WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:03.839
And we keep it moving on a
Fridays, moving fast, Jason Smith,

2
00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:07.719
moving fast like you do, cat
quick baby. Oh, last day of

3
00:00:07.719 --> 00:00:10.839
the PAC twelve man, Last day
of the PAC twelve, Last day,

4
00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:14.080
last day. And you know on
that last day we're gonna have to get

5
00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:18.199
our spirituality in so Vic. The
Brig Jacob is gonna bring that to us

6
00:00:18.440 --> 00:00:21.640
in just a little bit. But
right now, let's bring on the barbecue.

7
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:24.719
Brother, the man with the plan
and the man has the answers,

8
00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:30.359
my brother, David Bassey, David
Bassay, what's happening? Oh, Rodney,

9
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:33.759
great to talk to you again.
What's up? Jason? And Rodney?

10
00:00:33.799 --> 00:00:37.840
I forgot to tell you earlier this
week. Yours truly did beat your

11
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:44.280
son RJ's fantasy football team last weekend. It wasn't even close. Ah ah

12
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:48.079
you you took it out on RJ
and the clubbies. I did. I

13
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:51.159
did. I took him. I
took him and put him over my knee

14
00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:58.159
and gave him thanking. Oh I've
had He's visiting his mom in Atlanta.

15
00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:03.320
When he gets back, I'm gonna
call you and put him on the Oh

16
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:07.000
you would enjoy that. Yeah,
absolutely all right, Dave, you reported

17
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.439
this man so I want to hear
from you. Is there any tan Jack

18
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:15.439
Peterson comes back. Well, speaking
of RJ, you know how much Jock

19
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:18.879
and RJ love each other. There
is a chance, Rodney. I know

20
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:23.599
there has been contact between the two
sides. Nothing is close, but certainly

21
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:30.200
Jack Peterson is on the radar.
And last year the Dodgers had interest in

22
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:37.239
bringing back Jock Peterson. The only
issue was that the Giants extended the qualifying

23
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:42.280
offer to Jock, which was nineteen
million dollars for one year, and he

24
00:01:42.319 --> 00:01:46.599
could not turn that down. He
went back and now as a free agent,

25
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:51.799
they cannot offer the qualifying offer a
second time. So if the Dodgers

26
00:01:51.879 --> 00:01:56.400
do decide to bring back Jock Peterson, it would be in a role where

27
00:01:56.680 --> 00:02:00.439
he would platoon in left field,
essentially taking the role of David Peralta.

28
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:07.040
But basically, David Peralta and everybody
else have never come close to replacing what

29
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:12.759
Jack Peterson and Keith k Hernandez did
for the Dodgers during the twenty fifteen all

30
00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:17.919
going to twenty twenty. They've never
been really able to replace those two guys

31
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:23.120
in that combination of left and right. And I know talking to Key k

32
00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:28.479
after the game in Arizona, he
said he was open to coming back to

33
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:31.199
the Dodgers, and I believe the
Dodgers are open to bringing him back as

34
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:36.120
well. So it's not out of
the question that you could possibly see Keith

35
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:39.520
Ky and Jock Peterson back on the
same team wearing blue. Yeah. Two

36
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:43.680
guys have been clutching the playoffs for
the Dodgers over the years. Man.

37
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:47.560
And speaking of fantasy football, we
know the fantasy team and the Dodgers will

38
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:52.879
be better if Jock Peterson comes back, right, you better not include Tommy

39
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:59.319
samm in that league. Hey,
Dave, As it looks as things go

40
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:00.960
with the meetings coming up this week
in Nashville, you're going to be there.

41
00:03:01.319 --> 00:03:07.680
Rodney and I talked about this earlier
today. Pitching hitting Is it a

42
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:10.639
combination of both avenues for the Dodgers. What are you seeing how the next

43
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:16.960
week or so plays out? Well? Certainly starting pitching is at the forefront

44
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:22.520
of the agenda for the Dodgers,
but it is for virtually every other team

45
00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:28.800
out there. The difference is the
Dodgers have obviously the financial might and also

46
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:35.800
the roster flexibility to add top rotation
pieces, and also they have a lot

47
00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:39.080
of Uh, they have a lot
of good young pitching that showed they can

48
00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:44.120
be really good at the major league
level, and that's what the White Sox

49
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:49.520
are looking at. If you're talking
about Dylan Cees and my understanding, I

50
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:53.960
know we were all excited about the
prospects of Corbyn Burns being on the block,

51
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:57.919
but by all accounts the people I
talk to around baseball, the Brewers

52
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:02.599
seam intent on holding on to Burns
and seeing where their season goes, and

53
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:06.240
if they're out of it, then
they would consider trading Burns, who's a

54
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:10.680
free agent at the end of the
year. But by all accounts right now

55
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:15.759
they are not open to trading him. So the trade market has shrunk as

56
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:21.240
far as that goes. And everybody
believes Dylan sees the rumors, the talks,

57
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:28.439
they are going to get really hot
starting Sunday in Nashville. What about

58
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:30.639
some of the other guys, Dave, like Jordan Montgomery, Wade Miley or

59
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:36.000
Clevenger. Yeah, I don't know
about those guys. I don't believe any

60
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:41.839
of those maybe, with the exception
of Jordan Montgomery are on the Dodgers radar.

61
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:46.480
Lucas Giolito, I know, has
had talks with the Dodgers. They

62
00:04:46.519 --> 00:04:50.319
believe they can help get his career
back on track. And he's a local

63
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.480
kid out of Harvard Westlake. He
would slot in in that four or five

64
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:59.839
spot in their rotation. So that's
a guy they have had serious discussions with.

65
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:04.319
And as far as another trade possibility, Shane Bieber of the Guardians could

66
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:10.240
be a partner with the Dodgers.
I wouldn't say he's the same Shane Bieber

67
00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:12.959
that he was a couple of years
ago, but he would fall in the

68
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:16.839
same category as Dylan Cea said,
number two, number three type of reliable

69
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:21.160
starter in their rotation. Dave,
when it comes to Otani, you know

70
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:25.959
we're hearing today that hey, it
could be a week long process. We

71
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:30.439
could get some clarity coming up soon. You had the fascinating report last time

72
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:34.839
that we got to talk that hey, don't discount that Otani might stay for

73
00:05:34.879 --> 00:05:39.560
a year or two with the Angels
and get back to free agency after he

74
00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:43.839
proves he can still pitch. I
mean that that's something that's just absolutely mind

75
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:47.000
blowing, that that that he could
stay there and this is something that could

76
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:51.800
be how this all plays out.
Is that something that you still are you

77
00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:56.040
still hearing that, you still see
that that being a possibility though Toanni could

78
00:05:56.199 --> 00:06:00.959
maybe stay for a year or two
with the Angels. Yeah, Actually talking

79
00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:03.720
to somebody with the Angels today,
they told me, you know what,

80
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:08.399
it's not out of the realm of
possibility. The Angels are still in this

81
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:12.279
thing. It's all up to Artie
Moreno, of course, but the teams

82
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:15.160
that I'm hearing and what you know, this is what I've heard in the

83
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:21.120
last twenty four hours. Teams believe
that the reports out there about the Blue

84
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:27.000
Jays being in on Otani is very
real. And the way it was put

85
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:31.079
to me from just a handful of
people I've spoken to around the league,

86
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:34.839
they believe it's the Dodgers, the
Cubs, the Blue Jays, and like

87
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:42.879
I said, don't discount the Angels. I can't go to the Angels.

88
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:46.480
Can you see him going back to
the Angels? I don't know about that.

89
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.079
Just to make it clear, guy, guys, I have said this

90
00:06:49.639 --> 00:06:54.839
going back two years. I'm not
sure if you remember this guy, Chris

91
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:58.839
Martin. He was a really good
reliever with the Dodgers, went to Boston

92
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:02.519
last year, was great. He
was teammates with shoe hey Otani in Japan

93
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:06.959
for a short time for one season, and he said, being around him

94
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:13.160
in Japan and you know, being
teammates with him, he believes that Otani

95
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:16.800
has mapped out his entire career and
at that stage in Japan, still not

96
00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:21.360
here in Major League Baseball, believed
he had mapped out his career at that

97
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:26.800
point as well. And he believed
and he told me this when he was

98
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:30.240
with the Dodgers, and he doubled
down when I saw him in Boston this

99
00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:35.279
year. He believes Otani already knows
where he's going to sign, so whatever

100
00:07:35.399 --> 00:07:40.639
team he signs with, uh,
there is no wooing or trying to,

101
00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:44.680
uh, you know, roll out
the red carpet for Otani. He believes

102
00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:49.199
Otani already knows what team and has
envisioned already at this stage of his career,

103
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:55.120
what team he is going to play
for. Wow. Wow, that

104
00:07:55.439 --> 00:08:00.959
wild the kind of guy he is, And that doesn't surprise me at all

105
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:03.839
though the way you know, he
kind of interacts and does his own thing

106
00:08:03.959 --> 00:08:07.839
and walks to the beat of his
own drama, that that does not shock

107
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:11.519
me at all that he's got it
all mapped out. Day. But let

108
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:13.759
me ask this. So, if
it's so, Dave, if this is

109
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:18.120
the case, would possibility exist,
if this is how things go, Could

110
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:20.319
the Dodgers get involved and say,
well, if you want to do two

111
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:24.639
years until you get you know,
until you feel about hey, we we

112
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:28.040
can do whatever you want. We're
right up the road here, right,

113
00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:30.360
we can do two years for you
tell us what you need. Could the

114
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:33.840
Dodgers get involved if if that's a
case or is this a it's angels for

115
00:08:33.879 --> 00:08:37.440
one or two years and that's the
only team that be involved for that right

116
00:08:37.519 --> 00:08:41.200
And then if you look at it, it's going to be a long term

117
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:46.159
deal with other teams, and my
understanding, many people in baseball believe there

118
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:50.519
are going to be multiple opt outs
in a long term contract. So it

119
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.440
essentially works in the same way day
we talked about a possible reunion with Jock

120
00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:01.039
Peterson, Is there a possible reunion
with Hinjin Reu? I wouldn't roll that

121
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:05.200
out of the question either. You
know, the Dodgers are opening up their

122
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:09.919
season in South Korea this year.
First two games with regular season are in

123
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:16.360
South Korea. And look, the
Dodgers have made a living out of buying

124
00:09:16.480 --> 00:09:20.879
low and getting the most out of
a lot of pitchers, and you would

125
00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:26.480
fall in to that category coming back
from arm issues again with the Blue Jays,

126
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:30.919
Tommy John with the Blue Jays,
So he would be a by low

127
00:09:31.039 --> 00:09:33.919
type of candidate, Rodney, So
I would not roll it out later in

128
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:37.720
the offseason, all right, Dave, Now, Yallamoto's a guy that's going

129
00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:41.679
to probably wind up getting the richest
non Otani contract of anybody. It just

130
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:45.320
keeps going up and up every day. Two hundred million in the posting money

131
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:48.600
two fifty two seventy five. We've
heard the Dodgers are are all in on

132
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:52.440
him and they're really close. Other
NL teams are starting to get in the

133
00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:56.639
bidding on him. What do you
think it's going to end up being money

134
00:09:56.639 --> 00:09:58.120
wise at the end of the day, And isn't enough The Dodgers are going

135
00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:03.639
to stay in it until the end. Yeah. My understanding Jason is Yamamoto

136
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.360
is a big Dodger fan as well, so he wants to pitch for the

137
00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:13.519
Dodgers. From what I'm understanding,
whether or not financially that works out still

138
00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:18.159
remains to be seen. And if
you look at the time that Andrew Friedman

139
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:24.240
has been with the Dodgers. The
closest that he's ever come to paying any

140
00:10:24.279 --> 00:10:28.919
picture the type of dollars that we're
hearing it's going to take to sign Yamamoto

141
00:10:30.600 --> 00:10:35.000
is when he tried to sign Garrett
Cole for close to three hundred million dollars.

142
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:39.320
He obviously want to pitch for the
Yankees. So I'm still I'll believe

143
00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:45.840
it when I see it that Andrew
Friedman signs any pitcher that has not you

144
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:48.960
know, just I'll believe it when
I see it. Yeah, yeah,

145
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:54.879
Dave, Before we let you go, what's the word on Miguel Vargas.

146
00:10:54.679 --> 00:11:00.840
Is he someone that's still in the
Dodgers' plans or no? Well, his

147
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.759
values at an all time low,
so if he tried to trade him,

148
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:07.679
you're not gonna get the same value
you would have gotten a year ago at

149
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:13.279
this time, So I would say
he's not untouchable Rodney. But if he

150
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.600
does roll it back with the Dodgers
next year, it will be a combination

151
00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:20.000
of second base, third base,
and left field because of the way Mookie

152
00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:28.120
played it second and they've re signed
Jason Hayward. All Right, Davids again

153
00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:33.200
ready for the big goings on in
Nashville. Wait, you're on the show

154
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:37.080

155
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:43.360
will be live next Tuesday night from
Brad Paisley's farm in Nashville, Tennis.

156
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:48.159
That's right. I can't wait to
get the lowdown on that day. Oh

157
00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:50.279
yeah, big Dodger fan, big
Dodger fan. You guys see him all

158
00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:56.039
the time, Rodney, And for
whatever reason, he likes Dodger Talk and

159
00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:58.759
the way I do it. So
he invited me to the farm. Very

160
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:01.360
very cool, very cool. Is
he gonna do some songs? Like is

161
00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:03.799
it gonna be you talking Dodgers?
He does a song? He talked Dodgers.

162
00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:07.279
He does a song. Is that
how it's gonna go? Uh wow?

163
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:11.320
I haven't thought about it that way. Maybe you could send me some

164
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:13.600
of his song names, Jason.
Don't let him know I'm not well versed

165
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:18.559
in this catalog. Well, he's
got to have a Dodger song ready for

166
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:22.519
you. He's to have his own
Dodger song ready. I'm you know what,

167
00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:24.840
he might have one. He might
have one, so he will be

168
00:12:24.879 --> 00:12:28.519
in the man cave. I'm sure
there's a guitar or two laying around.

169
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:31.799
Very cool, And you can still
check out Jason Hayward. That interview with

170
00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:37.519
him was great as well. On
the podcast, David Beth's sake, appreciate

171
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:41.639
you joining us. Many appreciate you
joining. Looking forward to talking to you

172
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:46.039
next week. Dave. All right, I just have a great weekend,

173
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:48.000
He goes, our man, David
say, he can have a good time

174
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:52.759
down there. Now. Can you
imagine Otani back to the Angels? That

175
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:56.919
is that is telling you, man, that's wild. But the fact that

176
00:12:56.919 --> 00:13:01.559
he's got it all mapped out is
kind of really interesting. But it doesn't,

177
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:03.679
Like I said, it doesn't shock
me that he's got it all planned

178
00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:05.320
out. I'm gonna be with the
Angels for this amount of years and I'm

179
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:07.960
gonna go play for the Dodgers for
the rest of it. I'm not getting

180
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:11.080
out of the West Coast. I
like to see that. Uh gotta have

181
00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:16.039
that spirituality though. When we come
back, our man Victor Brick is joining

182
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:22.320
us for a little high coup.
Yeah. Santa Claus Lane, Ronnie,

183
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.759
that's where we're going, Jason Smith, We've been going to Santa Claus Lane.

184
00:13:26.879 --> 00:13:31.480
It's where Rodney used to go to
collect his checks. Let's go to

185
00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:35.759
Santa Claus Lane. Come on man
last night of the PAC twelve. Tonight.

186
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:39.600
You can't help yourself. Your checks
don't clear anymore. You check your

187
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:43.919
checks are done. My goodness,
yes they have been done. They have

188
00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:48.840
been done since nineteen eighty nine.
Dear mister Pete, thank you for your

189
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:52.320
service. This concludes our business.
Good luck. Let's move on. Let's

190
00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:58.240
move on because after that statement,
we're gonna need some spirituality. As you're

191
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:07.240
corrupting me. Let's bring him out
because we desperately need it. And to

192
00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:16.759
provide that ultimate spiritual essence is the
one and only Vic, the Brig Jacobs

193
00:14:16.879 --> 00:14:26.879
and Vic. Good afternoon. He's
picking up the pieces of the PAC twelve.

194
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:39.399
Rodney petely BDB. What a great
void it will be from the Pack

195
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.480
eight to the PAC ten to the
Pac twelve. I mean, growing up

196
00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:50.200
in New York, I would be
so under the influence of West Coast football.

197
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:58.480
I loved it so the high octane
offenses, the exotic play calling,

198
00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:05.240
the great talent. This is indeed, I mean, I understand, we

199
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:09.759
understand the power of the narrow,
but the power of the of the pack,

200
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:18.879
the Pacific Conference and it's so many
stars and its impact on the game.

201
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:22.679
It's it's when we look at Washington
Oregon tonight. It's gonna be a

202
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:28.679
very emotional game. Then only you
know, for those two schools to you

203
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:31.240
know, to move into the you
know, the ultimate playoff. But the

204
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:39.519
conference itself, it's a sad,
sad time. Yeah, Vic, so

205
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:43.960
many memories. It's the sad thing
that the West Coast doesn't have a powerful

206
00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:48.000
conference. I mean, there's so
much pride out here and to lose that

207
00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:52.399
makes no sense. Vic was running
the PAC twelve. We'd still have the

208
00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:56.080
PAC twelve. Agreed, we'd have
the PAC twenty four. It would be

209
00:15:56.120 --> 00:16:02.039
the PAC twenty four Flavor Conference.
That's what it would be. You're telling

210
00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:03.360
me, I would not screw up
the TV contract. That's the shore up.

211
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:10.320
No, you wouldn't. I wouldn't
be paying exorbitant rents in San Francisco.

212
00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:14.679
I don't. I don't want to
spoiler from you, but is your

213
00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:18.759
high Coup about Larry Scott? I
just have to ask, not even close.

214
00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:27.240
Okay, it's not even about Byron
Scott. Okay, Scott Fitzgerald.

215
00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:38.080
He's in for Fred and he wants
to love himself some yam a Moto Jason

216
00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:48.120
Smith, Oh King Flavor yam A
Moto coming to New York. Everyone's everyone's

217
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:56.919
got the cash for Yama Moto.
We'll see who steps up. A multi

218
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:07.319
skilled executive producer seventy eighth and Vermont
Kevin Figures come on now and he dazzles

219
00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:11.079
us daily, told us list to
us with his musical repertoire. Alright,

220
00:17:11.079 --> 00:17:17.519
if Fossio have gong, we'll travel
y'all. King Flavor, Yeah, I

221
00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:18.880
did the King Flavor. You gotta
do something. I did the King Flavor

222
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:26.319
today. Okay, let me do
it again. Ready, this is for

223
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:33.440
you, Jason Smith. Okay,
he's a mighty bench. It's King Flavor.

224
00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:40.400
He v t b otherwise known.
Thank you. You went to King

225
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:42.720
Flavor again though, No, but
no, but at the end I said

226
00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:47.519
no at the end, I changed
it. At the end. I just

227
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:52.160
threw it in there to annoy Jason. No. I don't know about you,

228
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:59.519
guys. I can't get enough of
Tony watch more hardware for the Mount

229
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:03.960
Fuji of Masforte. He wins a
third straight Designated Hitter of the Year award.

230
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:08.599
Oh, can't get enough. Remember
those numbers. I mean, that's

231
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:12.400
why he's gonna be paid six hundred. You know A million whatever, forty

232
00:18:12.400 --> 00:18:18.680
four home runs, ninety six runs, better than eight triples, twenty stolen

233
00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:21.839
bases, and he missed like what
the last two months now they missed fifty

234
00:18:21.839 --> 00:18:26.519
games and he still did that.
Hey, did you hear David Masse talking

235
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:29.880
about he's got his career all mapped
out? Vic he already knows where he's

236
00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:36.559
going. Doesn't surprise me, Right, He's a very, very attention to

237
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:47.839
detail oriented fellow, loves routine,
loves being close to the ballpark, always

238
00:18:47.839 --> 00:18:55.920
has been, even you know in
Japan. You know we were talking Yamamoto,

239
00:18:56.000 --> 00:19:06.160
But obviously it's all about Oltani and
the schmooz fest I believe is still

240
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:12.680
on and still relevant of Otanisan.
I mean, there's heavy vibes that the

241
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:18.599
team Otani wants to make a deal
in Nashville. They want to get it

242
00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:21.039
done. That's what I'm here,
and they want to get a deal done

243
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:23.839
in Nashville. Will it happen?
We'll see. David Vessey will be direct

244
00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:30.000
from Nashville, Tennessee giving us daily
reports of what's happening. But the team

245
00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:37.720
Otanisan resonating that they want to get
something done. They want they don't want

246
00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:40.240
to wait till you know twenty twenty
four. They just they want to get

247
00:19:40.240 --> 00:19:45.920
Otani in place. They want to
make a deal in Nashville, Tennessee.

248
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:52.839
It's the inside track to secure Otoni. San Why the azul Why the Dodgers,

249
00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:57.440
Let me count the ways, talk
to me. Number one, nobody

250
00:19:57.519 --> 00:20:07.400
will outbid the Blue. Nobody nobody
out bears the Blue, not even the

251
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:11.960
the evil Empire in New York.
No, the Yankees, the Red Sox

252
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:18.359
are out of it. Toronto suddenly
is in the conversation. What about far

253
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:26.119
Hunt. They'll be talking, but
he has a track record of failure going

254
00:20:26.119 --> 00:20:33.039
after free ations. It's not gonna
stop. He's the one that had a

255
00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:36.079
bad need. Oh no, that
was Carlos Carea that had the bad need

256
00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:41.640
that he couldn't sign it. Yeah, Aaron Judge led them on. Listen,

257
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:42.880
Atisa wants to win. Now,
you're not gonna win with the hated

258
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:49.279
ones who are basically you know and
the post bust a posy. There's they're

259
00:20:49.319 --> 00:20:57.920
seeking talent, you know, far
hunting the tough situation up there. Number

260
00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:03.000
two, while tiny son will sign
with the Dodgers, the way of the

261
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:11.519
azul otonisn loves the legacy of the
blue. Number three, the winning traditions.

262
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:21.480
As I repeat myself, tisn wants
to win now. Number four Dave

263
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:26.920
Roberts the only Major League Baseball skipper
with the Japanese flavor. Dave gets it.

264
00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:38.200
That's an influencing factor. He's the
perfect manager for Otanissan. Number five

265
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:45.079
Dodger fans o sees and appreciates the
amazing loyalty of the CEO DoD and their

266
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:48.319
love for the Dodgers. I backed
it up one, Vic sorry, does

267
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:52.599
Dave Roberts? Is he fluent in
Japanese? Does he speak Japanese? Do

268
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:56.319
we know that? I believe he
speaks a little Japanese. Okay, I'm

269
00:21:56.319 --> 00:22:00.559
not sure if he's fluent, but
you know his Japanese flavor for uh,

270
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:06.240
it's very acute you. They'll find
it. His mom is Japanese. I

271
00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:07.720
mean, I did I realize he's
half Japanese. I just don't know.

272
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:11.960
That doesn't mean that he speaks Japanese. No, they'll find a way to

273
00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:15.240
tell him. Six hundred million dollars, they will find that way. They

274
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:18.039
will find it. We can get
along. You understands how to get along,

275
00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:22.160
but vic BLI does. So we
have to trust Vic, I'm just

276
00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:26.119
saying, I don't know if that
just the very fact that he happens to

277
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:30.240
be have Japanese, I don't know
if that's necessary, don't doesn't hurt.

278
00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:33.279
Vic. Let me ask you a
question, like saying like, oh yeah,

279
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:34.559
Blake's now you Black Souls are on
Washington, You're gonna sign with the

280
00:22:34.599 --> 00:22:40.480
Angels. That works. I just
don't think it works that way. Vic.

281
00:22:40.559 --> 00:22:47.599
If if show Hey Otani signs with
the Dodgers, how quickly are you

282
00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:52.480
going to leave the wittier dojo and
head to Dodger Stadium and hands show hey

283
00:22:53.119 --> 00:22:59.200
the blue bamboo and show him the
way? Vic? Well, number one,

284
00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:03.640
show he already know away he knows
the way. But does he?

285
00:23:04.880 --> 00:23:10.640
I mean, I will be ecstatic, and I will I will not vibe

286
00:23:10.680 --> 00:23:15.880
out until he's you know, he
signs with the Dodgers, but we know

287
00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:19.359
he's close. So, Vick,
you didn't answer the question. You didn't

288
00:23:19.359 --> 00:23:23.119
answer the question. You skirted the
question. Would you come out of your

289
00:23:23.119 --> 00:23:30.400
wittier dojo and be like the Dodger
Stadium to break bread with Sho Tan until

290
00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:34.079
I get you know, my my
my health back and working order. I

291
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:40.720
will just be reaching out of you
know via you know, zoom or email

292
00:23:40.799 --> 00:23:45.559
whatever, but I'm not I'm not
going to be there directly in the house

293
00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:49.359
until you know I am fully one
hundred Vic. I'll pick you up.

294
00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:52.720
I'll go pick you up, and
I'll drive you to Dodgers Stadium myself.

295
00:23:55.319 --> 00:24:00.880
Thank you, Ronnie, I appreciate
that much. Love you know that A

296
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:07.759
number six of why old Tani we'll
sign with the Dodgers. Our sushi is

297
00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:17.599
the freshest this side of Osaka,
and it's oy she delicious. When you

298
00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:22.160
say our sushi, you mean what
La County La County sushi? Because La

299
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:25.039
County sushi they didn't get a good
down there in Orange County. Right,

300
00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:32.400
Well, it's fresh and oh see, but La County is amazing, amazing

301
00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:40.319
fresh sushi. So those are the
six reasons why any side we'll sign with

302
00:24:40.319 --> 00:24:49.839
the Dodgers. I think they're valid
and again, can't wait for the reports

303
00:24:49.880 --> 00:24:56.920
from David Vasse. I mean,
going with Bray Pearsley's ranch next Tuesday Live

304
00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:02.680
with Dodger Talker is going to be
a that's wild. So looking forward to

305
00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:17.160
Brad Brad where's he going Vic his
farm doing some farming. Hold that dog

306
00:25:17.240 --> 00:25:25.960
We're coming back, baby, coming
back. Yeah, come on, come

307
00:25:26.000 --> 00:25:27.319

308
00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:33.000
it, Baby, come on,
Vic, come on, Vic, shake

309
00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:44.319
that dradle. Y'all fellas, are
you following Tiger Woods in the Bahamas?

310
00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:49.079
Uh? I have not, Vic, I have not. How's he doing?

311
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:56.599
Vic? Well? Remember yesterday had
a rough round three over seventy five.

312
00:25:56.640 --> 00:25:59.759
It was beaten up. He was
very sore and his body is stolen

313
00:25:59.799 --> 00:26:06.559
coop brating. But today he was
the bamboo he bent. He didn't break

314
00:26:06.559 --> 00:26:14.559
two under seventy for Tiger Woods today. Oh at his World Challenge. So

315
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:18.000
he's won over through thirty six holes. He's fifteenth out of the twenty golfers.

316
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:23.720
Scottie Scheffler Jordan Speith lead at nine
under it. But it's good to

317
00:26:23.720 --> 00:26:29.359
see Tiger regaining some form today that
put him overall. He's won over.

318
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:33.279
It was three over yesterday, won
today? Right? Do you want to

319
00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:40.000
say he's one over? Remember?
Yes, they kind of ran out of

320
00:26:40.039 --> 00:26:41.680
gas to last four or five holes. Was in the sand, no bit.

321
00:26:42.160 --> 00:26:48.680
I think he ended up in Aruba
on some of the holes. The

322
00:26:48.720 --> 00:26:56.000
slow bowt to Aruba. Are you
guys watching the Hottest show on television.

323
00:26:56.119 --> 00:27:03.039
What is that Golden Bachelor? The
finale was last night. Yeah, hit

324
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:12.200
me. It was god ridging.
Two ladies were left looking for love with

325
00:27:12.200 --> 00:27:18.279
with Gary, you know, the
the Bachelor from somewhere in Indiana, So

326
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:26.920
Leslie, I mean, come on, from somewhere Indiana. So there's two,

327
00:27:26.039 --> 00:27:32.720
there's two lovely women left. Of
course, these are the Golden Bachelor.

328
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:34.319
He's seventy two years old. So
all the women were you know,

329
00:27:34.359 --> 00:27:38.720
it was sixty or above. And
it was just a beautiful, beautiful season

330
00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:42.119
for you know, for me,
I usually don't watch The Bachelor, but

331
00:27:42.839 --> 00:27:47.039
I was fixated in it. Huh. Oh, I was totally vested.

332
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:56.759
So you call myself with just going
going wild my beloved bride because the search

333
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:02.559
for love is is so beautiful.
So so Leslie was one of the two

334
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:07.680
ladies left. She gets blindsided by
Gary in Costa Rica. I mean she

335
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:14.359
met and was loved by Gary's family, but then something suddenly changed and Gary

336
00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:19.519
chose Teresa out of New Jersey.
Oh, what happened? What happened?

337
00:28:19.880 --> 00:28:22.839
He said, Puerto Rico. He
met the family. They're in Costa Rica,

338
00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:29.119
Costa Rica, and something happened and
suddenly a twenty four hour span.

339
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:37.519
I mean, emotions went wild and
eventually, you know, Gary found love

340
00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:45.039
with this, you know, a
beautiful lady from New Jersey. And get

341
00:28:45.119 --> 00:28:49.799
this, the Golden Bachelor of Journey
has just begun. They're getting married,

342
00:28:49.920 --> 00:29:00.240
honeymooning in Italy. What solo meteet
when they get married? I think in

343
00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:04.720
January? Is that soon? Wow? All right, Tully seventy two?

344
00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:10.200
How long do you want to wait? I mean, come on, you

345
00:29:10.319 --> 00:29:17.200
know, maybe a few months,
get it done early. That was beautiful

346
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:34.039
Gary from Indiana, Gary from Gary. So everyone found love. So you

347
00:29:34.160 --> 00:29:41.400
found love. Last night, the
UCLA Bruins just escapes. You see Riverside,

348
00:29:41.400 --> 00:29:45.480
the Highlander is extending the home winning
streak to a nation best twenty nine.

349
00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:56.359
McK cronan out with COVID. Oh
no, Cronan got COVID, got

350
00:29:56.400 --> 00:30:03.680
some COVID. But Dylan Andrews last
I can lay up at Nelan John Wooden

351
00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:07.039
court and they escaped the uc Highlanders
from Riverside. So the ie was in

352
00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:14.240
the house. The Islanders almost pulled
it off last night. Yeah, you

353
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:18.599
know who could play. I went
to the usc UH Brown game about a

354
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.359
week and a half ago. Brown's
got a nice squad in the IVY League.

355
00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:26.279
You know, we only hear about
Princeton coming out of the IVY League

356
00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:30.440
as a basketball powerhouse. And I
gotta tell you Brown, Brown had some

357
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:41.559
players. There's no dominating team anymore. No a squad can come from any

358
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:49.039
corner of America and springing upset,
there's no doubt, which, of course

359
00:30:49.160 --> 00:31:03.440
leads us to the source. On
the on the eve of the PAC twelve

360
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:08.000
and coming to a close, of
course, the Pack twelve of the greatest

361
00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:11.720
basketball coach of all time, maybe
the greatest coach of all time in John

362
00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:18.759
Wooden, and the High crewp is
by John today, the UCLA Brewin basketball

363
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:23.039
Buddha, of course, his pyramid
of success, a virtual blueprint for life,

364
00:31:25.359 --> 00:31:33.960
his wisdom profound and eternal, the
great John Wooden, and go something

365
00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:41.480
like this, it's what you learn
after you know it all that counts.

366
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:48.519
A feeling you, John Wooden,
What you learn after you know it all

367
00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:52.759
is what counts. Talk to me, John Wooden. Big, that was

368
00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:57.759
awesome. Big, that was the
one big fear me through the weekend.

369
00:31:57.880 --> 00:32:05.240
Big. Yes, we are never
going to hear another high coup. While

370
00:32:05.279 --> 00:32:08.960
the PAC twelve is still a conference
that was the last ever high coup while

371
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:14.799
the pack twelve. You can't help
it, Jesus Smith, thank you much

372
00:32:14.839 --> 00:32:16.880

you got it. Ronnie, thank you,
