  1. I distinctly remember Roki thanking Ireton and the Dodgers organization when he came back. He also explained that watching his videos from the Chiba Lotte Marines days while in his hotel room helped him to click things into place. Is Dylan Hernandez truly taking one brief moment from Roki's various interviews to extrapolate that he wasn't grateful to the organization? Did Roki's team say no to an interview request? Now that I've listened to him, it seems Hernandez is holding a grudge of some sort.

  2. Phillips and Kiki are just waste of a roster spot. Both aren’t good anymore. Kiki they brought back for sentimental reasons. He strikes out too much. Phillips didn’t have a good season. He’s coming back from arm problem. And I definitely wouldn’t have extended Max Muncy. You should’ve went after the guy from Houston Peredes

  3. Who does this guy think he is sasaki doesn't have to bow to him he's full of crap. He says he is letting stuff go like who gives a crap what Dylan thinks. Stick to being a writer jerk!

  4. Max could've gotten way more money than that. Yeah, his age is up there,.and he's getting longer slumps every year now too. BUT!!…. there are no good basemans next year in free agency! Max was the biggest name. Bohm, Kim and Jazz. So Max could've gotten $22M IF he had a par year. $10.5 if he has a terrible year this year; n with this lineup, Max couldn't have a bad year if he tried.🎉

  5. how is Dylan Hernandez's opinions helpful or positive in helping Sasaki or the Dodgers grow and improve? He's just trying to find takes on things that will be different so he can get more attention. I'm not impressed. He comes across authoritative, but he's just opining like everyone else. Take the downer/look for the bad side. It separates him from the others. Good branding. I'm not a fan.
