  • Love dodger talk

    I’ve been listening to dodger talk for about 8 years. Big fan of the show and love the catch up I get on the games when I’m not able to watch.

    I gave the show 5 stars but I have one qualm. That Shakey’s pizza commercial has GOTTA GO. It instantly pisses me off. It’s beyond obnoxious and I will never eat at Shakeys because I hate that commercial so much.

    Let’s threepeat

  • Lighten up Dave

    Really good info and insight you have ....but on more than one occasion every night you are condescending and rude. Yes this is a sports pod cast with input from want to be GM's and dudes who think they could've made it. That's the audience, deal with it, you want high value production and takes...go host somewhere else.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hunter Feduccia (10-6-26)
Q: Without giving away too much, is Yamamoto difficult for hitters to game plan against because he'll throw any pitch in any count?
Feduccia says hitters cannot know what pitch is coming in any count, which keeps them guessing and makes it difficult to adjust.
Hunter Feduccia (10-6-26)
Q: What's it been like to be his catcher, to be his servant, to see him do his thing?
Feduccia says working with Yamamoto has been fun, and his presence on the mound gives the team confidence that it will win.
Kiké Hernández Postgame (10-6-26)
Q: How proud are you of where Edwin Díaz started and where he's at?
Hernández says he takes pride in helping Díaz and encouraged him through his struggles by reminding him of his abilities. He says the team believed Díaz would be on the mound in a key World Series moment.
Kiké Hernández Postgame (10-6-26)
Q: Could you feel the energy in that dugout?
Hernández says the dugout was energized, and that hearing teammates celebrate in a quiet road stadium after a big hit was especially satisfying. He also credits Andy Pages, the pitching, the defense, and Freddie Freeman.
Dodger Talk- NLDS Game 3 (10-6-26)
Q: With Díaz in the ninth, how much of that was matchups first, just liking him in that spot and kind of what you see from him working out of that situation?
Roberts said he was willing to use Díaz in the ninth once the pitcher was throwing the way he was capable of. He weighed the options and trusted Díaz's experience in that situation as well as his current form.
