  Speaker 6: been absolutely incredible. Guy pretty much bet On himself got
• 2:43
  Speaker 6: after it. And now this offseason you're you're thinking, or
• 2:46
  Speaker 6: we're all thinking, like, where are you gonna go? And
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: you know, the only good fit that we thought was
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: going back to the Dodgers. And how comfortable are you
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: there and how excited are you to start this another
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: opportunity to win a world series, especially with who you
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: got with the squad?
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: Now, you know, it's it's different science.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: The first day that I get to to Spring Trainer, uh,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: it was just something different. The atmosphere, it was different.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: The players, the coaches, the way they treat the players,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the way they treat uh, the families, and they go
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: about this business differently. I mean, this is my fourth
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: organization that I have been and it just the hour
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: is just different. When you go around those those guys
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: and and from top to bottom, they take care of
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: out players, They take care of about how you feel,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: doing what you what you love and and you know
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: this is our job, but they try to make it
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: as easy as possible for for all the players and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: the families.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: And that's what I love about.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: This organization and that's why I make a decision, uh
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: when I signed a one year deal, and now that
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: I sign an extincsion with them.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Okay, and then you're gonna get a ring. Have you
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: seen the ring yet? Have you seen like even like
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: a little sneak peek? Nothing yet?
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: No, they haven't shown anything. They haven't not even a
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: big chair, not even like what is gonna have inside
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: or anything?
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, it's probably gonna be pretty Legit probably gonna
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: have like a TV inside the box and show some
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: like the Tao in there, and then your kids and
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: then your and then your boys can all watch them
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: because they'll be like, oh, another screen and they'll just
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: stick it up and they'll be like, wow, Papa.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I bet, I bet it is gonna be It's gonna
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: be huge. That's that's the only thing.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, that's good.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: So going into free agency, did you think you were
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: gonna get more? Because obviously free agency didn't go the
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: way you wanted. You went one year deal with the
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: Dodgers and then you crushed it. You killed it. You
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: did everything, you won, everything you could possibly done, you did.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Did you think you were gonna get more going into
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: free agency? More more calls from different teams, more money
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: from different teams.
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: Yes, I'm not gonna lie.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: You know, after a year the that I have, I
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: was thinking about, Okay, I'm gonna now I'm in a
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: good position. I'm in a better position than last year,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and this is gonna be fun, you know. And for
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: me when when when we start getting calls and and
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: and all of that, they just like, okay, uh, these.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: Team calls and who else?
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: And then like two weeks later these team calls and
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: by the end of December it was only like maybe
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: five teams. But they there wasn't like one hundred percent
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: into it. They just show, oh yeah, we like what
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: we liked there, we like his profile and everything.
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: But we have to wait.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: We have to make trades, we have to make this,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: we have to make rooms, we have to make some
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: move to get more money, or we can only offer
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: one year or two years or three years, and you know,
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: things like that. But at the end of the day,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: I said it, during the season, going into free agency,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: my priority was going to be the Dodgers, and you know,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: we tried to get in contract, We tried to stay
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: close and just moving forward. Just just go through it
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: and make a deal.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: To two kind of questions here.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: When you went through that, did you get the feeling
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: of the other teams really want to win as much
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: as the Dodgers? And was there a second place team
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: to the Dodgers that you were like, Oh, I'm going
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: to Roki Sasaki and think about maybe this.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: No, no, I don't think so, because if teams wants
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: to win, they don't. They don't go into free agency
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: tell them players that oh, we need to make a
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: trade for us to get money and or we need
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: to make a tray for us to have the room,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: or we need to make a trade for this type
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: of player. If you want to compete, you just signed players.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: You make the move quick, and you sign goop players
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: and free agency. And I don't see that from the
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: other teams that were interns in my service.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Why do you think that is? Because it plays into
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: my next question, Tayo, which is our being a national show,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: the amount of fans that will write into us and
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: be like why even play this season out? The Dodgers
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: sign everyone and I remember Rookie Betts told us last
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: year on our show, like, hey, we've got a target
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: on our back. I'm like, oh, it is going to
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: be even more so this year where you go every right,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: every baseball city and it's gonna sell out, and they're
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: going to think you guys are the evil Empire because
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: they're trying.
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, while we play this game, we play this
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: game to get money, that's one right, and we play
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: this game to win, right.
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: So it's not.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: It's not the hard to think the players that are
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: going to go to a team that is not going
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: to compete even if they get the money, it's not
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: happening anymore. Players are willing to take less money and
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: go to a team that wins. And the Dodgers are
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: doing that. They're trying to make.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I think they've building already a legacy. They've been winning
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: for a long time right now, and they don't feel
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: they have the success that they want to have, and
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: now they're just going all in and they're just investing
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: in all the big free agents and just trying to
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: make the perfect team so we can go ahead this
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: year and just trying to win again.
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: I want to ask a question Spring training right around
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: the corner. I know you're gonna be facing some live pitching.
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: You have some new guys in there, maybe an opportunity.
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: You go to the manager and he says, listen, I
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: want to try and face somebody these guys just to
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: see what they got here. I mean, I think that'd
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: be for me. I'd be like, I want to see
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: Sazaki right now. I want to see him. I want
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: to see live pitching. Even if I don't get a
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: hit or if I don't swing, I want to see
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: how nasty he is.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Of course, you know, you just want to try every
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: single like scenario from you teammates in Sosaki will be
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: like one of my not targets. But I will be
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: so happy to be in home play facing him and
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: see what he have and you know, really exciting for
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: him for the team and this season.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: Rokie ask for number thirty seven. Now technically he hasn't
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: made the team yet. He's on minor league, minor league camp,
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: you know, in big league invite.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: But did he ask for number thirty seven?
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: Not yet now yet?
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: I think he asks for Meggie's number. I think that's
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: that he's gonna.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: Well, what do you think? What do you think he's
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: gonna have to buy for me? Because MIGGI is technically
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: making more than he is. And what would he have
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: to buy for you if he if Miggy said, no,
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: go get thirty seven from Tayo, what would he have
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: to buy for you?
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: I don't think I would ask for anything. Uh, it's
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: just a number for me. I mean, I know I
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: want like every player has a favorite number for me.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Now it's thirty seven, obviously, But if I have to
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: pass this to him, I will pass this.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: To him with no problem.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I don't I don't pay attention or I don't listen
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: to those kind of things. If I have to wear
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: a different number, I wear a different number. Is not
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: gonna ask for anything.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: Either, Okay, Okay, So it's all about the team vibes.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: I like that talking about Team Vibes. Show Hey's show

  Speaker 2: tight or still are with Flatty Junior based off our
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: combo on you know, free agency. I'm like, I know
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: he's going to be expensive. Why isn't Flatty signed up
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: to a ten year contract? What do you think ends
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: up happening? Do you think at this point he's a
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: year away, he's going to be doing a little dance
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: since he saw what Sodo got and he's only a
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: year older than him heading into free agency next year.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Honestly, I don't know when you have a player like
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: that and he's he's everybody talk about his body, but he.
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: Just just like that.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: He just.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: Not the way you want it to be. But he
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: still plays and he plays every day. Like the last
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: three years, I think he's been playing more than one
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty games and he's been healthy. I don't
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: know why it hasn't been an extension with the Dodgers.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: And at this point, you know, sometimes as a player,
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: when you don't see the organization try to keep you,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: you get a little angry, and I think as normal
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: and I don't think the Blue Jays one one that
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: will happen to Bloody Tublati honestly, and hopefully they can
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: make a work because he want to stay. He want
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: to stay as a Blue Jays and just being there
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the whole career. But you know, you know at the end,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day is business and you
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: have to do what is best for you and your family.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: Toyo, take us to Seattle because we just there's a
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: big article that just came out and it said Seattle
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: is the toughest park to hit, not just home runs,
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: but the toughest park to hit in. It causes more strikeouts,
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: it causes less hits, less home runs.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Do you believe this? And what do you think the
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: reason is? If you do? For me?
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: Uh is uh that I couldn't see you know when you.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Step in the botox box. Uh, you trying to see
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: the picture straight right? And for me it was like
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I couldn't figure that out. I always seeing myself crooked.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: It's either the picture was like like behind me or
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: on the other side of the mound. It was never
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: straight like the other stadium. Never feel the same. And
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: when I play there, my numbers show show it. It
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: just I could have hit like four heads in the
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: day before on the road, and the next day I
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: get to Seattle, and it just either I hit the
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: ball hard, don't get hits, or I just strike out.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: For me, was that I couldn't I couldn't figure it
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: out how to see the picture like in line with me,
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: I always see a crooked for some reason.
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: Do you have any idea, like did you ever like
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: stand out there when nobody was out there and see
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: if the mound was a little off. Did you think
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: it was maybe the batter's eye, how it's kind of
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: at a different angle. Was it the sun any any
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: like reason you think that is.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: I was watching videos of like trying to figure it out,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: and I watched some some videos and it was the
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: body the bodys Bucks was.
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: A little crooked.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: But and then I went the next day and just
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: trying to stay online. Even if I see myself like
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: crooked and the bodice Bucks and still feel the same.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: So it was.
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: Something I don't know.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: It is great to play over there because the fans
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: and the city and everything, but doubt part, I couldn't
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: figure it out.
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: It was a hard time.
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: For me, all right, last thing before we let you go.
• 19:52
  Speaker 6: Do you think you will defend your home run Derby
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: Championship next year if you get asked to do it?
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: Uh? Right now, right now, at the moment, I don't.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: I don't think I'm gonna go, But I don't know
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: if I changed my.
• 20:08
  Speaker 6: Mind at least, so you're saying, you're saying there's a chance,
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: Okay to s I got the chance.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because I want if if I'm gonna do it,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: I wanted to be in the Ultar game.
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: Yeah that makes sense.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: If yeah, I don't want to go just for the
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: for the derby. If I'm going, I have to be
• 20:28
