whole point or a part of 179 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 4: the point of them pushing him back this, you know, 180 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 4: at least a month into the season, was he hasn't 181 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 4: pitched for the better part of two years. Let him 182 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 4: get back and stay pitching through the season into the postseason. 183 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 4: You got that innings limit to worry about. It's probably 184 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 4: gonna be I don't know, one hundred and forty hundred 185 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 4: and fifty innings at at absolute most this year. But 186 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 4: looking good, looking nasty? What did he pick up? He started? 187 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 4: He retired fourteen of sixteen batters in his second rehab 188 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 4: appearance there with Oklahoma City. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised 189 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 4: to think that the calendar is kind of working against him. 190 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 4: Maybe coming back sooner. I think he could be back 191 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 4: sooner in an emergency situation, you get a starter back. 192 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 4: But what do you think are you feeling like maybe 193 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 4: the Dodgers welcome the Braves the Dodger Stadium on I 194 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 4: think it's May third. Do you think that that could 195 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 4: be the day we see Walker Buehler back on the bump. 196 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 2: I mean, that's great. 197 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 3: There's not a situation that I wouldn't put Walker in, 198 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 3: but I think the team would like him to start 199 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 3: at home. Obviously, that would probably be better. I don't 200 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 3: think he carries. He'll start on the moon if he 201 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 3: has to. I know he's chomping on the you know, 202 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: chomping at the bit to get. 203 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 2: Back on that bump. 204 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 3: But yeah, there's no doubt that teams certainly kind of 205 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 3: schedule their starters for certain situations, whatever's going to make 206 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 3: the most sense, and put them up for the you know, 207 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 3: the biggest part of success, to have them to set 208 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 3: them up for success rather so that would be great. 209 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 2: You know, And it stinks too. 210 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 3: I know that we're talking Dodgers territory, but thoughts going 211 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 3: out to Spencer Stryder obviously of the Atlanta Braves. That 212 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 3: sucks when you have these pictures of this quality, I 213 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 3: mean little think about this for just a hot second, 214 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 3: Clayton Kershaw, Garrett Cole, Max Scherzer, Justin Verlander, Spencer Streyder, 215 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 3: Shane Bieber all likely potentially not every single one, but 216 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 3: some some hall of fame caliber pitchers, Hall of fame 217 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 3: caliber names on that list, and we can go on 218 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 3: and on and have a whole conversation. We're not going 219 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 3: to do it on this Dodgers territory, but a whole 220 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 3: type of conversation about what is causing these injuries to 221 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 3: these marquee, big ticket starting pitchers. So hopefully Spencer Stritter 222 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 3: doesn't have to have surgery, but it's it's looking that way. 223 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 3: But yes, to your point, Clint, it would be great 224 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 3: to have Bueller on the bump on May third. 225 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, just I have no problem with him taking his time. 226 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 4: We know he I don't think he's even pitched in 227 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 4: the pitchclock era officially yet, so that's a whole thing. 228 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 4: I know we're getting into the pitch clock on this 229 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 4: show and all the injuries. But yeah, the the rash 230 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 4: of injuries, it's really it's depressing for a baseball fan. 231 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: Oh, it's awful. 232 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 4: All right. 233 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 2: We have a guest on our program today. 234 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 3: We're always excited when we have guests on, and it's 235 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 3: Jeff Ponce with Baseball America. Awesome to have him on 236 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 3: the program too, and we're you know, we're connected with 237 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 3: baseball America this year on Dodger territory and on foul territory. 238 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 3: And Jeff, it's great to be with you. Thanks for 239 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 3: taking the time to be with us. So let's talk 240 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 3: a little bit about some of these up and comers 241 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 3: as far as the prospects are concerned in a deep 242 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 3: farm system for. 243 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: La, Yeah, absolutely, it's it's a loaded system as always. 244 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: And I think you know, the thing about the Dodgers 245 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: is they do as good of a job in terms 246 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 1: of acquiring talent, whether that's through the draft, whether that's 247 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: through trades, whether that's through the international market over you know, 248 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: the course of several years, and the practices are good 249 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: just in terms of how they spend their money, and 250 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 1: they seem to identify just great talent overall. Their player 251 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: development staff, you know, has the ability to sort of 252 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: get the most out of and I mean I think 253 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: we see that with the amount of players that they've 254 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: produced that are not only on their opening day rosters, 255 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 1: but everybody's opening the rosters. And then you know, in 256 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: addition to that, of course, you know have a handful 257 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 1: of top one hundred prospects as well. And one host 258 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 1: way to Paula, who seems to be one of the 259 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: biggest movers right now in all of baseball in the 260 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: minor leagues. 261 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, you got. I think we have five Dodgers in 262 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 4: your top one hundred right now. We know there's going 263 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 4: to be more by the time the next update comes out, 264 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 4: because this team just keeps finding different talent. They keep 265 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 4: printing pitching prospect talent. We know that traded away a 266 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 4: couple of guys. He saw Ryan Pepio have a hell 267 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 4: of a game the other day. Let's talk for a 268 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 4: second though. You mentioned de Paula. What can we expect 269 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 4: that as dude he's eighteen, is already making moves. You've 270 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 4: seen the power he showed out in the Prospect breakout game. 271 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 4: Tell us a little bit about the Paula. What you're 272 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 4: liking out of host Sway. 273 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is a guy dating back to around 274 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: the time they signed him because he was born here 275 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: in America, I think was primarily raised here in America. 276 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 1: He's actually the cousin of all time New York City 277 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: basketball great Stefan Marbray, which is a cool, you know 278 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: sort of element, but you know, signed out of the 279 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 1: Dominican Republic and is an outlier in terms of athletic 280 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: and power output. It was something that when they do 281 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: like force plate testing and a lot of this stuff 282 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: that they're now doing behind the scenes. He's a guy 283 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: that really stands out. The skills are there as well, 284 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: right when we look at athletes, we look at players, 285 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: you know, there's that physical athleticism ability, the capacity that 286 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: they have in their body, how much power they can 287 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: get to, that sort of thing, and then you have 288 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: the actual skills, the ability to play the game, to 289 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: put the bat and the ball swing at the right pitches. 290 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 1: DePaul has had that in spades really since he signed. 291 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: We're starting to see him get to in a more 292 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 1: natural way without having to sell out for power in game. 293 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: And I just I think this is a guy that 294 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: the comp that you've sort of heard is also a 295 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: player that came out of the Dodger system as Jeran Alvarez. 296 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: He's called Baby Jordon, I think even by some people 297 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: in the player development side of the Dodgers. But he's 298 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: a really exciting prospect. I think we're starting to see 299 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: that blossom a little bit. And the feedback was really 300 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: loud during the spring, and we're. 301 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 3: Talking with Jeff puntas of Baseball America always happy to 302 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 3: have him on the program. And Jeff, let's talk a 303 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 3: little bit more about Dalton Rushing, because the Los Angeles 304 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: Dodgers have just signed Will Smith to a large extension, 305 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: you know, ten years, one hundred and forty million. He's 306 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 3: obviously not going to be behind the plate for the 307 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 3: next decade. What more can you tell us about Rushing? 308 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, Rushing when he was drafted and then signed out 309 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: of Louisville, did not sign it in the first round technically, 310 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: but was a guy that I think a lot of 311 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: teams had on their board. If the numbers were right, 312 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: they probably could have gone that direction. He's an elite 313 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: hitting prospect. When it comes to contact, he's an insane 314 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: bat speed, just really Tornado type of bat speed. How 315 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: fast the bathoves to his own There's a lot of 316 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: power there. It's really just been a matter of him 317 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: refining himself as a catcher, which is a big part 318 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: of that position, maybe even more so than any other 319 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: position in the major leagues in terms of all the 320 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: things you have to know, all the things you have 321 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: to understand and do really well and then oh, hit, 322 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: by the way, And I think that part of the 323 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: game has been a little bit slower for him. He 324 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: has made some leaps and bounds. He's dealt with some injuries, 325 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: but I think overall, when we take a step back, 326 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: we remove the injury stuff, we remove the defensive questions. 327 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: Just from a pure offensive standpoint, Rushing is a really 328 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 1: exciting prospect and if that means down the road he 329 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: ends up playing a few different positions, or you know, 330 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: see some time in a platoon share, maybe at the 331 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: major league level, play some first base. He's even played 332 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: some outfield over you know, a corner outfield over time. 333 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: And dh is I think he's got sort of that 334 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: contact and power ability to really get there, but has 335 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 1: been I think passed by host way to Palla in 336 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: terms of how we rank out these prospects in the 337 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 1: top of the system. But that's two he determined. As 338 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: I said, you know, twenty twenty three was a bit 339 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: of an injury play gear for him. 340 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, we know with rushing, this is this Dodgers team. 341 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 4: You can never have too many catchers. We're seeing teams 342 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 4: these days more often kind of go to one A, 343 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 4: one B rather than the backup catcher. If you can 344 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 4: save some time, you know, squatting for Will Smith here 345 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 4: and there. But I got a different name I want 346 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 4: to bring up to you. I know he is in 347 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 4: the top one hundred. This is kind of a fan 348 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 4: favorite name right now. Talking Andy Pahz who people are 349 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 4: clamoring for this guy to be called up. Not very 350 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 4: much time at Triple A yet just hit his first homer. 351 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 4: Talk to us a little bit about Andy pa has 352 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 4: What do you see from him? And drop some comps. 353 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 4: I love the uh, I love the comp there for 354 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 4: de Paula. 355 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you know with Pa Haes, you're looking 356 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: you know a little bit more. It's probably like an 357 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: Anthony Sam Canned Air sort of outcome where he's a 358 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: really good, above average major league hitter. There's power there, 359 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: there's contact. You can play a corner outfield spot, but 360 00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: you know, probably not gonna you know, be the gold 361 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: glove and right field or left field where he plays. 362 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: That being said, Pa Hayes has done a ton over 363 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. He'd be able, obviously with 364 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: the big injury to sort of remake his body and 365 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: keep that and coming into this spring, he was a 366 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: bigger guy the last time that I saw him. Arizona 367 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: Fall League at the end of twenty one, and you know, 368 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: he's really sort of trimmed up, and you know, I 369 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: think that's allowed him to be a little bit more explosive. 370 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: He's getting higher exit velocities than he's gotten any point 371 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: in his career. And he's another guy where there is 372 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 1: just a lot of field to hit, and he's a 373 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: guy that hits the ball hard at good angles. Mean 374 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: he's going to put the ball. You can hit a 375 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 1: lot of line drives, it's going to hit a lot 376 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: of homers, and doesn't necessarily have to sell out for 377 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: it either. It's a high skilled player with some power. 378 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: I think defensively, you know, you're you're happy if he's 379 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: a corner average or fringe average corner outfielder. But he's 380 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: going to make his money from hitting. So I think 381 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: he's sort of one of those guys like falls into 382 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: that San Tande or sort of comp where he's a 383 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: guy that could hit anywhere from like two sixty to 384 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: two eighty in any given season with like twenty five 385 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: maybe thirty home runs on the high side. 386 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 3: Jeff, he's in the lower tier of your top one hundred, 387 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 3: but he is in the top one hundred and with 388 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,719 Speaker 3: the struggles that James Outman is having right now offensively 389 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 3: for the Dodgers, do we see Pajas up soon? Do 390 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 3: you think this could be something sooner rather than later. 391 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know, he's on the forty man roster, 392 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,679 Speaker 1: so that's less of a hurdle in terms of getting 393 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: him on to you know, the active roster. Probably just 394 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: a matter of shuffling around. There's obviously it's a deep, 395 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, very very deep major league roster, and there's 396 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: a lot of moving pieces there. But I think you know, 397 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: if Outman struggles or there's another there's an injury in 398 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: the outfield, he's probably an option. Obviously there was a 399 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: recent injury with Jason Haberd. 400 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 4: As we see there Luke on the screen saying, one 401 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 4: of our chats chatters here, Dodger system is the best, 402 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 4: no argument where they have been arguably the best over 403 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 4: the last five years, maybe ten years, I don't know 404 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 4: about that far. But let's look at pitching. You got 405 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 4: to talk pitching. One guy who's in your top one, 406 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 4: top one hundred is Gavin Stone. Saw him start yesterday 407 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 4: in Chicago. A little bit of bad luck against him 408 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 4: thanks to the field conditions we were talking about before, 409 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 4: But Stone is one of those guys. He's We've heard 410 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 4: a lot about the disgusting change up. He's got fastball, 411 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 4: he's got the ability to paint. He just needs to 412 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 4: put it all together. What can we expect from Stone 413 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 4: in the Dodgers' rotation this year? 414 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think you know, it's something that we 415 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: sort of forget with so many pitchers when they first 416 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: come up to the major leagues. There's a huge adjustment period, 417 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: maybe even more so than there is for position players. 418 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: It's just there's there's so much more detail. You know, 419 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: you really can't make any mistakes if you really want 420 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,719 Speaker 1: to be able to execute. Then even sometimes you can 421 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: make a great pitch and somebody still hits it four 422 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty feet. I mean, it's just the nature 423 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: of how baseball is. And I think that you know, 424 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: that experience is something that Stone did experience in his 425 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: initial sort of ascent of the major leagues. We had 426 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 1: huge expectations last year, and as often happens with pitching prospects, 427 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: they don't really perform the first time they're up. But 428 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 1: he went down at Triple A. He made some adjustments 429 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: we saw a better version of that. We then saw 430 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: a better version of that in spring, and I think 431 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 1: sort of in his first start and as he said, 432 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: dealt with some bad luck and some weather considerations. But 433 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: what I'm seeing underneath the hood is he's really sort 434 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: of changed his approach when it comes to his fastball. 435 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: He's throwing a lot more sinkers now than he through 436 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: last year. Everything in his arsenal is up a few 437 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 1: miles per hour, including the changeups in the off speeds, 438 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 1: which I think for a pitcher like Stone, when he 439 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: doesn't have incredible fastball shape like someone like emittt Sheehan 440 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 1: or you know others that have been in the Dodgers' 441 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: rotation over the years, he sort of needs that extra 442 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: velocity and location. We've seen that. The other thing that 443 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 1: I think is really interesting is he's sort of using 444 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: this this triangle of fastball approach where the cutter last 445 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: year was a little bit more of like a hybrid 446 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: breaking ball cut fastball, where he's got a lot more 447 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 1: vertical movement on it in terms of ride. This year 448 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: a little bit less horizontal movement, so it's a little 449 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: bit more like a cut fastball, and it's up two 450 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:31,959 Speaker 1: to three miles per hour. I think it's up to 451 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: like ninety two point five from like eighty eighty nine 452 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: last year ninety, So that's a big jump in terms 453 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 1: of the shape, and I think that allows his change 454 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: up to really play off of that fastball when you 455 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: don't necessarily know how much it's going to move one way, 456 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: how much it's going to ride, or you know if 457 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: it's going to be a cutter, so it sort of 458 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 1: gives him a different plan of attack. I think that's 459 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: something I've seen with Stone that has been really encouraging 460 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: and I'm sure was deliberate with this Dodgers player development 461 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 1: and digging staff. 462 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 3: Jeh. We've mentioned a couple guys here obviously with Depaula 463 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 3: and Rushing and Gavin Stone, But is there anybody else 464 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 3: that we should be paying attention to who should fans 465 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 3: know about? 466 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know we obviously mentioned the guys that are 467 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: sort of in that top one hundred. The other players 468 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: that I think are really interesting that are just sort 469 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: of on the cusp. There's one shortstop infielder in the 470 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: organization by the name of Joinery Vargas. Vargas is a 471 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: player that has come up you know, well into the 472 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: end of last season. In terms of on the cusp 473 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: of the top one hundred, there's usually about a hundred 474 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: and fifty players that we turn in and sort of 475 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: debate and rank out and great and sort of go 476 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: through our reporting, et cetera. And Vargas was a player 477 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: that you know, potentially we thought, you know, could jump 478 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: onto the top one hundred very soon. I think we're 479 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,639 Speaker 1: going to see him really shortly in terms of where 480 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: his ascent is. 481 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 4: There. 482 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 1: There's a couple other pitching prospects as well, as there 483 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 1: always is with the Dodgers, Jackson Ferris, you know, left 484 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: hand or that they got, you know, in the Michael 485 00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: Bush trade. Also Zier Hope, who had massive opening weekend 486 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 1: had three home runs, two guys that they acquired. And 487 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 1: you know, I think this just goes to show anytime 488 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 1: the Dodgers are in contention and they're looking to trade 489 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 1: for your prospects, beware And I don't think the Cubs 490 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: regret trading Michael Bush at this point, but I think, 491 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 1: you know, ten fifteen years down the line, we might 492 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,479 Speaker 1: be talking about a little bit differently. Of course, then 493 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: you got River Ryan, you got Kyle hurt, Peyton Martin 494 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: and a guy who's off our top thirty list. But 495 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: I think we'll jump on seventh round our to Marshall 496 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: Patrick Copen throws really really hard as a sweeper that 497 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 1: I've been told he's been up to eighty eight miles 498 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 1: an hour, like fourteen inches of horizontal break. So just 499 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: more nasty stuff in the pipeline for the Dodgers. Not 500 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: a shock. 501 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 3: I'm gonna need to see Ferris and Bueler on the 502 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 3: same twenty five man roster soon as soon as possible. 503 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 3: Please make that happen, Clint, what do you got for him? 504 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 4: Yeah? I got one last one, one of the names 505 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 4: I know folks are vill also very excited, one of 506 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 4: the pitching names. We could see him this year if 507 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 4: things go really really wrong. But is River Ryan another 508 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 4: one of those kind of Andrew fleeceman deals? 509 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 2: Uh? 510 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 4: That pull? I think it was from the Padres. How 511 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 4: far away is somebody like a River Ryan? And how 512 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 4: far did he miss on your top one hundred? 513 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: Sure he's sort of creeping out in the cusp. The 514 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: issue with some of these Dodgers guys in the top 515 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: one hundred is the top of the system is sort 516 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: of so deep, and there's nobody that's like a top 517 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: five to ten prospect in the entire top one hundred 518 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: is there's like a bunch of guys who are kind 519 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: of locked out by other players, and I think if 520 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: we could shuffle, maybe reorder and certainly there's some other 521 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: outlets out there, river Ryan on the top one hundred. 522 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: It's a great slider, he throws really hard. The fastball 523 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: has pretty good shape, but he's going to have to 524 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: locate it in terms of developing the third pitch. I 525 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: think has been the biggest question that we've kind of 526 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: bounced around with Ryan as to whether he's a top 527 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: one hundred prospect or not. I tend to be more 528 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: on the pro Ryan side. I think he's a really 529 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: interesting prospect when you think about what his background is 530 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 1: the fact that he was a two way player at 531 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: a small school Division two in college and then really 532 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: didn't pitch when he was drafted by the podres if 533 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: he only played positionally and then was acquired enough, of 534 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: course in that trade prior to the season, and I 535 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: just don't think that he necessarily has the same development 536 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: story that a typical twenty three twenty four year old 537 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 1: college player a couple of years out of his draft 538 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: necessarily has so I think that means there's a little 539 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: bit more steiling there, a little bit more development. 540 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 3: I have to ask you this one final question before 541 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 3: I let you go, Jeff. We always know that the 542 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 3: Dodgers don't rebuild, they just reload. 543 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 2: Who has the deeper farm system? 544 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 3: In your opinion, as you have your work with Baseball America, 545 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 3: the Dodgers are the Orioles. 546 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:37,199 Speaker 4: You know. 547 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: I think for the moment it's still the Orioles. You 548 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 1: look at that Norfolk team, and we had a debate 549 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: on this actually in one of our podcasts over the 550 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 1: last week and it came out today. But I think 551 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: that that team could take forty five fifty games, even 552 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 1: in one hundred games against the Oakra Athletics. Like they're 553 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 1: that load in the top of that lineup, I think 554 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 1: you'd probably take over it. We'll see, you know, in 555 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: terms of what they acquire this year in the draft. 556 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 1: But we could come back here in July and half 557 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: of those guys are graduated or traded to all the organizations, 558 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: and the conversation could be very different. I think that 559 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: the international pipeline has been better for the Dodgers, and 560 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 1: I think certainly you can't argue against the Dodgers' pitching 561 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 1: development being better than the Orioles, though I think the 562 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: Orioles are a little underrated in that area, the top 563 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 1: end talent. I mean, when you draft, you know, number 564 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 1: one in the draft a bunch of different years, and 565 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: the Dodgers don't have that luxury. You know, it adds 566 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: some bonus money and also less you do a couple 567 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: of things in terms of players that Dodgers just don't 568 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: have access to. 569 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 4: Yeah. 570 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 3: On our dork of the Week segment on Fair Territory 571 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 3: with Ken Rosenthal, I said, my dork of the week 572 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 3: was whoever decided Jackson Holiday should be in the minor leagues. 573 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 3: But that's neither here nor there. Jeff Onesa, thank you 574 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 3: so much. We appreciate it. It's always great to have 575 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 3: you on the program.

Hey, just talking about 585 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 3: that guy, Charlie Condon being a player to watch. Hot 586 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 3: sheet is available on the Baseball America YouTube channel and 587 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 3: wherever you get your podcasts awesome having Jeff on the 588 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 3: program as well, and we're going to talk a little 589 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 3: bit more Dodgers, of course here on Dodgers' territory. We 590 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 3: have about, you know, ten to fifteen minutes left in 591 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 3: the show. I want to ask you this though show. Hey, 592 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 3: o Tani Clint, we have some more information on the 593 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:38,719 Speaker 3: infamous ball, the home run ball heard around the world. 594 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 3: It seems like the Dodgers did the right thing. The 595 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 3: fan seems to be happy. Can we put this to bed? 596 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 4: Feels like we can put it to bed, so, of course, 597 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 4: after we wrap last Thursday's show, the article drops not 598 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 4: too long after that. Oh, the Dodgers were rushing the 599 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 4: fan through this, the situation. They were strong arming her 600 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 4: allegedly to either give us the ball or we're not 601 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 4: going to authenticate it, and all that lot of a 602 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 4: lot of online vitriol spilled about this when you kind 603 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 4: of wonder is like, hey, maybe these people are hearing 604 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 4: about are reading all the tweets and being like, crap, 605 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,479 Speaker 4: we could have gotten more. Ultimately, it seems like this 606 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 4: thing is trending towards the right direction. It's trending towards 607 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 4: a happy resolution where they the Dodgers did reach out 608 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 4: to the fan and her husband. They are going to 609 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 4: welcome them to the stadium, which is nice on her birthday. 610 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 4: April twelfth is when that is scheduled. And I think 611 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 4: they listen to us and listen to you about that 612 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 4: idea of being there in the dugout club, getting themselves 613 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 4: a yeah on the field club level and a whole 614 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 4: bunch of access. So I'm going to say, you're a 615 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 4: part of this. You're you're a part of the solution, really, Ilana, 616 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 4: because you said get them some tickets, good ones at that. Yeah. 617 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,640 Speaker 3: You know, I'm usually part of the problem, but I'm 618 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 3: happy to be part of the solution in this instance. 619 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right. 620 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 3: April twelfth or birthday birthday, meet and greet with players 621 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 3: during BP seats in the dugout Club. By the way, 622 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 3: eat as much as you can, because I tell you 623 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 3: what the Lexus dugout club food is legit. I used 624 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 3: to eat there every day day. I was very lucky 625 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 3: to be able to do that. And again, it's baseball, right, 626 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 3: We're not hearing cancer here. Let's make this a fun 627 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 3: experience for everybody. Show hey has the money, sho hey 628 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 3: has the opportunity to make somebody's life and incredibly happy. 629 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 3: On the other side of that, I'm talking out of 630 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 3: both sides of my mouth here. You don't have the 631 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 3: right to hold something like that hostage. I think, be fair, 632 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 3: you know, let's just be fair. But I'm glad it 633 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 3: worked out. Dodgers are doing the right thing as they should. 634 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 3: They've always been a class the organization. I see no 635 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 3: reason why that should not continue. So all is well, 636 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 3: that ends well, correct, Clint, what would you ask for? 637 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 3: Like you personally, what would you ask for if you 638 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 3: happen to be in the stands and you got that ball? 639 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: Again? 640 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 4: I mean, this is a different situation there. You got 641 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 4: to figure your few modellos deep into the game, So 642 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 4: maybe maybe fifteen dollars back I'd spend on two or 643 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 4: three beers. I think ultimately what she ends up getting 644 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 4: is it's pretty decent. You know, a couple of it 645 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 4: was a signed baseball, signed bat, a couple of signed hats, 646 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 4: and then she's gonna get a full VIP experience from 647 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 4: the team, allegedly or reportedly, gonna be able to meet players, 648 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 4: bring whatever she wants to have signed, and then, like 649 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 4: you said, the get the nice seating there, eat everything 650 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 4: you can possibly eat in the dugout club. That's pretty decent, 651 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 4: because I would feel really bad, possibly you know, saying 652 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 4: that I'm keeping such an important milestone homer from show 653 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 4: Hay or whoever it may be. Like that means a 654 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 4: lot more to show Hey than it means to most 655 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 4: other people. So let him have his ball, get your 656 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 4: moment in the sun, and get a little bit of return. 657 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 4: All of the autograph stuff is gonna be worth something 658 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 4: down the road as well. 659 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 3: Moment in the sun no pun intended, as we just 660 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 3: had a total solar eclips go over us while we're. 661 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 2: Doing this show. 662 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 3: It is time now for last licks, all right, This 663 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 3: last lick opportunity is to talk to you, Clint Passias 664 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 3: about Santa.

I've never met him. 680 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 3: I know he started Barstool Sports and now he's a gazillionaire. 681 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 3: But he adopted a dog by the name of Miss Peaches, 682 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 3: and that dog already has a million followers on Instagram. 683 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 3: You and I could spend the rest of our lives 684 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 3: trying to get a million followers on combined, and we 685 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 3: wouldn't be able to get a million followers. But she 686 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 3: is a pit bull mix and he is helping advocate 687 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 3: for that that breed because bullies are so misrepresented and 688 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 3: so misunderstood. So thank you David Portnoy for doing that. 689 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 3: I think it's important. Bullies are so misunderstood, and I'm 690 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 3: so happy that we're getting some good publicity out there 691 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 3: for them.
