WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:05.559
Holidays. Yeah, we're getting closer. Rodney p Fred Rogan on a tremendous

2
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:10.880
sprint today on a Monday, love
it, love the season, baby.

3
00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:15.240
Come on, all right, Rodney, let's bring on the newest member of

4
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:18.399
the Dodgers, Tyler Glass. Now
and Tyler, thanks for jumping on.

5
00:00:19.079 --> 00:00:21.079
Yeah, thanks for having me on. I appreciate it. All right,

6
00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:25.679
let's start with this. If my
research is correct, your dad played water

7
00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:28.559
pole. Well, your mom was
a gymnast, your brother was a decatholice,

8
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:32.399
so whatever happened to you? Yeah, I don't know. I chose

9
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:35.159
baseball for some reasons. I did
all the sports and stuff growing up,

10
00:00:35.759 --> 00:00:38.840
and then first I was just good
at baseball and it seemed to have like

11
00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:42.240
a more of a like a good
trajectory out of high school, like more

12
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:44.880
opportunities and stuff. And it was
just one of the games I like fell

13
00:00:44.920 --> 00:00:48.840
in love with and becad like madly
obsessed with. So it ended up working

14
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:51.799
out. So, you know,
coming out of high school, you were

15
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:55.039
going to go to the University of
Portland, but the Pirates drafted you and

16
00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:58.359
you just jumped on it, I
think for six hundred grand Why did you

17
00:00:58.399 --> 00:01:02.399
make the move right out of high
school. So it was something I thought

18
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:04.280
about for a while, and it
was like I kept going back and forth,

19
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:08.840
and I had committed to University of
Portland like pretty early on, and

20
00:01:08.879 --> 00:01:12.799
I remember talking to like UCLA and
some other teams, but I wasn't super

21
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:15.760
great. I guess when I committed, and it was just Portland was like

22
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.799
a D one school and they gave
me a good scholarship and I chose to

23
00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:23.040
do that. In my senior year, I started throwing all hard and I

24
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.640
did pretty good. And I think
I was just sitting in the car one

25
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:27.719
day after I got drafted, and
it kind of just came to me,

26
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:30.599
like if I go play pro ball, they'd give me money and I don't

27
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.879
have to do homework. It was
just like do that. I don't want

28
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:38.359
to have to go do school anymore. And it was just like all right,

29
00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:41.319
cool. I called and then I
called it a Monday, and I

30
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:45.760
flew down on a Wednesday and then
started my career. That's incredible. So

31
00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:49.560
when you were in Santa Clarito,
where was your favorite to drive through restaurant

32
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:51.840
you'd go to. What would you
do hanging out there in high school?

33
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:56.000
Oh? Man, it was probably
honestly, probably like your standard like in

34
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:57.640
and out and stuff. We'd always
go there before and after football games.

35
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:01.920
And then I I liked like the
Del Taco was always pretty good, which

36
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:06.519
I didn't know wasn't like a national
food chain, so it was once I

37
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:09.000
left, it was kind of Oh, I forgot like Del Taco's out here

38
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:12.120
anymore. But I think as I
got into prololl and stuff too, I

39
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.240
stopped like eating fast food and everything. But curse the fur the most part.

40
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.840
Uh, probably those two, I
guess. All right. So,

41
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:21.759
oh, by the way, were
you like a stud in high school?

42
00:02:21.759 --> 00:02:23.800
Did everybody know you? Were you
the man? Not? Really? I

43
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:27.560
was like good in Little League and
stuff, and then I became like the

44
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.800
bootiest mess of a person you've ever
seen. Ida size like fifteen shoe and

45
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:35.039
I was like five eight, So
I just looked like like a baby giraffe.

46
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:38.000
That was my nickname was baby Diraffe. So I just was like an

47
00:02:38.080 --> 00:02:42.120
absolute goober. I like would bounce
when I walked, and I like finally

48
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:45.560
kind of grew into myself when I
was a senior and I started throwing all

49
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:49.000
hard and I was always athletic,
I just couldn't keep my limbs under me,

50
00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:50.879
and then I figured it out my
senior year, and I think some

51
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:53.280
scouts were like, all right,
we can get them early, and then

52
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:57.319
uh yeah, and then the rest
is now, did you really have size

53
00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:01.000
fifteen feet when you were Yeah,
I was, Yeah, that was a

54
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:04.919
weird looking dude. Yeah, it
was. It was strange like as I

55
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:07.759
was younger too, Like my shoe
grew the same as my age. It

56
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:09.919
was like eleven to eleven, twelve, twelve, thirty thirteen, and then

57
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:14.599
like it just somehow my foot got
huge and I didn't grow at all.

58
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:16.199
And then my freshman year, I
was like five eight, five nine,

59
00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:19.599
and then my junior year, I
was like six six. So I just

60
00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:22.199
got like it was a lot of
growing, you know, in a short

61
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:25.000
amount of time. But then yeah, I figured it out. So I'm

62
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:30.120
glad. I would say, Tyler
glasnow is our guest. Okay, So

63
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:35.560
you could have been a free agent
after this upcoming year, but you decided

64
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:38.439
that you would hook up here with
the Dodgers. Why did you make the

65
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:42.479
decision you did. Why didn't you
just go out into the market and see

66
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:45.960
what happens. Yeah, I think
the Dodgers was on the short list.

67
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:47.639
Of teams that I wanted to go
to. And I guess it was never

68
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:51.400
really about like making as much as
I possibly could. I think it was

69
00:03:51.479 --> 00:03:53.080
just as long as like I could
go somewherehere I knew I would be happy

70
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:57.159
on and off the field. It
would be good. Like I don't really

71
00:03:57.199 --> 00:03:59.439
like spend a ton of money.
I guess, like I like to go

72
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:02.000
on like big and stuff. But
as long as I could like make enough

73
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.360
to do the things I like and
like, you know, just have like

74
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:08.639
a fun time, I didn't.
I didn't really worry about it, So

75
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:12.240
it wasn't I was never really said
I'm trying to like make as much as

76
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:15.159
I could. I just think I
saw the opportunity to play her team I've

77
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:17.680
always wanted to play with, and
they were very aggressive and like trying to

78
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:19.680
trade for me, and I mean, and it meant a lot to me,

79
00:04:19.720 --> 00:04:24.079
Like they wanted to they wanted me
on their team really bad, and

80
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:28.879
and so I felt like an extension
was perfect and it's it's worked out really

81
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:30.639
great, all right, So how
how do you figure this out? How

82
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:33.680
do you learn about it? You're
sitting at home or you're sitting wherever,

83
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:38.639
and you got a call that says
the Dodgers are interested in trading for you.

84
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:44.240
Talk about how all of this happened. Yeah, it was. So

85
00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:46.720
I kept like kind of seeing my
agent was keeping me involved and everything like

86
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:49.240
that. And then like for the
most part, I don't like look online

87
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:51.319
a ton, I don't have a
Twitter anything, but like a lot of

88
00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:54.839
my friends and family will be like, these are the rumors, you're going

89
00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:57.240
here, You're going here, You're
going here. So I would hear kind

90
00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:00.120
of third party stuff and then like
through my agent and every thing. And

91
00:05:00.639 --> 00:05:03.600
I think there was a few amount
of teams that I was interested in and

92
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:06.279
a few teams trying and trade for
me that I didn't I really didn't want

93
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:11.199
to go to. So I think
it was one of the things that meander.

94
00:05:11.199 --> 00:05:14.160
We were kind of talking a little
bit throughout the process, but it

95
00:05:14.319 --> 00:05:16.759
ended up being the Dodgers, and
that was the team that I heard about

96
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:19.759
before, and I think when they
I knew that they were like the most

97
00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:24.120
interested, and I think it was
for me. I really wanted to be

98
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:26.120
traded there, and I think the
only way that was going to happen it

99
00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:30.079
was through an extension. So I
was I was ecstatic when I finally heard

100
00:05:30.079 --> 00:05:33.480
the news and was able to be
a Dodger. So obviously you've talked to

101
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:38.480
Andrew Fried, when you've talked to
Dave Roberts. What were your impressions after

102
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:43.199
those conversations? All super positive?
They're great. Like I said, they

103
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:46.040
kind of remind me of The Raise
in a sense too, to where everyone

104
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:48.560
is like a very like high character, like a really good good person,

105
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:50.720
and then I know the game well. And I think that's kind of a

106
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:55.199
priority for Andrew and the Dodgers,
like get a really good it's very like

107
00:05:55.800 --> 00:05:59.000
important to create a good culture,
and I was used to that with The

108
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:01.680
Raise. And I know Andrew and
Erica are really good friends and there's a

109
00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:04.319
lot of similarities between them. But
I talked to them both, and I

110
00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:09.680
talked to Dave Roberts, and I'm
just excited to go work with them,

111
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.519
and they both seem like such good
people and they're all very knowledgeable about what

112
00:06:12.519 --> 00:06:15.720
they do and just two big baseball
guys. You know, Is that hard

113
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:19.800
to leave Tampa? Yeah, it's
pittter sweet. I think I've been there

114
00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:24.959
for so long and it's not really
standard for people to go there and stay

115
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:28.160
there very long. Generally like you
kind of go and get traded out after

116
00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:30.240
a few years, and I was
fortunate enough to stay there and kind of

117
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:33.079
make it my home and I have
a house there and I got to know

118
00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:36.360
like the community and a lot of
people around the area. So it's definitely

119
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:41.120
sad to go. But I'd been
traded once before and it has gone really

120
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:44.439
well and I enjoy like kind of
going all around and playing baseball. So

121
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:47.879
I'm just excited I get to go
play for my hometown team. And your

122
00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:51.240
hometown team. That means your folks
can watch you, your friends can watch

123
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:56.120
you. Does that mean something to
you, Yeah, for sure. I

124
00:06:56.160 --> 00:06:59.120
think it was everyone's stream growing up, like every when you play baseball with

125
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:01.439
like, could you imagine playing for
the Dodgers. It was always so it

126
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:04.319
was just crazy, and I would
always watch games and just like want to

127
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:06.800
be in the dugout so bad and
play for the team. And I think

128
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:10.639
once it became a real opportunity,
it was like, Wow, I got

129
00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:13.160
to do this, but it is
It's great. I got a lot of

130
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:15.519
people. I had like three hundred
text messages from friends and family and everything,

131
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:19.480
and everyone's just sending me good wishes
and stuff. So I am.

132
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:23.800
I'm really excited for them to be
able to watch me play for the Dodgers.

133
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:27.079
Tyler Glass now is our guest,
all right, so let's just talk

134
00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:29.920
about there have been periods of your
career you've been dinged up. Is that

135
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:35.199
fair to say? Yeah? Definitely? Okay, what has that been like

136
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:40.160
for you? Because initially when your
name popped up first, everybody knows you

137
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:43.199
can pitch and you can probably be
one of the cornerstones of the rotation.

138
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.480
So we'll put that in this pile. But there was talk really seems to

139
00:07:46.519 --> 00:07:50.079
get hurt. Can you talk about
some of the injuries you've had? Yeah,

140
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:54.160
So, I think it was before
twenty nineteen, I'd never really been

141
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:57.720
injured like I'd never I take good
care of myself and I've had a lot

142
00:07:57.720 --> 00:08:00.160
of really good coaches and a lot
of good trainers throughout the minor league where

143
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:01.560
I got to get to the point
where, like, I understand my body

144
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:05.399
enough to stay healthy. And then
in twenty nineteen, I was pitching against

145
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:09.839
the Yankees, I think yeah,
and then I felt the pop in my

146
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:13.720
elbow and we went and got an
MRI. And in the MRI for the

147
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:18.319
most part, showed the health of
the ligament being relatively good, so I

148
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.199
was like, all right, I
guess I'm fine, but I just had

149
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.360
this excruciating pain in my elbow.
So it was in nineteen I didn't feel

150
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:26.800
very good. In twenty and then
twenty one I also got hurt. But

151
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:30.759
for the majority of the time I
missed. For like ninety percent of the

152
00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:33.440
time I've missed, it was the
same exact injury in my elbow. And

153
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:37.879
then over time they kept mriing it. Nothing really changed on the MRIs,

154
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:39.600
but we ended up just being like, all right, we got to go

155
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:43.960
in for surgery because I can't.
It was just excruciating for three years.

156
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.440
It took me a really long time
to warm up and something just didn't feel

157
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:50.279
right, and after about eighty or
so innings every year, it just couldn't

158
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:52.639
do it anymore, like it would
give out. And so they went in

159
00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:54.799
and they found out that the ligament
health looks fine on the MRI because the

160
00:08:56.399 --> 00:08:58.679
attachment was off the bone so you
couldn't pick it up on the MRI.

161
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:05.120
But all like my UCL was just
like not on my elbow. So it

162
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:07.200
was like one of those things where
it was like, Wow, this has

163
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:09.960
been like this for three years,
and I think I'd give it time to

164
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:13.399
heal and it would almost like scar
tissue or callous over and then after a

165
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.159
certain amount of like torque and load
on it, it would just give out.

166
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:18.879
So for a while there, I
thought that I was going to have

167
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:22.039
to just play with that for the
rest of my career. But I ended

168
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:26.039
up getting Tommy John and it was
just incredibly like a night and day difference,

169
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:28.799
Like honestly from when I woke up
from surgery, like even being in

170
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:31.080
pain, being like, yeah,
that's that's way better. So it's been

171
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:33.919
two years now and I've been able
to throw and I feel completely back and

172
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:37.480
normal. So I think a lot
of like those major injuries are behind me.

173
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:41.519
So I'm looking forward to the future
of like being healthy. You know,

174
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:46.200
first, thank you for your honesty
there. I don't think the average

175
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:50.840
person when you say you were in
pain really understands what that means. Can

176
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.720
you put it into words what kind
of pain it was? It was?

177
00:09:54.960 --> 00:10:00.039
It was like making stabbing and magging
like all at the same time. I

178
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:03.360
think you you develop a routine over
time as a baseball player to like you

179
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:05.240
always are going to deal with something
so like you have to just like play

180
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:09.440
through pain or discomfort. And it
was one of those things where I was

181
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:11.480
still able to go out and throw
hard, so it was like there's no

182
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:15.360
I'm not going to go get surgery, Like I'm just going to play through

183
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:16.559
the pain. Like if I'm still
out here throwing a hundred, there's no

184
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:20.080
need to go in there and change
it. I never had a I was

185
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:24.080
in the bullpen the year prior.
I didn't have like a huge sample size

186
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:26.960
of innings, and I think getting
it, like going through surgery at that

187
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:30.120
point would have been bad for my
career and everything. So I think I

188
00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:33.919
kind of just had to kind of
like grip my teeth a little bit and

189
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:37.840
just pitch through it. But it
was it was just a really weird feeling.

190
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:39.799
It was always one of those things
you wake up. It's the first

191
00:10:39.840 --> 00:10:41.000
thing you think about, and it's
just it's always in your head, like

192
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:43.519
how am I going to get through
this? And it was cool. It

193
00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:46.600
was in a weird way. Like
the positive lining was I learned to develop

194
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.600
a routine to like even with that
ligament. The way it was like I

195
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:54.559
got into this, I had this
like hour long routine to get it all

196
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:56.399
ready, and like, I learned
a lot about what I can do to

197
00:10:56.519 --> 00:11:00.720
like turn on other parts of my
muscles or like I'm not parts of my

198
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:03.159
body to like not put so much
stress on that part of my elbow.

199
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:07.000
So I gained some knowledge from it. It definitely was painful, but I

200
00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:09.440
think now looking back, it's like, all right, it's sticks now and

201
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.679
it's not a big deal. But
it definitely at the time was pretty painful

202
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:18.399
and pretty stressful, but it ended
up working out, so it's all good,

203
00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.639
all right, pain free. In
your conversations with Andrew and Dave,

204
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:24.720
did they indicate where you'll be in
the rotation or you just want to go

205
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:28.440
out there and they'll figure it out
when you get there. I think figure

206
00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:31.759
out when I get there. Yeah, I've never really talked about it anyway.

207
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:33.440
I've never even too like earlier with
the rays or anything. People always

208
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.600
talk about like if you're opening day
or if you're like one to five.

209
00:11:35.639 --> 00:11:37.879
I've always like, well, I
didn't matter you don't you know what I

210
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:39.960
mean? You got to throw the
same amount of starts all year long.

211
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:43.720
So it's not something that's like super
important to me. I just want to

212
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:46.559
be able to go out and make
all my starts pitch well, and I

213
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:48.679
just want to win. So all
right, a couple more quick ones here,

214
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:54.159
We'll let you go the tattoos old
dirty bastard on your soul right foot.

215
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:58.639
But it's faint. Why did you
put that there? Because there was

216
00:11:58.639 --> 00:12:01.559
something like growing up like rap and
all that, So it was just like

217
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:05.919
a huge part of my like child
and I guess and it was just I

218
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:09.519
think too being in that area for
some reason, like old New York hip

219
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:11.799
hop and stuff was very big,
and just rap in general was big.

220
00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:15.879
There were so many. It was
just like I always remember being with my

221
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.440
friends and listening to music, and
it was just kind of like I think,

222
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:20.000
for a lot of people's music is
very nostalgic. And when I think

223
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:24.000
back, when I hear any like
U Tank songs or ODB or anything like

224
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:26.600
that, it like brings me back
to, like you know what I mean,

225
00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:28.320
when you're in high school or when
you're in middle school, and it's

226
00:12:28.360 --> 00:12:31.919
just it's like a very nostalgic thing. So I think all the tattoos I

227
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:35.399
do have are like nostalgic things that
remind me of like my my like upbringing.

228
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:37.879
I guess. And I'm just a
huge fan of ODB. I love

229
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.159
the way because voice sounds and how
he rapped, and it just it was

230
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:43.039
like a no brainer. I was
living in New York at the time,

231
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:46.879
and I was like, let's do
it. It's just an easy decision for

232
00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:52.399
me. Did it hurt Not really? Not really. It was like the

233
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.120
bottom of your foot, it's like
pretty pretty relaxed, like skin down there.

234
00:12:56.159 --> 00:12:58.679
A lot of it's like dead,
So I didn't I didn't really feel

235
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:01.720
it. It wasn't too bad,
all right, Well, how about the

236
00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:05.039
no juice on the inside of your
lip? Did that hurt that surprisingly?

237
00:13:05.159 --> 00:13:07.399
No? Not really. It's kind
of weird like that didn't hurt that bad

238
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:09.320
either, I guess too. If
you like pinch the inside of your lip

239
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:13.480
and feel it, it's it's like
there's not a lot of nerve endings there.

240
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.080
So that was another one. I
just kind of like do it,

241
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:18.519
why not? And a lot of
my tattoos too, aren't like out in

242
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:20.960
the open. It's kind of like
in the little hidden spots, and it's

243
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.919
kind for me, And it was
just like a funny idea, and a

244
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:26.519
lot of my tattoos kind of like
probably just more like funny than anything.

245
00:13:26.559 --> 00:13:31.000
I don't really I just take myself
too seriously, So it just it made

246
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:33.200
a lot of sense. But it's
again, it's like, that's another nostalgic

247
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:35.840
one. I can proball. A
lot of guys love Little Boosie, and

248
00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:37.080
it was just one of those things. When I think back I look at

249
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:39.399
it, I'm like, oh,
it reminds me of all those cool,

250
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:43.960
like grindy minor league games. Uh. How many tattoos do you have,

251
00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:52.240
Tyler? I have one, two, three, four? All right,

252
00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:56.039
well we know too. What are
the other two? The other one is

253
00:13:56.039 --> 00:13:58.399
a baby Dirafte on my foot because
that was my nickname in high school because

254
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:01.320
I was just like a in my
early in pro ball, I just like

255
00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:05.240
couldn't walk right. But I have
a baby giraffe. And then I have

256
00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:09.759
like a little a little islandy thing
because I like to travel and go different

257
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.639
places and stuff. So they're all
like little like nostalgia things. They like

258
00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:16.080
when I look at them, they
like, take me to my happy place,

259
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:18.759
you know, kind of one of
those. But they're all relatively hidden,

260
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.960
and yeah, I just I just
get them randomly throughout the years.

261
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:26.960
I guess, Well, listen,
welcome home. Dodgers are thrilled to have

262
00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:30.840
you a fancier or excited to see
and thanks for doing this today. Yeah,

263
00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:31.639
absolutely, I appreciate it. Man, this is fun.
