Press conference live from Dodger Stadium Mason and Ireland 710 ESPN te you’re going to sign with how many teams are in consideration then and what is your process for making a decision are you calling people are you making a pro conson list and ultimately what was it
That sort of just tipped the scales at the end that got you Here for um like I said earlier I don’t really want to talk about other teams at this stage so I want to kind of shy away from that but as far as the reason that um why I chose the team like I I said earlier there’s a lot of reasons but one
Thing that really stand out in my head is when I had the meeting with the Dodgers the ownership group um they said um when they look back at the last 10 years even though they made the playoffs every single year One World Series Wing they consider that a failure and when I
Heard that and I knew that they were all about winning and that’s exactly how I feel so that’s one of the things that stood out that’s show Otani at Dodgers Stadium interesting he says the reason he chose the Dodgers one of the reasons was that when he talked to the management team
They talked about about being in the playoffs for the last decade and considering every year that they didn’t win the World Series to be a failure it kind of was wasn’t it so he’s and he’s he’s right so and now that he’s back and he’s here it’s going to be they
Should be back in there every year from now hey you guys let me ask you like a semantics question right some of those questions the reporters would ask him and shoh would answer without The Interpreter and then other times The Interpreter would jump in and explain it so maybe he
Understands English yeah that’s what my thought is too like Fernando always did interviews in Spanish even though I was told by several people he absolutely understood English he just didn’t want to say the wrong thing yeah so do you think shi’s the same way you think shohi actually speaks English but he he
Doesn’t want to say the wrong thing I think he may understand English not necessarily speak English right or not well enough to have the full pet press conference and respond to the questions in clear English yes um by the way this is just I find this to be outrageous
Absolutely outrageous did you see Jim Hill got the second question instead of the first question who got the first one Jack Harris of the times wow how did that happen how did Jack Harris get the first question and Jim Hill got the second question people are pissed about
That by the way that’s it’s honestly one of the that’s lighting up like the Mason and Ireland Mafia right now people are like what where’s Jim Hill why didn’t Jim Hill get the first question who made that call do the Dodgers own the LA Times now too oh that’s possible no Jack
Harris by the way is a great Bas I think he biter he’s not Jim Hill no he’s not Jim Hill John can you look into this I you know that the fact that Jim Hill often gets the first question is kind of a courtesy that other reporters extend
To him yeah yes I I’m maybe is Jack Harris young I honestly don’t I don’t remember what he looked like if he’s young or not I’m not sure maybe he just doesn’t know yeah maybe he doesn’t know the rules okay the important question has been answered okay his dog’s name oh
Here we go his dog’s name well there’s it’s two but I’m going to go with the other one did somebody did what decoy his dog’s name is decoy decoy decoy he also said a different word but I don’t really want to say it well because it
Sounds like a bad word it’s I mean I’ll say it just be ready way dickle Bean what’s what’s wrong with saying that I it’s just a weird name it’s a weird name dick dick Bean dickle Bean dickle Bean or I like dickle Bean dickle Bean for a boy and Dick boy for a
Girl dickle boy dickle Bean dickle Bean d i c k l e b e e n or decoy was it our decoy it our guys that asked it or did somebody else J J uh Michael dwarte from NBC has it and there’s a couple people have it on Twitter now yeah and they’re
Saying decoy decoy oh decoy like he was going to go to Toronto but it was a decoy it’s very interesting all right uh coming up next we’ll pick up a little bit more of that again showy Otani at Dodger Stadium uh announcing uh being introduced to the media uh it is a

Dog is named decoene d e k o p i n which translates as decoy well gotcha that was uh Michael dwarte who said that wrote it dickle bean and I was just was it’s decoene decoene decoene which means decoy Japanese for decoy so Shani is being introduced over at Dodger Stadium
Right now and uh it is a huge day we’ve waited for this day and we’ve uh honestly dreamed about this day the idea that every night at Dodger Stadium we’re going to see the greatest baseball player of all time every night well think about this too every at the start of every Dodger
Game you’re G to see Mookie Betts Freddy Freeman and Shi Otani all bat in a row yeah I mean that’s just crazy yeah it is it’s amazing and maybe Randy Rosara if the reports today are true oh if they could happen yeah that’d be great I mean
Was coming I thought I have I believed that uh Yamamoto was going to be introduced at this PR P.S here’s Yamamoto at the end of his press conference sh Tony says we’re also bringing in Yamamoto uh press conference has ended they’re showing the uh Diamond vision board at Dodger Stadium uh and
There’s a picture of Otani and they keep flashing in uh Japanese uh letters too I’m sure welcoming him to Los Angeles what a circus it’s going to be what a what a really fun circus all summer long do you think any like Shi is weird out by the amount of dog questions
That he was getting about his dog’s name well he if he just would have given it up the first time then there wouldn’t have been any question although if he if you knew his dog was named decoy would you give that up would you have I mean it almost suggests that you’re doing
Something sneaky nefarious nefarious doesn’t it my dog’s name is decoy such an odd dog name uh yeah it’s it’s gonna be so much fun it’s going to be so much fun um and I think they’re going to be we’ll wait and see exactly what they’re going to happen if if
You’re a Dodger fan here are the things you need to know uh one they are working on a trade with the Tampa Rays and Tyler glass now is certainly a part of that he would be the focal point of that trade but they’re also talking about Manny
Margo who I just think is a banjo hitter uh and there’s some talk that Randy O Ros Arena who on his last Instagram post put up a picture of him sh Otani that he might be a possibility in this trade going out would be Ryan pepio and Johnny
Johnny DeLuca right who’s a minor league outfielder they’re also uh shopping around and Dylan CE is still a possibility uh as a uh as a trade Target with the white socks uh you’ve got let’s see who else uh Corbin Burns seems off the market Milwaukee what do you guys
Think about Lucas gelo he really struggled with the angels at the end of the year and I think he went to another team after Indians after IND he didn’t pitch great but he still throws 100 miles an hour and he’s young and he’s local yeah I
Mean he was really really bad down theet he was he was terrible down the stretch like he got he got DF by the an I don’t know if it was DFA I don’t think he didn’t get DFA DFA did he get traded from the Angels oh that’s right he got
Traded from the Angels the angels of all teams who were just tanking after they after they traded for him they traded him and was still bad to where he the Guardians uh yeah the Guardians you can’t make it on the angels I mean that’s kind of if you can’t make it
There you can’t make it in that rotation uh Lucas Tio last year just so we throw some actual facts in here uh Lucas G Alo last year th started uh a total of oh he was rough he was 8 and 15 with a 488 ER he did start 33 times but with
The white socks before things got bad he was six and six with the 379 ra and against the facts the fact that he is uh a local kid may make a difference too they’ve got to Cobble together a rotation I mean Yamamoto would be the big Target right go right in as the
Number one starter I think so yeah by the way I’m saying that having only seen him pitch on YouTube right what what be Bob Bobby Miller not Bobby Miller not you know emiten Gavin Stone um Bobby Miller could be it I think Bobby Miller probably would be it yeah
Bobby Miller could be it so Walker beer is not going to be ready for opening day doesn’t sound like it sounds like he’s not quite ready for opening day so if you’re looking at a let’s just project Yamamoto yeah let’s do that uh followed by Bobby Miller and then you’ve got a
Collection of younger guys that you could put together a rotation with but here’s the thing I don’t think given the fact that I’m 700 $ million in on sh Otani I’m not going to skimp on the pitching staff the whole point of him deferring all that money was to deliver
A rotation that can win right so they’re not messing around now no they’re going to go after Dylan CE they’re going to go after I mean obviously glas now is something that it looks like it’s going to get done eventually and and if they get Yamoto then you have the makings of
A rotation but they’re going to still have to rely on young guys at this point yeah all right hey Ireland I’ve got the mythical money standings here okay and we’re not together a whole bunch over the next uh week or so right we’re doing a couple of shows together but not not a
Whole bunch so I’ve got to make up ground okay you are at 353,000 I am at 265,000 all right so I’m up like 90 grand on you yes so give me $50,000 mythical dollars on the Rams minus 6 and a half ramsus 6 and a off Sunday at SOA

Radio it Balon grow stronger Super Cross talk are we ready for SED and C to join Mason in Ireland Super Cross talk begins Super Cross talk presented by Kors light Kors light made to chill it’s time for Super Cross Talk that was a very loud again I think that was a very distant far away love Bo okay there he is I think he’s there no the mic was off again there you go very small Market there we go San Diego of you to not have very San Diego uh so guys are at yova Tonight yesterday Blades of GL I gotta say Blades of Glory was a big Su success Cappy totally snowed us Cappy could be a professional skater but the beauty of it is when Cappy gets on ice and and I’m all stumbling around and Morales is trying to stay on his feet Cappy is
Doing the same he’s pretending he’s acting like oh I can’t skate I can’t skate all of a sudden he’s skating backwards he’s doing axles it was it was unbelievable Cappy you snowed us completely you were sandbagging that is not true really sandbagging that not true true about
It John listen you have been a great supporter of what I’m about to say everybody else has been a great doubter the fact is when you are a worldclass athlete oh boy God sometimes you just you’re just a natural at things exactly how much did you practice that’s
A great question probably in the course of my life maybe four times you skated four times in your whole life four five six you know moral how many last month Morales no no way now wait roller skating no listen I’m a great roller skater roller skater or roller blade roller skater but the
Principles are the same so once you get comfortable on the ice yeah DeMarco as a worldclass athlete you’re able to figure it out quickly you feel it you have muscle memory it was impressive what you were doing I thought it was very imp regardless definitely sandbagging regardless of whether you practiced or
You didn’t I thought it was a an outstanding skating Exposition exibition and I want to go across the street and have Cy on Ice I want that show to be there like the ice Cade Cappy on Ice that’d be awesome honestly mace you did a good job too the fact that nobody got
Hurt and we all stay that that is the amazing part Chris there were Zer scar were inju how scared were you Chris I was scared so my bit was I was going to immediately get on the ice and Cy was going to mount me but the ice was wet
So soaked so then I didn’t know what to do bitwise so I just held on for dear life mhm until CPP and came and res then yeah so I was I was scared mace listen so last night we went to the Kings game oh yeah how what Kings or Winnipeg who
Won uh Winnipeg won so Kings had a two nothing lead after the first period they blew it they gave up three goals in the second period they gave up one in the third and as far as I remember it was 42 so now I’m feeling really confident about myself after this skating thing
And I’m like you know what I I actually think I’m kind of good now you are you know do what so now at the Kings games at TV timeouts they have a group of probably like 20 kids they come out on the ice they’re all wearing skates and
They sweep they have shovels and they shovel all the chips ice into the boards I love this so Maz just like you with a national anthem yes I want to go to a Kings game and go out on the ice and scoop the ice during a TV time out think
You would excellent I you real you realize cap this is a change this is like kind of what the sign of the times they used to do that with like attractive women used to skate out there and clean the ice yeah and now that you’re telling me they do it with kids
Well I say kids I mean they weren’t kids John Cy just doesn’t know what he’s talking about it’s the same it’s attractive people cheerleaders guys girls is it coed Chris yeah it’s and they were young and and they were fitl looking but mace I had much confidence after our ice
Skating escapades that I thought wouldn’t it be a funny bit to go out on the ice and have like a a GoPro cam on my head yeah and see what it’s like to to actually scoop the ice during an NHL hockey game you know what I say great
Bit do it yep uh by the way that place is the scariest place to sing the national anthem I sang the national anthem at a Kings game and they make the place all dark and there’s this carpet that leads to the to Center ice and you
Walk out there and all of a sudden there’s spotlights on you and and you can’t and and you’re singing into the BL and I thought all the national anthems that was probably the most pressure packed but also came out the best it’s it’s scary out there Luke roboty by the
Way after I sang said never again L Luke Roba time bud yes now mace yeah what do you think about us practicing this year to be better next year where we can take Cappy down with a clothline on the ice uh I you know what I I would love to say
Yes but uh no okay you mean you survived this one when did you guys do this this was yesterday are you guys sore now Mason are you sore I’m not I’m not sore it’s interesting I was on the verge of falling the entire time yeah I know
Constantly make your leg strong right I mean skate yeah no doubt maybe you should keep doing it mace you think so from from the video maybe you should do this a little bit more do it with Cappy Capp like Michelle Quan out or he’s like Dan Janson out there I was thinking more
Like Brian boyano myself Brian boyano right wow yeah is he a swimmer or an ice skater he’s an ice skater you got the right guy okay good good good got the right guy okay yeah I mean you’re giving me Dan Jansen I’m taking Brian boano
Yeah know I think Brian Bano is a great call you know what I’m gonna do now I’m into ice skating I’m now into it so like this winter or at least like during the holiday I’m G to be up in Mammoth the Kings just like the Kings have the ice
Skating rink in LA Live yes they have a brand new ice skating rink in Mammoth oh wow nice I’m going to go ice skating well that’s nice I think you ice skate a little bit more than you’re letting on though yeah yeah no no ice skating why
Sandbag though you you were faking like you couldn’t stand at the beginning then the next thing you know I was like this DeMarco I was like robotic on the ice it’s very wet there’s puddles everywhere can I stand up am I am I able to like stand and feel confident yeah did you
Make a plan in the car I’m going to like pretend like I can’t skate And then I hit like a a big move no I don’t think so I don’t think man I think I think what happened is I was like I don’t know
I’m not sure and then I was like o I’m comfortable out here yeah no that’s not the way it went down you’re like I’m faking I’m faking I’m faking now I’m away everybody I was worried about Morales that’s why I held on to the side
Really I really was yeah that wall I did desperately we wanted him on that wall want him on that wall we need him on that wall exactly exactly right so what do you guys got cooking tonight of yam uh it’s a great game it’s going to be a thriller Raiders and Chargers I
Mean when those two get together boy this year how about that huh this game is so weird tonight this game used to not just be a game yeah right it used to be a week a thing you know Chargers Raiders week you know San Diego versus Oakland there were so many great
Historic moment moment in this rivalry and now we find ourselves tonight on Prime Time with a quarterback who was a fifth round draft choice who’s a rookie and a quarterback that had an incredible college career the Chargers this guy he had won like 40 some odd games in his
Career four national championships at North Dakota State sck Easton stick guy’s a winner yeah but he’s never played and now it’s Prime Time Thursday night yeah and Uncle Big Al gotta got to call this mishigan you know what I say what a fortunate moment we find ourselves in WoW exactly right
Very fortunate very for by the way John yesterday uh last night before we headed over to the Kings game we sat in the conference room there at the station and watched the end of the Lakers G but we heard your play-by-play and it was fantastic telling the story of the
Almost complete collapse you were great you and Michael were great and Mason you would be proud of me I used collaps two syllables collaps instead of collaps yeah yeah because it was was a collapse ma well they gave up 45 points in the that’s the worst quarter they’ve had
This year right well they were up 20 at the start of the fourth and with 10 seconds left they were up by one yeah it was it was crazy but John we were watching it on the screen we were listening to it on the radio and I also
Love that you and Michael have some strong disagreements during the broadcast there was a point where you were suggesting and I’m trying to remember who’s on the free throw line that he missed wmy yeah I thought because here’s here was my thought Cappy all right so it was it was 117 115 okay
When Bama gets fouled there’s like 10 seconds to go maybe eight seconds and he misses the first free throw all right so now they can’t catch him with the free throw and I thought if it were me I would have missed the second free throw
Because I need the ball I’m down by two and I can only get one point if I make the free throw and Michael was adamant no you make the free throw and then you play the foul game but that never works then the other team just goes down and
Makes two free throws and you lose and that’s exactly what happened so I would have if I was wiim Bama I would have missed on purpose so last night I had Lakers minus two and a half with mythical money that last free throw from Tori and Prince is what got me the win
Wow you know that reminds me I’m playing the Raiders tonight I’m taking the Raiders to cover the three are you tonight yeah uh you know what it also reminds me of prize picks the last time we were here Cappy yep was the prickly pear incident oh oh that’s right and
That makes me feel a little prickly today myself are you a little prickly a little prickly yeah did that ever did that ever get resolved in anyway we’re just moving on from it it was an it was an interesting moment I I was just stunned when it happened well I think it
Was resolved I think it was resolved yeah we moved on because I think that that now no I got Cappy’s back that’s the bottom line I got C’s back we got back the same segment though is now well we love Michelle smallman part of our ESPN Radio Mich small on Sportsman like
Weekday 6 10 a.m. right so somebody did something somewhere I don’t know who that is well you know what you know what the moral of that story is Mace yeah never go against the family oh yeah yeah no I had Cappy’s back through that whole thing yes you did so um yeah so
We did you see the did you see the Otani press conference what did you see what the dog’s name is no what is it it’s uh deine which translates at as decoy decoy like Toronto was a big decoy decoy a Big deu decup Pine Deco Deco yes I don’t believe for

Why why are you so skeptical don’t get me wrong I like the skepticism his dog’s name is like Dodger or something like that and he didn’t want people to know why have you been on your phone for the last three minutes cppy I’m placing a wager I feel like we’re working with
Sedo I’m a wager I got to have I got the Raiders tonight that’s the one thing I learned from shano he he didn’t look up from his phone no I got entire show moral I swear to you I once where he did not look up from his
Phone for 3 and a half hours all together right that day it was one of the most spectacular performances by a host I’ve ever seen he talked he answered all my questions he never made eye contact he just looked at his phone the whole time wow well I am taking the
Raiders tonight I I think the Raiders are going to cover the three points tonight you hope you always bet against the Chargers so true true um but I’ve been using a different I’ve been kind of using a handicapping service here recently really and so yes Like A Tout
Uh kind of like a tout sort of yeah like yeah it’s like a 900 number you call or something 900 no no not a 900 number those I’ve got the stone cold walks walks walks well there used to be those guys on Sunday mornings that would have
Those T shows AES and there and and there was this one guy I used to remember every weekend his name was th finer the fourth th finer so th Stu finer the source that was his name stuer the source he’s say I’m th finer the Thor right no that’s what that’s what he
Did it was it was hilarious in fact Jim you’re I it feels like you’re mocking him it feels like you’re mocking him God uh Jim Lampley actually did a an HBO real sports report on all these touts right and this guy Stu finer The Source that’s what he sounded like th fine of
The Thor so wait a minute Cappy Cappy but tell us about The Tout you’re using now yeah so The Tout I’m using now I don’t even know I’d Call Him A Tout he’s just the uh he’s the medical research he decides which team is significantly more
Or less healthy really so then I and then I follow that and so his score tonight based on all his algorithm is is that the Raiders should be favored by nine so if the Raiders theoretically should be favored by nine but you’re you’re only having to give up three I’m
Going to take the Raiders to cover the three so am I give me another $50,000 mythical dollars on the Raiders yes yes the three ma is coming for me I I’m trying to catch him in mythical money right now and you sold me the fact that you’ve got a health science guy who
Knows the health of the teams and you say the Raiders are healthier than the CH I’m all in on Cappy’s tout DeMarco the Chargers charers to me they that the second part of that Broncos Chargers game I think the Chargers have thrown in the towel what do you think when do you
Think they fire Staley after right after the season yeah uh you think he makes it to the end of the year oh yeah I I do because the as Spanos don’t want to pay two coach yeah and what’s and honest I what’s the point DeMarco what’s the if
You’re five and eight you’re going nowhere you don’t you’re starting quack do if you’re going to do it you might as well do it and send that message now that you’re starting over you might as well do that there’s a guy that described something called a dead coach
Bounce do you know have you ever heard that expression the Raiders got it this year the Raiders Antonio Antonio Pierce got a dead coach bounce got a dead you won too I’ll tell you this there is nothing worse than getting your coach fired uh I remember when we got rich
Brooks fired and it it sucked it made you feel less than as an athlete so I believe in it yeah you do go out and play great for that guy but it doesn’t last very long I helped get two coaches fired while I was in college yeah did
You really two sucks if you would have made a few more field goals cap maybe they’d still be on the gig you know seriously it was it was that and a variety of other things that I did and said whatever else all right well uh we’re going to be actually I don’t know
