When he retires I hope he becomes a coach for the Dodgers. Not only is he a local boy (Pasadena) but he is a true gamer. I'd like to see his old school baseball mentality & approach rub off on future Dodger rookies coming up to the bigs

I hope so too. He is such a student of the game in an age where launch angles and launch speed and analytics rule all, it’s amazing to see Dad and the little things he does that are lost on younger players.

Dad switched him to a left handed hitter so he wouldn’t have to go after the ball as much. Sometimes it works out to be lazy.

I had to watch the video to realize you meant Utley's Dad and werent just referring to Utley as Dad.

clearly the exception to the rule! haha

That is awesome.

Utley's soul patch and beanie made him look like a member of U2. I'm glad he left his True Religions in 2008.

That interview was a real home run!

Thank you for this! I caught the last half and was bummed I didn't get to see the whole thing.

That last story is so damn amazing.

I really hope he sticks around in the organization after he retires. Maybe not immediately, but we love him, the players love him, and he loves it here. Plus, it's close to home.

Can we keep him forever?
I have a good feeling he is going to stick around as a coach once he retires.
Dude would be an awesome coach. Definutely has the demeanor and knowledge
I wouldn't mind him taking over a minor league team as a manager.
Phils fan here. If hes a coach, let the Phils have him haha. Dave roberts is a great manager. Our manager is terrible, lol let us have this one
Right when I thought I couldn't love him more.
