00:00Dodgers making some changes to their squad because they've got this plethora of pitching and Justin Robleski, who, you know,
00:09certainly has done an admirable job for the Dodgers, got that hurt.
00:13And I think he's healthy and I think he's coming back, but the Dodgers are just going to take it
00:18easy with him.
00:19And it kind of feels like, you know, a little bit, Tom, like a few years ago, they had a
00:23pitcher who had such a great start, made the all-star team and then sort of faded.
00:28And then they, you know, put him in the bullpen. He's not pitching anymore.
00:31I'm sure you remember his name was Tony Gonsolin. He kind of like came out of nowhere and he was
00:36great.
00:36And this feels like exactly the same situation as to what's going on with Justin Robleski.
00:40They're like, thank you very much for carrying us through April, May, June, into July.
00:46Now you're a bullpen guy because we've got too many guys, right? Is there anything more than that?
00:50No, it's just a bounty of riches, really. Like it's a good problem. The rich get richer.
00:54Like you had a great pitcher. He was awesome. But it's like, oh, hang on.
00:58We got Snell and now Glassdown coming back, you know, apparently on Tuesday or Wednesday of this upcoming week.
01:03It's like, OK, your time, you pay your dues, but you're going to the bullpen.
01:08And it's a good problem to have from a real life baseball perspective.
01:11And if they could use him in a piggyback situation, as you alluded to before, with Otani to be an
01:17opener.
01:17It's like, OK, Otani is an opener for two innings.
01:19You can get Robleski out there who can certainly give you the length.
01:22They know that. They can get three innings at him.
01:24All of a sudden, they're five or six innings into the game.
01:26You turn it over to the real bullpen and you wrap it all up from there.
