They brought in a lot of heavy machinery, and they're getting that going, too.

So there could be some limited parking situations going on.

But the NFL draft will be here shortly.

We'll be anxious to see how they do it.

The NFL spends a lot of money on these things, and I bet that's going to be a fantastic three days starting on April the 23rd.

I didn't expect Jarrett Triolo, even at the beginning of the season, to be that big of an offensive –

springboard guy for them he was what he was he's a defensive guy he's won a gold glove in that department as a utility guy that's what he is he's better off the bench can he help you in a pinch hitting role yeah sure here and there but the best option is to have Griffin that's why I wanted him at the start of the season he was your best option going into the season if truly their claim is we want to win now we have to get to the playoffs your best options are your best options I think the realization started to set in he's your still your best option yeah

No matter who plays, you know, Gonzalez is not a shortstop.

I'll ride with him at third because of his bat right now.

But, you know, ultimately these guys are kind of platoon guys.

You know, Gonzalez can play second as well.

They can move people around.

But Connor Griffin's got to be your everyday shortstop.

To me, you know what he is.

Again, you identify, you know him, you've seen him the entire six weeks of spring training.

You saw what he did last year from single A to double A. I don't think you needed to see anything in triple A. And once they made that decision, that's where I would agree with you.

Then I'm thinking they're going to have to see a month of this

But no, after 14 at-bats, it was good.

I just think they finally realized that they need him up here to be part of what should be a really interesting lineup for them moving forward.

He brought that up too.
