BB's like can you talk about us now we got you and the Champs don't actually believe in running it back with the same roster Dodgers won on another offseason spending spree Dolan out almost 400 Millie for Lefty Blake Snell Believers Tanner Scott and Kirby Yates outfielders teoscar Hernandez and Michael conforto and they won the sweep Stakes for Japanese right-handed Phenom Roki Sasaki the rich just get richer how about the Yankees their owner house Stein brener said it's hard for teams to compete financially with the Dodgers and the Bronx bombers did get out bid for wodo
but they were active they signed left-hander Max freed infielder Paul goldmit and traded for outfielder Cody Bellinger closer Devin Williams and relever Fernando Cruz L according to ESPN bet surprise the Dodgers are plus 275 favorites to repeat as World Series champs this season after that look at at number two your Braves and the Yankees are tied with the second shortest odds followed by former Yankee Juan stto and the Mets at 10 to one and we got reporters on the scene getting ready do we see palm trees we need to see palm trees in February just
passin is in Tampa Alin Gonzalez is in Glendale and let's start with the defending champs a team that got even better this off season alen what are the Dodgers saying about the massive expectations facing this squad that they need to ignore them and mukie Betts let voice to that earlier today saying quote we need to we need to stop talking about being champions again we haven't even won game one and keep in mind it was 5 years ago that bet introduced himself to new Dodgers teammates by standing up in the clubhouse right here in this
facility and basically telling them that they need to do a better job of mastering the details in February if they wanted to be champions in October and that is the mindset that the Dodgers are bringing into camp that it's mastering the boring day-to-day stuff that's going to ultimately make the difference which is why a lot of their players spent time today dismissing talk about Dynasty building and win records and instead preach the importance of not being complacent and look given that it is if it's fitting to consider who they added to that roster today it's
Clan krisha he was playing catch today he's agreed to terms on a new deal it's going to be finalized soon he more than anybody else has always exemplified shutting out outside noise focusing on what's directly in front of him which is what all of these Dodgers want to embody in this season of grand expectations as one of Kesha's longtime teammates Austin Barnes told me quote he still sets the tone for everything her by the way turns 37 next month and started just seven games last season H yeah so we did mention of course the Dodgers
getting better Yankees feel like they improved as well as we turn our attention now to Jeff passon and Jeff there were some complaints after the world series about the amount of trash talk from the Dodgers how are the Yankees using that as motivation for this season well they're using it l to fuel themselves because frankly what the Dodger said was true Joe Kelly went on his podcast and he said hey we understand that the Yankees defensively aren't quite as tight as we were base running their issues and we saw that manifest itself in the fifth
inning of game five of the World Series Aaron judge dropping a ball on center field Anthony Rizzo and Garrett Cole not covering first base and eventually the Dodgers winning the World Series Championship because of it now the Yankees are a different team this year Juan stto is gone they brought in Paul goldmit Cody B and of course Max freed and Devin Williams to bolster their pitching staff but at the end of the day Aaron Boon said hey they're the Champions they can say whatever they want right now but Boon did caution if the Yankees win
their first championship L since 2009 they're going to do so he hopes quote with class okay that would you say that that is his chief concern wow you are just so wrong L Duncan so that was a chief concern yes it was and you know what nandi sitting there with his grin on his face looking at Cooper Dee with his lovey eyes it's okay I get it you know what to the Victor go the spoils it's how it goes in sports guys not bitter he not thank you so much I didn't mean to hit you
with that dagger or that Arrow Head [Music]
