About this episode

“This is believed one network every topic everywhere. Well, the Tanner Scott roller coaster is fun. I was fun to end it, but the Dodgers win a game that's two in a row. You got a good game from Freddie Freeman.”From the transcript

The Los Angeles Dodgers once again took care of business and beat a bad team in Cincinnati. Yoshinobu Yamamoto showed off his ace-level wares to put together a gem after early struggles. The LA offense was good enough to win with another Teoscar Hernandez homer, and an Alex Freeland homer. Plus Freddie Freeman broke out of a slump in a big way.

Clint and Kevin get into all of it with surprise guest appearances by Jeff Spiegel, Jeff Snider, and Dodgers play-by-play man Stephen Nelson!

This is believed one network every topic everywhere. Well, the Tanner Scott roller coaster is fun. I don't know. I was fun to end it, but the Dodgers win a game that's two in a row. That's number 92 on the season. You got a good game from Freddie Freeman. You got a great game and ace type of game in that Yamamoto battled back from not having it for the first two batters type of game. We're going to talk about all of that. Plus maybe some surprise guests. I don't know. Just hang out with us here on this edition of All Dodgers. Coming up, you live from my home studio and be you to full lot. Point Day, California. This is the All Dodgers podcast part of the belief network podcast presented by fan dual. I am Clint Paseus with me tonight on his standard Tuesday night is Kevin Skinner. I'm sorry. I'm not the standard Tuesday time.

No, no, it is not. But still you are an EP boy. So we're happy that the Dodgers are playing early games in Cincinnati. And we are happy that Dodgers are once again beating bad teams. That's what you want to see something that pop pop and I talked about yesterday. And we've talked about a whole bunch. But yeah, this was, I guess, whole home a very good game for the Dodgers once again. Lot to talk about with Yamamoto with the offense in there. As it seems we keep doing whatever you and I have been doing post games of late. We probably talk about that ninth inning a little bit. And admittedly, I was, I was doing some things here on our production software getting ready for a potential guest cameo. So I didn't see every single pitch that Tanner Scott threw. But I did look up and it was one on with runners on, oh, sorry, it was one out with runners on the corners. And then he kind of settled in and found that 99 cheddar.

Yeah. The pitch forks and torches have been coming after Tanner Scott. Maybe it's deserved. Maybe it's not. He hasn't been as sharp of late. But he got the job done. Yeah, I'm thank God. Yeah, I'm thank God. If he blew this one, that would have been pretty, pretty bad. Yeah. So he, yeah, he allowed a, you know, I had two hits. I think we walked. I can't remember the first guy got on. And he allows a single. He did get five swings in misses once he finally, like once I think after the Mark prior amount visit. Got angry. And he got angry or maybe Mark prior whispered sweet nothings into his ear. We don't know what happens on those non visits. It would be fun to know sometime. But I, yeah, I would prefer him be a little bit more locked down. It was the best part of the. Reds lineup for whatever that's worth.

But it's. You know, the closer we get to, you know, the postseason, it just feels like we just we have another eighth, ninth inning problem again. Yeah. Yeah. Listen, he's a guy that this, we know Davis can be a lot of being relying on. He's a guy that we need to be and tip top shape when it comes to getting out late in a ball game. In less than a month now, we got, we got live coming to us from the field. This is Mr. Jeff Spiegel coming in hot. He was at a great American small park there. How you doing, bud? You hear what? Who's it video and audio is going to be awful and it's blurry and I can barely hear you, but I just want you to know. Shout out to Cincinnati. Shout out to scuba and Yamamoto. And we're two and all on the road trip, boys. Hey, listen, that's what we need. That's what we need out of speaks. We need that. We need Skyline chilly and we need doves. And I think he checked the boxes today.

Any good food. And we need to send a few messages. Thanks for all of you guys today. Oh, thankfully, you didn't get a chance to see an LED, the cruise home or there. You did see a single sneak past a mooky bets glove, but what was the, what was the pulse as you were watching Tandor Scott try to lock it down there in the, in the ninth. I mean, I'm sure we all had full confidence that that was just going to go swimmingly, right? So I was just going to run it around the zone to start that it a. So shout out to Tandor Scott. What's Trevino came up with like he threw 99 and it was like, okay, that guy has no chance on that pitch. So, you know, Sam man signing you settling down. I joked with my buddies coming into the night. They had drier and Scott warming up and I turn to my buddy. I go, which guy comes in if they get this to six runs and which guy gets to come in if it's four runs. I wasn't entirely positive, but you know, Tandor Scott is a job tonight. Well, we have we have bonus now apparently their chef decided to check in from.

Oh, four boxer. This is not how I'm having the four boxer going Kevin. We lost we lost the clubhouse early. It's gone. I've all left out, you know. Yeah. This is this is great. This is having fun. I'm going to mute. I'm going to mute speaks because it's obviously a lot of feedback coming from him. But hopefully people are enjoying this. I think getting all the boys together. We haven't been all on the same screen since since a trade deadline and all of a sudden. I think we all feel a lot better now than we did then is we we we got another cameo from from Snyder. This is my son Ryan who also works for me. So keep keep sitting in the family there. Well, we know speaks has things to do. We'll both of you guys. I don't know who's hanging out with us, but it sounds it all sounds great. I'll continue to mute speaks. It's been Clint. Clint's the tone of Clint's voice right now is much like Joe Davis's voice when Don

trail willest doesn't pause for Joe to give play by play when something happens in a game. It's like, OK, guys, I'm a professional. What are you doing here? That's what Clint sounds like right now. Yeah, I try my best to ruin the show my own way as opposed to the technical quality of it. No, say everything looks good. You guys look great. We love the the background there speaks. You sign it off. Yeah, I got to run my sound is quality. I can barely hear you, but I appreciate you guys. Two and out. So go Dodgers and we'll chat soon. All right, we'll see you when you get back into your layer. Take it easy, but. Yeah, I got a lot of glory. I got to go to this shot. I got to go to this shot first so I could so I could set you up properly. Jeff hold on. There we go. Now look at that. Look, this is the second kitchen to debut on the show. It's not. It is not Kevin's kitchen. This is a friend my kitchen. I got to go very professional and then you all so I just figured this big is there am I as well up into.

What are people in the chat feeling of the most, by the way? Jeff's kitchen pretty much epic quad box. Yeah, a fiducian Freeland, awesome tonight. Yeah, Freeland. Best he's looked in a bit or at least results wise. Definitely opposite field home run. I mean, it was in great America small park, but. On runs a home run. I would actually should I should look up how many home runs or how many ballpark so what have been home run 18 30. That's respectable respect that's a good words that's the right word. Yeah, I mean, you got a home earn there. He also hit into a double play his his eight eighth double play on the year. It was earlier in the game and then he made up for it with the, you know, it's fourth home or the season in the seventh inning chips in a ninth inning double as well. Dodgers can't cash that in, but still nice to see him getting some knocks and you know, it's been kind of an ongoing back and forth in our group text. But Speaks says at some point we're going to need to give Freeland his flowers because he has been playing a little bit better of late.

Obviously the first week or two, absolutely atrocious. That much said, we don't need to spend a whole lot of time on Alex Freeland. He's not the reason the Dodgers won this game, but still the fact that he's doing something. I don't know that he's doing enough to make. Yeah, a difference in potentially being on the postseason roster, but you know, having another option given Dave some optionality is definitely a good thing. Yep. Very soda phrase saying Freeland is just as surprised as we were texting about that. I don't know if he didn't see it go over what like that's what it had to have been. But yeah, that ball going over and you see him like what do I don't know what to do with my hands. Yeah, you got to love that. I guess, you know, the expression is act like you've been there before. I haven't been there very much before. So good on him. But the the better part of the offense, obviously the Dodgers by virtue of it being a four nothing shut out victory for your boys and blue Dodgers scored the first run first with a second.

Inning Hunter Fadoosia, RBI single and he just kind of has quietly continued to rake in run producing spots. He gets on base. What do you have? I think a hit in the walk today. You know, Muncie starts that that rally with the hit by pitch with one out at Tommy Edmund singles for the first time in about a century. And yeah, Fadoosia gets the offense going flash forward. I'll just throw it all out there and then we'll kind of download or digest all of them. But so Fadoosia in the second and then top of the third, the kind of everybody's favorite recent combination sort of did their back to back special with a Kyle Tucker walk followed by a Teosker Homer. Another, you know, this is a pull job, but back to back games with with dingers for for Teo there. That that to me is fun and we last week or we could go whatever it was an amount of time ago.

Maybe it was you and I maybe as me in speaks, I believe it was speaks and I we got a lot of guff got a lot of crap trying to maintain some positivity when it comes to Kyle Tucker in the fact that he was getting on bases earning his walks. So he was hit today two walks 74th 75th walk on the year second only to Otoni in this lineup and also his 10th walk in September. So if he's not going to hit a lot which he's hit a little bit better on this roadie and of late second hit a lot walks kind of the way they say walks it just as good as a as a base hit. Exactly and I mean might not have been us specifically, but I've gotten you know as you said guff for it to because the hit or the yeah back quality's there. You know he's making good swing decisions. Yeah, it's just the results haven't been great. And yeah, I think you know if he goes over to with a walk that's just kind of the Kyle Tucker experience this year and that's fine.

He's getting on base. He's putting himself in position also writing himself out of position in some cases also I don't know if you will watch his left arm is led the cruise landed on it. But that was a little fright. No, scary. No, it's scary to everybody, but like our buddy Richie Flores who was hoping for the arm to just be left on the floor as Tucker got up. Yeah, but thankfully it doesn't seem like any any sort of injury or damage there. No, he looked yeah, he seemed to walked it off, but yeah, it's it's good when he starting to pair that the walks because you know what I talked about he was like third or fourth on the team in RBI and in like second and run scored or something like that. That's something that you know those are valuable metrics when the guy isn't hitting that to me is at least saying he's not a zero in the box. You can't mean you just can't be a zero. You have to be able to do something and right now he's also pairing that with like actual good contact with the ball over the wall, you know,

double here or there. Like you know it seems to be coming together a little bit for Kyle Tucker and Teosker to obviously I mean Teoskers the best hitter on the team right now for the last I don't know two weeks. But it's been nice it's been nice specifically for those two guys because all year they've been scuffling at the plate and I mean if you know I think we'll all take this version of them in September then in June like if you had to pick one month out of the year to break out and start having a good month I like I think everyone would 100% pick September assuming is the regular season. Yeah and we could think back to even last year where Andy Pahez was hot early in the season like May June turned it on then obviously cooled off later in the season really really was ice cold in the month of October and Cino man in October. But as we've maintained all throughout the season and much at times much of the chagrin of others you know people hanging out with us in the chat.

Doesn't matter if they're hot all through the season as long as the Dodgers continue to win enough ball games each week each month each season to have more wins than I guess really for 13 other teams 13 or 14 other teams in the national league then that's all you really got to do and they do that despite the struggles at times obviously had a rough month of April or August and they're still just they're still right there 90 win number 90. When number 92 on the season there they're baseball is hard you know baseball is hard Dave said that Dave Roberts said that in the clubhouse last night as the Dodgers were having their champagne toast celebrating a postseason birth there and you know he also said we saw haven't seen the best version of this team and we have not I don't think at any point this season we have seen the best 26 dudes September 28 players. Out there all available at the same time. No not at all and that's the nature of baseball you're never going to get everyone going right at the same time is not how the sport works.

I mean it's great if we can get all the units to go at right at the same time let alone 27 players let's just talk about starting pitching relief pitching and off. Yeah half the time it feels like we get one and a half of those tops right now they're starting pitching is absolutely shoving which is to be expected honestly and we have enough of the offense looking good and you know we'll take that we'll keep it's kind of entering another little little bit of a rut after his hot five weeks or so. Need to see him bounce out of that a little bit but I mean you know Freddie with a couple knocks today to like eyes are just slowly trying to find a slowly get in there you know I'm what we're everyone in their mother's confidence met a confident max will find it to. Yeah he's that kind of guy so I mean it's all encouraging signs and you know I know again it's the reds it's great America ballpark or whatever but you got to do it with the teams in front of you I mean and you know. I did I they they drive cars to they do drive nice cars to we're to pause for a second so I can tell you guys about our friends over at larynco it is about that time that I showed you've heard about the pouches that that we have been mentioning all of this month as laryn has graciously chosen to be a sponsor this month and these are some sweet little no nicotine pouches I do a bunch of things for you one if you're somebody who has like

All right. We got the offensive side of things. There's more to get into out of that. I do want to get into the chats as well. A lot of a lot of people friends hanging out with us to see our buddy whiskey Wellington. Wellington. I'm going to pop that up and we're going to hit that gong. We're going to hit that coin $1.99. This is Kevin Bennett workhorse lately. Love it. Right. And you like you're like a definitely you wouldn't be the curse.

You would be I'll give you like Chris cap you want to. Okay. I was going to say James backston for that works. But we're not I'm not looking at our head you. Yeah, but definitely better hair. James backston. Oh, my word. Our first super chat of the night was actually a nothing. No words just doesn't love for maybe K in their skier loves baseball. We got four nine nine from skier, which is when Sal Stewart struck out looking in the 60 made a face like llama through a javelin towards plate. Yamma Yama is somehow underrated. Very much agree with that final statement. That final part we're going to talk Yamamoto in just a second. But man, man, that dude is fun. He's just fun as a pitcher. Some pop up and I we're talking about yesterday. Laura, this is not a super chap. But I love this is say we're going to start to go fund me to get speaks to the postseason absolutely prevent Kevin from even considering tickets. That's important. This is very important. Thank you. Laura for making sure everybody knows Kevin is banned from any Dodgers postseason games.

Yeah. If in the best way to guarantee that is to make sure that Dodgers don't play the Cubs. That's probably the only way I go to a postseason game. You know, now I kind of just want to see this work. I want I want them to play the Cubs. I want you to go and if they lose, I'm willing for the science experiment. Will in a sacrifice sacrifice that loss just so we can permanently ban you. Obviously there was a lot of love for for speaks joining the show. There's also a little bit of love for pop pop for for I guess steam rolling. Our surprise guest. But he from Raul and Dullin and Clinton is office the other day. Now pop up in his office. Which is the kitchen there at wherever he works and then 80 K another dollar nine and a super chat. This one with the words. I'm going to push the buttons Jeff from the kitchen deserves another chat. Thank you very much. Whiskey Wellington, $1.99. Next we're going to have Jeff Jeff the chef live from the bathtub.

Nope. Nope. We have control of that and we will ban that. I will ban that and he will be he will be placed on on administrative leave. He ever tried to join from the bathtub. Brasotto dollar nine and a chat. Appreciate Ray. Of course, always hanging out with us and another super chat from Raul for nine and when I start getting that anxiety about the playoffs, then seeing scuba. Yamamoto dominate gives me peace of mind. Yeah. Yamamoto. Perfect time to segue into some Yamato. And like I said, we will have more. I guess not potentially not a perfect time to segue to some Yamato. Because we got we got to know the speaks citing here and give me one second to set that up. Since I had it, well, I guess not one second because I didn't go into. There it is. No, we got done all Dodgers tonight boys. What's always I do and that is a friend of the show.

Mr. Stephen Nelson. How you doing, Delly? Good to see you, bud. I want to be honest with you. I can't hear anything. Uh, I, I assume he said how are you doing? I mean, he did. He did. We're doing great. The Dodgers won. How are you guys doing? We're doing great. The Dodgers won. I'm saying to you, air conditioning the whole time. And meanwhile, it's like 70% humidity out here in Cincinnati for the rest of us. So I was just on the radio call with Moe and we were, so I'm like, hey, it's so pleasant here in the booth. Like the, you know, it's the air conditioning coming from the back of the booth. And it like traps it right where we're sitting in fun. Now I know longer in the booth and I feel like I need a shower. Yeah, yeah, the Cincinnati's Cincinnati's not a place to be. Uh, Nelly, or I think we've asked you this in the past. Are we a yes? Are we a no on skyline? Chili. Scott, yes, I know it's got. So I have, I'm going to be honest with you. Haven't tried it. Don't plan to. It's a good call.

Uh, my first time a great American ballpark. So I'm now 29 of 30 target field in Minnesota is the last one on the list. So I was excited to check off great Americans. I've written so many good things. I did not care to check off skyline. Chili. At all. We like today. I'm mad. I did. Yeah. If you guys think I'm going to tempt bubble guts before broadcast, you guys are sorely misstated. Fair. Yeah. I'm excited. Yo, low, yo, low baby. That's. All right. Speak. It's like easy for you to say. Yeah. Seriously. All right. Speaks. Speaks. Get him one question and then you guys go have some fun. No, it's, uh, yeah. I mean, Dodger. The host might need a lead off. Lead off. How do we feel about that? No, I think it was good. Like I like that the Dodgers are using this time with show. Hey, on the aisle and treading out of the 100% to give post way as much experience and exposure as they can. So they wanted to give them that was what Doc said before the game.

They wanted to give them Clive at bath tonight. They don't like my shaker and this. I know they don't have a pry pie. I know the awkward selfie. That's my life. Come here and stay in the U.K. All right. You're. All right. Yeah. That was a good one. There it is. Right that they're trying to give him as much exposure to Terry situations and matchups. All right. Now you punch it off for the first time. And you punch out again. So it brings you back now. Recenters you a little bit. Um, I just think that's the best way to do it. You look how much run he actually gets down the stretch with the October lights turned on. That remains to be slung. Well, you want to get him as ready as you possibly can because going from Tulsa to then three weeks later, a decisive clincher in the postseason. They're two very different things. So I think they're doing the right thing. I know fans thought he was the rear on base. Every single game for the rest of his career, given how he takes pictures, but that's not going to happen, but that's still not a bad day. Yeah. Zach. Hi, Elsa. We're going to go get some baby powder to try to pitch.

We appreciate you guys. Appreciate you guys hanging away with us. Friend, friend of the show, Steven Nelson joined in joining the broadcast here. We always appreciate Nelly.

Just before they had joined us, we were about to get into Yamamoto. Obviously, Yamma started very uncharacteristically.

First time in his career, he has walked the lead off batter on on four pitches and then ends up walking the second batter. Then locks at the F in to retire 21 of the next 22 batters eventually, you know, one one guy reaches within the fourth inning, I think, on a base hit. Battles, he battled like ACEs do to keep it scoreless. Like he didn't have the fast, well, didn't really have anything found something that he could strike. You know, a little bit of a conversation, huge shout out to Fedusa, by the way, veteran move going out there, even though the only in a second here, but going out there kind of settling him down was like, Hey, let's go. Let's go, bro, let's find something. I'm assuming that's what he said because you know, baseball just translates that way. What'd you like about Yamma? No, like he said, he can't, he didn't have anything really. I mean, D train had mentioned it on the broadcast also shout out. Don't trouble. It's awesome to hear him back in the booth. Always really good. Yeah, but he said, yeah, he just didn't have his fast ball. And yet he still found a way to generate 15 swings and misses when your his set up pitch

doesn't work, which is absolutely spectacular. I mean, it's the plus plus command. I can talk about it over and over again. How good it is when he can just dot things on both sides of the plate, even if it's, you know, without his fastball. Well, yeah, he just, he hunkered down. He figured it out. It's he's been my pick to start the post season. Like if I needed one, one win, one win. I mean, I guess I've been saying Blake's not on Yamamoto, but if I need one guy on the mound, it's Yamamoto. The dude just gets better when the lights get brighter. He's just completely unfazed. I mean, how many pitchers would we have seen walk the first two batters and then unravel at least the first inning? Not to mention the guy sits down 21 of the next 22. He sees. Like it was saying just it's so good. He's unbelievable. He's unflappable. It's so much fun to see him on the mound. It's really been fun to see him, you know, when he first came over from Japan to where he is now,

to like, he's just like the, you know, they were kind of handling it with kitty gloves. Can you handle the schedule? You know, is he going to be terrible? And the dude is just a bonafide ace. He's just one of the best pitchers in baseball. And yeah, I just, I don't think he gets talked about enough from the national media because he's not a power pitcher, which is fine. But like, the thing is like he is. I think it's more so that he doesn't have like the one elite pitch. He has multiple elite pitches. Elite pitches that he could just go to it any moment. And that's not as fun as Mizorowski throwing 105 or touching 105 or whatever. Or, I don't know, Cam Schlippler throwing whatever he has, admittedly, haven't seen a whole lot of cam. I know he's very good with the yanks, but Yama has everything. And it's all plus, plus whether it be a curve ball, you know, splitter, the slider, and whatever he wants to slider. Probably his weakest pitch. And it's still pretty freaking.

Still really good. Yeah, absolutely. And it, you know, he has six, seven pitches. And, you know, exactly. And they're all, you know, at the worst, they're like, maybe average. Like the worst of those is potentially an average pitch. But then like you said, the other stuff is just plus, plus I, he's must watch TV for me. He just is also so calming. Yeah, just like the way he works on the mound, he, he like gets into a rhythm. And it's almost meditative where you just like watch him, you know, stride back, deliver, catch the ball, pick a pitch slide, slide, you know, slide back, deliver. And it's just like, you know, it almost like laws the batter into a sleep. And then he's like, oh, yeah, here's 97. What I needed. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That, I mean, that delivery just, he has to be, and by virtue of us seeing it happen to, you know, the best of the best in the big leagues, he has to be a very uncomfortable at bat. Like a very uncomfortable dude to stand in the box against, because you don't know what's coming.

And, you know, through, through a lot of sinkers at one point, I think that was kind of helping him find it. Of course, he got the nastiness as, of course, Speaks and Nelly were mentioning there, the nastiness, the humidity there, instance, and Addy, you're not going to have the best grip on your fastball, potentially, or at least the, the best, yeah, most of the best grip, which is going to lead to some, some, you know, command issues with it. So finding a little bit more movement, you know, starting a pitch outside, the zone having a break back in, you know, all a Greg Maddox or whatever with the sinker, he's great. And this is why where I love, I put up one of the chats that somebody had about, you know, he's the ace of aces is because he is that guy who, when he doesn't have his best stuff, and I already said it, he finds something, he finds a way you are never out of a baseball game. When Yoshi Yamamoto was on the mound, no, not at all. And like his bad games are like, you know, six innings three in run, and that's bad.

Yeah, it's still six innings. He finds it. It's, you know, it's very Clayton Kershaw, like, I don't think that's a stretch to say, you know, if Yamamoto does just for a lot more pitches, a lot more pitches. And, you know, he's only been doing it for was this is their second is 30. This is 30 year. Yeah. Yeah. Career high and wins now. 14th win on the season. He earned tonight. So he could, he could get to 15. I mean, he could get to 15. Before he'll get, he'll get an opportunity for 15, potentially 16, if the schedule lines up. Yeah. But I mean, that, that seems more, and you know, the last time we were on is like 13, 13 seems so low. 14, 15, 16, that seems a little bit more right for a pitcher like Yamamoto. And when you consider, you know, he's somebody who starts every six days, you don't get as many opportunities as also somebody who doesn't always have, you know, the best of run support.

So for him to be even at, you know, 14 wins kind of feels, I wouldn't say surprising, but maybe somewhat surprising with how things, uh, usually can go for him. Unfortunately, so he was, of course, my pick last year to win the, uh, the NL Saiyong award. That was before the season. Now, you know, he was somebody who was in the running here with our friends over at Fandals, looking at those odds for, for, uh, you know, winners of the 2026 NL Saiyong award. Yeah, it's, it's going to be missed, obviously. But he now, Yamamoto has dropped off of the, uh, the potential, well, I guess, players you can select, which I think is weak, because, finalists, yeah. I don't know, man, like, obviously Miz is a lock Sanchez. Once again, back to back season, Christopher Sanchez has been an outright dog for the Phillies. A little bit of a hiccup in the second half, just a hair, but still so good.

And then Chris sale, just always, you know, somebody who finds himself in the mix of being one of the best pitchers in the National League. But interesting there that you can't, you can't put any money over there on, uh, on Yamamoto win the Saiyong anymore on Fandals, but he's Saiyong in my heart. Yeah, that's a good deal for being a presenting sponsor here on All Dodgers. Chris sale, the health was always a thing. I mean, I'm just looking at Yamamoto starts this year. And, you know, the shortest one was five and a third, no earned runs against Philly, you know, and then, like, potentially the worst one was six and a third, five earned runs against the giant. But there's just, oh, no, he had, he had, uh, six innings, six earned against him. Yeah, he had, he had, he had, he had, he had one stinger, but like, there are so many, it's just like one and run zero one. It's just, the dude just goes out and produces every time he gets the ball or very much on many more times than not. Yeah. Yeah, he's, he's a very good. And where's he had also like, on innings?

Because that was always going to be like one of the things. I don't want team. I want player innings. Because that's me one of the things like, oh, he's not going to be anywhere near the top of, of, you know, the leaderboards in innings. He actually has been, despite the fact that he's starting every six day, Yamamoto has, has now, uh, thrown a hundred and seventy nine innings, which is fifth most in all of baseball. Pretty damn impressive. That's really impressive. Pretty damn tack on another. What do you had seven strikeouts today? Yep. So, 179 innings, 177 to 78 strikeouts. Yeah. Only 39 wall already. He'll have 41 walks after that. That's so gross. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, that's absolutely unbelievable. Point 08. FIP. Yeah. Yeah. He's at the point we're getting to here. King is that, uh, Yamamoto is good. And as we have maintained a time or two or seven, over the last, you know, couple of weeks, uh, there is no wrong or right answer who starts game one. I think either way it's going to be Yamamoto and game two. And that just sounds so fun.

Like for Yamamoto, it'll be starting game two guy who started game one for Dodgers and each of the last two post seasons to say that there is arguably somebody that is a hair better than him. Or maybe leaps and bounds better. I don't know. However, you decide to grade Tarek scuba but scuba. I think there's game one. I want snow to go game one. I think he's earned it, but also scuba is Tarek scuba. Yeah. And for what is worth, I actually don't think it's performance based. I think it's just breaking up snow in scuba. Yeah. Yeah. Either way, it's got to go that way. Yeah. Yeah. Like I just think you don't want them to throw both lefties back to back nights. They could rather just go left right left. You know, as they do with the, um, the batting lineup. But again, if Dave goes, no, we're just going to ride with the world series MVP. Everyone's going to get certain. By the way, Yoshi, two, two five one ERA that is also tied for fifth best ERA and all of baseball. So, um, I'm sure somewhere, Josh Retic is eating crow

about his who you can't give somebody who's never played the game, $325 million. Yes, you can, because he's an outright animal. Other notes pitching wise from this game, we saw a better inning out of Brock Stewart. Brock Stewart is kind of one of those guys that the numbers look very good. People, I think, I think feel uneasy seeing him get into games. Um, and then we were to talk about Tennis got there. So that's kind of just to wrap up the pitching side of things. We got to talk more. Obviously, we already got the insight from from Nelly about, um, Hostway, Depala. We, we got to talk a little bit more about that, but I do, Depala. Yes, now he's the power. Scoff. Um, but we did have a couple of chats. I want to get to Venn 88 in the chat with the $5. Super chat. Thank you very much. Sir says, I'm going to hit that gong as well. Four to five people ate that chili suffered from diarrhea. The fifth one enjoyed it.

We love Skyline Chili. Big Skyline Chili people here. Uh, we also got Praul with another $1.99 on the super chat machine saying future Dodger. Ellie, David Cruz. He's, he doesn't want to play for the Dodgers because then his numbers will get worse. Well, you know, Yolo, two yellows away the team. He's messed against. You can't take that away from him. He really does show up against the Dodgers. My sweet. He does. Like, I like, yes, he's a superstar. He's very good. Good Lord. That boy likes hitting in Los Angeles. Yeah. But if he's hitting in Los Angeles, why not play 81 games there? You know, it's against the Dodgers. It's the team across from him. You've waited all season for this one.

Batting lead off for the first time in his career. Interesting decision from Dave. I like the idea getting him as many bats as you want. I do wonder if you're having sorry dip Paula move around maybe a little bit too much. I don't know did get his first career strikeout in today's game. Two career strikeouts. Yeah. Couple of couple of keys in there. Yeah. The bad quality looked not as good as it did in the first four games but you know what it was. You're kind of feeling about Joe Sway. How about that? How about that messing up an aim? Of course. Um I he's in such a

there's a no it's a no lose situation for him. For the Paula. They're just they're the Paula. There's no there's no there's he can't lose because everything is just an experiment. All he can do is succeed. And if he does then he's on the postseason roster. If he doesn't it's here's this you know breadth of experience you just got for free. Now take that into the offseason. Come back with the big league club next year and just rake where you definitely will not be hitting lead off almost ever unless again show he's injured. But I liked having having a bat lineup lead off because why not? I mean just yeah. What's their loose? There's not there. Do you lose nothing? If he again he gets on page like awesome. Hey maybe he could be a lead off hitter in the future. I mean again one game does not eliminate him from potentially being the lead off hitter in the future. But you know if he succeeds really on you're like okay. I like it also to Dave's or to Nelly's point about what Dave said. You know if the goal is to get him five

at bats. Get him the five at bats as fast as possible. And then you can take him out if you need to do a defensive substitution. But you get him his five at bats. Kind of like how pictures like in the priests or the yeah in spring training if they need to throw a certain number of like pitches. Sometimes they'll just throw every single one at the beginning and then they'll just pitch normally. So I liked it. It was I thought yeah the back wall is a little bit worse but I mean I don't know like yeah. You could just see the upside. The upside is just everywhere. The thing is the it's going to continue to be difficult to kind of always remind ourselves. He is 21. He's not even 21 and a half yet. Yeah. He's like the game might speed up on him at times. The league might adjust and it might take him a minute to adjust back. If I love the idea you threw out there or the the kind of concept you threw out there whatever you want to call it in that this is just you know free a free learning experience for him. If it works out hell yeah you got another

weapon another option maybe maybe he makes the the postseason roster taking like a freelance spot or something like that just giving yourself another option that you know lefty bat with some power or at least somebody who could come off the bench and walk for you or give you a good at bat but yeah what I felt in that first inning I think he's what he didn't he swing at the first pitch of the game first or second pitch of the game I didn't I didn't catch the first inning so I'm forgotten again that it was an early start it is an early start yeah um but yeah you know that one that's where I was like okay maybe maybe it's pumped the brakes a little bit and obviously I got some crap from um being like expecting too much out of him it's like why not it's a top prospect I have some fun with it he's not going to see this is not going to get to his head and and they hope he does well then I look smart that's all that matters yeah I like so you get the first pitch there though honestly like be aggressive be you know I we talked about it be like Cory Seeger be you know selectively aggressive yeah aggressive early that is good call when you when you when you get to

that's two-strike count you know keyhole the pitcher not keyhole like isn't like make him like you don't guess and then force him in the lane but you know don't expand his own and you know and really working at bat and I like the aggression and I like it early because right now there is no book on him there's he is whatever he wants to be so you know he they could have told him hey we just want you to swing as much as possible today get it five at bats you know we know you can work a walk but let's let's see you try and you know be aggressive as the as the lead off hitter today yeah and big thing for him we got this quote earlier this one Jack Harris had had posted on his Twitter you know talking about the confidence and no read no need to read the whole thing but you know he's the Paula has mentioning that his confidence from AA carrying over here to the big league so far and you saw it with the some might say you know cocky take of a ball in yesterday's ball game but if that's if that's how he needs to play and that's that makes him feel good like not

worrying about outside noise or visibility or what people think of him just being in the moment that's how he needs to play I'm I am all for it whatever makes dude feel comfy um and don't ruin that as I said on Dodger territory on Monday do not ruin that do not don't take away the the poor kids joy you would tell you talked about it with Dalton rushing you know sometimes kids need to play with an edge and yeah maybe they had they had taken that away a little bit it would be interesting to see both Dalton rushing and the Paula in the lineup or not in the lineup but you know in the clubhouse together you know sharing a dugout that could certainly lead to some fun clips but you know I you know I I think you know Mookie said it the other day it's nice that he's giving kind of a youthful exuberance because you know everybody in that clubhouse is over 30 years old they've all been there and done that so it's it's fun to have you know and even for fans it's a breath of fresh air to see a kid like really try to earn his you know earn his

stripes and have a lot of excitement over just working a walk I I mean I love it yeah yeah man excited about it get on base yeah again that's that's whatever makes baseball fun for you do it do it so simp simp simpus is saying well I always mess up how to say it but um pop this one up on the screen uh it says he needs the uncock just a little not a little be cocky let him be cocky why not one yeah exactly why not if it makes him play better and I ain't hurting anybody like I don't think he's he's not being cocky to the other team I don't think that like like the one soda type of thing I don't even think any of that was ever really directed towards a picture it's more of like this is how I'm feeling I'm feeling myself right now yeah I'm feeling good about what I'm doing in the box that was a good take in my estimation so yeah have some fun with it um another thing we didn't talk about so much

on the offensive side but you know I did mention uh uh uh Tommy Edmond got a knock his first hit in seven games but we also have a nice little breakout for Freddie Freeman a three hit game for Freddie said that he had no knee pain today and more importantly made a mechanical tweak got his swing synced back up it did look a lot better than it had over the previous you know we can change something like that um where's it yeah he was his first hit in I think like 29 at bats and he had his well those three six hits in September altogether uh which is not an idea when you are on the 15th of September so things have been pretty bad pretty dire for a while for Freddie Freeman but now getting Freddie going again getting you know you mentioned Mookie obviously struggling right now months he's you know finding ways to impact the game not as not as consistently as he was probably in the middle part of the air which just kind of feels like it's par for the course for months you know he's

going to make an impact in October you know Freddie's going to make an impact in October I'm getting him feeling right now um goes a long way would you like about uh Freddie's A B's today that just that he got the ball in play like you said the the swing looked better I think it's hilarious that he just said oh yeah I made a mechanical tweak and now my swings back I think that's just really funny because it's like of course that's how it works for Freddie Freeman yeah um maybe not all the way back but you know it's back enough to get a several knocks in one game no it's good because it was also affecting the defense a little bit you know he just he was laboring on the base paths in the field I think you know he takes a lot of pride in his defensive capabilities so you know I like that he's feeling better obviously because he can contribute to the team you know and if he doesn't think the knee is going to be a problem going forward awesome 10 to 9 is his weird man it just goes away when it goes away so if we get uh healthy as version of Freddie going into October you

know we're going to be in a really good spot I mean granted he's also played through worse but I mean even the ankle he didn't angle then he kind of looked a little bit better with the the bum angle but he did with the knee I mean you have to wonder if that that kind of kept him staying back a certain way um yeah I don't know but again big big the steps in the right direction for him three hits start to get the confidence going and if it was a mechanical change that led leads to this lead to a hot stretch uh let's go for Freddie we got 500 Yen super chat for mr Yoda one in the chat thank you very much uh two parts of it one I want to focus on the Freddie but say now want to Paula to do that to the Padres next week which is you know his little own Soto shuffle and um still think Freeman is missing his power altogether yeah the the I think he has only like two homers or something in the second half like like Freddie with pop is a lot better but if you have Freddie dropping three hit games in October let somebody else drive him in tails hot right now let

somebody else drive him in yeah yeah that that's why the Freddie no but yeah it's my the Freddie no power discourse was always so strange to me because I don't remember the Dodger signing him to be a power heading for his basement I remember them signing him to be closed with 300 hitter with double like in just a doubles machine so but like that's my expectation whenever I see Freddie step up to play professional at that's in a double he's still able to do that so I you know if the knee was bothering him and now it's not let's go yeah let's go let's all we're looking for not too much else to add really uh game wise uh if anybody else has anything now is the time to drop your thoughts in the chat I had to start this from much earlier in the show JC Gonzalez saying this is of course on the heels of Tanner Scott's ninth inning uh what's called saster but tight rope uh says at this point I'm going to assume Roki is going to be the closer of this team come playoff time assuming he comes back healthy um I think he will be in the mix I even if the post season started tomorrow and

let's say Roki is on the roster like he pretty much will be um we got some Roki news of the day that I'll pop up in just a second but I don't think Dave goes to Tanner Scott as his anointed de facto you are going to save every game night thinning option I think you're going to have you know the line nobody's getting a lion's share of ninth inning it's going to be matchup bases going to be if Tanner Scott makes sense in the seventh inning for this run of hitters he's getting that inning and if it ends up being Brock Stewart in the ninth if it ends up being you know Vesia on the night that ends up being I mean more likely a run of hitters in the seventh is going to go to Vesia so you have more opportunities to save Tanner Scott for the ninth but Roki 100% going to be in that mix um and the news of the day on Roki amongst other bits and pieces this from Sonya Chanda covers the Dodgers for mob.com so we had show Hayotani hitting off a tee today first time he has it off a tee so that is good that is big Andy Paas hitting off a machine today

and then he will upgrade to the traject machine which throws the baseball very hard that is good news there and then Roki Saki there was the potential of him or for him to be activated on Thursday there was a little bit of discourse a pregame yesterday about whether or not they would actually do that and Dave hey Davis asked like it's one of the reasons you would not activate him is maybe because of the humidity here in Cincinnati and humidity on a blister on your fingers is not a winning recipe so the thing is if anything aggravates that blister for Saki he's pretty much done for the year so giving just letting him throw a little bit of a I guess it's not even a short live I don't know I'm assuming it's not going to happen and since he but they they said on the broadcast he might throw upwards of like four innings tomorrow and then I think beyond that you know I fall goes well he'll be activated over the weekend and then as you see it's CBD whether or not

he's gonna need a start a game or pitch and relief I think they got a day off on on Monday they could work work with and you know maybe buy him an opportunity to not start a game just because I need to see him in the bullpen but I don't know I think that's really focusing on that we circle back on that I I would rather see him in the bullpen than starting a game because that's going to be his role yeah I also I talked about this last week you know or maybe was right when you got the blister I'd rather just see him in the bullpen because if you have a blister the less you throw the less chance you have to aggravate it so I you know if you throw 80 pitches that's that's 80 opportunities to aggravate it that one day whereas if you're just a relief pitcher it's 15 to 20 opportunity it's a quarter of the chances so I'd rather him just being the bullpen because it would just limit the exposure of the blister yeah but we'll see I mean they're they're they're not going to push it

with he tried throwing with not hit the finger cover on yeah the germa bond it's germa bond not let's get yeah germa bond on it it's they'll they'll figure something out but yeah I don't expect Tanner Scott to be the I don't expect Edwin Diaz was going to be the de facto closer that's not even happening that he they're talking he might not even make the roster depending on how he does I think tomorrow in his rehab appearance with O.K.C. yeah so one thing's returned once Edwin Diaz once Edwin Diaz was removed from the picture as the de facto closer there I don't I won't think there's gonna be one it'll be matchup based as Dave has done in the past he'll figure it out and you know he'll have guys that he prefers to go to in the ninth or eighth inning but there's not going to be anyone that's for sure going to be there and if it's Rocky I honestly mentioned it with his fastball the way it's playing right now I could see it I'd like it yeah fastball with

with the way he's throwing that that splitter and yeah you break off a curveball or sorry a slider if you need to hell yeah that's we are in a good spot I think the ceiling goes I think the floor sorry the floor for Rocky goes up a lot yeah when you when his fastball is playing like that yeah last year he felt he felt a little bit like a lottery ticket you know you're you're hoping you would win each day and and Dave was ready quickly thankfully last year to you know pull the plug when it was obvious he wasn't right because there was wasn't just the stuff last year there was still a lot of weakness in his mental game and his ability to like we were talking about earlier you know battle back when you don't have your best stuff not let uh uh start to a game like we saw Yamamoto that would un that could have unraveled likely would have unraveled Rocky last year now particularly in the second half of the season he we we actually visually visibly saw Rocky Sasaki battle back from those kind of endings an error leads to you know could have got out

of an inning and all of a sudden there's runners in the corners and him finding a way to get out of it so that is that is good hopefully we get some good news out of Sasaki and uh you know he joins this team when they come back home all over the weekend we got our buddy snide dog in the chat asking for a progress report how are we doing yeah I mean give us a B I feel better now that turned on the brightness it was really hurting my eyes it was a little bright it was a little bright there at one point I was gonna mention something but there was a lot going on at the top of the show we also got an update because uh Ray Ray Soto had asked snide dog what's on the menu so um apparently they went the lazy route just made a Thanksgiving-type dinner because you know when you don't know what to make you make Thanksgiving dinner for old people yeah I don't like cranberry sauce I know we'll end up having this discourse I'm sure since now we have Spiegel offseason that's an offseason show yeah

yeah no no thank you no thank you on the cranberry sauce or the green beans if I'm being honest give me turkey give me stuffing give me mashed taters Bob is your uncle and he also says a pop pop all says free Bobby Miller that's another guy I would like to have seen get into one of these games so far uh I was hoping we'd see him over Brock Stewart tonight I'm not gonna lie I know that might seem blasphemous but with a four run lead in one and if you're gonna deploy a variety I kind of wanted to see Bobby Miller because you know he's also kind of a wild card right now it's not only because you know is his role as a starter or reliever I think many of us would believe he's a reliever ideally but it's been so long since he's had consistent play at the major league level the slate's kind of clean right now for whatever role he's going into so I would have like to see him you know get some action there I think I had argued yesterday at this point I'd rather see what he's

got over Seth Halverson for the rest of the year because oh yeah yeah yeah it's like just let me let us see if he's if he's worth even if you know Bobby is worth even keeping around on the the stay hot team you know with the team through the playoffs not necessarily on the on the active roster um you know this one because I and I like assume me popping up another Jeff Snyder chat is gonna probably upset our buddy Richie I'm gonna go ahead and pop up another Jeff Snyder chats his cry cranberry sauce wasn't on the menu the first couple of times we did this dinner but Peggy almost murdered me for not providing it's now we do can't can't upset Peggy no yeah yeah Peggy is it Peggy Sue it gets got to be like Peggy I mean it's probably a Peggy Sue yeah uh we got Don Davis what do you make it Casa de Pacias when you don't know what else to make so I will inherently usually have like grilled chicken I try to make it once a week and have that be part of some sort of

easy to throw together meal it could be a chicken it's like salad it could be chicken and rice it could be cut up the chicken and throw it in as you know some uh fedachini Alfredo sprinkles some of that sweet sweet parmisi in on top of it that's where my it's my people who watch um Rick and Morty there but that that's kind of the go to when I don't know what else to make or if it's late and you're just like you know this is get done with the evening um cereal give me some honey bunches votes I am a grown-up hey guys hit that thumbs up button for honey bunches of votes and also just do it either way we'd appreciate if you guys would like to show and share and all that kind of stuff uh let's see only good vibes with the question we'll take a couple questions then we will get out of here um who do we think if any is left off the postseason roster uh of the people that were part of the core 2026 bullpen a lot of bullpen questions uh of late

unsurprisingly pop-op and I put together I don't have it in front of me because I left it uh at my desk at work but um we had put together what are assumed you know nine person bullpen um um people that were I think there is a chance here we uh this is a good point we um we sorry I'll catch up to where I'm at in my brain we should see Chris Babich activated tomorrow I think a good showing from Chris Babich could potentially I'm not saying I want to see it or that I hate Jack drier I'm saying that it could potentially knock Jack drier off of a postseason roster I'm not saying that even the entire postseason because you might change the way the roster looks but Chris Babich I haven't put eyes on him but he was nasty during his triple A rehab assignment he was an all star last year they acquired him for a reason I think that could be one of those that's not necessarily

to the question but I I think it's kind of could be a surprising move do you have one uh Rob Leskey maybe I you know I was high on him early but he's kind of faltered at this point you know with Babich coming back like as you mentioned yeah I could uh lefty I could see it um him knocking down Rob Leskey a little bit if he doesn't perform Rob Leskey that is so you know and there was a point where I was really out of him but you know three weeks of new data should change your mind in baseball and at the yeah about when you do it yeah be hot at the right tab you what have you done for me lately yeah it is the name of this game and he has not done anything for me lately and uh Andrew I'd say this a little bit earlier Andrew had a question for us boom uh do we give uh do we think we should give school bull that four hundred million dollar ten year deal or is it like fifty million for five or six years or neither what kind of deal

and obviously we'll have plenty of this discourse after the Dodgers win the World Series but kind of deal do you give Terrick school do you do you kind of base that on his postseason performance no I give him eight years three hundred and eighty million dollars I don't know I was make it crazy this might be the last time they're allowed to do this so like I'm fully on the like just make some unbelievable offer that pisses everyone off and they're so mad that a good dutch did it but like hey if you're gonna push for something dumb the Dodgers should do something dumb before then and I actually like I said before I think it believes school bull to get a new contract under this CBA then the next one so I think he should sign with the Dodgers or I think the Dodgers should make him a unbelievably lucrative offer almost immediately yeah well definitely all the offers are going to happen immediately because everybody's gonna want to get that deal done before what is it

December 1st yeah and the expiration of that CBA uh so what is that that's around like your deals like 47 million I think a year so make sure you throw in also some deferrals to upset the other fan base as well all of it's different the whole thing he doesn't are a penny on the Dodgers eight years is crazy I don't like eight years seven years it doesn't matter like when you when you get that far I think there's like tears you're kind of worrying about not so much like individual years like you know you you have your like one to two years your three to five years and you have like your six plus contracts like six to eight I think six seven and eight your contracts are roughly all the same they all kind of age out the same anyway you're never happy with the last few years of that contract anyway I like nine or ten years is like the different year book that yeah and I mean then you could have you know more conversation then we probably will at some other point but by by signing him or resigning or extending him or whatever you want to

call it like you're blocking some other dudes but suddenly there's not a lot yeah it's like Gavin Stone but you're also suddenly banking on him coming back and being healthy which we have not seen now for two years um and yeah beyond that I mean there's nobody really pounding down the door at the minor league level and the pitching side of things to take that job so um god what do you think he'd accept like a five year fifty there are two hundred fifty million dollar contract and then or no like like a four year you got to like a two give him give him the uh uh the Kyle Tucker contract oh that's right dang it's oh yeah it's gonna have to be a long term deal because you can't do short term because there's got to be a lot of you that if he hits free agency again that you could make this amount of money yeah and trust that's got Boris was thinking about all that kind of stuff yeah hundred yeah give him something great eight years something stupid he's 30 years old

whatever 38 years old as a pitcher I don't know how he'll take care of himself I believe in him I mean there's got a lot of elbows and kneecaps coming at you it is a pretty violent throw it's it's all elbows and he's pretty fine uh we got a 999 super chat from our friend Raul says if uh boobitch doesn't shove that meme I made on the AI discord will be made public now do you guys hear like boobitch get out the way or do you hear boob itch which do you prefer let us know in the comments below but it's important to note that um Mrs. Jeff's wife uh was was laughing at us saying uh boobitch or at least me saying boobitch so I'm assuming she hears I am I in the meme I wasn't even here yesterday whose fault was that but why is it like you and one of the Jeff's why I don't know I didn't see which one it was and by the way what what we're talking
