Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we are within an hour, forty two minutes
Speaker 1: and change. Ben Maller, I don't know if your if
Speaker 1: your trade deadline clock is shown the same thing, but
Speaker 1: forty two minutes and change until the trade deadline in
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball.
Speaker 2: We got moving pieces all over the place. He's Ben Maller.
Speaker 1: I'm Jonas Knox in for Rogan and Rodney here on
Speaker 1: AM five to seventy LA Sports, and there's nobody better
Speaker 1: at breaking it all down, either happy with the inactivity
Speaker 1: of the Dodgers or upset about it. He's gonna call
Speaker 1: it as he sees it. Your good friend and ours
Speaker 1: the one and only. David Vasse joining us here now
Speaker 1: on a five seventy Dave, what's happening? Happy Tuesday?
Speaker 3: Wow? Back to back days with Ben Mallard. Jonas, I
Speaker 3: apologize that is worthy of going to HR.
Speaker 1: I actually went to HR last night. A little birdie
Speaker 1: told me you're trashing me on the petrols and money.
Speaker 2: Show you what's wrong with you.
Speaker 1: Keep my name out of your mouth. Keep my name
Speaker 1: out of your mouth. I say, I know, I know,
Speaker 1: I'm the most fascinating man in the world, and I'm
Speaker 1: in your head. But you got to talk about me
Speaker 1: on other shows. How dare you?
Speaker 3: I talked about you on your own show yesterday.
Speaker 2: I wasn't listening when you talk right now? Yeah, Envy
Speaker 2: my god?
Speaker 1: So Dave, are you hearing anything with forty minutes now
Speaker 1: and change until the deadline? Are you hearing any rumblings
Speaker 1: in San Diego? Obviously the Tanner Scott deal was a
Speaker 1: target for the Dodgers, but you know San Diego was
Speaker 1: able to make the move. Are you hearing anything about
Speaker 1: what the Dodgers are planning or what they're working on
Speaker 1: with a little over a half hour left?
Speaker 3: Well, with what the Padres gave the Marlins, it was
Speaker 3: consistent what the Marlins have been asking every team for
Speaker 3: two of their top ten prospects, and the Padres were
Speaker 3: willing to meet that price. So they have a very
Speaker 3: formidable bullpen now with Scott, with their existing closer Roberto Suarez,
Speaker 3: and also picking up Jason Adam from the race. So
Speaker 3: they've shortened the game in a big way, and they
Speaker 3: may not have the durability of their starting pitchers one
Speaker 3: through five, but that's the direction aj Preller thought he
Speaker 3: could go to shorten the game and support his starting rotation.
Speaker 3: So that's very, very formidable. And for the Dodgers, going
Speaker 3: back to last week and two weeks ago, and I
Speaker 3: just got a call about forty minutes ago from a
Speaker 3: source connected to the White Sox. They are asking for
Speaker 3: Dalton Rushing in a trade package for Garrett Crochet, and
Speaker 3: the Dodgers are unwilling to meet that asking price. And
Speaker 3: I don't blame them. They could use Dalton Rushing and
Speaker 3: possibly another trade in the op season to acquire somebody
Speaker 3: that maybe is a little bit more dependable considering Crochet's innings,
Speaker 3: considering Crochet's help history. So that's where it stands right now.
Speaker 3: Jack Flaherty is still on the board. But going back
Speaker 3: to a Dodger talk I did a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 3: If you want to think out of the box, the
Speaker 3: out of the box trade for the Dodgers is Vladimir
Speaker 3: Guerrero Junior. He's the impact bat the Dodgers need, and
Speaker 3: my understanding is he would be willing to play third
Speaker 3: base for the Dodgers. So to me, that was the
Speaker 3: out of the box trade, and who knows, maybe that
Speaker 3: still happens.
Speaker 2: Are you playing that seed Masset right now? Sweet?
Speaker 1: That out put that on Twitter. Come on, I'd like you.
Speaker 1: I would approve of that trade that that would be
Speaker 1: that has a.
Speaker 2: See I can.
Speaker 1: I can get on board with Vladimir Guerrero although he's
Speaker 1: is he in shape now? I know he was out
Speaker 1: of shape for a while, So if he's in shape,
Speaker 1: I'm all for it. And he hadn't had a great
Speaker 1: year in Toronto, but I'd put him in the middle of.
Speaker 3: Ben Actually he got off to a bad start, but
Speaker 3: since the beginning of May, he's the best hitter in baseball.
Speaker 3: He's right up there with Juan Soto. So the overall time.
Speaker 2: I take him, Yeah, I've heard of the guy. I
Speaker 2: would take him about.
Speaker 3: Max Munsey, is he ever going to play again? Don't
Speaker 3: the Dodgers beat some coverage at third base?
Speaker 1: I think you'll be hosting Dodger Talk with you, Max,
Speaker 1: He'll be doing the show with you postgame Dodger Talk
Speaker 1: coming up in here. I mean, it does feel day.
Speaker 1: And we kind of kicked this around, you know a
Speaker 1: little bit last week. We kicked it around yesterday that
Speaker 1: I really firmly believe that they're thinking, is well, our
Speaker 1: de facto trade deadline is going to be when all
Speaker 1: these guys come back. But the fact that Dave Roberts
Speaker 1: was so open about the idea of, well, we need
Speaker 1: to do something, does that mean that maybe he's not
Speaker 1: as confident as some others are in the organization about
Speaker 1: them being able to rely on health down the stretch.
Speaker 3: Well, whenever you're relying on players to come back that
Speaker 3: haven't played in a while, there's no guarantees. Bruce Stark
Speaker 3: graderol is expected to come back within the next ten days.
Speaker 3: The Dodgers traded for Tommy Edmund, who is coming off
Speaker 3: risk surgery. Guys that come off risk surgery usually are
Speaker 3: not the same hitter until the following season, So those
Speaker 3: are not guarantees that these guys are going to come
Speaker 3: back and perform at a high level that you would expect.
Speaker 3: So that's part of the thinking from anybody that is
Speaker 3: wanting more. But look, the Dodgers, I'm a believer that
Speaker 3: Michael Kopek and Tommy Edmund will help the greater good
Speaker 3: of the team. You're only as good as the sum
Speaker 3: of your parts, and that's how I feel those two
Speaker 3: guys help the Dodgers.
Speaker 2: I disagree.
Speaker 3: I know I do want Ben Well, why do you
Speaker 3: want the Dodgers to trade for. That was satisfying, David.
Speaker 1: They traded for a guy who hasn't played, who you
Speaker 1: said as a risk injury, and a guy who's been
Speaker 1: an abject failure as.
Speaker 2: A pitcher his entire career.
Speaker 1: Why should you, as a fan, why should you think
Speaker 1: that's going to help the greater good of the team.
Speaker 2: I mean, I hope they do. I hope I'm wrong, But.
Speaker 1: Don't tell me that that's that's an exciting move. That's
Speaker 1: not an exciting move.
Speaker 2: It's not.
Speaker 3: I didn't say it was an exciting move. I feel
Speaker 3: like the exciting move was signing Tommy during the off season.
Speaker 1: That's great, But that's that's already that's already done. But
Speaker 1: you you know, listen, you always have to improve. You
Speaker 1: always have to improve the team.
Speaker 3: And I feel like they did. They got better defense.
Speaker 1: You think that that was a problem, all right, I
Speaker 1: well will respectfully disagree. I want to see something we
Speaker 1: still have? What we got thirty five minutes.
Speaker 3: I want to know what you still have not expressed?
Speaker 3: Who you want? Who do you want that?
Speaker 2: Nathan Nathan of Aaldy, That's who I want.
Speaker 3: They're not trading Nathan of all why not go there
Speaker 3: only three games the Rangers are not trading, then.
Speaker 1: Trade the entire Minleell get it all right, Jack Flaerity
Speaker 1: Boom from the Detroit Tigers, get him.
Speaker 3: I'm all in for that. Yeah, get Jack Clarity, all.
Speaker 2: Your buddy's over there, and make it happen.
Speaker 3: Come on, you're saying, if they trade for Jack Clarity,
Speaker 3: you would be satisfied and call this a win for
Speaker 3: the Dodgers.
Speaker 2: That would be not a loss. Right now, it's a loss.
Speaker 2: How about that? Right now? It's a loss.
Speaker 1: You traded for a guy you traded for last year,
Speaker 1: who's okay, he's an average player, a Rozario and.
Speaker 3: Then ing over three hundred. How many Dodger role players
Speaker 3: are doing that?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay, that was with Tampa Bay in front of seven people. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's see what he does. Let's see what he does
Speaker 1: with the Dodgers when the bright lights are on and
Speaker 1: the pressure's on and all that stuff.
Speaker 2: We'll see. And he was there last year, so we'll
Speaker 2: find out.
Speaker 1: But this is you know, this remind isn't I hope
Speaker 1: the Dodgers win the World Series and I'll have but
Speaker 1: this reminds me of what they used to do back
Speaker 1: in the old days.
Speaker 2: You do nothing.
Speaker 1: By the way, Dave, I do want to keep you
Speaker 1: up to speed as to what the feedback has been
Speaker 1: from the people listening to the show. Nature Boy right
Speaker 1: rights in on Twitter. He said you should warn Vass
Speaker 1: to watch his mouth with Mallard today or lebron might
Speaker 1: get Bronnie to replace him. And he photo shopped Brownie
Speaker 1: James's face on you wearing a cast at the Brewers
Speaker 1: game after you suffered your injury. So I'm just letting
Speaker 1: you know that there is there is some feedback coming
Speaker 1: in on people creative.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very fad.
Speaker 1: Are you gonna rip that guy? Of course you're gonna
Speaker 1: rip that guy. Let me tell you best say you've changed.
Speaker 1: I've known Bessy. We were both young punks when we
Speaker 1: started out, and Bessy's cast And is it true, is
Speaker 1: it true that the point of demarcation was seven hundred
Speaker 1: and twelve days ago when you went down that slide,
Speaker 1: Bernie Brewers Slide in Milwaukee that ever since then did
Speaker 1: you came out of that cast of Bessay? You have
Speaker 1: been different. You don't look out for the little man anymore.
Speaker 1: You hang out with the robber barons. You hang out
Speaker 1: with the aristocrats, that's the crowd, and you spit Loogi's
Speaker 1: at the third ship. How many shots you take at
Speaker 1: the overnight worker? Like there's some flotsam and JEsum? Do
Speaker 1: you understand commerce is moved overnight? That society would not exist.
Speaker 3: With the overnight workers.
Speaker 2: That's a line. That's a line.
Speaker 3: Callers, the Ben Mallard callers, they would they would fall
Speaker 3: in the bucket of unemployed.
Speaker 2: That is incorrect. They all have great jobs. I've met many.
Speaker 1: In fact, I'll be in Vegas this weekend meeting listeners
Speaker 1: and supermarket Steve.
Speaker 3: Okay, are you rose? You're going to Vegas tonight? Listeners?

Speaker 2: Oh we gotta go to trade.
Speaker 1: The Pirates have acquired Isaiah Kiner Philelefa I trade wow
Speaker 1: or on the trade deadline as we are within a
Speaker 1: half hour, we'll see whether or not the Dodgers mame.
Speaker 2: On, you can do it. Get Flatty Guerrero, Dodgers, that's
Speaker 2: the guy I want.
Speaker 1: Rogan and Rodney and five seventy LA Sports, Ben Maller
Speaker 1: Jonas Knox in for the guys. Twenty two minutes away
Speaker 1: from the trade deadline of Major League Baseball. We're gonna
Speaker 1: have Vic the Brick stop by for some haiku coming
Speaker 1: up here in about ten minutes from now. But we've
Speaker 1: got twenty two minutes, Ben, until the trade deadline of
Speaker 1: Major League Baseball. I'm not sure we can top the
Speaker 1: Isaiah Kiner FILEFFA trade.
Speaker 2: I don't know how we can get over that one.
Speaker 2: That's a big one.
Speaker 1: And by by the way, was uh, were you the
Speaker 1: one who so? Was it Dave that throughout Vlad Guerrero Junior?
Speaker 2: Or was it Yeah?
Speaker 1: He tossed that out? He said, yeah, he just out
Speaker 1: of thin air, he tossed out that name.
Speaker 2: Not that he heard that from anyone, No, not at all.
Speaker 2: I'm sure No one might have floated that name to.
Speaker 1: That never happens.
Speaker 2: Ever.
Speaker 1: Ever, don't you think that if vlad Guerrero Junior, which
Speaker 1: would I think qualify as a big time movie, that's
Speaker 1: a second straight he's got he's got it. And obviously
Speaker 1: you know his dad playing for the Angels all those
Speaker 1: years back in southern California. There's some ties there. But
Speaker 1: don't you think a name like that we would have
Speaker 1: heard more about if it was actually gonna happen. Like, yes,
Speaker 1: But the Dodgers, I will give they have gone stealth
Speaker 1: from time to time. It's like they don't always air
Speaker 1: their laundry for everyone to see. So there there have
Speaker 1: been occasions in this regime where the Dodgers have made
Speaker 1: a move that's kind of come out of left field.
Speaker 2: So it is it's possible.
Speaker 1: I haven't heard a lot the last couple days about
Speaker 1: Vladimir Guerro Junior. I do pay attention to the stuff
Speaker 1: because I'm a loser, so I pay attention to the rumors.
Speaker 1: I ran a rumor website for years, so I love
Speaker 1: the rumor more than the actual. Ta's great, Well, it's wonderful, guys.
Speaker 1: I did just see this from Mike Finesan said quote.
Speaker 1: For those who wondered whether the Blue Jays might reverse
Speaker 1: course and trade their controllable players like Flag Guaro Junior,
Speaker 1: sources say Toronto has no plans to move him.
Speaker 2: Ah, they will. Plans changed, Kevin, plans changed. They might
Speaker 2: change in the next twenty minutes. You're right, man, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I was planning on sleeping right now. But look at
Speaker 2: me now I am talking to you. And by the way,
Speaker 2: here's here's here's another.
Speaker 1: Fair enough, by the way, here's another. You know, maybe
Speaker 1: a little wrinkle to throw into things. Maybe Toronto doesn't
Speaker 1: want to deal with the Dodgers after what happened with
Speaker 1: Shoeo Tani.
Speaker 2: Maybe like, no, we're not going to help you out.
Speaker 2: Yeah we're not.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're not gonna send over a flat or Boba
Speaker 1: shad or anybody like that. We're not helping you out.
Speaker 1: I also thought this, Do you think that maybe the
Speaker 1: Padres some of the motivation for them making the Tanner
Speaker 1: Scott move upon finding out the Dodgers were interested, is
Speaker 1: maybe a little revenge for the Max Scherzer fiasco that
Speaker 1: took place a couple of years ago where the Padres.
Speaker 1: It was basically reported on by everybody that Schureser was
Speaker 1: going to San Diego and then the Dodgers stepped up
Speaker 1: sweeten the offer, and next thing you know, he's with
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. Like, do you think do you think there's
Speaker 1: some revenge maybe uh Plugar.
Speaker 2: Crudge, Yeah, something like that. Udge, Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not impossible to think that's that's the case.
Speaker 1: I like my conspiracy that was sent to me by
Speaker 1: someone that the Padres are just doing this because they're
Speaker 1: gonna have to start trading away contracts in the offseason
Speaker 1: as well. The owner died right before this season, so
Speaker 1: they didn't have time to do it necessarily. How about
Speaker 1: that there's it epic fire sale in Miami. They just
Speaker 1: traded another guy I've never heard of to the Mets.
Speaker 1: I think they've traded six or seven players off their
Speaker 1: twenty six man roster today, Like in the last few hours.
Speaker 2: They got a game tonight, don't they?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, good luck?
Speaker 3: You know why not?
Speaker 1: You know it is? I do wonder though, because you'll
Speaker 1: see some guys get really emotional when they're saying by
Speaker 1: to their teammates. I wonder how many are players that
Speaker 1: are like, listen, I don't.
Speaker 2: Have a family. This team sucks, you know, just get.
Speaker 1: Me the hell out of here, see you guys later on.
Speaker 1: Because one of those things to where well everybody like.
Speaker 2: And listen. I think this applies to everybody listening.
Speaker 1: You'll have a co worker who you're really bummed out
Speaker 1: that they left, and you're like, well, you know, at
Speaker 1: least I know we're going to stay in touch, and
Speaker 1: like about you know, two months later, you never hear
Speaker 1: from him again, and it's like, yes, it's just life
Speaker 1: goes on. Like we've known that from people in radio.
Speaker 1: It's like, man, I'm really gonna miss that guy. We're
Speaker 1: for sure going to stay in touch. We were so
Speaker 1: close when you were here. You never hear from him again.
Speaker 1: I wonder how much of that goes on a major
Speaker 1: league based dreaded work friend, Like your friends at work
Speaker 1: and then you go work somewhere else or whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean we're friends though. Our guy last night on
Speaker 1: the Fox, Roberto. Yeah, our friend Roberto came in there.
Speaker 1: Roberto left. He's a bus driver.
Speaker 4: You drive the bus to the station or asking a
Speaker 4: question inquire reminds Jonas what.
Speaker 2: He did not drive the short bus? Okay, short bus.
Speaker 2: I just said the bus. Yeah, drove, but yeah, he
Speaker 2: popped by and he left to become a bud. He
Speaker 2: loves it. I guess he enjoys it. He said he
Speaker 2: liked it and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Good hours, yeah, good hours, holidays off, you know, weekends
Speaker 1: off and all that stuff.
Speaker 2: So he thinks that we don't get in radio.
Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, I mean that's one guy, but I've
Speaker 1: worked with other people I have completely vanished, like completely vanished.
Speaker 2: I have no idea whatever happened to him, Like.
Speaker 1: The Prince of Darkness, right, what do you mean he
Speaker 1: still goes to Ben Malors holiday parties? I like Kevin,
Speaker 1: and I can't get an invite to Ben's holiday.
Speaker 2: But please out there.
Speaker 1: Lee text me every once in a while and then
Speaker 1: and he'll send me the Prince of Darkness, the original Prince.
Speaker 1: You're the Prince of Darkness now, Jonas, but he's the
Speaker 1: original into darkis. He'll send me a random message, usually
Speaker 1: about the clippers. It's usually got something to do with
Speaker 1: the clippers, yeah, or some like because he did stuff
Speaker 1: at kf I too, so it would be something political
Speaker 1: because he's like crazy times and all that, so he'll
Speaker 1: send me something about that.
Speaker 2: But he's still around. He still lives in.
Speaker 4: La So By the way, you guys, you mentioned the
Speaker 4: Marlins don't have a game to play tonight. Ironically enough,
Speaker 4: guess who they're playing against? Tampa? How about the Marlins
Speaker 4: and Rays just do Jersey Roulette when they show up
Speaker 4: to the stadium tonight and just say who plays for?
Speaker 3: Who?
Speaker 2: Who matter? Right there you go. We gotta try Johnnis?
Speaker 2: Who do we got the bolt?
Speaker 3: More?
Speaker 1: Orioles are acquiring Eloi Jimenez of the White Sox. Okay
Speaker 1: to Jeff Passing of the four letter there, that's a
Speaker 1: big name that.
Speaker 2: Dodgers.
Speaker 1: The Dodgers had been mentioned about him, right, yeah, at
Speaker 1: one point mentioned for him. Can I also give a
Speaker 1: shout out here? One of my favorite follows on Twitter
Speaker 1: is John Hayman because I just love how he's just
Speaker 1: not into the whole like you know, hashtag and detail
Speaker 1: on the tweet. It's just very as a matter of fact,
Speaker 1: like and so he'll just you know, Brian day La
Speaker 1: Cruz goes to the pirates like you don't know what for,
Speaker 1: Like you don't know like what else is involved in
Speaker 1: the trade. You just know that's Uh. There was this
Speaker 1: one earlier I told Kevin about Red Sox are still
Speaker 1: looking to add lefty reliever, you know what saying? And
Speaker 1: then he also had this been the New York Mets
Speaker 1: are on the board. Huascar Raso band goes to the
Speaker 1: Mets pending medicals. Daniel Albarez headed first. According to to
Speaker 1: John Hamon, so ever heard of that person in my life?
Speaker 1: I had a beef with Hayman years ago too, Yeah.
Speaker 2: He he.
Speaker 1: We were tight when I did my rum or website
Speaker 1: because a lot of the gossip guys that are still
Speaker 1: big today, they would like send me stuff because they
Speaker 1: in those days before Twitter and stuff, you to get publicity.
Speaker 2: You wanted your stuff out there. But so I know
Speaker 2: him a little bit, just.
Speaker 1: Casually, and he got upset with me over my this
Speaker 1: is hilarious. I I did a rant about an NFL game,
Speaker 1: remember the Viking Minnesota miracle. Yeah, and I ripped this
Speaker 1: guy for the Saints who could have made the tackle
Speaker 1: Marcus Williams, Marcus Way. I took a shot at Marcus Williams,
Speaker 1: guy tackled the guy tackled ghost. You talk about a
Speaker 1: non secuitar, right, And and John Hayman like he came
Speaker 1: after me on sent me message on social because I
Speaker 1: ripped the guy.
Speaker 2: So he was trying or something like that. I'm like,
Speaker 2: of course they're trying, I think. But it was very odd.
Speaker 2: He tackled somebody that wasn't there. He was upset. I
Speaker 2: know that's what that was my rant and he but.
Speaker 1: He for some reason it made no sense, but he
Speaker 1: got upset that I ripped the guy.
Speaker 2: I had no idea John Hayman was a Saints fan.
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know he's from New York. I
Speaker 2: think he was in Miami now. But yeah, it's very odd.
Speaker 1: We need some normalcy as the trade deadliners approaching and
Speaker 1: winding down. You need calmness Jonas Sam coromness in the community.
Speaker 1: There was some tension. There was some bobbing and weaving
Speaker 1: with me and Bess. Just one man that can bring
