Mike said, it's the same way with my career.
He said, I'm in my 16th year.
And it's gone by so fast.
And so I need to slow it down and enjoy every day.
And that's what he's done so far this year.
He's got an OPS of 1,000.
That home run last night was his 11th.
And I know people who are on baseball love the fact that he's back to being a great player.
During that recent series between the Yankees and the Angels, he and Aaron Judge were texting each other after every game, sort of cajoling each other competitively.
I know Aaron well enough to know he loves seeing Mike Trout back to being a preeminent player.
Well, it was interesting because I have never seen a managerial change that was as respectful as what we saw with Rob Thompson.
It wasn't the Red Sox where you got palace intrigue and Game of Thrones and the whole thing.
It was David Dombrowski, head of baseball operations, came out and said, look, we need a change of voice, just as we did when we brought Rob Thompson in.
Now he goes out and Don Mattingly comes in.
It's so interesting because I think that Don and Rob are very similar in personality.
but maybe, you know, the, the Phillies just getting past that question, you know, as opposed to idiots like me coming up every day and saying, you know, what do you think of Rob Thompson might get fired?
Do you think this will be the week?
Do you think this will be the time like that?
That balloon has been burst.
And then you bring in Don who's got 12 years of experience managing in the big leagues.
