you approach this upcoming spring training and to hope to have the opportunity this year right it's it's definitely some motivation just being around here uh just seeing everyone and getting to work with all the guys but uh yeah it definitely gets you it a little bit just to get out of it yeah obviously being here here just just at this Stadium honestly looking around it's it's pretty cool and just pring yourself playing here one day and just kind of being around the guys to seeing how they operate seeing what they do is just kind of definitely gets people excited for sure and dick last year you started at Double A I promoted a triaa just what kind of was that last year looking like for you as you contined to evolve and work your way to the big things yeah it was my first full year with the Dodgers organization so obviously trying to still kind of get acclimated but still just kind of getting getting comforable with everything and just kind of do what I did and just try to do well and slowly move up but yeah and Hunter last year during spring training we saw you get a lot of work with all the pictures considering Smith and Austin were away with WC teams what was I like working with the guys starting to really build such strong foundations and relationships with that to prepare you for what to come right it it definitely helped out and I think in the future I do may you this year definitely help uh just being comfortable knowing what they like how they operate that so with today what are you guys looking forward to most because now you handled your media you still got a little bit more but with all of the excitement whether it's autographs things like that what are you looking forward to um I think just being around you know seeing all the fans uh we got some work and then Foundation that was good being involved and uh meeting yeah I think we're about to go after this about to go run or hang out with some kids that are running the bases so it's probably going to be pretty high energy energetic and it's probably going to be fun time hanging out with them over there yeah and getting on that feel so that'll be fun too of course all right guys thank you so much we have some more media now leg F arms run you to change it but what you think the biggest key for you to take the next step um honestly honestly for me uh just kind of just kind of do what I do I guess uh just stick with what I do well whether that's like my fast J or whatever was working that day and just kind of have the confidence is my pitches to just keep going out there stay consistent just to do well overall yeah good chance of play this season thought about that and you looking forward most when it comes to making thatbut is that yeah um well actually see uh I suffered a little bit of an injury so little a little bit of a setback but still obviously optimistic and everything's going well thus far so just staying optimistic and hope we can get out here as soon as possible and hun you absolutely R last season what did you learn last year that you're taking into this year to have that same level of success right so uh during spring I was kind of working on a little swing change so just kind of staying consistent with my routine and that and uh just keep going keep working with the pitchers building uh good relationships with them so and the Dodgers have one of the best catch might be the best catch of baseball Co SP what impresses you most about Smitty uh just his demeanor and how he handles everything on the field you know he's kind of uh not like high energy you know but uh he he gets the job done he works well with the pitchers and he's a outstanding hitter so a quick 20 your Super Bowl pitch oh man uh I'm going to go I'm going to go
