So yeah, I really, it was great.

It was obviously you also have like Alex Bregman coming in three time all star like two time World Series champ, someone who brings in a ton of postseason experience, which is huge, but at the same time, like,

Craig said something to me that really stuck out to me.

He was like, this team's very like baseball-y.

Like they love like the nitty gritty.

And obviously Alex Bregman, everything that I've heard about him, he's such a student of the game.

And so he's someone that wants to pass down like all this experience and wisdom onto like a player like PCA.

I mean, we were with the Cubs.

I spent two days with the Sox, two days with the Cubs.

I mean, day one there, like Bregman was already in the clubhouse.

and obviously hearing PCA talk about how much he's helped him even just through their conversations about when he steps into the box, his mindset, his swing, getting his on-base percentage back up.

Like Alex Bregman, that's the type of player you also get.

Not only can he perform well on the field, offensively, defensively too, but you're getting someone that all these younger players, like even a Matt Shaw, right?

You should pick his brain because he's going to bring in a ton of great knowledge and experience.

Yeah, I mean, obviously Matthew Boyd, an all-star year last year as well.

Again, I asked him how was the offseason because I'm always curious to know how guys kind of decompress after this season.

And what did he say?

He was like, he's got a lot of kiddos.

So he just was really full on parent mode.

I think some of his kids play basketball too.
