Speaker 3 (03:02):
The hardest working man in radio at Tim Kates on Twitter.
It is on the Southern California Toyota Dieters celebrity guest microphone,
not really a guest on his show. It is Tim Kates. Hello, Tim, heype.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
We are on trade watch right now, trade watch, trade watch,
trade watch all day long. As we are now minus
fifty seven minutes away from the Major League Baseball trade deadline.
And I know that's why you want to meet today.
In that's absence. You said, who is the biggest seam
head that I know that can sit here and talk
(03:39):
about all this trade talk and rumors and stuff that's
happening across baseball, And I am your guy.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
P Yes, and I appreciate that. We will talk to Dave,
who got a little bit upset with Fred after that question.
We will talk to Dave at what three point thirty?
So the deadline is when clock Pacific? Okay, and then
Dave will join us at.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Three point thirty and.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
By then all the dust will have settled. Now, when
it comes to the very end of this, are we
relatively certain or relatively confident that the Dodgers are done
or are there still trades left? There's still a lot
of meat on the bone.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
As they say, there is still a lot of meat
on the bone, and players that are available. A lot
of players have come off the board that we're available
in trade talks. Pee, the Dodgers have made one trade
of note, they made a lesser deal this morning to
add another arm. But brock Stewart, former Dodger, now coming
back to the Dodgers as a reliever from the Minnesota Twins.
(04:49):
He comes in a trade straight up, unfortunately, Petros for
one of your favorites and your dad's favorites, James out.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Yeah, is gone. We'll have more on that as the
show continues. More on the James Autman tragedy, the fact
that he couldn't get a hit for the last I
don't know, eight months or something as a Dodger, collectively
(05:23):
playing up not exactly heartening. A lot of texts when
the Outman news, they just traded him straight up for
one guy, like in Dumb and Dumber when they traded
that little motorbike for the shag and wagon.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
That's it. You give me your guy, We'll give you
our guy, rock Stewart for James Allman, straight up.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
And brock Stewart is a reliever who can strike out
right handed guys.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah. Brock Stewart is a former Dodger minor league star.
Came up with the Dodgers many years ago, was a
starting pitcher for them, sort of fizzled out of baseball.
Petros was playing independent ball had Tommy John surgery resurrected
his career. It's been really good as a reliever the
last two seasons, and here in twenty twenty five has
really become an elite reliever against right handed batters, so
(06:09):
much so that a lot of teams were trying to
get him at the deadline and the Dodgers were the
winners and the Brock Stewart sweepstakes. How about that.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
So you're telling me that the Dodgers did not value
James Autman's pinch running and outfield prowess.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Well, wait a second. The almost catch that he had
last night in center field was pretty impressive. The almost
catch that he went up and almost robbed Spencer Steer
of a three run home run was pretty impressive.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
So that's all we got, and it's not considered to
be a major.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Trade, no, but it helps out this Dodgers team. If
they needed something, it was a right handed reliever that
could get right handed hitters out. I mean, in fact,
Andrew Friedman told you guys this on the field that
Dodgers Stadium a few months ago. David Vasse refers to
it a lot when talking about what the Dodgers may
do at the trade deadline. That Andrew i Eman told
(07:00):
you guys, a high leverage reliever that could get right
handed hitters out, and that's exactly what they did brock
Stewart in thirty six games this year. That's funny because
I totally wasn't paying attention when he said that. I
had no idea he said that to him. I'm glad
David was paying attention because he's referred to it a lot.
But brock Stewart this year, thirty six games, has dominated
right handed beaming.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
You do really impactful interviews for this show.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Yeah, that make news. Yet you don't know about him. Well,
I'm here for that, right.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I just watched Scooby Doo or something while people are talking.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Well, brock Stewart has held right handed batters to a
one zero five batting average a three twenty seven ops,
both numbers which are really good for the pitcher and
really bad for the hitters, and has twenty nine strikeouts
in those thirty six games. That's very impressive. Now against
left handed batters, they're hitting over three thirty with an
OPS near a thousand. But against right handed hitters, brock
(07:53):
Stewart has been really good this year.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
So Andrew Friedman didn't say anything to us about left
handed hitters. That must not be a problem exactly, all right.
So if the Dodgers were to stand pat and not
do anything as we approach, you know, we're like fifty
two minutes away from the end of the trade deadline,
So if they were to stand pat, it would be
(08:16):
considered a pretty lackadaisical effort by some others would say
they have guys coming back from injury, which is what
we hear every year. You know, the trade deadline is
the il The guys are coming up, they're coming back. Yeah,
we've done that four or five years since I can
remember doing this kind of stuff. What would the Dodgers do?
(08:39):
Who would the Dodgers get in these waning moments that
would be considered a big trade or a bigger move,
or something that would excite the fan base, like the
Padres or the Seattle fan base is excited right now.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Well, let's just say the Padres have gone all in
this year. Aj Preller, their general manager at the deadline,
has added Mason Miller Reiver. He's added Sears, a left
handed arm in the back end of the rotation, and
they've added two more bats than they've picked up from
the Baltimore Orioles in first base from Ryan O'Hearn and
Ramon Loreano, the outfielder who are both slug hitters for
the San Diego Padres. The Dodgers need a guy like
(09:15):
Steve Kwan Stephen Kwan, who went to Oregon State and
Northern California. Guy under the age of thirty, still can
play outfield, could hit for average, could hit for power.
That's the kind of guy the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Will want up.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
But uh oh uh oh, Petros, we have a we
have we have some news here, a lot, we have
some we have some news here involving Let's see here
if we can get this thing to work as it
is not.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
It better be working. It's the freaking trade deadline. What
are we doing? I'm depending on you.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Well, the Padres have made moves. The Arizona Diamondbacks have
given up on this season. Meanwhile, the Dodgers, with the
move for Brock Stewart, helped out their bullpen. The Dodgers
have just added an outfield bat. As we speak, Patros.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Playing the timpany do something, make it big? Come on.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
The Dodgers have added an outfield bat and a bat
that they desperately needed in the outfield. It is Alex
Call from the Washington Nationals.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
All right, uh, forgive me all, forgive me for not
knowing much. But you know you're just talking about the
guy from Oregon State getting everybody all lathered up, the
Cleveland Guardian guy. What is the comparison between that guy
and this guy? Well, Alex Call.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Alex Call is an outfielder from the Washington Nationals hitting
two seventy four with three home runs twenty six rbi.
He is a right handed hitting outfielder that is probably
going to be more of a role player for this
Dodgers team than an actual everyday starter in the outfield
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
So he replaces like what ja outman was doing.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Yeah, he's not a big guy, five to eleven, can
play defense, but just doesn't do a lot for you
of offensively. He's around a little bit, just not going
to hit for power. Petros has never hit more than
ten home runs in a season and never hit more
than fifteen doubles in a season. He's just a guy.
He's a jag. He's a jag. That's what they got.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Does this indicate So it's not like when they went
out and got Tommy Tanks last year or something like that.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Oh, this is not a move like Tommy Edmon at
the trade deadline. Far from it.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
So what does this mean when it comes to the
guy that you were just talking about, the ambassador of Kwan,
Stephen Kwan.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
They hit, they could still be in on Kwan because
I don't imagine they gave up a lot to get
Alex Call. I don't see exactly what the details are here,
but Alex Call is not a guy who I had
on my bingo board for the Dodgers going out and
trying to bolster their outfield the Nationals. Here we go,
Nationals will received two pitching prospects from the Dodgers for
(12:01):
outfielder Alex Call.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Who are those?
Speaker 4 (12:04):
It's not my guy, Frasso. I hope it's not Frasso.
I'm just not overwhelmed by Alex Call. I'm not overwhelmed
where I'm saying, yes, that's it. Way to match the
Padres move that they made with O'Hearn and Ramon Loreano
and Mason Miller. Not that you have to go toe
to toe and match it trade by trade at the deadline,
but certainly the Padres are stealing the headlines today. Petros,
(12:29):
the Mets, the Yankees, the Phillies, those four teams at
this deadline have stolen the headlines as far as gotten
their team's better, and the Dodgers have just kind of
added pieces.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Well, we discussed it over the last few months, and
something I do remember is the fact that the Dodgers
did all this stuff during the off season, and we
had so many offseason little celebrations. It's right for every
signing that they had, so they wouldn't have to overpay
(13:01):
like the Yankees or the Padres or the Mets at
the trade deadline. But the year has been such that
perhaps they should overpay at the trade deadline because they
have a lot of injuries and some needs. But it
looks like the former attitude is more prevalent than the latter.
They felt like they did their work in the offseason
(13:24):
and people are gonna get healthy.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Is that the case when the price is a little
cheaper as far as giving up prospects at the trade deadline,
you addressed your needs in the offseason. If you were
Andrew Freeman and Brandon Gomes, Tanner, Scott Kirby, Yates, Michael
confordo to high leverage, proving bullpen relievers, closers. If you
want them to left handed and right handed, you check
(13:47):
two boxes there, and you sign a left handed, hitting,
power hitting outfielder to play left field. You checked all
the boxes and you filled all your needs in the
off season. If you were the Dodgers, moves were made
in December. In January, so today you didn't have to
do what aj prel did and trade your top overall
prospect and three other top twenty prospects to get a
(14:11):
reliever in Mason Miller. This is what you didn't want
to get to today. But with that being said, Petros,
things haven't lived up to the hype, so the Dodgers
did need to add. I felt like they've needed to
add to this current roster to make it better. I
think Brox Stewart makes them better. I just don't know
much about Alex call and I don't know where this
makes this team better. On a twenty six man rosters.
(14:33):
Alex call gonna make this team better on a day
to day basis, whether it's a starter or off the bench.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
I just don't think so. Well, we're not to the
end yet, so let's forty five minutes to go. Yeah,
let's set our stage. We have multiple alarms to let
us know. Yeah, there's the that's the school fire alarm. Okay,
oh that one. That one drives me crazy. That's a
terrible one. That is the in nineteen eighties digital alarm clock,
(15:01):
ge alarm clock. Yeah. Yeah, that that thing is just
that is an evil apparatus. That's terrible. That's one of
my favorites. That is from Doss Boot. So that is
a Nazi submarine. And you know, well, Doss Boot is
(15:22):
actually an interesting movie. It's not only that, but one
of the most celebrated movies of the twentieth century. But
Doss Boot actually has you very sympathetic to not the
Nazi cause, but the cause of the Nazis in that
particular submarine. Yeah, and then that that is the viper
(15:46):
car alarm. If you ever lived not like alone on
the top of a hill in the eighties and nineties,
it is very likely that a friend of yours may
be with a Ford Mustang or a souped up Mitsubishi,
or with Momo Wood or something had the viper the
(16:07):
viper Carl alarm usually came along with the Kenwood face
that comes off on the tape deck or the tape
deck that comes all the way out with the suitcase.
That that would be Yeah, the viper Carl alarm. So
is that all four four? So well let's go. Yeah,
(16:28):
that schools out, wake your podcasts up for the ninety
three shot MC eights and the mother up and Nazi
Sub and then the viper. All right, So I'm feeling
I'm feeling pretty good about our ability, But what is
(16:50):
the prospect that we're actually going to play that with?
Meaning Like when you said, hey, let's look at this
right now, be Sub's coming in. Yeah, And I thought
it was going to be a whole thing, and it
was a little bit like the tsunami. Watch not that
I'm grateful that the tsunami. Yeah, I'm grateful that the
tsunami didn't hit you know, uh kawaie like we thought
(17:11):
watching all the webcams.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Yeah, I got a lot of pushback yesterday. I got
a home and I got some text from people saying,
why were you guys poo pooing the tsunami? Watch what
if it was a big deal and people got killed,
wouldn't you feel bad about that?
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Well, we would feel bad about it, but we wouldn't
have come on. We would have said, God, it's terrible.
Like what there was a fire in Maui, right, you
say this is horrible? You know they obviously obviously the
civic leaders failed everybody. Again, yeah, we would do all that.
But because the tsunami did not arrive and no waves
of consequence in the timeframe of the tsunami hit the island,
(17:49):
we were able to have a laugh at the people
on Twitter who were like, this is real, This is real.
Look at the water receiving here, it comes, the water's
receiving here, it comes here, it comes there, it comes
to their God, then it didn't come. Yeah, so I
feel like, you know, in the next fifty two minutes,
I don't want to be like the Weather Channel because
I don't think anything's gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Just testing it out, Petros, just testing it out. By
the way, an update on Alex Call doing a little digging.
As you're talking, Alex Call is going to play all
three outfield spots for the Dodgers wondering who this guy is.
And he hits left handed pitchers specifically, that's where his
strength is, so he could platoon with a Michael Conforto. Confordo,
left handed bat faces right handed pitchers, and then when
(18:31):
the Dodgers are facing a left handed starting pitcher, this
is where Alex Call then gets to start in outfield
and faces the left hander where he's got it ops
over eight hundred. Now, I don't know if that's a
specific need that the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
So these are very nuanced, Oh yes, very specific trades
that they're making.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Very analytical moves. Petros analytical stuff here. Brox smarter than
us brock Stewart because he can strike out right handers,
copy of that, and Alex Call because he can hit
left handers. Copy that. Very specific things they can do.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
From what I understand, Tim, the situation regarding Conforto has
improved since the dead Fish handshake from David Vasse.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
His numbers have the case, Yeah, his numbers have gone up.
I think they actually started going up a little bit
before the handshake.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
But they have not a lost cause right now. Michael Conforto.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
As long as he keeps playing the way he has
been playing the last week a week and a half offensively,
then yes, getting on bass, taking walks, you know, being
a guy that can do kind of everything at the plate,
hit for power, hit for average, then yes, what he's
supposed to do and was supposed to do the first
three months of the season for the Dodgers. If you
could do that, then yes he'll stay.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
And is there anything else like some I mean, because
the call thing is way off the radar, right, And no,
I don't hear anybody mentioned brock Stewart in the last few.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Months that say, to his credit, not on he talked
to rock Stewart last week when the Twins were in town.
But Dave's been talking about brock Stewart and mentioning his
name with us on Dodgers on Deck when we've been
talking trade talks the last few weeks on the pregame show,
Dave has brought up brock Stewart's name, so.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
He was somebody they were talking about. But these aren't
considered to be things that people know. We're just like
waiting on a perch for oh no to pounds. These
are very, very nuanced, very very specific moves that the
Dodgers have made this trade deadline. But it's not over yet.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
We are loaded with alarms, just testing it out, petros,
just testing it out.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
We are on until four o'clock, then we will go
to Chargers versus the Detroit Lions. Before we go to break,
we should tell you that we do have a live
event coming up and it is a week from tomorrow,
right the third stop. So we're getting close. It's time
to really promote this thing. Are you? Did you do
(20:57):
that like Tony Bruno because you've got something up your sleeve.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
No, I'm excited about the tour stop next Friday.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Right because we're still walking out of the bathroom with
just our junk in our hand right.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Now, right, What is that supposed to do?
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Well, I'm just saying I asked for an acoustics surf
guitar guy, like one guitarist, like and and you know
we have one guy.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
We have a DJ playing surf music.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Okay, and you know, and then Matt's gonna get a
bunch of surfers on and be like, hey, I was
there when you were there with that skag and the
seventy fitter and that you know that left. I mean
it's going to be like that was right, So, I mean,
but is that enough? Like, Okay, whatever, I'll figure it out.
I'll buy a tank top the third stop of the
petrosson Monay summer tour. His next Friday, August eighth, three
(21:44):
to six from h Q Gastropub and Hunting to Beach.
All I'm saying is we had a full blown, like
giant Mariachi band just kicking ass at our last event. Yeah,
and I just feel like having a dude with like
Jimmy Hendrix playing the National anthem and woodstock like that
(22:07):
style of acoustic elect not acoustic but solo electric surf guitar. Okay,
solo electric surf guitar.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Okay. You know it's still time to work on that Petro.
So I'll get on.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
It, all right. I mean, it doesn't feel like you're
getting on it. It doesn't feel like anybody cares.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
As soon as the trade deadline passes in thirty eight minutes,
I'll get right on it, Okay.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Well. The HQ's Gastropub in Huntington is located on Pacific
Post Coast Highway between fifth and six.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Oh it's gonna be going off next Friday, and.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
We aren't just walking out of the bathroom with our
junk in our hand. We've got Dodger tickets, chargers preseason
tickets to not get away at the MGM resort in
Las Vegas of their choice. Yes, enjoy lively pool parties, poshcabanas,
cocktails and endless ways to earn with MGM Rewards. Visit
(23:06):
mgmrewards dot com for details. Thank you to our supporters
Toyota Sweet, James Bergener, Modelos, Surf Side Vodka and Barry
from Barry's Tickets.
Speaker 4 (23:21):
Just testing it out, just testing it out.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
There was one big Nazi on the boat in dos Boot,
like one true believer, and the rest of the guys
were pretty disillusioned with the cause, you know, but they
were soldiers or sailors understandably. Allah Trade deadline day, we'll
(23:47):
do the word number song of the day coming up
next unless there's a train, and we'll go all the
way until four o'clock. Thanks everybody, let's pet you some

What do you got on pregame David?
Speaker 3 (24:42):
There is no Dodger Talk, there is no pregame show,

Chargers versus Lions, Dodgers Matt Muney, Smith, Daniel Jeremiah, Shannon Farren,
Isaac Loewenkron the Hall of Fame game. Pregame at four,
(25:07):
kickoff at five from Candon, Ohio. I think this is
the first Hall of Fame game that the Chargers have
been in since Matt's been calling the games, So that's
pretty exciting. And we'll be right back at it again
with the Dodgers. The Dodgers with Brock Stewart and Alex
Call tomorrow, Dodgers on deck at three thirty, first pitch
(25:33):
at four thirty five, So that means Matt and I
will start at one a clock.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
You mean left handed pitching specialist Alex.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
Call, Yes, and waking against right handers brought it? Yeah. Wow.
Some people have said, and it's not texto so but
some people have said, Tim that you you are a
little too excited about call that you're selling you, you're
(26:07):
selling Call a little too hard.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Well, I don't know any other left handed hitting or
excuse me, right handed hitting threat off the bench that
hits at eight seventy ops against left handers other than
now it's call. So you find one, you come, tell
me who that person is?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
All right? Any any scuttle butt? Tim, I'm doing insurance

hornstraw passing your everything rolled into one buster only.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
On me?
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (26:46):
What do you got?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
The Cubs made a deal acquiring super utility man Willie
Castro from the Minnesota Twins, who have basically sold off
their entire roster outside of Byron Buxton.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
So the Twins have sold everybody and so of the
nap Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Right.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
The Rangers have acquired Merrill Kelly from the Arizona Diamondbacks,
who have become sellers this year at the deadline. They
gave up three prospects for that. And the Angels, who
have pushed their chips into the middle of the table
for some reason. They've added Oswald Parraza from the Yankees,
who is coming off an ankle injury. So there you go.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
So there there's a lot of stuff happening.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
There's a lot of movement, yes, and a lot of
the teams at the top of the divisions are making moves.
And that's fun to see, right, that's fun to see
moves being made by the Yankees and the teams like
the Cubs and the Mariners in the AL West, the
Rangers in the AL West, the Padres in the NL West.
The teams that have a shot at knocking off the
(27:45):
Dodgers have all made moves here at the deadline. Petros
to get better.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
All right, And should Dodger fans be unhappy? Should they
be upset by this?
Speaker 4 (27:55):
No, I don't have They will be Petros. Dodger fans
are gonna be upset because in a moment.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
There's no Dodger talk, there's no Dodger talk, they won't
have a there's no pregame show, they won't have a
forum to be upset. And then if they win tomorrow,
then have you know? I mean, people are so swept
up in the moment. I get it.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
It's the moment. I've received no less than like six
texts in the last hour saying what are the Dodgers doing?
Why aren't they making a big move like the Podres,
And I keep hitting the same response to everybody. They
made their moves in the off season. That's where the
moves were made. Tanner, Scott Kirby, Yates, Michael Conforto. I
don't expect them in the next twenty four minutes time
(28:38):
check before at three o'clock Pacific, to make a bolstering
move like the Padres have made multiple ones today to
get better. They'll They've made two trades to fill specific needs,
specific needs. They've done in these two trades. They're not
gonna make big earth shattering moves here in the next
twenty three and a half minutes.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
All right, five whatever. I know.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
It sucks because in the moment you're like, wells are
doing and we're not.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Alarm Yeah, I mean it's like Christmas.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Right, Yeah, it's like getting your Christmas gift I don't
know in July. Well, and then all our friends open
them up in Christmas. In December. You're like, dude, I
got mine months ago.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
The kids across the street, yeah, are opening presents and
we got nothing. We're coming out of the bathroom with
our junk in our hands. I'm like, yeah again with
that reference, it is that God better be there. I
don't want my brother coming out of that bathroom with
only his junk in his hand. All right, it is
time for the word of the day.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
With his words the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Today's word of the day is update on my brilliant,
militant reggae inspired ten under little league team from Palace Verdes.
Could I have somebody? Yeah, there we go. You know
that the team, my friend's team, Palace Verdi's little league
ten under team with the big Swede.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
They did lose. Oh they did. That's unfortunately, well they
ended up. You know, if they won, you don't think
you would have heard about it.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Well, I thought they were still going on petros.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
They ended up third in the state, but they were
eliminated and they are not headed to Williams Point. But
there have been lots of requests on the on the
bright side for the Black Power reggae that drove the
children to the run that they did go on, which
third in the state is very respectable run.
Speaker 4 (30:31):
That's a heck of a run.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
I mean, this is a big state.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Good for them.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
So congratulations to Ryan Wagoner, coach Tim Dietrich, the good
people at Claremont McKenna that let him hit there. But
I was made aware that the west Chester Delray Little
League girls softball did win the West Oh congratulations to
(30:56):
this west Chester Delray, which I guess is just an
amalgamation of the two communities because they're neighboring. They are
headed to the Little League World Series for softball. That's awesome,
which is in Greenville, North Carolina, same place as the
ECU Pirates East Carolina University with the giant skull and
(31:18):
pirate hat that goes from twenty yard line to twenty
yard line in that beautiful stadium, big party school ECU.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Is it really Yeah?
Speaker 3 (31:26):
So the softball Chicks girls flew out this week and
their Cougar Moms and their first game is on Monday,
So good luck to the girls of Marina Westchester del Rey.
They scored eleven runs in the last inning to beat
(31:50):
Tucson twelve to two. No way, which was tough for
the girls of the Dirty Tea, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
They're down two to one in the last inning in
one eleven. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
I mean they could have just scored three anyway. Great
for the great for the west Way to go west
Chester del Rey.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
Are you gonna keep following him through the weeks here
as a cat run?
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Yeah? I mean somebody made me aware of it, and
I knew I had to give a follow up. But
people are still asking for the Black Militant Reggae playlist.
One of my old teammates, Travis Watkins old Ti Liman, Yeah,
one of old Reggie Bush's old teammates from Helix High
and San Diego. He he asked for it, had a
(32:41):
few others.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Can you post that somehow on social media?
Speaker 3 (32:44):
Petrol, I don't know. I guess I could, but I'd
rather just, you know, exclusively give it over to Textoso types.
Speaker 4 (32:50):
What if you burned a bunch of CDs.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Have to like my dad. Yes, my dad's having a
rough day already with the Tarzan stuff. Have you checked
in on him? Dave sent us a blank attext. Oh nice,
Dave sent us a text. But Dave sent us a
mocking You know, Dave's an a hole? Really, you know?
Well to my dad about outman, Yeah, totally. Dave's just like, oh,
be good trained. My Dad's like thanks for the update.
(33:16):
So very terse words between the two men that we're
both very closely associated with. Uh So, anyway, good luck
to the Westchester del Rey women. And girls are the
girls of the of the Marina and the women that
are their mothers and their fathers.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
Here's our number. Number of the day.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Number of the day is one. Petro says in one
episode of the new podcast called Show Me Something with
Sophie Cunningham.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Is that an iHeart podcast?
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I think it's actually through calling Cowherd's the Volume, Oh
the Volume podcast company. She has got a new podcast
with her Shannon Sharp still work there? I don't think so.
Sophie Cunningham and her childhood friend in one of the
stars of Summerhouse, a TV show West Wilson have paired
(34:09):
together for a new podcast. They're both from Columbia, Missouri,
growing up knowing each other forever, and now they got
a podcast called Show Me Something. And in the first episode,
Sophie Cunningham, of course the enforcer that is on the
Indiana Fever, very attractive young lady has soared in popularity
this year because of what she's done alongside She just.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
Grabbed that one check by the back of the neck
yep at the Connecticut Sun girl who did the curly
mow eye scrape to Caitlin Clark, and then Sophie Cunningham
fouled her hard and then grabbed her by the back
of the neck and started manhandling her. And that that
(34:50):
was the moment. That was the moment that she became popular.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
She became a star right then and there. She's very attractive.
She likes to show herself off on social media and
she has doubled her followers on all of her social
media platforms. She's now become an endorser of different products.
And on her first episode of her new podcast, Show
Me Something, with her friend Wes Wilson made headlines already
(35:14):
today with these comments.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
And it literally like pisses me off, and people are like,
she's not the face of the league.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
About Kaylyn Clark, who would be?
Speaker 5 (35:21):
What Sabrina, No, No, there's really good, well known people
in our league. I'm not discrediting them, like we have
a lot of badasses in our league.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
Yeah, like hell yeah, of that. I'm all for that.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
But when people will try to argue that she's not
the face of our league or our league would be
where we're at without her, you're dumba yeah, you're literally dumb.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
Yes, yes, Sophie Cunningham finally recognizing that Caitlin Clark is
the face and the star of her league, the w NBA.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
It's very hard for them to say that it is right.
It's very difficult. There's a lot of truth to face
for some people, and that is that is one of them.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
How big is Sophie Cunningham got in the last two
and a half months, Our friend, Lakers owner Genie Buss,
who's also co owner of Wow Women of Wrestling, went
to social media over the weekend, was I.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Thought she was the owner of Glow the Gorgeous Ladies
of Wrestling.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
I think it's Wow now maybe correction and retraction that's
all right, that's all.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Right, corrections and retraction.
Speaker 4 (36:31):
It was brought up on another platform that hey, the
WOW should go get Sophie Cunningham and be a woman's wrestler,
and Genie saw that comment and put it up on
X and said, quote, We'd love to have Sophie Cunningham
join us at Women of Wrestling. She is talented, dedicated,
and a fierce competitor. Now, Sophie was asked about this
(36:54):
and said right now, she is not interested in doing it,
but said with the smile, well, we'll see.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Well, I mean, she doesn't have to go on tour
with him, like Dbias was described the other day.
Speaker 4 (37:07):
Maybe just an appearance like coming out of the back, do.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
A matinee and Shreveport and then we would drive to
Biloxi and then we would do a bunch of ludes
and my god, but I I you know, from everybody
from Donald Trump to h Dennis Rodman to Carl Malone
to yeah, like a lot of people have had dalliances
(37:33):
in the world of professional wrestling and performed with those athletes.
So I'm sure we'll see her in some capacity.
Speaker 4 (37:40):
I think she can make a lot of money with
the WWE. No offense to wow the women of wrestling,
but she could probably make a want to take paycheck
going to the w WE.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
You want to take everything from Genie. She's already lost
her basketball team, all right, Ronnie's there, runnish.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
The song of the day.
Speaker 6 (38:02):
The Beach Boys present today's song of the day, called
the Trader. Because the MLB deadline is upon us, and
there have been a lot of moves being made for
the playoff push and the Petros and Money show us
all over it on a crunchy grooven Thursday. And there's
also a flex alert going on because of NFL foosball. Yes,
(38:23):
NFL foosball is back with the Chargers and Lions featured
in the NFL Hall of Fame game in Canton, where
coverage begins with Isaac Glohenkron and a KFI simulcast at
four o'clock.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
Hang you, Ronie, and we shall return.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
I mean, nothing happening, just testing it out, Patrick, See.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
Like the Tsudami guy.
Speaker 4 (38:45):
Now we got fourteen minutes until the trade deadline.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
Stay with us. We'll be right back on this trade
deadline Thursday. Much ado about nothing when it comes to
the Yo Yo Yo Yo yo, yo, yoyo yo.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
Of a second, we're good.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
Teams.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
Hello, PMS listener.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
Did you know Am five seventy LA Sports has a
wide range of LA sports podcasts.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
There's Rogan and.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
Ronney, that one is my favorite, Dodger Talk with David Vasse,
the Dodger Podcast of record.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
Clipper Talk without a Musk, follow us all, and many more.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
Just go to AM five to seventy LA Sports on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Hey, everybody, what's cracking? Welcome back, Petro, send money on
this trade deadline Thursday. We're on early, We're off early.
We started too, We're done at four. No baseball talk
into the evening Chargers versus Lions Hall of Fame game preseason.
Speaker 4 (39:57):
All right, yes, we've got some movement. We got some
movement involving the Donald.
Speaker 3 (40:02):
Last the last time he did played that all call
and Ronnie didn't even play the call. But Alex call
against left handed pitchers is so good. People, people don't
like that. People don't like you say.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
And brock Stewart against right handed hitters, holding him to
a one zero four batting average. By all right, Well,
what do we got the Dodgers? According to multiple outlets,
now are trading Dustin May to the Boston Red Sox. Wow,
now heaving ahead to the Red Sox. Yep, dust and
(40:39):
May traded to the Boston Red Sox. What is coming
back in return has still not been revealed from any insider.
Jeff Passing, Ken Rosenthal all on it right now, but nobody.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
Should have it at the next few moments.
Speaker 4 (40:56):
We should.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
I'm wad of so that is breaking. That is actual
real deadline in six minutes. Although stuff does get announced
after three o'clock, that is some real doss boat alarm.
Speaker 4 (41:10):
Well, let's see what they get back in return. It's
not like they're gonna get Jaron Duran. For all those
of you who had already texted me and said we're
gonna get Jared Duran for Dustin mat No, that will
never happen. Dustin May's final a year of his contract,
really good starting pitcher now that he's healthy. But then
you're not gonna get Jared Duran back in return. I
don't think it's gonna be somebody that caliber. And we're
still not seeing what's coming back in return.
Speaker 3 (41:32):
But so, Dustin May is the guy that had a
Tommy John and then he was a huge Dodger prospect
with amazing stuff. Big guy throws real hard, had Tommy
John surgery, recovered from that, and then had a bad
esophagal emergency that kept him out for another season. Is
(41:52):
that correct?
Speaker 4 (41:53):
That's correct?
Speaker 3 (41:54):
Okay, so he missed two seasons. He came back this
year on an expiring contract. He's not been bad.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
Oh, He's pitched well, career high in innings and starts made.
He's been out there every five days when Dave Roberts
has needed somebody to pitch. Him and Yoshi Yamamoto have
been the two most reliable guys, and then Clayton Kershall
right behind them. After his staggered started the season. He
has been reliable when they've asked him to go out
and pitch. This year, Petros, he has done it.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
So thanks for your consistency, we're shipping you out to Boston,
Big Red. Kind of sad for Dustin Made. Vassay told
us that he took a picture with his wife on
the mound at Dodger Stadium after his last outing there,
which they won, and he kind of mentioned that and
(42:41):
it started the trade rumors, and Vassay was accredited on
MLB Network and all the different places with the guy
reporting that Dustin May could be a piece, and he
obviously was. After Vassay reported it, Rosenthal and all the
other national types started picking it up. And I don't
know if Dustin May was sitting around thinking, Wow, I
(43:02):
made it. And then the last ten minutes of the
trade deadline, he gets moved to the Boston Red Sox.
That has to suck. Yeah, I mean it's not like
he's going to Minnesota. Boston's a great place and a
great team and a great franchise, comparable to the Dodgers
in history and all that stuff, but still not ideal
(43:23):
for that young man. That's too bad.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (43:24):
One name that will not be on the move is
Sandy al Contra, the Cy Young Award winning right hander
for the Miami Marlins, coming off Tommy John surgery. In
his last two starts twelve innings, no runs given up
in those twelve innings. He had been talked about today
and possibly going to the Yankees. The Cubs were mentioned,
The Dodgers were mentioned as well, the Padres briefly, the Rangers,
(43:48):
the Astros all mentioned in a possible trade for Sandy
al concert one of the best right handed pitchers in
baseball coming off with Tommy John surgery and looks like
he's maybe gotten over that hump coming back from this surgery.
He is going to stay put in Miami. The Athletics
saying that the Marlins are not going to trade the
right hander here at the deadline.
Speaker 3 (44:08):
So what did they get for dustin May? Is it
still not out? Still not really? What did the Dodgers get?
Do they get a guy that's really good against the
split finger fastball? Like we're getting pretty specific here.
Speaker 4 (44:20):
Yeah, we've already gotten a right handed hitter who's really
good against left handed pitching and a what was the
other one, oh, Brock Stewart, who is really good against
right handed hitters, holding them to a one to oh
four batting average and an OPS that is ridiculously low
at three twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (44:36):
So it's all just dust and May stuff. We are
not seeing the other side of the trade yet, no.
Speaker 4 (44:44):
And we're seeing a little bit of flurry of trade
smaller ones. The Padres made another deal, this is I
think their fourth or fifth trade today, picking up left
hander Nestor Cortes for the Milwaukee Brewers. Dodger fans, you
remember Nestor Cortes. He was a guy that came out
of the bullpen and the tenth inning and Freddie Freeman
then turned around a ball for a Grand Slam in
Game one of the World Series a year ago at
(45:05):
Dodger Stadium. That Nestor Cortes, Yes, now on the Brewers today,
just now traded to the San Diego Padres.
Speaker 3 (45:12):
Ooh, that's not good for the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
So no, the Padres loading up on pitching. They pick
up two more bats at the trade deadline, and again
just saying Red Sox acquiring Dustin May from the Dodgers.
But what is coming back to the Dodgers has not
been reported yet. As we are now thirty seconds away
from the trade deadline. Pretty soon the teacher's gonna say,
pencils down test is over and the deadline will have passed.
Speaker 3 (45:38):
Petros, All right, Well play our three or four alarms,
just so we tell we could tell everybody that we
were really prepared. The schools out for Super eighties. Alarm clock,
the viper our alarm of.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
The pencils down Trano deadline is done.
Speaker 3 (46:07):
That's it, But we still know what the Dodgers got
for Dustin.
Speaker 4 (46:10):
By three o'clock Pacific.
Speaker 3 (46:12):
Got I feel like we ordered a Malaysian bride and
we don't know what she's gonna look.
Speaker 4 (46:17):
Like, but you're so anxious to see what she looks like.
You cannot wait. You got your little delivery saying, okay,
it's on its way. You'll be delivered between five and
eight pm tonight.
Speaker 3 (46:26):
You already said don't expect too much, because you know
the Dustin May is on an expiring contract.
Speaker 4 (46:33):
I've always got Lefty hefty expectations. Uh wow. The Yankees
add a huge piece to their bullpen. They get Giants
closer Camillo Davall, who is really nasty.
Speaker 3 (46:47):
The Giants are sellers.
Speaker 4 (46:48):
The Giants are sellers. The Yankees pick up another huge
bullpen piece. I'm telling you teams have loaded up to
knock off the Dodgers. Yankees, met Billies, Pod Rangers, Astros.
They are all going in to beat the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (47:04):
And Dustin May is gone, James Autman gone, some guy
named Alex call is here.
Speaker 4 (47:14):
There will be some possible trades announced over the next
few minutes because they've been worked on and tentatively agreed on,
so they're still allowed to finish off those trades that
have already been started, but any talks are now done.
Speaker 3 (47:30):
We'll be right back trade deadline. Excellent reporting from Tim

Speaker 3 (03:02):
The hardest working man in radio at Tim Kates on Twitter.
It is on the Southern California Toyota Dieters celebrity guest microphone,
not really a guest on his show. It is Tim Kates. Hello, Tim, heype.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
We are on trade watch right now, trade watch, trade watch,
trade watch all day long. As we are now minus
fifty seven minutes away from the Major League Baseball trade deadline.
And I know that's why you want to meet today.
In that's absence. You said, who is the biggest seam
head that I know that can sit here and talk
(03:39):
about all this trade talk and rumors and stuff that's
happening across baseball, And I am your guy.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
P Yes, and I appreciate that. We will talk to Dave,
who got a little bit upset with Fred after that question.
We will talk to Dave at what three point thirty?
So the deadline is when clock Pacific? Okay, and then
Dave will join us at.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
Three point thirty and.
Speaker 3 (04:07):
By then all the dust will have settled. Now, when
it comes to the very end of this, are we
relatively certain or relatively confident that the Dodgers are done
or are there still trades left? There's still a lot
of meat on the bone.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
As they say, there is still a lot of meat
on the bone, and players that are available. A lot
of players have come off the board that we're available
in trade talks. Pee, the Dodgers have made one trade
of note, they made a lesser deal this morning to
add another arm. But brock Stewart, former Dodger, now coming
back to the Dodgers as a reliever from the Minnesota Twins.
(04:49):
He comes in a trade straight up, unfortunately, Petros for
one of your favorites and your dad's favorites, James out.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Yeah, is gone. We'll have more on that as the
show continues. More on the James Autman tragedy, the fact
that he couldn't get a hit for the last I
don't know, eight months or something as a Dodger, collectively
(05:23):
playing up not exactly heartening. A lot of texts when
the Outman news, they just traded him straight up for
one guy, like in Dumb and Dumber when they traded
that little motorbike for the shag and wagon.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
That's it. You give me your guy, We'll give you
our guy, rock Stewart for James Allman, straight up.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
And brock Stewart is a reliever who can strike out
right handed guys.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
Yeah. Brock Stewart is a former Dodger minor league star.
Came up with the Dodgers many years ago, was a
starting pitcher for them, sort of fizzled out of baseball.
Petros was playing independent ball had Tommy John surgery resurrected
his career. It's been really good as a reliever the
last two seasons, and here in twenty twenty five has
really become an elite reliever against right handed batters, so
(06:09):
much so that a lot of teams were trying to
get him at the deadline and the Dodgers were the
winners and the Brock Stewart sweepstakes. How about that.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
So you're telling me that the Dodgers did not value
James Autman's pinch running and outfield prowess.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
Well, wait a second. The almost catch that he had
last night in center field was pretty impressive. The almost
catch that he went up and almost robbed Spencer Steer
of a three run home run was pretty impressive.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
So that's all we got, and it's not considered to
be a major.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Trade, no, but it helps out this Dodgers team. If
they needed something, it was a right handed reliever that
could get right handed hitters out. I mean, in fact,
Andrew Friedman told you guys this on the field that
Dodgers Stadium a few months ago. David Vasse refers to
it a lot when talking about what the Dodgers may
do at the trade deadline. That Andrew i Eman told
(07:00):
you guys, a high leverage reliever that could get right
handed hitters out, and that's exactly what they did brock
Stewart in thirty six games this year. That's funny because
I totally wasn't paying attention when he said that. I
had no idea he said that to him. I'm glad
David was paying attention because he's referred to it a lot.
But brock Stewart this year, thirty six games, has dominated
right handed beaming.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
You do really impactful interviews for this show.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
Yeah, that make news. Yet you don't know about him. Well,
I'm here for that, right.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I just watched Scooby Doo or something while people are talking.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Well, brock Stewart has held right handed batters to a
one zero five batting average a three twenty seven ops,
both numbers which are really good for the pitcher and
really bad for the hitters, and has twenty nine strikeouts
in those thirty six games. That's very impressive. Now against
left handed batters, they're hitting over three thirty with an
OPS near a thousand. But against right handed hitters, brock
(07:53):
Stewart has been really good this year.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
So Andrew Friedman didn't say anything to us about left
handed hitters. That must not be a problem exactly, all right.
So if the Dodgers were to stand pat and not
do anything as we approach, you know, we're like fifty
two minutes away from the end of the trade deadline,
So if they were to stand pat, it would be
(08:16):
considered a pretty lackadaisical effort by some others would say
they have guys coming back from injury, which is what
we hear every year. You know, the trade deadline is
the il The guys are coming up, they're coming back. Yeah,
we've done that four or five years since I can
remember doing this kind of stuff. What would the Dodgers do?
(08:39):
Who would the Dodgers get in these waning moments that
would be considered a big trade or a bigger move,
or something that would excite the fan base, like the
Padres or the Seattle fan base is excited right now.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Well, let's just say the Padres have gone all in
this year. Aj Preller, their general manager at the deadline,
has added Mason Miller Reiver. He's added Sears, a left
handed arm in the back end of the rotation, and
they've added two more bats than they've picked up from
the Baltimore Orioles in first base from Ryan O'Hearn and
Ramon Loreano, the outfielder who are both slug hitters for
the San Diego Padres. The Dodgers need a guy like
(09:15):
Steve Kwan Stephen Kwan, who went to Oregon State and
Northern California. Guy under the age of thirty, still can
play outfield, could hit for average, could hit for power.
That's the kind of guy the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Will want up.
Speaker 4 (09:25):
But uh oh uh oh, Petros, we have a we
have we have some news here, a lot, we have
some we have some news here involving Let's see here
if we can get this thing to work as it
is not.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
It better be working. It's the freaking trade deadline. What
are we doing? I'm depending on you.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Well, the Padres have made moves. The Arizona Diamondbacks have
given up on this season. Meanwhile, the Dodgers, with the
move for Brock Stewart, helped out their bullpen. The Dodgers
have just added an outfield bat. As we speak, Patros.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Playing the timpany do something, make it big? Come on.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
The Dodgers have added an outfield bat and a bat
that they desperately needed in the outfield. It is Alex
Call from the Washington Nationals.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
All right, uh, forgive me all, forgive me for not
knowing much. But you know you're just talking about the
guy from Oregon State getting everybody all lathered up, the
Cleveland Guardian guy. What is the comparison between that guy
and this guy? Well, Alex Call.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Alex Call is an outfielder from the Washington Nationals hitting
two seventy four with three home runs twenty six rbi.
He is a right handed hitting outfielder that is probably
going to be more of a role player for this
Dodgers team than an actual everyday starter in the outfield
for the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
So he replaces like what ja outman was doing.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Yeah, he's not a big guy, five to eleven, can
play defense, but just doesn't do a lot for you
of offensively. He's around a little bit, just not going
to hit for power. Petros has never hit more than
ten home runs in a season and never hit more
than fifteen doubles in a season. He's just a guy.
He's a jag. He's a jag. That's what they got.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
Does this indicate So it's not like when they went
out and got Tommy Tanks last year or something like that.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Oh, this is not a move like Tommy Edmon at
the trade deadline. Far from it.
Speaker 3 (11:32):
So what does this mean when it comes to the
guy that you were just talking about, the ambassador of Kwan,
Stephen Kwan.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
They hit, they could still be in on Kwan because
I don't imagine they gave up a lot to get
Alex Call. I don't see exactly what the details are here,
but Alex Call is not a guy who I had
on my bingo board for the Dodgers going out and
trying to bolster their outfield the Nationals. Here we go,
Nationals will received two pitching prospects from the Dodgers for
(12:01):
outfielder Alex Call.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Who are those?
Speaker 4 (12:04):
It's not my guy, Frasso. I hope it's not Frasso.
I'm just not overwhelmed by Alex Call. I'm not overwhelmed
where I'm saying, yes, that's it. Way to match the
Padres move that they made with O'Hearn and Ramon Loreano
and Mason Miller. Not that you have to go toe
to toe and match it trade by trade at the deadline,
but certainly the Padres are stealing the headlines today. Petros,
(12:29):
the Mets, the Yankees, the Phillies, those four teams at
this deadline have stolen the headlines as far as gotten
their team's better, and the Dodgers have just kind of
added pieces.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Well, we discussed it over the last few months, and
something I do remember is the fact that the Dodgers
did all this stuff during the off season, and we
had so many offseason little celebrations. It's right for every
signing that they had, so they wouldn't have to overpay
(13:01):
like the Yankees or the Padres or the Mets at
the trade deadline. But the year has been such that
perhaps they should overpay at the trade deadline because they
have a lot of injuries and some needs. But it
looks like the former attitude is more prevalent than the latter.
They felt like they did their work in the offseason
(13:24):
and people are gonna get healthy.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Is that the case when the price is a little
cheaper as far as giving up prospects at the trade deadline,
you addressed your needs in the offseason. If you were
Andrew Freeman and Brandon Gomes, Tanner, Scott Kirby, Yates, Michael
confordo to high leverage, proving bullpen relievers, closers. If you
want them to left handed and right handed, you check
(13:47):
two boxes there, and you sign a left handed, hitting,
power hitting outfielder to play left field. You checked all
the boxes and you filled all your needs in the
off season. If you were the Dodgers, moves were made
in December. In January, so today you didn't have to
do what aj prel did and trade your top overall
prospect and three other top twenty prospects to get a
(14:11):
reliever in Mason Miller. This is what you didn't want
to get to today. But with that being said, Petros,
things haven't lived up to the hype, so the Dodgers
did need to add. I felt like they've needed to
add to this current roster to make it better. I
think Brox Stewart makes them better. I just don't know
much about Alex call and I don't know where this
makes this team better. On a twenty six man rosters.
(14:33):
Alex call gonna make this team better on a day
to day basis, whether it's a starter or off the bench.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
I just don't think so. Well, we're not to the
end yet, so let's forty five minutes to go. Yeah,
let's set our stage. We have multiple alarms to let
us know. Yeah, there's the that's the school fire alarm. Okay,
oh that one. That one drives me crazy. That's a
terrible one. That is the in nineteen eighties digital alarm clock,
(15:01):
ge alarm clock. Yeah. Yeah, that that thing is just
that is an evil apparatus. That's terrible. That's one of
my favorites. That is from Doss Boot. So that is
a Nazi submarine. And you know, well, Doss Boot is
(15:22):
actually an interesting movie. It's not only that, but one
of the most celebrated movies of the twentieth century. But
Doss Boot actually has you very sympathetic to not the
Nazi cause, but the cause of the Nazis in that
particular submarine. Yeah, and then that that is the viper
(15:46):
car alarm. If you ever lived not like alone on
the top of a hill in the eighties and nineties,
it is very likely that a friend of yours may
be with a Ford Mustang or a souped up Mitsubishi,
or with Momo Wood or something had the viper the
(16:07):
viper Carl alarm usually came along with the Kenwood face
that comes off on the tape deck or the tape
deck that comes all the way out with the suitcase.
That that would be Yeah, the viper Carl alarm. So
is that all four four? So well let's go. Yeah,
(16:28):
that schools out, wake your podcasts up for the ninety
three shot MC eights and the mother up and Nazi
Sub and then the viper. All right, So I'm feeling
I'm feeling pretty good about our ability, But what is
(16:50):
the prospect that we're actually going to play that with?
Meaning Like when you said, hey, let's look at this
right now, be Sub's coming in. Yeah, And I thought
it was going to be a whole thing, and it
was a little bit like the tsunami. Watch not that
I'm grateful that the tsunami. Yeah, I'm grateful that the
tsunami didn't hit you know, uh kawaie like we thought
(17:11):
watching all the webcams.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Yeah, I got a lot of pushback yesterday. I got
a home and I got some text from people saying,
why were you guys poo pooing the tsunami? Watch what
if it was a big deal and people got killed,
wouldn't you feel bad about that?
Speaker 3 (17:24):
Well, we would feel bad about it, but we wouldn't
have come on. We would have said, God, it's terrible.
Like what there was a fire in Maui, right, you
say this is horrible? You know they obviously obviously the
civic leaders failed everybody. Again, yeah, we would do all that.
But because the tsunami did not arrive and no waves
of consequence in the timeframe of the tsunami hit the island,
(17:49):
we were able to have a laugh at the people
on Twitter who were like, this is real, This is real.
Look at the water receiving here, it comes, the water's
receiving here, it comes here, it comes there, it comes
to their God, then it didn't come. Yeah, so I
feel like, you know, in the next fifty two minutes,
I don't want to be like the Weather Channel because
I don't think anything's gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (18:10):
Just testing it out, Petros, just testing it out. By
the way, an update on Alex Call doing a little digging.
As you're talking, Alex Call is going to play all
three outfield spots for the Dodgers wondering who this guy is.
And he hits left handed pitchers specifically, that's where his
strength is, so he could platoon with a Michael Conforto. Confordo,
left handed bat faces right handed pitchers, and then when
(18:31):
the Dodgers are facing a left handed starting pitcher, this
is where Alex Call then gets to start in outfield
and faces the left hander where he's got it ops
over eight hundred. Now, I don't know if that's a
specific need that the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
So these are very nuanced, Oh yes, very specific trades
that they're making.
Speaker 4 (18:49):
Very analytical moves. Petros analytical stuff here. Brox smarter than
us brock Stewart because he can strike out right handers,
copy of that, and Alex Call because he can hit
left handers. Copy that. Very specific things they can do.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
From what I understand, Tim, the situation regarding Conforto has
improved since the dead Fish handshake from David Vasse.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
His numbers have the case, Yeah, his numbers have gone up.
I think they actually started going up a little bit
before the handshake.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
But they have not a lost cause right now. Michael Conforto.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
As long as he keeps playing the way he has
been playing the last week a week and a half offensively,
then yes, getting on bass, taking walks, you know, being
a guy that can do kind of everything at the plate,
hit for power, hit for average, then yes, what he's
supposed to do and was supposed to do the first
three months of the season for the Dodgers. If you
could do that, then yes he'll stay.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
And is there anything else like some I mean, because
the call thing is way off the radar, right, And no,
I don't hear anybody mentioned brock Stewart in the last few.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Months that say, to his credit, not on he talked
to rock Stewart last week when the Twins were in town.
But Dave's been talking about brock Stewart and mentioning his
name with us on Dodgers on Deck when we've been
talking trade talks the last few weeks on the pregame show,
Dave has brought up brock Stewart's name, so.
Speaker 3 (20:14):
He was somebody they were talking about. But these aren't
considered to be things that people know. We're just like
waiting on a perch for oh no to pounds. These
are very, very nuanced, very very specific moves that the
Dodgers have made this trade deadline. But it's not over yet.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
We are loaded with alarms, just testing it out, petros,
just testing it out.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
We are on until four o'clock, then we will go
to Chargers versus the Detroit Lions. Before we go to break,
we should tell you that we do have a live
event coming up and it is a week from tomorrow,
right the third stop. So we're getting close. It's time
to really promote this thing. Are you? Did you do
(20:57):
that like Tony Bruno because you've got something up your sleeve.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
No, I'm excited about the tour stop next Friday.
Speaker 3 (21:03):
Right because we're still walking out of the bathroom with
just our junk in our hand right.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Now, right, What is that supposed to do?
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Well, I'm just saying I asked for an acoustics surf
guitar guy, like one guitarist, like and and you know
we have one guy.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
We have a DJ playing surf music.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Okay, and you know, and then Matt's gonna get a
bunch of surfers on and be like, hey, I was
there when you were there with that skag and the
seventy fitter and that you know that left. I mean
it's going to be like that was right, So, I mean,
but is that enough? Like, Okay, whatever, I'll figure it out.
I'll buy a tank top the third stop of the
petrosson Monay summer tour. His next Friday, August eighth, three
(21:44):
to six from h Q Gastropub and Hunting to Beach.
All I'm saying is we had a full blown, like
giant Mariachi band just kicking ass at our last event. Yeah,
and I just feel like having a dude with like
Jimmy Hendrix playing the National anthem and woodstock like that
(22:07):
style of acoustic elect not acoustic but solo electric surf guitar. Okay,
solo electric surf guitar.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Okay. You know it's still time to work on that Petro.
So I'll get on.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
It, all right. I mean, it doesn't feel like you're
getting on it. It doesn't feel like anybody cares.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
As soon as the trade deadline passes in thirty eight minutes,
I'll get right on it, Okay.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Well. The HQ's Gastropub in Huntington is located on Pacific
Post Coast Highway between fifth and six.
Speaker 4 (22:42):
Oh it's gonna be going off next Friday, and.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
We aren't just walking out of the bathroom with our
junk in our hand. We've got Dodger tickets, chargers preseason
tickets to not get away at the MGM resort in
Las Vegas of their choice. Yes, enjoy lively pool parties, poshcabanas,

Toyota Sweet, James Bergener, Modelos, Surf Side Vodka and Barry

Speaker 4 (23:21):
Just testing it out, just testing it out.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
There was one big Nazi on the boat in dos Boot,
like one true believer, and the rest of the guys
were pretty disillusioned with the cause, you know, but they
were soldiers or sailors understandably. Allah Trade deadline day, we'll
(23:47):
do the word number song of the day coming up
next unless there's a train, and we'll go all the
way until four o'clock. Thanks everybody, let's pet you some

Sports with you on this crunching griven Thursday. There is
no Dodgers today, No Dodger Talk.
Speaker 4 (24:37):
Who's your guest on Dodger Talk, David?
Speaker 3 (24:39):
Who's the pregame guest?
Speaker 4 (24:40):
What do you got on pregame David?
Speaker 3 (24:42):
There is no Dodger Talk, there is no pregame show,
there is no game, and there is no off night
Dodger Talk as there would be because of that. Yes,
Chargers versus Lions, Dodgers Matt Muney, Smith, Daniel Jeremiah, Shannon Farren,
Isaac Loewenkron the Hall of Fame game. Pregame at four,
(25:07):
kickoff at five from Candon, Ohio. I think this is
the first Hall of Fame game that the Chargers have
been in since Matt's been calling the games, So that's
pretty exciting. And we'll be right back at it again
with the Dodgers. The Dodgers with Brock Stewart and Alex
Call tomorrow, Dodgers on deck at three thirty, first pitch
(25:33):
at four thirty five, So that means Matt and I
will start at one a clock.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
You mean left handed pitching specialist Alex.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
Call, Yes, and waking against right handers brought it? Yeah. Wow.
Some people have said, and it's not texto so but
some people have said, Tim that you you are a
little too excited about call that you're selling you, you're
(26:07):
selling Call a little too hard.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
Well, I don't know any other left handed hitting or
excuse me, right handed hitting threat off the bench that
hits at eight seventy ops against left handers other than
now it's call. So you find one, you come, tell
me who that person is?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
All right? Any any scuttle butt? Tim, I'm doing insurance
check here. We've got David Vasse next hour. But right
now you're the guy, Yeah, looking right now? Are your
hornstraw passing your everything rolled into one buster only.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
On me?
Speaker 2 (26:46):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (26:46):
What do you got?
Speaker 4 (26:47):
The Cubs made a deal acquiring super utility man Willie
Castro from the Minnesota Twins, who have basically sold off
their entire roster outside of Byron Buxton.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
So the Twins have sold everybody and so of the
nap Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Right.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
The Rangers have acquired Merrill Kelly from the Arizona Diamondbacks,
who have become sellers this year at the deadline. They
gave up three prospects for that. And the Angels, who
have pushed their chips into the middle of the table
for some reason. They've added Oswald Parraza from the Yankees,
who is coming off an ankle injury. So there you go.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
So there there's a lot of stuff happening.
Speaker 4 (27:24):
There's a lot of movement, yes, and a lot of
the teams at the top of the divisions are making moves.
And that's fun to see, right, that's fun to see
moves being made by the Yankees and the teams like
the Cubs and the Mariners in the AL West, the
Rangers in the AL West, the Padres in the NL West.
The teams that have a shot at knocking off the
(27:45):
Dodgers have all made moves here at the deadline. Petros
to get better.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
All right, And should Dodger fans be unhappy? Should they
be upset by this?
Speaker 4 (27:55):
No, I don't have They will be Petros. Dodger fans
are gonna be upset because in a moment.
Speaker 3 (28:00):
There's no Dodger talk, there's no Dodger talk, they won't
have a there's no pregame show, they won't have a
forum to be upset. And then if they win tomorrow,
then have you know? I mean, people are so swept
up in the moment. I get it.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
It's the moment. I've received no less than like six
texts in the last hour saying what are the Dodgers doing?
Why aren't they making a big move like the Podres,
And I keep hitting the same response to everybody. They
made their moves in the off season. That's where the
moves were made. Tanner, Scott Kirby, Yates, Michael Conforto. I
don't expect them in the next twenty four minutes time
(28:38):
check before at three o'clock Pacific, to make a bolstering
move like the Padres have made multiple ones today to
get better. They'll They've made two trades to fill specific needs,
specific needs. They've done in these two trades. They're not
gonna make big earth shattering moves here in the next
twenty three and a half minutes.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
All right, five whatever. I know.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
It sucks because in the moment you're like, wells are
doing and we're not.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Alarm Yeah, I mean it's like Christmas.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
Right, Yeah, it's like getting your Christmas gift I don't
know in July. Well, and then all our friends open
them up in Christmas. In December. You're like, dude, I
got mine months ago.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
The kids across the street, yeah, are opening presents and
we got nothing. We're coming out of the bathroom with
our junk in our hands. I'm like, yeah again with
that reference, it is that God better be there. I
don't want my brother coming out of that bathroom with
only his junk in his hand. All right, it is
time for the word of the day.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
With his words the word of the day.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Today's word of the day is update on my brilliant,
militant reggae inspired ten under little league team from Palace Verdes.
Could I have somebody? Yeah, there we go. You know
that the team, my friend's team, Palace Verdi's little league
ten under team with the big Swede.
Speaker 4 (30:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
They did lose. Oh they did. That's unfortunately, well they
ended up. You know, if they won, you don't think
you would have heard about it.
Speaker 4 (30:08):
Well, I thought they were still going on petros.
Speaker 3 (30:10):
They ended up third in the state, but they were
eliminated and they are not headed to Williams Point. But
there have been lots of requests on the on the
bright side for the Black Power reggae that drove the
children to the run that they did go on, which
third in the state is very respectable run.
Speaker 4 (30:31):
That's a heck of a run.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
I mean, this is a big state.
Speaker 4 (30:34):
Good for them.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
So congratulations to Ryan Wagoner, coach Tim Dietrich, the good
people at Claremont McKenna that let him hit there. But
I was made aware that the west Chester Delray Little
League girls softball did win the West Oh congratulations to
(30:56):
this west Chester Delray, which I guess is just an
amalgamation of the two communities because they're neighboring. They are
headed to the Little League World Series for softball. That's awesome,
which is in Greenville, North Carolina, same place as the
ECU Pirates East Carolina University with the giant skull and
(31:18):
pirate hat that goes from twenty yard line to twenty
yard line in that beautiful stadium, big party school ECU.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Is it really Yeah?
Speaker 3 (31:26):
So the softball Chicks girls flew out this week and
their Cougar Moms and their first game is on Monday,
So good luck to the girls of Marina Westchester del Rey.
They scored eleven runs in the last inning to beat
(31:50):
Tucson twelve to two. No way, which was tough for
the girls of the Dirty Tea, no doubt.
Speaker 4 (31:57):
They're down two to one in the last inning in
one eleven. That's awesome.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
I mean they could have just scored three anyway. Great
for the great for the west Way to go west
Chester del Rey.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
Are you gonna keep following him through the weeks here
as a cat run?
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Yeah? I mean somebody made me aware of it, and
I knew I had to give a follow up. But
people are still asking for the Black Militant Reggae playlist.
One of my old teammates, Travis Watkins old Ti Liman, Yeah,
one of old Reggie Bush's old teammates from Helix High
and San Diego. He he asked for it, had a
(32:41):
few others.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
Can you post that somehow on social media?
Speaker 3 (32:44):
Petrol, I don't know. I guess I could, but I'd
rather just, you know, exclusively give it over to Textoso types.
Speaker 4 (32:50):
What if you burned a bunch of CDs.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
Have to like my dad. Yes, my dad's having a
rough day already with the Tarzan stuff. Have you checked
in on him? Dave sent us a blank attext. Oh nice,
Dave sent us a text. But Dave sent us a
mocking You know, Dave's an a hole? Really, you know?
Well to my dad about outman, Yeah, totally. Dave's just like, oh,
be good trained. My Dad's like thanks for the update.
(33:16):
So very terse words between the two men that we're
both very closely associated with. Uh So, anyway, good luck
to the Westchester del Rey women. And girls are the
girls of the of the Marina and the women that
are their mothers and their fathers.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
Here's our number. Number of the day.
Speaker 4 (33:37):
Number of the day is one. Petro says in one
episode of the new podcast called Show Me Something with
Sophie Cunningham.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Is that an iHeart podcast?
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I think it's actually through calling Cowherd's the Volume, Oh
the Volume podcast company. She has got a new podcast
with her Shannon Sharp still work there? I don't think so.
Sophie Cunningham and her childhood friend in one of the
stars of Summerhouse, a TV show West Wilson have paired
(34:09):
together for a new podcast. They're both from Columbia, Missouri,
growing up knowing each other forever, and now they got
a podcast called Show Me Something. And in the first episode,
Sophie Cunningham, of course the enforcer that is on the
Indiana Fever, very attractive young lady has soared in popularity
this year because of what she's done alongside She just.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
Grabbed that one check by the back of the neck
yep at the Connecticut Sun girl who did the curly
mow eye scrape to Caitlin Clark, and then Sophie Cunningham
fouled her hard and then grabbed her by the back
of the neck and started manhandling her. And that that
(34:50):
was the moment. That was the moment that she became popular.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
She became a star right then and there. She's very attractive.
She likes to show herself off on social media and
she has doubled her followers on all of her social
media platforms. She's now become an endorser of different products.
And on her first episode of her new podcast, Show
Me Something, with her friend Wes Wilson made headlines already
(35:14):
today with these comments.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
And it literally like pisses me off, and people are like,
she's not the face of the league.
Speaker 4 (35:20):
About Kaylyn Clark, who would be?
Speaker 5 (35:21):
What Sabrina, No, No, there's really good, well known people
in our league. I'm not discrediting them, like we have
a lot of badasses in our league.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
Yeah, like hell yeah, of that. I'm all for that.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
But when people will try to argue that she's not
the face of our league or our league would be
where we're at without her, you're dumba yeah, you're literally dumb.
Speaker 4 (35:41):
Yes, yes, Sophie Cunningham finally recognizing that Caitlin Clark is
the face and the star of her league, the w NBA.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
It's very hard for them to say that it is right.
It's very difficult. There's a lot of truth to face
for some people, and that is that is one of them.
Speaker 4 (36:04):
How big is Sophie Cunningham got in the last two
and a half months, Our friend, Lakers owner Genie Buss,
who's also co owner of Wow Women of Wrestling, went
to social media over the weekend, was I.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Thought she was the owner of Glow the Gorgeous Ladies
of Wrestling.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
I think it's Wow now maybe correction and retraction that's
all right, that's all.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Right, corrections and retraction.
Speaker 4 (36:31):
It was brought up on another platform that hey, the
WOW should go get Sophie Cunningham and be a woman's wrestler,
and Genie saw that comment and put it up on
X and said, quote, We'd love to have Sophie Cunningham
join us at Women of Wrestling. She is talented, dedicated,
and a fierce competitor. Now, Sophie was asked about this
(36:54):
and said right now, she is not interested in doing it,
but said with the smile, well, we'll see.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Well, I mean, she doesn't have to go on tour
with him, like Dbias was described the other day.
Speaker 4 (37:07):
Maybe just an appearance like coming out of the back, do.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
A matinee and Shreveport and then we would drive to
Biloxi and then we would do a bunch of ludes
and my god, but I I you know, from everybody
from Donald Trump to h Dennis Rodman to Carl Malone
to yeah, like a lot of people have had dalliances
(37:33):
in the world of professional wrestling and performed with those athletes.
So I'm sure we'll see her in some capacity.
Speaker 4 (37:40):
I think she can make a lot of money with
the WWE. No offense to wow the women of wrestling,
but she could probably make a want to take paycheck
going to the w WE.
Speaker 3 (37:49):
You want to take everything from Genie. She's already lost
her basketball team, all right, Ronnie's there, runnish.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
The song of the day.
Speaker 6 (38:02):
The Beach Boys present today's song of the day, called
the Trader. Because the MLB deadline is upon us, and
there have been a lot of moves being made for
the playoff push and the Petros and Money show us
all over it on a crunchy grooven Thursday. And there's
also a flex alert going on because of NFL foosball. Yes,
(38:23):
NFL foosball is back with the Chargers and Lions featured
in the NFL Hall of Fame game in Canton, where
coverage begins with Isaac Glohenkron and a KFI simulcast at
four o'clock.
Speaker 3 (38:36):
Hang you, Ronie, and we shall return.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
I mean, nothing happening, just testing it out, Patrick, See.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
Like the Tsudami guy.
Speaker 4 (38:45):
Now we got fourteen minutes until the trade deadline.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
Stay with us. We'll be right back on this trade
deadline Thursday. Much ado about nothing when it comes to
the Yo Yo Yo Yo yo, yo, yoyo yo.
Speaker 2 (39:00):
Of a second, we're good.
Speaker 4 (39:08):
Teams.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
Just go to AM five to seventy LA Sports on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Hey, everybody, what's cracking? Welcome back, Petro, send money on
this trade deadline Thursday. We're on early, We're off early.
We started too, We're done at four. No baseball talk
into the evening Chargers versus Lions Hall of Fame game preseason.
Speaker 4 (39:57):
All right, yes, we've got some movement. We got some
movement involving the Donald.
Speaker 3 (40:02):
Last the last time he did played that all call
and Ronnie didn't even play the call. But Alex call
against left handed pitchers is so good. People, people don't
like that. People don't like you say.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
And brock Stewart against right handed hitters, holding him to
a one zero four batting average. By all right, Well,
what do we got the Dodgers? According to multiple outlets,
now are trading Dustin May to the Boston Red Sox. Wow,
now heaving ahead to the Red Sox. Yep, dust and
(40:39):
May traded to the Boston Red Sox. What is coming
back in return has still not been revealed from any insider.
Jeff Passing, Ken Rosenthal all on it right now, but nobody.
Speaker 3 (40:54):
Should have it at the next few moments.
Speaker 4 (40:56):
We should.
Speaker 3 (40:57):
I'm wad of so that is breaking. That is actual
real deadline in six minutes. Although stuff does get announced
after three o'clock, that is some real doss boat alarm.
Speaker 4 (41:10):
Well, let's see what they get back in return. It's
not like they're gonna get Jaron Duran. For all those
of you who had already texted me and said we're
gonna get Jared Duran for Dustin mat No, that will
never happen. Dustin May's final a year of his contract,
really good starting pitcher now that he's healthy. But then
you're not gonna get Jared Duran back in return. I
don't think it's gonna be somebody that caliber. And we're
still not seeing what's coming back in return.
Speaker 3 (41:32):
But so, Dustin May is the guy that had a
Tommy John and then he was a huge Dodger prospect
with amazing stuff. Big guy throws real hard, had Tommy
John surgery, recovered from that, and then had a bad
esophagal emergency that kept him out for another season. Is
(41:52):
that correct?
Speaker 4 (41:53):
That's correct?
Speaker 3 (41:54):
Okay, so he missed two seasons. He came back this
year on an expiring contract. He's not been bad.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
Oh, He's pitched well, career high in innings and starts made.
He's been out there every five days when Dave Roberts
has needed somebody to pitch. Him and Yoshi Yamamoto have
been the two most reliable guys, and then Clayton Kershall
right behind them. After his staggered started the season. He
has been reliable when they've asked him to go out
and pitch. This year, Petros, he has done it.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
So thanks for your consistency, we're shipping you out to Boston,
Big Red. Kind of sad for Dustin Made. Vassay told
us that he took a picture with his wife on
the mound at Dodger Stadium after his last outing there,
which they won, and he kind of mentioned that and
(42:41):
it started the trade rumors, and Vassay was accredited on
MLB Network and all the different places with the guy
reporting that Dustin May could be a piece, and he
obviously was. After Vassay reported it, Rosenthal and all the
other national types started picking it up. And I don't
know if Dustin May was sitting around thinking, Wow, I
(43:02):
made it. And then the last ten minutes of the
trade deadline, he gets moved to the Boston Red Sox.
That has to suck. Yeah, I mean it's not like
he's going to Minnesota. Boston's a great place and a
great team and a great franchise, comparable to the Dodgers
in history and all that stuff, but still not ideal
(43:23):
for that young man. That's too bad.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (43:24):
One name that will not be on the move is
Sandy al Contra, the Cy Young Award winning right hander
for the Miami Marlins, coming off Tommy John surgery. In
his last two starts twelve innings, no runs given up
in those twelve innings. He had been talked about today
and possibly going to the Yankees. The Cubs were mentioned,
The Dodgers were mentioned as well, the Padres briefly, the Rangers,
(43:48):
the Astros all mentioned in a possible trade for Sandy
al concert one of the best right handed pitchers in
baseball coming off with Tommy John surgery and looks like
he's maybe gotten over that hump coming back from this surgery.
He is going to stay put in Miami. The Athletics
saying that the Marlins are not going to trade the
right hander here at the deadline.
Speaker 3 (44:08):
So what did they get for dustin May? Is it
still not out? Still not really? What did the Dodgers get?
Do they get a guy that's really good against the
split finger fastball? Like we're getting pretty specific here.
Speaker 4 (44:20):
Yeah, we've already gotten a right handed hitter who's really
good against left handed pitching and a what was the
other one, oh, Brock Stewart, who is really good against
right handed hitters, holding them to a one to oh
four batting average and an OPS that is ridiculously low
at three twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (44:36):
So it's all just dust and May stuff. We are
not seeing the other side of the trade yet, no.
Speaker 4 (44:44):
And we're seeing a little bit of flurry of trade
smaller ones. The Padres made another deal, this is I
think their fourth or fifth trade today, picking up left
hander Nestor Cortes for the Milwaukee Brewers. Dodger fans, you
remember Nestor Cortes. He was a guy that came out
of the bullpen and the tenth inning and Freddie Freeman
then turned around a ball for a Grand Slam in
Game one of the World Series a year ago at
(45:05):
Dodger Stadium. That Nestor Cortes, Yes, now on the Brewers today,
just now traded to the San Diego Padres.
Speaker 3 (45:12):
Ooh, that's not good for the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
So no, the Padres loading up on pitching. They pick
up two more bats at the trade deadline, and again
just saying Red Sox acquiring Dustin May from the Dodgers.
But what is coming back to the Dodgers has not
been reported yet. As we are now thirty seconds away
from the trade deadline. Pretty soon the teacher's gonna say,
pencils down test is over and the deadline will have passed.
Speaker 3 (45:38):
Petros, All right, Well play our three or four alarms,
just so we tell we could tell everybody that we
were really prepared. The schools out for Super eighties. Alarm clock,
the viper our alarm of.
Speaker 4 (45:59):
The pencils down Trano deadline is done.
Speaker 3 (46:07):
That's it, But we still know what the Dodgers got
for Dustin.
Speaker 4 (46:10):
By three o'clock Pacific.
Speaker 3 (46:12):
Got I feel like we ordered a Malaysian bride and
we don't know what she's gonna look.
Speaker 4 (46:17):
Like, but you're so anxious to see what she looks like.
You cannot wait. You got your little delivery saying, okay,
it's on its way. You'll be delivered between five and
eight pm tonight.
Speaker 3 (46:26):
You already said don't expect too much, because you know
the Dustin May is on an expiring contract.
Speaker 4 (46:33):
I've always got Lefty hefty expectations. Uh wow. The Yankees
add a huge piece to their bullpen. They get Giants
closer Camillo Davall, who is really nasty.
Speaker 3 (46:47):
The Giants are sellers.
Speaker 4 (46:48):
The Giants are sellers. The Yankees pick up another huge
bullpen piece. I'm telling you teams have loaded up to
knock off the Dodgers. Yankees, met Billies, Pod Rangers, Astros.
They are all going in to beat the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (47:04):
And Dustin May is gone, James Autman gone, some guy
named Alex call is here.
Speaker 4 (47:14):
There will be some possible trades announced over the next
few minutes because they've been worked on and tentatively agreed on,
so they're still allowed to finish off those trades that
have already been started, but any talks are now done.
Speaker 3 (47:30):
We'll be right back trade deadline. Excellent reporting from Tim
Kaits on AMPI seventy LA Sports
