Dodgers Baseball tonight, the Freeway Series Angels in town. It'll
be a Dodger Stadium. First pitch seven to ten from
the Galpin Motors broadcast booth. David Vassal be long be

(01:10):
along at five point thirty to get you ready for
Dodgers on Deck at six going to be a wildly
entertaining weekend, no doubt, especially after last night's nineteen run
outburst against the A's atoning for their getting throttled already
once in the series, and.

Speaker 3 (01:28):
Matt to celebrate that throttling. Well, I guess we'd do
it anyway. It is a Frogman Friday. From Finns to
the left, Finns to the right, and you're the only
bait in town, my Frogman Friday. The Peterson Money Show

(01:51):
celebrates the intricacies of the sea in the Pacific Ocean
and it's many mysteries. We also celebrate a great television show.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
That was.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Well shot many years ago now, but we still talk
about it in the leagues today, like Shoeless Joe Jackson.
We're talking about Mike Nelson, the character, Lloyd Bridges, the actor,
the setting, the marine land of the Pacific in Ranch
of Palace Verdi's the show Sea Hunt.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
A harbor like this should bustle with activity. Normally it did,
but the city of Melabang was under siege.

Speaker 3 (02:40):
Now it was a double siege.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
The port was paralyzed from within by the threat of plague, cholera.
It was cut off from the outside by a military blockade.
The blockade had been imposed by the new self appointed dictator,
Colonel Pranjat. This was his answer Melabang's demand for constitutional
liberty for itself from the rest of the country. The

(03:05):
gun boats were reinforced by an underwater minefield from the
docks to the harbor entrance. The mines were crude and
put together in a hurry, but that only made them
more deadly. Obviously, the gunboats knew the exact location of

(03:25):
each mine. Still they came a lot too close for safety,
theirs and mine.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Well, that's fabulous. Are we all a reference? Are we
getting excited for DNA rule thirteen to five? What are
you nuts? We still got to take that, Lord of man.
You know what that's like. These days.

Speaker 5 (03:45):
You got the Navy everywhere, you got frogmen, you got
the EC twos with the satellite tracking, you got the
SPELL two to nine as salt choppers up the ass.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
We're losing one out of every nine loads. That's no
duck walk anymore. Let me tell you, forget about money.
What do you suggest that's reasonable? Bea rule? Thank you?
Todd lying, I don't know what.

Speaker 4 (04:49):
All your dog Your Dogs.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
R Dodgers versus Angels to night. Dustin May pitches tonight,
but tomorrow night, Clayton Kershaw's gonna pitch. Clayton Kershaw has
been pitching for the Dodgers longer than the Petros and
Money Show has existed. No one else can say that

(05:19):
that has ever been pitching for the Dodgers in the
last couple decades. So Kershaw will be back, isn't that right?

Speaker 2 (05:28):
He's done it longer than we've been on the air.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
I think. So how long has Kershaw been pitching for the.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Two thousand and eight? Oh damn, yeah, No, we're too old, dude.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
We are old ass. Well, can't we say he was
in like how many years was he hit the minors? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:45):
He was maybe in the system.

Speaker 3 (05:47):
Well, we talked about him, Matt, we talked about him
in the leagues.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Yeah, for sure. I mean, I think because I think
he spent what two years in the miners?

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Kershaw did his debut before or after we started US?
After that is how old we are. Two thousand and
eight was his first US.

Speaker 6 (06:06):
May twenty or two thousand and eight. You guys started
in January twenty oh seven.

Speaker 3 (06:12):
So one year we are old. I mean, that's an
honest mistake. I mean, no, it is, it is. I was.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
I wish I would have thought of, like, who would
have been the longest tenured player that you know, preceded us,
that like was able to you know, if Lebron had
been a Laker his entire career. Obviously he was ahead
of us by two years. He came in four. Yeah,
Kershaw eight.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
So Lebron in basketball has been playing pro basketball longer
than the Petroson Money Show has been on the air.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
Yep, I think that's our only guy.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Damn. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
Let's see two thousand and five NBA Draft. Let's see
if there's anybody left from the five NBA draft. Uh no, oh,
Chris Paul. Chris Paul was still playing this last year.
So there you go. There's another one. Chris Paul began playing.

Speaker 3 (07:12):
I remember Chris Paul was playing when we first got started.
I do remember that.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
That's it though, he's the only guy left from the
five draft. Geez, I know, right.

Speaker 6 (07:23):
You guys are starting in two thousand and seven.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
Oh yeah, Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
Good call, because I called his games in college. Although
I feel in O four no three and four.

Speaker 2 (07:41):

sports dot com Zench Sushi Fast Fresh Easy, Matt, Can
I tell you something please? You know, the other day,
I don't know what it was, maybe ten days ago,
I my hands slipped in yoga and I balked my head,
you know, not from like five feet up, you know,
from like six inches up or two inches, but it

(08:48):
kind of jammed my neck right okay, And at first, I,
you know, it didn't bother me too much, but I
slept weird a couple nights. So I've been having some
headaches and neck problems, uh where I can't do to
go to yoga, but I've been taking advil and icing
it down.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
The last It's just pain, not your foggy. And it
wasn't like you banked your your head and you got
all woozy or.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
Anything not in the time, No, and I didn't, you know,
and I've I have banked my head on a few occasions.
Freaking tree. Uh yeah, that was that was the last time.
And uh so I balked my head. This was maybe
about ten four twelve days ago, and uh, my neck
is stiff, and I've been having some headaches. It feels like,
you know a couple of times when I played football

(09:30):
when I balked my head and I jammed my neck
a little bit. I'm a little older, so it bothers
me a little bit more. Uh. I talked to Ronnie
right before we got on air here and Ronnie's like, hey,
how are you? And I was like, ah, you know,
my head still hurts, and Ronnie's like, damn it, go
to the doctor. And I was I was like yeah,

(09:53):
and and very and then I was like, you know,
and I appreciate Ronnie's concern, but you know, I'm a
little bit of a hypochondriac after spending you know, six
months in the hospital almost losing my foot so many
years ago. And uh, and I said, yeah, you know, okay,
and he goes, uh, you know what head injuries are,
like people hit their head and then three weeks later

(10:14):
they keel over.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
He planted that seed for you.

Speaker 3 (10:18):
So now I have a brain bleed and I could
die at any moment.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
So you don't go to sleep, Just stay awake and
you'll be I.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Mean it's been I haven't slept, Matt in fourteen days.
You know, Uh, just blowing rails. I've dealt I've dealt
with concussions all the time. I try not to deal
with them anymore as an adult that doesn't play football anymore.
But you know, if you just hear this, you know,

(10:48):
and I stopped talking.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
I'll know that the time.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
Ronnie. Yeah, Ronnie. Uh. And it's like perhaps run. It's like,
now I don't know what to do, Matt, because it's like,
you know, my wife's out of town. I have all
these you know, lists of places I have to take
the kids from birthday parties to baseball games and this
and that, and now it's like, you know, do they

(11:13):
have a cat scan at the urgent care that misdiagnosed
me with shingles on top of the hill or something like?
Where can I go? What should I do? Well?

Speaker 2 (11:22):
I mean, you know what My solution is.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
Whiskey.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
You just take whiskey well, and that tends to saw.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
It goes without saying, Matt, I.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
Think that's how you get it all the bounds. You know,
I've had this glass of whiskey, and now I feel better.
Everything is in its right place.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
But now, you know, now I'm worried about dying, like right.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Now from a six inch fall. But you got a
crick neck, you don't have a concussion, Like you're not
puking all over yourself and you're not you know, you
don't have to like grab the handrail after you hit
the second step on your way out of the rub
and tug, you know.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
And if I did, it's not anymore right, so I think,
and you know, with the whiskey drink. You never really
are sure if it's the whiskyer that can catch you.

Speaker 2 (12:05):
Which is nice because it allows you to just kind
of suspend that like I could be anything. But it's
probably the whiskey. So now I don't know, you know, well,
you know, you know how I like the uh, the
alternative medicines. So you know I would probably put something
under my tongue that dissolves from the earth cafe and

(12:26):
go see a chiropractor. It's probably the way I would have.

Speaker 3 (12:29):
I did let a guy come up from one of
the Crunchy Groove and coffee shops and pedro and pull
on my neck very violently once many many years ago.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
And how'd that go? Pretty well?

Speaker 3 (12:40):
Right?

Speaker 2 (12:41):
These are are kind of people.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
So you're saying, if I can't get an appointment with
Sweet James neurologists, right, because Ronnie remembers, I hope when
I got hit by that tree, Remember when I was
attacked by do Petros. I mean, but as I recall, though,
you ran into the tree. Wow, right, I mean, well,
like a branch fell down and hit you on the head.

(13:02):
Well what happened was, you know the roots. I stepped
on the root and it raised me up into the
brand those Richard dangerous. Well, I mean, you know.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
It raised me up, and you were moving at a
decent pace.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
I was striding out at Asa trying to get to
my son's uh baseball game, and I was coming around
the corner and I balked my head. And then that night,
because it was like the COVID high school thing, I
had to go call a football game at Shamanad and
I remember, you know, feeling like my head kind of hurts,

(13:42):
and but I didn't bar. I didn't bar for anything
like that. But I'm sure I was concussed in that
moment as well. But now, I mean in three weeks.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Oh, like you said, you're taking advill right, well, yeah,
probably pinching earth dud, yes.

Speaker 6 (14:00):
Tim, I just asked chat GBT what you should do?

Speaker 3 (14:03):
I put in.

Speaker 6 (14:04):
I slipped and fell doing yoga, hit my head six
inces away. Now have a headache for five days. Chat
GBT said, I'm sorry to hear that headaches after a fall,
even from a small distance, can definitely be concerning. A
fall like that, even if it seems minor, could lead
to serious issues like a concussion or other issues. It's
important to keep an eye on any other symptoms. Dizziness not, uh.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
Blursion, Let's go through them one by one. Dizziness yes, no, well.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
I'm always dizzy sometimes.

Speaker 2 (14:34):
Are you nauseous?

Speaker 3 (14:35):
No?

Speaker 6 (14:36):
Blurry vision yeah, confusion.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Wait, blurry vision like just recently or in general.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
I don't really know. When I had the shingles misdiagnosed,
they said that, uh, you know, you have sensitivity to light,
and I was like, ah, and ever since then I
felt that way. But that was before the fall.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Okay, so that's good.

Speaker 6 (15:01):
Chat GBT says have you been able to rest and
hydrate or apply any ice to the area.

Speaker 3 (15:06):
Of the head. Sure? Okay.

Speaker 6 (15:09):
If the headache has lasted this long, it might be
worth seeing a healthcare professional to rule out anything more serious.
How are you feeling otherwise? Question mark?

Speaker 3 (15:19):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
Are you making regular duties.

Speaker 3 (15:25):
Like my radio show?

Speaker 4 (15:27):
Like?

Speaker 3 (15:28):
No, like driving the kids to school?

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Are you making poop?

Speaker 3 (15:30):
That's not in the chat?

Speaker 6 (15:31):
GPT matt It says, have you tried anything to relieve
the pain, like over the counter pain relievers, cold compresses,
or a quiet dark room to rest in.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
Yes, I like a good cold compress. That's a good
move there.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
I mean after I hit my head into that tree.
I was I had headaches for like two months, and
I remember going sweet James sent me to the doctor.
Then I did get a cat scan and all of that,
and they were like, yeah, you have head trauma, but
it's really old. They were like, did you used to

(16:10):
do anything where you hit your head a lot? Let
me think, And I was like trying to figure it out.

Speaker 6 (16:21):
So I just typed, in, is Petro's going to die
because of persistent headaches from a fall? It sounds like
you're really worried, and understandably so, especially if the headaches
have been persistent.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
All right, stop with Chad. I don't want to talk
to him anymore.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Chat Chatt GPT.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
I don't know who he thinks he is and why
everybody thinks he knows everything. I don't even we're not
even interested in motocross.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
What aren't you on like a fancy yoga mat that's
supposed to lessen the impact.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
Like a fancy yoga mat, like a yoga mat?

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Yeah, Like don't they make like the real nice ones
that have like the cushion.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
I think it was more of an issue of my
neck being jammed right, because my head doesn't hurt in
the front where I bonked it like it did when
I hit my thing. The back of my head hurts, Yeah,
like a chnkle sprain or a yeah, like a shoulder.
Your head hurts, well, yeah, it's part of my hat.

(17:20):
The back of my head.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Still his head.

Speaker 3 (17:25):
But I have like i'd never think, ever ever consider
letting anybody touch me like a massage. Don't you ef
and touch me? And uh and I have considered going
to get a massage. Well yeah, let somebody touch my neck.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
Tim Robbins Jacob's ladder style. You know your guardian angels.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
Oh, I don't think that's cool at all. I mean,
I got Ronnie saying I'm gonna keel over. Literally he
said the words keel over. Like, okay, I have a
great show.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Here's what I got for a pinch nerve in the
neck rest and avoid aggravating movements.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
Well, yeah, that's what happens. I go back. It was fine,
but I go back to yoga every day and I aggravate.

Speaker 2 (18:12):
Okay, So there we go. This is working ice in
heat therapy. ICE first forty eight hours were well past that.
Switch to heat after two to three days also past that.

Speaker 3 (18:20):
I like to ice after yoga if it's a little sore.

Speaker 2 (18:23):
Non steroid anti inflammatories, ibuprofen, which you've been doing. Here
you go stretches and exercises. Chin tucks, sit up right,
pull your chin straight back like a double chin, and
a hold a lot of that seconds.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
Well, I just had that anyway, and then I, uh,
I do a lot of that in yoga. Okay. I
was like walking. I was walking into yoga today and
my sister's like, you're turtling. Pull your head back. I
was like, my head hurts, shut.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Up, stop turtling. Turtling in your pants too. Next side
bends side to side, ear to ear, ear to shoulder.
Ten to twenty seconds. Neck rotation, scapular retractions pull your
shoulder blades back and down. Hold for five seconds. Can
you do the scapular retractions?

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (19:12):
Now, it says when here we go, when to see
a doctor if the pain lasts more than a few days,
or worsens numbness, tingling, or weakness in your arms or hands.

Speaker 3 (19:23):
My hands always tingle from my shoulder injuries in football.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
Well, pain is severe or limits your daily function. And see,
you thought I was just using sophomore humor. You experience
loss of bladder or bowel control. There's a reason why
I asked you that. Have you pooped your pants?

Speaker 3 (19:49):
No?

Speaker 2 (19:50):
Okay? At home tips, use the support of pillow, don't
sleep on your stomach, keep screens and here's one at
eye level to avoid next string, and stay hydrated. All right,

(20:10):
A lot better than you could keel over. You need
to get to the hospital immediately.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
I do appreciate that. Yeah, you know, I uh, you
could keel over and then it's like three two ninety out.
You know, it's like, you know, I don't know Matt.
I don't know where'd he go.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
He's getting the gene Agman treatment.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
I'm never answering that, Hey, how you doing? Honestly? Ever again, ever,
I'm gonna keep it to myself.

Speaker 6 (20:43):
Well, chat Gibt just said, how is Petro's feeling? Otherwise,
if you're talking about someone you care about like Petro's,
the best course of action is to get them to
be checked by a health provider soon.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
But last time he did that, they gave him the
shingles and.

Speaker 3 (20:57):
It was a misdiagnosis. And my wife SuDS down. Who's
gonna pick up my kids? Oh?

Speaker 2 (21:03):
I mean Fletcher can drive, now can he? He's twelve exactly,
kids should be figuring out how to man a car
by now. He's a big kid. His feet can reach
the pedals. What are you doing this?

Speaker 3 (21:12):
Old man?

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Should have him in a parking lot navigating the roads
these days.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
Like if I went to the doctor every time I
got a headache when I hit my head, I mean
I would have never played football for God's sakes, Like
every moment was a head injury.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
I think that's how it's supposed to happen. Actually, I
think that's what supposed to think. That's why it was
supposed to go. What do you mean, after all the
head injuries are like, hey, you need to stop this.
I think that's kind of the way.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
It's what are you laughing about? That's not funny.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
It's just kind of what you just said, like, Hey,
I had gone, I wouldn't have been able to play football. Yeah,
that's kind of the thuught behind it.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
The way great sports talk has began today has been
me reminiscing to the time you guys tried the ear
wax can on air.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
That was a good one. That was a real good one. Look,
we're problem solvers. We're met of action.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
You know.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
We don't just come on here and bitch and moan
about our lives problems. We bitch and moan and then
we have results where results oriented. So Petros is gonna
do the double chin ear to ear scapular rotation.

Speaker 3 (22:26):
I've you, profen, I've been doing that, but not as consistently,
you know, like maybe once or twice a day.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
You got one of those old man heat pads, you.

Speaker 3 (22:35):
Know, ever since Ronnie said it was gonna keel over.
I feel better.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
Now, definite of those red super thick water bottles that
you put the hot water and then we used to
sleep on.

Speaker 3 (22:45):
Oh, the big bladder. Look at that, the old school
bladder hot water bottle that you see in like Tom
and Jerry.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
Exactly. You gotta get one of those and an ace
bandage and just wrap your face so just like your mouth,
the tip of your nose and your eyes are showing.
I say we go old timey. I want a gentleman
in a suit and a fedora with a medicine bag

(23:13):
and a stethoscope around his neck, lulling up in a
Studa baker knocking on your door with a with a
bladder and some ace bandages, like the Nick. Just like
the Nick. Well, he's just gonna cut you open and
give you some more.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
Fe You know. I have neck problems all the time.
If I sleep weird and stuff, and they become headaches,
you know, and it makes it hard to Yeah, but
now this is a whole horse of a different color.
I don't know. I don't know if I can continue, Matt,
I don't even know what's coming up next. I'm confused.

Speaker 7 (23:44):
The top store today.

Speaker 3 (23:56):
Hello, everybody, welcome back. It's the Peterson Money Show on
m FI se LA Sports. We are your home of
the Dodgers Freeway Series tonight, Dodgers Versus Angels. Everybody very excited.
You should be excited. To six o'clock Morongo Casino, Dodgers
on Deck. We're gonna talk to David Vasse in our

(24:16):
final hour, but right now it's time for the top
story of the day, Top story of this day.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
Well, we'll dig into this deeper with David Vassa at
five thirty pm, and I'm sure it'll be a topic
of conversation on Dodger Talk following the contest against the Angels.
They're making it sound hard, but it's not. Not in
the least in my opinion, I Song Kim and Dalton
Rushing are here to stay. Austin Barnes has already been
dfa'd and next up will be Chris Taylor. He is

(24:48):
not coming back after this season. He won a World
Series in twenty twenty he earned Wow, Matt, what to
heart me?

Speaker 3 (24:57):
You're just writing off Chris Taylor forever.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
He got his four year, sixty million dollar extension in
twenty twenty two. You know something that David Bessay regularly
cites as a bit of financial mismanagement because he just
had one crazy hot playoff run in twenty twenty one.
He hit three point fifty, he had four homers, he
had twelve rbi and since that moment when the ink dried,
he ain't done nothing. And he has got a twelve

(25:23):
million dollar club option with a four million dollar buyout
that will be declined. He'll take the four mill He'll
get his sixty million, and like we said, for Austin Barnes,
eleven years in the majors as a backup, you know,
Austin made close to eighteen million bucks, hung on for
over a decade. That's a hell of a run. It's
a great accomplishment. Same for Taylor. Dodgers don't owe him

(25:47):
anything more than that they got him out of Seattle.
He was there for two seasons, languishing on the bench.
Only played eighty four games combined in those two years.
Hit two forty seventy strikeouts in two hundred and thirty
at b that's thirty three percent of the time against
just seventeen walks, zero home runs, ten ribbies. Like a
fringe player that could have been sent down Instead, the

(26:10):
Dodgers rescue him. They trade for him in twenty sixteen.
Doesn't do much as a call up there thirteen strikeouts
in fifty eight at bats, hits two oh seven, but
gets his opportunity in spring training and makes the team.
And he comes to life and CT three our friend,
double digit homers between fifty and eighty rbi. He gets

(26:31):
that big extension. Congratulations, well done. You and your family
are set up to be square for the rest of
your life if you never work another day again.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
You sound like you're selling Chris Taylor a time shit.

Speaker 2 (26:47):
I am his time share is in Hawaii, where he
makes his off season home. I hope he invested his money. Well,
you know, you park it, maybe in rental properties or
in some sort of knew any kind of thing where
you get a solid payout couple hundred grand if you
wander grand a year for that sort of capital, like Barnes.
No reason to feel bad about that, to get sentimental,

(27:11):
because ta Oscar and Tommy Edmund are coming back. It
is upon us be it has arrived. And with Hernandez
and Edmund ready to get back in that dugout out
on the field back in the batter's box, two spots
need to open up, and I can all but guarantee
that Chris Taylor will be one of them, and the

(27:33):
other sadly, much to your father's chagrin, well unquestionably be
James Outman.

Speaker 3 (27:45):
Yeah. Sorry, so I'm the last segment. Ronnie, our engineer
for production, tells me, I'm gonna die. And now you're
getting rid of my father's favorite player, the guy that
keeps my father going.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
Yes. Prior to last night's solo home run in a
two for four effort with a walk, he was one
for seventeen since his call up, he was hitting zero
fifty nine.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
Getting good pitches. You got to give it a pitch
to hit.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Yeah, what is it a pitch to hit? Yeah, my
Pete tweet, Dodgers scored nineteen runs. Way to go out Man,
You're a part of that. He Hey, you know what?

Speaker 3 (28:23):
Hey? What?

Speaker 7 (28:24):
What?

Speaker 3 (28:24):
Have you ever hit a home run like Tarzan and
gone him?

Speaker 2 (28:28):
I've never been asked to. I've never had that opportunity.
Who knows what could happen if I were given it.

Speaker 3 (28:33):
That's a good.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Point right now. James Outman has one more hit in
the Bigs than Dalton Rushing this season, who played his
first ever game last night, two for four, a walk,
scored three times. He's here to stay. And as Dave
told us and will likely tell us again at five
point thirty, they liked the competition. He and Will Smith

(28:55):
have been battling for starts, for at bats and this
is not a baut thing. Again, Will Smith one hundred
and sixty million dollars, congratulations, that's all guaranteed. Your family
and generations to come are set financially. Uh Smith has
faded in years past. It's something that has become a
regular theme when we talked to DV that he needs

(29:17):
more rest that Austin Barnes did not do him any
favors by not being able to get out there more
than once or twice every two to two and a
half weeks. You give Will four of seven and Dalton
Rushing gets three of seven. Last year. After a straw
look at last year for Will Smith, strong start in
March April, hitting nearly three point fifty in the first

(29:38):
two months, gradually declined to twelve two three, one ninety
four in August, one forty three in the playoffs. Same
thing in twenty twenty three. He hit one eighty seven
in September and twenty twenty two he hit one eighty
eight in the four game loss to the Padres in
the Division Series. And it feels like we're always talking
about him getting worn down because he's catching too much.

(29:58):
Will needs his rest. Russians here to Rushing is here
to give it to and he's going to be getting
more starts if he performs. I am certain of that
because Will Smith is hitting the hell out of the ball,
so you want to get him his hit bats. He's
hitting three twenty four, he's got his twenty one RBIs,
twenty three walks or second only to Otan. He's twenty
nine and it's in seven fewer games. He's playing great,

(30:19):
he's hitting the ball great. But again, try something different, man,
Instead of one hundred and forty games, how about one
hundred and ten, you know, and sixty for Dalton Rushing.
Not a bad formula to see if you can help
keep the guy fresh and make sense of that ten
year extension you gave to someone who routinely faded down
the stretch and was entering his age twenty nine year

(30:41):
taking him to age thirty nine. Not a good formula
there for a guy that had already started fading in
his late twenty So this could be a perfect remedy
for that. And just like I mean, you said it,
your father's favorite player, right, James Outman. He captivated us
upon his arrival his production The Tarzan Bill.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
He was in the Rookie of the Year voting.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
Right, it was wonderful, just like Will Smith, just like
Matt Baty. We love the kids. There's something about a
player who gets his first opportunity and makes something of it.
It's just different than someone were already familiar with who
was wearing a different uniform. The sheer joy on Haisan
Kim on the base paths, the smile last night when

(31:27):
he was knocked in on that Otani homer, pure elation
as he's waiting for his hero to cross the plate.

Speaker 3 (31:32):
There.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
That's infectious, it's fun. It's what fans love more than
anything else, someone that they feel is theirs. Kim just
turned twenty six, Dalton Rushing just turned twenty four, and
were it not for Rushing's five hundred average and is
now four at bats in his first game yesterday, I
saw Kim's got the highest number on the team. He's

(31:53):
hitting four twenty nine in his twenty eight at bats.
He has got as many RBI as strike first home
run on Wednesday night, and, as Dylan Hernandez penned in
Today's La Times, in his first thirty games of the season,
Shohe Otani managed to knock in ten runs thirty games,

(32:14):
one in every three because of how bad the bottom
of the order had been since Kim was called up.
In his twelve games with Otani.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
It has made a difference.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
Eighteen ribis nearly double in just one third of the
at bats and games. Kim is the player he has
knocked in most, save himself. With those fifteen home runs. Now,
Shohy is still the draw. There's no question about that.
And what a performance you put on last night. Freddie
is the National League Player of the Month and of

(32:43):
course authored one of the two or three greatest moments
in Dodger history in last year's Game one of the
World Series. Mookie Batts is still a top fifteen player
in the game. They're no brainers, but it's what you
surround them with that makes this team special. Tommy Edmund
last year, Andrew Friedman comes on our show and he prophesizes, well,

(33:04):
he doesn't prophesize. He shares with us that Edmund was
the number two target behind only Otani last offseason before
he ever tooking it bad, and the Dodger uniformity prophesized
how special he would be in what was he an
LCSMVP and as bigger reason the Dodgers won the World
Series as any player on this roster, Tiascar Hernandez bring
an actual emotion to a group that was full of

(33:26):
flatliners Max Munsey, Will Smith, Chris Taylor, professionals that looked
like they were being held hostage. Instead of making a
king's ransom playing a kid's game out there, Hernandez changed that.
That's why all the Dodger fans immediately responded and what
did we hear more than anything in the off season
this year, We want that sunflower shower.

Speaker 3 (33:45):
That's all anybody cared about was his resigning. They didn't
even care about Walker Buehler, who saved them in the
World Series. They didn't.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
It was all about her because of that vibe. And
it's the same vibe that we're already hearing with Kim's.
He's the buzzy ballplayer. It's it's who everyone is talking about,
just like ti Oscar did last year with his energy
when he's been out. It's Kim that replaced it, that
that component of joy in the dugout. Hey, why y'all

(34:15):
pissy When this guy's here bouncing around, loving every moment
of what's going on. You just kind of check your
pea meter and you adjust. And I think Kim's done that.
You know, we saw it last night with Dalton rushing.
He gets that first hit. They panned to the crowd.
There's the dad and the sister jumping around. Maybe it
was his girlfriend, I don't know, freaking out. It's it's
a and the Kim, I think is part of this too.

(34:38):
It's a reminder of how hard this is, how hard
this particular game is and being successful, how the odds
truly are stacked against you, and when you do make it,
and when you do have success, when you're young and
you're new, I think it's you can't help it, like,
holy crap, this is so hard and I'm doing it,

(34:59):
and it's the tea and the high fives and it
is incredible. And I think it's what helps make the
most expensive roster ever bought. You know, Otani after six
years in Anna time, Bat's after an MVP in Boston,
Freeman after an MVP in Atlanta, the Blake Snell, two
Cy Youngs, one in Tampa, another in San Diego, Yamamoto,

(35:19):
two Japanese League Cy Youngs, Like that's that's great, But
those and those guys are awesome, but it's not the same.
It's when you see these young dudes that you don't
know whether or not they're gonna make it. It's like
a roll of the dice, and when it works, it
just feels different and it really gets you going. And
that's why I know it may sound a little insensitive.

(35:41):
They're going anywhere. Man, it's gonna be the old man
Taylor that ends up having to wear it and how
they make him wear it, I don't know, but after
they did that with Barnes.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
I just wish you didn't take so much joy in it.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
I don't take joy in it.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
I could hear it. I could hear it in your voice.
There's no joy.

Speaker 2 (35:58):
It's just reality. I do get joy from Rushing. And
that was a good mustache. It looked terrible in the
video that the Dodgers posted earlier in the day of
his arrival, but yesterday in the batter's box it looked
like a catcher's mustache. You know, there's fireman mustache and
there's a baseball catcher's mustache. And Dalon Rushing is able
to sport a catcher's mustache. And I congratulate him on

(36:19):
him on that, because I don't think I could grow
something that prodigious, even at my advanced age.

Speaker 3 (36:25):
We've been trying to get rid of Chris Taylor for years.

Speaker 2 (36:27):
Yeah, we kind of have. It's too bad. It's a
very nice.

Speaker 3 (36:30):
Guy, understated. Certain guys, you're rooting for Chris Taylor to
beat fired like to over.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
I am not rooting for christ I'm simply saying the
people that are sweating Rushing or Kim getting sent down.
Need not worry that you cannot keep Chris Taylor in
that dugout amongst those twenty five other players. With the
way he has performed over the last four years and
the way that Hasan Kim has performed over his last

(37:03):
whatever fifteen thirteen games. It just it makes no sense.

Speaker 3 (37:08):
We'll see how it plays out. We will talk to
David Massey about it in the five o'clock hour. Four
o'clock hour, we got the F one report. We'll even
have lessons learned, word numbers, saw a secret texta sol
rodeo around them coming up neck.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
Going till six o'clock. That will be Dodgers on deck,
Dodgers Angels coming up just after seven, and the reminder
to live to Zen She's Sweet Life. That'll be a
game next week. Make sure you're registered by Sunday at
a participating Ralph's Grocery store at the Zen She Sushi
location the counter they're in any participatings ralph Grocery, I'll

(37:55):
you do a scan a QR code to enter, so
make sure you hit that up. Do it by Sunday,
and we'll see you at the game next week.

Speaker 3 (38:02):
Maybe maybe, yeah, perhaps if it is a game. Even
man's true. All right, some Textosa Son text us a
fine brought to you by your so called Toyota dealers.
We make it easy. Some reaction Matt to the things
that have been said. Problem is if Will Smith isn't catching,

(38:26):
he's not in the lineup because Otadi is the DH.
Yeah that's right. Why don't they get rid of crappy,
fat ass Max Muncie, who's zero for sixty.

Speaker 2 (38:39):
Well he did have that big donor yesterday.

Speaker 3 (38:41):
I'm just reading text Matt yep Hey, Petros. I hope
Chris Taylor gets a walk off hit tonight and then
gets released a lah Jason Hayward. That did happen. But
good luck Money can't hit no home run. Well, I
don't know. He's never been asked. Yeah, I've never had

(39:02):
the opportunity. That's a great point, Matt. We were talking
about like really uh sad remotes. You know this says
could have been worse for you and money. I once
saw the cannons and a chevron in North Hills.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
I don't yeah, if the cannons, remember they had the
chevron in North Hills, Remember they had the the ding Den.
I want to say it was like a little like
accident repair kind of parking lot to be in the
show from once and Steve Hartman came after that remote.
Remember we were in Hooters in Anahei.

Speaker 3 (39:42):
I mean I thought we had to make up for
the fact that they didn't end up doing it though.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
Is that what it was? We had to mention it
a bunch of time? Ah, that's right, that's what it was.
He was supposed to do it from the Dingan.

Speaker 3 (39:52):
They could have been in a chevron, you know, long
before as Yeah at two this came at two oh
four today, two o four pm, and it says time
check at two o four. Fred said an hour ago,
but we all know it's more like forty nine minutes.
In the NHL. Uh, you have Genny Macklin, Malkin and

(40:16):
uh and Alexander Ovechkin remaining active players from the four
draft good cally they have also outlasted us.

Speaker 2 (40:26):
Matt good call, Yes, Ovetkin for sure, the Russian beautiful.

Speaker 3 (40:31):
Hey Pete, Is it just a coincidence that the commercial
that always plays before your show starts is the Sarah
Spain podcast commercial since you two pull Smoking Fools are
her biggest bands. Uh, there is no coincidence there. It
is a sponsored element for the Petrosen Money Show, and

(40:52):
it is because Sarah Spain thinks we're so cool. So yeah,
it's uh yeah yeah. Does anybody else have any kates?
Do you have any insight into this? Sarah Spain? It
has to play.

Speaker 2 (41:08):
Right there, Good Game with Sarah Spain every single day.

Speaker 3 (41:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (41:12):
It's a nationwide thing that airs all across the country
for iHeart, so it's not just for us. Well, there's
specific one for different parts of the country.

Speaker 7 (41:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (41:22):
Jonas Knox just sent me a photo of the zen
Ch Sushi counter, probably in the Thousand Oaks area. Okay,
so your little shout out to Zench Sushi when that
lived a sweet life with the Petrosen Money Show and
Zench Sushi coming up next week. But I have no

(41:43):
insight on Good Game with Sarah Spain or anything like that.
Are you serious? Your neck hurts from keeping your massive
cabasa upright. Also, I heard that the city is suing
you for damaging that tree. The statute of limitations on
that tree passed a long time ago. Bub, Okay, back

(42:04):
up off of me and sit your cup down. Why
don't they put hey song Kim in the lead spot.
Now that's already been shown that Otani's RBIs go up.

Speaker 2 (42:18):
Yeah, it seems like Otani's doing pretty well on that
opening slot.

Speaker 3 (42:21):
Though, what are you with, the host of Dodger Talk,
No quick with your answers.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
We went through that with the Mookie Bets thing, remember
when he got demoted, and it's like, yeah, it just
feels like Otani's better there.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
Hey, Pete, I sit here listen to you talk about
the Baby Oil Kingpin trial. I can't help but think
to the Diddler and his song bad Boy for Life
on repeat, because he ain't going nowhere. I have not
checked in today with the Diddy trial.

Speaker 2 (42:54):
I think I did see that his attorneys were questioning
is her name Cassie Cassie Ventura, Yeah, about her threatening
somebody for saying that he saw her on a sex
tape something along those lines.

Speaker 3 (43:11):
Yeah. And that was a guy, some guy who gotten
to shootout with the cops in Miami, and when he
got arrested in Miami, he was saying all this stuff
about puff Daddy, and everybody's like, this guy sounds like
an idiot, you know he doesn't. He's like, no, no, no,
I've been involved in this, this, this, and this with
puff Daddy, and I've been with Cassie and all this
and next thing, you know, Matt, she admits that they

(43:34):
all knew each other. So I mean, as the FEDS
case unfolds and as the world turns, we shall see
how it goes. But I am on top of that,
and I am on top of the poison cap mushroom trial.
I'll have updates on Monday. Hopefully we will return with

(43:55):
your word number song of the Day in the very
next segment. It's the one and only Petros and Money
Show on a frog Man Friday. There's so many great dodgers.
Amount just wants to put them on a raft and
just push them out to sea.

Speaker 2 (44:10):
That's just not true. There can only be twenty six,
and when you got two coming back, you can't have
twenty eight.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
Roster Manipulator, Matt Smith, poppet Master, master Master. How does
it feel, Matt to move humans around like chess pieces?

Speaker 2 (44:36):
They're just objects to me. I have no soul.

Speaker 3 (44:39):
You're like Zeus and Class of the Titans is moving
them dudes around. We'll be right back with your word
number Song of the Day.
