If there's

You know, if it's a tie game or a one-run game and there's guys on second and third and we can pitch around, he's going to first base.

So, you know, a lot of that is when you're the guy that everybody, the onus of everybody's attention falls on.

and the offense is struggling, that's when you start to see guys in the middle of the lineup really start to press, really start to expand the zone.

And I think whenever you get in those streaks, you really have to be even more patient and really keyhole and just take your walks and allow the guys behind you to get you around the bases and knock you in.

I can see that, but there's also a saying amongst Latin players, you ain't walking yourself off the island.

You're not walking off the island.

So there's two ways to do it.

I just believe that having been in some offenses that have, you know,

let's face it, struggle for runs.

You know, when you're in those streaks where you're scoring one, two, maybe three runs a game for about 10 games, you know that the onus of the offense falls on you, and it's very easy to get out of your comfort zone whenever you're going through one of those streaks.

That's a great question.

And one that I've answered many times, you know, through the first part of the season, it's just it was a seamless transition.

You know, Walt will tell you whenever he managed in Colorado, it was the better part of a half a year before he kind of got to know his team, like what situations I can put guys in, what situations I can't put guys in, you know, the

the ironing out of the pecking order in the bullpen, you know, I mean everyday lineups all these things who are my guys that can play multiple positions who allows me to be to be versatile within my lineup, you know, and and

This was a seamless transition because he's been with this ball club underneath Schnitt for eight years.

You know, he hit the ground running in spring training.

He basically knew who the top of his rotation was going to be.

Yes, there were a few there in the, you know, in the bottom of the rotation that had to get ironed out.

He knew who was going to be at the end of the bullpen.
