Full Transcript for Mookie Betts Plan, Dodgers 2B Need, Latest on Skubal Sweepstakes

They're still the Dodgers. They're still going to be the team to be in the national league. 00:05:31 Speaker 1: They don't feel the need to do this blow up, restructure everything within the organization. 00:05:36 Speaker 2: They like their group. 00:05:38 Speaker 1: They understand they need to get a little younger. 00:05:40 Speaker 2: If there's a shorter season, maybe that works in their favor. 00:05:43 Speaker 1: But right now it's to quote Brandon Gomes yesterday, business as usual, which Quint is exactly the only thing he was going to say. Yeah. 00:05:52 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:05:52 Speaker 3: Um, I love Showtime LA in the chat saying, Katie, stop ruining our dreams. And it's not you. That's what the team is telling you to go out there and tell all of us. But yeah. 00:06:01 Speaker 2: That's journalism. That's how journalism works. 00:06:04 Speaker 3: Exactly. 00:06:04 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:06:05 Speaker 3: In the pocket directly of Mark Walter is Katie Wu. That's how she could afford that sweet, sweet blazer. 00:06:12 Speaker 2: That's how I got scooped on that interview. 00:06:14 Speaker 3: If you guys are listening on the podcast side, make sure you go and watch the YouTube just so you can see that sweet blazer. But back to the Mookie part. Yeah, I think I don't think anybody was reading my desire to add like a Gunnar Henderson to the team as an indictment on Mookie Betts as a shortstop, because I think he's been fantastic. And I think we've seen, there's still something in the bat at times. You'd love to see consistency and all that. But if there is a spot that you can look to add to the team for the long haul, it could be shortstop because Mookie is on the wrong side of his, you know, early to mid thirties here. Um, the original plan was for him to play second base. The problem was Gavin locks. Couldn't throw a goddamn baseball across the infield. So he had to, you know, just figure out that's what it was. Go figure it out. But, but anyways, I'm, I, before I decided to start looking at the idea of, could they explore a shortstop? We knew they needed a second baseman because, you know, uh, as you point out in your column, um, the team is just a lot better with Tommy Edmund as the new Kike, as the new, uh, Chris Taylor, somebody that you can kick around to just about any position and to have somebody who can pick up the lion's share at second base makes a lot of sense. So are there any names out there that make some sense? And you guys watching in the chat as well, participate interested in, in names that you guys have showtime mentions, uh, Gleyber Torres as a name. Is this somebody, free agent Gleyber Torres, that could make sense amongst the kind of thin-to-be market? 00:07:53 Speaker 2: Should I ruin Showtime's David Moore? No, I'm kidding. 00:07:56 Speaker 1: We've talked about this before. This is not the best free agent class in history that we've seen. There aren't a lot of truly impactful options outside of Scooble. And across, we're

seeing that now as we have these multiple conversations throughout the GM meetings on just like what to do about this free agent class. 00:08:13 Speaker 2: Now, there are some names available. 00:08:15 Speaker 1: Gleyber Torres is one of those. Your right-handed hitter can play second. Mauricio Dubon is kind of that super utility guy. Gold Glover, to me, like... is the prototype of what the dodgers are looking for but i feel like he might be valued higher than a bench role utility role given how weak this class is uh jonathan india is available but honestly quinn i feel like if we're just looking at the names and speculating what they could do they could do a trade they could trade here they have a ton of outfield prospect def they still have one of the best farm systems they have a log jam in positions with multiple categories They could also trade and try to find, you know, the Dodgers pro scouting department is so good at this, finding pieces that teams maybe don't really realize their full value or they don't think are maximizing what they could do with their potential and acquiring it that way. I don't think we're necessarily looking at just free agency as a way to get this done. 00:09:12 Speaker 3: Yeah, I admittedly haven't done a lot of my educating myself on who the potential like second base options are. who could be traded. I'm sure Gunnar Henderson wouldn't mind playing second base. 00:09:24 Speaker 2: Oh my God. 00:09:25 Speaker 3: We digress on that one. You mentioned Dubon, and this is somebody that we had talked about on my All Dodgers show a couple nights ago. And listen, on paper, fine, perfectly fine season. And understanding that somebody like Mauricio Dubon would fill the void of a Miguel Rojas, would fill the void of a Quique Hernandez, somebody who likely... Will not be back with this team. Maybe won't be back with this team. I don't know. I mean, there's also a lot of love there between this organization, Kike, Andrew Friedman, so on and so forth. But you look at Dubois. you look at what kind of roles he could fill for this team. It could make a lot of sense as somebody who could get the lion's share of the playing time at second base. But we were talking just before going live here, it seems like the market might be pretty hot on Dubon though, huh? 00:10:18 Speaker 2: I think so. 00:10:19 Speaker 1: And again, that's just a testament to where we are with the free agent class and the perceived talent available. The Dodgers are looking... One thing they have to do, and one thing that they know this, regardless of how long the 2027 season is, they have to rest their guys more consistently. 00:10:36 Speaker 2: They have to do a better job at resting guys. 00:10:38 Speaker 1: Now, that's hard to do because the Dodgers have a core that routinely says, I don't need the rest. But we saw at the end of the 2026 season that a couple extra rest days for. 00:10:46 Speaker 2: This 30 and up club would be helpful. 00:10:49 Speaker 1: So

if you get a super utility middle infielder can play short and second, it allows Mookie Betts to get rest when needed. You can move Tommy Edmond across the diamond and he can kind of serve to alleviate other guys, get them the rest days, can play third for Max, can go to the corner outfield spots. The right-handed bat compliments the handedness of Ray Freeman, Max Muncy. Also, Dodgers believe Alex Freeland is going to be a key kind of depth piece in their active roster, their major league roster next year too. So they can use this as kind of like a jigsaw puzzle to put all these pieces together and see what this looks like without having to do a major trade. 00:11:28 Speaker 2: Again, if something materializes, we don't really know what the trade market looks like. 00:11:32 Speaker 1: That's kind of what these meetings are for, to help establish that. 00:11:35 Speaker 2: It makes a lot of sense. 00:11:36 Speaker 1: We have to remember that whenever this lockout ends, it's most likely going to be a crazy sprint ramp up, just like it was. 00:11:43 Speaker 2: Before the 2022 season. 00:11:44 Speaker 1: There's not going to be a lot of time to figure out, okay, who's now suddenly available for trades to other teams. So being able to do it this way and kind of seen as a stop gap depth piece to move guys around the diamond, get rest, I think makes the most sense for this club, even if it isn't the sexiest answer of all time. 00:12:00 Speaker 2: Yeah. 00:12:00 Speaker 1: Yeah. 00:12:01 Speaker 3: Um, It'll be a boring one, as we know. Another one, another bit from, it's funny, I have big news out of GM meetings on the screen. I'm surprised I haven't been called on it because it's just, it's like mediocre news out of, this is what we have at the moment. All right, guys. 00:12:15 Speaker 2: That's what we have. I wish we had more. I'm bored. 00:12:19 Speaker 3: Yeah. What, your first day last year was Edwin Diaz signing with the team. And then all of a sudden there was a, a Kyle Tucker signing and all this kind of stuff. This is not going to be the same kind of exciting kind of off season. Plus we have the fun of a lockout, which takes away everything that is potentially, you know, roster driven, but there is, um, a Tay Oscar Hernandez bit of news, non-news quick hitter here. Uh, you, you had in your column and I'll go ahead and pop it back on the screen as, as part of the, and more of this, uh, hashtag SEO and character count limits and all that kind of stuff. Um, The expectation is that the Dodgers obviously would love to have Josue DiPaola on the opening day roster next year, potentially usurp Teoscar Hernandez as the opening day left fielder next year, but that would mean that Teo is still around, and that seems like a likelihood because they're going to need that insurance. What can you tell us about the status of Teoscar Hernandez and trade rumors and all that kind of stuff? 00:13:24 Speaker 1: Insurance is the perfect way to describe this scenario

here. It'd be different, again, if the Dodgers were able to oversee and have their hands on DePaulo over the offseason. I think it was a great opportunity for him, not just for his own personal development, but to come to the big leagues and see the level. 00:13:40 Speaker 2: Of preparation that it takes to be an everyday big leaguer. 00:13:44 Speaker 1: I think DePaulo has always been, and from what I've heard throughout the organization, a hard worker. 00:13:49 Speaker 2: No one's questioning his work ethic. 00:13:51 Speaker 1: But now he's seen how the pros prepare every day and he can go into this offseason with a different appreciation for it and now understand, OK, if I want to be back with this roster next year, this is what I have to do. And the Dodgers are very confident he's going to do that. They just can't see him do that. So they're going to come in the spring training and be like, OK, what does he look like? That will give them some pause as to if they move to Oscar. It's a logical thing to do if you want to infuse youth back into this roster. Tao has one year remaining on his deal, 17.5 million off the top of my head, has a club option for 28. I think the market out here is going to be much easier to trade him compared to this time last year because of the... And again, with the free agency looking like what it does, especially with right-handed bats, he might have more value this year on the trade market. So I don't think the Dodgers are necessarily going in and saying, okay, no, we're not trading him. I think they're going to be more hesitant to because it's going to feel like more of a gamble because of the insurance they feel like they need for DePaul. 00:14:54 Speaker 2: And now they could, in a perfect world, have both and Platoon. It will just. 00:15:00 Speaker 1: And the Dodgers' eyes can't take away from the development of DePaulo. There is an argument to be made that maybe taking two days off a week for him will allow him to rest and recover and go out and continue to work on the defense at the big league level. Those work days are just as important as playing in the actual games. So that's a possibility that remains on the table. They could still platoon. What that means for Alex Call, not sure. We have non-tender deadlines coming up. Maybe we'll have some sort of clarity on how they view him next week. But right now, I don't think it has to be one or the other for Tao or DePaula. If they can find a platoon that makes sense, they're still going to explore the market. 00:15:39 Speaker 2: But this isn't a done deal. 00:15:41 Speaker 1: They have to trade him because they do need some insurance in case DePaula comes back and is nowhere near. He doesn't even have to be a major league average he just has to be serviceable he doesn't have to be an all-star out there he just has to go out there and not be hurt be a liability for himself her others then i think they can do the platoon. 00:15:58 Speaker 3: Yeah don't actively cost the team runs with your defense or if you are make sure that the uh you know what you bring in on offense is significantly offsetting uh what you're doing on defense and we've talked a lot about this we don't need to spend too much time here on this but You know, Fro is still young. He's still working. He's still learning. He has time to get better in the outfield. I have faith. I liked a lot of what Brandon and Andrew said at the post-mortem a couple weeks ago about the strides, and this was mainly Andrew, about the strides he's made over the last year. And obviously, we're not going to see that at the big league level because going from single A to double A and then to the big leagues and all that kind of stuff, giving him an actual offseason... and giving him the motivation of, like, I want to be there, that's going to be huge. Because he understands, like, if I'm good at this, I get to be here. I get to eat good at the big league level. And with Teo, the only thing I'll say about that is there are worse insurance options to have laying around. It was a bad year last year. Still, you know, decent when healthy. But we know somewhere that 2024 Teoscar Hernandez is in there, and we can all pray that he comes back, that he can make his way back. All right, we're going to take a bit of a palate cleanse here before we get into actual rumors part of this, and I'm going to do that by telling you guys, check out our store, DodgerTerritoryShop.com. Get some cool new swag just in time for the holiday season. I mean, probably do better than a division champ's shirt, but Yamamoto, that's cool. Show him, Tani. 00:17:36 Speaker 2: That shirt's cute. That was nice. 00:17:39 Speaker 3: I like that one. The Q-Zip? Give me the Q-Zip. I might need to lose a few hundred dozen pounds, but we'll figure that one out. Check it out. Scan that QR code that was on the screen. The link is in the description. All of that kind of stuff. Now, rumor has it. 00:18:00 Speaker 3: Rumor has it that Tarek Skubal is looking for a job this winter. The Dodgers want him. The Mets want him. The Padres are now said to be in the mix on this. And this is me saying it. This is not highly respected journalist Catherine Wu saying this. Listen, Scott Boris and John Heyman are in the same location, which usually leads to hashtag mystery team week. What's coming a little bit early, a little bit earlier, a few weeks earlier than it usually would at the winter meetings. But all of that aside, my crap talking aside, what can you tell us about the latest with Scooble, kind of what's going down on his market and what we've heard today from Scott Boris? 00:18:45 Speaker 2: Yeah, so sorry, I've got to... Is my editor back? Looking at... No, I can't. I know. I have to make sure they think I'm working. 00:18:55 Speaker 1: Now, with Scooble, we know there are four teams that plan to meet with him for reporting, including the Athletic, Across the Board, New York Post as well. Big surprise, the Mets.

Big surprise, the Dodgers. The Padres are interesting because of the new ownership situation. And the Blue Jays, apparently, are going to meet with Scooble as well. We're seeing three of the same... That was cool. We're seeing three of the same... suitors for Kyle Tucker, the big spenders. So we know that the Mets and the Blue Jays had no problem ramping up the high long years or the high AAV for Kyle Tucker. Could we see that same kind of market materialized for Scooble? Nobody really knows because of the CBA. 00:19:35 Speaker 2: So annoying. 00:19:36 Speaker 1: However, with Scooble right now, we know that, and this shouldn't come as a surprise because this is how the Dodgers have consistently operated over the last couple off seasons. They're not willing to ramp up the maximum seven, eight, nine-year deals. Andrew Friedman has historically tried to stray away from those with pitchers. in general because of the injury risk. But this is the same kind of mentality they took in with Kyle Tucker. Shorter term, High AAV, they're still in a position to ramp up that AAV to sweeten that deal if it is a shorter one. What we don't know is if Scooble is going to be willing to take that or if he wants to take that. I still feel like the Mets are going to be in a position to offer that lucrative seven, eight, nine year deal. And Scott Boris is Scott Boris. He's going to tell his clients to take the best possible deal. 00:20:19 Speaker 2: They want a record breaker, they could get one. 00:20:22 Speaker 1: I would be surprised if a Scooble's contract comes out and it's not a record setter in some fashion. He is by far the best player available in this free agent class, arguably the best pitcher in baseball. So all this complicates things. But for the Dodgers, it's relatively simple. Short term, high AAV, they'll meet with him. Scooble liked to be in LA. We saw how much of a fit he was in this clubhouse. Now it's just wait and see so it's a little bit of a non-update we've speculated on the show that people are now talking about and we're hearing it from other camps that this is what the dodgers are pitching makes more sense i would have been shocked if they were willing to offer anything longer than that just because it's historically what they strayed away from and andrew friedman has pledged for a long time now at least since i've been on the beat and before it he wants to prolong that competitive window and doing the the kyle tucker kind of deal is their best way to ensure that long window. 00:21:16 Speaker 3: So if it's feeling, I know like all the prediction markets and everything there, people are going back and forth on this Scooble market, but it's feeling a lot more and more like the Dodgers are in the same camp as they were. Like you're saying there, they are, they seem to be in the same camp that they were with Kyle Tucker last year. If, if Scooble falls to them on a deal, that would still be like, I don't know if it's life changing money to him, but it's very, very insanely good money. If he doesn't come to them, they are, probably willing to allow him to walk but does that be a fair way of kind of assessing it in a more sherry end way. 00:21:52 Speaker 1: I think so and again we don't know what this market's going to look like i i'm under the impression and while scott boris did go outright and say this i still believe he's going to sign school before december 1st he alluded to it boris did but didn't outright say it And we'll see over the next three weeks what this market is going to look like and what is actually a true tell. 00:22:13 Speaker 2: All these teams could have their plans. It's Scooble's choice. 00:22:16 Speaker 1: If he doesn't want to take a shorter deal, that probably takes the Dodgers out of it. 00:22:19 Speaker 2: Now, but if he wants to, that. 00:22:21 Speaker 1: Complicates it for every other of the teams that are reportedly in it. The San Diego Padres, to me, are the biggest question mark and also the most interesting because this is our first chance to see how dedicated, how aggressive is that new ownership group. Again, from Ken Rosenthal, Dennis Flynn at The Athletic, Padres expecting to meet with Scooble, and we'll find out just how serious these new owners are. And I would expect it to be a very busy week for Scooble before December 1st, but right now we're in baseball fans' favorite mode. 00:22:51 Speaker 2: Wait and see. 00:22:52 Speaker 3: Wait and see, but you only got a couple more weeks of wait and see before wait and do absolutely nothing for quite some time. It'll be interesting, though, to see the Padres. I mean, if he's not going to the Dodgers, I'd rather he go to the Mets because the Mets are bad and they're also not in the NOS. But it'd be a good opportunity for new Padres ownership to actually show that they got something left in the old savings account after purchasing the team. Other rumor stuff, non-Skubel related, we saw today. Speaking of the Mets, according to The Athletic's Will Salmon, they have expressed interest in old pal, longtime Dodger lefty reliever Alex Vecchia. Honestly, it feels like a move that would make a lot of sense for the Mets. They kind of need some bullpen help. Having somebody coming from the Dodgers, a veteran leader from that bullpen dog core would make a ton of sense for the Mets who have struggled as an organization. But what do we know about this particular headline? 00:23:54 Speaker 1: So what I've been hearing across the meetings the last couple days is that the left-handed reliever market is projected to move much quicker than the rest of the market because I think it's pretty much the only area of position with a significant talent. And we're seeing it right now with Bessia. I mean, he has a ton of interest from at least half the league. Dodgers, of course, being one of them. The Mets, as Will Salmon reported. A couple other teams out there that we know of. or that we don't know of, but just talking and

hearing around, oh, hey, we're, we're, they're seeing a lot of, of interest in Bessia. 00:24:25 Speaker 2: And it makes sense. He's been a stud. 00:24:26 Speaker 1: I think he's actually been one of the more underrated lefties in baseball over the last three years. 00:24:31 Speaker 2: And he's set to make a major payday. 00:24:33 Speaker 1: The Dodgers are in there, wait for it, wait in C mode, just because they're not one of the more aggressive teams or could not be one or aren't right now for Bessia. It's because they're just letting the market materialize. It's a lot of GM speak, it's a lot of agents speak. But when the Dodgers have an idea of what Bessia or really the left-handed relief market in general looks like, they'll act on it accordingly. 00:24:56 Speaker 2: That Bessia has so much significant. 00:24:58 Speaker 1: Interest right now is not surprising given the free agent class, given the year he's had, given how he's proven himself in multiple playoff situations, how vital. 00:25:08 Speaker 2: He's been to a bullpen group that's really looked up to him. This all makes sense. 00:25:14 Speaker 1: And I think the Dodgers will be back in on the Vessia market. It just depends on what the aggressive year is going to look like. You know, are they going to go two, three years? What is the contract deal? All of this is to say, yes, there's interest in Vessia. 00:25:28 Speaker 2: We knew there was going to be. 00:25:29 Speaker 1: I would project him to maybe go before December 1st, just given how high the interest is, but nothing for certain. 00:25:35 Speaker 3: Yeah. And we also know like if... I would imagine the Dodgers want him back. We talked about this, I believe, on Monday. I know I would strongly prefer him be back in the bullpen just because of a lot of the things you mentioned. He's been nails for this team. He's been one of the more trusted branches on Dave Roberts' trust tree. But if there's money out there, the Dodgers aren't willing to go up to whatever market other teams are sending his way or willing to offer. They have options. We don't know if Justin Robleski is going to move back into the starting rotation or if they're going to look at him as a bullpen arm, Jack Dreyer can take some steps forward. So if it is, obviously they still have Tanner Scott. So if it is one of those situations where he walks, it would suck. But the Dodgers, shockingly, Katie, are still going to be good as seems to be the overarching theme today. of today's show. 00:26:28 Speaker 1: Um i guess that's the silver lining right hey guess what they're still gonna be good and again i i would hate a short season any in any capacity i think it'd be the worst possible thing for the game might actually really benefit the dodgers yeah i. 00:26:41 Speaker 3: Mean every time we have a short season they they be winning they be out here winning i'm just. 00:26:45 Speaker 2: Saying put another star next to that. 00:26:50 Speaker 3: The final bit of the something, we

haven't talked too much about this fellow coming out of Japan, Teruaki Sato. This comes from Mark Feinsand of MLB.com. Dodgers, amongst some of the teams, said they have interest in the Japanese slugger. Obviously, this is a dude who hits with a ton of pop. I think he had like 35-some-odd homers last year. Anyways, he's got a ton of pop. Yankees, Mets, Dodgers, Phillies, Padres, amongst the teams, believed to have interest in Sato. A couple of things. Have you heard anything on the Sato-san market? And two, could this be somebody, I mean, we've heard kind of mixed reviews, mostly negative reviews on the defense at third base, but it could be somebody that maybe the Dodgers kicked the tire on trying to have him play second base or something like that. What can you tell us about Sato? 00:27:38 Speaker 1: The Dodgers are as tapped into the Japanese market as any team, obviously. 00:27:42 Speaker 2: Probably more. 00:27:43 Speaker 1: And they do a really good job of scouting over there. They've invested well in all of the international scouting in particular. This was even before Shohei. So, yeah, that they have interest, that makes sense. Whether or not he's a fit, that's less clear to me, starting with the fact that he is left-handed. Dodgers trying to balance out their handedness, that kind of... If we're going to nitpick the roster last year, was a bit of an issue at some points, given the health of players. 00:28:06 Speaker 3: And. 00:28:08 Speaker 1: I don't really see him as a fit at third. So they'll have interest. But here's what Andrew Friedman and the Dodgers, their philosophy is get good talent, get the best talent available, and we'll figure out where to play them when we have them. And you think about how these free agent acquisitions have gone, how the trades have gone. 00:28:26 Speaker 2: That pretty much checks out. So even though it might not be a fit on. 00:28:28 Speaker 1: Paper, if it's talent that they think can't be replaced or that they want, they will find a way to make it work. 00:28:33 Speaker 2: It's what they do. 00:28:36 Speaker 1: It's an interesting one to note, but I think right now it's just interest checking in on the market. A lot of that this time of year makes for very boring content for us, Clint. 00:28:45 Speaker 2: So sorry. 00:28:46 Speaker 3: I don't know. I feel like this is a fun show. It's good. I mean, maybe heading out of town to, you know, drink for four days straight, but that's neither here nor there. Before we sign off, I do want to get some of the chats. We have folks hanging out with us here on this poorly announced Wednesday edition of the show. Interesting idea here. Going back to like the kind of overarching second base conversation. This from Ella Sheva, $ 2 super chat. Thank you very much. saying, I heard Cattell Marte is available. And I kind of look at Cattell, obviously fantastic ball player, statistically, comes with baggage. I look at Cattell, maybe not quite in the same lens of somebody

like a Jazz Chisholm, who I think was also mentioned in the chat as obviously second baseman, free agent. Ton of baggage with somebody like Jazz. Would that be somebody, you know, the Jazz market, would that be somebody that the Dodgers could explore one of those stop cap contracts on him? Or is there maybe just he would not fit the clubhouse? 00:29:51 Speaker 2: Obviously, you're not going to hold the clubhouse. 00:29:53 Speaker 1: I think Jazz is just going to get, Jazz is going to get more than, than what they're projecting, what the Dodgers are looking. 00:29:58 Speaker 2: I think so. 00:29:58 Speaker 1: Again, this class is not good. I had a couple conversations with agents. Just because someone is the top position in a market doesn't necessarily mean that they should get top position in market cash. But Jazz, I think, is going to get more than what the one, two-year deal the Dodgers. 00:30:16 Speaker 2: Are looking at. 00:30:18 Speaker 3: The bad thing for him. 00:30:18 Speaker 2: I mean, if Duvon is... Yeah. 00:30:20 Speaker 3: Yeah, what's funny is... the reason I think I mentioned, we brought up Dubon on my other show. The reason we brought up Mauricio Dubon is because he was the top available shortstop, like free agent shortstop. And it's like, this is, that is how shitty the market is that they have Mauricio Dubon listed as like a shortstop as opposed to utility guy. And he's very good and all that kind of stuff. Uh, to what about the, the could tell Marte thing? Um, obviously I'm leaning in on some of the baggage with it, but he's also been a good player and it could be, you know, very much time for a change of scenery. out of Arizona. 00:30:54 Speaker 1: I actually thought this comment was kind of set in, in jest. I don't think the D backs are going to make Marte available. And if he is, I don't imagine the Dodgers would be in on that at all. Um, the good news though, if that, you know, the very unlikely situation, desert diamonds, not that far away from Camelback ranch. 00:31:07 Speaker 2: So we got that going. 00:31:10 Speaker 3: We got that working for us. All right. Final one, this coming from, uh, our friend Richie, who, um, I saw him drop this comment. It wouldn't fit where we were having a conversation. Um, So he made sure it fit. 00:31:21 Speaker 2: What do you want, Richie? 00:31:23 Speaker 3: A $ 4. 99 super chat. It says, Big GM news. Katie crushed Clint's hopes and dreams. And then apparently you also went to my house, drank all my beer, ate all my Doritos. And, oh, yeah, the important one, slot machine update. How are we doing? 00:31:37 Speaker 1: Well, Richie, per usual, you're... off the wall, but kind of onto something. Cause right after the show ends, I am going to drink Fabian's neutrals. So shout out my beat partner. Um, and then I will have hopefully a good slot machine update. Yeah. 00:31:52 Speaker 2: Good vibes, good vibes. I'm feeling good about it. Last day in Vegas, go hard or go home. 00:31:56 Speaker 1: Um, so yeah, I'll let you know, Richie, if you see me on Monday and I'm like wearing rags and, you know, calling in from a parking lot, it did not go well, but we're going to help for the, we're going to help her better. 00:32:07 Speaker 3: Hope for the best. Hopefully she doesn't have to, uh, you know, hawk the blazer to, to pay for a flight back. 00:32:13 Speaker 2: The blazer is a vibe. 00:32:14 Speaker 1: The blazer is a vibe and it's also false advertising. 00:32:18 Speaker 2: Uh, but that's okay. You just gotta look the part. 00:32:21 Speaker 3: That's what we're going for here. Uh, fun little Wednesday edition of the show. Uh, don't get exploded out there. Don't get, uh, well do all the things that I would do. 00:32:29 Speaker 2: So I ride the coaster. I might be riding the coaster. 00:32:33 Speaker 3: I'm not hip to what the kids are into. 00:32:36 Speaker 2: Is that a thing? 00:32:37 Speaker 1: Yes, I'm actually riding a roller coaster. That's not code for anything else. 00:32:43 Speaker 3: Now it's a whole thing. I ruined it. Guys, subscribe to the channel for whatever that was. Whatever I ruined. 20,000 subscribers and then I'll just leave. I promise I'll leave. We're trying our best. We've been talking about this for a while. If you also want to become a member of the channel, it helps us out. And one of these days, we promise, we are going to have a members-only happy hour show again because, you know, we need a drink on camera. But anyways, we will see you again on Monday. 00:33:14 Speaker 2: Bye!
