On their Dodgers podcast, the guys dive deep into the $100 Million Panic Button, checking the analytics and testing the fan frustration behind Mookie Betts' offensive shifts and Kyle Tucker’s underwhelming swing metrics. Dylan breaks down why championship contract deferrals mean superstars are essentially playing for free, while Jack questions whether Tucker can ever regain his MVP-level caliber form.

    Randy Wolf On His Rare Advice To A Young Clayton Kershaw

    On this special edition of The Dodgers Post podcast, hosts Jack Harris and Dylan Hernandez sit down with former Dodgers and Phillies left-hander Randy Wolf. A true Los Angeles native and the workhorse of the memorable 2009 NL West championship team, Wolf pulls back the curtain on a wildly chaotic era in franchise history. Wolf takes us inside the clubhouse during the exact moment Manny Ramirez was handed his 50-game suspension, explains how a broke front office couldn't even afford to offer him arbitration after a 200-inning season, and describes the "rough" old Dodger Stadium facilities players used to endure. Plus, Wolf shares some incredible, never-before-heard stories about dealing with a brutally honest, young Zack Greinke, and the exact piece of advice he gave a 21-year-old Clayton Kershaw when team legends tried to alter his legendary delivery. Finally, a 16-year MLB veteran gives his candid take on today's modern pitching injury crisis and why the human body is reaching its absolute limit. 0:00 - Introduction: Welcoming LA Native Randy Wolf 4:10 - Playing for Both the Phillies and the Dodgers 6:10 - From "Broke" to Behemoth: The Dodgers' Financial Evolution 8:37 - Navigating the Chaos of the 2009 Dodgers Season 10:39 - The Day Manny Ramirez Got Suspended 12:59 - Zack Greinke Stories: Bluntness, World of Warcraft & Napoleon Dynamite 15:17 - Advice to a Young Clayton Kershaw: "Don't Learn From Freaks" 17:59 - Life After Retirement & Returning to the Ballpark 19:17 - Is Dylan Hernandez Actually a "Teddy Bear"? 20:16 - The Modern Pitching Crisis: Velocity vs. Human Limits 21:54 - Could Randy Wolf Have Been Shohei Ohtani?

    Ohtani Cy Young Race, Muncy Injury Update & Dodgers Bullpen Collapse

    Dodgers beat writers Jack Harris and Dylan Hernandez recap a grueling, late-inning 3-2 bullpen collapse against the Arizona Diamondbacks on pure, unadulterated exhaustion. The guys confront Tanner Scott's high-leverage stability late in games before diving into an unexpected, dark examination of online fan toxicity — anchored by a classic Dylan story about a high school classmate who ended up in criminal court after firing off drunken death threats to a major college basketball coach. The crew reviews the terrifying baseline collision between Max Muncy and Miguel Vargas, analyzing the split-second physics of "de-weighting" that saved the Dodgers from a catastrophic double injury. Finally, the show ignites into a fierce war over Shohei Ohtani's historic 0.74 ERA, whether a protected six-man rotation fundamentally disqualifies him from National League Cy Young consideration, and a total on-screen meltdown over historic post-Kenley Jansen saves trivia. 00:00 - Bullpen Meltdown: Is the Road to October Already Bleeding? 09:01 - Cold Call Death Threats: Unmasking the Anonymous UCLA Bruin Troll 12:33 - The Muncy Crash: The Frightening Physics of De-Weighting 15:47 - Ohtani's Cy Young Mission: Historic 0.74 ERA vs. Voter Groupthink 37:24 - Fortunes & Phoenix: 115-degree Pizza Debates & Historic Closer Meltdowns

    Roki Sasaki's 100 mph Fastball Recovery

The guys break down Shohei Ohtani’s stabilizing May performance, Kyle Tucker’s underwhelming $60M baseline slump, and an incredible inside look at Don Mattingly’s interim manager stint, including a deep dive into the vault regarding the time "Donnie Baseball" tried to physically fight Yasiel Puig in the clubhouse. Finally on our Dodgers podcast, the show goes entirely off the rails as Dylan attempts to solicit cash from the audience (and Yoshinobu Yamamoto) for Japanese fortune-telling, before the weekly prediction scoreboard leaves one host deep in the negative numbers.
