Tarik Skubal Joins Strong Dodgers Rotation: MLB Impacts

Let's get it over here to the Dodgers and what they did. You know, we were talking with Bob Nightingale yesterday and Scooble's a Dodger. I mean, you look at that rotation, Yamamoto, Ohtani. I mean, Glasnow also. I mean, man, the rich just keep getting richer. Your takeaway here with Scooble going to the Dodgers? Look, it's a monumental move for them. And what I've always said about the Dodgers, and I'll say the same thing, they're playing within the rules that they are given, we need to stop complaining about that point of view. Of course, I have a much bigger view on baseball itself, but from their point of view, they're only dealing with the cards that they're dealt, Dan. So they should be doubling down and tripling down and hitting on 16, you know, like they should be doing these things. That's number one. Number two, Dan, it does not guarantee a World Series. We saw that last year. They came very close in a couple of different plays to losing the World Series to the Toronto Blue Jays. What it guarantees, Dan, for the Dodgers is, of course, I'm getting to the playoffs, probably getting through the first round pretty easily, but it does not guarantee a ring. So that's what I would say about that. Their pitching staff, very formidable. They can now wait on Will Smith till the end of the year, bring him back whenever. They can wait on Blake Snell. Hey Blake, just get back in September. We'll slide you into SP4 and the rotation in the NLDS or something like that. I know a lot of people are upset. I'm usually pragmatic about this sort of stuff, but I want to remind folks that Tampa Bay, Cleveland, Boston, you don't know in a game seven situation when it's going to come down to the last play of the game. And at that point, it doesn't matter who the Dodgers have. It matters. Can a guy make a play last year? The Dodgers did to win it.
