36
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:46.959
<v Speaker 7>get the win, a good win for the Dodgers, he

37
00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:51.879
<v Speaker 7>explode for eight runs on eighteen hits to beat the

38
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:55.280
<v Speaker 7>Diamondbacks eight to one. The top of the lineup, absolutely

39
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:57.159
<v Speaker 7>dominating for the Dodgers.

40
00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:59.959
<v Speaker 4>Today, we talk about the Big three all the time.

41
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:04.560
<v Speaker 7>I'm Otani, Betts and Freeman, and every so often we

42
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:07.480
<v Speaker 7>talk about the Big four or the Big five when

43
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:11.759
<v Speaker 7>we throw tay Oscar Hernandez and Will Smith into the equation.

44
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:15.560
<v Speaker 7>Today it's the Big four Otani, Bett, Freeman and the

45
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:22.919
<v Speaker 7>cleanup hitter Will Smith. They go a combined eleven for

46
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:30.360
<v Speaker 7>eighteen combine three doubles, a walk, two home runs, one

47
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.800
<v Speaker 7>from Freddy Freeman, one for Mookie Betts, seven runs batted in,

48
00:02:35.199 --> 00:02:39.439
<v Speaker 7>and they score seven of the Dodgers eight runs. Talk

49
00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:43.360
<v Speaker 7>about production from the top of the lineup. Nobody else

50
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:47.000
<v Speaker 7>five through nine had to do any of the lifting

51
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:49.879
<v Speaker 7>today if they didn't want to. Oh Andy paj has

52
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:52.800
<v Speaker 7>drove in a run, win two for five, Michael Conforto

53
00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:56.560
<v Speaker 7>his first multi hit game since April second, Kei k

54
00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:00.080
<v Speaker 7>had a pinch hit single, Hey Sung Kim had a

55
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:03.479
<v Speaker 7>s Miguel Rojas had a single off the bench. The

56
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:07.199
<v Speaker 7>only two Dodger starters who were hitless today were Max Munty,

57
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:09.560
<v Speaker 7>who went oh for four with the strikeout on a walks,

58
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:13.159
<v Speaker 7>and James Autman, who went over three with two punchouts

59
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:16.000
<v Speaker 7>before coming out of the game for Chris Taylor late

60
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:20.240
<v Speaker 7>in this one. The Dodgers offense was on fire and

61
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:22.400
<v Speaker 7>we can see they can score runs in bunches.

62
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:23.599
<v Speaker 4>Just go back to the other night.

63
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:26.319
<v Speaker 7>Down three in the ninth, they put up a sixth

64
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:30.240
<v Speaker 7>spot in the ninth inning to come back and beat

65
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:34.120
<v Speaker 7>the Diamondbacks fourteen to eleven. In the two wins of

66
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.840
<v Speaker 7>this four game series, the Dodgers scored twenty two runs

67
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:39.960
<v Speaker 7>fourteen and eight.

68
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:41.280
<v Speaker 4>Wasn't a math.

69
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:43.879
<v Speaker 7>Major, but I know that's twenty two runs, the eight

70
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:47.080
<v Speaker 7>today and the eighteen hits. The eighteen hits tying a

71
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:51.319
<v Speaker 7>season high for the Dodgers as they win it. They're

72
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:54.800
<v Speaker 7>now twenty seven and fourteen on the season. Back atop

73
00:03:54.879 --> 00:03:57.120
<v Speaker 7>the NL West, a game in front of the San

74
00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:01.199
<v Speaker 7>Diego Padres, who lost earlier today to the Colorado Rockies,

75
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:04.039
<v Speaker 7>who I mentioned in the Clubhouse Show. After their win,

76
00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:06.759
<v Speaker 7>their seventh win of the season for the Rockies, they

77
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:08.840
<v Speaker 7>fired manager Buddy Black.

78
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:11.599
<v Speaker 4>Like that is going to change things, Like there's.

79
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:15.680
<v Speaker 7>Gonna be a sweeping change of emotion and talent level

80
00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:18.519
<v Speaker 7>across that clubhouse for the Rockies that all of a

81
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:21.920
<v Speaker 7>sudden they're gonna become a contender now in a playoff team. Please,

82
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:26.279
<v Speaker 7>they're seven to thirty three. Bud Black's been there what

83
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:30.959
<v Speaker 7>nine years. He's pretty much a five hundred or below

84
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:34.319
<v Speaker 7>manager in Colorado because he doesn't have any talent.

85
00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:38.920
<v Speaker 4>Any guys they had, I e. Nolan Arenado gone.

86
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:42.199
<v Speaker 7>They haven't really been able to develop any pitching in

87
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:45.120
<v Speaker 7>the history of that franchise. I know this isn't Rockies talk,

88
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:48.920
<v Speaker 7>But still I feel bad for Buddy Black, former Angels

89
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:53.720
<v Speaker 7>pitching coach, good guy San Diego guy, Buddy Black, and

90
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:55.959
<v Speaker 7>what he had to go through there and try to

91
00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:59.519
<v Speaker 7>year in a year out make something out of nothing

92
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:03.800
<v Speaker 7>in Colorado and just get beat down every year in

93
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:07.759
<v Speaker 7>the division. And it's his fault, Okay, so he'll take it,

94
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.480
<v Speaker 7>he'll get fired, But it's not Buddy Black's fault in Colorado.

95
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:15.160
<v Speaker 7>That is an absolute mess in the mile highest city.

96
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:15.879
<v Speaker 4>But that is their.

97
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:17.680
<v Speaker 7>Problem to deal with. The Dodgers will tee off on

98
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:19.680
<v Speaker 7>them the many times they played them the rest of

99
00:05:19.720 --> 00:05:20.000
<v Speaker 7>the season.

100
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:21.079
<v Speaker 4>They've already played him three.

101
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:23.199
<v Speaker 7>So what they've got to ten more head to head

102
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:26.480
<v Speaker 7>matchups in the NL West Divisional race there against the

103
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:30.399
<v Speaker 7>Colorado Rockies. Today the Dodgers take care of the Diamondbacks

104
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:35.079
<v Speaker 7>eight to one. How about Tony Gonslin five shutout Indians,

105
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:40.399
<v Speaker 7>three hits, four strikeouts, eighty four pitches. Got some help

106
00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:44.040
<v Speaker 7>from his defense. Will Smith with an absolute laser to

107
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:48.120
<v Speaker 7>second base with two outs in the fifth after Corbyn

108
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:51.120
<v Speaker 7>Carroll has walked to get to first base, and one

109
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:53.680
<v Speaker 7>of the fastest guys in baseball, you just assume he's

110
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:56.199
<v Speaker 7>gonna steal second base because everybody else steals bases off

111
00:05:56.199 --> 00:05:59.560
<v Speaker 7>the Dodgers Will Smith with an absolute laser to second

112
00:05:59.560 --> 00:06:02.240
<v Speaker 7>to throw him out and in the fifth inning, and

113
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:04.759
<v Speaker 7>that would be it for Tony Gonslin. You could not

114
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:07.279
<v Speaker 7>ask for much more from Tony Gonson th what he

115
00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:10.000
<v Speaker 7>has done in his three starts from coming back from

116
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.920
<v Speaker 7>Tommy John surgery. Now, he could have come back last October.

117
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:15.319
<v Speaker 7>We know that he even talked about he was ready

118
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:17.720
<v Speaker 7>to go if they needed him. They elected to save

119
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:20.519
<v Speaker 7>him here for twenty twenty five extra rests coming off

120
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:23.439
<v Speaker 7>to Tommy John surgery and extra offseason to get ready.

121
00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:26.720
<v Speaker 7>The back injuried in spring training while lifting weights set

122
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:29.600
<v Speaker 7>him back a few weeks and put him on the

123
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:33.199
<v Speaker 7>IL to start the season. But in his three starts

124
00:06:33.240 --> 00:06:35.519
<v Speaker 7>now he's gone at least five innings at all three.

125
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:38.480
<v Speaker 7>He's gone six in his last start against the Marlins,

126
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:43.279
<v Speaker 7>and he had seventeen strikeouts going into the game today.

127
00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:46.759
<v Speaker 7>Four more so, he's at twenty one strikeouts in three starts,

128
00:06:47.120 --> 00:06:48.120
<v Speaker 7>two to zero record.

129
00:06:49.240 --> 00:06:49.959
<v Speaker 4>Can't ask for.

130
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.800
<v Speaker 7>Much more from Tony Gonson than what you've gotten out

131
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:55.000
<v Speaker 7>of the three starts that he has given you since

132
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:57.120
<v Speaker 7>starting this season coming off the injured list.

133
00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:58.360
<v Speaker 4>In a few minutes, we'll get you.

155
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:37.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I hope they, I hope they.

156
00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:40.120
<v Speaker 2>I hope they don't get rid of him so quick,

157
00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:42.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, because he's such a good defensive third baseman.

158
00:07:42.480 --> 00:07:44.319
<v Speaker 2>You know, did you see that play did today with

159
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:45.079
<v Speaker 2>his bare hands?

160
00:07:45.160 --> 00:07:45.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

161
00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:46.720
<v Speaker 4>It was a nice bear play.

162
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:49.759
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it was very nicely done, Max Monty. You know,

163
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:53.240
<v Speaker 7>you just kind of hope he eventually flips the switch offensively.

164
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:57.079
<v Speaker 7>Oh for for today, Will another punch out now hitting

165
00:07:57.160 --> 00:07:59.879
<v Speaker 7>one ninety on the season, only slugging at to eighties.

166
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:02.560
<v Speaker 7>You got to get all those numbers up. If he's

167
00:08:02.600 --> 00:08:04.519
<v Speaker 7>gonna be a guy who's a home run threat like

168
00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:06.600
<v Speaker 7>he has been in his career, and that's what he

169
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.560
<v Speaker 7>provides to this lineup. He's not an average hitter. He's

170
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:11.040
<v Speaker 7>not a guy that you can put at the bottom

171
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.399
<v Speaker 7>of the lineup and you know, try to spray the

172
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:14.319
<v Speaker 7>ball around the field.

173
00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:17.439
<v Speaker 4>That's not what he is. He is a slug, power hitter.

174
00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:20.199
<v Speaker 7>He is baseball from five years ago, from three years ago,

175
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:23.439
<v Speaker 7>home run or bust. And that's kind of what he

176
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:25.560
<v Speaker 7>has built his career on. And it's not a bad thing.

177
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:29.560
<v Speaker 7>Will and I appreciate the phone call. Max Munty is

178
00:08:29.600 --> 00:08:33.120
<v Speaker 7>a slug guy. I mean he is a power hitting

179
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:37.279
<v Speaker 7>left handed bat for the Dodgers and has been ever

180
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:40.360
<v Speaker 7>since he burst onto the scene really in twenty eighteen

181
00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:43.320
<v Speaker 7>and twenty nineteen. He's a guy that's gonna hit you

182
00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:46.080
<v Speaker 7>twenty plus home run, maybe get you thirty plus, like

183
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:49.759
<v Speaker 7>he has twice for the Dodgers. He is a power hitter.

184
00:08:49.919 --> 00:08:52.279
<v Speaker 7>That's where his bread and butter is, and he needs

185
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:55.159
<v Speaker 7>to get those power numbers up, especially at the third

186
00:08:55.200 --> 00:08:59.000
<v Speaker 7>base position. And I mentioned Michael Confordo and I'll continue

187
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:01.919
<v Speaker 7>to mention him because he's been given an opportunity here

188
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:04.440
<v Speaker 7>to play every day in left field as another left

189
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:05.039
<v Speaker 7>handed bat.

190
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:08.639
<v Speaker 4>I hope he's turned the corner. He's hit the ball hard.

191
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:11.519
<v Speaker 7>On this road trip in Miami, didn't see the success

192
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:14.840
<v Speaker 7>as far as the ball falling in for hits. But

193
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:19.159
<v Speaker 7>today Michael Confordo his first extra base hit, a double

194
00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:22.120
<v Speaker 7>almost went out opposite way, his first extra base hit

195
00:09:22.120 --> 00:09:25.759
<v Speaker 7>since April fifth, and his first multi hit game for

196
00:09:25.840 --> 00:09:29.960
<v Speaker 7>the Dodger left fielder since April second. So maybe he's

197
00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:33.120
<v Speaker 7>trending and coming back around offensively.

198
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:36.360
<v Speaker 4>You like the hope. So for this Dodgers team, which tonight.

199
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:40.879
<v Speaker 7>In Arizona didn't necessarily need the bottom of the lineup again,

200
00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:43.639
<v Speaker 7>when you've got the power four the top of the lineup,

201
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:46.759
<v Speaker 7>including the big three of Otani, Betts, and Freeman and

202
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:50.399
<v Speaker 7>Will Smith throwing in today as the big four, it's

203
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:52.759
<v Speaker 7>gonna be hard to stop this Dodgers team. When they

204
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:56.039
<v Speaker 7>score seven runs, when they got eleven hits between them,

205
00:09:56.480 --> 00:09:59.120
<v Speaker 7>a couple of home runs, three doubles, it's a lot

206
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:02.480
<v Speaker 7>of offense to stop. And that's a lot of offense

207
00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:05.279
<v Speaker 7>put up on the scoreboard for any pitching staff. And

208
00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:07.720
<v Speaker 7>today Tony Gonsolin five shot out Indan, it's great to

209
00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:10.360
<v Speaker 7>see Jack Dryer back out there pitching two thirds of

210
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.279
<v Speaker 7>an Inningan benk Asparius gave out a two out double

211
00:10:13.320 --> 00:10:15.279
<v Speaker 7>in the seventh inning, the only run giving up in

212
00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:18.960
<v Speaker 7>the game. Today, Tanner Scott had pitched a scoreless eighth inning.

213
00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:21.720
<v Speaker 7>And then Matt Soer. I love Matt Suer at Righetti

214
00:10:21.799 --> 00:10:24.440
<v Speaker 7>High School in Santa Maria. It's aarready got a save

215
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:26.519
<v Speaker 7>on the season, and he's got a win that he

216
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:29.039
<v Speaker 7>picked up as well. In his short time up and

217
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:32.039
<v Speaker 7>down this year with the Dodgers, I mean, he has

218
00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:35.039
<v Speaker 7>been asked to pitching games that are blowouts. He's been

219
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:37.840
<v Speaker 7>asked to pitching games to eat up innings as a

220
00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:40.799
<v Speaker 7>middle reliever, and he has gone out there and done

221
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.320
<v Speaker 7>exactly that. He is pac man, just gobbling up outs

222
00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:46.679
<v Speaker 7>for the Dodgers, and nice to see him out there

223
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:49.320
<v Speaker 7>get an opportunity to pitch the ninth inning, a one

224
00:10:49.399 --> 00:10:52.360
<v Speaker 7>to two three inning for Matt Sower, who I really

225
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:54.440
<v Speaker 7>like out there, and I like his stuff. I like

226
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:56.960
<v Speaker 7>his makeup with his pitches, and with the injuries to

227
00:10:57.000 --> 00:10:59.679
<v Speaker 7>this Dodger bullpen, and who knows how long some of

228
00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:01.600
<v Speaker 7>these got are going to be before they come back.

229
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:04.240
<v Speaker 7>Matt Sour's gonna be one of these arms that you

230
00:11:04.279 --> 00:11:06.480
<v Speaker 7>didn't know him before, but you're gonna like him now

231
00:11:06.519 --> 00:11:08.279
<v Speaker 7>for what he's going to add to this Dodgers team.

232
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:10.960
<v Speaker 7>Eight six six nine eighty seven two five seven. Let's

233
00:11:10.960 --> 00:11:15.480
<v Speaker 7>head back out to Arizona. The manager Dave Roberts talking

234
00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:17.919
<v Speaker 7>about the win and maybe a little thought about Buddy

235
00:11:17.960 --> 00:11:19.519
<v Speaker 7>Black being fired by the Rockies.

236
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Really good team win.

237
00:11:22.639 --> 00:11:25.879
<v Speaker 8>I thought Tony on regular rest did a really nice job.

238
00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:29.399
<v Speaker 8>I thought he got better as the game went on,

239
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:35.000
<v Speaker 8>worked ahead. The first pitch strike percentage was really high,

240
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:38.720
<v Speaker 8>kept him off balance. I thought his secondary stuff was

241
00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:42.879
<v Speaker 8>was on point and gave us five huge innings and

242
00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:44.480
<v Speaker 8>then to be hat to pass it to the bullpen

243
00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:47.799
<v Speaker 8>was big today and still stay away from Kirby and

244
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:48.879
<v Speaker 8>just offensively.

245
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:50.679
<v Speaker 1>I thought we really took good at best today.

246
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:53.279
<v Speaker 4>It's no secret that Freddie Freeman is. Whether he's found

247
00:11:53.279 --> 00:11:56.279
<v Speaker 4>astride offensively has been fantastic. What is something that just

248
00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:57.320
<v Speaker 4>kind of stands out.

249
00:11:57.159 --> 00:11:57.600
<v Speaker 1>To you though?

250
00:11:57.600 --> 00:11:58.759
<v Speaker 4>Just with his at bats?

251
00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:02.639
<v Speaker 8>I just think he's relentless. And I'm sure you know,

252
00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:05.679
<v Speaker 8>obviously he's swinging a hot bat. I'm sure Mother's Day

253
00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:09.360
<v Speaker 8>certainly always means a lot to him in particular, and

254
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:12.080
<v Speaker 8>he carried us this road trip and he's.

255
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Been ailing, and you know, I thought, I remember.

256
00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:16.559
<v Speaker 8>Even before the trip started, when the trip started, we

257
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:18.440
<v Speaker 8>talking about giving him a day off at some point,

258
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:21.200
<v Speaker 8>but you know, he persevered and we needed every bit

259
00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:21.440
<v Speaker 8>of it.

260
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:24.960
<v Speaker 7>Are you surprised he's hitting three seventy six coming off

261
00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:25.720
<v Speaker 7>the ankle and everything.

262
00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:27.200
<v Speaker 1>That's where came with it, You know what?

263
00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:30.960
<v Speaker 8>I guess it's one of those things that I am.

264
00:12:30.960 --> 00:12:32.799
<v Speaker 8>But I think it's just a byproduct that he just

265
00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:35.720
<v Speaker 8>doesn't give anything away and he's just taking good at bats.

266
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:38.039
<v Speaker 1>And I looked up the other day and saw he

267
00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:39.039
<v Speaker 1>was hitting three sixteen.

268
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:42.240
<v Speaker 8>I had no idea, but kind of when you look

269
00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:44.759
<v Speaker 8>into it, it's just he's just really, like I said,

270
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:45.919
<v Speaker 8>he's just been relentless.

271
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:47.960
<v Speaker 5>You think he's surprised you think he was kind of

272
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:50.759
<v Speaker 5>expecting to be able to come back and be, you know,

273
00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:51.840
<v Speaker 5>as good as he has been.

274
00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:53.840
<v Speaker 1>In this last week. You know, I don't know. I

275
00:12:54.279 --> 00:12:56.360
<v Speaker 1>do know that we've talked about a new normal form.

276
00:12:56.399 --> 00:12:58.080
<v Speaker 8>I know he's not one hundred percent, but I do

277
00:12:58.120 --> 00:13:01.279
<v Speaker 8>feel that he's seeing the baseball well, swinging his strikes

278
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:01.879
<v Speaker 8>like he does.

279
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:04.200
<v Speaker 1>And I think you really understand how.

280
00:13:04.039 --> 00:13:07.120
<v Speaker 8>His body's moving right now with regards to his swing.

281
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:10.399
<v Speaker 7>You see, he's not one hundred percent, but we still

282
00:13:10.399 --> 00:13:11.200
<v Speaker 7>talk about the ankle.

283
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:12.399
<v Speaker 1>H we're still till with the ankle.

284
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:16.159
<v Speaker 8>But but he's moving really well, and so I think

285
00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 8>that he's doing a really nice job of sort of

286
00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:22.879
<v Speaker 8>playing with the governor managing it, you know, knowing when

287
00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:26.279
<v Speaker 8>to pick his spots, managers, working all that you've.

288
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:27.399
<v Speaker 1>Seen to be like this good.

289
00:13:27.559 --> 00:13:29.000
<v Speaker 7>I know last year was kind of frustrated with the

290
00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:30.519
<v Speaker 7>swing seem in the all season long.

291
00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:34.320
<v Speaker 8>It's you know, I can't remember him being this good

292
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:38.639
<v Speaker 8>for this long as far as the stretch. And yeah,

293
00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:40.759
<v Speaker 8>I mean I'm trying. I hope he doesn't overthink you,

294
00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:43.559
<v Speaker 8>which I'm sure he doesn't. But it's been a while

295
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:45.320
<v Speaker 8>that i've seen him disconsistent.

296
00:13:45.679 --> 00:13:48.480
<v Speaker 5>One part of what he's gone through physically almost contributes

297
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:50.559
<v Speaker 5>to that where you know he has to kind of

298
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:53.200
<v Speaker 5>put a little extra in to get through with the ankle.

299
00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:54.519
<v Speaker 4>And maybe now it's you.

300
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:57.639
<v Speaker 8>Know what, maybe that with the ankle that he's very

301
00:13:57.679 --> 00:14:01.080
<v Speaker 8>precise with his mechanics and trying to stay within himself.

302
00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:05.320
<v Speaker 8>He's already got a simple swing, simple approach, but this

303
00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:08.480
<v Speaker 8>might be something where you know, because of the right ankle,

304
00:14:08.960 --> 00:14:11.759
<v Speaker 8>that he is being more mindful than not trying to

305
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:13.159
<v Speaker 8>overswing or do too much.

306
00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:16.200
<v Speaker 7>Maybe, all right, there's Dave Roberts, Dodger manager, talking a

307
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:18.720
<v Speaker 7>lot about Tony Gonsolin and how he got better after

308
00:14:18.759 --> 00:14:20.840
<v Speaker 7>he changed his cleats. By the way, I want to

309
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:22.399
<v Speaker 7>make sure I bring that up again. He had his

310
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:25.519
<v Speaker 7>pink Mother's Day cleats on the first two innings and

311
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:28.200
<v Speaker 7>kind of kept looking down on the mound, just didn't

312
00:14:28.240 --> 00:14:30.240
<v Speaker 7>feel like he was getting the right grip on his

313
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:34.080
<v Speaker 7>landing front left leg. Maybe the cleats weren't were right,

314
00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:36.679
<v Speaker 7>and he said, yeah, in fact, afterwards, he just didn't

315
00:14:36.679 --> 00:14:38.679
<v Speaker 7>feel right. So we went back to his original cleats

316
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:40.559
<v Speaker 7>that he's been wearing and went back out there and

317
00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:42.879
<v Speaker 7>pitched three more innings, had a one two three fourth inning,

318
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:46.679
<v Speaker 7>including a couple of strikeouts, five shutout innings for Tony Gonson.

319
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:49.039
<v Speaker 7>You heard Dave Roberts talking about Freddy Freeman as well.

320
00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:51.799
<v Speaker 7>Freddie Freeman four for four, two doubles, a home run,

321
00:14:51.919 --> 00:14:55.240
<v Speaker 7>three RBI, now hitting him three seventy six. Dave Roberts

322
00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:58.559
<v Speaker 7>also was asked about Bud Black and commented on the

323
00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:02.080
<v Speaker 7>Rockies firing the Dodger manager, and this is via Bill

324
00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:05.879
<v Speaker 7>Plunkett of the Orange County Register. He called him a

325
00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.200
<v Speaker 7>mentor in his managing career and said quote, I'm bummed.

326
00:15:09.240 --> 00:15:13.360
<v Speaker 7>I'm disappointed. I don't think Casey Stingle could change the

327
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:16.240
<v Speaker 7>outcome of that ball club. And that's not the manager's fault,

328
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:19.159
<v Speaker 7>but obviously they felt they needed a change in voice

329
00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:22.480
<v Speaker 7>or direction. But for me, there's not many people that

330
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:25.840
<v Speaker 7>are better than Buddy Black. So yeah, that's very disappointing.

331
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:30.679
<v Speaker 7>It's certainly not his doing and I echo that, and

332
00:15:30.720 --> 00:15:33.279
<v Speaker 7>I absolutely agree. Buddy Black one of the great guys

333
00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:37.799
<v Speaker 7>in baseball, former player, coach, pitching coach, and now manager

334
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:41.240
<v Speaker 7>fired by the Colorado Rockies. We'll continue here on Dodger

368
00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:30.759
<v Speaker 7>Talk on this Mother's Day. Thanks for being with us

369
00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:35.720
<v Speaker 7>as you enjoy this hot Sunday afternoon. As the Dodgers

370
00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:38.279
<v Speaker 7>wrap up their ten game road trip, their longest of

371
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:41.160
<v Speaker 7>this season, tay two to three in Atlanta, two of

372
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:43.759
<v Speaker 7>three from the Marlins in Miami, and then they get

373
00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:46.839
<v Speaker 7>a four game split with the Arizona Diamondbacks. As they

374
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:49.680
<v Speaker 7>win it today eight to one over the Snakes, they

375
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:53.200
<v Speaker 7>tie a season high with eighteen hits as they now

376
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:56.400
<v Speaker 7>have a one game lead over the San Diego Padres

377
00:17:56.839 --> 00:17:59.799
<v Speaker 7>in the NL West, three games up on the Giants,

378
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:02.559
<v Speaker 7>who got swept, right, Colin, They got swept by the

379
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:06.640
<v Speaker 7>Minnesota Twins. How does that happen? Interesting? They lose three

380
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:10.640
<v Speaker 7>games to the Minnesota Twins, a Minnesota's Twins team that's.

381
00:18:10.440 --> 00:18:12.000
<v Speaker 4>Now won eight in a row.

382
00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:15.559
<v Speaker 7>Look out Twins over five hundred, but still sitting in

383
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:19.039
<v Speaker 7>fourth place in the Central Division of the American League.

384
00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:21.359
<v Speaker 7>The Diamonbacks with the loss today, now six games back

385
00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:24.599
<v Speaker 7>of the Dodgers and the Colorado Rockies minus Bud Black,

386
00:18:24.599 --> 00:18:27.599
<v Speaker 7>who they fired this afternoon seven and thirty three. They

387
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.200
<v Speaker 7>actually won a game today over the Padres. They are

388
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:34.680
<v Speaker 7>nineteen and a half games back in the NL West.

389
00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:37.960
<v Speaker 7>Just think the Dodgers and Padres. They don't square off

390
00:18:38.119 --> 00:18:41.759
<v Speaker 7>until June. That's the first time the Dodgers and Padres

391
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:43.960
<v Speaker 7>will go at it. And then they play like six

392
00:18:44.119 --> 00:18:47.519
<v Speaker 7>times in a two and a half week stretch in

393
00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:51.519
<v Speaker 7>San Diego and at Dodgers Stadium. So those series against

394
00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:54.039
<v Speaker 7>the Padres will come up and they'll be fast and

395
00:18:54.119 --> 00:18:56.640
<v Speaker 7>furious when they do get here next month. But the

396
00:18:56.640 --> 00:19:01.119
<v Speaker 7>Dodgers now back home Tuesday for a nine game homestand

397
00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:05.839
<v Speaker 7>three against the A's, three against the Angels, and three

398
00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:10.119
<v Speaker 7>against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and don't sleep on the athletics.

399
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:14.119
<v Speaker 7>The don't call me Oakland. We're not in Vegas yet,

400
00:19:14.359 --> 00:19:20.440
<v Speaker 7>We're in Sacramento. A's twenty one and twenty overall on

401
00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:23.319
<v Speaker 7>this season, and the Dodgers are gonna see one of

402
00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:28.720
<v Speaker 7>their young stud right handers, Gunner Hoglin, on Wednesday, and

403
00:19:28.799 --> 00:19:31.960
<v Speaker 7>that's a really good young A's team. Jacob Wilson at

404
00:19:31.960 --> 00:19:35.640
<v Speaker 7>a Grand Canyon University, Thousand Oaks High School. His dad

405
00:19:35.720 --> 00:19:39.000
<v Speaker 7>Jack coached him, and the other Max Munsey, who's playing

406
00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:42.720
<v Speaker 7>second base for the A's, they were teammates just a

407
00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:46.160
<v Speaker 7>couple of years ago at Thousand Oaks High School. Now,

408
00:19:46.240 --> 00:19:49.920
<v Speaker 7>Jacob Wilson, who is a stud hitting three forty eight

409
00:19:49.960 --> 00:19:53.599
<v Speaker 7>on the season at eight forty one ops, the shortstop

410

<v Speaker 7>A's visit Dodger Stadium Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday ten. It's available,

412
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:05.519
<v Speaker 7>by the way at Dodgers dot com. Justin in Santa Monica,

413
00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:08.119
<v Speaker 7>thanks for being patient. Welcome to this Mother's Day edition

414
00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:10.200
<v Speaker 7>of Dodger Talk. After an eight to one win over

415
00:20:10.240 --> 00:20:11.440
<v Speaker 7>the Snake. How you doing, Justin?

416
00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:14.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm good, Jim, Thanks for taking my call. You know,

417
00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:17.279
<v Speaker 2>and seeing that in his mother's day, you know, I

418
00:20:17.319 --> 00:20:20.400
<v Speaker 2>wanted to just pass on what some good motherly advice

419
00:20:20.440 --> 00:20:22.440
<v Speaker 2>that my mom would give me, which is, if I

420
00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:24.839
<v Speaker 2>give you something, really, if I give you something that's

421
00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:27.839
<v Speaker 2>important that's expensive, I want you to take care of it.

422
00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:30.720
<v Speaker 2>And with that said, I really want to address our

423
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:33.920
<v Speaker 2>training staff and the litany of injuries that we have

424
00:20:34.039 --> 00:20:37.720
<v Speaker 2>had this year going into last year. I kind of

425
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:40.279
<v Speaker 2>called about this before, but the head athletic trader, who's

426
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:43.039
<v Speaker 2>this is his third year and now you have Glas

427
00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:44.839
<v Speaker 2>Now hurt for a second year.

428
00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:45.240
<v Speaker 1>In a row.

429
00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:48.559
<v Speaker 7>It's not their probably, I know, justin I appreciate the

430
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:50.039
<v Speaker 7>phone call, but I'm not going to let you go

431
00:20:50.119 --> 00:20:53.680
<v Speaker 7>after the training staff of the Dodgers. Okay, Blake Snell

432
00:20:54.559 --> 00:20:59.480
<v Speaker 7>is not a pitcher who comes in and something happened

433
00:20:59.480 --> 00:21:03.200
<v Speaker 7>with him and it's blamed somebody for his injury. Blake

434
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:07.200
<v Speaker 7>Snell's arm and shoulder is barking. There has nothing to

435
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:09.799
<v Speaker 7>do with the training staff of the Dodgers. The injury

436
00:21:10.039 --> 00:21:13.720
<v Speaker 7>to Tyler Glass Now, I mean, last time I look,

437
00:21:13.799 --> 00:21:17.319
<v Speaker 7>Tyler glass Now is always hurt and when he's not hurt,

438
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:21.039
<v Speaker 7>he's really good. But the problem is he's always hurt.

439
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:24.119
<v Speaker 7>That's not the training staff of the Dodgers' fault, because

440
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:26.839
<v Speaker 7>that goes back to Tampa, that goes back.

441
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:29.480
<v Speaker 4>To Pittsburgh when he first came up in the big leagues.

442
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:34.200
<v Speaker 7>They use a lot of arms, that's.

443
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:33.880
<v Speaker 4>Not a question.

444
00:21:34.319 --> 00:21:37.640
<v Speaker 7>They use a lot of arms, and they go through pitchers,

445
00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:40.839
<v Speaker 7>and they ask pitchers to go out there and use

446
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:42.319
<v Speaker 7>and throw a lot of innings.

447
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:43.799
<v Speaker 4>That's not a surprise.

448
00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:48.400
<v Speaker 7>That's not a surprise to anybody, the injuries to these arms.

449
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:49.960
<v Speaker 4>There is something to look.

450
00:21:49.799 --> 00:21:53.559
<v Speaker 7>At across baseball for the fact that Gavin Stone, I mean,

451
00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:56.319
<v Speaker 7>I'll look at Gavin Stone. Example, Gavin Stone carried this

452
00:21:56.440 --> 00:21:59.480
<v Speaker 7>Dodgers team last year and threw a lot of innings,

453
00:21:59.519 --> 00:22:02.799
<v Speaker 7>the most in his major league career, most of his

454
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:04.880
<v Speaker 7>professional career at any level.

455
00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:07.279
<v Speaker 4>Gavin Stone was asked.

456
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:09.720
<v Speaker 7>To go out there every five days and did so

457
00:22:09.880 --> 00:22:13.279
<v Speaker 7>without a complaint, and then his arm just gave out

458
00:22:13.279 --> 00:22:15.519
<v Speaker 7>on him. His shoulder, I think is what it was

459
00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:21.640
<v Speaker 7>for Gavin Stone. Kyle Hurt, River, Ryan Immit, Shean. All

460
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:23.519
<v Speaker 7>guys come up and ask to do a thing, but

461
00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:27.880
<v Speaker 7>it's not an athletic training issue. It's not the strength

462
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:31.279
<v Speaker 7>and conditioning program of the Dodgers. There's a bigger issue

463
00:22:31.279 --> 00:22:34.000
<v Speaker 7>in baseball with the amount of injuries there are. How

464
00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:36.160
<v Speaker 7>many abductor injuries have you seen in baseball? Do you

465
00:22:36.160 --> 00:22:39.640
<v Speaker 7>even know where the abductor is? How many glute injuries

466
00:22:40.160 --> 00:22:44.519
<v Speaker 7>are there now in baseball, more than we've ever seen before.

467
00:22:46.279 --> 00:22:50.480
<v Speaker 7>I mean, there's a lot of issues across baseball with injuries.

468
00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:53.200
<v Speaker 7>And you can't just point the finger at the Dodgers

469
00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:55.319
<v Speaker 7>for the amount of injuries that are happening. It's an

470
00:22:55.319 --> 00:22:59.200
<v Speaker 7>epidemic across baseball. The amount of injuries that happened, and

471
00:22:59.240 --> 00:23:01.720
<v Speaker 7>I don't want to hear will look shorten the season

472
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:06.960
<v Speaker 7>because folks, for one hundred and fifty plus years, injuries

473
00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:09.599
<v Speaker 7>weren't a problem for guys and the travel was a

474
00:23:09.640 --> 00:23:13.079
<v Speaker 7>lot harder back then. The travel thirty years ago was

475
00:23:13.119 --> 00:23:17.039
<v Speaker 7>a lot harder for teams getting from city to city,

476
00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:20.559
<v Speaker 7>you know, not traveling in style and luxury like these

477
00:23:20.599 --> 00:23:23.960
<v Speaker 7>guys are. Not not that that prevents injuries, but it

478
00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:31.319
<v Speaker 7>certainly eases stress on travel and lifestyle and the wear

479
00:23:31.359 --> 00:23:36.359
<v Speaker 7>and tear of a season. But the Dodgers pitching staff

480
00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:39.519
<v Speaker 7>and the amount of injuries cannot be pointed at anybody

481
00:23:39.839 --> 00:23:43.920
<v Speaker 7>come on, that's insane to sit there and say the

482
00:23:43.960 --> 00:23:47.000
<v Speaker 7>amount of injuries are because they're training them some way,

483
00:23:47.200 --> 00:23:49.359
<v Speaker 7>or they're not training them some way, or look at

484
00:23:49.359 --> 00:23:49.960
<v Speaker 7>other teams.

485
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:51.559
<v Speaker 4>It's not the case.

486
00:23:51.880 --> 00:23:53.599
<v Speaker 7>The only thing you can say is the amount of

487
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:56.279
<v Speaker 7>innings these guys are pitched. There's a lot of usage

488
00:23:56.279 --> 00:23:59.720
<v Speaker 7>on arms. I ask you about Bruce dark Gratural, I'm

489
00:23:59.720 --> 00:24:04.160
<v Speaker 7>gonna just throw out him as an example. Bruce dark Graderol.

490
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:07.519
<v Speaker 7>The guy is built like a Bozuka. That's his name,

491
00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:12.319
<v Speaker 7>twenty six years old. Bruce dar Graderol is not thirty six, folks.

492
00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:17.240
<v Speaker 7>Bruce dar Graderol is twenty six years old and has

493
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:22.279
<v Speaker 7>been battling arm issues since he was with the Twins,

494
00:24:23.119 --> 00:24:27.039
<v Speaker 7>and he was traded for Kentamayida and came over a

495
00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:30.559
<v Speaker 7>deal after the twenty nineteen season, came to the Dodgers

496
00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:32.920
<v Speaker 7>in twenty twenty, burst onto the scene.

497
00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:34.680
<v Speaker 4>We all fell in love with them.

498
00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:38.400
<v Speaker 7>In the bubble down in Arlington for going back and

499
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:42.680
<v Speaker 7>forth with Tatissa. Machado pitched in thirty four games in

500
00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:47.240
<v Speaker 7>twenty one, forty six games in twenty two, sixty eight games.

501
00:24:47.519 --> 00:24:51.480
<v Speaker 7>He pitched out of the bullpen in twenty twenty three

502
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:54.920
<v Speaker 7>sixty seven and third innings, asked to do a lot

503
00:24:54.920 --> 00:24:57.279
<v Speaker 7>in twenty twenty three, came back a year ago, he

504
00:24:57.440 --> 00:24:59.279
<v Speaker 7>pitched seven innings a year ago.

505
00:25:00.640 --> 00:25:01.279
<v Speaker 4>What is it that?

506
00:25:01.519 --> 00:25:03.519
<v Speaker 7>And they had it was the hamstring or calf that

507
00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:07.279
<v Speaker 7>he injured. So what is it about Bruce darc graderol?

508
00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.160
<v Speaker 7>Is it somebody's fault that he keeps getting hurt? Is

509
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:14.000
<v Speaker 7>it his body shutting down? I mean, the guy is

510
00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:17.160
<v Speaker 7>a pretty impressive specimen when you look at him, six'

511
00:25:17.319 --> 00:25:21.680
<v Speaker 7>two two sixty, five built like an, ox can throw

512
00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:22.519
<v Speaker 7>one hundred miles an.

513
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:26.559
<v Speaker 4>Hour why does he keep getting? HURT i don't.

514
00:25:26.640 --> 00:25:29.519
<v Speaker 7>KNOW i don't know why he keeps getting hurt and

515
00:25:29.559 --> 00:25:32.240
<v Speaker 7>continues to have shoulder issues and its started the season

516
00:25:32.279 --> 00:25:33.079
<v Speaker 7>on this sixty day.

517
00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:35.079
<v Speaker 4>IL i don't point the.

518
00:25:35.079 --> 00:25:38.559
<v Speaker 7>Finger at the athletic training staff or their strength and conditioning.

519
00:25:38.599 --> 00:25:43.960
<v Speaker 7>Coaches it's just not their. Fault the amount of innings

520
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:46.720
<v Speaker 7>these guys. Pitch that is the only thing you can look.

521
00:25:46.759 --> 00:25:49.960
<v Speaker 7>At do you think these guys AND i, say these,

522
00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:53.680
<v Speaker 7>guys these, owners these, teams and not to go out

523
00:25:53.720 --> 00:25:55.480
<v Speaker 7>on a soapbox here in a, rant but just real

524
00:25:55.559 --> 00:25:59.759
<v Speaker 7>quickly you talk about it protecting your. Investment these guys

<v Speaker 7>of baseball because they're making so much. Money because a

527
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:09.680
<v Speaker 7>guy is making basically a million dollars a start if

528
00:26:09.720 --> 00:26:11.559
<v Speaker 7>he is one of the top pitchers in. Baseball and

529
00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:14.079
<v Speaker 7>that's what these guys are. Getting these, pictures a million

530
00:26:14.119 --> 00:26:16.119
<v Speaker 7>dollars a. Start when you look at, it guy's getting

531
00:26:16.119 --> 00:26:19.240
<v Speaker 7>paid forty million. Dollars he's making thirty plus. Starts, yeah

532
00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:23.279
<v Speaker 7>that's over a million dollars a start for upper, echelon

533
00:26:23.480 --> 00:26:24.319
<v Speaker 7>top pitchers in.

534
00:26:24.359 --> 00:26:27.440
<v Speaker 4>Baseball, so, yeah you're gonna baby these.

535
00:26:27.440 --> 00:26:30.559
<v Speaker 7>Guys AND i, say, baby you're gonna side, on you

536
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:33.319
<v Speaker 7>gonna you're you're on the side of. Caution when the

537
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:35.599
<v Speaker 7>arm's barking a little, bit there's a little bit of.

538
00:26:35.640 --> 00:26:37.759
<v Speaker 7>STRAIN i, mean back in the, day it used to

539
00:26:37.759 --> 00:26:41.279
<v Speaker 7>be pitched through, it dead. Arm let's dead, arm pitch through.

540
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:45.039
<v Speaker 7>It now it's shut a guy. Down let's see how

541
00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:47.839
<v Speaker 7>it reacts to some. Treatment we got a lot invested

542
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:49.440
<v Speaker 7>in this. Guy the last thing we want to do

543
00:26:49.559 --> 00:26:52.039
<v Speaker 7>is lose him for a, season lose them for a year.

544
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:53.000
<v Speaker 4>And a half because Of Tommy.

545
00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:57.160
<v Speaker 7>John so there is a lot of protection you could

546
00:26:57.200 --> 00:27:01.200
<v Speaker 7>even make the case there's over protection on players in

547
00:27:01.240 --> 00:27:04.480
<v Speaker 7>professional sports now because of how much money is invested

548
00:27:04.519 --> 00:27:05.240
<v Speaker 7>in pay to these.

549
00:27:05.279 --> 00:27:09.079
<v Speaker 4>Players and if you're an owner and you're investing six

550
00:27:09.160 --> 00:27:13.240
<v Speaker 4>million dollars in a, Reliever, Yeah i'm gonna look at this. Asay,

551
00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:14.079
<v Speaker 4>okay Maybe i'm.

552
00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:15.960
<v Speaker 7>Gonna shut him down for ten to fifteen days on

553
00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:19.039
<v Speaker 7>the il because his arm's a little tight AND i

554
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:21.480
<v Speaker 7>don't want to get worse because he's just pitched in

555
00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:24.000
<v Speaker 7>seven games in the last four seven of the last

556
00:27:24.000 --> 00:27:27.200
<v Speaker 7>fourteen games that we've played. In, okay So i'm gonna

557
00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:31.400
<v Speaker 7>shut him down realizing That i'm not gonna risk losing

558
00:27:31.480 --> 00:27:33.640
<v Speaker 7>him for the second half of the season just Because

559
00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:35.640
<v Speaker 7>i've used him a lot here in the twenty one

560
00:27:35.720 --> 00:27:38.240
<v Speaker 7>day stretch or two week, stretch whatever it. Is so,

561
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:40.839
<v Speaker 7>yeah there is a lot of protection of these players

562
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:44.119
<v Speaker 7>and the overall injuries that are happening more and more.

563
00:27:44.160 --> 00:27:47.359
<v Speaker 7>Now that is a great. Study AND i guarantee you

564
00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:50.359
<v Speaker 7>if there was an answer to why there are so

565
00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:54.039
<v Speaker 7>many injuries and a solution to how to fix it

566
00:27:54.359 --> 00:27:57.480
<v Speaker 7>with all these arm, INJURIES i think there would be a,

567
00:27:58.119 --> 00:28:04.400
<v Speaker 7>race a sprint to see who can get there fast

568
00:28:04.440 --> 00:28:07.720
<v Speaker 7>to get that, answer to get that magic, remedy to

569
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:10.480
<v Speaker 7>find out the solution and then implement. It because the

570
00:28:10.559 --> 00:28:14.319
<v Speaker 7>last thing you want as an, owner as a professional

571
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:16.839
<v Speaker 7>league is to have your top players, hurt to have

572
00:28:16.920 --> 00:28:19.599
<v Speaker 7>a lot of stars, hurt to have guys missing games

573
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:20.000
<v Speaker 7>because of.

574
00:28:20.039 --> 00:28:22.799
<v Speaker 4>Injuries it's bad for your, product it's bad for the.

575
00:28:22.880 --> 00:28:26.000
<v Speaker 7>Game you're gonna get people who lose interest in your

576
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:28.240
<v Speaker 7>sport because your stars are all. Hurt And i'm not

577
00:28:28.279 --> 00:28:29.839
<v Speaker 7>saying that all the stars are hurt right, now but

578
00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:32.279

<v Speaker 7>a spot for him at the major leagues right now

603
00:29:42.319 --> 00:29:45.079
<v Speaker 7>with The dodgers as a. Catcher there is a roadblock

604
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:48.960
<v Speaker 7>by the name Of Will, smith and there's also a

605
00:29:49.039 --> 00:29:52.680
<v Speaker 7>roadblock With Austin. Barnes and the only way right now

606
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:55.480
<v Speaker 7>we're gonna See Dalton rushing get to the major leagues

607
00:29:55.759 --> 00:29:59.079

<v Speaker 4>andrey to.

610
00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:05.559

00:30:05.920 --> 00:30:08.799
<v Speaker 7>to back, up to sit on the bench and only

612

00:30:58.799 --> 00:31:02.359
<v Speaker 7>saying could be interesting to see if he is something

630
00:31:02.400 --> 00:31:05.759
<v Speaker 7>The dodgers would be willing to trade at the deadline

631
00:31:05.799 --> 00:31:08.079
<v Speaker 7>because of just a roadblock.

632

645
00:31:43.240 --> 00:31:45.839
<v Speaker 7>lines up perfectly to get a start that. Day today

649
00:31:57.440 --> 00:32:01.920
<v Speaker 7>Pitches AND i look At clayton his, age AND i

650
00:32:01.920 --> 00:32:04.200
<v Speaker 7>look At Clayton kershaw the last two, years AND i

651
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:04.720
<v Speaker 7>had to do a.

652
00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:06.160
<v Speaker 4>Double take BECAUSE i totally forgot about.

653
00:32:06.200 --> 00:32:10.799
<v Speaker 7>This Clayton kershaw last Year dodger fans only made seven

654
00:32:10.839 --> 00:32:16.400
<v Speaker 7>starts in twenty twenty. Four he had shoulder surgery after

655
00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:19.039
<v Speaker 7>the twenty three. Season you remember that he had shoulder,

656
00:32:19.079 --> 00:32:23.039
<v Speaker 7>surgery came, back did not make a start for The

657
00:32:23.039 --> 00:32:27.680
<v Speaker 7>dodgers last year Until july twenty, fifth made seven starts

658
00:32:27.759 --> 00:32:33.359
<v Speaker 7>and then was shut Down Labor day, weekend seven starts

659
00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:36.200
<v Speaker 7>all of last, year and now was making his way.

660
00:32:36.240 --> 00:32:40.799
<v Speaker 7>Back it's been a long year plus For Clayton. Kershaw

661
00:32:41.079 --> 00:32:42.759
<v Speaker 7>when you think about, It it's not like he got

662
00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:45.119
<v Speaker 7>thirty starts a year ago and then had the tow

663
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:50.039
<v Speaker 7>knee surgery and now coming. Back he is now basically

664
00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:53.559
<v Speaker 7>a year and a half removed from his shoulder surgery

665
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:56.319
<v Speaker 7>and only seven starts underneath him at the big. Leagues

666
00:32:57.359 --> 00:32:59.680
<v Speaker 7>i'm interested to see What Clayton kershaw's got left in

667
00:32:59.680 --> 00:33:02.359
<v Speaker 7>the tank now moving, forward how anxious he is to

668
00:33:02.359 --> 00:33:04.920
<v Speaker 7>get back out there on the, mound and how much

669
00:33:04.960 --> 00:33:08.720
<v Speaker 7>of a you, know a shot of adrenaline he could

670
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:12.680
<v Speaker 7>be for This dodger rotation moving, forward because it'd be

671
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:15.319
<v Speaker 7>great to Get Clayton kershaw back pitching every five. Days

672
00:33:15.599 --> 00:33:18.839
<v Speaker 7>lengthen this rotation a little bit to go With sazaki

673
00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:22.839
<v Speaker 7>And yamamoto And Landon knack And Dustin may And Tony,

674
00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:25.279
<v Speaker 7>gonsolin The dodgers can finally get to be in a

675
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:28.440
<v Speaker 7>six man rotation which they are built up to be

676
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:32.039
<v Speaker 7>With yamamoto And sasaki only pitching one day a, week

677
00:33:32.359 --> 00:33:35.200
<v Speaker 7>you've got to have four other starters to fill the

678
00:33:35.319 --> 00:33:37.720
<v Speaker 7>void to have a six man, rotation and now you

679
00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:41.519
<v Speaker 7>Add Clayton kershaw potentially Next sunday when he can be

680
00:33:41.559 --> 00:33:42.720

727
00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:31.239
<v Speaker 7>You when position players start pitching more and, more when

728
00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:34.159
<v Speaker 7>they really adapted the rule, now so it's got to

729
00:36:34.199 --> 00:36:34.480
<v Speaker 7>be a.

730
00:36:34.440 --> 00:36:36.920
<v Speaker 4>Ten run rule or at home an eight run.

731
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:39.440
<v Speaker 7>Deficit or something like. That but it's been more and

732
00:36:39.519 --> 00:36:41.840
<v Speaker 7>more in the last few. Years and it happens late in,

733
00:36:41.880 --> 00:36:44.519
<v Speaker 7>games certainly when games are out of, reach and you

734
00:36:44.559 --> 00:36:46.360
<v Speaker 7>know at that point you don't want anybody to have

735
00:36:46.440 --> 00:36:48.719
<v Speaker 7>to be used in a, situation and certainly you just

736
00:36:48.719 --> 00:36:51.239
<v Speaker 7>want to get out of there as fast as possible

737
00:36:51.280 --> 00:36:53.599
<v Speaker 7>with limited damage the rest of the. Way and what

738
00:36:53.800 --> 00:36:56.719
<v Speaker 7>is usually a blowout situation ten runs or. More so

739
00:36:57.000 --> 00:36:58.679
<v Speaker 7>that's why you see it more and more, now is he?

740
