People were coming after me.

He'll never say yes to that.

I said, no, no, no.

Life, baseball, family, whatever reason that you say no to something.

Right around the corner is a reason you might say yes.

And I'd probably go there.

There are a couple of other ways I can go, including a starting pitcher.

I think Scooble's going to be interesting, although I get nervous when everybody's telling me about this miracle surgery.

Do you remember the movie The Jerk?

Yes.

okay, remember the glasses, and then, oh, these are the greatest things ever.

Oh, look, your glasses don't.

And then everybody's cross-eyed.

I just read something from Dallas Braden talking about how this is going to change baseball and humanity, and we're going to all get along better because of this surgery that Tarek Skubal had.

And shouldn't we just wait to see him pitch and maybe wait until next year?

He's a free agent, and everybody who's telling me how great this is sounds like they work for Scott Boras.

How do you know this is going to be great?

Like the first time, you know, Chuck Yeager is the ballsiest man in the history of America because they told him, you're probably going to blow up.
