Arguably the most versatile member of the Los Angeles Dodgers pitching staff, Ross Stripling is equally diverse off the field. Driven to invest his signing bonus wisely and later with plenty of time on his hands after undergoing Tommy John surgery, Stripling became a licensed stock broker.
Now he’s added another feather to his cap: podcast host. The “The Big Swing Podcast” spawned from Stripling’s friend, Cooper Surles, previously hosting a podcast. When Surles’ co-host was no longer able to keep up with the show, it led to conversations with Stripling.
“We had always kind of talked about it, but the thing is I’d never given podcasts much of a chance,” Stripling told DodgerBlue.
