WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Join right now by a man that made his major

2
00:00:02.799 --> 00:00:05.519
<v Speaker 1>league debut, and he's sitting next to a man that

3
00:00:05.599 --> 00:00:08.720
<v Speaker 1>also made his major league debut, that's River Ryan. But

4
00:00:08.919 --> 00:00:11.359
<v Speaker 1>it was a great year for the young Dodger pitchers,

5
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:15.279
<v Speaker 1>including Justin Robleski. And I promise not to embarrass you

6
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:16.800
<v Speaker 1>in front of your locker.

7
00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:19.440
<v Speaker 2>Mete, thank you, thank you. I appreciate that. It's kind

8
00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:21.440
<v Speaker 2>of hard to do that though we both we both

9
00:00:23.359 --> 00:00:24.519
<v Speaker 2>we've seen a lot from each other.

10
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:27.760
<v Speaker 1>There's a few of you that weren't in big league

11
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:30.519
<v Speaker 1>camp last spring but played such a big part during

12
00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:34.200
<v Speaker 1>the regular season in the postseason. Is there any different

13
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:36.640
<v Speaker 1>feeling now? Do you have more of a confidence of

14
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:37.799
<v Speaker 1>belonging being here?

15
00:00:38.439 --> 00:00:42.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, for sure. I think confidence just comes with experience

16
00:00:43.119 --> 00:00:45.560
<v Speaker 2>at any time. Like you know, getting getting up in

17
00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:47.079
<v Speaker 2>the big leagues last year and being able to pitch

18
00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:50.399
<v Speaker 2>up there was super helpful for me just to kind

19
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:51.759
<v Speaker 2>of learn what I need to do to get better

20
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:54.119
<v Speaker 2>and things like that, and to be able to kind

21
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:56.119
<v Speaker 2>of make that jump come this spring training and I

22
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:59.600
<v Speaker 2>feel like I'm kind of progressing, you know, more and

23
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:02.920
<v Speaker 2>more each and getting to where I can be not

24
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:04.879
<v Speaker 2>just a serviceable major league picture but it but a

25
00:01:04.879 --> 00:01:06.599
<v Speaker 2>good one. So that's kind of where I'm where I'm

26
00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:07.120
<v Speaker 2>at right now.

27
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:10.280
<v Speaker 1>It feels like spring training, even the games, there's more

28
00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:13.359
<v Speaker 1>room to develop yourself and hone in on what you

29
00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:14.040
<v Speaker 1>want to work on.

30
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:16.159
<v Speaker 3>Has that been the case for you ye.

31
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:20.400
<v Speaker 2>You know, especially with some of the guys we've signed,

32
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:22.400
<v Speaker 2>like just kind of getting the chance to see how

33
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:25.879
<v Speaker 2>they go about it. It's definitely been super helpful for me.

34
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:27.760
<v Speaker 2>And kind of finally being able to be over on

35
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:29.840
<v Speaker 2>this side for spring training has been nice. Especially you

36
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:32.359
<v Speaker 2>know in games that you know they mat they matter,

37
00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:35.280
<v Speaker 2>but quote unquote don't matter. It's it's been nice to

38
00:01:35.359 --> 00:01:36.680
<v Speaker 2>kind of get the chance to go out there and

39
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:40.959
<v Speaker 2>work on stuff and and just again continue to hone

40
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:42.159
<v Speaker 2>the craft and get better.

41
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:44.400
<v Speaker 3>Have you found what you've been looking for?

42
00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:48.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you're never gonna find what you're looking for,

43
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:52.319
<v Speaker 2>because you know, I think anybody in this clubhouse, especially pitchers,

44
00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:55.680
<v Speaker 2>are are always looking for perfection. I think that's kind

45
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:58.200
<v Speaker 2>of what I've noticed is that that keeps you there,

46
00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:01.159
<v Speaker 2>is kind of that that, you know, forever chase of

47
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:03.239
<v Speaker 2>trying to be perfect, even though you know you're never

48
00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:06.079
<v Speaker 2>going to be. But kind of on that point, I

49
00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:09.719
<v Speaker 2>think I'm definitely moving in the right direction. Kind of

50
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:11.319
<v Speaker 2>had to make some arsenal changes when I got to

51
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:14.759
<v Speaker 2>the big leagues last year. So having the ability to

52
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:18.199
<v Speaker 2>kind of go into this offseason, have everybody tell me

53
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:19.639
<v Speaker 2>kind of what I need to work on, and then

54
00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:22.800
<v Speaker 2>continue to kind of do that in the off season

55
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:26.199
<v Speaker 2>and kind of really hone the pitches in and get

56
00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:28.960
<v Speaker 2>my arsenal in the spot where not only are they

57
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:31.879
<v Speaker 2>moving the way I wanted to, but continuing to gain

58
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:34.919
<v Speaker 2>the understanding of how to use the pitches that I have,

59
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>because I think that was kind of the problem towards

60
00:02:37.439 --> 00:02:38.879
<v Speaker 2>the back half of last year for me. It was

61
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:41.479
<v Speaker 2>like made a few changes and then it was like

62
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:44.039
<v Speaker 2>you're kind of up there in the blueprint that I

63
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:46.719
<v Speaker 2>used to got to get to the big leagues. It

64
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.639
<v Speaker 2>was not the same anymore. So then you're kind of

65
00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:52.400
<v Speaker 2>out there and trying to perform, but also you know,

66
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:56.159
<v Speaker 2>figure out how to sequence the stuff and make everything

67
00:02:56.159 --> 00:02:58.120
<v Speaker 2>work together. And I think I'm in a much better

68
00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:01.000
<v Speaker 2>place with that now, as I got the whole off

69
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:02.680
<v Speaker 2>season to use it, and then kind of being able

70
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:05.240
<v Speaker 2>to use it in the past couple of games.

71
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.159
<v Speaker 3>Justin Robleski is our guest.

72
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:09.919
<v Speaker 1>He's a world champion Dodger made his major league debut

73
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.120
<v Speaker 1>last year. Have you had a chance to reflect on

74
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:17.080
<v Speaker 1>your major league debut and what this team accomplished with

75
00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>the help of guys like Gavin Stone, yourself, River Ryan

76
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:22.199
<v Speaker 1>to mention a few.

77
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:26.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, you know, it was obviously kind of

78
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:29.599
<v Speaker 2>sitting in the same spot last year, you know, being

79
00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:32.960
<v Speaker 2>in minor league camp. I remember being a little frustrated,

80
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:35.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, hoping I was going to be in major

81
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:38.840
<v Speaker 2>league camp last year and and kind of didn't. And

82
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:41.000
<v Speaker 2>so that was kind of a little bit of fuel

83
00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:43.560
<v Speaker 2>for me going into the year because, you know, even

84
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:45.479
<v Speaker 2>if no one else thought it, I believe that I

85
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:47.719
<v Speaker 2>was going to debut last year, and I think that

86
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:50.560
<v Speaker 2>was a big reason why I did, just because I

87
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:53.240
<v Speaker 2>had that belief and and that kind of confidence in

88
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:55.039
<v Speaker 2>myself that I could do it and that I was

89
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.240
<v Speaker 2>good enough and sure enough, like you know, come come July,

90
00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:00.560
<v Speaker 2>they needed me and ended up, you know, gett into

91
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:04.120
<v Speaker 2>the chance to fulfill a dream and yeah, just again,

92
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:06.120
<v Speaker 2>like getting the chance to pitch up there was awesome,

93
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:09.800
<v Speaker 2>and you know, I'm definitely grateful that the organization gave

94
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 2>me the opportunity to to go help the team and

95
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:17.120
<v Speaker 2>everything else, and again just you know, very valuable stuff

96
00:04:17.160 --> 00:04:19.480
<v Speaker 2>that I gained in order to to kind of continue

97
00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:21.279
<v Speaker 2>to get better and to continue to grow as as

98
00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:21.720
<v Speaker 2>a pitcher.

99
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:25.040
<v Speaker 3>Self confidence is not something you're lacking. I'm sure that

100
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:25.839
<v Speaker 3>helped you a lot.

101
00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:29.279
<v Speaker 2>I'd say, you know, it's it's not it's not that

102
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:32.600
<v Speaker 2>I never want to come across as a guy that's

103
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:35.439
<v Speaker 2>that's overly confident. But I've been through a lot of

104
00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:38.279
<v Speaker 2>stuff in this game, went through a lot in college

105
00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:39.879
<v Speaker 2>to kind of to get here.

106
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:41.759
<v Speaker 3>Wasn't a high round guy.

107
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:44.600
<v Speaker 2>So I think, you know, part of that is just

108
00:04:44.639 --> 00:04:46.079
<v Speaker 2>like a chip on my shoulder, and I think that

109
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:49.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of helps, you know, fuel meat that through everything

110
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.160
<v Speaker 2>is is because I'm not supposed to be here. I

111
00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:54.560
<v Speaker 2>think that's kind of where it comes from for me.

112
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:57.319
<v Speaker 2>It's you know a lot of people thought I couldn't.

113
00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:00.120
<v Speaker 2>So I think that's that's where like I'm a to

114
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:01.560
<v Speaker 2>prove to you that I can. And I think that's

115
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:04.040
<v Speaker 2>kind of my It's always going to be my viewpoint,

116
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:06.079
<v Speaker 2>and that's always going to be how I view things.

117
00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:08.879
<v Speaker 2>And you know, I've worked really, really hard to get

118
00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:12.000
<v Speaker 2>in this position, and you know, the goal is always

119
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:13.759
<v Speaker 2>the same, just to continue to get better and to

120
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:16.560
<v Speaker 2>continue to improve. And you know, kind of see where

121
00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.199
<v Speaker 2>where the ceiling is and I feel like I can

122
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:20.639
<v Speaker 2>I can raise that pretty high.

123
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:22.639
<v Speaker 3>All right, justin thanks a lot for the time.

124
00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:24.920
<v Speaker 1>It's going to be a pleasure to watch you continue

125
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:27.439
<v Speaker 1>to grow and it's awesome to see your journey because

126
00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:28.399
<v Speaker 1>that's what it's all about.

127
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 3>So thank you for the time, for sure. Thank you
