00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:07.879
And now your host for Marongo Casino
Dodgers on Tech Tam Chase, Hi,

2
00:00:07.960 --> 00:00:12.839
everybody, and a litlemen too,
Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck. Hope you're

3
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:18.359
enjoying your Monday afternoon in Los Angeles. Dodgers forty four and twenty nine on

4
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:22.519
this season, first place the top
the NL West. After taking two of

5
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:26.480
three from the Kansas City Royals over
the weekend at home, the Dodgers now

6
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:31.320
hit the road for a four game
divisional series against the Colorado Rockies. The

7
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:35.520
Big Maple James Paxson on the mound. First pitch from Denver is set for

8
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:38.880
five p forty. Between then and
now, we got a lot to get

9
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:43.560
to here on Marago Casino Dodgers on
Deck, including hearing from the manager,

10
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:47.280
Dave Roberoks. We're gonna give you
the very latest on the Dodgers injuries,

11
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:51.000
an update on Mookie Betts, an
update on Yosho Yamamoto, and what the

12
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:56.000
Dodgers' plans are now moving forward with
the lineup and the rotation because of these

13
00:00:56.039 --> 00:01:00.159
injuries to the Dodgers starters. Will
dive deeper into this pitching matchup tonight with

14
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.600
a couple of Canadians. Hey getting
the start on the Mount. David Vatti

15
00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:06.920
State will go one on one with
Jerry Harriston Junior from Sports in at LA.

16
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:10.200
Shortly we'll check in with Kirsten Watson, who is on the field there

17
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:11.799
in Denver. In just a few
minutes, we'll head out to the Gaalpin

18
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:17.200
Motors broadcast booth and here from Rick
Monday and Tim denvertt Well. Yesterday at

19
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:23.000
the Ravine, Tyler Glasnow was absolutely
filthy. Seven shutout innings. He scattered

20
00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.400
three hits along the way while striking
out ninety through eighty five pitches. He

21
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:30.439
was very efficient, sixty two pitches
for strikes. He got it done on

22
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.879
the mound with the Dodgers top of
the line that provided the offense show.

23
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:38.879
Hey Otani broke up in a scoreless
game of the third with a bomb.

24
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:44.400
So Otani, who has been expanding
the strike zone. Yeah, and that's

25
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:47.239
a bad pitch to be swinging in
snow. We're close to striking. Account

26
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:51.400
was in favor two oh two to
one has hit hard deep the center fit.

27
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:56.239
It's back in his gon A home
run show. Hell Tony with his

28
00:01:56.400 --> 00:02:00.640
eighteenth home run and the Dodgers on
the board. That is one to nothing

29
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:06.799
four hundred and fifty one feet from
Showe O'tani that a solo shot the third

30
00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:10.120
Dodgers a one nothing lead in the
sixth they would make it to nothing.

31
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:15.960
Showy Otani wasting no time. First
pitch, he saw a home run four

32
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:19.479
hundred feet, his nineteenth of the
season, his second of the game.

33
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:23.080
As the Dodgers had a two to
nothing lead. Again Tyler Glass now was

34
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:25.599
cruising, so a two to nothing
lead was more than perfect. But let's

35
00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:30.280
make it back to back jacks too
older Freeman and he hits a drive to

36
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.199
right field and deep. Going back
is frasier. He's at the track.

37
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:40.719
This Rue's gone back to back home
runs Otani and now Freddie Freeman. It

38
00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:46.840
is three to nothing show Hey and
Freddy back to back home runs in the

39
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:52.360
sixth inning as the Dodgers get three
solo shots from Otani and Freeman in the

40
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:55.039
game. Freeman goes two for four, now hitting three hundred on this season.

41
00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:59.599
In the month of June, he's
got an ops over eleven hundred.

42
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.800
The offense was from Otani and Friedman, while the pitch he was from Glass.

43
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:07.800
Now Daniel Hudson as scoreless eighth.
Evan Phillips came in and pitched the

44
00:03:07.919 --> 00:03:09.960
ninth with the save, his tenth
of the season. Dodgers get the three

45
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.639
to nothing win over the Royals.
They take two to three from Kansas City.

46
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:16.759
They improved a forty four and twenty
nine. They've now got an eight

47
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:21.120
game lead in the division. But
the win came at a cost, as

48
00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:24.120
the Dodgers yesterday announced that Yoshi Yamaimoto
was gonna go on the injured list with

49
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:28.960
a strained rotator croff. And then
in the seventh inning yesterday, it was

50
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:32.360
an awful scene to see Mookie Betts
get drilled into the left hand by Dan

51
00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:36.719
Altavila in ninety eight mile an hour
fastball. He came out of the game

52
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:39.919
and Mookie Betts has since been announced
as a fracture in his left hand.

53
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:44.560
More on that throughout Dodgers on Deck
as we leach you up to first pitch

54
00:03:44.639 --> 00:03:47.960
what it means for this lineup as
well tonight, though James Paxson will get

55
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:52.800
the ball in this series openers,
The Dodgers gotta play baseball, The game's

56
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:55.479
gotta move on, and with morelands
head out to the Galpin Motors Broadcast booth

57
00:03:55.520 --> 00:04:00.039
in Denver, as we welcome in
Rick Monday and Tim Nevert, guys b

58
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:02.319
ack a time. We come to
you from the corner of twentieth in Blake

59
00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:06.639
in the lower downtown section of Denver. Game one of a four game SAT,

60
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:12.639
the Dodgers and the Rockies. Rockies
start the night eighteen games behind the

61
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:16.439
Dodgers in the National League Western Division
standings twenty five and forty six. Meantime,

62
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:21.360
the Dodgers eight up on the padres
at forty four and twenty nine.

63
00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:25.639
They played each other recently at Dodgers
Stadium. The Dodgers took two out of

64
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:30.959
three, and since twenty eighteen,
the Dodgers have won seventy one of the

65
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:36.279
one hundred three games played against Colorado. Pitching matchup tonight, left handed James

66
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:41.600
Paxton at six and one goes against
cal Quantrille. Quantrills six and four,

67
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:45.720
and Quantrell's been pitching pretty well lately, but the Rockies need to find a

68
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:48.759
way to get some runs, says, they have lost eleven of their last

69
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:54.399
fifteen. The Dodgers managed to get
enough runs yesterday in a three to noth

70
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:58.000
things shut out went over Kansas City. They did, but they also lost,

71
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:00.680
and they lost big, and that
was Rooky Betts getting the fractured left

72
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:03.800
hand hit by a ninety eight mile
an hour fastball. First time this year

73
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:09.839
Mookie Bets has been hit by a
pitch, and a very costly one.

74
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:12.959
How long he's going to be out
don't know. Meanwhile, the Dodgers cannot

75
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:15.639
stand in one place and wait for
Mookie Betts. That's will be the first

76
00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:17.120
one to tell you, hey,
guys, you got to go out and

77
00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:21.199
play baseball. There's Dodger Ball Club. A difference also, tim in the

78
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:27.879
way that Dave Roberts manipulates his lineup
tonight because we had heard speculation and it

79
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.560
proves to be the fact. Show
Hey Otani will be the designated hitter and

80
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:35.199
he will lead things off into night's
bowl game. Will Smith moved up the

81
00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:39.879
number two spot and then for the
most part, everything else below that is

82
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.680
going to be regular. But there's
nothing regular about a big, big void

83
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.079
that's a short stop with the big
run producer, guy that scores, and

84
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:48.079
a guy that kind of leads the
band every time that you go out on

85
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.680
the field, that being Mookie Betts. That the Dodgers have to figure out

86
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:54.800
way well let's put the best foot
forward, the best foot that they have

87
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:58.279
available. When you look at a
player like Bets, he was perhaps the

88
00:05:58.399 --> 00:06:02.240
leading candidate at this point to see
in Fornational League most valuable Player. Again,

89
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:06.519
it's a good situation in one way
where he does not need surgery,

90
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:11.439
so he will be back at some
point in time. Saw him on the

91
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:14.240
way out of the ballpark yesterday,
asked him how his hand felt, and

92
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:18.480
he said that it's not as painful
as it was when it happened, obviously,

93
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:21.680
but that he was figuring four to
six weeks at that point in time,

94
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:25.600
so he should be back and back
for the stretch run, and that's

95
00:06:25.639 --> 00:06:28.480
the hope for the Dodgers. Another
big loss too, at least for the

96
00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.879
time being, is Yoshinubu Yamamoto.
Where it was yesterday after the ball game

97
00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:35.279
we learned that he has a strained
rotator. Come yeah, and that didn't

98
00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:40.199
really come well. It comes as
a surprise, but there was something brewing

99
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:45.040
ahead of time because earlier in the
week we saw him Yamamoto throwing on flat

100
00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:48.399
ground in left field and the general
manager was there watching. You had two

101
00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:53.920
pitching coaches were there watching, a
couple of trainers were watching. Eight total

102
00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:58.319
were watching Yamamoto. It was supposedly
just a throwing session, but that was

103
00:06:58.399 --> 00:07:00.560
kind of an alert. Says,
hey, there may be something going on.

104
00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:02.399
That's a big, big loss,
no question about it. After this

105
00:07:02.519 --> 00:07:08.600
Dodger ball Club, they're calling up
some people and Miguel Vargas gets called up

106
00:07:08.639 --> 00:07:12.040
with the absence now to Mookie Betts. Vargas will be on the bench at

107
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:15.319
the outset at tonight's Bowl game Dodgers
and Rockies, Game one of a four

108
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:19.000

we're close to striking. Account was
in favor. Two two one has hit

139
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:46.120
Watson. Hey. Kirston now joins
us from the field in Denver at Coors

140
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.240
Field before the Dodgers and Rockies and
Dave Roberts spoke to the media just a

141
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:56.000
little while ago. Kirston and the
latest on Mookie Betts and the timetable is

142
00:09:56.559 --> 00:10:01.240
Yeah. So, as we learned
last night, dealing with that fracture in

143
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:03.840
his left hand and after being hit
by a ninety eight miles pour pitch,

144
00:10:03.960 --> 00:10:09.000
so he saw him go down in
excruciating pain. He knew it wasn't good,

145
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:11.919
kind of just on site obvious with
the x raysment confirmed as I mentioned,

146
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:16.159
a fractures. So Dave said,
today, you know, Lukey went

147
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:18.120
and saw the doctor to kind of
go over what's next day, So he

148
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:22.320
didn't have that update on that,
just specific, but it's looking like a

149
00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.960
six to eight week timeline. And
he even added, you know what they're

150
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:30.000
kind of comparing it to is you
remember a couple of years ago with Corey

151
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:33.679
Seeger essentially a similar situation, got
hit by a page on his hand,

152
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:39.320
was down for about two and a
half three months, So they're kind of

153
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:41.320
looking at it as a similar pacing
to that. But as of right now,

154
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:45.279
we're hearing it's at six to eight
weeks. Obviously different guys, they

155
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:50.120
healed differently, and Corey did have
a couple of setbacks just with making sure

156
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:54.960
his hand was fully healed, so
hopefully Luky won't have those same setbacks.

157
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:58.960
So they're hoping that that six to
eight week timeline can be at such what

158
00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:03.200
about yoshin Noblemo and this rotation is
I mean the injuries in general, how

159
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:07.320
has it affected this team in a
lineup? Yeah, So with Yoshiovu,

160
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:13.480
as we've heard that he's now dealing
with the rotator cuff injury. So Dave

161
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:16.679
said that they're going to shut him
down completely. So for two weeks he's

162
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:20.559
going to be completely shut down and
then they're going to reaffect into meeks decide

163
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:22.000
if you can pick back up a
ball and kind of move forward from that.

164
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:26.279
It is going to take some time
for him to heal. Dave did

165
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:30.000
say last night that it's not a
season ending injury, so I think that's

166
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:35.399
the most important thing. He's added
thatly sooke to Yoshi Nobu this this morning.

167
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.919
He's just said that, you know, he definitely was a little frustrated

168
00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:43.799
and just disappointed with the injury,
but you know he's going to put in

169
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:46.000
the words to come back healthy and
even stronger. And then what's as you

170
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:50.919
mentioned, just it does obviously have
impact rotation. The good news Bobby Miller

171
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:54.519
is back. We'll have to start
on Wednesday, and then of course Peyton

172
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:58.279
Kershaw going to start his rehab assignment
this week and he's working his way back,

173
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:01.240
so that's a good thing in regard
to our with the top of the

174
00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:03.879
order in the lineup with no Mookie, that means who's batting leadoff. They

175
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:07.240
decided that Show here Tani is going
to be that guy, and they've actually

176
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:11.039
broken up him and Freddie Freeman at
the moment putting Will Smith in the middle.

177
00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:16.480
Is that he definitely likes that against
righty's, there's a possibility against lefties

178
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.240
in which maybe he's deck the two
lefties, so show Hey and Freddie back

179
00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:26.639
to back and then the two righty's
and Will and pay Oscar. So that

180
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:30.559
could be the case, or you
could run with just the three that we

181
00:12:30.679 --> 00:12:33.720
see today with show Hey, Will
and Freddie. So he said he'll kind

182
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.919
of he'll decide when that time comes, but for right now, this is

183
00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:41.480
what it's going to look like.
So yeah, So the the new top

184
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:43.799
three, and the good thing is
is they've been the top four all year,

185
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:48.080
but no Mookie. It's now going
to be the three of these guys,

186
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.600
and they're going to do whatever they
can to step up and to you

187
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:52.559
know, to play for him.
That's what a lot of the guys have

188
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.480
been saying. It's frustrating, it's
bad, but they're going to do what

189
00:12:56.559 --> 00:12:58.840
they can to keep going and make
sure that the team does not kind of

190
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:03.279
up without him. Next man up, Dodgers gotta keep playing. They'll start

191
00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:05.960
a four game series in Denver.

206
00:14:11.440 --> 00:14:15.159
the IL with the fractured at hand, Yoshidoba Yamamoto going to the IEL at

207
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.039
the strained rotator recuff. Michael Grove
yesterday went on the IL at the sore

208
00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:22.639
lat muscle. He expects to be
on the IEL just for a brief time

209
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:26.039
fifteen days. Max Munsey's still on
the IL at the oblique injury. Ryan

210
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:28.559
Brazier on the IEL at the right
calf strain. Bobby Miller scept to come

211
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:33.000
off the IEL. That's some positive
news for the injury front. On Wednesday,

212
00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:35.120
and make the start in Denver.
Kyle Hurt progressing, working his way

213
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:39.519
back, hopefoot to the Dodgers bullpen
soon. Let's head back out to Denver

214
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:45.279
and let's get it much anticipated update
from the Dodger skipper. Anything else questions

215
00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:48.799
for Dave Dave? Can you just
describe Dave? Can you talk about the

216
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:54.720
pressure in the dugouts with Dave Roberts. Dave, just first with Mookie.

217
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.000
Has he had a chance to speak
with the doctor, and have you received

218
00:14:58.039 --> 00:15:03.200
any updates just as to how he's
today. I haven't today. I think

219
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:09.559
the plan is he's just gonna get
fitted for a splint and there's going to

220
00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:15.279
be you know, a couple of
weeks of inactivity with that hand. It

221
00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:20.000
is my assumption, and you know, just kind of get the healing process

222
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:24.159
back, but try to do everything
he can to keep his body in shape.

223
00:15:24.919 --> 00:15:28.080
So it's still I mean it's going
to be you know, six to

224
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:33.320
eight weeks something like that. Looking
at what this now means, not only

225
00:15:33.360 --> 00:15:35.879
for the team at the top of
the order. Today you broke up show

226
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.879
Hey and Freddy and Show Hey batting
lead off. Is this something you are

227
00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:41.399
planning to do moving for I know
you had talked about it with facing a

228
00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:43.799
lefty, but now without Mookie.
Do you like how this looks at the

229
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:48.120
top of the order right now?
I do? I do. I also

230
00:15:48.559 --> 00:15:58.600
like, you know, on the
road right hand or today having will get

231
00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:03.320
there. I mean as far as
to get warm and the picture up home

232
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:07.440
as it should be easy as well, So I think verse the right hander,

233
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:11.679
I like this against the left hander. I'll probably think through it,

234
00:16:11.840 --> 00:16:17.320
but I this feels right versus both. Right now, all right, there's

235
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:19.159

I accept everybody for who they are. This is Dodger insider David Bassi.

250
00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:33.039
All Right, DV Sports Talk Radio
wants to debate what's the bigger loss

251
00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:37.440
Mookie or Yamamoto. In my opinion, they're both used losses for this Dodgers

252
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:41.240
team. But let's start with Mookie
Betts and what this means for the lineup.

253
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:44.640
What this means for like really the
heartbeat of this offense and Mookie not

254
00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:48.119
being there well number one, I
would argue that the Mookie Bets injury is

255
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:52.839
a bigger loss than Yamamoto, considering
the Dodgers have a wealth of pitching that

256
00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:57.839
is still very healthy and more on
the way. Bobby Miller going to pitch

257
00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:03.279
on Wednesday at corse Field, So
for now, the rotation is in very

258
00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:07.240
good shape. They can ill afford
to lose Tyler Glass now. And to

259
00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:11.599
me, I even said this over
the weekend before the Yamamoto injury. Their

260
00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:18.279
biggest challenge is a to keep Glass
now healthy and b keep his stuff as

261
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:22.640
good as it's been the first three
months of the season. That good in

262
00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:26.960
October. But you know, I
think shoe A Otani reflected the feeling in

263
00:18:27.039 --> 00:18:33.119
that clubhouse after the game yesterday when
he said to Japanese reporters, Mookie Betts

264
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:38.319
is an indispensable player, and he's
right. How many Dodgers can move from

265
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:44.319
right field to second base to shortstop
and have an MVP season. Nobody.

266
00:18:44.759 --> 00:18:48.039
So for now, the Dodgers will
rely on Otani to lead off and Miguel

267
00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:53.240
Rojas to play shortstop. The good
news is tim that Muki Bets should return

268
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:59.519
by mid August, and it reminds
me a little bit of the Corey Seeger

269
00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:03.160
break his risk to back in twenty
twenty one. It took him about sixty

270
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:07.680
five games to come back. It
was a little bit longer than what the

271
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:11.519
Dodgers expected, so I don't expect
it to take sixty five days for Mooki

272
00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:15.400
to return. David is driven by
the Ford f series, America's best selling

273
00:19:15.400 --> 00:19:19.640
trump for forty seven years in counting
Ford gives you freedom of choice gas hybrid

274

electric head to your Southern California Ford
dealers and find yours Ford F series built

275
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:30.480
tough. All right, we know
that they got Rojas and Keik to fill

276
00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:33.319
the voided shortstop. Miguel Vargas gets
called up, he'll be playing some left

277
00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:37.359
field with Chris Taylor. But TV, what about trades? I mean,

278
00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:40.880
the trade deadline's coming up in what
five six weeks? Can the Dodgers maybe

279
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:42.960
make a deal to help fill some
of these voids? Well, I do

280
00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:47.599
believe they are looking at some deals, but right now, tim, it's

281
00:19:47.680 --> 00:19:52.000
a difficult trade market. There are
a lot more buyers than sellers at this

282
00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:59.039
point in time because of the expanded
playoffs and teams that even are hovering around

283
00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:03.440
five hundreds still within striking distance of
the last wildcard spot in each league.

284
00:20:03.880 --> 00:20:08.160
And I do disagree with those that
believe the Dodgers are going to feel pressure

285
00:20:08.759 --> 00:20:14.319
or panic to make a move now
because of the Mooki injury, with them

286
00:20:14.440 --> 00:20:18.480
knowing that it's not going to require
surgery and that it's just going to take

287
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:22.440
time for it to heal. I
don't believe the Dodgers are going to force

288
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:26.440
a trade for a short stop if
they believe the price is too high,

289
00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:30.559
and if they were to make a
trade for a short stop that was with

290
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:34.759
or without Mooki Bets being in the
lineup, because already they were looking to

291
00:20:34.839 --> 00:20:40.440
see if there was a better option
there to move Mooki back to second base.

292
00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:45.279
So I disagree with the notion the
Dodgers now are in panic mode to

293
00:20:45.400 --> 00:20:48.359
make a trade for a short stop, especially with Mooki being able to come

294
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:52.440
back in mid August. Real quick, Dave Clayton Kershaw, what's the latest

295
00:20:52.480 --> 00:20:56.319
with him as far as throwing?
Is it sim game first and then a

296
00:20:56.519 --> 00:21:00.079
reminor league rehab on Wednesday? What's
the latest? Yeah, he's on his

297
00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:04.400
way to a rehab assignment, Tim, And you could just picture spring training

298
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:08.720
right, picture it as a Cactus
League game, because that's the closest thing

299
00:21:08.960 --> 00:21:12.880
Kershaw can have to that. So
he's at the beginning of spring training,

300
00:21:12.960 --> 00:21:17.559
on the eve of, let's say, his first spring training start. That's

301
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:21.839
where he's at in his recovery.
And if all goes well, six weeks

302
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:26.319
from now, six starts from now, the Dodgers will evaluate where he's at.

303
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:30.440
He'll evaluate where he's at, and
scouts have told me Tim, if

304
00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:33.559
the fastball velocity doesn't go up,
he's going to have to come up with

305
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.960
a change up because there's not enough
differential between the fastball and his slider.

306
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:41.720
Something to keep an eye on,
for sure, David appreciate it. We'll

307
00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:42.839
check back in with you just a
little bit. Coming up here on Wrongo

go back to September twenty fifth, twenty

316
00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:38.799
sixteen, Dodgers playing host of the
Colorado Rockies. The Dodgers clinched the NL

317
00:22:38.920 --> 00:22:44.839
West on what would be Vin Scully's
final home game outop of the tent,

318
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:51.319
tied at three, Boom Logan,
the lefty set and the pitch to Culverson.

319
00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:56.880
There's a fly ball the left field. Did they do it? Charlie

320
00:22:56.119 --> 00:23:04.000
Culberson a'll walk up home run.
The Dodgers win the West for the fourth

321
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:11.799
consecutive year, but this win is
for Finn and Charlie Colberson is a man

322
00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:17.599
who's done it. Charlie Colberson with
the walk off home run, Charlie Steiner

323
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:22.319
on the call. Vin Scully's final
home game at Dodgers Stadium September twenty fifth,

will always remember seeing Charlie Colberson jump

325
00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:32.160
in the air, throw off the
helmet rounding third base, being mobbed at

326
00:23:32.200 --> 00:23:34.799

Scully tipping his cap in his final home

00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:37.640
by David Massey. Here's LA Dodgers
broadcaster and World Series champion Dodger Rick Monday.

340
00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:42.400
Well, if you were listening to
the Dodgers radio broadcast yesterday, you

341
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:48.000
got the inclination things were not going
to go Mookie bets way when you heard

342
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:51.519
Rick Monday say I've been there,
I felt that and I've seen that.

343
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:55.519
Rick. Hey, you had the
uh, the intuition to know it was

344
00:24:55.599 --> 00:24:59.039
not going to be good. For
Mookie Betts, no, because first of

345
00:24:59.079 --> 00:25:00.680
all, it was the first time
this year that Mookie Bets has been hit

346
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:06.960
by a pitch. But unfortunately,
I had been there and I've experienced it,

347
00:25:07.079 --> 00:25:10.880
and I recognized the intense pain that
mooky Bets was going through at that

348
00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:15.960
particular moment instantly, and that was
never good. So a fractured left hand

349
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:19.559
and they're losing more than just a
teammate. I mean, here's a guy

350
00:25:19.599 --> 00:25:22.559
that has pulled the weight they've asked
him. Look, at first, it

351
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:26.119
was going to be at second base. Well, that didn't work out with

352
00:25:26.200 --> 00:25:30.160
Gavin Lux It's shortstop. So in
spring trending they move mooky Bets to shortstop.

353
00:25:30.680 --> 00:25:33.000
That's worked out exceptionally well. And
for Mooki hitting at three h four,

354
00:25:33.559 --> 00:25:37.880
ten home runs, he's knocked in
forty. He scored fifty runs on

355
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:41.519
base percentage, the best in baseball
at four oh five. It's more than

356
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:45.920
just losing a shortstop, and it's
more than just losing a name that everybody

357
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:49.039
recognizes. It's losing one of the
best players in Major League Baseball. That

358
00:25:49.240 --> 00:25:55.039
being said, it's time that the
Dodgers basically circle the wagons and understand that

359
00:25:55.160 --> 00:25:57.160
everybody else has to do a little
bit more. They don't have to carry

360
00:25:57.200 --> 00:26:02.599
the entire load upon their own shoulders, but everyone needs to contribute a little

361
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:07.079
bit more and find different ways to
win ballgames. And Dave Roberts is going

362
00:26:07.160 --> 00:26:10.200
to start that with trying to find
a different way with his lineup tonight.

363
00:26:10.759 --> 00:26:15.440
That moves O'tani into the leadoff spot. Will Smith moves up to the number

364
00:26:15.519 --> 00:26:18.319
two position as he does the catching. Then it's going to be Freeman Tiascar

365
00:26:18.400 --> 00:26:22.319
Hernandez, and then it's going to
be kind of normal as far as what

366
00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:26.279
the doctors have at this particular time. But the top of the order is

367
00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:30.079
going to be a much different look
right now. What do you like about

368
00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:33.960
Otani being the leadoff hitter, Rick, How can he help kind of lessen

369
00:26:34.039 --> 00:26:37.960
the impact of losing a player like
Mookie Bets at the top of your order.

370
00:26:38.880 --> 00:26:44.680
I would hope that it's going to
put more emphasis on making more consistent

371
00:26:44.839 --> 00:26:48.480
contact. Oh, he can hit
the ball five hundred feet and he's done

372
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:52.240
that. I think maybe at the
top of the order, maybe the emphasis

373
00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:53.880
is a little bit more. As
the Diners are trying to win their forty

374
00:26:53.920 --> 00:26:57.039
fifth game of the season, maybe
making a little bit more consistent contact.

375
00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:02.599
Does Dodger bum club, David.
As you know, they've they've had a

376
00:27:02.720 --> 00:27:07.680
good run against the Rockies the last
three years, winning twenty three and losing

377
00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:10.480
just twelve. Well that's in the
last three years. This is a whole

378
00:27:10.559 --> 00:27:15.119
new situation now, and you just
wonder also from an emotional standpoint, I

379
00:27:15.160 --> 00:27:21.319
mean, the game was played yesterday. We saw Dave Roberts really react to

380
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:25.519
one of the trainers coming up and
telling him during the eighth inning. Don't

381
00:27:25.559 --> 00:27:30.920
know exactly what was said to him, but knowing Dave Roberts, his reaction

382
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:33.279
was one that we knew at that
particular time. It was not good news

383
00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:37.920
with Mookie Betts. And from that
point on, just looking at the Dodger

384
00:27:37.000 --> 00:27:41.759
dougout, it was very sullen.
The question is how quickly can these guys

385
00:27:41.839 --> 00:27:45.160
kind of regroup and realize that they
have one of their big warriors that's not

386
00:27:45.319 --> 00:27:48.359
going to be here and now it's
on their shoulders in order to carry the

387
00:27:48.400 --> 00:27:52.880
wagon. Yeah show hey. O
Tani was quoted after the game as telling

388
00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:59.880
Japanese reporters Mookie Betts was an indispensable
player. But as you know, Rick,

389
00:28:00.039 --> 00:28:02.839
it doesn't just take one guy.
I thought you said it perfectly.

390
00:28:03.359 --> 00:28:07.720
It's going to take everybody to pick
up the production and keep this offense going.

391
00:28:07.599 --> 00:28:11.559
Yeah, exactly. So you know
it's without Mooki Bence right now the

392
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:18.359
thing that gets lost. Also,
it's Yoshinobu Yamamoto also on the injured list.

393
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.599
If we go back even more,
you know, Max Muncy is looking

394
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:23.720
at something today. You know,
the last game that he played was on

395
00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:26.920
the fifteenth of May. That was
at San Francisco, and he's not even

396
00:28:26.960 --> 00:28:30.119
throwing the baseball right now, So
you're looking at the absence of Monsie on

397
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:33.000
top of it. For how long
a period of time we don't know.

398
00:28:33.079 --> 00:28:37.000
It's already been a month with the
oblique issue, and how much longer is

399
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:40.720
it going to be. I would
think it's going to be a considerable period

400
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:45.480
of time since a he is taking
ground balls at third base, he is

401
00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:48.799
running a little bit, but he's
not throwing nor is he swinging the bat.

402
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:52.559
All right, Rick, the good
news is the Dodgers still have Rick

403
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:56.920
Monday playing every day in the broadcast. Well at least, well, David,

404
00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:00.000
here's the good news too, is
it again? I listened to you

405
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:03.880
the other night on the postgame Dodger
Talk, I felt like I needed to

406
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:07.039
run to the stadium in a hurry
and give you a helmet because it was

407
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:11.839
kind of a vicious crowd was calling
in. Hopefully have a nice little uh

408
00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:18.519
well, almost a relaxing postgame Dodger
Talk tonight. That's always contingent on wins

409
00:29:18.839 --> 00:29:22.720
and losses, Rick, as you
know even don't we know that? Yeah,

410
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:26.039
don't we know that? Thank you, Bell. We'll check in with

411

c CHLA dot org. David and

426
00:30:34.119 --> 00:30:38.839
now what will likely be vast a
fielding insults from a Dodger player, It's

427
00:30:38.839 --> 00:30:44.720
an engagement of endearment. This is
high end tight well. It was big

428
00:30:44.839 --> 00:30:51.000
news yesterday, unfortunately disappointing news that
Mookie Beds has a fractured left wrist.

429
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:56.160
And as it was happening live,
Jerry Harriston Jr. Was on Sports and

430
00:30:56.200 --> 00:31:00.960
at LA reacting to that news and
also the news that the Dodgers have lost

431
00:31:00.079 --> 00:31:07.200
Yoshi Yamamoto for the foreseeable futures.
So Jerry Harriston Junior joins us right now

432
00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:11.279
from Sports net LA. Former Major
League veteran world champion, Jerry, thanks

433
00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:15.960
a lot for the time. Appreciate
it anytime, David, anytime. So,

434
00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:21.079
as you were watching all this unfold
yesterday late in the game, when

435
00:31:21.119 --> 00:31:26.200
you see that ninety eight fastball hit
Mookie Bets, are you thinking immediately this

436
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:30.079
is probably a fracture in that left
wrist. I knew it was going to

437
00:31:30.119 --> 00:31:33.440
be a fracture now, I just
didn't know where it was going to be

438
00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:40.319
located. Immediately you think it is
a fracture, and then immediately I think

439
00:31:40.720 --> 00:31:45.200
does it require surgery? Thankfully,
it does not require surgery. That means

440
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:51.519
is a clean break, and he
should be back a lot quicker than obviously

441
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:55.799
if it required surgery. So you
know, hopefully, you know that type

442
00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:57.319
of injury, will be back six
weeks, eight weeks, I don't know,

443
00:31:57.559 --> 00:32:01.920
just depending on the bone healing,
and Mookie's young guy, healthy guy.

444
00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:06.799
Hopefully the heals a lot faster.
So obviously it's crushing news, but

445
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:10.039
it's not a season ending injury,
and I like to look at things from

446
00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:14.480
the bright side. You know,
he's going to be fresh come August,

447
00:32:14.519 --> 00:32:17.200
September, October, so when we
get to the postseason, we're going to

448
00:32:17.240 --> 00:32:21.680
get a fresh Mookie bets. Yeah, so it's right where the wrist and

449
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:25.039
the hand come together. Jerry,
it kind of reminds me of when Corey

450
00:32:25.160 --> 00:32:30.240
Seeger had his broken left wrist.
Do you feel like that's kind of the

451
00:32:30.759 --> 00:32:36.920
best comparison in recent Dodger history.
I would say, so. I had

452
00:32:37.000 --> 00:32:42.880
broke my wrists in that area before
your boy Danny Harron got me years ago

453
00:32:44.279 --> 00:32:50.599
before he was throwing throwing eighty eight. But you know, I was able

454
00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:53.279
to come back and actually had a
really good second half of the season.

455
00:32:53.440 --> 00:32:59.759
So Mookie Becks is a whole lot
better player than than I was. So

456
00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:02.720
hopefully, you know, he heals
quicker and be ready to go. So

457
00:33:02.960 --> 00:33:07.640
again, the most important thing is
no surgery. Anytime you have surgery in

458
00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:10.839
your risk area, your your hand
area, you're in danger with because there's

459
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:15.880
so many different ligaments tissue. It's
so sensitive, you know. So you

460
00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:20.119
know, fortunately there's no surgery.
Let it heal and be ready to go

461
00:33:20.359 --> 00:33:23.599
in a couple of months. Jerry
Harriston Jr. Is joining us from sports

462
00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:29.240
Net A La Jerry. The Dodgers
seem to be going with sho Hey Otani

463
00:33:29.400 --> 00:33:34.440
as their leadoff hitter against right handed
pitchers, and Miguel Rojas is going to

464
00:33:34.519 --> 00:33:38.599
take over shortstop for the foreseeable future. How do you like the way that

465
00:33:38.799 --> 00:33:44.039
lines up? Well? Listen,
obviously, in the best case scenario,

466
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:47.119
you want Mookie healthy. But if
we're gonna have guys come in and fill

467
00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:51.880
in as a leadoff hitter, Choey
Oltani is a pretty good Constellation prize.

468
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:55.440
You know, so Showy has done
it before, Obviously he's used to it.

469
00:33:57.079 --> 00:34:00.319
He's a guy that can really change
the game with one wing the bat

470
00:34:00.400 --> 00:34:02.680
and can do it the very first
pitch of the game. So Showy can

471
00:34:02.759 --> 00:34:08.440
handle leading off for the foreseeable future. I think more importantly, it gives

472
00:34:08.519 --> 00:34:13.679
guys like Miguil Rojas an opportunity to
play who's played extremely well. Keith are

473
00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:16.400
Nandez will get a chance to play
as well, and CT three. There's

474
00:34:16.440 --> 00:34:21.960
a reason why you have depth on
this team and on this roster. You

475
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:23.639
know you're gonna have at some point, you're gonna have injuries pop up.

476
00:34:23.679 --> 00:34:27.079
That's just the nature of the game. You know, the game is played

477
00:34:27.079 --> 00:34:29.679
at a high level. It's a
fast paced game. You're gonna have some

478
00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:32.639
injuries. That's why you have guys
that are performing at a high level that

479
00:34:32.719 --> 00:34:37.239
can come off the bench. Hopefully
these guys take this opportunity, like Keith

480
00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:42.639
Aaron Naniz and CT three Miguel Rojas, seze this opportunity and play well.

481
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:47.039
Jared, do you feel like this
changes anything as far as urgency for the

482
00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:52.800
Dodgers to acquire a short stop at
the trade deadline? I don't think so.

483
00:34:52.039 --> 00:34:57.199
I think that the Dodgers have always
been great at seeing what they need

484
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.800
and if there's a difference maker,
whether it's a whether it's an outfielder,

485
00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:05.000
whether it's on the pitching side,
they're gonna make the move. So I

486
00:35:05.079 --> 00:35:08.480
don't think it changes anything because if
there was a difference maker that can help

487
00:35:08.519 --> 00:35:12.559
them win when we're fully healthy,
they're going to make that move. The

488
00:35:12.639 --> 00:35:16.199
good thing about it is you know
you don't have to rush and make a

489
00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:21.639
sudden change because you already have guys
in house that can handle the positions.

490
00:35:21.719 --> 00:35:25.599
Nigel Ross is as good as good
as anybody playing the defensive position at short

491
00:35:25.679 --> 00:35:30.320
sum so Kiki aar Nannis could play
at elite level at short and so can

492
00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:35.079
set three. So you have guys
in house that can help you at that

493
00:35:35.760 --> 00:35:37.679
part of the game. All right, Jerry, That's why we called you.

494
00:35:37.880 --> 00:35:42.480
We know that you would bring the
positive light to all this. Not

495
00:35:42.719 --> 00:35:45.400
ideal, but the good news is, like you said, Mookie should return

496
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:49.400
in early August. Thanks a lot

in twenty sixteen by way of Canada,

513
00:37:01.519 --> 00:37:06.239
where he is from sixth season in
the Big Leagues, first with the Rockies,

514
00:37:06.480 --> 00:37:09.360
making his fifteen start this year last
time out six shutout innings, three

515
00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:14.000
hits, five strikeouts in a win
over the Minnesota Twins. He primarily throws

516
00:37:14.079 --> 00:37:16.719
a sinker, a split finger,
and a cutter. The split finger is

517
00:37:16.880 --> 00:37:22.280
nasty. Opponents are batting just one
forty five off the splitter. In twenty

518
00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:25.440
twenty four against the Dodgers, five
career appearances, four starts, he's one

519
00:37:25.519 --> 00:37:29.920
in four with a seven eighty nine
r ray. He's lost all four of

520
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:32.960
his starts, the lone win coming
in relief at Dodgers Stadium back in August.

521

with the Dodgers, making his thirteen start

524
00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:47.760
last time out against the Texas Rangers. He tossed six innings. He allowed

525
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:51.440
just one run on two hits while
striking out two to get the win.

526
00:37:51.800 --> 00:37:54.440
He has faced the Rockies six times
in his career. He's one in three

an earned run, four hits and
struck out eight in a no decision.

530

let's head back out to the booth Rick

540
00:38:58.000 --> 00:39:01.079
Monday, Tim never guess we're getting
a set for the first pitch here in

541
00:39:01.239 --> 00:39:06.760
Denver, James Paxton at six and
one takes on Cal Quantrill at six and

542
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:09.639
four. The Rockies starter Moll has
been very good over his last eight starts.

543
00:39:09.679 --> 00:39:13.519
He didn't have a great start to
the season, but over his last

544
00:39:13.599 --> 00:39:16.480
eight he has turned in a six
and one record with a one ninety one

545
00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:20.239
earned run average. Yeah, he's
turned it around. The first six starts

546
00:39:20.239 --> 00:39:22.000
he was zero three in an era
of almost five and a half. The

547
00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:27.639
other thing Quantrille has done exceptionally well
when he's been in a bind runners in

548
00:39:27.679 --> 00:39:31.559
scoring position is just a one seventy
six batting average against hims. Dodgers have

549
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:36.599
to figure him out. Meanwhile,
for Paxton getting the start and trying to

550
00:39:36.599 --> 00:39:39.480
pick up his seventh victory of the
season. And for Paxton, he has

551
00:39:39.519 --> 00:39:44.079
been very good the first couple of
times through the lineup, and then we'll

552
00:39:44.079 --> 00:39:46.280
see about that third time. Hopefully
he's still in there by the third time

553
00:39:46.360 --> 00:39:50.119
through the lineup. Big night for
Paxton, and he got to win against

554
00:39:50.159 --> 00:39:54.440
Texas last Tuesday, allowing just one
run over six innings pitched. And for

555
00:39:54.519 --> 00:39:59.000
the Dodger hitters, looking at Quantrell, they're going to be looking for that

556
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:02.159
splitter. He's got a very good
split finger pitch. Good splitter, moves

557
00:40:02.199 --> 00:40:06.360
the bolt inside. Dodgers want to
get to the bullpen. Why well,

558
00:40:06.440 --> 00:40:09.719
the last thirteen games, the Rockies
bullpen has an e ray of almost nine.

559
00:40:10.440 --> 00:40:15.480
So the Dodgers, at forty four
and twenty nine, eight games up

560
00:40:15.559 --> 00:40:17.679
in the National League Western Division,
take on the Rockies, the last place

561
00:40:17.800 --> 00:40:23.039
team twenty five and forty six for
Colorado. They are eighteen games off the

562
00:40:23.159 --> 00:40:28.000
pace. Lineups and first pitch coming
up? Tip, All right, first

563
00:40:28.039 --> 00:40:30.239
pitch, will we come back?
Remember Mookie Bets on the injured list with

564
00:40:30.360 --> 00:40:35.239
the fracture in his left hand.
Joey Otani will bat lead off as the

565
00:40:35.280 --> 00:40:39.000
designated hitter. Miguel Rojas is playing
short stop. David Vestide's got You covered
