How are you today?
Hey, Pop.
Great to talk to you, man.
Greetings from Cincinnati.
Yes.
The first question is, what's the weather like?
Because it's been raining a lot here.
I have no idea what it's like in Cincinnati.
I hope.
All right.
I want to ask you one question before Austin will ask you a follow-up to this, but it's about O'Neal Cruz.
I know that he's a lightning rod for criticism, of course, because of some of the things that have happened, especially the worst-case scenario for him, Jason, I thought was on the first game of all things, Skeens pitching in New York, big market, and then it's on national television for the first time, and that first inning happens.
So that didn't do him any help.
But he's in there for his bat.
And what we saw last night is another indication of why he's so intriguing as a player and why he has to play.
People want to immediately bench him at times.
There's three games into the season.
So talk about just his mindset now, especially after hitting those two home runs last night.
But I think people will be more willing to understand if he has โ he's a shortstop who's been moved to center field.
And I want to see exactly what you said, just awareness and engagement more, I guess is the word I'm looking for, Jason.
