And the Yankees really have no idea, uh, you know, because his injury is a stress fracture, uh, uh if he's gonna be able to to handle the day to day regiment of playing.

playing baseball when he comes back.

They don't know what he's gonna do offensively.

They don't know what he's uh you know how he's gonna handle that uh as he goes through October.

But I mean, geez, i it's been demonstrated whenever he's out on the Yankees lineup, they are a bad team, bad offensive team, and when he's in the lineup they're good.

And even if he's not as uh productive as he is, you know, typically, I think just his mere presence probably will affect

the other players in lineup.

I think they'll probably get a lot of feedback from him and how he's feeling.

Uh uh and yeah, that's always an option, especially with Giancarlo Stanton, you know, lost indefinitely because he restrained another calf.

I mean the question, you know, two months ago was how do you fit these guys in if Judge has to get some days at D H.

But now it makes it more simple.

I will say every time I've asked that question, what I get back is they anticipate that he's

gonna be able to play right field.

That doesn't mean that can't change or they might, as you say, take some stress off him by putting him at D H.

It's such a funny relationship, Tony, and it's different than any other relationship I know of in baseball where basically the team the player dictates to the team what he wants to do.

And I do wonder uh i if the Dodgers

we're running this thing if they would just go to him and say, you know what?

We've got four starters.

We've got Derek Scubel, uh, Yamamoto, Glasnell, Blake Snell.

We're good on the pitching side.
