11
00:00:37.520 --> 00:00:41.359
<v Speaker 2>then into Clippers pregame Clippers with a big game tonight.

12
00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:44.960
<v Speaker 2>As the season winds down in the NBA, the Dodgers

13
00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:48.200
<v Speaker 2>winded down their first East Coast road trip of this

14
00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:52.960
<v Speaker 2>season with a much needed win against the Washington Nationals.

15
00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:56.960
<v Speaker 2>After dropping two of three in Philadelphia base running airs,

16
00:00:57.159 --> 00:01:01.479
<v Speaker 2>defensive blunders, lot of walk by Dodger starting pitchers, the

17
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:04.959
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers go to Washington, d C And drop the first

18
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:07.840
<v Speaker 2>two games of the series to the Washington Nationals, who

19
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:10.200
<v Speaker 2>are not supposed to be very good, but quite frankly

20
00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:14.400
<v Speaker 2>looked pretty good in this series. They got cj. Abrams,

21
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:17.799
<v Speaker 2>who's a young, great, good looking player. James Wood is

22
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:22.560
<v Speaker 2>a stud base hitter or a hitter and left fielder.

23
00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:25.319
<v Speaker 2>He git a couple of home runs in this series.

24
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:28.040
<v Speaker 2>They got a former Dodger prospect, caber Ruiz. It's a

25
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:32.159
<v Speaker 2>good young nucleus they have put together in the Washington

26
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:34.519
<v Speaker 2>Nationals and they took it to the Dodgers the first

27
00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:38.799
<v Speaker 2>two games. And today they battled back against the Dodgers.

28
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Landon Nack, who has spotted a four to nothing lead.

29
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 2>The first four batters jumped on Jake Rwin in this game.

30
00:01:46.760 --> 00:01:50.319
<v Speaker 2>Jake Griffin gave up four runs to the first four batters,

31
00:01:50.959 --> 00:01:54.120
<v Speaker 2>including a taoscar Herronendez two run home run and a

32
00:01:54.159 --> 00:01:58.359
<v Speaker 2>Tommy Edmund two run triple. Landon Knack proceeded to come

33
00:01:58.359 --> 00:02:01.599
<v Speaker 2>out and give up a home run to the first

34
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:05.000
<v Speaker 2>battery face CJ Abrams in the bottom half of the

35
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:08.800
<v Speaker 2>first inning and had a forty one pitch first inning,

36
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:13.879
<v Speaker 2>three ball counts to four straight batters. He walked three

37
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:18.360
<v Speaker 2>batters in the inning, and he gave up three runs

38
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:21.520
<v Speaker 2>in the bottom of the first bottom of the second

39
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:23.599
<v Speaker 2>came out had a one to two to three inning

40
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:26.800
<v Speaker 2>thirteen pitches, got guys to swing and miss, got some

41
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:30.800
<v Speaker 2>hitters to chase. The third inning though with two outs

42
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 2>give up or with one out gave up a single,

43
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:37.840
<v Speaker 2>then a double, and next thing you know, it's a

44
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:42.919
<v Speaker 2>five to four Nationals lead. After the Alex Colsack fly

45
00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:46.360
<v Speaker 2>that was given up from Jack Dryer, who came on

46
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:49.520
<v Speaker 2>in relief, Land and Nack went two and a third innings.

47
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:52.120
<v Speaker 2>He gets up the five runs on four hits. Those

48
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:56.120
<v Speaker 2>runners on base accounted to Land and Neck five runs,

49
00:02:56.159 --> 00:03:00.400
<v Speaker 2>four hits, four walks, sixty nine pitches, and the Dodgers

50
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:02.759
<v Speaker 2>were down five to four, and then going up against

51
00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:06.199
<v Speaker 2>a really good right hander in Jake Irvin, who after

52
00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:11.360
<v Speaker 2>the first four hitters allowing to score, retired eighteen of

53
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.120
<v Speaker 2>the next twenty one batters that he faced, only three

54
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:17.759
<v Speaker 2>total base runners after the first four of the game.

55
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:21.479
<v Speaker 2>He would go six innings, four runs, four hit, seven strikeouts,

56
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:26.120
<v Speaker 2>three walks, and when he left the game after six innings,

57
00:03:26.199 --> 00:03:28.280
<v Speaker 2>it was then that the Dodgers able to get to

58
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:32.599
<v Speaker 2>Edward O Salazar, the Nationals reliever, a one out home

59
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:35.759
<v Speaker 2>run from Andy Pajez on an O two pitch and

60
00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:39.919
<v Speaker 2>then with two outs two to one Teoscar Hernandez an

61
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:43.800
<v Speaker 2>RBI single and the Dodgers regained the leads six to five.

62
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:46.879
<v Speaker 2>And the Dodgers bullpen. What can you say about the

63
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers bullpen that already hasn't been said. They have helped

64
00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:54.159
<v Speaker 2>carry this team to ten wins. The starting pitching has

65
00:03:54.199 --> 00:04:00.159
<v Speaker 2>been okay and at times not okay for the Dodgers.

66
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:04.599
<v Speaker 2>Injuries have hit them already. Blake Snell going with the

67
00:04:04.639 --> 00:04:07.800
<v Speaker 2>bullpen game today, in essence, that's why Landing Neck got

68
00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 2>the start and it didn't an essence turned into a

69
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:14.439
<v Speaker 2>bullpen game with six different relievers coming in after Landon Nack,

70
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:19.319
<v Speaker 2>Jack Dryer, Anthony Bonda, Kirby Yates, Tanner, Scott Alex Vesia,

71
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Blake Trining. They combined for six and two third shutout innings,

72
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:28.120
<v Speaker 2>seven punchouts. They kept the Nationals off the board, kept

73
00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:31.720
<v Speaker 2>them at five runs, kept the Dodgers in the game

74
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:35.680
<v Speaker 2>down five to four in the fourth, the fifth, the sixth,

75
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:38.959
<v Speaker 2>and then finally when Jake Irvin left the game able

76
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.439
<v Speaker 2>to get to that Nationals bullpen and take the lead

77
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 2>with two runs in the seventh and then go out

78
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:46.199
<v Speaker 2>in the bottom of the seventh, and it was huge

79
00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:48.079
<v Speaker 2>by Tanner Scott to have a one to two three

80
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:51.879
<v Speaker 2>in two including a compair of strikeouts Alex Vessia again

81
00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:54.920
<v Speaker 2>one run, Dodger lead six to five. He gives up

82
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:57.800
<v Speaker 2>a one run, a one out walk, and able to

83
00:04:57.839 --> 00:05:00.639
<v Speaker 2>get out of it without giving up a run. Blake

84
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:03.360
<v Speaker 2>tried into the ninth inning, had runners on first and second,

85
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:06.240
<v Speaker 2>one out, a great defensive play from Keithy a Hernandez,

86
00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:09.120
<v Speaker 2>a force out, a second, first and third, two outs,

87
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:11.600
<v Speaker 2>and he gets Woods to ground out to end the game.

88
00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:13.399
<v Speaker 2>Ball game over and the Dodgers get a six to

89
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:18.199
<v Speaker 2>five win. The Dodgers' bullpen continues to be one of

90
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:20.360
<v Speaker 2>the best in baseball here and pick up right where

91
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:24.480
<v Speaker 2>they left off in the postseason last year. A lot

92
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:29.639
<v Speaker 2>of the same guys, young arms like Jack Dryer, Ben Casparius,

93
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.439
<v Speaker 2>the veterans they brought in, Yates and Tanner Scott, the

94
00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:35.439
<v Speaker 2>guys who have been in the bullpen that we've gotten

95
00:05:35.480 --> 00:05:39.040
<v Speaker 2>to know, the Alex Vesias, the Blake Trinings, all doing

96
00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:42.800
<v Speaker 2>their part. They all put up zeros today and kept

97
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:46.040
<v Speaker 2>the Nationals at five runs, so the Dodgers offense can

98
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:50.279
<v Speaker 2>eventually wake up now. A glaring issue on this road

99
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:55.120
<v Speaker 2>trip is the amount of strikeouts the Dodgers gathered in

100
00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:58.040
<v Speaker 2>a six game East Coast road trip. Three in Philadelphia,

101
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:03.480
<v Speaker 2>three in Washington, DC. The Dodgers struck out a combined

102
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:13.120
<v Speaker 2>sixty times sixty combined strikeouts by Dodger batters in the

103
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:18.160
<v Speaker 2>six games on this road trip, way too many. Dave

104
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:22.399
<v Speaker 2>Roberts alluded to it in the pregame today before this

105
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:26.800
<v Speaker 2>finale against the Washington Nationals, that they faced two Cy

106
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:30.439
<v Speaker 2>Young Award winners already and the first home stand of

107
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:34.360
<v Speaker 2>the year, that they have to be better. He said,

108
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:37.160
<v Speaker 2>I just don't think fifteen strikeouts with our ball clip

109
00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:40.279
<v Speaker 2>should happen. We faced schoob Ble, we faced Sale, and

110
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:43.160
<v Speaker 2>we didn't punch out fifteen times. Well, they punched out

111
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:47.959
<v Speaker 2>fifteen times yesterday and they were on their way to

112
00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:52.879
<v Speaker 2>that again. But they only struck out ten times against

113
00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:55.360
<v Speaker 2>the Nationals in the finale of this three game series.

114
00:06:55.839 --> 00:07:00.720
<v Speaker 2>Too many strikeouts by Dodger hitters in this game. Now,

115
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:04.560
<v Speaker 2>I get text messages all game long, from friends, from family,

116
00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:07.519
<v Speaker 2>from people saying the bottom of the lineup is bad.

117
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:13.879
<v Speaker 2>Monsey keik Paz. All of them hitting under two hundred,

118
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:16.800
<v Speaker 2>all of them hitting under one seventy five now on

119
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.079
<v Speaker 2>the season. Pahz one swing of the bat can make

120
00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:22.360
<v Speaker 2>a difference. He did into seventh inning on an O

121
00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:25.040
<v Speaker 2>two slider that missed and hits it out of the ballpark.

122
00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:28.040
<v Speaker 2>Kei ky Hernandez has four hits on the season, all

123
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:32.439
<v Speaker 2>four home runs. The defense he has made up for

124
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:34.920
<v Speaker 2>it and played out of necessity every day because of

125
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:38.879
<v Speaker 2>the injury to Freddie Freeman. Max Munsey today zero for

126
00:07:39.079 --> 00:07:43.439
<v Speaker 2>four with three strikeouts, now hitting under one to seventy

127
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.319
<v Speaker 2>five on the straight the season, and the strikeouts in

128
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:49.319
<v Speaker 2>this series he had eight of them, he had ten.

129
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:53.000
<v Speaker 2>He had ten of the sixty strikeouts by Dodger hitters

130
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:57.639
<v Speaker 2>on this road trip? Did Max Munsey the bottom of

131
00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:01.360
<v Speaker 2>the lineup when they don't produce, they need the top

132
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:06.519
<v Speaker 2>of the lineup to overproduce. When seven eight nine aren't

133
00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:09.839
<v Speaker 2>doing anything for the Dodgers, the top of the lineup

134
00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:14.480
<v Speaker 2>has to do overtime more than they're supposed to. And

135
00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:18.439
<v Speaker 2>what do they do today? Otani, betz Edmund and tay

136
00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:25.319
<v Speaker 2>Oscar the top four hitters, seven for sixteen, a home run,

137
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:29.879
<v Speaker 2>a triple, five ribbies, and they also drew three walks

138
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:34.120
<v Speaker 2>amongst the four top hitters in the lineup, they did

139
00:08:34.159 --> 00:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>their part. The rest of the lineup outside of Pot

140
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:40.120
<v Speaker 2>has solo home run, didn't do a thing for the

141
00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:43.039
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers today. Canfordo struck out twice, Will Smith and over

142
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:45.559
<v Speaker 2>four day Max Munci oh for four to three strikeouts,

143
00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:48.519
<v Speaker 2>Kicky Hernandez Oh for three with the walk in the strikeout,

144
00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:50.720
<v Speaker 2>and Andy Pott has the one hit outside the top

145
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:53.720
<v Speaker 2>four hitters of the Dodgers lineup that well important solo

146
00:08:53.720 --> 00:08:57.399
<v Speaker 2>home run in the seventh inning. We talk about how

147
00:08:57.440 --> 00:08:59.759
<v Speaker 2>good this lineup is one through nine, and it's different

148
00:08:59.759 --> 00:09:02.240
<v Speaker 2>guys every night, and the Dodgers are so good they

149
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:04.480
<v Speaker 2>can afford to have an off night from a player

150
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:07.519
<v Speaker 2>or two and still win games. Today is one of

151
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:12.440
<v Speaker 2>those days when hitters, really, six through nine don't do

152
00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:16.320
<v Speaker 2>anything for you. Hitters, make that five through nine today

153
00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:18.879
<v Speaker 2>don't do anything outside of the one hit from Andy

154
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:22.559
<v Speaker 2>pots the home run. You better get some mass production

155
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:24.519
<v Speaker 2>from the top of the lineup, and that's exactly what

156
00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:26.840
<v Speaker 2>they did. Two for four show Hey O Tani with

157
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:29.960
<v Speaker 2>the walk, Mookie Betts one for four at a walk,

158
00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:32.960
<v Speaker 2>Tommy Edmund two for three with the triple two ribbies,

159
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:36.639
<v Speaker 2>and a walk, and tai Oscar Hernandez two for five,

160
00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:40.080
<v Speaker 2>the home run and the three ribbies the Dodgers top

161
00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:42.559
<v Speaker 2>of the lineup carrying them today, the bullpen keeping them

162
00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:46.039
<v Speaker 2>in the game today against the Washington Nationals, and a

163
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:50.039
<v Speaker 2>much needed six to five win over the Washington Nationals.

164
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:52.679
<v Speaker 2>For this Dodgers team, it would have been a deflating

165
00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:56.399
<v Speaker 2>five hour flight home to have lost this game and

166
00:09:56.440 --> 00:09:59.639
<v Speaker 2>gone one in five on your initial road trip of

167
00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:05.159
<v Speaker 2>the seas and lost three straight to the Washington Nationals.

168
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:09.039
<v Speaker 2>As it is, you leave Washington, DC on a winning note,

169
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:12.559
<v Speaker 2>with some positivity in the air, with a good feeling

170
00:10:12.879 --> 00:10:15.320
<v Speaker 2>having come from behind with two runs in the seventh,

171
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:18.399
<v Speaker 2>the defense playing the way they did, the bullpen being

172
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:21.759
<v Speaker 2>lights out today. You can feel good about yourself for

173
00:10:21.799 --> 00:10:23.960
<v Speaker 2>the next forty eight hours until they play again on

174
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Friday night to start the homestand against the Chicago Cubs.

175
00:10:27.440 --> 00:10:29.200
<v Speaker 2>It would have been a long forty eight hours, a

176
00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:32.320
<v Speaker 2>lot of angry Dodger players at home tomorrow on their

177
00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:35.720
<v Speaker 2>off day thinking about a one to five road trip. Instead,

178
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:38.440
<v Speaker 2>two and four feels a lot better. You come home,

179
00:10:38.799 --> 00:10:41.200
<v Speaker 2>you get the win, and now you get ready for

180
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:44.960
<v Speaker 2>the Cubs. Followed by a three game series against the

181
00:10:45.080 --> 00:10:47.799
<v Speaker 2>Colorado Rockies eight six six nine eight seven two five

182
00:10:47.840 --> 00:10:50.279
<v Speaker 2>to seventy. Let's start things off. Jose Moti will join

183
00:10:50.360 --> 00:10:52.960
<v Speaker 2>us in just a little bit. Let's go to David

184
00:10:53.000 --> 00:10:55.559
<v Speaker 2>and Westlake, his first up here on Dodger Talk after

185
00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:58.240
<v Speaker 2>a six five Dodgers winning Washington. How you doing, David,

186
00:10:58.960 --> 00:10:59.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing great.

187
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:02.519
<v Speaker 3>Kens for taking my call. I got some positive and

188
00:11:02.519 --> 00:11:04.120
<v Speaker 3>I got some negative, and I got a question for

189
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:08.759
<v Speaker 3>you about pitching positive. Absolutely, kudos, kudos to the bullpen.

190
00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:13.080
<v Speaker 3>They were fantastic. H kao kao is just so clutched.

191
00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:16.200
<v Speaker 3>I love him. And of course Otani not only does

192
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:18.080
<v Speaker 3>he look like a movie star, but he hits pretty

193
00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:23.240
<v Speaker 3>well too. But but but Monsy man Monthy. I love

194
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:26.200
<v Speaker 3>Monthy so much. But you know, he had a down

195
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:29.960
<v Speaker 3>year last season, and and now he's starting off really really,

196
00:11:30.360 --> 00:11:33.200
<v Speaker 3>you know, punching out way too much. I don't know

197
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:35.440
<v Speaker 3>what's going on with him. You would think with a

198
00:11:35.440 --> 00:11:38.480
<v Speaker 3>guy like Freddie on the team, that you know, Freddie

199
00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:40.120
<v Speaker 3>could teach him how to go the other way. He

200
00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:42.440
<v Speaker 3>rarely goes the other way. He rolls over a lot

201
00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:45.320
<v Speaker 3>of bedpool all the time. I just wish that he

202
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.840
<v Speaker 3>could adjust his swing and and make a little bit

203
00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:51.440
<v Speaker 3>more contact. As far as the pitching is concerned, I'm

204
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:54.279
<v Speaker 3>just explained to me why Gonsolin and Miller.

205
00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:54.919
<v Speaker 4>Are not ready yet.

206
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:57.480
<v Speaker 3>Why did he have to go to Roblestie and knack.

207
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:00.840
<v Speaker 3>You would think that Gonsolyn would be read and Miller,

208
00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:03.279
<v Speaker 3>I heard, pitched a great game in Triple A. Why

209
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:04.840
<v Speaker 3>aren't they getting the opportunity.

210
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:08.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure why they're not getting the opportunities. I

211
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:10.279
<v Speaker 2>can tell you what you know. Bobby Miller has made

212
00:12:10.320 --> 00:12:12.200
<v Speaker 2>a couple of starts, and I appreciate the phone call, David.

213
00:12:12.519 --> 00:12:15.279
<v Speaker 2>He's made a couple of starts already in Triple A

214
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma City. In fact, his last outing was five innings.

215
00:12:19.960 --> 00:12:23.279
<v Speaker 2>He allowed three runs, including a home run, on two hits.

216
00:12:23.559 --> 00:12:26.039
<v Speaker 2>He walked six and struck out three. So wasn't a

217
00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:30.919
<v Speaker 2>great outing. Last time out against El Paso five innings again,

218
00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:34.600
<v Speaker 2>three runs, two hits, the home run, six walks. Before that,

219
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:38.279
<v Speaker 2>against sugar Land, Bobby Miller four and two thirty innings,

220
00:12:38.279 --> 00:12:41.000
<v Speaker 2>no runs, two hits and four strikeouts. So he had

221
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:42.840
<v Speaker 2>a good first start of the year against Sugarland in

222
00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:45.320
<v Speaker 2>Triple A Oklahoma City and then his second start on

223
00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:48.200
<v Speaker 2>the six so what three days ago against El Paso

224
00:12:48.279 --> 00:12:51.360
<v Speaker 2>at home. Had some control issues again, and that's been

225
00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:54.759
<v Speaker 2>the issue with Bobby Miller right especially last year. Burst

226
00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:58.440
<v Speaker 2>onto the scene in twenty three twenty four for whatever reason,

227
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:05.519
<v Speaker 2>had a setback velocity, control, walking, too many batters and

228
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:08.000
<v Speaker 2>just looking at the game blog for what he did

229
00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:12.679
<v Speaker 2>last time out on Sunday or whatever. The third was

230
00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:16.519
<v Speaker 2>a six was that was Sunday, right, Yeah, Sunday, five innings,

231
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:20.679
<v Speaker 2>six walks can't happen. Can't happen. He's got to have

232
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:23.039
<v Speaker 2>better control, and I think that's something that they're working

233
00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:25.879
<v Speaker 2>on and hoping to get some more starts underneath him

234
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:28.200
<v Speaker 2>and have him available if needed. As far as Tony

235
00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:31.840
<v Speaker 2>Gonsolin is concerned, Tony Gonsolin pitched on Thursday in a

236
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.840
<v Speaker 2>minor league rehab assignment in TRIPAA, Oklahoma City. Now he

237
00:13:35.960 --> 00:13:39.879
<v Speaker 2>didn't go very deep in that minor league game, Tony Gonsolin,

238
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:42.120
<v Speaker 2>I think he just pitched into the second inning, So

239
00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:44.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it's not that he's built up

240
00:13:44.440 --> 00:13:47.200
<v Speaker 2>yet and they want to see him go and maybe

241
00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:51.240
<v Speaker 2>back to back starts before they bring him back up.

242
00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:56.279
<v Speaker 2>I know they were pressed for starting pitching yesterday and today,

243
00:13:56.320 --> 00:13:59.600
<v Speaker 2>but he's made one start, an inning and two thirds,

244
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:03.519
<v Speaker 2>no runs, one hit, a strikeout in two walks. So yeah,

245
00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:08.000
<v Speaker 2>not necessarily built up is Tony Gonsolin. Where he's at

246
00:14:08.039 --> 00:14:10.679
<v Speaker 2>four or five innings, you know, sixty to seventy five pitches,

247
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:14.879
<v Speaker 2>maybe another start or two, and Tony Gonsolin's good to go.

248
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:17.360
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like the back issue is not an issue

249
00:14:17.440 --> 00:14:22.000
<v Speaker 2>right now. That's behind him, thankfully. But the build up

250
00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:24.399
<v Speaker 2>factor a guy who hasn't pitched in the major leagues

251
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:27.000
<v Speaker 2>in a long time because of Tommy John surgery and

252
00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:29.039
<v Speaker 2>not coming back into last year when they could have

253
00:14:29.120 --> 00:14:31.840
<v Speaker 2>used some starting pitching. No need to rush him back.

254
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:34.559
<v Speaker 2>Build him up. That's what they got, Robleski. And they've

255
00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:37.080
<v Speaker 2>got land in neck to make starts for the Dodgers. Hey,

256
00:14:37.080 --> 00:14:39.919
<v Speaker 2>look a look at landin Neck today. I get I

257
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.759
<v Speaker 2>just to me, it's frustrating because you see what he

258
00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:45.759
<v Speaker 2>can do, and you see what also happens when he

259
00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:47.559
<v Speaker 2>goes out there and throws forty one pitches in the

260
00:14:47.559 --> 00:14:50.399
<v Speaker 2>first inning, a home run, a walk, a single, and

261
00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:52.480
<v Speaker 2>a walk to the first four batters. But then he

262
00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:55.840
<v Speaker 2>comes back after a long first inning seven runs combined

263
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:58.879
<v Speaker 2>score between the Dodgers and Nationals, forty one pitches given

264
00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:00.720
<v Speaker 2>up by land in neck and he has a one

265
00:15:00.799 --> 00:15:04.320
<v Speaker 2>two three second Indian including a pair of strikeouts. So

266
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:08.080
<v Speaker 2>he can shut down when he needs to, but he

267
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:11.120
<v Speaker 2>can also just come back and unravel and have control issues.

268
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:13.440
<v Speaker 2>The control issue is a huge thing right now. And

269
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:15.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it's because it's the first two

270
00:15:15.320 --> 00:15:18.440
<v Speaker 2>weeks of the season that pitchers aren't ready yet. I

271
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:22.679
<v Speaker 2>don't know what it is, but the Dodgers have a

272
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:24.600
<v Speaker 2>lot of walks that they have given up this year.

273
00:15:24.840 --> 00:15:26.799
<v Speaker 2>I imagine what happened having looked it up right now,

274
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:28.799
<v Speaker 2>They've got to be in the top three in baseball

275
00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:32.320
<v Speaker 2>in walks given up by their pitching staff. When we

276
00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:35.440
<v Speaker 2>talk about the strikeouts the hitters have, the walks given

277
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:39.679
<v Speaker 2>up by Dodger pitchers is a lot today. Seven more

278
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:43.200
<v Speaker 2>walks given up by the Dodgers to why Washington National hitters.

279
00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:46.879
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I get it. You want to see Gonsolin black,

280
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:49.320
<v Speaker 2>You hear Bobby Miller's pitching and triple A. Why isn't

281
00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:52.039
<v Speaker 2>he back up? It looks like the control issues still

282
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:55.519
<v Speaker 2>bothering Bobby Miller, and until that's figured out, I don't

283
00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:56.879
<v Speaker 2>know if we'll see him back up at the major

284
00:15:56.960 --> 00:15:59.919
<v Speaker 2>league level unless they are really forced into having a

285
00:16:00.120 --> 00:16:02.279
<v Speaker 2>need for a starting pitcher. And I think Tony Gonslin,

286
00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:04.519
<v Speaker 2>just based on what he did in that minor league

287
00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:08.039
<v Speaker 2>rehab assignment last Thursday, I get the feeling he's probably

288
00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:10.639
<v Speaker 2>another start or two away from being built up and

289
00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:12.360
<v Speaker 2>ready to go, because the last thing you want to

290
00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:13.799
<v Speaker 2>do is bring him up and have him just be

291
00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:16.559
<v Speaker 2>able to go what three innings, forty pitches. You want

292
00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:18.279
<v Speaker 2>to build him up and be able to have him go,

293
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:20.919
<v Speaker 2>you know, into the fifth or sixth inning as a

294
00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:23.519
<v Speaker 2>starter for the Dodgers. A six, six, nine, eighty seven, two, five, seventy.

295
00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:25.200
<v Speaker 2>We'll take a break, we'll come back. We'll hear from

296
00:16:25.240 --> 00:16:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Jose Moto. We'll get to your phone calls. Busy day

297
00:16:28.039 --> 00:16:29.840
<v Speaker 2>for the Dodgers, who jumped out to a four to

298
00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:32.320

331
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:07.160
<v Speaker 2>check out with Jose.

332
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.759
<v Speaker 1>It's tough to go around the horn with hose Mos.

333
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:14.759
<v Speaker 2>All right, Jose, A lot to kind of digest from

334
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:17.119
<v Speaker 2>this game and from this road trip. I want to

335
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:20.000
<v Speaker 2>start with the bullpen and what they did today. Land

336
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:22.599
<v Speaker 2>and Neck got into trouble in the third inning, only

337
00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:25.759
<v Speaker 2>goes two and a third. Jack Dryer comes in, induces

338
00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:29.440
<v Speaker 2>a sack, Fly gets the strikeout, has a shut down

339
00:18:29.480 --> 00:18:32.880
<v Speaker 2>fourth inning despite a walk. The bullpen today, Jose six

340
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:36.759
<v Speaker 2>different relievers combined for six and two third shutout innings,

341
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:39.519
<v Speaker 2>one blue pit in the nineteen that should have been caught,

342
00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:44.079
<v Speaker 2>and seven strikeouts. They again continue to put up zeros

343
00:18:44.319 --> 00:18:46.039
<v Speaker 2>and keep the Dodgers in games.

344
00:18:46.680 --> 00:18:49.200
<v Speaker 6>Just to keep the Dodgers in game. Casey, as you mentioned,

345
00:18:49.279 --> 00:18:52.160
<v Speaker 6>to have the ability to change the game with one swing.

346
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:55.160
<v Speaker 6>I actually, I mean I would have getten to win

347
00:18:55.240 --> 00:18:59.240
<v Speaker 6>to Jack Dryer, this kid has been like a game change, yeah,

348
00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:01.319
<v Speaker 6>you know, just because he comes in and throw sometimes

349
00:19:01.319 --> 00:19:03.839
<v Speaker 6>in the fourth or fifth or sixth thing. He's an

350
00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:05.640
<v Speaker 6>out there in the limelight when you know the lights

351
00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:08.440
<v Speaker 6>are shining the Briders. But man, he put the stop

352
00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:12.440
<v Speaker 6>to the Nats on making sure that he continued to

353
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:15.319
<v Speaker 6>be momentum. You know, it's uneasy with him too, because

354
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.799
<v Speaker 6>remember he was added to the forty man rosters offseason.

355
00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:22.240
<v Speaker 6>He's twenty six years old. He's never started a game

356
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:24.759
<v Speaker 6>in the minors, and his role has been that of

357
00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:27.640
<v Speaker 6>the reliever. And he set the tone for everybody from

358
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:30.720
<v Speaker 6>there on, considering that when you lose a starter that

359
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:33.200
<v Speaker 6>early in the game. To him, it's not easy to

360
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:35.359
<v Speaker 6>line up to see where you might fit. But these

361
00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:38.680
<v Speaker 6>guys don't care. I mean, Tanner's got got in the

362
00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:41.400
<v Speaker 6>big contract. When does he come in? He comes into

363
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:44.160
<v Speaker 6>seventh thinning. Why because that's the best matchup for the

364
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:46.359
<v Speaker 6>Dodgers for a guy like that. And that's when you

365
00:19:46.359 --> 00:19:48.799
<v Speaker 6>see that a guy like Blake trying and play such

366
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:51.880
<v Speaker 6>a big role in understanding how to communicate with these guys,

367
00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:55.559
<v Speaker 6>and Josh Bart does a magnificent job. Does not get

368
00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:57.920
<v Speaker 6>enough love for what he does. And when he communicates

369
00:19:58.240 --> 00:20:01.400
<v Speaker 6>the restern very direct, he formal Casher. He understands the

370
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.240
<v Speaker 6>game very well. But it's refreshing to see the guys

371
00:20:04.279 --> 00:20:05.680
<v Speaker 6>and I'll be scared to go out there and keep

372
00:20:05.720 --> 00:20:07.880
<v Speaker 6>it back in the zone and make more quality pitches.

373
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:12.839
<v Speaker 2>Tommy Edmond and Teoscar Hernandez combined to go four for seven,

374
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:15.119
<v Speaker 2>a triple, the home run in the first inting and

375
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:17.920
<v Speaker 2>five rbi in this game. I mentioned it earlier. The

376
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:20.160
<v Speaker 2>bottom of the lineup had one hit. It was the

377
00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:22.799
<v Speaker 2>Andy Paez home run the seventh inning, and that's the

378
00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:25.799
<v Speaker 2>hitters five through nine had to combine one hit. The

379
00:20:25.799 --> 00:20:28.680
<v Speaker 2>rest of the offense. The big four had to carry

380
00:20:28.720 --> 00:20:31.079
<v Speaker 2>them today and when they needed them, they delivered. The

381
00:20:31.119 --> 00:20:33.599
<v Speaker 2>top four of the lineup seven for sixteen, a home run,

382
00:20:33.960 --> 00:20:37.480
<v Speaker 2>a triple, five RBI, three walks. They needed them and

383
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:38.200
<v Speaker 2>they delivered.

384
00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:40.680
<v Speaker 6>It seems like going through a cycle like that, right

385
00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:43.039
<v Speaker 6>Like every year is like okay, so it's Turner is

386
00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:46.279
<v Speaker 6>Turner and Mooki and Prevton and then we got a

387
00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:48.440
<v Speaker 6>tie and there's like you know what, It's okay. You

388
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:51.079
<v Speaker 6>have those guys at the top for a reason. Things

389
00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:53.680
<v Speaker 6>eventually will even up. We know that the guys in

390
00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:55.880
<v Speaker 6>the bottom need to do a better job. The one

391
00:20:55.880 --> 00:20:57.559
<v Speaker 6>thing I like about the guys in the bottom today

392
00:20:57.599 --> 00:20:59.799
<v Speaker 6>is if you see the amount of pitches they saw today,

393
00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:03.039
<v Speaker 6>which is pretty amazing, Kikisa on nineteen pitches for that, and.

394
00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:05.279
<v Speaker 5>That's just you're not trying to get a walk.

395
00:21:05.440 --> 00:21:07.160
<v Speaker 6>You try to belong that bats And I think the

396
00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:11.559
<v Speaker 6>conversation was quite firm from Dave Roberts and the coaches

397
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:14.119
<v Speaker 6>about where there were and what purchasing and how much

398
00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:16.119
<v Speaker 6>they're trying. They were not a very there's still not

399
00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:19.519
<v Speaker 6>a very good two strike hitting team, which also will improve.

400
00:21:19.640 --> 00:21:22.319
<v Speaker 6>They were so good early in that homestand here at home.

401
00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:25.640
<v Speaker 6>But the one thing too is you got to just

402
00:21:25.640 --> 00:21:27.039
<v Speaker 6>go out there and have good at bets. And to me,

403
00:21:27.079 --> 00:21:29.079
<v Speaker 6>I'll tell you what about really turned things around was

404
00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:31.559
<v Speaker 6>a walk by Tommy in the seventh inning, even though

405
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:32.279
<v Speaker 6>he did not sport.

406
00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:33.279
<v Speaker 5>But it's one of those.

407
00:21:33.119 --> 00:21:37.119
<v Speaker 6>Things that turns innings around. Like Maximarsi does what he's good,

408
00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:40.119
<v Speaker 6>he can have the ability to work account to turn

409
00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:43.839
<v Speaker 6>things around. Into path of baton and overall some improvements

410
00:21:43.880 --> 00:21:47.720
<v Speaker 6>on the offensive side, internity on the defensive side. I mean,

411
00:21:47.839 --> 00:21:50.119
<v Speaker 6>Kika the gold Glover first place is pretty amazing.

412
00:21:50.319 --> 00:21:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, eleven games at first base for Keiki Hernandez. He

413
00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:57.119
<v Speaker 2>had a huge pick that he made from a throw

414
00:21:57.200 --> 00:22:00.119
<v Speaker 2>for Mookie Betts. And then the play he made the

415
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:02.319
<v Speaker 2>ninth inning with runners on first and second and one

416
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:04.880
<v Speaker 2>out to dive and then throw the ball and get

417
00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:07.480
<v Speaker 2>the force at second base. Dave Roberts said it. You know,

418
00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:09.480
<v Speaker 2>the game should have been gone to extra innings if

419
00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:12.119
<v Speaker 2>not for that diving stop to keep the runner at third,

420
00:22:12.160 --> 00:22:14.079
<v Speaker 2>and he would stay at third on the next ball,

421
00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:16.720
<v Speaker 2>ground it out and in the game. Keik a Hernandez,

422
00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:19.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean we all marvel what he does in October

423
00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:22.640
<v Speaker 2>Jose right in not ey positions he can play, but

424
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:24.799
<v Speaker 2>now you add first base to what this guy can do.

425
00:22:24.839 --> 00:22:25.640
<v Speaker 2>It's unbelievable.

426
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:27.960
<v Speaker 6>And I think it's good to hear him talk about

427
00:22:28.079 --> 00:22:30.559
<v Speaker 6>playing first base and thinking that he's playing another corner,

428
00:22:30.559 --> 00:22:33.640
<v Speaker 6>which is third base. Instinctively, the ball comes at a

429
00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:36.400
<v Speaker 6>different angle, but the instinct is all the same. The

430
00:22:36.440 --> 00:22:37.559
<v Speaker 6>ball is going to get to you a little bit

431
00:22:37.640 --> 00:22:39.960
<v Speaker 6>quicker the bag is a little bit closer, you don't

432
00:22:39.960 --> 00:22:42.960
<v Speaker 6>have to make a long thrill. But first base nowadays

433
00:22:43.079 --> 00:22:46.039
<v Speaker 6>is not easy to play because you play so far

434
00:22:46.079 --> 00:22:48.920
<v Speaker 6>away from the bag so many times against right handed batters.

435
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:50.880
<v Speaker 6>You have such a sprint to get back to on

436
00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:53.319
<v Speaker 6>ground balls. And at the same time you got to

437
00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:56.000
<v Speaker 6>keep talking where your feet are with the balls coming from.

438
00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:57.119
<v Speaker 6>How that guy.

439
00:22:57.119 --> 00:23:00.480
<v Speaker 5>Throws the first base. Some guys throw the two with

440
00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:03.480
<v Speaker 5>great sink. Other guys throw across the day pro cutter.

441
00:23:03.559 --> 00:23:05.319
<v Speaker 5>So there's a lot to think about. But I think

442
00:23:05.400 --> 00:23:08.519
<v Speaker 5>Ki k because of his mentality and to explain it,

443
00:23:08.559 --> 00:23:12.920
<v Speaker 5>to hear him explain about before the play, plenty deep communication.

444
00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:15.799
<v Speaker 5>That's why he slows the game down in October. On

445
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:18.799
<v Speaker 5>the offensive side, that's why he's lows the game down

446
00:23:18.839 --> 00:23:22.200
<v Speaker 5>two And he's so affective because he anticipates, he envisions,

447
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:24.079
<v Speaker 5>and he knows exactly what to do with a baseball

448
00:23:24.279 --> 00:23:25.279
<v Speaker 5>at crunch time, no.

449
00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:27.160
<v Speaker 2>Doubt about it. Jose, great to catch up with you.

<v Speaker 2>gets the win and relief Blake Trina and picks up

462
00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:59.960
<v Speaker 2>the saved six different relievers combining for six and two

463
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:02.880
<v Speaker 2>third shutout. Anything's following Landon Neck, who gave him five

464
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:05.279
<v Speaker 2>runs pitching into the third inning after he was spotted

465
00:24:05.480 --> 00:24:07.720
<v Speaker 2>a for nothing in the lead. Eric and you Kaipa

466
00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:09.720
<v Speaker 2>is next up here on Dodgy Talk. Eric, welcome, How

467
00:24:09.799 --> 00:24:10.359
<v Speaker 2>you doing today?

468
00:24:11.640 --> 00:24:11.880
<v Speaker 1>Hey?

469
00:24:11.920 --> 00:24:12.359
<v Speaker 4>Feeling you?

470
00:24:12.440 --> 00:24:12.720
<v Speaker 7>Tim?

471
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:14.119
<v Speaker 8>How are you doing doing good?

472
00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:14.400
<v Speaker 4>Hey?

473
00:24:14.480 --> 00:24:14.880
<v Speaker 8>Tim?

474
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:15.960
<v Speaker 4>Hey?

475
00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:18.599
<v Speaker 8>I want to defend Max Monty. You know, we don't

476
00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:22.440
<v Speaker 8>know the kind of effect that he has in the clubhouse,

477
00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:26.160
<v Speaker 8>you know, around the guys. You know, it looked like

478
00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:29.480
<v Speaker 8>last year in the World Series. You know, he was

479
00:24:29.480 --> 00:24:32.839
<v Speaker 8>really hyping up the guys and having their backs, and uh,

480
00:24:33.119 --> 00:24:35.559
<v Speaker 8>you know, he is who he is, and he's a

481
00:24:35.599 --> 00:24:38.680
<v Speaker 8>great player, and he's gonna have his moment and you know,

482
00:24:38.759 --> 00:24:42.480
<v Speaker 8>this losing streak. Before going on this road trip, we

483
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:44.440
<v Speaker 8>went through a lot. You know, we had the all

484
00:24:44.519 --> 00:24:47.240
<v Speaker 8>the celebration going on we went to Tokyo. So I

485
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:50.039
<v Speaker 8>think these guys just need a resa and he'll come home,

486
00:24:50.359 --> 00:24:54.599
<v Speaker 8>get some sun, go to the beach, Chris Taylor, maybe

487
00:24:54.799 --> 00:24:58.599
<v Speaker 8>go catch some waves and we'll be okay. And Mookie Betts,

488
00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:01.200
<v Speaker 8>I think the the game's just a little too fast

489
00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:04.240
<v Speaker 8>for him. I believe second base is probably the best

490
00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:05.799
<v Speaker 8>position for him.

491
00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:07.640
<v Speaker 2>All right, Eric, I appreciate it. I think you bring

492
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:11.039
<v Speaker 2>up a valiant point here. The Dodgers have been on

493
00:25:11.079 --> 00:25:15.680
<v Speaker 2>the go since February and go to Tokyo, play four

494
00:25:15.720 --> 00:25:19.240
<v Speaker 2>games to exhibition to regular season games against the Cubs.

495
00:25:19.279 --> 00:25:22.079
<v Speaker 2>They fly home. They got to get their body clocks right.

496
00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:25.920
<v Speaker 2>In twenty four hours after that, they're playing three exhibition

497
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:29.799
<v Speaker 2>games against the Anaheim Angels, a brief day off before

498
00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:33.519
<v Speaker 2>the home opener against the Detroit Tigers. You got the

499
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:37.319
<v Speaker 2>ring ceremony, You've got opening weekend and all the festivities.

500
00:25:37.559 --> 00:25:40.359
<v Speaker 2>You got the trip back east of Philadelphia. You then

501
00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:42.480
<v Speaker 2>got to go to the White House and then you

502
00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:44.839
<v Speaker 2>got to go play three against the Nationals. It's been

503
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:48.559
<v Speaker 2>a world win three and a half weeks for this

504
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:55.079
<v Speaker 2>Dodgers team, from Arizona to Tokyo to LA to Philly

505
00:25:55.559 --> 00:25:58.359
<v Speaker 2>to DC and now they're gonna come home. I think

506
00:25:58.400 --> 00:26:02.480
<v Speaker 2>tomorrow is a huge day off for this Dodgers team.

507
00:26:02.519 --> 00:26:05.279
<v Speaker 2>And you're thinking it's gonna be April tenth, case, how's

508
00:26:05.279 --> 00:26:07.160
<v Speaker 2>think it's gonna be a good day off. They've hardly

509
00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:10.599
<v Speaker 2>played a lot of games. They played fourteen. Well, it's

510
00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:12.559
<v Speaker 2>been a whirlwin as I mentioned and just alluded to

511
00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:14.039
<v Speaker 2>all the cities they've been in where they've had to

512
00:26:14.039 --> 00:26:16.839
<v Speaker 2>go the last three and a half weeks, and now

513
00:26:16.880 --> 00:26:21.559
<v Speaker 2>to have the ring ceremony twenty twenty four celebration as

514
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Eric alluded to, behind them. Now they can get dialed

515
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:27.799
<v Speaker 2>in here for the rest of twenty twenty five and

516
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:30.440
<v Speaker 2>come back home to some warm weather, get some vitamin

517
00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:32.680
<v Speaker 2>D F at the sun tomorrow and they're day off

518
00:26:32.880 --> 00:26:35.200
<v Speaker 2>and get ready for a three game set over the

519
00:26:35.240 --> 00:26:38.119
<v Speaker 2>weekend for the Dodgers with Freddie Freeman Bobblehead Night. So

520
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:40.400
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a valid point there. This is a

521
00:26:40.400 --> 00:26:42.960
<v Speaker 2>Dodger team that's been on the go, go go for

522
00:26:43.000 --> 00:26:45.440
<v Speaker 2>the last three and a half weeks, and now gonna

523
00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:47.000
<v Speaker 2>have a chance to kind of just take a deep

524
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:50.519
<v Speaker 2>breath and settle for a nice six game home stand.

525
00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:52.680
<v Speaker 2>Eddie and Northridge is next up here on an five seventy.

526
00:26:52.720 --> 00:26:53.839
<v Speaker 2>Welcome Eddie. How you doing.

527
00:26:55.200 --> 00:27:00.200
<v Speaker 4>Doing pretty good? Jam. So my question is is my

528
00:27:00.319 --> 00:27:04.519
<v Speaker 4>question is in regards to the pitching, it seemed like

529
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:06.880
<v Speaker 4>a merry go round. It seemed like that funk around

530
00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:09.480
<v Speaker 4>the world, around the world, And that's kind of a

531
00:27:09.519 --> 00:27:13.039
<v Speaker 4>concern because it would be nice if if we could,

532
00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:16.079
<v Speaker 4>you know, I mean, I mean, I'm not worried about

533
00:27:16.079 --> 00:27:18.079
<v Speaker 4>the hating. I'm not worried about the bullpen.

534
00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:18.839
<v Speaker 9>But the studying.

535
00:27:19.160 --> 00:27:22.000
<v Speaker 4>You know, obviously we lost Lake Sneil for for some

536
00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:24.599
<v Speaker 4>games curse I was gonna come back in the future.

537
00:27:26.000 --> 00:27:28.160
<v Speaker 4>Glass now not sure when he's gonna come back or

538
00:27:28.599 --> 00:27:31.079
<v Speaker 4>I forgot his status. But I just want to know

539
00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:33.119
<v Speaker 4>what do you think as far as like, do you

540
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:36.640
<v Speaker 4>think the batters are intimidating our pitching and that's why

541
00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:37.680
<v Speaker 4>they're walking them so much?

542
00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:41.240
<v Speaker 9>Or or are you or are you just think it's just.

543
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:44.960
<v Speaker 4>Lack of control for command. Hang up and I'll let

544
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:45.559
<v Speaker 4>you hear your taking.

545
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I appreciate it, Daddy. I don't know if it's

546
00:27:48.000 --> 00:27:51.559
<v Speaker 2>a mechanical issue. It's not the hitters are intimidating the

547
00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Dodger pitchers. That's not the case at all. And I'll

548
00:27:54.480 --> 00:27:57.440
<v Speaker 2>use just as an example again, Land and Nack today,

549
00:27:58.359 --> 00:28:01.160
<v Speaker 2>home run, a walk, a single, walk to the first

550
00:28:01.160 --> 00:28:04.680
<v Speaker 2>four batters, those forty one pitches. Control issues in the

551
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:08.680
<v Speaker 2>first inning. Okay, the second inning, he comes back to

552
00:28:08.759 --> 00:28:12.880
<v Speaker 2>four to three game and he has a strikeout, a

553
00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:17.400
<v Speaker 2>line out, and a strikeout through thirteen pitches. What changed?

554
00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:22.440
<v Speaker 2>What did he do different between innings one and two

555
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:25.640
<v Speaker 2>on the mount and then comes back out inning three,

556
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.119
<v Speaker 2>still a four to three game, land in Neck ground

557
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:33.319
<v Speaker 2>ball to Kik at first, a walk, a single, a

558
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.000
<v Speaker 2>double by Luis Garcia Junior to tie the game in four.

559
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:39.160
<v Speaker 2>And then that's when they pulled the ripcord and brought

560
00:28:39.200 --> 00:28:42.119
<v Speaker 2>in Jack Dryer, who gave it a sack fly and

561
00:28:42.160 --> 00:28:43.960
<v Speaker 2>the run accounted to land in Neck to go ahead

562
00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:46.160
<v Speaker 2>run to make it a five to four Nationals lead. Well,

563
00:28:46.319 --> 00:28:48.519
<v Speaker 2>what changed for landon Neck? I mean if we can

564
00:28:48.519 --> 00:28:50.000
<v Speaker 2>go into his mind, if we could hear what he

565
00:28:50.039 --> 00:28:52.519
<v Speaker 2>had to say. I imagine he's just gonna talk about

566
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:55.440
<v Speaker 2>control issues and the importance of getting ahead and finishing

567
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.839
<v Speaker 2>off hitters. That's really what it is. He was getting

568
00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:02.119
<v Speaker 2>ahead first pitch strikes. That wasn't an issue. But he

569
00:29:02.160 --> 00:29:05.880
<v Speaker 2>had too many three ball counts that he had against

570
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:09.519
<v Speaker 2>the Washington Nationals today. He was you know, flann and neck.

571
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:11.160
<v Speaker 2>What did he have first pitch strikes nine of the

572
00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:15.839
<v Speaker 2>fifteen batters that he faced. Okay, so it wasn't an issue,

573
00:29:16.440 --> 00:29:19.640
<v Speaker 2>But finishing off hitters when you're head o two to

574
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:22.039
<v Speaker 2>one to two, you can't leave a ball up in

575
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:24.519
<v Speaker 2>the zone and let cj. Abrams with two strikes the

576
00:29:24.599 --> 00:29:26.359
<v Speaker 2>lead off bat of the game and you leave a

577
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:29.000
<v Speaker 2>fastball over the middle end of the plate and he

578
00:29:29.079 --> 00:29:31.480
<v Speaker 2>hits it for a home run to right field. Those

579
00:29:31.480 --> 00:29:34.400
<v Speaker 2>are mistakes you can't make. You have to waste a pitch,

580
00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:37.279
<v Speaker 2>throw it out of the zone, or make sure you

581
00:29:37.400 --> 00:29:39.480
<v Speaker 2>throw it a fastball in a position where a spot

582
00:29:39.519 --> 00:29:41.559
<v Speaker 2>he can't hit it, or get to it and hope

583
00:29:41.559 --> 00:29:45.240
<v Speaker 2>he chases. You can't miss, because they'll make you know,

584
00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:47.640
<v Speaker 2>they'll take advantage of your mistakes, and that was the

585
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:50.119
<v Speaker 2>issue today, the walks. If it were one or two

586
00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:52.920
<v Speaker 2>pitchers the Dodgers were having control issues with, you could

587
00:29:52.920 --> 00:29:55.039
<v Speaker 2>be like, all right, there's something there with those two.

588
00:29:55.440 --> 00:30:00.119
<v Speaker 2>But collectively, we're seeing just too many walks from Dodger pitchers,

589
00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:03.920
<v Speaker 2>starters and relievers. And today they're able to get around

590
00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:07.319
<v Speaker 2>those walks, especially the bullpen, who combined for three walks

591
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:10.160
<v Speaker 2>in their six and two third innings of relief. Let's

592
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:12.480
<v Speaker 2>keep going, Alan and silver Lake, thanks for being patient.

593
00:30:12.599 --> 00:30:14.720
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to Dodger Talk after a six y five Dodgers

594
00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:16.079
<v Speaker 2>win over the Nationals.

595
00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:18.480
<v Speaker 10>High tim Thanks, I'm a say on my way to

596
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:21.119
<v Speaker 10>the Clippers game. Very exciting team. They can actually win

597
00:30:21.160 --> 00:30:24.720
<v Speaker 10>the championship this year in my opinion. But this saysn't

598
00:30:24.720 --> 00:30:27.799
<v Speaker 10>Clippers talk. You know, you look at the pitching staff

599
00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:31.839
<v Speaker 10>and you're neally not worried, you know, but you look

600
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:35.599
<v Speaker 10>at Monsey and Keyka and okay, key k. There's a

601
00:30:35.640 --> 00:30:37.359
<v Speaker 10>lot of guys in the minor leagues who can field

602
00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:39.559
<v Speaker 10>the baseball. That's not what makes a major league or

603
00:30:39.599 --> 00:30:43.720
<v Speaker 10>it's can you hit? And if you really think about it,

604
00:30:43.759 --> 00:30:45.559
<v Speaker 10>you're not worried about the pitching staff. But do you

605
00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:49.880
<v Speaker 10>really think Monsey and Kyk are going to become I

606
00:30:49.920 --> 00:30:53.079
<v Speaker 10>don't know, two sixty hitters or in your bones, don't

607
00:30:53.079 --> 00:30:55.880
<v Speaker 10>you know that they're kind of not And maybe the

608
00:30:55.920 --> 00:30:59.240
<v Speaker 10>Dodgers fought the last war by making sure they have

609
00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:04.160
<v Speaker 10>the pitching, but they did not fix what they needed

610
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:05.279
<v Speaker 10>to fix about the hitting.

611
00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:08.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I'm not asking these guys to be three hundred hitters,

612
00:31:08.880 --> 00:31:11.599
<v Speaker 2>You're right, Allen. And I'm not realistically asking them to

613
00:31:11.640 --> 00:31:14.799
<v Speaker 2>be two sixty hitters. But I'm asking them to be

614
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:19.319
<v Speaker 2>better than one oh three and one seventy four and

615
00:31:19.960 --> 00:31:22.960
<v Speaker 2>to have as many strikeouts as they do. This early

616
00:31:23.039 --> 00:31:25.680
<v Speaker 2>in the season, I mentioned it. The Dodgers had sixty

617
00:31:25.799 --> 00:31:28.960
<v Speaker 2>combined strikeouts on this six game road trip, ten of

618
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:32.640
<v Speaker 2>which came from Max Munci, who was zero for four

619
00:31:32.640 --> 00:31:36.680
<v Speaker 2>to day with three strikeouts. My man, Manuel and Guardian

620
00:31:36.759 --> 00:31:37.880
<v Speaker 2>A good afternoon. Manuel.

621
00:31:39.640 --> 00:31:41.720
<v Speaker 7>Hey, we'll take that last call at the grain of salt.

622
00:31:41.799 --> 00:31:43.920
<v Speaker 9>I mean, he said the Clippers were good enough to

623
00:31:43.960 --> 00:31:47.759
<v Speaker 9>win a championship. Let's come on, man, get serious. Hey,

624
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:50.759
<v Speaker 9>but back to the Dodgers, Man, the real champs to

625
00:31:50.880 --> 00:31:52.519
<v Speaker 9>defending world champs.

626
00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:57.400
<v Speaker 7>Got to give Pies his flowers. He brought his hitting

627
00:31:57.400 --> 00:32:00.400
<v Speaker 7>shoes and left his roller skates that he played on

628
00:32:00.519 --> 00:32:04.200
<v Speaker 7>defense back in LA. So that's a good thing. Like

629
00:32:04.319 --> 00:32:07.240
<v Speaker 7>you said, it's been a marathon of a beginning of

630
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:12.480
<v Speaker 7>a season, between the Tokyo shot, between the Orange Face visit,

631
00:32:13.079 --> 00:32:16.119
<v Speaker 7>you know, just everything, man, the ring ceremony, the hanging

632
00:32:16.160 --> 00:32:19.559
<v Speaker 7>of the banner, and you always know when you're the

633
00:32:19.559 --> 00:32:23.759
<v Speaker 7>defending CHAMPI you're gonna get everybody's biggest shot. The Phillies

634
00:32:23.799 --> 00:32:27.240
<v Speaker 7>are a bona fide contender. The Gnats we're playing out

635
00:32:27.240 --> 00:32:30.759
<v Speaker 7>of their ash because they want to show out against

636
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:33.839
<v Speaker 7>the champs, so we're gonna give them a pass. You know,

637
00:32:33.920 --> 00:32:36.400
<v Speaker 7>for the most part, they'll be all right, but like

638
00:32:36.480 --> 00:32:40.480
<v Speaker 7>you said, the base on balls and the strikeouts by

639
00:32:40.480 --> 00:32:45.480
<v Speaker 7>the hitters both need to drastically get down. That's not

640
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:49.759
<v Speaker 7>gonna cut it. And lastly, they need to start playing

641
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:54.400
<v Speaker 7>crisp baseball because these last the first ten games or

642
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:58.519
<v Speaker 7>whatever it's been, they've been playing about as crisp baseball

643
00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:03.000
<v Speaker 7>as a two hour old bowl at cheerios. So I'm

644
00:33:03.000 --> 00:33:08.640
<v Speaker 7>confident that Dave Roberts will get him back in championship mode.

645
00:33:08.960 --> 00:33:11.119
<v Speaker 7>And you know, Friedman is going to be making moves

646
00:33:11.640 --> 00:33:14.400
<v Speaker 7>come the deadline. Love you, tim Ka, all.

647
00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:18.839
<v Speaker 2>Right, man, all right, man, well and Guardiana appreciate it.

648
00:33:19.880 --> 00:33:22.000
<v Speaker 2>This team, I believe a day off tomorrow, we'll be

649
00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:25.039
<v Speaker 2>ready to go and dialed in for this next home stand.

650
00:33:25.039 --> 00:33:28.720
<v Speaker 2>But certainly a lot of airs on the defensive side

651
00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:30.759
<v Speaker 2>on this road trip, a lot of walks from the

652
00:33:30.759 --> 00:33:34.119
<v Speaker 2>Dodger pitchers, a lot of base running, mistakes by guys

653
00:33:34.160 --> 00:33:36.279
<v Speaker 2>on the bass pass, things that need to be cleaned up,

654
00:33:36.319 --> 00:33:40.839
<v Speaker 2>things that are uncharacteristically being done by the Dodgers that

655
00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:43.880
<v Speaker 2>we have not seen in the last few years. Usually,

656
00:33:44.519 --> 00:33:48.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's mistakes that you know, other teams make

657
00:33:48.440 --> 00:33:51.039
<v Speaker 2>that the Dodgers jump on. It's not vice versa. And

658
00:33:51.039 --> 00:33:53.119
<v Speaker 2>the other teams have been taking advantage of the walks,

659
00:33:53.279 --> 00:33:55.799
<v Speaker 2>the bad base running, the airrors and had snuck up

660
00:33:55.799 --> 00:33:57.400
<v Speaker 2>on the Dodgers on this road trip. That's why they

661
00:33:57.480 --> 00:33:58.960
<v Speaker 2>go to and four. But they take a win in

662
00:33:59.000 --> 00:34:03.359
<v Speaker 2>the finale today, beating the Washington National six to five. Isy,

663
00:34:03.559 --> 00:34:05.559
<v Speaker 2>I know it wasn't the road trip we all wanted,

664
00:34:05.640 --> 00:34:08.280
<v Speaker 2>but hey, second team to get to ten wins along

665
00:34:08.280 --> 00:34:09.400
<v Speaker 2>with the Padre is not bad.

666
00:34:11.440 --> 00:34:15.039
<v Speaker 11>Okay, Yeah, I guess you know what I get better

667
00:34:15.239 --> 00:34:19.039
<v Speaker 11>then being on six? So what were they were? The

668
00:34:19.159 --> 00:34:24.280
<v Speaker 11>sixteen road trip? Right, yeah, so it's yeah, okay, well

669
00:34:24.320 --> 00:34:26.800
<v Speaker 11>I get to Betty being over six. Yeah, it was

670
00:34:26.840 --> 00:34:32.440
<v Speaker 11>pretty prosthetic. They strike out, need to stop, and I

671
00:34:32.519 --> 00:34:36.000
<v Speaker 11>only get the defferense and it's obvious play not forget

672
00:34:36.079 --> 00:34:40.199
<v Speaker 11>play Freeman within the lineup, it's obvious that they missed.

673
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:46.239
<v Speaker 11>They missed ready. So anyway, so they have have have

674
00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:50.679
<v Speaker 11>go home sin and some money, please, I missed them

675
00:34:50.719 --> 00:34:54.119
<v Speaker 11>together with hoping. We did the launching. Yeah, it's okay.

676
00:34:54.320 --> 00:34:56.840
<v Speaker 2>Unfortunately, too many clouds in the skies today is he

677
00:34:57.320 --> 00:34:59.920
<v Speaker 2>didn't didn't permit for a launch day. I saw that

678
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:02.519
<v Speaker 2>lunches have to be scrubbed and we'll do it another day.

679
