Brent Honeywell

But asking, "Is Robo still on the confidence cactus to eat some lower leverage innings in the CS? Are there even [laughs] any lower leverage innings at this point in the postseason?" No.

I mean, I, I would imagine, I guess, the lowest leverage innings would be something like we saw Brent Honeywell do a, a couple years ago.

If it's a laugher, which knock on desk [thud] we don't end up in a situation like that, but-

Yeah

We already saw Tyler Glasnow go short, and against a team like the Brewers or the Padres, you might need a little bit of length.

And maybe just somebody to eat it, like in a Brent Honeywell situation where something got out of hand by accident.

You need somebody to just take on that bulk and be able to go long distance.

And that's what Emmitt Sheehan can do.

The, the Blue Crew got a show tomorrow if they are made to three-peat or not.

Bring [laughs] Brent Honeywell." [laughs] Yeah, they need the good vibes of BP pitcher in Brent Honeywell.

Uh-

I will say, I don't necessarily agree that you have to be able to beat pitchers like Chris Sale because most teams, uh...

[laughs] You know why?

That's probably, like, the greatest outing of Brent Honeywell's life-

[laughs]

... is what Grant Taylor just did.

Um.

He, he can do the Brent Honeywell role.

He could just throw fastballs down the middle-

Yeah

Designate whoever that might be.

You know, it was, uh, Brent Honeywell for the Dodgers for a while, and it's like, "Listen, man.

We gave up five or six runs in the first couple innings.

They got their guy going on the mound.

But the Dodgers have options, and that's one thing that you... would like to see, especially even those, those guys may not be on the roster.

They can give the guys that are on the roster, a loss Brent Honeywell, the ability to kind of give them good practice games.

Cause that's going to be the biggest thing between when they start practicing tomorrow and then they begin play on Saturday, they need to play with some high intensity during these workouts.

That way they don't miss any time and that they can get ready for Saturday.

And so we saw in Game four of the 2024 World Series, the Dodgers punted.

They went to Brent Honeywell and said, "Hey, go suck for a while and get us through this game," so that they didn't have to use a real pitcher.

Um, the- that's the, uh, the Dodgers' approach, especially in the regular season, is, "Let's do the things that are best for this team long term." In the case of Tanner Scott, that was, "Hey, get back out there.

We trust you.
