Kasten-Gate 2019 | Episode 39 | Blue Heaven Podcast

Stan Kasten didn’t make any new friends after his comments at Dodgers Fan Fest last weekend… but perhaps he wasn’t that far off?

While everyone in Dodgers Nation is still set on Bryce Harper as the only suitable prize for the off-season, the team has still handed out the highest priced contract to a free agent player in AJ Pollock. Moreover, they’ve also handed out one of highest contracts to a pitcher (Joe Kelly) this off-season.

With that said, Clint believes that front office has done well to stay true to their word from the start — spend early, and build the team from the minor leagues while supplementing with quality veterans.

Fan Fest

In the next segment, Clint relieves his nightmare at Fan Fest, while Brook regales us with his media coverage. Chats with Andrew Friedman and Dave Roberts painted a picture of a determined bunch heading into the new season. We welcome Clint Evans (@DiamondHoggers) to chat about the Dodgers’ plan for Cody Bellinger, and wonder what could be next for Alex Verdugo.

Dave Roberts also lays out a plan for second base, and Andrew Friedman’s comments sparked concern toward Corey Seager’s status.
