Craig Breslow

Thanks, everybody.

Thank you.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I remember we had conversations the off-season of 23 to 24 about crochet, and at the trade deadline about crochet, and then obviously last off-season.

So your first off-season, your first, okay.

I think...

What I remember is this was like right around the time where it started to feel real, where we started to agree on some of the big pieces and move toward, okay, who was the second, who was the third, who was the fourth piece?

And we had some conversations in person.

We also left here and I can remember going back and forth over text when I would put my daughter to sleep and I would sit in the chair next to her and couldn't really speak on the phone because I would keep her up and we would just text back and forth.

This is after the GMA.

This is after the GMA.

Like, what about this guy?

What about that guy?

You know.

Well, would you include him?

No, but I think this is dead.

And it would be a couple days later, and then we would spark it up again.

So there were nearly infinite permutations of this deal that went back and forth.

How much did it change?

A fair amount early on.
