Yeah, to repeat your motion, to repeat your pitches, to always look the same out there, and to always have that demeanor to never panic.

And I think that's what schemes is...

kind of fallen into there's this big plethora of big league pitchers and we've gotten to the point now where these starters don't have to go as long where I see he's somebody that's going to go long into these games so he's kind of like an old school pitcher in this thing he kind of he does doesn't he look that way yeah he sounds that way too

Right, and it's kind of confusing because they've kind of kept him at bay with his innings at the beginning, but now it's go time.

And he's that guy, and I feel like that he's a guy that will consistently repeat.

And I'm just in amazement when I watch him, honestly.

He's the best pitcher in baseball.

What he can do, all the different pitches, the ability to throw inside the right-handers as a right-hander.

A lot of these lost arts, a lot of guys are just going out there for four or five innings, throwing as hard as they can and getting out of there.

Not with all seven because the difference between a changeup and a splinker and a two-seamer and his fastball, they're all moving the same way.

I'll talk to my son at Virginia Tech about the analytics of it, and he's like, Dad, you realize his analytics on that two-seamer are ridiculous that he's able to do that, and then he's throwing the changeup off of it or the four-seam off of it.

I think it's going to be Ashcraft, actually.

Yeah, I think he's... Again, my mental side of me playing goes into this, too.

Kind of the guy nobody's talking about right now, right?

He's the other one.

Everybody else has...

And Majinski's kind of like the lightning in a bottle guy, right?

If it doesn't work out, he goes back to the pen.

He's the long man, whatever.

So he's the kind of guy that all of a sudden, like, hey, it's time for Jared Jones to come back.
