with Kik Hernandez back on the Dodgers for 2025 what does it mean for these three Dodgers well the outcome might not look good also another former Yankee now a cub but hurt over supposed La trash talking after the world serious win against New York I want to get to that story Kenley jansson back in La what I'll get to that story and Andrew Freedman on the Dodgers digest quote of the day on show being a two-way player and the advantages the doers have on that it is Dodgers digest Brad J let's get started subscribe what
are you doing look whoa whoa whoa stop if you're watching for the first time or even other second third or whatever you haven't subscribed come on not doing this for my health man I'm doing it for you and the doers so subscribe uh hit like turn on the notifications okay uh Hey born and raised in La work to the Dodgers come on man uh with KK back of the dod for 2025 what does it mean for these three Dodgers and it doesn't look good man I wish I could paint it a little better than this
this uh story is out of Dodger nation dmac and his crew okay so what's it saying here's what we need to hone down on right here this is what the Dodgers know before spring standing even starts the active position players roster will include Will Smith Austin bars show hey Freddy Freeman mookie bets Max Muny Kik and tasar Hernandez Michael conforto Tommy Edmond uh Miggy row leaving two spots open for Jong Kim James outman Chris Taylor and Andy pz to battle for who is going to get that those two spots and you got I mean that's
just a tough one man one two three four but you got it I think my gut instinct jeson Kim is going to be on the team uh no matter what I think he takes one of those spots now who takes the other spots is it James outman does he show up and blow up at spring training does ct3 find his rhythm and he do good at spring training POS say I think he's the guy would I'd like to see him make it because he is a player and I'd like to see that man on team
so what's your thoughts I mean look the Dodgers have an injured list no matter what so to to make it on the 40 man if you go to the 40 man roster right now you'll see kik's name on that 40-man roster already uh but you even see Kershaw's name on there and that deal hasn't been worked out right so they have the injured list to be able to use no matter what going in spring training to keep players on but with those remaining spots with two spots and you're fighting Jon Kim outman Taylor and pz
uh that's a tough call I mean I feel like heson Kim like I said is the guy for that the other spot I mean you just really feel for James outman you really want to see that guy uh you know do his thing what he's capable of and I feel like the minute we trade James Altman somewhere he's going to just explode and have uh such a great season so I'd like to see him be able to work for it but pasaz too as well ct3 I don't know big contract still with one more year
I think left on it but there you go on on that one so okay another story about another butt hurt Yankee over trash talking from the Dodgers is this even a story anymore it's seems like someone always had to just add their little bit okay get your little bit in there John birdie okay so John birdie all right let's just so John birdie is a former Yankee okay and he's he got left off the World Series roster and he calls out the Dodgers for trash talking okay after the win okay and here's here's what birdie
said I mean he says more than this but this is all I have on this uh I don't know if you if you've ever heard a World Series winning team talk as badly as they did about the World Series losing team birdie said it felt like we were being disrespected to the point of we didn't even belong in the World Series and I mean hey message to Yankees fans you you kind of didn't I mean you're you're lucky the Padres were an American League team because you would have be nowhere near the World Series and
John birdie before you go and start blah blah blah blah think about the what your teammates had said well think about what Verdugo had said calling a the 2020 a Mickey Mouse World Series win come on the trash talking that comes from your team inspires the trash talking that comes from our team and this that's how it works so if you're really going to worry why don't you talk to all your players oh wait you're not on the anymore you're on the Cubs okay well maybe when you are with the Cubs you can talk to
your players and say hey let's not be disrespectful we don't want anyone's feelings hurt and you're just opening yourself up dude now you're in the National League and you popped off you made it public and you face the Dodgers a lot so good luck with that John birdie I don't think that was a good idea you weren't even on the roster uh now you're a cubby you're going to have to play the Dodgers a lot more so good luck with that why would you do that man literally why would you do that there is no
absolute reason to do that especially when you're going to a national league team because that just gives the Dodgers know what you said that's you know oh his butt hurt okay stop okay stop stop having players on your team talk trash and not be able to take it if you're going to dish it out you got to be able to take it okay my pop said that long time ago all right Kenley Jansen back in La well not really back in Anaheim more like right uh Los Angeles Angels reportedly signed former Dodger Red Sox closer
Kenley Janson he's done he's back in La okay now now that's not the whole story here let's look at how much money Kenley Jansen is getting paid all right uh this is out of the New York Post Joel Sherman janson's contract with the angels will be worth 10 million over one season seriously seriously seriously is he worth 10 million over I mean look hey I am not a Kenley Johnson hater except when he was giving up the long ball a bunch of times but look for the for the main part I like Kenley Johnson but
would you put $10 million into him for one year I I don't I don't see that look at his career earnings now will climb to 161.5 million uh in 2025 with that tell me you over one season I mean comment below if you think that Kenley jansson is absolutely worth 10 million for one year look like I said he's a great human being he's a great guy but he's getting older and you got to feel like this got to be one of his last contracts or unless he does another one year next year but 10
million really like I would take Kik over that any day and let him pitch all right yeah enough of that all right uh time for your Dodgers digest quotes of the day and this one goes to Mr Andrew fredman uh what does he have to say about Shi being a two-way player there's advantages and there's big advantages right here are the advantages check it out uh since shohi does not count as one of the 13 pitchers allowed on a 26-man active roster now keep that in mind so you're allowed 13 pitchers on the 26-man active
roster he Dodgers can carry an extra lever and an advantage that no no other team can match because no other team has that two-way player Bullpen flexibility is crucial for maintaining the pitching staff health and do you see that see that little site that's GNA come into play that's gonna come into play during the season trust me on that one and trust me on this one another Dodgers digest in the books subscribe like turn on the notifications okay and uh let's grow this thing double digits by the time the season starts I'm Brad J Dodgers
