We're going to go out there and we're going to get real dudes, and they did.
O'Hearn been on good teams.
Lau been on a World Series team.
Ozuna been on great teams.
Cardinals and Braves.
Guys with real baseball cards.
That you didn't have to just try to project.
Maybe they could be good.

The Royals did it with wit.
They signed him to do a crazy deal, too.

I don't know off the top of my head, but I would assume he did because he's a great player with tons of upside and an unbelievably high future.
