Here we are with the WrestleMania style intro.

You know what's happening in Vegas this weekend.

I thought you'd at least be happy with the wrestling side of it.

We were just in Vegas.

Our timing is off.

Unbelievable.

We were at Circa in the meantime, AJ, we get some, we get some good news.

I feel like at least as far as a pitcher is concerned, I haven't been this excited about the white socks calling up a prospect.

I want to say for me, since Michael Kopech, you know, we get the news about Noah Schultz coming up local guy, a big name prospect, even when he was drafted by the socks, you know, how do you feel about them doing this given their record and their performance so far this year?

Yeah, I mean, it's antithetical to convention, I think, AJ, to the point of extreme.

And that's what it is.

You know, the Rays are probably the best example of a good team.

They kind of pioneered the opener concept.

But, you know, when Taylor's out there for stretches like three out of four games, you hear he's going again.

Yesterday, Sox ended up using nine pitchers, as you mentioned, because of the injury to Cannon.

This isn't even how you draw it up when you're trying to be creative.

Well, and I think that that's it, too, is we feel like the Sox lineup looked pretty good to start as we saw.

That was before everybody made adjustments, as you mentioned.

But Murakama really added some pop, at least for the lack of on base.

There was slugging, as we saw, you know, Colson Montgomery, a huge part of that.
