It is June 30th. We are a month away from the deadline. So are you thinking, starting pitching, even if those guys are coming back?
Today afternoon to you, everybody. Welcome to Dodgers Territory. We are psych that you are here.
I'm Alana Rizzo. That is Clint Paseas. Thanks for being here. Rate is five stars. Like, subscribe.
YouTube any place you get your podcast. We appreciate you guys very much. And don't forget,
you guys, we have merchandise. Now, you know you're making it really big in the world,
Clint, when you have merchandise. And Dodgers Territory does go to Dodgers Territory Shop.com or click
the store button right here on YouTube and support the show and style. We appreciate you guys
very much. Lots to talk about. Let's get to it, the big ticket. All right. I don't know where the heck
June went, Clint Paseas, but here we are. June 30th, the final day of the month, the calendar
switches to July tomorrow. We are past the halfway point of the season, the regular season for
the Los Angeles Dodgers. 17 and 10 in June. Did you like what you saw overall?
Listen, when you end the month with the best record in the National League West, with the best
record tied for the best record in all of baseball, you have to like what you saw. However,
I love the nitpick. People think I'm negative, but just pointing out some facts here.
Overall, the team regressed a little bit in the month of June. He had some
Some June gloom, if you will.
I'm going to put a lot of stats and numbers on the screen.
Shout out, intern, Henry, for helping us out with this.
We'll lightly glaze over, or gloss over.
That's not glazing over these numbers here.
But let's focus on the red there.
Again, down to just a little over five runs per game when they were closer to six runs
over the first couple of months of the season.
Again, overall, offensive production down.
You see that the red on Freddie,
Muky, Teo.
Not very good on the OPS front there.
Some big performances.
You see, Andy Pa has Max Muncie in particular,
kept this team afloat,
kept this team winning baseball games in the month of June.
If you guys want to look through all those numbers,
go ahead and pause the scene there.
But, yeah, I mean, all told,
I would not have expected them to come out 17 and 10
with those kind of numbers.
And, of course, playing better teams
and all this kind of stuff, teams with winning records,
you can't ask for much more.
Andy Paix is unbelievable.
The OPS is through the roof.
You look at a couple of the numbers
if you want to throw that screen back up there.
I mean, and Freddie will admit that he has been grinding, right?
He's been grinding the entire month of June.
I mean, Shohei, certainly down by Shohei Otani standards.
Mookie down on the OPS front, Will Smith down on the OPS front.
Teo really down on the O.
I mean, Freddie was like, that's drastic, right?
Yeah.
an OPS over 1,000 from opening day to May 31st and then in June down to 557 OPS.
That being said, this is a team that still has the best record in baseball tied with the Detroit Tigers.
Neither one of those teams are playing today.
But the point is, we are still at the top of the division.
We are still with the best record in the National League.
It's easy to nitpick.
But my goodness, if you don't have all of your guys, I mean, imagine when these guys get going again.
You know, when the movies and the Frighting.
and the showhays get going again.
And even by most standards, they're still going, right?
They're not going to the level that they want to be going,
but I'll take a 17 and 10 record in June.
If you could just stay afloat and be above 500
and continue to kick butt and win every single series
up until the All-Star break, I'm fine.
Like, I have nothing negative to say about what they did in June.
Yeah, I will happily go like one for 15 as a hitter.
As long as my team is winning ball games.
That's all that matters.
win ball games, give yourself a solid lead in the division, give yourself the best chance to have
home field record, home field advantage in the postseason. We know they're getting there.
Jen said, boy, are we spoiled or what? Well said from Jen there. That's just what we're talking about.
But as we wrap up the month of June, I figured we should at least give some loves, give some points,
look at some surprises or standouts from the month. I'll lead us off. And I wanted to do one each,
but I felt like I couldn't pass up the opportunity to give some love to Justin Rebleski,
who had, this is not my official pick, but had himself a hell of a month of June,
kind of picked up where Ben Casperius sort of fell off a little bit in June.
This team would have been, that record would have been much worse if it wasn't for Robo
piggybacking off of Shohei Otani.
So, not Otani, sorry, just piggybacking so well posting us, as you see on the screen there,
2.73 ERA in five outings in the month of June. That's huge. That is massive for this ball club.
Well, I think he's been the biggest surprise in terms of that whole cliche of next man in, next man up mentality.
Like the guy that's going to have to pick up the slack or, you know, do more than he has in the past just because of the injuries to key guys, guys that have gotten the big contracts, guys that have had the names.
And Justin Robleski's done exactly that. I mean, this is a guy that I wasn't sure what
we were going to get from. I've said that before. You've always been high on him. You know, I was like,
well, let's see what these guys do in terms of, you know, these AAA guys that are going to have to be
filling in back in the day when we thought, you know, against the Padres, it was going to be like,
what, Dustin May or Rebleski and I don't even remember Landon Nack. I don't even remember who the
heck started that series against the Padres. But it wasn't the three I anticipated it being. And
Robo's done a great job. Mine is also a pitcher, but he's a little bit more well known. And that's
Clayton Kirshott. Clayton Kirchall with a 228 ERA in the month of June and just three strikeouts
shy of 3,000 for his career. I mean, his last three outings have been unbelievable. We just mentioned
the ERA there in the month of June. The guy is going to get three strikeouts at home. You're going
to be in attendance against the Chicago whites. And I don't care what freaking team it's against.
Somebody the other day I said, oh, my goodness, Clayton Kershaw. This was prior to the start against
Colorado. He was like, oh, yeah, but it's against, you know, when he had the five strikeouts.
Oh, it's against the Rockies. I don't care because the majority of the 2,997 that Clayton
Kershaw has now are not against the Colorado Rockies. You know, it doesn't matter. It's over the
course of his career, over the entire body of work, appreciate what we are witnessing and appreciate
the fact that it is all in a Dodgers uniform. He is going to make history again at home in front
of the home fans and whether this is his last year or not, the next stop is Cooperstown. So he is
my surprise of the month. 2.28 ERA. I'll take it. Kirsch. Let's go. Yeah, when we're, again,
I like to flashback to spring training time and we're having those conversations. We asked
a few guests as well, guest writers. Like, what does this team get to do with Kershaw? Where does he
fit in the mix? And now we're looking here in June. It's like, no, this is a guy that once again,
Dodgers desperately need Clayton Edward Kershaw to be good in that starting rotation.
And he is doing it.
He's playing the stopper when he needs to.
He's playing the finisher when he has to.
He's been absolutely terrific.
Another guy who was terrific for this team in the month of June.
We already talked a little bit about him.
But you've got to talk about Max Muncie because this team would have been ass without Max Muncie.
And his 24 runs batted in over the month of June.
And of course, we're trying to get him into the All-Star game.
And I saw this graphic go up from the guys over the judge.
I mean, if this doesn't make you get on your computer and vote or get on your phone and vote,
I don't know what the heck will because people love to hate Manny Majato,
okay, especially Dodgers fans.
And I can understand, man, he hasn't really ingratiated himself amongst the Dodger fan base.
I get it.
But if you look at the overall stats between Muncie and Machado by M&M and M&M, this is pretty
incredible.
I mean, if you look at the war, I mean, it's pretty damn close.
And Max leads a lot of the category.
I mean, there are categories that Mani,
leads as well. I get it. But this is pretty impressive, right? And this is a guy that Mani came up as a,
you know, left side of the diamond infielder. Max really didn't. And he's playing a really good,
really good third base right now. His defense is improving. Obviously, two grand slams in the month of
June. And there you have it. Machado has more errors than Monty. All right. You know, Roy is strata
4764. We appreciate that. Who I hope if you are in the service, sir, thank you for your service.
But, you know, whatever.
I'm saying, let's get Max to the All-Star game.
Will Smith better freaking be there as a starter.
Let's get Max to the All-Star game.
He certainly, certainly, certainly deserves it.
Yeah, Phase 2 open today.
I think it's today runs through Wednesday.
And fans, you've got to do it again.
Obviously, Dodgers fans can do something really, really funny
and vote like most of the team in as starters.
I don't like that.
I would rather see equal representation.
definitely Will Smith.
I think if you deserve it, you should be there.
I mean, I think you look at the, and again, I understand it's a popularity contest.
I get it.
You know, remember when J.T. was one of those, you know, the final five and the world was like going nuts and we were all campaigning for him.
But I also thought Justin deserved it.
And yes, I'm a Dodger fan and all those things.
And I was working for the team at the time.
But JT deserves it.
And I remember when Alex Wood, you know, got to finally go in as a starter.
And he deserved it, you know?
So if you believe that Max Muncie has the numbers and has been one of the Dodgers MVP's in the first half of the season, please vote.
He deserves to be there.
He's had tremendous tremendous amount of production and a lot of success this year.
And to your point, Clint, we wouldn't be where we are, 17 and 10 June without Max.
Not even slightly.
So there's a month of June.
I think we can start looking forward to what hopefully is a fun, exciting, spicy month of July.
First, though, we should hear from our friends.
at Fowl Territory, then we'll be back with rumor has it.
All right, Harry's is going to get an award here, MVP in the shaving world and AJ,

deodorant, body wash, et cetera.
But for your everyday shaving needs, Harris has you covered,
and you look at the pricing, you look at the quality,
you're like, wait, why was they using the old classic brand for a long time?
Listen, as somebody right now that needs a Harry's, I've just been lazy.
Harries, I have plenty of them lined up ready to use.

I got to go get my hairs because my neck beard is sick.
But Harries will fix that.

Jeremy Meyer front end. That's funny.
All right. Storylines to watch Clint going into the second half of play.
The first thing is, how do you think left field will play out?
Yeah, I mean, that's got to be storyline.
Number one we're watching here in July.
It's the same boring thing we've talked about ad nauseum over the last couple of weeks,
couple of months.
How will left field, center field, second base?
How will that shake out when it comes to Michael Confordo being a starter?
Hesong Kim has more than earned his opportunity to be in there just about every day.
We're hearing now Tommy Edmund is healthy enough to start playing some outfield.
So maybe things shake out a little bit.
But if we're looking at those numbers, going back to the last segment,
looking at those numbers and the offense kind of trending downward,
if there are spots to fill in the gaps a little bit in the lineup when it comes to
offense, it's the production that they've got out of left field.
So we need to see this team who's going to step up.
And if somebody doesn't step up, is that a space?
Is that a hole to fill via the trade deadline?
So that's storyline like probably the, I don't know if it's the biggest one.
Is that the biggest one?
Or is starting pitching bigger?
I mean, I think it's always starting.
pitching because you don't know what you're going to get when those guys are coming back.
But before we get to that category, I think what it also means in terms of the outfield
questions and the infield questions is, does that give Hassan Kim more of a runway?
And then does that give Michael Conforto less of an opportunity?
I mean, I think that's a big question too.
It's like everybody keeps clamoring that they want Kim to play more.
And he's earned that right.
But that also means less playing time for Comforto.
So again, this goes back to my question that I had a few weeks ago.
It's like, is he just a guy on the bench, you know, against, against Rides?
Or is he a guy that you have later in the game as a defensive replacement?
Excuse me, in the outfield?
Or is this a guy that you say, I appreciate it?
We wish it were to work out a little bit better.
But, you know, unfortunately, we're going to have to DFA you or move you to get a guy that can give us more production.
I mean, the doctors, all they care about is winning as they should.
So, again, it's not a try-hard league.
And I know that Michael Confort is a great dude, but if he's not getting it.
getting it done and you're just kind of laws of attrition, you're running out of room,
you're running out of time. Yeah. Um, Conforto has, uh, somewhere around 230 at bats now,
225 at bats, something like that. I think we kind of have a feeling even, we keep hearing.
They found maybe a little bit of something with the swing. I don't know that I'm all the way
bought in on that quite yet because he posted an offer in Kansas City where there's a lot of
grass for him to work with. But, um, yeah, I don't know that they,
pull the plug entirely on the Conforto experiment.
I could see them still leaving him on the bench,
unless there's a way, you know,
somebody who wants to trade for a veteran or whatever,
but I think you're going to start to finally see that playing time dynamic
change that Dave promised us about a week and change ago.
You're going to see more Hess on Kim in the lineup, which is good.
And then you're going to see Conforto on the bench and maybe he finds a role there.
And then, you know, he has a one and done in L.A.
Thank you for stopping by.
Here's your ring sort of thing.
Denny Cortez in the chat.
He can be great.
He can be a great guy on a different team, any other team.
But it might be, you know, as a part of the Dodger bench,
which is not the end of the world if he could find a role there.
Yeah, and I don't know if there is one.
You know, I don't know what they're thinking about.
And I think this leads us to the next conversation about importance in terms of
storylines going in.
Yes, the outfield is one, but I think starting pitching is huge because I'm sure internally
they know what they can, at least they have a better idea of what to anticipate
and expect from Blake Snell, Tyler.
Glasnow, Roki Sasaki, you know, whatever they're doing, wherever they are in their return.
But let's just say we get all, not Sasaki, let's just say we get Snell and Glasnow back in the next
two to three weeks, right? You still don't know what you're going to get from them in terms of
production standpoint. This is the same exact question as we have with every single person that
comes off the IL. Are they going to be rusty? They're going to need time to build up. Are they
going to have their stuff? What's their mechanics? You know, what are their
mechanics going to look like. And that cuts it close to the deadline, right? I mean, it is June 30th. We are a
month away from the deadline. So are you thinking starting pitching, even if those guys are coming
back? Are you kind of waiting to see what, I mean, obviously Andrews thought about this way further
than we have. Obviously. But I mean, that's got to be a question, right? Sandy Alcantra of the Marlins.
That's been a name that's been floating around in terms of guys that are, you know, the Marlins
obviously are going nowhere. They haven't been going anywhere since.
the dawn of time. Does Sandy come to L.A.? You know? I don't know. It feels like the Dodgers in Miami could
be natural trade partners there. But yeah, it really comes down to what you were saying just a minute
ago. It comes down to what, not necessarily what the team gets out of Glasnow and Snell this month,
but, you know, if anything, but it's knowing that they're still trending in the right direction.
We saw this last year with Yoshinobu Yamamoto. He was on the sidelines at this point.
in time the Dodgers knew they needed a starting pitcher but they only went out and got one of the
assumption that hey this guy seems to be healthy seems to be the shoulders seems to be trending in the
right direction and we know the Dodgers and with Glasnow and Snell in particular it's in that
kind of same conversation right now we haven't heard of really any setbacks glass now for you know
for what it's worth had a a rough outing at AAA over the weekend but he still came out of it
healthy enough. He's going to make his next start and get that much closer to making his return
to the active roster. Blake Snell is supposed to face hitters at Dodger Stadium sometime this week,
which is a huge first step into getting him closer to a rehab assignment. So all of those type of
moves tell me like, again, barring setback. You have four weeks right now to kind of figure out
whether or not you're pushing the chips in or you feel like you have enough in the tank here
with those guys, Emmett Sheehan coming back.
And some of the other dudes down in the minor leagues,
Jackson Ferris has kind of rebounded his season a little bit.
You have some options in-house where, you know,
Andrew can honor himself and what he said in January.
It was like, I don't want to buy.
And that's the deadline.
I was waiting for you to get to that point,
and that's exactly the thing.
What is interesting is, coming into the season,
you and I had discussed that Andrew Friedman went balls to the wall,
all in the off season, so he didn't have to worry about this, right?
And this is understanding that you were going to go through injury, right?
Nobody expected the 26-man roster to go healthy and go wire to wire from March 31st or whatever
the opening day game was to the end of September into October.
But they're like, if we get all of these key pieces, the Blake Snells, the Tanner Scots,
the Kirby Yates, the, you know, Roki Sasaki's, all of these pieces, you know, back.
And we get these guys in and you get Blake Trinan and back and you sign Tay Oscar.
And Kika comes back in that complimentary role that he does so well.
And then you may not have to make another massive splash at the deadline.
Maybe that's what they're hoping for, right?
Maybe they're getting these guys back at the key time.
And maybe there's just little complementary pieces.
I know someone in our chat was saying, well, it's I will flip you the bird saying, you know,
what about Luis Severino from the athletics?
So obviously the athletics finally spent some money and got Luis Severino.
But he's not pitched well, obviously, for the athletes.
Maybe it's because they're pitching in a band box where he's, you know,
It's like, you might as well be pitching on the moon.
He has let it known.
He's very.
He has a 5.18 ERA, but their home games are in Sacramento in a little league park, essentially.
And his ERA at home is like seven, seven and a half.
He's been very vocal about how much he hates that park.
Sure.
Maybe he would be different in a Dodger uniform.
I don't know that the Oakland athletics are going to be willing to trade him.
You know, Sandy Alcantra, he may not have the unbelievable numbers he had when he first burst onto the scene,
but I think he's finally kind of getting back to where Sandy Alcantra needs to be.
I don't know if you need to go and get those guys, especially if they come with high price tags.
I mean, you might be able to get Alcantra for a lot less than you'd probably be able to get Severino for it.
And there's more money with Severino left as well.
For sure.
Yeah.
For sure.
And you may, and you may not need them.
So this is, it's a tricky situation.
And you also got to, well, we all got to accept the fact that, one, there is a Dodger attack.
so when it comes to the Dodgers trying to go out and acquire these players.
And two, other teams are trying to acquire talent at the deadline.
I figured I'd play around with this again, kind of resetting likely sellers and buyers and whatnot.
This is an incomplete list.
It may not be accurate.
This is kind of just my gut feeling on it here.
But we got the fence riders.
Those are the ones that we really need to be looking at.
Cardinals have been pretty good if I'm looking over the bottom right part of our screen here.
cards could find themselves buyers.
Demon, diamond backs after getting swept by the Marlins,
maybe they should trend towards being sellers.
And maybe somebody like Zach Gallen is somebody that Dodgers can fix.
Boston has been due to since trading away Rafi Devers, which was the problem.
Yeah, right.
I love how Craig Frizzles said that they're going to win more games without Devers than they are with them.
I can't wait to see that.
But this is kind of what we're looking at.
here. There's a lot of teams that are buying. The Yankees really want to be active. The Padres love
being active. Giants are active right now. Tigers right there as well. You know, Rangers.
Rangers have some interesting pieces. I'm looking. Throw your list back up there. I'm looking at your
list and I'm looking at the standings and the discrepancy or the division leads in each
respective division. Yankees raised Blue Jays for sure will be buyers. Red Sox should probably sell
because, I mean, they're, I don't know. There are three games.
of the wild card final spot they're eight games out of the division they already got rid of devors
they're they're just planning on uh you know their youth moving forward the troy obviously is buying
i don't think anybody else in the a l central is buying okay i think i think the tigers are the only
uh the only buyers houston obviously is going to be a buyer seattle's going to be a buyer the angels
are in a weird spot they're probably sellers i can't believe the rangers man i'm really
disappointed that's that's a fraud ass world series
team right there. I'll tell you. No, that's not true. That's not true. I mean, they've had some
health health issues, I guess. But Philly's and Met fires. I'm very curious about the Royals.
Very curious about the Royals. They got a couple of arms there with Seth Lugo, Michael Waka,
who will be interesting pieces come at the, you know, popular pieces for sure. Andrew Heaney with
the Pirates is having himself a good year. We know the Pirates are very interested in trading
Mitch Keller as well for some reason.
It's like you have some arms out there.
But then we come back to, circle back to,
do the Dodgers really need them when you are likely getting back
Blake Snell and Tyler Glass-Zone?
Hell, maybe Roki Sasaki comes back and is a factor for this team.
I'm not, you know, I'm not,
it's not that I'm not looking forward to.
I'm not expecting Sasaki to be in the mix.
It would be a nice surprise.
But then again, you have Amitya.
And they have some pieces.
I don't anticipate a busy deadline, for the Dodgers at least.
Yeah, I don't think they need it.
I really don't.
They don't need to make a splash.
They've got all of the pieces that they need.
You just have to see where these guys are health-wise.
And I think they'll be fine.
So I think Andrew Friedman did what you needed to do.
Do it all at the front end.
Yeah.
So you don't have to do in the middle of the year.
There is one guy.
I do anticipate being a factor for the Dodgers again.

And we are back and we are talking a little bit more deadline before getting out of here.
And again, I don't think, I don't feel the Dodgers will be extremely active at the deadline.
If anything, maybe they offload of pieces like the 2020 season where our buddy Ross Stripling was traded away for,
very little reason at the time outside of to give him a bigger opportunity, but there is one move.
We could see this team make, and it's been very much publicized over and over by Joe Kelly.
By him.
Yeah, Maraacchi Joe Kelly could be an option for this team.
He's feeling good.
He was on with the FT boys last week.
Do you want to listen to Joe Kelly and then come back and kind of...
Yeah.
Shout out Shepaulay.
Shout out Shepotly.
Dude's just crushing a burrito bowl while he's talking to Scott and the guys.
But we're going to listen to Joe, and then we will be back.
But I threw off the mound on, shoot, Sunday.
I got a bullpen tomorrow and I got another bullpen Sunday.
So it's coming good.
It was one of those things where I didn't know if I would be able to throw a ball that well without surgery.
And so far it's been amazing.
strength is there, movement's there, obviously for the first one and the first couple ones.
Zero velocity is exactly where I thought it would be right now for the first time getting
on the mound, especially, you know, it's not like I've been grinding my butt off in the weight
room either because I want to see how my arm feels.
If my arm didn't feel good, it would have been like a waste of time to lift without having my arm feel good.
So now the arm feels good.
it's one of those things where I kind of find a balance of, you know, how fast can I go,
how quickly can I get, you know, velocity back?
Do I really need to push my body in the weight room at this point in time at my specific age,
especially if I'm, you know, only looking to play, you know, a month, two months,
and give it all I got for a month and two months and then let it go.
But like I said, the throws have been great.
No pain.
Arm speed is there, which tells me that velocity will come back, you know, in the near future.
If you come back, will you sign with the Dodgers because they play the Padres again in August?
So you could front hip somebody and then you could go, who was it?
Who was it that charged you that time?
And you're like, come on, let's go.
Oh, Tyler.
Tyler.
Yeah.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
Because that rivalry is intense, right?
I've been known to throw one.
at, you know, close to people the last few times.
Yeah, no, I made it known, which is, people would say it's back to marketing,
but I could give crap.
I come back healthy.
I'm only playing for one team.
Messed Dodgers.
I love him.
I love him.
It's just like, but you know what?
He's right, though, when it comes to listen.
If I just come back for two months and then I have to give it all I've got out of the bullpen
for an inning every time I come out.
and have maximum velocity for two months.
Yeah.
And that's what he's working toward.
Why not?
If he can be effective, obviously.
Like, I don't want him out there just, you know, all over the place,
not being able to locate hidden dudes.
But I'll take a healthy, accurate Joe Kelly.
Yeah, I mean, with Joe Kelly, he doesn't really need to be accurate either.
That's the funny thing.
He could, the ball could be wild and then he could, you know,
break off a nasty curveball and find the zone and get his case.
But the important thing is this is just an option.
This is somebody who is going to be better for the team than a Neil Davis or whatever his name is, or Luis Garcia, who was designated for assignment over the weekend.
This is somebody who has been there, done that.
He has performed at the highest level in the World Series and beyond.
I've always been one of those guys.
It's like, don't just bring a guy back for the sake of bringing him back.
And, yeah, Joe Kelly has a couple murals around town.
He has a mural up at Dodger Stadium with the Pouty face and all that.
He wouldn't be coming back for that.
He'd be coming back because he can still strike some dudes out, give it one more ride, prove that he's healthy.
And right off into the sunset, also hopefully with another World Series ring, which would be his fourth, which is insane.
Yeah.
I would be his fourth, yeah.
One with Boston, too, with L.A.
Is that right?
Yeah, yeah.
Those's math.
Hashtick math.
Listen, man.
Yeah, I'm off.
Again, effective.
I'll take it.
That remains to be seen what they need in terms of, in terms of.
of bullpen health. Remember, we're out with some massive guys. Yeah. In terms of the bullpen. So who knows.
Luckily, trending, you know, trending in the right direction as well is Broussard Radarol. And I think he
would be kind of one of those guys, too. It's like, if one of these dudes can come back and be effective
in September, that that's massive. That's absolutely massive for the bullpen in terms of having
grownups who have been there and done that. That's an important thing, I think, for this team. And for
Dave Roberts. He loves veterans who have been there and done that. I do love the fact that Joe Kelly
said he would take $5 million to play for the Rockies over the Houston Astros. And with that,
let's get to Laslix. All right, guys, I was going to reintroduce you to Ruka today, but good news,
Ruka got adopted. So this is handsome. Hansom is a three-year-old pity mix. He is a wonderful
boy, is super good with kids, super good with other dogs. He was one of the last,
Pups on that day that we rescued him that was going to be he was going to be put down at
North Central just because of space he does have a little bit of a leg issue but he's
actually at the vet right now I'm getting ready to call them and see how he's doing
but it's a very fixable issue but in the shelter system there is no vet care so anyway
I would love it if you guys would share handsome he is a wonderful boy needs an
doctor you can always donate to our cause giddries guardian dot org all right what's
coming up on all Dodgers with Clint Assias

Do that thing.
What do you think about Austin Barnes signing a minor league contract with the enemy?
It's good for Austin if he didn't want to not be playing baseball.
You know, I'm not saying that right, but this is what he needed.
He wanted to continue playing his playing career.
I was honestly starting to wonder a little bit.
You're seeing on social media, you know, obviously him and Nicole are expecting another child pretty soon.
I was wondering if he was planning
and just staying home being daddy
said he's going to the enemy
and I don't know
does he bring the secret sauce over there to the giants
secret sauce is already there
secret sauce is already there
and there are no secrets anymore
that's why I have to change signs a million times
every time you know guys
like change teams and all the way
secret sauce is gone
it's whether or not you can execute
when you know what the sauce is that's the thing
I'm happy for Austin
Austin deserve it's not his fault that he doesn't have a job
right i mean some people say well yeah does he didn't hit no it's like listen everybody if
albert pull host can get dFA'd so can austin barns okay so i'm happy for austin i would rather it
not be with the giants but it is what it is um best of luck to him and congratulations to him and
