Speaker 1: And we continue on fred Rogan, Rodney Pete a sports.
Speaker 1: All Right, Dodgers back home tonight. They've got Brian wu
Speaker 1: pitching for Seattle. He's pretty good, so I think it'll
Speaker 1: be an interesting matchup. We have questions to answer about
Speaker 1: Freddy Freeman, about Tyler Glass. Now is David there yet?
Speaker 1: Is Dave ready to go? Not yet? Okay, We're getting
Speaker 1: David on the phone. He will have the very latest
Speaker 1: about the situation. And the Freddie Freeman one to me,
Speaker 1: Rodney is I think the one we have to keep
Speaker 1: an eye on. Now, Wow, I just heard another one
Speaker 1: that we got to keep an eye on. Fred That
Speaker 1: Austin Barnes. It's got a toe injury. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: let's get let's get David Vassay on and it's just
Speaker 1: start knocking them off the list. Dave, good afternoon, Hey guys.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not only are the Dodgers a little beat up,
Speaker 2: but another long night on the tarmac in the Saint
Speaker 2: Louis airport. The Dodger plane was on the tarmac for
Speaker 2: four plus hours before they took off. In fact, the
Speaker 2: Dodgers had to switch planes last night in Saint Louis
Speaker 2: because once they boarded their team charter. The radar system
Speaker 2: on the plane was not working. They tried to get
Speaker 2: a mechanic to fix it. They had to wait for
Speaker 2: another plane to land from Chicago at around eight o'clock
Speaker 2: Central time, so they did not arrive in Los Angeles
Speaker 2: till about midnight this morning.
Speaker 1: Well, you would think if it's a charter flight, that
Speaker 1: thing would be pretty pretty pretty put together, right, You
Speaker 1: wouldn't have to sit on the when mechanical issues happened,
Speaker 1: Fred or something.
Speaker 3: Things happened.
Speaker 2: Things happened, Fred.
Speaker 1: Yeah, come on, I'm just saying it. With the Ferrari, Fred,
Speaker 1: things go wrong.
Speaker 2: At least it wasn't the nightmare of being stuck in
Speaker 2: Newark Airport or on the plane in Newark for like
Speaker 2: ten plus hours.
Speaker 3: That ain't good. No good.
Speaker 1: Hey, David just learned about Austin barn What can you
Speaker 1: tell us about him?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, where'd you learn that? Read my tweet?
Speaker 3: Yes I did.
Speaker 4: Well.
Speaker 1: Hey, anybody listening, you better follow David Basset for the
Speaker 1: up to date stuff going on.
Speaker 3: He has dialed.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Rodney, I appreciate the love. But yeah, yesterday
Speaker 2: after the game, not only did Austin Barnes take a
Speaker 2: bat off the back of his head on the follow
Speaker 2: through swing of Contrarast, the Cardinals catcher. But also he
Speaker 2: took a foul ball off his big left toe in
Speaker 2: the third inning, and after we were done talking to
Speaker 2: him in the clubhouse, he called me over and he said,
Speaker 2: check this out. And his big toe was bleeding profusely
Speaker 2: and it was in major pain and he wasn't sure
Speaker 2: if it was broken or not. No word on whether
Speaker 2: or not the Dodgers have done any scans on the
Speaker 2: big toe. But there is a chance he may have
Speaker 2: to go on the IL. And that's the reason why
Speaker 2: there was a report that Hunter fiducca is here in
Speaker 2: Los Angeles, and I can confirm Hunter Fiduccia is at
Speaker 2: Dodgers Stadium on the taxi squad as of now, in
Speaker 2: case the Dodgers do decide to place Barnes on the IL.
Speaker 1: All right, now, what can you tell us about Freddie Freeman? A.
Speaker 2: No word on Freddy Freeman either today he was scheduled
Speaker 2: to have a CT scan on that right middle finger.
Speaker 2: The Dodgers obviously have moved up activating Max Munsey from
Speaker 2: tomorrow to today, so Munseie and Tommy Edmund will be
Speaker 2: active for tonight's game. Months he was taking ground balls
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas yesterday where Oklahoma City was playing, because
Speaker 2: they may need him there tonight if the Dodgers a
Speaker 2: cannot put Freeman on the field or b even go
Speaker 2: to the extent of I eling Freeman. So you know,
Speaker 2: yesterday Freddie's right middle finger swelled up even more and
Speaker 2: he could not move it as well as he could
Speaker 2: even in the ninth inning of last night. So that
Speaker 2: was a big issue, and that's the reason why they're
Speaker 2: taking a closer look. The X rays were negative, but
Speaker 2: they wanted to get a little deeper exam to see
Speaker 2: if there's any micro fracture in that right middle finger.
Speaker 2: But the good news, silver lining is if he does
Speaker 2: go on the ten day injured list, the Dodgers have
Speaker 2: only seven games within that span, so he wouldn't miss
Speaker 2: a lot of time.
Speaker 1: Dave, what can you tell us about Edmund? How was
Speaker 1: he performing in the miners? What do we expect when
Speaker 1: he gets here if he's active tonight.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, it's one thing he did perform well
Speaker 2: in the miners, But keep in mind, guys, he hasn't
Speaker 2: played in a major league game all season long. And
Speaker 2: the Dodgers aren't counting on him to be a big
Speaker 2: part of the bottom third of their lineup and to
Speaker 2: play a leak defense in center field. So you have
Speaker 2: to take that all into account and realize tonight will
Speaker 2: be his opening day while everybody else has played already
Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty something games. So that's going to
Speaker 2: be interesting to watch. He's a baseball player through and through.
Speaker 2: He's a guy that puts that to ball. So that's
Speaker 2: the reason why the Dodgers have been coveting, had been
Speaker 2: for quite some time.
Speaker 3: So, Dave, did you say so?
Speaker 1: Max Munsey is going to come back and possibly play
Speaker 1: first base.
Speaker 2: Freddie Freeman does not play tonight, and if the Dodgers
Speaker 2: decide to put Freddy on the IL in the next
Speaker 2: couple of days, that's where Munsey will play until Freddie returns.
Speaker 3: Nice. Interesting, interesting, I love it all right.
Speaker 1: So, Dave, Mookie playing in right field obviously makes the catch.
Speaker 1: If you're a cardinal, Fanny didn't catch it. But if
Speaker 1: you're everybody else, he caught it.
Speaker 3: We don't care.
Speaker 1: That's a nice little smile on his face. We talked earlier.
Speaker 1: Mookie just wants to play. He can't wait to be back.
Speaker 1: He's playing well, we continue to see him in right
Speaker 1: field given the fact that Gavin Lux has been red
Speaker 1: hot with the bat, is that where we're gonna see
Speaker 1: MOOKI probably.
Speaker 2: The rest of the year, no doubt, Rodney. And that's
Speaker 2: the reason why all this roster cheff shuffling has occurred,
Speaker 2: and part of the reason why Jason Hayward is now
Speaker 2: a bench player because Gavin Lucks started to come alive
Speaker 2: the second half of this season. If Gavin Lux was
Speaker 2: swinging the bat the way he was the first half
Speaker 2: of the year, he might be on the bench and
Speaker 2: Mookie Bets might be your second baseman. But because of
Speaker 2: the way Lux has swung the bat and the way
Speaker 2: he's played exceptional defense, the Dodgers needed Mookie Bets in
Speaker 2: right field because outside of Tia Oscar Hernandez, they have
Speaker 2: gotten virtually nothing offensively out of their right fielders this season.
Speaker 1: I think it was heartening, Dave to see the way
Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw pitched.
Speaker 2: Would you agree it's remarkable? Fred? I mean, if you
Speaker 2: look at this last road trip, the Dodgers won four
Speaker 2: games and Clayton Kershaw won two of those four and
Speaker 2: yesterday pitched six scoreless innings. This is a guy that
Speaker 2: is eight months removed from major shoulder surgery and he's
Speaker 2: going out there probably not feeling the greatest with other
Speaker 2: parts of his body at this stage of his career.
Speaker 2: But even Dave Roberts said after the game yesterday, other
Speaker 2: younger pitchers on this staff should take note that you
Speaker 2: can still pitch even though you're not feeling one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that Dave, and he was honest with himself. I've
Speaker 1: heard him a couple of times talk about, listen, I
Speaker 1: don't have the stuff I used to have. I don't
Speaker 1: have the velocity. I don't have this and that. But
Speaker 1: what I can do is work on my command. And
Speaker 1: when you talk about younger pitch, you're talking about like
Speaker 1: guys like Bobby Miller and Walker Bueher who still have
Speaker 1: velocity but there's not hitting their spots. But to see
Speaker 1: Clayton and to realize and for him to have to
Speaker 1: self evaluate himself and say, listen, I don't have that anymore,
Speaker 1: but I can still pitch, and he proved it. That
Speaker 1: is a I mean, seriously, a testament to Clayton Kershaw
Speaker 1: how great he is.
Speaker 2: I don't think Dave Roberts will stopping with those guys.
Speaker 2: I mean, virtually everybody on this staff is younger than Kershaw,
Speaker 2: so you could talk about even guys like glass Now
Speaker 2: and Yamamoto. I feel like he was sending a message
Speaker 2: to as.
Speaker 1: Well, and why aren't we going to see Yamamoto?
Speaker 2: Well, he only threw seventeen pitches in his simulated game
Speaker 2: a couple of days ago. The plan is to have
Speaker 2: him do that two more times, where he goes a
Speaker 2: little bit further in those simulated games, and from there
Speaker 2: they'll have a discussion on whether or not he'll pitch
Speaker 2: a rehab game or whether or not the Dodgers will
Speaker 2: just put him in their rotation. I feel like the
Speaker 2: latter is more likely.
Speaker 1: Hey day, we're at August nineteenth, obviously down the home
Speaker 1: stretch of the season, the regular season, three games up
Speaker 1: both Arizona and San Diego. Kind of right there, is
Speaker 1: it pretty resigned with the guys in the clubhouse that
Speaker 1: this is going to be a dog fight all the
Speaker 1: way through to the end.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that, Rodney. The one thing that I've
Speaker 2: gotten a sense of talking to the players is that
Speaker 2: this is a good thing to even be pushed in
Speaker 2: August by the Padres and Diamondbacks. Talking to Clayton Kershaw
Speaker 2: after his start in Milwaukee, he believes this team getting
Speaker 2: healthy this week is just about to take off. And
Speaker 2: that's a guy that usually has a great pulse on
Speaker 2: the team. So I feel like they appreciate that this
Speaker 2: may help them still stay sharp as they get closer
Speaker 2: to October. But they still believe that by the end
Speaker 2: of it. Uh, they're they're going to have a comfortable
Speaker 2: lead the final week of the season.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, Dave, thanks for coming on. Oh one
Speaker 1: other thing, we dealt with the Mitch last hour. You
Speaker 1: know Mitch who calls Dodger.
Speaker 2: Talk, Uh Mitch in New Jersey, that's the Mitch.
Speaker 1: And uh he basically told us that he had been banned,
Speaker 1: banned Dave, and I said, you haven't been banned from anything.
Speaker 1: We might not take your calls all the time, but
Speaker 1: you're not banned. Did you ban him?
Speaker 2: Not at all?
Speaker 3: Fred, exactly. That was my point.
Speaker 2: It's not a it's not a right to come on
Speaker 2: any show. It's a privilege. You got to bring your
Speaker 2: a game and if you uh don't, then you're moved
Speaker 2: down the list.
Speaker 1: There you go, all right, Dave, thank you wanted to
Speaker 1: clear that up.
Speaker 3: Thank you. You know, Mitch heard that. He's listening. Step
Speaker 3: it up. He's still on home.
Speaker 2: And does Mitch really live in New Jersey? I feel
Speaker 2: like that's a little just genuous as well.
Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing, Dave, you don't want to ask
Speaker 1: that because if you said where.
Speaker 3: Do you live? You get a thirty minute answer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty minutes later you've learned about his two year
Speaker 1: old grandson.
Speaker 2: I'll leave that to you guys.
Speaker 1: All right, thanks Dave, goodbye, David. There he goes David Vass.
Speaker 1: I knew Mitch was not banned, right.
Speaker 3: No, we wouldn't ban Nobody on our station would ban Mitch.
Speaker 3: Is that what we do? No band, Mitch?
Speaker 1: You know, I mean if you, if you, if Mitch
Speaker 1: calls seven straight days, he may not take his call
Speaker 1: on the eighth.
Speaker 3: But banning him, no.
Speaker 1: If he called seven straight days, to be honest, we
Speaker 1: might not take his call for seven straight days after that,
Speaker 1: you mean no, I mean even he might not true?
Speaker 1: He true true? That is that that is true. We
Speaker 1: might even take it. But he's not been banned. I
Speaker 1: don't think maybe Petro's some money of band on somebody.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: We never banned anybody, have we No? No, no, I
Speaker 1: don't think we have.
Speaker 3: I don't think so.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 1: So you know, we welcome everybody here. We welcome all opinions,
Speaker 1: We welcome everybody's view. We don't we don't.
Speaker 3: Ban people on this show. I don't know.
Speaker 1: All right, I just wanted to clear that up. Got
Speaker 1: it cleared up a little bit, all right, thanks, Gret.
Speaker 1: Uh you watch a little preseason football or no? No, no,
Speaker 1: not yet watch No, I'm going too much into the
Speaker 1: little league baseball. All right, So that's good. Since you're
Speaker 1: not watching, we'll talk about it.
Speaker 3: Good.
Speaker 1: I didn't watch when I played, Fred, What what makes
Speaker 1: you think I'm gonna watch?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna say. We got to go
Speaker 1: back to when you played. All right, yeah, yeah that's next.
Speaker 3: Ah, let's go winding down on a Monday.
Speaker 1: Why you got to look on your face red? No nothing, nothing,
Speaker 1: no no no. Uh So over the weekend, the Rams
Speaker 1: beat the Chargers in uh yet another preseason game. Yay,
Speaker 1: all right, that's my point, that's my point. Uh So
Speaker 1: everybody gets really excited and uh football's here. Well, it's
Speaker 1: not really football. It's preseason football. And in preseason football,
Speaker 1: you really don't get to see anybody that you're going
Speaker 1: to see truly. I mean, the linemen work, but the
Speaker 1: skill guys don't play a lot. Rodney, as people get
Speaker 1: ready for football. As a guy that played and had
Speaker 1: a very successful career, does the preseason mean much to
Speaker 1: some guys fighting more?
Speaker 3: Not anymore? Fred, It doesn't really. I mean it used to.
Speaker 1: I feel like it used to, and yes, to guys
Speaker 1: fighting for a position, fighting for a spot. You know,
Speaker 1: it's the reason why you're seeing more and more scrimmages lately,
Speaker 1: because I think they're getting more evaluation out of these
Speaker 1: scrimmages than they are a preseason games because not many
Speaker 1: people are playing in preseason games.
Speaker 3: So if you are a you.
Speaker 1: Know, uh rush in a defensive end and you're rushing
Speaker 1: the passer, yet you're going up against the third string
Speaker 1: offensive tackle, is that you're really getting a real evaluation
Speaker 1: of how you're playing. I mean, if you're the first
Speaker 1: number one pick in the draft and you happen to
Speaker 1: be a receiver and you're going against the you know,
Speaker 1: the third team cornerback and you're beating.
Speaker 3: Them up alive.
Speaker 1: I mean, are we really going to get excited about
Speaker 1: that because the starters are not anymore?
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just I don't know what it means.
Speaker 3: It used to be where when I played.
Speaker 1: It was starters played like the first quarter of the
Speaker 1: first two preseason games, and then the third preseason game
Speaker 1: was you played at least a half and a lot
Speaker 1: of times into the third quarter starters did and and
Speaker 1: that was like universal with every team. That was kind
Speaker 1: of like the norm and the rule, and everybody kind
Speaker 1: of did that, and you talk to other coaches and
Speaker 1: teams it's like, yeah, we're gonna play our starters to
Speaker 1: the halftime and then we'll take them out.
Speaker 3: Or you got together and said, okay, we'll.
Speaker 1: Play the first series of the third quarter. Then we're
Speaker 1: gonna take our guys out and put in backups. And
Speaker 1: you and the other one, you know, each head coach
Speaker 1: talked to each other until you got that under under control,
Speaker 1: so you really found out what what teams were like.
Speaker 1: And then you then none of the starters played in
Speaker 1: the fourth preseason game. That was just to get you know,
Speaker 1: those last looks of guys. But now it just it
Speaker 1: feels like it's really superfluous. The pre season is just
Speaker 1: something that they're doing just to do. I mean, I really,
Speaker 1: I mean how many they have now?
Speaker 3: Three?
Speaker 1: I don't know how many they even have now? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it's three, right, should never be more. I
Speaker 1: should definitely definitely be no more than two. But it's just,
Speaker 1: you know, and I don't know why fans want to
Speaker 1: go to preseason games. I don't know why, you know,
Speaker 1: unless you're like in Green Bay where there's nothing else
Speaker 1: to do and they live all year long waiting for
Speaker 1: the Packers to play again. But I don't know why
Speaker 1: fans want to go to preseason games because you're not
Speaker 1: really seeing the team. So nobody in a preseason game
Speaker 1: is going to earn a job. No that's not true. No, okay,
Speaker 1: so they can in a preseason game, you can. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's there's there's a scenario for everything. You know, if
Speaker 1: there's a question between you know, two running backs and
Speaker 1: you know they're they're playing and it's not the starting
Speaker 1: running back and you're you're wondering who's you backup gonna
Speaker 1: be and there are three guys competing for that, they're
Speaker 1: gonna play all preseason games so yeah, you're gonna evaluate
Speaker 1: those guys on all the three preseason games and see
Speaker 1: what they how they do. So, yeah, they're guys earning jobs,
Speaker 1: you know, in in in preseason. But to figure out
Speaker 1: how your team is going to do or get a
Speaker 1: good evaluation of your team during preseason, no, that's not
Speaker 1: That's not what happened.
Speaker 3: Individual makeups.
Speaker 1: You know, two or three spots here and there on
Speaker 1: the team, you know, figuring out that if that's gonna be,
Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna cut this guy and keep this guy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that happens, and occasionally on on with with a few
Speaker 1: different spots, but overall, getting a true evaluation of your
Speaker 1: team is not happening in preseason. Okay, So that being said,
Speaker 1: Rams beat the Chargers in preseason. Let's today's preseason football report. Yes, no, no,
Speaker 1: there was a proposal thread at that game that didn't
Speaker 1: go well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, do you see that.
Speaker 1: I heard about it. I heard about it too, and
Speaker 1: I saw Adam set a note on it, and then
Speaker 1: I looked it up and yeah, yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: what's come of it afterwards because I didn't follow up.
Speaker 1: But yeah, poor guy was you know, it was a
Speaker 1: kiss cam that was going around the stadium. You know
Speaker 1: those kiss cam they do it in every sport, and
Speaker 1: they went around to him and he was like, hold on,
Speaker 1: I got something special. And he got down on one
Speaker 1: knee to propose to the girl and the girl was
Speaker 1: like no, no, no, don't do that.
Speaker 3: Don't Clearly she was like, no, this is not the
Speaker 3: right time, and I may not say yes. And so
Speaker 3: she was saying no.
Speaker 1: There was someone else coming down the stairs with nachos
Speaker 1: that tripped and spilt the nachos all over the guy
Speaker 1: that was on the ground.
Speaker 3: All right, was that set up or was it real?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 1: I don't know. It looked real. The reaction looked kind
Speaker 1: of real, But I don't know if it was set
Speaker 1: up or not. Adam, did you see it.
Speaker 4: From the reporting that I saw? It was a plant?
Speaker 4: It was fake. Was sadium entertainment. But I don't know.
Speaker 4: You know, Rodney, they fooled some kids there that were
Speaker 4: having fun.
Speaker 3: Pulled me a little bit. When I first saw it,
Speaker 3: I was like.
Speaker 6: I had heard that somebody had witnessed them rehearsing so
Speaker 6: and and if it was real, I mean, it was
Speaker 6: the worst proposal in history.
Speaker 3: It was really bad. Yeah, you don't do that unless
Speaker 3: you know the girls.
Speaker 6: So, I mean, he's just trying to get some viral times.
Speaker 1: So so here's the question though, did the ram who
Speaker 1: was a Charger home game right Charger home game? Did
Speaker 1: the Chargers know about it? And were they in on
Speaker 1: it because he doesn't know he's gonna be on the
Speaker 1: kiss cam or does he does he get a tip, Hey,
Speaker 1: we're gonna put you on the kiss cam and he
Speaker 1: tells them, Hey, I gotta I gotta skit.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do.
Speaker 1: Well, he's got a skit he's gonna do and tells them, hey,
Speaker 1: put me on the kiss cam.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do a skit or let them know earlier or.
Speaker 1: This he's an employee of the team, and they set
Speaker 1: the whole thing up. I mean, it's sort of like
Speaker 1: if you go to the King's game, at one point,
Speaker 1: there's going to be a fan wearing the opposing team's jersey.
Speaker 1: There's always going to be that fane. They gets booed, right, No, well,
Speaker 1: they get booed.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Somehow the camera finds that fan, right who's like cheering
Speaker 1: for the opposing team, and Bailey shows up and hits
Speaker 1: him with a pie or knocks them over or does
Speaker 1: something to them. That happens at every game. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the same person in a
Speaker 1: different jersey, right, but every game throws nachos at him,
Speaker 1: popcorn on him, something.
Speaker 4: It's like the Washington Generals of Proposals.
Speaker 1: Here, it goes around the country. That that couple goes
Speaker 1: around the country. They're in Cincinnati next week, so they
Speaker 1: got to do the same skit in Cincinnati.
Speaker 4: The am I believe in her proposals. If Chris Myers
Speaker 4: is there and accidentally gives it away before the guy
Speaker 4: has a chance to get down on one knee, like.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, remember that? Remember that?
Speaker 1: What? Oh? Wait a minute, Yes, the Hollywood reporter thinks
Speaker 1: that is very real.
Speaker 3: It was very real.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Hollywood reporter thinks it's really let's see uh
Speaker 1: New York Post. Yeah they think it was real. Oh wow,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to see it.
Speaker 3: Wow. Oh yeah, they think it.
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, is he wearing a Rams jersey and
Speaker 1: she's in a Charger jersey. Yeah, that was the whole thing.
Speaker 1: That's the whole thing that set up is that they
Speaker 1: were opposite at that game.
Speaker 3: Uh oh, So now we have this question.
Speaker 1: Rams Chargers wedding proposal video viral moment from pre game
Speaker 1: confirmed fake. Ah, This is from the Sporting.
Speaker 4: News Bennis fake fake fake.
Speaker 3: Yeah, rehearsing Fred had told you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I find really fascinating, like who hired him? Well,
Speaker 1: that's right. Let's see, I'm trying to figure it out that.
Speaker 3: The if you're the Chargers hired them, why would you
Speaker 3: do that? Give you the Rams? What what benefit do
Speaker 3: you get of that? Hiring somebody that's going to do
Speaker 3: a fake.
Speaker 1: Proposal, you know, just in stadium entertainment, Just in stadium entertainment. Oh,
Speaker 1: many thought the team staged it.
Speaker 3: Hold on.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, since I can't read the whole thing sitting here,
Speaker 1: bottom line is this report says it's fake. But what's
Speaker 1: interesting to me is that the New York Post bought it.
Speaker 1: The Hollywood Reporter bought it, right, and they don't buy anything, No,
Speaker 1: they don't. Hollywood Reporter wrote about this really, and they
Speaker 1: had fooled, They got bamboozled.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Late in the game, cameras panned to a seeming Charger
Speaker 1: super fan who quickly caught the attention and admiration of
Speaker 1: Joe Buck and Troy ate Joe Buck. Oh yeah, it
Speaker 1: was an ESPN for her. Uh okay, well that's it.
Speaker 3: It was fake. It was fake and Troy and Joe
Speaker 3: were on in on it then, I guess huh.
Speaker 1: No, I'm sure they were. Well, they didn't know. They're
Speaker 1: just doing the game. Yeah yeah, all right, Well, let
Speaker 1: let's find out what VIC things. VIC will have some
Speaker 1: information on this. Let's walk up them on for the
Speaker 1: Daily haikup, Victor Brigg VIC, good afternoon.

Speaker 5: digs it, so be it. See say pretty. Let it
Speaker 5: be part of the experience of Bolts Rams exhibition. Yes, yes, listen.
Speaker 5: The Bots still haven't scored a touchdown, so listen. Marriage proposal,

Speaker 5: coming out of that game. He's out of the boot.

Speaker 5: Saint Louis. Before he gets to curseh twenty two to one?
Speaker 5: How about Kevin can Myron center field?
Speaker 3: How about that throw?
Speaker 5: How about the catchers and the throw Listen, it's it's tough.
Speaker 5: Freddy Freeman goes down. So did DV say that Max
Speaker 5: Munty could be in the lineup tonight if Freddy Freeman
Speaker 5: is out with the jam finger?
Speaker 1: He did?
Speaker 5: Wow, Well, that's that's your moongous And just a heads
Speaker 5: up to Dave Roberts. I know the bullpen is spent.
Speaker 5: I know it's it's battered.
Speaker 3: All right.
Speaker 1: You know when we come back, we're gonna have to
Speaker 1: We're gonna have to let the finish because this heads up,
Speaker 1: it's critical and it could change the complexion of the season.
Speaker 1: So when we come back, we'll let.
Speaker 3: Me do that.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, we're back on a beautiful Monday. Rodney Pete,
Speaker 1: Fred rogan Vic the brick Tacubs. Come on, Vick, you
Speaker 1: were offering some advice to Dave Roberts, so please finish
Speaker 1: that thought.
Speaker 3: Are you like me? Are you like me? No?
Speaker 5: Honey comes in, Daniel Hudson. He's been lights out early
Speaker 5: in the season, obviously been overworked. He comes in. Now,
Speaker 5: I'm expecting someone to go deep. It happened again yesterday,
Speaker 5: so I would rest Honey a couple of days, let
Speaker 5: him recharge. That's my advice for the Sensee Dave Roberts,
Speaker 5: because Honey is a little battered. But who's not battered?
Speaker 5: Was Cursh so dominant with his movements The iron wheel
Speaker 5: of twenty to his era is now two point sixty three.
Speaker 5: Kursh told DV yesterday postgame. He felt fine, I've got
Speaker 5: four shortstops in the field. He only threw seventy pitches
Speaker 5: in six scoreless innings, and Curse says, you know it's
Speaker 5: better to be efficient. Curse, You're telling me he get
Speaker 5: up his four hits, lots of weak contact. So gritty Kershaw.
Speaker 5: What a revelation this year, What a revelation after the surgery.
Speaker 5: In totality, he was fantastic. Evan Phillips, I think has
Speaker 5: rediscovered the way. He had a score of seventh. But
Speaker 5: Michael King, Clutch Kopek, are you guys as infatuated with
Speaker 5: Kopek as I am?
Speaker 1: I think infatuation is a strong word.
Speaker 3: Not really.
Speaker 5: I mean he is an era of zero point zero zero.
Speaker 5: I think one guy has gotten on his face, like
Speaker 5: twenty nine batters and one guy one walk in twenty
Speaker 5: nine hitters.
Speaker 3: I mean that's insane.
Speaker 5: I mean, Kopek, has this been flawless? I've dubbed him,
Speaker 5: to take a phrase from the great Sandy Kofax back
Speaker 5: in the sixties, He's the new Vulture. He's pick He's
Speaker 5: gonna pick up a lot of saves late, a lot
Speaker 5: of wins late, just like Phil Reagan did back in
Speaker 5: the sixties with the Dodgers. The New Vulture, Michael Kopek.
Speaker 1: And Vulture, the new Vulture, New Vulture.
Speaker 5: Oh Tani, let's not get numb to the show's numbers.
Speaker 5: Number thirty nine Juta Matakudasai. Hold on a moment and
Speaker 5: soak up the stats of the show. So it's thirty
Speaker 5: nine home runs, eighty eight runs better than he's hitting
Speaker 5: two ninety thirty seven stolen bases. He's on the cusp
Speaker 5: of forty forty possible fifty to fifty in Japanese, that's
Speaker 5: go jew, fifty go jew in Japanese, so.
Speaker 1: It'd be juwe Jew, go Jew. But fifty to fifty
Speaker 1: that would.
Speaker 5: Be go ju go jew exactly, Fred, right, look.
Speaker 1: At Fred, go ahead, Freddy, you got it.
Speaker 5: Fred is honored today. He's laser laser sharp.
Speaker 3: Not really.
Speaker 5: How about some love for Miggy Migey Rojas. He's playing
Speaker 5: sensational third base, a couple hits, the game winning RBI.
Speaker 5: Don't do doubt. You can never underestimate this value of
Speaker 5: Mickey Rojas.
Speaker 3: This year.
Speaker 5: He's had a sensational season.
Speaker 1: Didn't he say he'd like to stay in the organization
Speaker 1: when he res and work for him.
Speaker 5: Well, he's an incredible leader. He'd be a fabulous, fabulous manager.
Speaker 5: But MIGEI Roll right now, in the moment is producing.
Speaker 5: I mean, he's a perfect swing right now, He's grooving.
Speaker 5: You know, Allah Luxey, Luxy's been unconscious. I'm just really
Speaker 5: covling over this. Taking the series in Saint Louis. When
Speaker 5: we were down, Let's face it, we were down coming
Speaker 5: into Saint Louis, we didn't know who's pitching, and suddenly
Speaker 5: we come up with the series win at Bush. That's
Speaker 5: always tough. Welcome back Mooky, I mean every game he's
Speaker 5: getting a couple of hits since he came back from
Speaker 5: the broken hand is unbelievable. And tonight, welcome back Justin Turner, Azul,
Speaker 5: Heart and Soul and the Seattle Marinis on Hello.
