19
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:51.880
<v Speaker 4>you know, at some point in time, we you know,

20
00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:53.799
<v Speaker 4>needed to get back to work and get ready for

21
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:58.280

<v Speaker 4>too on the way to win the World Series I

25
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:10.599
<v Speaker 4>couldn't be more grateful and appreciateive of that. That was

26
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:15.680

00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:18.359

30
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:28.159
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Bunda is our guest in front of first pitch

31
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:31.719
<v Speaker 1>between the Dodgers and White Sox. I'm curious this section

32
00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:34.840
<v Speaker 1>of the clubhouse, all the relievers, all the dogs are

33
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:35.840
<v Speaker 1>back together with.

34
00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:36.959
<v Speaker 2>A few new faces.

35
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:39.879
<v Speaker 1>Does it feel like you picked up where you left

36
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:42.239
<v Speaker 1>off when you last saw all these guys at the

37
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:44.599
<v Speaker 1>parade and after winning the World Series?

38
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:46.319
<v Speaker 2>Did it feel like it was just yesterday?

39
00:01:46.359 --> 00:01:49.920
<v Speaker 1>What's it like coming back and starting a fresh season.

40
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:52.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you know, like throughout the off season we kept

41
00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:53.159
<v Speaker 3>in touch.

42
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:55.040
<v Speaker 4>You know, we have a group chat that you know,

43
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:58.040
<v Speaker 4>we just kind of whatever we found funny or whatever,

44
00:01:58.120 --> 00:02:00.239
<v Speaker 4>you know, it just it was it spun to.

45
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:02.000
<v Speaker 3>Interact with that.

46
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:05.719
<v Speaker 4>But coming back and you know, seeing everybody, you know,

47
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:09.719
<v Speaker 4>just kind of refreshing, you know, everybody's off seasons and

48
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:12.439
<v Speaker 4>asking how they how they're doing, how's a family and

49
00:02:12.479 --> 00:02:15.280
<v Speaker 4>everything else, like that it's nice. Uh, it's a great time.

50
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:19.280
<v Speaker 4>It's an exciting time, you know, but we are in

51
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:22.400
<v Speaker 4>a in a I guess, I guess for me, it

52
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.840
<v Speaker 4>feels like a time crunch, just because I've never pitched

53
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:28.919
<v Speaker 4>that far in a season. But you know, we're just

54
00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:30.800
<v Speaker 4>trying to go day by day and handle it and

55
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:34.599
<v Speaker 4>trying to just continue our build up and just you know,

56
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:39.479
<v Speaker 4>ultimately staying healthy. That's the most important part. But you know,

57
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:43.000
<v Speaker 4>it's been quick. It seems quick, but it's you know,

58
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:45.840
<v Speaker 4>it's baseball. I love the game. I love being around

59
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:50.080
<v Speaker 4>my teammates. I love you know, everything they bring every

60
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:52.919
<v Speaker 4>single day. So like it's it's it's very enjoyable to

61
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:55.360
<v Speaker 4>be around, and you know, I'm just ready to get

62
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:55.840
<v Speaker 4>back to it.

63
00:02:56.080 --> 00:02:59.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's the most intriguing part of spring training for me.

64
00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:02.560
<v Speaker 1>As far as you guys are concerned, the relievers, how

65
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:05.159
<v Speaker 1>much you were leaned upon during the season and the

66
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:10.240
<v Speaker 1>postseason and now coming back, how are your bodies responding.

67
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Have you felt a difference from a year ago at

68
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 1>this time.

69
00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:18.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I definitely feel like I'm a little behind in

70
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:20.840
<v Speaker 4>the sense of my build up or where I want

71
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.719
<v Speaker 4>to be what I normally am, but it's not a

72
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:25.319
<v Speaker 4>bad spot.

73
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:26.919
<v Speaker 3>You know, I'm in a really good spot.

74
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:30.120
<v Speaker 4>I feel good, My stuff is still you know, I'm

75
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:33.840
<v Speaker 4>still working on you know, some pitches and stuff like that.

76
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:37.080
<v Speaker 4>So overall, I think I'm in a really good spot.

77
00:03:38.120 --> 00:03:40.919
<v Speaker 4>Although you know, years past, I felt like I was

78
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:43.680
<v Speaker 4>a little bit further ahead at this time, but you know,

79
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.039
<v Speaker 4>given the shortened offseason and stuff like that, I had

80
00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:47.120
<v Speaker 4>to give my body a break.

81
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:50.719
<v Speaker 3>So but yeah, things are, things are good.

82
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:53.800
<v Speaker 4>There's some aren't mornings where I'm waking up a little little,

83
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:58.319
<v Speaker 4>little little sore. So but you know, it's all right.

84
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:00.400
<v Speaker 4>It's it's part of it. It's part of the it's

85
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:03.280
<v Speaker 4>part of what we put ourselves through. So it's it's

86
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:05.840
<v Speaker 4>something that I'm accustomed to. So it's just all about

87
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:08.159
<v Speaker 4>the build up. And that's what I keep telling myself

88
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 4>every morning. I'm building up and building up. So yeah,

89
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.719
<v Speaker 4>that's that's That's the biggest thing is just understanding like, hey,

90
00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:17.680
<v Speaker 4>this is part of it. You know, just keep your

91
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:19.839
<v Speaker 4>mind on what you need to do and accomplish the

92
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 4>work that day and continue moving forward and building that

93
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:24.639
<v Speaker 4>building that foundation and break by Rick.

94
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Hey, the one thing that's not behind is that stash.

95
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:30.079
<v Speaker 1>I'll never forget the first time I met Anthony Bunda,

96
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:32.480
<v Speaker 1>all I saw was that stash. When you turn your

97
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:36.279
<v Speaker 1>head and it looking great, it's iconic. You've been part

98
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:39.720
<v Speaker 1>of the most memorable bullpen that the Dodgers have had

99
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>in quite some time, and even young Ben Caspirius.

100
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:44.839
<v Speaker 2>It's part of that dog mentality.

101
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:47.399
<v Speaker 1>So thank you for the time and welcome me me

102
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:48.639
<v Speaker 1>into this corner.

103
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:49.720
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate it.

104
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:51.040
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, thank you for having me
