Well, I've always thought their pitching rotation is always going to keep them somewhere around 500 all year.

And Rick Banning, who I used to work with when I was at Fox Sports, would look at me like every day, and he goes, you're going to win 62, you're going to lose 62.

It's what you do with the refs.

And I do think that that's kind of been the mantra of the organization for, you know, two decades now, three decades.

So they've been able to do that.

Chase the Lauder has been good.

Travis Pazana, the number one overall pick from a few years ago.

You know, like we're watching you in Kansas City going on.

They got a guy that they drafted after Pazana, and he's playing.

What are we doing wrong here?

And then it looks like they made the right call on when to bring Pazana up.

You know, it's been fun watching these young guys play.

They're scoring more runs than I think that most of us thought they would.

That may level off at some point, but the starting pitching has been consistent.

They've been the only team in Major League Baseball, I believe so, that has only used five pitchers in their rotation consistently, not had to bring in a sixth pitcher.

So, you know, they're doing it.

I think Steven Vogt's a really, really good manager.

You know, when you lose, you know, Terry Francona, you're like, how are they going to get better than that?

And

I'm not saying that he's better than Tito, but he has done an outstanding job in his infancy of his career here in Cleveland.
