So for him to run into one and put a really nice swing on that ball, go opposite field, great start.
Yeah.
I agree with you, Jeff, that, you know, in spring training, I wasn't thinking Charles McAdoo is going to be up in, in any sort of rush.
Then things went the way they went and they just needed that right-hand hitting infielder.
And so the opportunity emerges for him and they needed offense specifically.
Like,
If they were in an alternate universe and they're hitting, everyone's healthy, they're producing, the runs are there, and they need an infielder, well, maybe you go to Josh Kasovich because at that point he can give you the defense and you're more concerned about keeping runs off the board.
But the Jays seemingly are just trying to find any way to add offense and didn't really work with Lenin Sosa before he hit the injured list.
Didn't work with David Schneider.
maybe it can work with Charles McAdoo.
So I think that's part of it too.
But yeah, if we were to dial the clock back a few months, certainly wasn't someone that I was counting on as, oh, we're definitely going to see this guy early in the season.
Uh, we should learn more tomorrow, but as of now, I think it's slated to be soon, like potentially within this week.
Uh, so maybe by the weekend.
Um, yeah, I'm not sure exactly, but that's, you know, it's been a couple months now, so hopefully he can get back there and get things rolling.
Well, yeah, I mean, that's definitely just came out of nowhere.
And at first, you see the camera cut to John Schneider.
I thought he was going out to the mound.
Then it's like, oh, no, he's got his eyes even further.
He's going out to right field.
