I don't know if like, and obviously you went out and signed David Price, I think with a seven year deal, right?

I mean, so it was, and he was in his thirties.

It is what it is.

You got to get the guy, but how do you view that?

Like, how do you view when that was said to where they've landed now?

Is there any difference in the perception of pitchers, I guess?

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's funny, I just did a radio interview earlier today, and they're like, oh, this is a John Henry signing because this isn't the type of pitcher that Breslow likes.

He's not the velocity, big extension guy.

I'm like, well, let's not forget, they're no dummies.

They understand the best analytic is out.

I think that that's where people get, yeah, they may like a certain type of pitcher, but it's not like, hey, you aren't tall enough.

We're not going to sign you.

I mean, Sonny Gray is another example.

He's not tall.

Yeah.

So as we sit here in mid-January, I classify this offseason as a bad walk-in song for a reliever, which is you get all, you know, it's just poorly timed.

I think that even when signings and trades happen now, people are so exhausted, like you've taken 20% off the enthusiasm.

It is what it is.
