You just hope that they have a long-lasting career that is not interrupted by some sort of injury or anything like that because you really want to see them just explode on the scene and take over.

So that was really quite the performance, even though it was only four innings for Nolan McClain.

I mean, he's basically unhittable at the point.

I think both teams do.

I really do.

I think both teams are going to be fine.

They have more than enough starting pitching.

They each have about eight starting pitchers, and we all know that it's going to be at least eight to ten that are going to end up taking them out at some point.

So it's a long season.

It's an arduous season.

But, again, I just think that what Nolan McCollum did yesterday was great, and he's off to a flying start.

And he's going to be around those other American pitchers during this World Baseball Classic, which is going to be great.

Sure.

Just being exposed to Paul Skeens is going to just be great for him.

Because he's been here a little bit longer.

And by the way, in Pittsburgh last night, Jack Hughes received a standing ovation.

Yeah.

Which was awesome to watch and awesome to see.

And he's the American Golden Boy at the moment.
