It's Morongo Casino Dodgers 20 00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:50.159 on Deck, your official Dodger pregame show. You're world champion 21 00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:53.960 Los Angeles Dodgers twenty nine and seventeen on this season, 22 00:00:54.280 --> 00:00:57.840 first place atop the NL West. After dropping the first 23 00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.880 two games of this freeway series to the Angels, the 24 00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.760 Dodgers now look to the Catman to provide to get 25 00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:07.599 some help and not get swept by the Halos. First 26 00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:10.079 pitch on this Sunday from Dodgers Stadium is coming up 27 00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:12.120 at one ten. Between then and now, we got a 28 00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:14.400 lot to get to here on Morongo Casino Dodgers on Deck, 29 00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:19.040 you're gonna hear from President of Baseball Operations Andrew Freeman 30 00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:24.280 because the Dodgers earlier today designated for assignment Chris Taylor, 31 00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:28.599 a popular Dodgers since twenty seventeen. They have activated Tommy 32 00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:31.879 Edmond from the injured list. Kirby Yates has been placed 33 00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.120 on the injured list. Lu Trevino activated and brought up 34 00:01:35.120 --> 00:01:38.840 from Oklahoma City. So two roster moves made for the 35 00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:41.519 Dodgers today. More on that with Andrew Freeman coming up. 36 00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:42.040 More on that. 37 00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:45.159 Throughout the pregame show, we'll dive deeper into this pitching matchup. 38 00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:48.159 David va Sego's one on one with Dodgers all time 39 00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:52.560 leading closer Ken Lee Janssen, all time leading savesman, will 40 00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:54.799 join DV in about forty five minutes, we got your 41 00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:58.480 Dodgers' magical moment. Shortly, Kirsten Watson from Sports and ATLA 42 00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:00.359 will join us, and it's just a few more we'll 43 00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:02.560 send it out to the Gallpit Motors broadcast booth with 44 00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:04.640 Steven Nelson and Jose Moto well. 45 00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:05.159 Last night. 46 00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:07.920 It was the return of Clayton Kershaw, but it was 47 00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:12.400 spoiled by an offensive onslaught by the Anaheim Angels. Clayton 48 00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:16.159 Kershaw making his first start of twenty twenty five, and 49 00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:18.639 it was a rough one. He went four innings, gave 50 00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:22.560 up five runs on five hits, walk three. He gave 51 00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:25.080 up three runs in the top half of the first 52 00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:27.199 inning to put the Dodgers in the hole. In the 53 00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:29.800 bottom of the first so Andy Pies got him back 54 00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:30.960 with one swing of the bat. 55 00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:35.800 Anderson goes to that Bicep calls his pitch to a hoppy. 56 00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:40.639 The payoff to Piz is pummel center field. 57 00:02:40.680 --> 00:02:44.759 Indep, We'll go back on the warning track, hit the walls. 58 00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:53.879 Brand What a swing from Andy Piz. A three run 59 00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:56.599 tank to death center ties the game. 60 00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:01.840 Three run home run for Andy Paie. Hasn't just like 61 00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:04.360 that three to nothing deficit. It was a three to 62 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:08.080 three game and a brand new ball game. After one inning, however, 63 00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:10.120 the Angels would get a run at the top of 64 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:12.039 the third. They'd ad a run at the top of 65 00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:14.360 the fourth to go up five to three. Key k 66 00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:16.840 Hernandez in the bottom of the fourth inning with a 67 00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:19.319 solo home run to the left center that made it a 68 00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:21.800 five to four Angels lead, and then in the bottom 69 00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:25.240 of the six the rookie Dalton Rushing tied it up. 70 00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:28.840 Now patient at the plate, the two zero Rushing will 71 00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:30.039 swing and that's a rope. 72 00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:32.639 Down the right field line. It's a fair ball into 73 00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:36.479 the corner. Kick k waved around. He will score as 74 00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:40.000 the ball bounce out of play. It's an RBI ground 75 00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:43.439 rule double for Dalton Rushing and this game is tied 76 00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:44.080 at five. 77 00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:48.280 Dalton Rushing with the ground rule double scoring keik. That's 78 00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:49.639 the top tier play of the game, brought to by 79 00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:52.879 Arco Quality, top tier gas for last. The Dodgers and 80 00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:56.080 the sixth inning would take the lead seven to five, 81 00:03:56.199 --> 00:03:59.680 feeling pretty good about themselves, needing just nine outs to 82 00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:02.759 get win and even up this series. However, the Angels 83 00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:05.919 had another plan. They would take the lead in the 84 00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:08.840 top top half of the seventh inning. As the Angels 85 00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:11.520 in that seventh put a five spot on the scoreboard, 86 00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:13.560 Dodgers answered back with the run in the bottom of 87 00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:15.719 the seventh answer back with the run in the bottom 88 00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:18.279 of the eighth on the Max Munthsye RBI single. It 89 00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:20.319 was a ten to nine game, Dodgers back in it. 90 00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:22.519 They had a chance to tie it, but couldn't to 91 00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:25.040 go to the ninth Lugo homer to left to make 92 00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:27.519 it a two run game, and that's how it would end. 93 00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:30.319 The Anaheim Angels, for the second night in a row, 94 00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:35.000 beat the Dodgers eleven to nine. Kirby Yates gets the loss, 95 00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:37.279 a blown save for the right hander, who then goes 96 00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:40.199 on the injured list with a hamstring injury. Tough one 97 00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:43.279 for the Dodgers, who are now twenty nine and seventeen overall. 98 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:45.959 They have dropped now two straight to the Angels, who 99 00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:48.839 would have thunked that, and today they need Tony Gonsolin 100 00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:50.639 to get them out of it and get a win 101 00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:53.240 to salvage this series. First pitch of one ten and 102 00:04:53.240 --> 00:04:55.160 with more we head out to the gapin Motors Broadcast 103 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:57.759 booth as we welcome in Steven Nelson in Jose mode. 104 00:04:57.800 --> 00:04:58.879 Guys, thank you Tim. 105 00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:01.480 Great to be at Dodge Stadium on this Sunday as 106 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:04.079 we see kids and families making their way around the 107 00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:08.600 warning track and the Dodgers trying to avoid the sweep 108 00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:10.720 at the hands of the Halos today. If you can 109 00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:13.120 believe that or not. Be Jose motive. That is, baseball 110 00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:15.319 doesn't matter the record or the talent level. You got 111 00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:17.879 to play between the white lines. And ultimately, the Angels 112 00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:20.600 have given their Dodgers their first home series loss in 113 00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:21.360 more than a month. 114 00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:24.680 As Ron Washington pointed to his team before the series, listen, guys, 115 00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:26.759 the challenge is all about us to go out there 116 00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:28.639 and prove to the other side where I was at 117 00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.319 one point back in the seventies, that we belong at 118 00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:33.600 a different level, not the team that we've seen so 119 00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:36.560 far from us. And they took that to heart. And 120 00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:39.959 ronin Old hadn't played well on the road slugging team 121 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:42.759 that just disappeared from early in the season. No Mike 122 00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.800 troutentter c. I think Johnny Washington, their hitting coach show. 123 00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:47.839 I brought it out belts yesterday saying, Hey, who are 124 00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:49.360 we facing one of the best players in the game, 125 00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:51.399 one of the top pitchers in the game. His name 126 00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:53.959 is Clayton Kershaw. Which version are we going to see 127 00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:55.199 in how we're going to approach O. We're going to 128 00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:57.959 be a fair fear because it's Clayton Kersher. But if 129 00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:00.399 they brought the right approach they made him pitch and 130 00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:03.399 they're not miss mistakes, and then all through the game 131 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:06.279 that mentality carry through because they're outstanding all the way, 132 00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:09.160 especially as we know where it hurts Moores with two strikes. 133 00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:12.079 Yeah, disappointing loss for the Dodgers. Tony Gonson is going 134 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:14.199 to try and help them avoid the sweep today, but 135 00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:15.120 we don't want. 136 00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:15.600 To bury the lead. 137 00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:19.319 There is big news continuing a week of news around 138 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:23.240 Dodgers Nation, emotional news for some fans for sure.

He 193 00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:57.440 did have a ground out a double play in the 194 00:08:57.480 --> 00:09:00.960 sixth inning that was scored Dalton rushing, but no RBI 195 00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:04.240 on the groundouts zero for six. Last Night show, Hey 196 00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:07.080 Otani in an eleven and nine loss to the Halos. 197 00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.960 This is Kirston's corner with Kirston Watson. 198 00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:14.080 And Kirston now joins us from the stadium on the 199 00:09:14.120 --> 00:09:16.000 Sunday brought to by Cars for Kids.

Some 204 00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:30.720 of the old dogs no longer with the Blue Kirsten. 205 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.440 Yeah, it's been a crazy few days if you really 206 00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:36.080 think about it. I mean, two of the longest tenured Dodgers, 207 00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.159 so Austin position player excuse me, so Austin Barnes and 208 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.720 now Chris Taylor have been designated for assignment. 209 00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:43.799 You know, it's this. 210 00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:46.279 Is just the reality of what happens in baseball. I 211 00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:48.519 think even when Eric Carros the other day he said, 212 00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:48.840 this is. 213 00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:50.480 The evolution of baseball. 214 00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:52.960 You know, you have these guys who have been a 215 00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:56.039 big part of this organization, whether it's you know, being 216 00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:59.840 Clinton Kershaw's guy in Austin Barnes case, or having walk 217 00:09:59.879 --> 00:10:02.399 off home runs in the playoffs, things like that. In 218 00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:05.879 regard to Chris Taylor, huge plays that will truly never forget, 219 00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:09.000 big moments for this organization. But right now, you know, 220 00:10:09.080 --> 00:10:11.879 the production just hasn't been where he's hoping for it 221 00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.639 to be. And we've seen young players like hey Son 222 00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:17.639 Kim for example, who have stepped in and who are 223 00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:20.240 who are stepping up and they're performing and they're showing 224 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.399 that they belong at this level. And of course now 225 00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:25.480 you have guys returning from the IL and Tommy Edmund today, 226 00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:30.759 Tayoscar Hernandez tomorrow hopefully, and with that, moves were gonna 227 00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:33.320 have to be made. And so as much as it's 228 00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:36.200 a tough pill to swallow, especially for you know, these 229 00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:38.159 two guys who have been around for so long, who 230 00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:41.039 do mean a lot in the clubhouse, they also just 231 00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:43.639 are talking to a few guys after the news of 232 00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:47.320 Austin Barnes being DFAED. It does sound like, you know, 233 00:10:47.440 --> 00:10:50.720 guys were in specific, I guess Chris Taylor in this 234 00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.600 situation was aware that something like this could be on 235 00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:57.200 the horizon, and of course now they have ultimately made 236 00:10:57.200 --> 00:10:58.919 the decision to move on from him. 237 00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:02.360 At the moment, Yeah, the baseball side of things is 238 00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:05.840 one thing. The financial side of baseball is a whole 239 00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:07.360 other side of the sport. 240 00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:09.840 On a lighter note, though, I hear a lot. 241 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:12.480 Of young kids in the background there at Dodger Stadium. 242 00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:15.200 Oh my goodness, it's the best part of today. There 243 00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:17.399 are fifteen well, I guess hopefully we can win today 244 00:11:17.399 --> 00:11:19.000 and then that'll be the better part. But as of 245 00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:21.879 right now, there are fifteen thousand Little leaguers here and 246 00:11:21.919 --> 00:11:24.480 they are so precious. And so I was sitting in 247 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:27.080 the dugout and Matt Sower came out and I'm like, Matt, like, 248 00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:29.039 what are you doing out here? Just hanging out? And 249 00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:31.799 he goes, actually, my little league team is here today 250 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:33.639 and is a part of the parade. So he played 251 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:36.360 for the Orchid Nationals. He was on the team that 252 00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:39.320 was the Phillies, and so they are here, and so 253 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:41.879 he waited to go and see them. His mom actually 254 00:11:41.960 --> 00:11:45.799 runs a daycare and so one of the Little leaguers 255 00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:48.279 goes to her daycare. So he was able to be like, oh, 256 00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:50.360 I knew when they were coming and see them, and 257 00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:52.559 he went out and he signed different autographs for them, 258 00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:54.799 and he was just so excited, and even they were 259 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:57.600 they knew that they had a product of the Orchid 260 00:11:57.639 --> 00:12:00.200 Nationals who were playing on the Dodgers, and so it 261 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:01.759 was really special for him to see them. And he 262 00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:04.240 even told me that he has a fun surprise coming 263 00:12:04.279 --> 00:12:07.399 this offseason because he recently found out that they're going 264 00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:11.720 to be naming the baseball stadium for the ballpark I 265 00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:14.480 should say for the Orchid Nationals in that little league 266 00:12:14.519 --> 00:12:18.080 team or that little league organization. They're naming the ballpark 267 00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:20.639 after him. So he's so excited. He said it hasn't 268 00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:22.480 got up Jes yet, it'll go up this offseason. But 269 00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:25.600 just so sweet. And it's really a reminder that these 270 00:12:25.639 --> 00:12:28.240 little kids like these are the future of Major League 271 00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:30.600 baseball and we'll be hopefully seeing these kids in the 272 00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:31.480 big leagues one day. 273 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:33.320 It's a fun day out at the Ravine. 274 00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:35.480 Hopefully the Dodgers can get a win and end this 275 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:36.519 thing on a positive. 276 00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:37.039 No Curreson. 277 00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:39.360 We appreciate it still to come here on Marango because 278 00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.080 you know, Dodgers on deck will dive deeper into this 279 00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:41.879 pitching matchup. 280 00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:43.399 David Vat saying goes. 281 00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.240 One on one with the all time leading closer for 282 00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:49.639 the Dodgers, now the closer for the Angels, Ken Lee Jansen. 283 00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:50.320 That's coming up. 284 00:12:50.480 --> 00:12:52.320 If we lead you up to Dodgers and Angels on 285 00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:54.600 this Sunday first pitch of one to ten.

As 313 00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:13.519 today the Dodgers announced that Chris Taylor, designated for assignment 314 00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.320 as Tommy Edmon, is back on the active roster. 315 00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:17.720 Let's hear from Andrew Freeman. 316 00:14:17.960 --> 00:14:21.320 This has been a very emotional week for all of us. 317 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:25.679 Barnesy and CT have been in the middle of some 318 00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:30.960 huge moments for this organization. Both guys have left an 319 00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:33.799 indelible mark on our culture and where we're at at 320 00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:38.679 this point. So the decisions were incredibly difficult. The conversations 321 00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:47.519 were tough, but with where we are division race, you know, 322 00:14:47.799 --> 00:14:51.200 composition of roster everything. You know, we felt like this 323 00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:54.879 was in the Dodgers' best interest in terms of how 324 00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:56.759 to win as many games and put us in position 325 00:14:56.919 --> 00:15:00.000 to best win a World Series this year. Doesn't mean 326 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.360 I mean that it was easy, but ultimately felt like 327 00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:07.720 it was the right thing to do the place. 328 00:15:10.840 --> 00:15:13.840 And at least he just had such a medi. 329 00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:14.360 Impact on this. 330 00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:21.600 Yeah, I mean beyond uh, just how endearing he is 331 00:15:21.639 --> 00:15:25.200 to his teammates. Just the energy, brings a foot speed, 332 00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:31.519 the versatility as well, just something that adds a lot 333 00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:32.600 to our roster. 334 00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:33.360 In a different look. 335 00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:37.519 Again, no decision has ever made in a vacuum. It's 336 00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:40.200 within the context of our roster and where we're at. 337 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:46.919 And so, you know, he's done a great job. Rush 338 00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:51.320 talked about the other day. You know, when we drafted him, 339 00:15:51.320 --> 00:15:54.320 obviously we loved the bat, didn't have a ton of 340 00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:58.240 experience behind the plate. Have challenged him each year with 341 00:15:59.519 --> 00:16:02.919 different and things to work on, and to his credit, 342 00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:06.960 he as an incredible motor and work ethic and has 343 00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:09.039 continued to get better and better and better and better. 344 00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:13.799 And so on one hand, there is the element of 345 00:16:14.080 --> 00:16:15.639 you know, the guys who have been here and been 346 00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:17.840 a big part of what we've done, and the other 347 00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:20.840 is looking ahead to who is going to be a 348 00:16:20.879 --> 00:16:24.840 part of, you know, the next wave. And it's far 349 00:16:24.879 --> 00:16:29.639 from science. It's it's art, and it's difficult, and it's 350 00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:34.120 you know, I think the end for people that you know, 351 00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:39.320 have been such significant contributors. It's never going to feel good. 352 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:43.039 And it's been tough for a lot of us this week, 353 00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:47.399 but you know, felt like in Russia's development, where he's 354 00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:51.080 at what he's done, that he had earned this right. 355 00:16:51.559 --> 00:16:51.919 All right. 356 00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:54.960 So there's Andrew Freeman, President of Baseball Operations, talking about 357 00:16:55.159 --> 00:16:58.200 two veteran Dodgers being DFA this week, with two young 358 00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:01.279 players getting opportunities now, as he said, a young new 359 00:17:01.320 --> 00:17:04.680 wave of players getting a shot. When we continue here 360 00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:06.839 on Dodgers on Deck, more of this with David Vassay 361 00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:08.839 as we lead jump to first pitch on this Sunday, 362 00:17:08.839 --> 00:17:11.279 it's the Dodgers and Angels.

In 376 00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:54.079 this case, you got some young guys who have been 377 00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:56.640 knocking on the door right DV and finally getting their opportunity, 378 00:17:56.640 --> 00:17:57.319 and they've produced. 379 00:17:58.160 --> 00:18:02.559 Yeah. Chris Taylor and Austin Barnes obviously contributed a lot 380 00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:06.200 to the Dodgers' success from twenty fifteen all the way 381 00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:09.839 through twenty twenty one and even into twenty twenty four. 382 00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:14.319 But guys like Hay Song Kim and Dalton Rushing are 383 00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:17.960 the Austin Barnes and Chris Taylor's of today. I mean, 384 00:18:18.200 --> 00:18:21.359 think back to when Austin Barnes broke in a j 385 00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:24.400 Ellis was traded. Think back to when Chris Taylor was 386 00:18:24.440 --> 00:18:28.599 really integrated into this lineup, Guys like Andre Ethier got 387 00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:32.279 less playing time. So when you're around long enough, and 388 00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:37.000 it's a unique situation, people in Andrew Freeman's position don't 389 00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:41.119 usually last as long as he has lasted with one organization. 390 00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:44.759 But that just is a testament to the success of 391 00:18:44.839 --> 00:18:48.880 the Dodgers since Andrew took over, and obviously the support 392 00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:51.599 he's gotten from Mark Walter in more ways than one. 393 00:18:51.759 --> 00:18:54.759 So yes, it is kind of an end of an era. 394 00:18:55.039 --> 00:18:57.880 I mean, guys like Cody Bellinger and Corey Seeger and 395 00:18:58.039 --> 00:19:01.640 Justin Turner were a big part of the success of 396 00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:05.759 those teams, but Barnes and Chris Taylor and Max Munsey 397 00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:08.960 to a certain extent were the holdovers. And now we're 398 00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:11.440 moving into a new chapter for the Dodgers. 399 00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:13.880 Certainly well said David is driven by four. There's one 400 00:19:13.880 --> 00:19:16.039 thing we like, its choices. Find yours with the four 401 00:19:16.160 --> 00:19:18.759
