I oversee one of the biggest resource center in UnitedHealthcare. I see people walk in my office every day, just like my parents. They have no idea about the health care. I feel like they are my uncles, aunties.

I treat people like family. I'm Brian, and I'm committed to care. I told you, I said, Clint, trust me, Casillas, son. We're going to win this game and we did. What is up, everybody? It is so good to be with you. Clint Paseas, Alana Rizzo. Welcome to a live postgame edition of Dodgers territory on this Thursday.

The Dodgers taking care of business. We are so happy that you are here. I know you're shaking your head. But what did I tell you when we sat down for a production meeting in the sixth inning? What did I tell you? You said the Dodgers are going to win. and then shortly thereafter you get Jose Urania giving up another run and it took it took them moving heaven and earth to not lose this game it felt like at some points

but my sweet word not true not true i told you i said clint trust me Pasea son we're going to win this game and we did rate us five stars because i was right subscribe like all of the things we are so happy that you guys are here let's get into the big ticket so I can tell Clint why he was wrong. Very rude. All right. First of all, can we stop pitching to Pete Alonzo? We're just going to start from the top of the game and work our way down. Four fingers. Let's just go.

Yeah. Is he the new, is he the new Christian Walker? Because he feels a lot like the new Christian Walker. My sweet Lord. Yeah, I mean enough. Have a series. Pistol Pete, by the way. Stop pitching to Pete Alonzo. Enough. But yeah, I mean, I feel like we could. really pick this whole thing. I mean, we could talk Land and Nack and all that. You could, you could pick this thing up in what, the seventh inning. You got a Lull Mets situation,

what we call it here on the internet where what was that play at the plate where the pitcher collided into their own catcher? I don't know. That was a massive miscue that allowed them to tie the game. And I texted my friend Moses Messina, who is the biggest Mets Homer on the planet. He was a phenomenal researcher and producer at MLB Network when I worked there. And I was like, what is your squad doing? He's like, it's June 5th. It's just bad defense. It happens. I'm like, well, yeah, your bad defense just won us the game, my friend. Yeah, I mean, you'll take the opportunity to capitalize on their mistakes, right? I mean, yeah, I just, that was a terrible play at the plate. I don't know what the hell they were doing. By the way, I think the biggest thing my takeaway from

this whole thing is I told you Michael Conforter was going to be great. Hero. You're talking about Dodgers legend Michael Conforto. Listen, never a doubt. Everybody was trying to get rid of him. They wanted to send him to the moon. And I said, no. Michael Conforto is going to have his moment. Bullshit, you said no.

I said, I'll never lose the faith in Michael Thomas Conforto. Thomas is silent for fucking Conforto because, you know, you're the one who noted. As behind the scenes here, I was setting everything up. Alana called about an inning and a half of the game. for me and it was it it's it was beautiful theater to have her doing play by play of the game uh i was watching the conforto moment and you could see the relief in the dude's face for getting that because again you could see the stat once again like he's been terrible with runners in scoring position he was terrible again oh for his last 15 at bats to come up in that moment and he

understands all of every eye in los angeles that is you know has this game on at their desk here because it's only 4 p.m. here in L.A. By the way, it's later than 4 p.m., so Alana has cracked the wine for today's show. Good on her, smart on her. But Dave Roberts was asked about Conforto and his struggles with runners in scoring position just a night ago, not even 24 hours ago.

And he had mentioned. That's exactly what I was going to bring up to you. You mentioned that when we were talking about that in our production meeting, and he said, you know what, I still believe in the player. And true to form, Dave, Roberts is very good about understanding who he has, understanding the process of the whole thing. Great Dodgers victory. Clinton, Alana. Yes, Michael Boyer. What's up, our friend? And he got it done. And I agree with you, Clint. I said to you, once Michael Conforto had that

base hit, I was like, you could just see the weight of the world, all of Chavez Ravine just kind of was like, and I know that he is struggling. We've documented that at nauseam. But this was a big hit for him. and maybe this turns things around, turns things around. Maybe not, but that was massive for him and I'm happy for him. And you could see Teoscar Hernan is like coming out of the dugout, like so excited for his boy, right? Like they do cheer for each other. They do as position players and as outfielders together.

Like they want each other to do well. And this was this was really good. And I told you, I told you, I told you that. Ford was going to come in a big moment. I didn't think it was going to take it until June 5th, but here we are. I'll take it. We will very much take it. We'll take a series split with the Mets, a good series overall.

How about this, you know, a tough, tough, tough game, specifically tough game for people and their narratives because you have Michael Conforto. And spoiler alert, I was lying. I had very little faith in Michael Conforto, especially in that spot because... Very little. Very little. You guys on our chat, very little. Clint had zero.

Zero faith. Negative faith. Zero faith. Because look at the numbers. Look at what has happened so far. but, you know, baseball has a weird way of, you know, riding the ship. And this is why you have batting averages and averages over the course of, you know, 162 games. This is why people don't want to throw Max Muncie to the moon anymore because all of a sudden, like, oh, shit, he's pretty dang good at baseball.

Still, the complete game, we don't need to talk about the defense. It's a positive day and all that kind of stuff. Dodgers win. But how about this? If we're talking about narratives, Tanner Scott, two outings in a row. two outings in a row where Tando Scott got the job done. They had mentioned there was a little mechanical fix. They had mentioned that maybe his front side was flying open a little bit.

Very minuscule, but those little things make a difference. And you saw him pumping 98 at the bottom of the zone. He got the save. He got the job done. One run gets on base. One runner gets on base. It's a tough job as a closer. But again, tough game for the narratives to have Conforto and Tanner Scott do their jobs in their spots.

You got to love it. You got to absolutely love it. You know, you're not the only one that thinks that, though, because I'm just looking in our chat. And again, you guys, thanks for participating. We love it so much. Robbie Soto, Tanner has my faith restored. Here we go.

Teo was such a good guy. Yes, I know, I was just going through this thing. It was, you know, they're just talking about how great, uh, all of a sudden, Tanner Scott, well, Emar 915 says Tanner equals heart attack. Okay, but that's okay. He got three, he got through it today. You know, it's, yeah. I mean, this is baseball, right?

And this is what happens when it's 162 games. But again, it's funny that we can pick apart Tanner Scott's performance and Michael Conforto's performance and all of these things. And we're still in first place, you guys. And Clint made such a good point. You guys weren't joining us yet, but Clint made such a good point is like, because the Dodgers are in first place, we have the ability to allow these guys to figure things out in game. There's a lot of teams that don't have that luxury that they have to figure it out in a

bullpen session or on the backfield someplace or AAA. or someplace else with the Dodgers because of where they are and because of the depth that they have, they have the ability and the luxury to figure these things out in an in-game situation. And letting talented dudes, letting talented dudes people like we, we, you know, there's a motto that we have, you know, in Dodgers Twitter or whatever online. It's trust in Andrew Friedman. You believe in Andrew Friedman and whenever they bring in people, even at this point in time where they're bringing it into 150 different relievers.

You literally got the rotating door. They have no choice. Yeah, they have no choice. But you buy into the fact that they saw something in Michael Conforto. Obviously, you see something in Tanner Scott, who over the last few years has been one of the better relievers in baseball. And eventually, again, the law of averages will figure themselves out. But they have enough time to just let them figure it out. And if not, the playoffs or a little bit before, August, trade deadline.

That's where you really start to. strongly consider the tinker, probably more so in July. And Dave, you know, Dave Roberts always likes to throw out that 150 at bat mark that he likes to give people. It's usually closer to about 200, 220 at bats. And hopefully, you know, we're at that point now where, like you said, you saw the sigh of relief. You saw the demons leave Michael Conforto's soul there so he can get back on track. Yeah, yeah.

It's like, oh, no. Let's talk a little bit of Landon Nack quickly. Do we have to? Just listen, listen. He's been, you got to applaud the kid for what he's doing for this team right now, where there are no other healthy arms really available at the moment, but not his best outing, four earned over three and a third. Three solo homers, five walks.

That was the big bugaboo. And again, the biggest thing, if you want Lando to be right, He's got to have the command. But I applaud him for just, like, doing something. He's just plainly not meant to be in this situation. He's not the number one, two, three, four, fifth, tenth option or option that they anticipated using at this point in the season. But he's what they have.

And, hey, he gave the team enough, I guess, to eventually do, as you said, hey, they're going to come back and win it. We've got a super chat from our friend Richie Flores talking about Land. By the way, Richie Flores, a couple of things about you. Notice you're posting some stuff on the gram and posting some stuff on social. When you take photos, bro, open your eyes. I want to see your eyes, Richie. Half of the posts that you're posting, your eyes are closed.

So let's figure that out, number one. Although we won today, I feel the Mets are very beatable. We gave them the tiebreaker neck is completely over his head. Regular season matters. It does. Richie, open your eyes, take a picture. Safe travels. When you get back to LA, let me know.

Here's the thing, though, about Land and Nack. I just feel like, again, I'm throwing up four fingers every time I see Pete Alonzo with the plate. He just kind of seems overwhelmed. But this is, again, to your point, this is not his fault. These are not the games or the position that this kid should be in. I feel better when Landon Nack is like a fifth guy or a long reliever in the bullpen. Like this is not where he's supposed to be, but we are decimated with injury and they are hurt and they will figure it out. but I honestly felt today the Dodgers were going to come back offensively and win this game, and they did.

But, I mean, this is scary. Like, you can't just have Yamamoto as your dude and have four other guys that you're not certain what you're going to get. Yeah, and we know that's where we're at right now. We're going to talk more about the latest from the injured list a little bit later in the show. I like this comment here from Jason. Series felt way more like a playoff series than that Yankees one. I do agree. It was a match series.

Yankees, the Yankees feel to me like they're getting away with it a little bit in the weak AL East and some smoking mirrors. This was a good series. You're right. The Yankees, first of all, the National League way, way, way better than the American League. I mean, with hands down, the National League is way strong. How the tides have turned in the Universal D.H. Isn't that crazy? Remember when it was always like the American League?

Those are the boys? Like, yeah, the National League is definitely better. I agree with what he's saying about that. I also think, too, like now the Mets have already won the season series against Los Angeles Dodgers, unfortunately. I do think the Mets are a team that we will see in the postseason. That being said, let's just say there's, you know, we end up with the same record or whatever the seating is or whatever.

The Mets have the advantage. They win the tie break. So think about that too. That's why when everyone says, oh, it doesn't matter. It's June 5th. It does freaking matter. And thank you Michael Conforter for getting this game. But the point is, it does matter.

Like, again, 162, it's a long series. It's, you know, the days are long, but the year is quick. And that can come back to bite you. So just keep in mind, Mets get the tie break if it ends up.

I want one more. We got one more super chat here before we kind of shift gears a little bit. But Dry Protas, $5 super chat. Thank you very much. There says Confordo Truthers Unite, Tanner Scott. Also, second quality. appearance, offense, figures out a way to get it done. And that's, that's a good, a good point there. Also, I know one guy you wanted to talk about, because there was, there was a point in this game that

I felt was the momentum shift. And that was that, that, uh, strike him out, will he throw him out the top, top of the sixth play? My boy. If that, if that man is not starting the all star game, I'm rioting. I'm writing. I believe you. We'll talk about this after. Yeah, I believe you. But, uh, we could talk more about voting as well. later on. We don't want to make this show 40 minutes. We're going to piss off the network folks. But quickly, Dodgers now 16 and 15 over their last 31, still not playing a complete brand of baseball, in my opinion. Still need to clean up the product. It was not the most perfect game. But it just feels to me like it's something to keep an eye on over the next couple weeks,

couple of months, anything you're kind of seeing just from the overall brand of baseball. Yeah, I agree with you, a thousand percent. You're spot on. I mean, you know this team better than anybody. You're spot on. It's not perfect defense. You know, we still have to have more production up and down the lineup. Land and neck is in over his head.

Love the kid, not ready. I get it. I've said that before. There's nothing I wouldn't say to his face. He's in a position that he has to be in. But again, because of the decimation of injury, that's what it is. I'm thankful for Michael Cren Porter to come coming through. I'm thankful that Will Smith was able to do what he did.

And we will talk about Willie in just a minute. But no, it was a good win. It was a good win. And I'm grateful and it is what it is. There has been, however, one constant for this team and you nailed it over the course of the first 63 games. And we're going to get to him for a second in this week's Arena Club Spotlight. Clint nailed it. And this is it, Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

And I was like, you're insane. You're insane. he's not going to be a Sai Young award winner. And I have to tell you, you're absolutely right. I mean, this is a guy that could very well win the Sai Young and the National League Clint. I'm proud of you for figuring this out because I know that you're not that smart. So I'm proud of you. Wait, didn't you just say I'm a big time Dodger ball knower and now you're calling me not smart?

Listen, I'm not enough of the wish you are. You are a big time Dodger knower guy. Oh, I can't be both. Thank you. Just slam Dodgers fans all around. Now, yeah, well, one, we got to appreciate our friends at Arena Club here. They were nice enough to send us this Yamamoto card, a 2024, technically a rookie card, tops Sapphire, top of our chrome sapphire card, black sapphire, there's a lot of words on it.

But I love this dude. I really do love this dude. And I was a day one, Yamamoto guy. That was one of my first big streams when I came back from the dead here on the YouTube. and Yamamoto signed in the middle of one of my live streams on my All Dodgers YouTube channel, check it out, subscribe. Sorry to the network for plugging my other show during this. But there was a lot of excitement.

There's also a lot of expectations that come from signing a $325 million deal. But in terms of where we're at now with the Dodgers Yamamoto, this rotating door of pitchers coming through the active roster, Yama 100% has been the anchor for this team, leading the Dodgers starts. innings, ERA, strikeouts. He leads a team and he got that dog in him. And again, like you already called attention to, he was my Sy Young Award pick, kind of half-jokingly during spring training, during the end of spring training,

just before opening day. Yeah, definitely not feeling like a bad pick at all. No. I'm going to ask you, yeah, could he honestly win this award this year? And yeah, it's still pretty early. It's only June. Could he win this award? And who is the real competition for young?

Oh, my goodness. I think your call was spot on, honestly. I didn't know what we were getting in Yamamoto, and I question it, but I agree with you. Think about the fact that there's only one person in the National League that has a better ERA over the course of his time this season than Yamamoto, and that's Paul Skeens. Like, I mean, really, that's pretty great company to be in, right? I mean, you think about Paul Skeins, obviously, with the Pittsburgh Pirates, you think about Yoshidumu Yamamoto. I mean, only Skeens has a better earned.

run average than Yamamoto. So it's a conversation, right? I think right now, those two are probably the front runners. I would give it to Yamamoto just because he's on a winning team. But I also think about Paul Skeens, like it's not his fault that the pirates are stinky. Like it's not his fault of the pirates suck. Yeah. He's doing everything he can. He has fewer wins than Yamamoto. But again, it's because Yamamoto is pitching for a better team. You know, I don't know. I think it's pretty impressive. I mean, he could become the first pitcher ever, Clint, as you know, better than anyway, to win the MLB-Sai-Yung Award and the NPB-Nipon Professional Baseball, Sawamura Award. He's won it already three times in Japan. So I apologize if I'm saying

that incorrectly. I'm not trying to offend anybody. But honestly, like Yamamoto is the real deal. I mean, he had a little bit of a clunker his last time out, but he is the real deal. And I don't think there's any reason why he cannot win this award. And you're like, Nostradon. Thomas, you picked it. I appreciate that. By the way, so this is the Yamamoto card, but we also have another slab pack from our friends at Arena Club that we've ripped from them. So let's check this out. Let's check out. What Arena Club is hooking us up with today? It is drum roll, drum roll. I don't have a drummer. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. All right, so let's talk about this for a second. Alberto Rios. Okay, so Clint obviously is not a massive Angels fan, which is fine. He's a

die-hard Dodger fan. But the great thing about Arena Club is you have an opportunity to just kind of send it right back, right? Right now, I mean, you can get 20% off your first slab pack at Arena Club. And this is great because you don't ever have to actually physically touch the card. So they're always in a pristine condition. So you can go to Arena Club and get 20% off your first slab pack. Just all you have to do is go to ArenaClub.com slash foul. Use the code foul. That's F-O-U-L. That's Arena Club.com slash foul. And you get 20% off your first purchase. So there's so many great. I mean, remember back in the day, Clint, when you had, I mean, I'm a lot older than you, but you had the packs and you put them, you opened them up and you tried to see what you were getting. And if you didn't like the card,

you kind of like put it in the spokes of your bicycle and all those things. Arena Club makes it so easy because you can get exactly what you want. They're always in pristine. condition. If you don't like it, you just send it back. You never actually have to physically touch the card, and that's the beauty of it all. What are you showing us? Like I have like these guys here and these are just, it's a, I love them, but there are a lot of space. I want something that means something to me or whatever. Like I would like to have it. It's modern era. Give me something in a digital format. Although you can get physical cards, by the way, shout out to Oral Hershey as a friend of the show being one of those cards. But yeah, a big thank you.

to Arena Club for helping us out here on Dodgers Territory and, of course, the Fowel Territory Network. Love the folks at Arena Club. Love Yoshinobu Yamamoto. My Say Young Award winner, a winning pick as he should be yours. We can take a, well, we're not going to take a break here. We're going to keep shifting here because Yamamoto and the Dodger pitching staff, they're hurting, but help is on the way. Yeah, but they have help. So let's get to the way. Blue balls. At Big O, when Tire Trouble is what you're focused on, our team of experts says, Bring it on. Now through April 12th, get $80 in rebate savings on four select in-stock

made the jump to hyperspace. Introducing the Lego Smart Brick. New Lego Star Wars sets with smart bricks inspire your child's imagination, taking their play to uncharted regions of the galaxy. With responsive lights, a color recognition scanner, a synthesizer, and an accelerometer,

your child's play doesn't just come alive. It allows the Lego Star Wars galaxy to play back. May the Force be with you. Shop Lego Star Wars sets now on Lego.com or in Lego retail stores. All right, Clint. So Kirby Yates and Michael Kopeck, they should be coming back soon. Please tell me yes.

Go, go, go. Yes is the answer there. I did not get the screen locked in for our display, but our friend Sonia Chen, who covers the team for MLB.com, was amongst the reporters today to note that they both, through live batting practice sessions today at Dodger Stadium. They're both feeling good, and the expectation is that one or both,

could and should be activated this weekend as the Dodgers move to St. Louis to play the Cardinals. There's been like this kind of weird. Michael Kopeck has been ready, but I think they're not like exceptionally bought in to how he's been throwing the ball. Like he's walking the world at AAA. So another thing, Sonia had noted that, you know, coaches are still working through some things with the, with the Kopeck side of things. That much aside, I think there's something to, you need bodies. We need bodies.

And also like, Copac coming back to the big league level, I think he's going to feel a lot better than pitching at AAA now? Don't you think like there's some guys that like could shit the bed in the minor league level, but when they get to the like major leagues are like, okay, like this is for real. Like I understand the whole rehab situation, but I feel like Michael Kopec has had 79 rehab appearances. So I feel like, you know, he's like, I'm done with this. I'm done with facing like AAA guys, like get me to the big leagues and I'll figure it out. But if you get Michael Kopeck back and you get Kirby Yates back, that's going to take so much pressure off of the arms that are already in the bullpen that are super taxed and super tired.

And that's probably part of the reason why Tanner Scott was having some issues. It's part of the reason why Alex Vescia and Anthony Bonda and so on and so forth were having some issues. Like this is good news that Sonia Chen is reporting. Like they're on their way back. And not only Clint, are they on their way back, but Snell and Sassaki are throwing a Dodger Stadium. And that is massive for the starting rotation. Yeah, that right there, that makes me, gives me a nice warm tingle in my heart. Maybe I should get that checked out.

But to know that you're getting more so for me, Blake Snell. I mean, Sasaki probably similar to, you know, Kopeck. I think they're still trying to work out some things mechanically. But with with, with, where am I going? with with co-pec i want to go back to co-pack for a second nine appearances by the way 15.63eera at triple a not exactly what you would like to see out of the dude but i still i buy in as david say i'd buy into the player i'd buy into the stuff and the poise and all that and i try to pretend he was you know never a chicago white sock or or whatever but um blake snow to

who oh michael preck yeah uh for this team to get he was the white sock that's fair for this team to eventually get Blake Snell back. My God, that would just be such a massive boost for this beleaguered rotation. And to get Kirby Yates back, you get very much a grizzled veteran. You get Kopeck back this weekend. Things are trending. Things are trending in the right direction. One area where things are not trending as smoothly once again as I would like is with the Tyler Glasno saga. My God, I agree with you, my friend. What is your opinion on this? Because I'm like, are we doing this shit again? Are we doing this again? It feels a whole lot like we're doing this again. So this was this was the scene on Monday. Dave Roberts kind of said that they they're sort of his

his rehab is on pause. You know, he had a little bit of a setback after throwing a bullpen and it sort of became this thing. He said it's a general body body sortness. The very next day, suddenly Tyler Glasno available at his locker and completely refutes what was just said. He's like, no, I feel great. I feel fine. The back flared up a little bit. Wouldn't really be an issue at all if he was already pitching during the season. So it's like it's a he said he said sort of scenario for me. And to me also, I'm thinking back to last year. It continues a pattern for me where these two sides just cannot seem to agree on Tyler Glasnow's health together. And last year it was something about the elbow. And he said like they made this.

decision. He's like, usually you get players who say we, like we made this decision together. No, he said, oh, and then they made the decision to put me on the aisle. I'm not super happy about it. Those were the quotes that he had at the time. This feels this relationship, very contentious relationship feels like a problem. What is your take on these two sides? I agree with you. I don't like it. If this was the first time I had heard of like, well, we're going to make sure that he's okay. We're going to wait a little bit longer. And he's like, no, no, no, I'm okay, but this is exactly what happened last year. Remember, Tyler Glass now said, I'm good to go. I'm ready to I'm healthy. And then they shut him down for the

entire season for the second half of the season and the postseason. He wasn't available. I don't like this. Are we not talking to one another? Are we not communicating? And furthermore, if you guys aren't on the same page, at least figure it out internally to make it look like you're on the same page because this is a problem. You know, I don't know what his issue is. I don't know if he really does feel healthy that he can go out or the Dodgers are saying, listen, we're going to protect you from yourself because he is a competitor, obviously, and he wants to be out there, but the training staff does not feel like he's ready. That's fine too. But you cannot say, no, I feel great. Like, you don't know what you're talking about. Like the left hand isn't talking to

the right hand. Like that, that is, that's a problem. And this is not the first time we've heard of this. Yeah. So that's the issue I have with this entire thing is I feel like one of the things about this Dodger front office and certainly about Dave Roberts is they're so good at communication. And player communication from the front office and the manager is so important. Like I know somebody that like the his favorite player or excuse me, his favorite manager in the world is Tori Lavello of the Diamondbacks because he was like I always knew where I stood and I always knew what was going on. So I could prepare. I can plan. I can plan my day. I could be ready. That's what they want. Communication. I just don't feel like these.

two team. I feel like it's a game of telephone. You're probably too young to know this. Like you take a can and you're like talking about like all like, you know, and you go all the way down. And by the time it gets to the seventh person, it's a completely different message than it was initially. I feel like that's what this is like. Are they not talking to each other? Like what are we doing? You can't have Glass now say like I'm good. And the Dodgers saying, he's not he's not super ready yet. Well, which is it? And like, why are we not on the same page here? At least why are we at least why are we not on the same page publicly? That's the big thing.

It's perfectly fine for the two sides to not share the same opinion of the man's health. But for there to now two seasons in a row be this kind of, I'm going to call it a sort of public dick measuring contest or for the player to openly refute or dispute what the manager told reporters the day. before or the evening before. It's just, it's not a good look. And now, you know, two years into, or year two into a five-year deal, it is, it's an interesting saga to watch. I'm going to talk more about this at some point, probably over the weekend on my channel, because we are already running a little long on the show.

But I did just want to bring it up a little bit. If we're looking at people, we're talking about here in Blue Balls, guys coming back. One dude, he says he's fine. One dude says he's, you know, he's super ready to go. he's expecting, personally, he's expecting to throw a bullpen next week. But again, just the whole, again, he said, he said, or he said they said, it's weird. And it's something we should be watching. Yeah, yeah.

That's really what it is. I don't know. I don't know what the deal is, but again, we're in first place. So this is the shit that we can break down. All right. More to come. More to come. But we will be back in a moment after another quick word from our friends at Fowl Territory.

The picture is actually Chip. We have a new dog by the name of Dalton. That's okay. Chip still needs a home. So the dog in the photo still needs a home. His name is Chip. He's great. He's about 13 months old, wonderful dog, neutered, amazing.

However, we have a new dog in our organization. There he is. There's Dalton is a good boy. He's a two-year-old pity mix. He is so, so sweet. He was the longest resident at the Moreno Valley Shelter, and he's so calm and so wonderful and so loving. He went to the vet today to get his overall wellness check.

We set him up for a new to her appointment. He just needs love. He just needs a home, but we desperately, desperately need donations. If you love dogs and you love what I do with Guidry's Guardian, please donate. Even five bucks, guys. It makes such a difference.

I appreciate all of the help we can get, giddreysgarden.org to donate because his vet bill today was about $750. He's worth every, but we are down on donation. So I appreciate everything that you guys do for us. And thanks for letting me talk about him. All right. So baseball thought road.

Uncork for a cause. These are our peeps. Kelly and Max Muncie. Clint, tell us more. So uncork for a cause is a, a charity outfit, I guess we can call them. They do things with baseball players,

sports players, all that kind of stuff. They've actually been trying to set something up with a Dodger player for quite some time. Thankfully, I've been able to connect now with our guy, a friend of the network, Max Muncie. I haven't had him on our show yet. But next week...

No, but he's always unfow and we appreciate that. Next week, Max Muncie, Kelly Muncie hosting Uncork for a Cause at the Intercontinental in downtown, visit uncork for cause.com for tickets, but it's really cool to see Max 1

be in a good spot, be healthy, be playing well, all that kind of stuff, but also, you know, kind of taking the lead of being somebody that is continued to give back to the community, Los Angeles community and other communities and whatnot.

Obviously, Justin Turner is no longer a Dodger. Now, Chris Taylor, no longer Dodger. those were the ones that were most active philanthropists on behalf of the Dodgers. But Max and Kelly are pairing for a powerful evening of wine, food, and community as they host the event to benefit the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation and the YMCAA of the foothills, fire relief, and recovery efforts. And of course, that is awesome. That is really cool. The event itself, the fire, awful, this amazing.

I think people understand the fire awful event goes. Yeah, I appreciate guys or people, not just guys, but people that have a platform that they do something good with it, right? We have a lot of opportunity to reach. And this is good. And I am happy to support Kelly and Max Muncie, obviously. Now, you're not doing your show, Clint, until Saturday at 11 a.m. Pacific. Yeah. So there's a lot that can happen between now and then.

What are you talking about then? What can we expect? I definitely want to dive more into the whole Glasnow thing because I do think, It's weird, but generally on Saturdays, we just have coffee. Everybody hangs out. We take a bunch of comments from the chat and whatever, so do check that out. All Dodgers with Clint Paseas is the channel. We'll link that in the description and in the comments.

We'll link the uncork. We'll link Gidreys, all of those things that you can do to help out as a Dodger fan. But most importantly, Dodgers win, and we feel good. Dodgers still in first place. We feel really good. Yeah, don't forget, you guys. We're in first place. Like, it's easy to nitpick.

It's easy to be pissed. But you have a really, really good team perennially. So let's do this. One thing, one final thing, because we did have a super chat. I don't want to not get to our super chat from J.Y. Kim. Thank you very much. What's up, Jay, Y. Kim. I like the dog pictures.

Let's go. But asking, they were surprised that there was a weekday game, a Thursday game that was scheduled for an early hour, a 1 p.m. game. Care to explain why there was a 1 p.m. game on Thursday's getaway day in Los Angeles. Yeah, I mean, sometimes it's because the team, the home team needs to go and the home team gets to dictate the start time of a game so they can get out of there and get to the next city in an appropriate time. Sometimes it's just as a courtesy. So that's why. That's why it was an early, it's a four game series, which is rare, normally

series or three games. But yeah, it could have been a courtesy to the meds. It also could have been like the Dodgers need to go because they're going on the road. So that's, that's all it was. That's all it was. You know, four-game series are strange. That's it. Nothing more than that. Dodgers heading out to St. Louis, and they play tomorrow. So they're immediately getting on that flight.

Of course, Dodgers have two planes now because they're pimping. So that's, yeah, I know, it's a circus. That's why they do it because the Dodgers, you know, have to play St. Louis tomorrow. And don't, you know, don't sleep on, don't sleep on the Lou. Okay, don't sleep on the Cardinals. They're a decent team. They're right there in the Enal Central, right behind the Brewers. So it's going to be a good series.

Every game matters. I get it. We do appreciate you guys being with us. I appreciate that there's 340 people watching us right now. Clint and I have done this for a couple of years. And I have to say, you guys, Clint is the reason that the show gets on the air. He is the director. He is the one pushing all the buttons.

He puts the rundown in. If it wasn't for Clint, we're not on the air. So thank you so much. Watch him on Saturday with All Daughters with Clint Paseas. We will be back on Monday. Kyle Glazer, who knows a lot about the Dodgers, but also covers the Padres, is going to help us preview. Finally, we get to play the Padres.

So we'll do that on Monday. Have a great weekend. Have a great weekend. Be safe. Love you guys. Go Dodgers. Bye. At Big O, when tire trouble is what you're focused on, our team of experts say, bring it on. Now through April 12th, get $80 in-reveit savings on four select in-stock
