On these Petros in Money AM five seventy LA Sports.
Uh following a sliver of the show because the Dodger
game went slightly short, A dominant performance by Rokie Soisaka
and the offense putting double digits up on that scoreboard
in their finals spring training tilt prior to the departure
for Japan and the start of the regular season, a
(01:09):
two game short series against the Cubs before getting things
underway in the end of March. And that's what the
theme of today's show will be Pee a lot of
great sports station before they head out of town to
the Pacific rim hop over the Pacific Ocean for that
short series, but a barn storming tour. Yes, just two games. Yeah,
(01:29):
they'll be over there for a week's duration, promoting Major
League Baseball in an international market.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yeah, two games that count. A couple of games against
Japanese professional teams that will not count. So they're going
to play, like you said, a bit of a showcase
four games while they're out there. I don't know if
the top story of it is on the Dodgers, but
our guests are both on the Dodgers. David Vase is
(01:57):
going to join us this very hour at the end
of the hour live for the last day from Camelback Ranch.
They leave tomorrow, and Dave Roberts, after signing that new contract,
is going to join us right after the announcement. Of
the announcement is at five. We expect him around five
twenty five, so we will say goodbye to the Dodgers
(02:19):
and hello to baseball when they land. You're looking for
in Japan? Is it baseball? You're looking for it?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Well?
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Next Tuesday from Tokyo, Dodgers versus Cubs. Dodgers on deck
with Tim Kaits at two am, first pitch at three
oh five, and we are very happy to be your
Dodger station.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
A lot of Dodger breaking news here p on the Twitter.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
By the way, what's going on, man?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Well, Bob Nightingale just tweeted out that Tony johnsol In
is going to start the season on the IL. Dustin
May is going to be the Dodger fifth jorter. So
that just posted.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Because he pitched so well in spring training.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
So no caatman, no catman early. So that is something
to get into with Dave Roberts in our very next segment.
And David Vasse then tweeted that again five minutes ago,
confirming what Bob Nightingale posted ten minutes ago, and then
just a moment ago, David Vass also posting that High
Song Kim will begin the season in triple A and
(03:19):
will not make the trip to Japan.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Dave alluded to that yesterday.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah, you've been talking about people didn't want to believe it.
He has been talking about it all spring, and yes,
it is now a thing, and I guess that's and
that stuff's gonna start coming out. We're gonna get a
lot more of that, just because they're done. They're breaking
spring training and heading back to la and then the
group of them is heading out to Japan.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
They get the bigger now, they get the bigger roster,
but they they are going to make some moves even
before the bigger roster, and then there'll be more moves
after that when they get back from Japan. Speaking of back,
we are back from our trip yesterday, at least Matt
(04:01):
and myself and our promotions people and social media Matt,
we are all back from our big trip to Soritos yesterday.
And aside from a very low blow comment from one
of our bosses, Brian Blackmore about the attendance being so
pumped up because of the Laker game, which I was
(04:24):
very resentful of and thought about throughout the evening, it
hit me like an anvil. Yeah, it really was, because
all the people there were wearing like Dodger gear, who
were Petrosen money oriented, like the ones at the bar
who were like watching the Laker game. They were all listeners,
people that we've seen at remotes in the past, other
(04:45):
than Johnny who was at the bar, who came and
introduced himself as a first time, longtime, longtime listener, first
time attendant of a Petrosen money remote, was not there
for the Laker game. And I do feel as if
Brian Blackmore said that to be hurtful and it bothered me.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I think it's it's the term on brand.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Pe.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Yeah, I believe you're right.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
It is on brand for Brian Blackmore to say that.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
It really was and there's no doubt about it. But
I thought it was a great event other than the fact.
And I really hate to say this because I don't
know if Kates was having a bad night last night
or something. But I called him on the way home
and I told him who won the grand prize? And
I don't know if you've pummeled that out of your mind,
(05:30):
Matt through your another flight to the Midwest. But yeah,
three day Beach Life passes went to a listener who, well,
let's just say, we would have preferred the grand prize
to go to somebody else.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
She is routinely in pursuit of prizes and lets out
audible groans when her Raffle ticket isn't picked, and one
time complained about what, Matt, what about the early people
when she didn't win a prize, and she'll regularly do that,
and I'll be damned, like.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Why didn't you give anything to the people who were
here early?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yeah, have had an iced tea and have taken this
table up for three and a half hours.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
And what else does she complain about?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Matt The size of the steak.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
As compared to whose sneak.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
As compared to steak face, steak face. Listen, you are
in the Moniker steakface, and you're going to get a
bigger steak because they want to make sure that that
face is full of steak. And that's what Bird has
earned with his A one with his I would say
double sized trough of mashed potatoes that I do believe
they give him more than anyone else.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
What else has she done?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yelled at Dave Weese over.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Chris Taylor.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Yes, not letting her meet Chris Taylor and scooting him
out the back door after he was nice enough to
come down in person and be a guest on the
show for the summer tour stop and el segundo for
a solid half hour.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
And what else has she done? There's more?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
And by the way, he had already taken a bunch
of photos with some kids and was talking to a
bunch of people. Was like, yeah, I gotta get out
of here.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
The wife's pregnant, and she got very upset when the
pajama party didn't take Oh.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yes, what about the pajama party? Our Christmas party? Our
boss at the time, don margall, here's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
The Dodgers got jennisoned early from the playoffs. Yes, so
our boss not contest. He'd make up one hundred thousand
dollars or so by sending Matt and I to a
four hour Christmas party to where people got so drunk
and so resentful that they were hurling insults at Matt
and I and throwing tomatoes at us by the end
of the show.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
It was a real mess. It is. While it was
one of the best attended remotes we've ever had, Ronnie
was drunk. Ronnie was drunk. It was truly the most contentious.
A lot of a lot of things must have gone
wrong if you're listening to this, and a lot of
things did go wrong at that remote predominantly, And I
(08:07):
hate to point the finger at them, because they work hard,
and I like our current crop of guys that helped
the show out to put on a great life.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
You know, I do you feel like we were let
down by our.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I think it was it was a two way street.
You got people that work at the facility and that
are there as exhibitors that are taken raffle tickets and
you should not be doing that. Number one.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
That's not well, got ugly. Let's just suffice it to say.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
And somehow, and you know what, I think, sooner or later,
I don't know what my problem is, pointing the finger
at myself and doing a little bit of introspection here. Introspection.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Yeah, I don't know why you let her win?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Why do I want to keep pulling the tickets?
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Will you let that lady win? That lady won the
number one prize? Matt Wow, man, I mean that. And
it was a really positive event. Other than those two things.
Blackmore's comment about the Laker game, which was not true
at all. Oh there's a four o'clock Laker game. I
(09:09):
better get into the beach. No, not true.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Pretty good crowd, right, Blackmore? Laker game on?
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Yeah, thanks a lot, Brian. Let me find something negative
to hurt Petros in the moment. There's that and then
that that lady won the three day Beach Live Fest,
which I can't even get for free anymore, even though
I work there. I think the tickets are non transferable,
so that's good.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
That is good.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
So she's gonna get to see train and maybe I'll
see her. Maybe I'll get to see her at Beach Life.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Oh, I can promise you you'll see her.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
And we could chop it up. But those two things
were very disappointing. Other than that, I thought it was
a great event. Other than well, though, there's a third
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. There's the bathtub, that thing that
drink those though it was funny in the moment, I
was happy in the haze of a drunken hour, but
(10:03):
heaven knows, I'm miserable now.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
It was a punch to the esophagus, as you know, Matt,
And don't you act like you didn't feel it. It was.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
It went down a lot easier than I had anticipated.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
It went down easier, but.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I like, it was okay for about twenty minutes. Yeah,
it didn't. It didn't hit me right away. I was like, oh,
there wasn't that bad. I think between three of us
it was basically like taking a couple of shame maybe
a third of a third of a pine glass with ice,
you know, not that big of a deal.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah, but it felt well.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I got the I got the oh it's schnaps and
triple sec and pineapple juice and freaking seven cups of sugar. Yeah.
But whose idea was combined with well alcohol, Well, it
wasn't really anybody's ideas.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Your idea. You're the one that saw the damn thing.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
It was, Yes, it was organic. It walked by. Somebody
had ordered it and it You didn't have to mention
just the front of the table I had you really,
I didn't have to mention it. You put your eyes
on it and your and that thing like, why, what
in the hell just went in front of me?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
I want, I wanted to say, I've seated before and
just blucked it out.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
I mean, what is BJ's doing when there's a mini
bathtub with a floating rubber ducky in it and it's blue?
Did you guys bring that back one of the rubber duckies? No?
The guy, a guy bought a vincent. Yes, he's an
er Vincent.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
He bought the bathtub and had Matt and I sign it.
Oh okay. He bought the ceramic tub and had Matt
and I sign it and he left.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
He had us away with it, and.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Blackmore said, the only reason this guy's here is because
the Laker game. Did Alisha sign it?
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Unbelievable?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Alicia Devaya? Yeah, all three of us signed it.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah, because the three of us shared it together.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
We drank it out of your Annisoda chair.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, like the like blue velvet.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Six seconds that a real sport man six seconds time?
Speaker 3 (11:54):
How come they didn't posted on the Instagram live. We
got the Pat Nixon thing up on Instagram Live. How
come they didn't What the hell me got Matt and
his dog on Instagram Live? How come they didn't post
us drinking the ceramic tub with Alicia de Vaye, one
of the cutest young sportscasters in all of Los Angeles
in Wittier where the girls are prettier.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
How come do we know the answer to that case?
Do not know.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Where social mediacorded it?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, I'm not sure.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I've been waiting for it all day. Is he helping
his son sign up for AARP?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I think he's waiting for college acceptance letters to come
back to seriously, Well, how come they didn't post that?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
That's like the greatest video ever. That would be viral
views right now. You're right, I've been waiting for a
day and night pressure on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Let me just say this is I search for AM
five seventy LA sports right now, So help me. God,
if there is a repost of Rodney making his way
around Japan instead of us.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Drinking out of our drinking out of a bench pressing
hundreds of us, yeah, bench pressing hundreds of listeners fighting
hard for our for our dollar, We're going to have
a real problem as opposed to what we are going
through now.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
It's just Dodger stuff. Guardians, Dodgers tune in today, Kershaw
tune in Tokyo. Ronnie posted a nice picture from a
Tokyo sight seeing with his family. Looks fun, wonderful. Congratulations
to the Pete family. They've earned that.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
Tell us what we've earned.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
It's been a busy month, man, it's been a real
busy month.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Tell him to post it. Cake.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Meanwhile, I'm freaking hopping on a six thirty am flight
so I can get to Indianapolis in time through Denver
to hop on until freaking ten pm Local Indianapolis time,
because I'm committed to the show and I want to
talk about our show yesterday and drinking the blue Kirasaw
with the triple sec with the gin, with the vodka,
(13:53):
with the peach snaps. Not all heroes a drink with
peach snaps yesterday.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Not all heroes were capes. Matt.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
No, what you've done flying the YA group, What you've
done is remarkable, isn't it though?
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Hey, better enjoy with the bags fly free now, buddy,
well charge your bags?
Speaker 2 (14:12):
See that coming in me? You know what, Kates, some
of us who fly regularly.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Oh no, don't do it, don't do it.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
No, yes, I might. I have earned the status in
which a bag will fly free.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Come look, yes that is.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
That is how high falutin I am. Do you.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Think you're better than me? Because you ain't? Because you ain't.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
My bag will still fly free.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Just constantly clowning, Kates, why'd you even mention it? You
knew he had a way around that, you knew he did.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
But Kate, I do uh sympathize with your sentiment. I
don't like what Southwest is becoming. I like the free
for all. I like putting my foot up on the
seat in front of me in order to cast and
imposing persona for those that want to walk in my row.
I enjoyed that on the boarding process, and they're gonna
(15:07):
take that away from me with assigned seats.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Why do you want to change your back? Right, We'll
be right back with the top story of the day
on a seventy LA Sports, your home of Dodger Baseball
post the picture, Matt, Matt, we got an update.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
We got an update man on.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
The situation, and why are awesome video of us drinking
the uh the what was it called?
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Lucky Ducky the lucky ducky.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Uh. Dave Weeese instructed social media Matt not to post it.
Why because the station logo was in there, so and
we're drinking.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
So I don't know, we're not we're not running the board.
We can drink.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
I don't know. He didn't. He had a problem with it.
So I texted social media Matt and I said, hey, man,
why isn't this up? And he said because of weeks
and he cropped out the thing right right, and I said,
well put it up. He said no, So, uh, I'm
(16:33):
going to invite you and him and I'll post it
at Petrus and Money on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
But problem, I.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Don't know Matt. I don't know, Matt, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Uh, I mean, how many times have we posted us
drinking at Brewery x US, drinking modelos US, drinking michiladas
at Dodger Stadium with Big Brad Nelson, Like I it's
a drunk show.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
I don't know. I'm not a drug. I hope you
don't think I'm raised. I just I you said's a drug.
I'm just I'm I'm I'm wondering. Yeah, it's that sounds
kind of new, you know what I'm saying. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I don't know what he's Yeah, that's especially since he
already cropped out the stupid ass light that's underneath us.
So I wrote, here we go the lucky ducky in
Ciritos and uh, maybe I'll put an explanation point and
then I am to tag BJ's restaurant in brew house
in there.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Well, I don't know what we get in trouble, right right.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
I don't think so like, hey, come at me, bro.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Okay, BJ's restaurant, Okay, I did it, Yeah, all right, okay,
hold on, let me send the freaking thing and then
I'll do it.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Kate, I got a bad feeling about this, so should
I not do it? Is that what you d Let's
do it, dude, Let's do it. Hey, the show before
us is in freaking Japan for two weeks.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
We're working well from out with the people actually friends here,
and Isabelle wants you to know that that Rodney Pete
is there because he's got a son to spend time
with there. It takes up their time, man, and if
you have a son to spend time with, it's going
to take up your time.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay, sorry, that's a real thing. Oh what the you
get that from Clyle too?
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Yeah, she sent. Isabelle sent me that. Would you like
me to read you the text? None brought to you
by your so called Toyota dealers. We make it easy.
Let me read that for you right now, Matt. It says,
p can you please tell money that Rodney's son lives
in Japan and that's why he's already there.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Okay, that's fine.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Yeah wear that, Matt.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Maybe go for the week that you're off the air
because they're running the spring training games every day and you
don't have a show once over the course of a
full week. Maybe oh that week. No, I don't want
to do that. Got to go to the week. We
do have shows that wagg take the shows off so
I get paid. Yeah, still getting for the shows you're
not doing because springtru I'm sorry. Sorry of it all right?
(19:05):
Some our football free agency. I spent the majority of
I got an early flat out of Long Beach through Denver,
prepped the show on my two hour layoff because it's
a drunk show in a bar in Denver, the Wilderness,
you know that place in the Denver Airport. It's like
this state.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
I love it, Matt. It's like going to the Banana
Republic in the eighties. You know, you're.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Exactly right. I was in the Wilderness bar prep in
the show, and then my flight from Denver to Indianapolis.
Nice nice breakup, by the way, about an hour fifty
Long Beach, Denver, about an hour forty Denver to Indianapolis,
and two hours in the Denver airport. Not a bad
way to spend six hours. When he got a prep
a three to four hour radio shown today, Matt and said,
(19:54):
there we go to see because we're willing to do
this sliver. We're not going to tell Ronnie to build
a break, so we can just sit there and you
got to listen to eight minutes of commercials. That's not
how we operate here. We were supposed to do three
minutes of content and instead we did nine. That's the
way the Petro some money show works. Cheat darn it.
But the majority of my flight from Denver to Indianapolis
was spent doing two things. One watching Soakamoto Days on Netflix,
(20:20):
which I found to be incredibly entertaining, and answering, and
I guess for the most part, talking people off the
ledge on Twitter that are absolutely freaking out over free agency. Right.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Oh, you had a free agency Twitter session with your
Bolt fam Yeah, hashtag Bob Hack hashtag Bolt family. So
you're like one of those guys that's like, hey, got
a few hours of a flight, I'll answer all of
your questions right now. Wow.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
And I did not do that. I simply lobbed out
a tweet that said day two wish list Slater deal
gets done.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
Oh yes I heard about this. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Number one and then number two was the arrow up.
Number three was the arrow up. Number four was the
arrow up, and then number five potential value signing free
agents because it appears that's how this front office is
going to operate. And I put a handful of offensive
linemen and wide receivers and edge players and defensive tackles
(21:14):
and tight ends and all that sort of stuff, and
the overwhelming response I got was that this front office
does not know what they're doing. Jim Harbaugh is an
incredible disappointment. Justin Herbert's career is being ruined. Why can't
this team operate like the Vikings and the Steelers and
(21:36):
fill in team that has spent money on the first
thirty six hours of the legal tampering period of free
agency and in a very calm, collected way, I felt
this though I would respond to a handful of them,
and that was a bad idea.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Don't were you defending your bosses, Matt? Were you?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I wasn't defending them. I was just paint the picture
of why instead of being called and that's fine, you
want to call me a charger shill or an apologist
or a boot liquor. I can see why they would
say that, But I.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Why why would why would they say that?
Speaker 2 (22:12):
But I said, uh, yeah, I pull a check with
a bolt logo on it.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Sure, I mean pulled my day when Daniel got up.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
That's right, you have you have you have had a
check cut to you with a bolt in desaber left.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Course, just stop me from telling the truth about the
charges when I ride my free agency store.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Uh but I pointed out, this is how the Baltimore
Ravens operate. This is how this is Joe Ortiz twenty
six years under Ozzie Newsome. Rarely have they ever signed
a big ticket free agent. They are all about comp picks,
letting their guys go and trying to get as many third, fourth, fifth, sixth,
and seventh round comp picks maxed at four as you can,
(22:52):
and drafting, developing and keeping the players.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
What's a call, Matt for our idiot listeners that are
so stupid.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
A compensate to freas is a player that you have
drafted whose rookie contract has expired and they are signed
by another team. Not someone that has been cut by
the team or released by the team with time left
on their deal, but their contract has run its course
and has come to closure and they signed with another team.
(23:22):
If you lose enough of those players based on how
much money they signed for with the other team, the
NFL will award you anywhere from a third to a
seventh round pick. So today the twenty twenty five draft
picks were awarded, and instead of having seven picks, the
Chargers now have ten picks because of the compensatory formula.
Mike william you know, just add that kind of stuff and no,
(23:43):
if you cut guys, it doesn't count. So Mike Williams
wouldn't have counted in that compensatory formula. I can't remember
who did, but Mike Davis counted in there. But that's
the idea is you want to acquire more draft picks
because they consider those to be more valuable.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
They have faith in their ability to draft. They want
to develop their own players at the pro level and
not deal with somebody else's product that they're not super
familiar with, unless it's somebody they are familiar with.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Exactly, like, they really gotta they really want to get.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Well, I'm gonna get on Twitter and just start fighting
it out, man. I understand them.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
So I pointed out, hey, let's look at last year.
You know, we were having this exact same conversation about
the Rams that the Rams were probably gonna totally tear
it down. And rebuild, that they were trading Jalen Ramsey,
that Aaron Donald is retiring, that they gave fifty four
million bucks to a guard and that was the only
(24:36):
big move they made. What the hell are they doing?
And then they have a rough start, and then all
of their draft picks start to come around, and they
make a run at the NFC Championship that comes up
just short against the eventual Super Bowl champions and it
looks nothing like people thought it was going to look like.
At this particular moment a year ago, the Buffalo Bills
(24:58):
remember to both their safeties, they traded Stefan Diggs. They
had to take dead cap hits, and it was supposed
to be a reset year, and all the people in
Buffalo and Western New York were losing their mind because
how can you dare waste a single year of Josh
Allen's prime. There's no resets allowed, there's no figuring it
out with drat And then they make the AFC Championship.
(25:23):
That's the way this works, you know, rarely. Now, it
does happen at times that you can sign a big
ticket free agent or two and it boosts you to
unforeseen levels. I remember that Blake Bortles Jaguars team that
made that big run to the AFC Championship. A lot
of that was built on him being on a rookie
contract and then spending a bunch of money in free agency,
(25:43):
and it all lined up for him that particular year.
So it can work. But to put in perspective kind
of what free agency is like, the Giants just gave
Darius Slayton, a guy that's never had a thousand yard
receiving season. I think last year he had about five
hundred yards and three or four touchdowns, basically the exact
(26:04):
same contract the Eagles gave Saquon Barkley last year.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
Oh God, make it stop.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
I can't say more of.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
This free agency tup.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
So last year Giants, Eh, I don't know about this
Saquon contract, I mean, seems a little rich for us.
They just gave that exact same contract to a number
two at best, probably a number three receiver, and that's
I think that encapsulates free agency. Offensive linemen have been
(26:37):
overpaid over this first thirty six hours. Dan Moore is
the one that everybody's pointing to, signed as the new
left tackle, leaving Pittsburgh for Tennessee. To a ninety million
dollar deal the first two years fifty million guaranteed, and
he had one of the worst pressure rates of any
left tackle in football and allowed twelve sacks last year.
No product of that, of course, can be the quarterback
(26:58):
hold not of the ball too much, but still you
get the point. People are going to pay a premium
for premium positions. The Bolts yesterday as we were signing off,
went bargain shop and Najie Harris has a floor a
five and a half million, with incentives to get that
thing to nine and a half million. They signed a
corner that was kind of cheap that apparently they liked
(27:19):
when he was in the draft. Jim Harbaugh tried to
recruit him to Michigan ge Ortiz and the Ravens liked
him in the draft before he was selected at the
top of the second round by Carolina. And those are
the signings thus far. I would assume in the next
twenty four hours we'll get a Rashawn Slater signing done.
If we don't, I would be somewhat alarmed, but I
would guess that that's probably being put together right now,
(27:40):
And then I would suspect you're going to start to
see some value signings the Evan Ingram's, Amari Cooper's, Kevin
Zeidler offensive lineman, those sort of things, because they don't
want to play the comp pick game. They want to
sign guys that will allow them to preserve these draft
picks and build around what the one thing that you
have to have in order to compete in the NFL.
(28:03):
And you have it with the Rams head coach, quarterback,
Sean McVay, Matthew Stafford, You have it with the Chargers,
Jim Harbaugh, Justin Herbert. It's why the Bills fans that
were freaking out shouldn't have freaked out because you still
had Sean McDermott and Josh Allen. And the same thing
with the Rams last year. You had a healthy Matthew
Stafford and Sean McVay. As long as you have those
(28:24):
two things, there's no reason to freak out over not
getting left guard Will Fries who missed three quarters of
the season in Indianapolis last year, or Jonathan Allen who
was cut by the Commanders on the interior defensive line
and is thirty one years old. Like it just it
happens every year, and every year people lose their minds.
(28:47):
You see, to us forty eight hours.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
You seem to be somebody who is invested in the
or at least feeling like the Chargers way is the
right way.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Matt I don't know if it's the right way. I
just think it's their way, you know, like it's the
Baltimore way. So I could kind of see this thing
come and now look, I think they were in on
DeVante Adams. I feel pretty good about saying that that
they were interested in that deal. And I think he
just wanted to go to the Rams that he didn't
want to play, that he would have rather played with
Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay than with Jim Harbaugh and
(29:17):
Justin Herbert. And I think they were in on DK
Metcalf and wanted to make that trade. And the Steelers
draft pick was four or five slots higher than the
Chargers and they didn't want to offer anything more than
the two, and Seattle just took the higher pick like
they should have. And so I think they were in
on those things. It just didn't work out. And now
(29:39):
I think it's it's time to bargain shop because they're
just not crazy about anything else. That's out there, especially
considering the prices. You know, they might like the food,
but they don't like the prices. Correct, It's kind of
where they're at right now. So, oh God, make it stop.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
I can't hit more of this free agency.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
There's no right way. The Baltimore Ravens just signed DeAndre
Hopkins for six million bucks. Like that's that's Baltimore. That's
basically what you're gonna start seeing, I would assume from
the Chargers, would be my guest that sort of thing.
Is there is there an Amari Cooper out there for
six million bucks? Is Evan Ingram available for seven eight
(30:22):
million dollars to be your pass catching tight end? And
Will Disley can go back to blocking instead of being
a sixty target guy again in twenty twenty five. That's
the stuff that I would suspect we're going to start
to see here in the next few days.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
All right, Well, David Vassy will join us next on
his last interview before being on the Land of the
Rising Sun with the Dodgers. David Vassy, then Dave Roberts,
then a Batchelor Report, and then brought Insider. We've already
written your whole evening for you. Stay tuned on AM
(30:55):
II seventy LA Sports. You're home of the Dodgers and
Chargers Free agency talk.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
That's your somebody. AM five seventy LA Sports live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio app going until seven pm and then
Brewing Insider will be along. UCLA earns a double bye
in the Big Ten Tournament is the four seed, so
they will not play until the third day of Big
Ten Basketball action here in Indianapolis. That means a Friday,
eleven thirty A approximately eleven thirty a m tip win
(31:28):
one game, they're on the semis. Win that game, and
they'll be playing in that final on Sunday. You'll hear
it all right here on your Home with the Bruins
a M five to seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
David Vase, last time from camel Back Raunch Live from
Spring Training, the home of the Dodgers. Day with an
inside look at the Dodgers. This is the Vass Report
with David Vasse. David Vasse our number one guy embedded
with the Dodgers on m FI seventy LA Sports. Follow
(31:58):
him on Instagram and Twitter at the Real Underscore dv
He will have all the latest information on this historical
trip to Japan that the Dodgers are taking and Dave
is taking with him. Second time he's been in East
Asia in two years. Dave went to Korea last year.
They'll leave tomorrow. Last game was today a day from
Spectrum Sportsnet and of course MLB Network with us now
(32:23):
on your Southern California Toyota Dealer Celebrity Online. Hello Dave,
how are you.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Doing great? And it feels like everybody's very excited that
today was the last day here in Arizona and you
could feel the anticipation. It's tangible at camel Back Branch.
How excited everybody is to get on the plane tomorrow
morning and get this thing started and experience the Otani
Extravaganza in Tokyo.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Is it straight to la and then Japan? Or do
you guys go from the cactus to the cherry blossom?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
Oh no, we go straight from the cactus to the
cherry blossoms.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
That goes so that? How about that?
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Yeah, you're going from the desert to Tokyo.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
So how much luggage are you allowed to take? Dave?
Is there a limit on what you can bring?
Speaker 4 (33:14):
There is no limit on what I can bring, but
I'm always very responsible with just one luggage and a
couple of carry ons because you know, guys have to
load it unloaded onto the plane. The clubies, the clubhouse
attendants have to do that, so you don't want to
overload it. And my understanding just to try to avoid
any public mob scene when the Dodgers land in Tokyo,
(33:39):
you have to grab your luggage from customs and roll
it through a secret part of this airport that we're
landing in because of you know, when we when the
Dodgers landed in Soul, Korea last year, fans lined up
that terminal from the point where the Dodgers got off
the plane until they loaded up on the bus. So
(34:01):
they obviously if they that were to happen in Tokyo,
complete bedlum would break out with Otani Yamamoto on Sazaki
just to name a few.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
KT have that. David Vasse joining us right now, so
Dave explain these exhibition games that are in Japan that
we won't be hearing on the radio, and well, where
where is that? Like a tree falling on the forest,
what's going on out there?
Speaker 4 (34:27):
Well you'll be able to watch them both on Sports
net LA. Joe Davis and Eric Caros on the call
for Sports Net La oral Herscheizer had hip surgery and
it's not going to make the trip, so caos pinchings
for the Bulldog in Japan, so you'll be able to
watch those. And I guess the one that's the most
(34:47):
intriguing is the one against the Japanese Giants. I mean,
that's a historic team out there, so that should be
really fun when the Dodgers play that team in Japan,
and you know it's it's an I'm not going to
put an over emphasis on it, but it'll be cool
to see O Tani hopefully get a couple of at
(35:08):
bats against those teams in the Tokyo Dome. So that's
what you can expect. And you're going to see Blake
Snell pitch in one of those games, the game on Sunday.
He's going to start that game, just a final tune
up before he is expected to make the start at
Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Well, speaking of tune ups, Dave, how about what Sasaki
put out there today against the Guardians and if that
tells us anything that we should be looking toward either
in Japan or at the start of the season on
the twenty seventh when the Tigers come it down, he.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
Had Dave Roberts made it official. Sazaki is going to
start game two in Tokyo. And you know, I talked
to Sazaki after the game today and he made it
kind of it made it seem like, you know, I
hate to bring up the Allen iverson practice line, but
it didn't seem like he was up for those live
BP He's on the backfield, and he said, facing these
(36:03):
hitters in live games is really up the adrenaline and
also helped him see how his pitches play against opposing
hitters and their swings. And talking to a few of
the guys like Gavin Stone and Bobby Miller because they
had a front row seat to Sazaki, they just said
that the way he shapes his split fingered fastballs, it's
(36:23):
basically two pitches in one, because he has the one
that we all know, the classic hard split fingered fastball
that darts down. But then there's that other one that
he was showing today that was eighty six miles an hour,
and they both told me it wasn't a slider, it
was another version shaped split fingered fastball. But they did
(36:44):
say everything that we've talked about he does need to
show he does need to have a fastball command to
be able to have those pitches play, and they both
believe that he kind of needs that slider as well,
like everybody believes he needs a third pitch, and the
slider's going to be that pitch for him.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Dave roster moves being made. I know they'll be made
again after Tokyo, But any big surprise is there?
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Well, I guess the biggest news, Petros is that Dave
Roberts made it official that Hayesan Kim is going to
begin the season at Oklahoma City in TRIPAA. He's not
making the trip to Japan. He's staying back. He has
a brand new swing, he's still getting adjusted to seeing
major league pitching. So it's the right call to give
(37:32):
him a chance to be able to settle in and
just hone in on this new swing without having the
pressure of trying to do it on the big stage
and planing sporadically. So that was the biggest roster move
that Saved announced after the game today.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
And then Dave you mentioned how excited Kershaw was about
going to Japan. How that compares to how the guys
felt about going to South Korea last year. Is there
anybody on the opposite side of that spectrum? Anybody all
like butter If you guys are all packing up and
getting ready to take off, that's like they're just standing
there with like a little bit of a tear in there.
I like, Oh, good to go.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
No, absolutely not. Everybody is thoroughly overjoyed to be able
to not only experience one of the greatest countries in
the world. But as Kershaw told us last night on
Dodger Talk, I mean, it's not lost on him and
it shouldn't be on others. How historic this trip is
to not only go there as a Dodger, but to
(38:29):
go there as a Dodger with Shohey Otani. That's what
even Otani's teammates are certainly excited about to be there
with him and experience being there with him.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
On his last night of the United States for about
a week. David Vasey, what will he do? Hump a cactus?
No doubt, Dave, have a great night, and we'll talk
to you when you're in Japan. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
I look forward to it.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
Thanks have a safe trip, David, enjoy it.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Thank you. Hodigato it's good practice there.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
We'll be right back sayonara until the next hour, which
is already this hour. Word number song will get out
quick because Dave Roberts is going to join us

Uh following a sliver of the show because the Dodger
game went slightly short, A dominant performance by Rokie Soisaka
and the offense putting double digits up on that scoreboard
in their finals spring training tilt prior to the departure
for Japan and the start of the regular season, a
(01:09):
two game short series against the Cubs before getting things
underway in the end of March. And that's what the
theme of today's show will be Pee a lot of
great sports station before they head out of town to
the Pacific rim hop over the Pacific Ocean for that
short series, but a barn storming tour. Yes, just two games. Yeah,
(01:29):
they'll be over there for a week's duration, promoting Major
League Baseball in an international market.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Yeah, two games that count. A couple of games against
Japanese professional teams that will not count. So they're going
to play, like you said, a bit of a showcase
four games while they're out there. I don't know if
the top story of it is on the Dodgers, but
our guests are both on the Dodgers. David Vase is
(01:57):
going to join us this very hour at the end
of the hour live for the last day from Camelback Ranch.
They leave tomorrow, and Dave Roberts, after signing that new contract,
is going to join us right after the announcement. Of
the announcement is at five. We expect him around five
twenty five, so we will say goodbye to the Dodgers
(02:19):
and hello to baseball when they land. You're looking for
in Japan? Is it baseball? You're looking for it?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Well?
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Next Tuesday from Tokyo, Dodgers versus Cubs. Dodgers on deck
with Tim Kaits at two am, first pitch at three
oh five, and we are very happy to be your
Dodger station.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
A lot of Dodger breaking news here p on the Twitter.
Speaker 3 (02:43):
By the way, what's going on, man?
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Well, Bob Nightingale just tweeted out that Tony johnsol In
is going to start the season on the IL. Dustin
May is going to be the Dodger fifth jorter. So
that just posted.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Because he pitched so well in spring training.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
So no caatman, no catman early. So that is something
to get into with Dave Roberts in our very next segment.
And David Vasse then tweeted that again five minutes ago,
confirming what Bob Nightingale posted ten minutes ago, and then
just a moment ago, David Vass also posting that High
Song Kim will begin the season in triple A and
(03:19):
will not make the trip to Japan.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Dave alluded to that yesterday.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah, you've been talking about people didn't want to believe it.
He has been talking about it all spring, and yes,
it is now a thing, and I guess that's and
that stuff's gonna start coming out. We're gonna get a
lot more of that, just because they're done. They're breaking
spring training and heading back to la and then the
group of them is heading out to Japan.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
They get the bigger now, they get the bigger roster,
but they they are going to make some moves even
before the bigger roster, and then there'll be more moves
after that when they get back from Japan. Speaking of back,
we are back from our trip yesterday, at least Matt
(04:01):
and myself and our promotions people and social media Matt,
we are all back from our big trip to Soritos yesterday.
And aside from a very low blow comment from one
of our bosses, Brian Blackmore about the attendance being so
pumped up because of the Laker game, which I was
(04:24):
very resentful of and thought about throughout the evening, it
hit me like an anvil. Yeah, it really was, because
all the people there were wearing like Dodger gear, who
were Petrosen money oriented, like the ones at the bar
who were like watching the Laker game. They were all listeners,
people that we've seen at remotes in the past, other
(04:45):
than Johnny who was at the bar, who came and
introduced himself as a first time, longtime, longtime listener, first
time attendant of a Petrosen money remote, was not there
for the Laker game. And I do feel as if
Brian Blackmore said that to be hurtful and it bothered me.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I think it's it's the term on brand.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Pe.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
Yeah, I believe you're right.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
It is on brand for Brian Blackmore to say that.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
It really was and there's no doubt about it. But
I thought it was a great event other than the fact.
And I really hate to say this because I don't
know if Kates was having a bad night last night
or something. But I called him on the way home
and I told him who won the grand prize? And
I don't know if you've pummeled that out of your mind,
(05:30):
Matt through your another flight to the Midwest. But yeah,
three day Beach Life passes went to a listener who, well,
let's just say, we would have preferred the grand prize
to go to somebody else.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
She is routinely in pursuit of prizes and lets out
audible groans when her Raffle ticket isn't picked, and one
time complained about what, Matt, what about the early people
when she didn't win a prize, and she'll regularly do that,
and I'll be damned, like.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
Why didn't you give anything to the people who were
here early?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yeah, have had an iced tea and have taken this
table up for three and a half hours.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
And what else does she complain about?
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Matt The size of the steak.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
As compared to whose sneak.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
As compared to steak face, steak face. Listen, you are
in the Moniker steakface, and you're going to get a
bigger steak because they want to make sure that that
face is full of steak. And that's what Bird has
earned with his A one with his I would say
double sized trough of mashed potatoes that I do believe
they give him more than anyone else.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
What else has she done?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Yelled at Dave Weese over.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Chris Taylor.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Yes, not letting her meet Chris Taylor and scooting him
out the back door after he was nice enough to
come down in person and be a guest on the
show for the summer tour stop and el segundo for
a solid half hour.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
And what else has she done? There's more?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
And by the way, he had already taken a bunch
of photos with some kids and was talking to a
bunch of people. Was like, yeah, I gotta get out
of here.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
The wife's pregnant, and she got very upset when the
pajama party didn't take Oh.
Speaker 2 (07:18):
Yes, what about the pajama party? Our Christmas party? Our
boss at the time, don margall, here's what we're gonna do.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
The Dodgers got jennisoned early from the playoffs. Yes, so
our boss not contest. He'd make up one hundred thousand
dollars or so by sending Matt and I to a
four hour Christmas party to where people got so drunk
and so resentful that they were hurling insults at Matt
and I and throwing tomatoes at us by the end
of the show.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
It was a real mess. It is. While it was
one of the best attended remotes we've ever had, Ronnie
was drunk. Ronnie was drunk. It was truly the most contentious.
A lot of a lot of things must have gone
wrong if you're listening to this, and a lot of
things did go wrong at that remote predominantly, And I
(08:07):
hate to point the finger at them, because they work hard,
and I like our current crop of guys that helped
the show out to put on a great life.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
You know, I do you feel like we were let
down by our.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I think it was it was a two way street.
You got people that work at the facility and that
are there as exhibitors that are taken raffle tickets and
you should not be doing that. Number one.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
That's not well, got ugly. Let's just suffice it to say.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
And somehow, and you know what, I think, sooner or later,
I don't know what my problem is, pointing the finger
at myself and doing a little bit of introspection here. Introspection.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
Yeah, I don't know why you let her win?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Why do I want to keep pulling the tickets?
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Will you let that lady win? That lady won the
number one prize? Matt Wow, man, I mean that. And
it was a really positive event. Other than those two things.
Blackmore's comment about the Laker game, which was not true
at all. Oh there's a four o'clock Laker game. I
(09:09):
better get into the beach. No, not true.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Pretty good crowd, right, Blackmore? Laker game on?
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Yeah, thanks a lot, Brian. Let me find something negative
to hurt Petros in the moment. There's that and then
that that lady won the three day Beach Live Fest,
which I can't even get for free anymore, even though
I work there. I think the tickets are non transferable,
so that's good.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
That is good.
Speaker 3 (09:32):
So she's gonna get to see train and maybe I'll
see her. Maybe I'll get to see her at Beach Life.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Oh, I can promise you you'll see her.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
And we could chop it up. But those two things
were very disappointing. Other than that, I thought it was
a great event. Other than well, though, there's a third
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. There's the bathtub, that thing that
drink those though it was funny in the moment, I
was happy in the haze of a drunken hour, but
(10:03):
heaven knows, I'm miserable now.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
It was a punch to the esophagus, as you know, Matt,
And don't you act like you didn't feel it. It was.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
It went down a lot easier than I had anticipated.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
It went down easier, but.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
I like, it was okay for about twenty minutes. Yeah,
it didn't. It didn't hit me right away. I was like, oh,
there wasn't that bad. I think between three of us
it was basically like taking a couple of shame maybe
a third of a third of a pine glass with ice,
you know, not that big of a deal.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Yeah, but it felt well.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
I got the I got the oh it's schnaps and
triple sec and pineapple juice and freaking seven cups of sugar. Yeah.
But whose idea was combined with well alcohol, Well, it
wasn't really anybody's ideas.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Your idea. You're the one that saw the damn thing.

his dog on Instagram Live? How come they didn't post
us drinking the ceramic tub with Alicia de Vaye, one
of the cutest young sportscasters in all of Los Angeles
in Wittier where the girls are prettier.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
How come do we know the answer to that case?
Do not know.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Where social mediacorded it?
Speaker 2 (12:18):
Yeah, I'm not sure.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I've been waiting for it all day. Is he helping
his son sign up for AARP?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
I think he's waiting for college acceptance letters to come
back to seriously, Well, how come they didn't post that?
Speaker 3 (12:30):
That's like the greatest video ever. That would be viral
views right now. You're right, I've been waiting for a
day and night pressure on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Let me just say this is I search for AM
five seventy LA sports right now, So help me. God,
if there is a repost of Rodney making his way
around Japan instead of us.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Drinking out of our drinking out of a bench pressing
hundreds of us, yeah, bench pressing hundreds of listeners fighting
hard for our for our dollar, We're going to have
a real problem as opposed to what we are going
through now.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
It's just Dodger stuff. Guardians, Dodgers tune in today, Kershaw
tune in Tokyo. Ronnie posted a nice picture from a
Tokyo sight seeing with his family. Looks fun, wonderful. Congratulations
to the Pete family. They've earned that.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
Tell us what we've earned.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
It's been a busy month, man, it's been a real
busy month.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Tell him to post it. Cake.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Meanwhile, I'm freaking hopping on a six thirty am flight
so I can get to Indianapolis in time through Denver
to hop on until freaking ten pm Local Indianapolis time,
because I'm committed to the show and I want to
talk about our show yesterday and drinking the blue Kirasaw
with the triple sec with the gin, with the vodka,
(13:53):
with the peach snaps. Not all heroes a drink with
peach snaps yesterday.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
Not all heroes were capes. Matt.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
No, what you've done flying the YA group, What you've
done is remarkable, isn't it though?
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Hey, better enjoy with the bags fly free now, buddy,
well charge your bags?
Speaker 2 (14:12):
See that coming in me? You know what, Kates, some
of us who fly regularly.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Oh no, don't do it, don't do it.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
No, yes, I might. I have earned the status in
which a bag will fly free.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Come look, yes that is.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
That is how high falutin I am. Do you.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
Think you're better than me? Because you ain't? Because you ain't.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
My bag will still fly free.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Just constantly clowning, Kates, why'd you even mention it? You
knew he had a way around that, you knew he did.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
But Kate, I do uh sympathize with your sentiment. I
don't like what Southwest is becoming. I like the free
for all. I like putting my foot up on the
seat in front of me in order to cast and
imposing persona for those that want to walk in my row.
I enjoyed that on the boarding process, and they're gonna
(15:07):
take that away from me with assigned seats.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Why do you want to change your back? Right, We'll
be right back with the top story of the day
on a seventy LA Sports, your home of Dodger Baseball
post the picture, Matt, Matt, we got an update.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
We got an update man on.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
The situation, and why are awesome video of us drinking
the uh the what was it called?
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Lucky Ducky the lucky ducky.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
Uh. Dave Weeese instructed social media Matt not to post it.
Why because the station logo was in there, so and
we're drinking.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
So I don't know, we're not we're not running the board.
We can drink.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
I don't know. He didn't. He had a problem with it.
So I texted social media Matt and I said, hey, man,
why isn't this up? And he said because of weeks
and he cropped out the thing right right, and I said,
well put it up. He said no, So, uh, I'm
(16:33):
going to invite you and him and I'll post it
at Petrus and Money on Instagram.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
But problem, I.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Don't know Matt. I don't know, Matt, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Uh, I mean, how many times have we posted us
drinking at Brewery x US, drinking modelos US, drinking michiladas
at Dodger Stadium with Big Brad Nelson, Like I it's
a drunk show.
Speaker 3 (16:59):
I don't know. I'm not a drug. I hope you
don't think I'm raised. I just I you said's a drug.
I'm just I'm I'm I'm wondering. Yeah, it's that sounds
kind of new, you know what I'm saying. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I don't know what he's Yeah, that's especially since he
already cropped out the stupid ass light that's underneath us.
So I wrote, here we go the lucky ducky in
Ciritos and uh, maybe I'll put an explanation point and
then I am to tag BJ's restaurant in brew house
in there.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Well, I don't know what we get in trouble, right right.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
I don't think so like, hey, come at me, bro.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Okay, BJ's restaurant, Okay, I did it, Yeah, all right, okay,
hold on, let me send the freaking thing and then
I'll do it.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Kate, I got a bad feeling about this, so should
I not do it? Is that what you d Let's
do it, dude, Let's do it. Hey, the show before
us is in freaking Japan for two weeks.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
We're working well from out with the people actually friends here,
and Isabelle wants you to know that that Rodney Pete
is there because he's got a son to spend time
with there. It takes up their time, man, and if
you have a son to spend time with, it's going
to take up your time.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay, sorry, that's a real thing. Oh what the you
get that from Clyle too?
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Yeah, she sent. Isabelle sent me that. Would you like
me to read you the text? None brought to you
by your so called Toyota dealers. We make it easy.
Let me read that for you right now, Matt. It says,
p can you please tell money that Rodney's son lives
in Japan and that's why he's already there.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Okay, that's fine.
Speaker 3 (18:41):
Yeah wear that, Matt.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Maybe go for the week that you're off the air
because they're running the spring training games every day and you
don't have a show once over the course of a
full week. Maybe oh that week. No, I don't want
to do that. Got to go to the week. We
do have shows that wagg take the shows off so
I get paid. Yeah, still getting for the shows you're
not doing because springtru I'm sorry. Sorry of it all right?
(19:05):
Some our football free agency. I spent the majority of
I got an early flat out of Long Beach through Denver,
prepped the show on my two hour layoff because it's
a drunk show in a bar in Denver, the Wilderness,
you know that place in the Denver Airport. It's like
this state.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
I love it, Matt. It's like going to the Banana
Republic in the eighties. You know, you're.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Exactly right. I was in the Wilderness bar prep in
the show, and then my flight from Denver to Indianapolis.
Nice nice breakup, by the way, about an hour fifty
Long Beach, Denver, about an hour forty Denver to Indianapolis,
and two hours in the Denver airport. Not a bad
way to spend six hours. When he got a prep
a three to four hour radio shown today, Matt and said,
(19:54):
there we go to see because we're willing to do
this sliver. We're not going to tell Ronnie to build
a break, so we can just sit there and you
got to listen to eight minutes of commercials. That's not
how we operate here. We were supposed to do three
minutes of content and instead we did nine. That's the
way the Petro some money show works. Cheat darn it.
But the majority of my flight from Denver to Indianapolis
was spent doing two things. One watching Soakamoto Days on Netflix,
(20:20):
which I found to be incredibly entertaining, and answering, and
I guess for the most part, talking people off the
ledge on Twitter that are absolutely freaking out over free agency. Right.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Oh, you had a free agency Twitter session with your
Bolt fam Yeah, hashtag Bob Hack hashtag Bolt family. So
you're like one of those guys that's like, hey, got
a few hours of a flight, I'll answer all of
your questions right now. Wow.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
And I did not do that. I simply lobbed out
a tweet that said day two wish list Slater deal
gets done.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
Oh yes I heard about this. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Number one and then number two was the arrow up.
Number three was the arrow up. Number four was the
arrow up, and then number five potential value signing free
agents because it appears that's how this front office is
going to operate. And I put a handful of offensive
linemen and wide receivers and edge players and defensive tackles
(21:14):
and tight ends and all that sort of stuff, and
the overwhelming response I got was that this front office
does not know what they're doing. Jim Harbaugh is an
incredible disappointment. Justin Herbert's career is being ruined. Why can't
this team operate like the Vikings and the Steelers and
(21:36):
fill in team that has spent money on the first
thirty six hours of the legal tampering period of free
agency and in a very calm, collected way, I felt
this though I would respond to a handful of them,
and that was a bad idea.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Don't were you defending your bosses, Matt? Were you?
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I wasn't defending them. I was just paint the picture
of why instead of being called and that's fine, you
want to call me a charger shill or an apologist
or a boot liquor. I can see why they would
say that, But I.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Why why would why would they say that?
Speaker 2 (22:12):
But I said, uh, yeah, I pull a check with
a bolt logo on it.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Sure, I mean pulled my day when Daniel got up.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
That's right, you have you have you have had a
check cut to you with a bolt in desaber left.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Course, just stop me from telling the truth about the
charges when I ride my free agency store.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Uh but I pointed out, this is how the Baltimore
Ravens operate. This is how this is Joe Ortiz twenty
six years under Ozzie Newsome. Rarely have they ever signed
a big ticket free agent. They are all about comp picks,
letting their guys go and trying to get as many third, fourth, fifth, sixth,
and seventh round comp picks maxed at four as you can,
(22:52):
and drafting, developing and keeping the players.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
What's a call, Matt for our idiot listeners that are
so stupid.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
A compensate to freas is a player that you have
drafted whose rookie contract has expired and they are signed
by another team. Not someone that has been cut by
the team or released by the team with time left
on their deal, but their contract has run its course
and has come to closure and they signed with another team.
(23:22):
If you lose enough of those players based on how
much money they signed for with the other team, the
NFL will award you anywhere from a third to a
seventh round pick. So today the twenty twenty five draft
picks were awarded, and instead of having seven picks, the
Chargers now have ten picks because of the compensatory formula.
Mike william you know, just add that kind of stuff and no,
(23:43):
if you cut guys, it doesn't count. So Mike Williams
wouldn't have counted in that compensatory formula. I can't remember
who did, but Mike Davis counted in there. But that's
the idea is you want to acquire more draft picks
because they consider those to be more valuable.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
They have faith in their ability to draft. They want
to develop their own players at the pro level and
not deal with somebody else's product that they're not super
familiar with, unless it's somebody they are familiar with.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
Exactly, like, they really gotta they really want to get.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Well, I'm gonna get on Twitter and just start fighting
it out, man. I understand them.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
So I pointed out, hey, let's look at last year.
You know, we were having this exact same conversation about
the Rams that the Rams were probably gonna totally tear
it down. And rebuild, that they were trading Jalen Ramsey,
that Aaron Donald is retiring, that they gave fifty four
million bucks to a guard and that was the only
(24:36):
big move they made. What the hell are they doing?
And then they have a rough start, and then all
of their draft picks start to come around, and they
make a run at the NFC Championship that comes up
just short against the eventual Super Bowl champions and it
looks nothing like people thought it was going to look like.
At this particular moment a year ago, the Buffalo Bills
(24:58):
remember to both their safeties, they traded Stefan Diggs. They
had to take dead cap hits, and it was supposed
to be a reset year, and all the people in
Buffalo and Western New York were losing their mind because
how can you dare waste a single year of Josh
Allen's prime. There's no resets allowed, there's no figuring it
out with drat And then they make the AFC Championship.
(25:23):
That's the way this works, you know, rarely. Now, it
does happen at times that you can sign a big
ticket free agent or two and it boosts you to
unforeseen levels. I remember that Blake Bortles Jaguars team that
made that big run to the AFC Championship. A lot
of that was built on him being on a rookie
contract and then spending a bunch of money in free agency,
(25:43):
and it all lined up for him that particular year.
So it can work. But to put in perspective kind
of what free agency is like, the Giants just gave
Darius Slayton, a guy that's never had a thousand yard
receiving season. I think last year he had about five
hundred yards and three or four touchdowns, basically the exact
(26:04):
same contract the Eagles gave Saquon Barkley last year.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
Oh God, make it stop.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
I can't say more of.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
This free agency tup.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
So last year Giants, Eh, I don't know about this
Saquon contract, I mean, seems a little rich for us.
They just gave that exact same contract to a number
two at best, probably a number three receiver, and that's
I think that encapsulates free agency. Offensive linemen have been
(26:37):
overpaid over this first thirty six hours. Dan Moore is
the one that everybody's pointing to, signed as the new
left tackle, leaving Pittsburgh for Tennessee. To a ninety million
dollar deal the first two years fifty million guaranteed, and
he had one of the worst pressure rates of any
left tackle in football and allowed twelve sacks last year.
No product of that, of course, can be the quarterback
(26:58):
hold not of the ball too much, but still you
get the point. People are going to pay a premium
for premium positions. The Bolts yesterday as we were signing off,
went bargain shop and Najie Harris has a floor a
five and a half million, with incentives to get that
thing to nine and a half million. They signed a
corner that was kind of cheap that apparently they liked
(27:19):
when he was in the draft. Jim Harbaugh tried to
recruit him to Michigan ge Ortiz and the Ravens liked
him in the draft before he was selected at the
top of the second round by Carolina. And those are
the signings thus far. I would assume in the next
twenty four hours we'll get a Rashawn Slater signing done.
If we don't, I would be somewhat alarmed, but I
would guess that that's probably being put together right now,
(27:40):
And then I would suspect you're going to start to
see some value signings the Evan Ingram's, Amari Cooper's, Kevin
Zeidler offensive lineman, those sort of things, because they don't
want to play the comp pick game. They want to
sign guys that will allow them to preserve these draft
picks and build around what the one thing that you
have to have in order to compete in the NFL.
(28:03):
And you have it with the Rams head coach, quarterback,
Sean McVay, Matthew Stafford, You have it with the Chargers,
Jim Harbaugh, Justin Herbert. It's why the Bills fans that
were freaking out shouldn't have freaked out because you still
had Sean McDermott and Josh Allen. And the same thing
with the Rams last year. You had a healthy Matthew
Stafford and Sean McVay. As long as you have those
(28:24):
two things, there's no reason to freak out over not
getting left guard Will Fries who missed three quarters of
the season in Indianapolis last year, or Jonathan Allen who
was cut by the Commanders on the interior defensive line
and is thirty one years old. Like it just it
happens every year, and every year people lose their minds.
(28:47):
You see, to us forty eight hours.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
You seem to be somebody who is invested in the
or at least feeling like the Chargers way is the
right way.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Matt I don't know if it's the right way. I
just think it's their way, you know, like it's the
Baltimore way. So I could kind of see this thing
come and now look, I think they were in on
DeVante Adams. I feel pretty good about saying that that
they were interested in that deal. And I think he
just wanted to go to the Rams that he didn't
want to play, that he would have rather played with
Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay than with Jim Harbaugh and
(29:17):
Justin Herbert. And I think they were in on DK
Metcalf and wanted to make that trade. And the Steelers
draft pick was four or five slots higher than the
Chargers and they didn't want to offer anything more than
the two, and Seattle just took the higher pick like
they should have. And so I think they were in
on those things. It just didn't work out. And now
(29:39):
I think it's it's time to bargain shop because they're
just not crazy about anything else. That's out there, especially
considering the prices. You know, they might like the food,
but they don't like the prices. Correct, It's kind of
where they're at right now. So, oh God, make it stop.
Speaker 3 (29:57):
I can't hit more of this free agency.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
There's no right way. The Baltimore Ravens just signed DeAndre
Hopkins for six million bucks. Like that's that's Baltimore. That's
basically what you're gonna start seeing, I would assume from
the Chargers, would be my guest that sort of thing.
Is there is there an Amari Cooper out there for
six million bucks? Is Evan Ingram available for seven eight
(30:22):
million dollars to be your pass catching tight end? And
Will Disley can go back to blocking instead of being
a sixty target guy again in twenty twenty five. That's
the stuff that I would suspect we're going to start
to see here in the next few days.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
All right, Well, David Vassy will join us next on
his last interview before being on the Land of the
Rising Sun with the Dodgers. David Vassy, then Dave Roberts,
then a Batchelor Report, and then brought Insider. We've already
written your whole evening for you. Stay tuned on AM
(30:55):
II seventy LA Sports. You're home of the Dodgers and
Chargers Free agency talk.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
That's your somebody. AM five seventy LA Sports live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio app going until seven pm and then
Brewing Insider will be along. UCLA earns a double bye
in the Big Ten Tournament is the four seed, so
they will not play until the third day of Big
Ten Basketball action here in Indianapolis. That means a Friday,
eleven thirty A approximately eleven thirty a m tip win
(31:28):
one game, they're on the semis. Win that game, and
they'll be playing in that final on Sunday. You'll hear
it all right here on your Home with the Bruins
a M five to seventy LA Sports.
Speaker 3 (31:38):
David Vase, last time from camel Back Raunch Live from
Spring Training, the home of the Dodgers. Day with an
inside look at the Dodgers. This is the Vass Report
with David Vasse. David Vasse our number one guy embedded
with the Dodgers on m FI seventy LA Sports. Follow
(31:58):
him on Instagram and Twitter at the Real Underscore dv
He will have all the latest information on this historical
trip to Japan that the Dodgers are taking and Dave
is taking with him. Second time he's been in East
Asia in two years. Dave went to Korea last year.
They'll leave tomorrow. Last game was today a day from
Spectrum Sportsnet and of course MLB Network with us now
(32:23):
on your Southern California Toyota Dealer Celebrity Online. Hello Dave,
how are you.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
Doing great? And it feels like everybody's very excited that
today was the last day here in Arizona and you
could feel the anticipation. It's tangible at camel Back Branch.
How excited everybody is to get on the plane tomorrow
morning and get this thing started and experience the Otani
Extravaganza in Tokyo.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
Is it straight to la and then Japan? Or do
you guys go from the cactus to the cherry blossom?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
Oh no, we go straight from the cactus to the
cherry blossoms.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
That goes so that? How about that?
Speaker 4 (33:04):
Yeah, you're going from the desert to Tokyo.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
So how much luggage are you allowed to take? Dave?
Is there a limit on what you can bring?
Speaker 4 (33:14):
There is no limit on what I can bring, but
I'm always very responsible with just one luggage and a
couple of carry ons because you know, guys have to
load it unloaded onto the plane. The clubies, the clubhouse
attendants have to do that, so you don't want to
overload it. And my understanding just to try to avoid
any public mob scene when the Dodgers land in Tokyo,
(33:39):
you have to grab your luggage from customs and roll
it through a secret part of this airport that we're
landing in because of you know, when we when the
Dodgers landed in Soul, Korea last year, fans lined up
that terminal from the point where the Dodgers got off
the plane until they loaded up on the bus. So
(34:01):
they obviously if they that were to happen in Tokyo,
complete bedlum would break out with Otani Yamamoto on Sazaki
just to name a few.
Speaker 3 (34:11):
KT have that. David Vasse joining us right now, so
Dave explain these exhibition games that are in Japan that
we won't be hearing on the radio, and well, where
where is that? Like a tree falling on the forest,
what's going on out there?
Speaker 4 (34:27):
Well you'll be able to watch them both on Sports
net LA. Joe Davis and Eric Caros on the call
for Sports Net La oral Herscheizer had hip surgery and
it's not going to make the trip, so caos pinchings
for the Bulldog in Japan, so you'll be able to
watch those. And I guess the one that's the most
(34:47):
intriguing is the one against the Japanese Giants. I mean,
that's a historic team out there, so that should be
really fun when the Dodgers play that team in Japan,
and you know it's it's an I'm not going to
put an over emphasis on it, but it'll be cool
to see O Tani hopefully get a couple of at
(35:08):
bats against those teams in the Tokyo Dome. So that's
what you can expect. And you're going to see Blake
Snell pitch in one of those games, the game on Sunday.
He's going to start that game, just a final tune
up before he is expected to make the start at
Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
Well, speaking of tune ups, Dave, how about what Sasaki
put out there today against the Guardians and if that
tells us anything that we should be looking toward either
in Japan or at the start of the season on
the twenty seventh when the Tigers come it down, he.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
Had Dave Roberts made it official. Sazaki is going to
start game two in Tokyo. And you know, I talked
to Sazaki after the game today and he made it
kind of it made it seem like, you know, I
hate to bring up the Allen iverson practice line, but
it didn't seem like he was up for those live
BP He's on the backfield, and he said, facing these
(36:03):
hitters in live games is really up the adrenaline and
also helped him see how his pitches play against opposing
hitters and their swings. And talking to a few of
the guys like Gavin Stone and Bobby Miller because they
had a front row seat to Sazaki, they just said
that the way he shapes his split fingered fastballs, it's
(36:23):
basically two pitches in one, because he has the one
that we all know, the classic hard split fingered fastball
that darts down. But then there's that other one that
he was showing today that was eighty six miles an hour,
and they both told me it wasn't a slider, it
was another version shaped split fingered fastball. But they did
(36:44):
say everything that we've talked about he does need to
show he does need to have a fastball command to
be able to have those pitches play, and they both
believe that he kind of needs that slider as well,
like everybody believes he needs a third pitch, and the
slider's going to be that pitch for him.
Speaker 3 (37:02):
Dave roster moves being made. I know they'll be made
again after Tokyo, But any big surprise is there?
Speaker 4 (37:11):
Well, I guess the biggest news, Petros is that Dave
Roberts made it official that Hayesan Kim is going to
begin the season at Oklahoma City in TRIPAA. He's not
making the trip to Japan. He's staying back. He has
a brand new swing, he's still getting adjusted to seeing
major league pitching. So it's the right call to give
(37:32):
him a chance to be able to settle in and
just hone in on this new swing without having the
pressure of trying to do it on the big stage
and planing sporadically. So that was the biggest roster move
that Saved announced after the game today.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
And then Dave you mentioned how excited Kershaw was about
going to Japan. How that compares to how the guys
felt about going to South Korea last year. Is there
anybody on the opposite side of that spectrum? Anybody all
like butter If you guys are all packing up and
getting ready to take off, that's like they're just standing
there with like a little bit of a tear in there.
I like, Oh, good to go.
Speaker 4 (38:08):
No, absolutely not. Everybody is thoroughly overjoyed to be able
to not only experience one of the greatest countries in
the world. But as Kershaw told us last night on
Dodger Talk, I mean, it's not lost on him and
it shouldn't be on others. How historic this trip is
to not only go there as a Dodger, but to
(38:29):
go there as a Dodger with Shohey Otani. That's what
even Otani's teammates are certainly excited about to be there
with him and experience being there with him.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
On his last night of the United States for about
a week. David Vasey, what will he do? Hump a cactus?
No doubt, Dave, have a great night, and we'll talk
to you when you're in Japan. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
I look forward to it.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
Thanks have a safe trip, David, enjoy it.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Thank you. Hodigato it's good practice there.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
We'll be right back sayonara until the next hour, which
is already this hour. Word number song will get out
quick because Dave Roberts is going to join us
