Yeah, selling out to win in 2026 means selling my farm.

It doesn't mean plucking guys off of my major league roster that I expect to be big contributors in 2026.

But it's pretty much a dead issue.

School's not getting traded unless the Tigers are out of it at the deadline, and maybe they move him then.

And he's going to free agency anyway as a Scott Boris guy, and I think he's going to command north of $400 million.

I think this is one of those rare guys.

You saw where the market was this year, but I think he's one of those rare guys that he's such a supreme talent that there will be multiple bidders out there.

There will be multiple bidders with long-term contracts out there for him.

And yeah, I know somebody's saying right now, who's going to the Dodgers?

Eh, he goes to the Dodgers.

And we'll get Paul Skeens.

I know Livvy Dunn posted a picture of Paul sitting next to Aaron Judge at the Writers Award dinner last night.

One can dream, right?

One can dream.
