Yeah, that's definitely true.
Definitely true.
I think that's being proven out right now a little bit in the marketplace.
I think the teams that are...
I mean, you've seen the money's been pretty good for the guys that have gotten it.
But usually it's a team that's been aggressive.
There's been usually other teams in the mix that were more principled, I guess, but they don't get the players.
I mean, it just seems like the previous year – the previous years, the way that however the previous year ended really informs the level of desperation the next year or how emboldened they're going to be.
Like, the Blue Jays are, what, three inches away from winning the World Series, and now they're going for it.
Like, they're obviously –
I don't think they're done yet.
You know what I mean?
They've already done quite a few things.
And then on the other side, like the Orioles, a little embarrassed from last year, but they're in a hunt to get right back.
Now they're doing some things.
So I think sometimes you can get lulled to sleep a little bit by some success that maybe is a little bit more fragile than you realize, and teams need to act on that a little bit right now.
I mean, especially, I look at like the AL East, obviously that's a division near and dear to both of our hearts.
That's going to be a monster this year.
Yeah, I mean, people are fired up.
I mean, shoot, on my show, I got like 40% Canadians, basically.
