My dad's pretty much the same way.

So I guess that comes from, you know, him.

So, yeah.

Uh, yeah, I loved, I loved to watch, you know, Jacob DeGrom back then.

And then, uh, Kevin Gosman's always fun to watch, but also, you know, Trevor Rogers being a Carlsbad guy.

So look up to them.

So yeah.

It was an easy decision for me.

I always thought Blue Jays have the best facility in baseball and all the resources behind that.

And I always thought if I got hurt, I'm already there and they probably have the more resources to get me healthy and back where I need to be.

So that was pretty much behind my thought process and it kind of worked out.

You know, it's really cool, especially coming back from injury.

It's really good to see that.

It gives you a lot of confidence, you know, but I really just try to like focus on not pretty much that stuff, but just doing my thing.

And I feel like all the good things will come if I just focus on myself and working on that stuff.

Yeah, I'd say for sure, you know, there's always a little bit of competition inside everybody.

So it's fun to do that, especially pitching after Daniel Guerra throwing 10Ks every game.

So it's fun to try to outdo that a little bit.

But yeah.

Yeah, they're disgusting out there.
