<v Speaker 1>I'm joined right now by a man that we met

3
00:00:02.960 --> 00:00:06.040
<v Speaker 1>last year at Dodgers Stadium, and he was the Dodgers

4
00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Minor League pitcher of the Year. And you would think

5
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:11.240
<v Speaker 1>being the minor league pitcher of the year, he would

6
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:14.320
<v Speaker 1>have a real locker, But not so for Jackson Ferris.

7
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:17.440
<v Speaker 1>He's got one of these fold out lockers in the

8
00:00:17.440 --> 00:00:20.199
<v Speaker 1>middle of the clubhouse, hiding behind it every morning.

9
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:22.239
<v Speaker 2>Jackson, thanks a lot for the time. Great to see you.

<v Speaker 3>Yeah, great to see you. Thanks for having me.

11
00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:25.600
<v Speaker 2>What do you think about this locker situation.

12
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:28.160
<v Speaker 4>I'm just happy to be here, honestly, it doesn't matter

13
00:00:28.199 --> 00:00:30.280
<v Speaker 4>what locker to be honest Yeah.

14
00:00:29.839 --> 00:00:32.240
<v Speaker 1>After the year you had being traded over to the

15
00:00:32.280 --> 00:00:35.159
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers and now being in your first big league camp,

16
00:00:35.240 --> 00:00:36.359
<v Speaker 1>what's been the experience?

17
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:38.719
<v Speaker 4>Like, it's been good, you know, being a big league

18
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:40.359
<v Speaker 4>camp now, just trying to learn from all these guys,

19
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:43.280
<v Speaker 4>getting the routine down, getting like learning from them how

20
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:44.920
<v Speaker 4>like a long year goes, and just how to stay

21
00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:46.719
<v Speaker 4>healthy through out a long year. Because I mean, I'm

22
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.039
<v Speaker 4>hoping at some point that this year, next year, whenever,

23
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:50.960
<v Speaker 4>that I can be up there and hopefully playing in

24
00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:52.679
<v Speaker 4>October with all these guys, and.

25
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:55.000
<v Speaker 1>It feels like all of you guys that are coming

26
00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:58.439
<v Speaker 1>up through the organization have a real tight bond. Have

27
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:01.320
<v Speaker 1>you fit in quickly with your new teammates.

28
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:03.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, for sure, Like I mean, getting to know these guys,

29
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:05.000
<v Speaker 4>the minor league guys, everybody, it's been a lot of fun.

30
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:07.000
<v Speaker 4>So I mean just learning from them, learning from the

31
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:09.280
<v Speaker 4>older guys, and then everybody just having fun at the

32
00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:09.799
<v Speaker 4>same time.

33
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.400
<v Speaker 2>What was your off season like to prepare for this,

34
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:13.359
<v Speaker 2>for the next step?

35
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:15.879
<v Speaker 4>You know, I didn't really do anything different, just kind

36
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:17.799
<v Speaker 4>of went back home to North Carolina, did everything that

37
00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:18.280
<v Speaker 4>I've been doing.

38
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:19.959
<v Speaker 3>It's kind of been working for me the last few years.

39
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:21.920
<v Speaker 4>Didn't want to change anything up and just kind of

40
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:25.040
<v Speaker 4>like do my routine, get the weight room stuff down, pack,

41
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:26.920
<v Speaker 4>get a little bit stronger, and then just come out here.

42
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 3>Ready.

43
00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>We always hear about the Dodgers and developing pitching in

44
00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:34.400
<v Speaker 1>the minor leagues. You've been with two different You've been

45
00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.400
<v Speaker 1>with another organization before coming to the Dodgers.

46
00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:41.879
<v Speaker 2>What is the secret sauce? For a lack of better term.

47
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:43.840
<v Speaker 4>I just feel like all the coaches here they're confident

48
00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:45.840
<v Speaker 4>in what they what they say, and what they believe

49
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:48.079
<v Speaker 4>in terms of like, hey, we're not like, yeah, we

50
00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:49.959
<v Speaker 4>might screw up whatever, but like we'll be able to

51
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:52.439
<v Speaker 4>fix whatever happens, whatever goes wrong, But like at the

52
00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:54.920
<v Speaker 4>same time, they're confident that they're right whenever they give

53
00:01:54.959 --> 00:01:56.560
<v Speaker 4>you a coaching suggestion.

54
00:01:56.680 --> 00:01:58.000
<v Speaker 3>So, I mean, I like that a lot.

55
00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:01.159
<v Speaker 1>Jackson ferriss is our guest, had a first pitch at

56
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:03.439
<v Speaker 1>camel Back Ranch, and Jackson, I don't know if you

57
00:02:03.439 --> 00:02:06.239
<v Speaker 1>could see beyond this locker and this post right here,

58
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:08.280
<v Speaker 1>but there's some pretty good pitchers on the other side

59
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:11.280
<v Speaker 1>of that clubhouse. Have you had a chance to watch

60
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:13.400
<v Speaker 1>them and just see how they do things?

61
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:15.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, made it kind of a priority to go out

62
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:17.479
<v Speaker 4>there every time any of these guys are throwing out

63
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:18.680
<v Speaker 4>there to make sure I get out there and just

64
00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:21.039
<v Speaker 4>kind of see how they go about their routine before

65
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.039
<v Speaker 4>before they throw their routine in the weight room, and

66
00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:25.520
<v Speaker 4>just kind of watch them. I mean, they've been doing

67
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:27.520
<v Speaker 4>it for a lot longer than me, and clearly they

68
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:31.000
<v Speaker 4>they're doing it well. So I mean, can learn something

69
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:31.639
<v Speaker 4>from everybody.

70
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:34.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Snell seems to be a guy that wants to

71
00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:36.719
<v Speaker 1>coach up the younger guys. Has he talked to you

72
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:38.680
<v Speaker 1>have you guys had any interactions.

73
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:39.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we have.

74
00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:42.000
<v Speaker 4>I feel like just kind of like me getting my

75
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:45.319
<v Speaker 4>feet way, you know, like I'm still learning from like myself,

76
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:47.400
<v Speaker 4>you know, like getting out here and like I'm trying

77
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:49.400
<v Speaker 4>to take everything I want right now, and then as

78
00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:51.479
<v Speaker 4>I get going, you know, like ask these guys questions

79
00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:53.599
<v Speaker 4>about like what they what they feel about when they

80
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:55.479
<v Speaker 4>like are in a bullpen, pregame, bullpen, aer out in

81
00:02:55.479 --> 00:02:57.919
