What's it like to walk into a new clubhouse and see a fog machine, a Segway, and a teammate in a bear suit? For veteran pitcher Jason Vargas, it was his first taste of the wild energy that defined the Kansas City Royals. In this episode, Vargas shares how that group of "dogs" evolved from a fun-loving team to a contender, and the role he played as a veteran leader in shaping that winning culture. Vargas reflects on his own baseball upbringing, from learning the "right way to play" from his high school coach dad to embracing the legendary "dirtbag culture" at Long Beach State alongside teammates like Jered Weaver. He takes that same mentality to the golf course, sharing unbelievable stories of setting up tee times at the world's best courses and becoming a founding member of Mike Trout's exclusive "Trout National". He even tells the incredible story of piping a perfect drive right in front of a watching Tiger Woods. Now, Vargas brings his lifetime of baseball knowledge to the next generation, coaching his son's youth team. He gives his unfiltered take on the current state of amateur travel ball, the challenge of teaching team fundamentals in an era of individual showcases, and the delicate balance of being both a father and a coach on the field.-------------------------HostsEric Hosmer / @hosmer305Mike Moustakas /@moosetacos8Peter Moylan / @petermoylanJustin Su'a / @justinsuaInteract with the Diggin' Deep Crew on:Instagram / Facebook / Twitter / TikTokAdvertising & Partnership inquiries: diggindeep@moonballmedia.coma MoonBall Media Podcast
