Like, they have to turn it around right now.
So with Aaron Judge, the Yankees, you know, they expect he's going to play again this year, but they have no idea exactly when that's going to be.
Maybe it's, you know, late August, early September, and they don't know how he's going to be when he comes back and how he's going to hold up.
They know he's not going to be completely healed when he comes back.
So they'll just try to upgrade the team and try to play well enough to get into the playoffs, and then they'll see what they get with Judge when he returns.
I think the same situation is with Giancarlo Stanton, their DH.
And with Otani, the other day when we talked to Dave Roberts, the Dodgers manager, we had the Dodgers on TV on Monday night.
He told us that Otani is likely to throw a bullpen session this weekend.
and then he might pitch two or three weeks after that.
This is classic Dodgers.
They're slow playing their injuries.
They're doing it now with Blake Snell, Tyler Glasnow, now Shohei Otani, because the message is we want to make sure you're right in October, but you are 100% right.
I think it completely opens up the NL MVP conversation because Otani's preeminence is based on the fact that he's a two-way player.
We don't know if he's going to be able to be that as he goes forward.
And Pete Crow Armstrong of the Chicago Cubs is a great two-way player.
His two-way being offense and defense.
You know, he's got 21 homers, 25 steals.
He's on a pace to get on base more than 250 times this year.
Uh, and, uh, it, uh, you know, he also is tied for the major league lead and outs above average, a great defensive metric.
Craig counsels told me he's the best defensive player in baseball.
